You see, .mp4 is a wrapper, but you haven't said what is inside that wrapper.

It uses a codec that isn't widely used (h263 with mono AAC).

Easiest solution is to convert in Handbrake before loading in Vegas.

Got the Handbrake app. What should be the settings? Not sure of what to do?

Musicvid wrote on 1/27/2021, 4:21 PM

General - Fast 720p preset

On the Video page select Constant frame rate

That's all you need to do.

That's also all the time I have today. Thanks.

Everything works now. Thank you so much Musicvid for your time and effort to help. Have a wonderful day.

Glad to hear it worked out. Feel free to mark one of the replies as the solution if you wish.

Sadly, that should NOT be the answer. Handbrake is a crutch that Magix leans on when their product fails.

It's sad that the ticket I placed with Magix did not resolve anything. Thanks to Musicvid and handbrake.
