Rendered file not video

Hi I just worked on a small video of 1:30 on Sony Vegas 13 pro. After I render it it comes into my folder as a weird file that can’t be opened without an app. “How would you like to open this file” with a list of applications that could open it. I’ve had this problem not just for videos but other stuff to can somebody please help?

Try the SonyAVC render template instead of whatever you used.

If that still doesn't open you need a media player. I use Media Player Classic Black Edition.

I think you tried to open an SFK or SFL file, which definitely is not your media file.

Your Render As dialog will tell you exactly where you rendered your Media file, which will be MP4, MPG, AVI, or whichever media format you rendered it to.
