Hiya all, perhaps someone can help me out. I've read a quite a few things on the forums but have yet to find anything referring to this.

I recently downloaded a trail version of Vegas Video 2.0h. I registered for the 7 day fully functional trial.

Thing is, i can't seem to import(drag) or open any of the files i save from ATI Multimedia Center that i captured in Mpeg, Mpg or Mpeg2 format...into Vegas Video 2.0h.

I can import Avi files into VV 2.0h but that's the only format from ATI MMC. And that is nasty because of the missing frames, etc. I want mpg mpeg or mpeg2 formats. =(

I did see something referring to if you register or whatever you get some certain files or something. So i registered for it, and i got an email with activation but no files. Everything works EXCEPT dropping in, or opening these files i previously mentioned.

-------------------------------------------------------
I get the message(when dragging)...
None of the files dropped on Vegas could be opened.
-------------------------------------------------------
and..i get the message(when trying to open)...
Warning: An Error occured while opening one or more files.

The File could not be opened. Make sure the file exists and that you have access to the file/folder.

File C:\My Documents\Shrek.mp2 could not be opened.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
