It's a 29 second file.

So when you drag and drop it onto the Vegas timeline you get nothing? No Image or sound? I am not following what you need.

You should be able to drag and drop the file to the Vegas timeline, select the range you want to render, and "render as" Sony AVC.mp4. You can pick an AVC profile that matches the format of your source media.

When I try to move the file into SV 13 I just get a circle with a line through it. It does play through Quicktime though.

Provide your complete source properties using MediaInfo from Sourceforge.

But you already know that, because we've covered this ground before:

Where did the file originally come from?

I've updated my Vegas from 9 to 13. It did work after the upgrade with the other media. This is new media and won't open. So, yes this has happened before, but it s little different.

The new file is a Shutter Stock file

While it's a ProRes file which Vegas can normally handle, I noticed the line that says Chroma subsampling : 4:4:4. Hopefully someone else can confirm it but I don't think that Vegas can handle a 4:4:4 file.
You'll need to find a friend with a Mac or ask Shutterstock for a different file type that Vegas can handle.

I can confirm that Apple ProRes 4444 MOV files DO import into Vegas Pro 13.0 without any problems so that's not the cause.

Does the file play in the QuickTime Player? If so, purchase QuickTime Pro from Apple ($29.99 USD) and convert it to AVC/H.264 with QuickTime Pro.

jr, thanks for confirming that my suspicions were wrong. Hopefully the OP will take your advice and let us know how it works out for him.
