Fails to import correctly Topaz VAI generated mp4 (both AVC and HEVC)

andreas-georgiou wrote on 8/20/2025, 10:22 AM

When importing Topaz Video AI generated MP4 either H264 (AVC) or H265 (HEVC) Vegas pro 22 (B250) reads the frame rate as 12,800.00 and as such when added to timeline only adds the first few seconds. see attached screengrabs

Also a template of 240fps is somehow loaded, complete mess preventing editing Topaz VAI V 6.2.2 2025 generated files.

any thoughts help?

Please provide a Media Info readout of some of this media which Vegas is having problems importing.

What does Mediainfo say about those MP4's?

Use Media Info program. Topaz generates such rubbish files.

1. Run VirtualDub in copy mode – it should help.
2. Use ProRes in Topaz – but it seems to have bugs too.
3. It's generally best to export to FFV1 in Topaz and recompress to ProRes/H26x in ffmpeg.

@andreas-georgiou

The Picel aspect ratio is not correct. I should be 1,0 for progressive videos.
