Hi,

I had the same problem when I first tried sony vegas.

The link I am putting below shows you step by step how to do it with screenshots of the converter program and contains the download link for the converter as well.

I tried this program and every episode now works perfectly in Sony Vegas. Only took about 10 seconds per an episode to convert - can't ask for more :0)

The link:

This is not my tutorial - it is just one I came across it a while back when trying to solve the avi problem.

Hope it works for you all just as well as it did for me :0)

I had to have DivX installed on my PC though before converting.

There may be other ways - this worked for me though.

I just noticed the screenimages on the link I sent you were not showing up. I knew there was another similar tutorial about on here at LVI somewhere so I found it for you.

It is part of a tutorial by Pauly (polarbear)

Shows how to use the same program. Go to this link:

This one has screenimages working to help you if you need it.

I swear, if I can get my hands on that Evil Internet Gremlin that keeps doing that...

*gets out larger bat and starts beating the Gremlin with it until it gets off of Kat's CM rank*

Ahem. Sorry. That was overly violent. *shamefaced* But I promise you, every time that Gremlin eats your CM rank, I'll bake you a new one!

O_O

*blink*

Well, that's something you don't see every day... violent!Ais... she's like a blue moon! I'm glad I was here to witness the majesty of such a rare occurrence *smish*
