SPOT - Kid in picture error

JakeDaSnake wrote on 2/18/2005, 10:41 AM

I've tried to play the kid in picture veg file from the sundance page & I keep getting an error when opening.

It says "an error occurred while loading the project file"
The file is an unsupported format

Please help

Hmmm....
It's just the "Gone Fishing" image from your C\Windows\Media library. That's it.
What version of Vegas are you running?

Just upgraded to 5d with no luck on the veg

I don't know what to tell you. Just downloaded it to my laptop, it opened fine. Anyone else tried opening this?

I am getting same error.
Unsuported file format.
Details tab reveals:
File C:\Documents and Settings\Gary\Desktop\Fishing.veg could not be opened.

HMMMMMMM.
May because I am Polish and "how many 'polocks' does it take to open a veg file"......... LOL
[Not meant to offend other Polish readers. Apology]

You may need to copy the file to a location with no spaces in it, such as C:\MyVegFiles\Fishing.veg

And then open it from within Vegas

I put it in root of D drive to no avail....

File D:\Fishing.veg could not be opened.

Same problem here - I am using Vegas 5.0d and Win2K-SP4.

I suspect it may be the veggie - after two downloads, it shows as 0 bytes. Also could not open it from the VASST site - same error.

Hmmm .. maybe the veggie is not really there?

Thanks Spot,
Cheers,
Tom

Indeed, same error here. File appears to download instantly, and a file is created on my PC, but it is a zero byte file.

Hmm....I've got Jason digging into it. Maybe when I checked the download, it referenced right because it's on our network internally too.
[edit] try it now. We've changed the permissions.

Yeah, better! 14K

I'm at work with no Vegas in site. Very interested to try this, though.

Great .. thanks Spot.
Download worked fine and veggie looks good.
More inspiration!
Cheers,
