OBS Classic Recordings seem to corrupt in the Sony Vegas 14 timeline.

You can upload an original video file through DropBox or another server and post the link so that we can test it. A 10 second video is sufficient.

I could not successfully import your video file into either VP14 or VP17.

I successfully imported the video file into Pinnacle Studio 23 Ultimate, Playback was smooth on my computer (see sig).

It imported also into Hitfilm Pro 14 and VideoStudio Pro 2020, but timeline playback was choppy. In Pinnacle, it was smooth.

Try changing the audio format you are capturing.

Make sure that your OBS recordings are in Constant Frame Rate (CFR). Vegas Pro is not all that happy with Variable Frame Rate (VBR) - there's a long history on the forum about VBR v CFR.

If you remux the file it works fine. use something like avidemux , set video and audio to copy, and format output mp4

Make sure that your OBS recordings are in Constant Frame Rate (CFR).

Frame rate is variable, so if problems playing or sync issues, need to transcode

Guessing he can always use Handbrake to convert to Constant Frame Rate.

I just used Handbrake to convert to Constant 60fps and the file plays back fine in VP14. And the file size is way smaller.

Here is link to download the handbrake converted file:

I tested your file on Vegas Pro 14. The problem is due to the audio format you are using. Vegas does not recognize the AVC video codec with the mp3 audio codec in an mp4 container.

Solution: in OBS, change your audio format to AAC. Vegas usually recognizes files that use the AVC video codec with the AAC audio codec in a mp4 container.

If you have a lot of files like that and need to fix them. You can use XMedia Recod which is free. it will only convert the audio codec and adjust its files to be imported into Vegas.

XMedia Recod download:

Yes you're right, if you were to use avidemux, you can use copy for video but not for audio, need to choose aac so it copies video but encodes new audio, or follow Joelson's method. I used videoproc with auto copy turned on, but I only just realised it always encodes new audio it only copies the video

OBS Studio does not have audio problems, other than in your settings. AVC with MP3 is not a format.

If you will do this for an OBS Studio recording that gives you audio problems, AND one of your OBS Classic recordings, this will clear up relatively quickly for you. That's two sets of data. We have a lot of experience with this.

this isn't the solution but i does help with any pre-recorded videos that are "corrupt". Thank you!

@adam-p No it isn't a solution and requires extra time and processing, but Handbrake also does batch processing IIRC.

Others above have given you suggestions...
