ProRez file bug in V14 build 201

jOn wrote on 12/14/2016, 2:07 PM

I've got strange bahaviour of the ProRez coded file after current V14 201 update - the alpha channel is not transparent. In older V14 version worked like a charm. In V13 the same file still works fine. Any ideas..?

mxhevcplug.dll issue ?

The only alternative way is to temporarily disable this plugin.

Go to C:\Program Files\VEGAS\VEGAS Pro 14.0\FileIO Plug-Ins (default folder installation), then rename the mxhevcplug folder to something else (like mxhevcplug_OFF)

By doing this, VP14 will use older QT7plug.dll to read.

Try do this and let us know.

I agree with Set's suggestion, but beware that your video will decode with more contrast if qt7plug.dll decodes it rather than mxhevcplug.dll.

Thanks, Set & Nick,

It worked.
