I'm trying to reverse this small clip from the Incident using Sony Vegas 7, but it just goes black when I do. Any ideas? :-/

I just had the same thing happen to me yesterday.

I had to finally render the original clip by itself and do the reversing on that and it finally worked.

happens to me too, with AVI files that dont have an audio track :S Dunno why it does it; its infuriating!! I do what you do Ais, render it itself and then load it. But remember to take off any effects or whatever before hand

I did try that, but when I rendered it as an AVI, it went black again, and when I tried rendering it as an MPEG, the quality decreased :-/

render it as a WMV file in the Default template, that should do it and the quality should be good

Yep, I do all of my re-rendering bits in WMV and they've always turned out with good quality for being rendered again in the vid itself.

You can also go into custom and leave off the audio and set the video up to best quality if the default settings for WMV don't give you satisfactory results.
