MORGAN MJPEG 2000 codec

Sony Movie Studio always crashes when I try to place video clip encoded by Morgan MJPEG 2000 codec into the timeline. However, in trimmer it plays without any problem.
Does anybody have similar problems or managed to import such clips into Movie Studio?

As you can see, that post is old so you have to change the Search default of "Last 6 months" to "Any Date" if your Search doesn't turn up anything useful.

I was trying several options and found out that it started working when importing Morgan's files which were made with 5 LEVELS instead of 6. Number of layers can be higher (I tried 8 and it worked).
I get good quality with 4:2:2 coulour subsampling only when selecting irreversible compression option.

It is still a little unpredictable. For some clips I had to lower the number of levels to 4. If anyone is using this particular codec, please, let me know which settings work for you.
