HELP WITH SONY VEGAS

silvermert · December 11, 2016

I don't know if this is the best place to put this but I need help with my sony vegas 14... for some reason the videos I put in sony vegas to edit look weird. it's hard to explain, here's an example:

it's not just games but any type of video I record... I tried recording something from my desktop, games and webcam and everything looks the same in sony vegas but if I play the file on windows player or vlc it looks perfect, so the problem is sony vegas as I tried to import the files to windows movie maker and Camtasia and there they look fine. it's not my computer specs because i have an i7 6700, 32 GB of ram and an r9 380. in fact vegas was working fine but then I updated my graphics card and then I got this problem and going back to previous drivers is not an option since i want the features of current drivers.

i recorded with xplit, AMD relive, Camtasia and my webcam and the result it's always the same. the only way I've found to fix this is by converting the video to whatever format vegas read, I can even convert the video to the same format with the same resolution and it gets fixed

what do I do??? help!!!

Maybe do a fresh install of Vegas? That's all I can think of

I did that and stayed the same but after asking on 4 chan (i was desperate) turns out it's because the video it's a mp4 file with AVC codec and vegas has problems with that. the only solution is to convert them first to change the codec and then I can edit them properly so I guess I can't capture footage with my GPU if I want to edit it on vegas...
