Posts: 555 		I'm still having major headaches with codecs. I've managed to get the xvid one to work which gives great results but....none of my video stitch em together and add effects software will work with it. Any idiot proof instructions available to get something which I can get good results with yet still be able to postwork it?

Posts: 1988 		Having had codec issues in the past, I would recommend using the YUV codec since it will work with video editors - unfortunately, the file size is huge. You could always convert to the xvid movies to something like uncompressed avi files (using Any Video Convertor, excellent free conversion tool)...but they're even bigger. Compressed video isn't much liked by editors, is my experience. Hope that helps.

Posts: 555 		Thanks Ziggy...I've had a bit of a download session...and I'm trying out the Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 11, initial tests (made two clips using the xvid codec of good quality, put them through Vegas) and everything is definitely ticketyboo! So it looks as though I will be popping onto e-bay for a copy!

Posts: 1988 		Having won Sony Vegas Pro 11 in the Fusion competition, I can definitely recommend it - and it can edit with most files (even compressed ones) although you're still better to work with uncompressed stuff in general, I've found. Love my Vegas though - Adobe Premiere is just a bad memory!
