Vegas doesn't see mov files

I installed a trial plug-in called Epic which allows editing of mov files. It creates proxies in the background. Unfortunately, the trial only allows a 5 second clip so I found it useless. After uninstalling, I found that I could not see any mov files in Vegas.

Short of re-installing Vegas, is there any way to have Vegas "wake-up" to mov files?

I've already re-installed QT to no avail.

Thanks,
jornaim

No knowledge of Epic.
However, if you are sure that is what caused the problem. a System Restore would seem in order.

You did not tell us which version of Vegas and which version of Quicktime you have installed on your machine. That information is critical.

I posted to Pro by accident.
QT is 7.6.6 build 1671
SVMS Platinum 10

Never heard of Epic, but when you removed it, a Quicktime file that you need was also removed. Try removing and reinstalling QT.

The trial is a trial. To do something useful with it you have to buy it :)

Epic 1.1 should re-enable the standard Vegas quicktime plugin when you run the epic unInstaller. Otherwise,
re-install Epic 1.1 and use the "Disable" button in the advanced options to disable it and re-enable the std plugin. If all else fails then re-install Vegas.

Probably the 178366 time this has been posted, someone else posted this a while back:

Uninstall any version of quick time you have

download version 7.6.4 half way down this page. and install it.

then don't ever let quick time update, you can uninstall the updater if you like.

Your hyperbole is misdirected.
VMS 10 works just fine with all versions of Quicktime, including 7.6.6.
