Sony Vegas 11 (Windows 7 x64) to ffmpeg. How?

[Jodi the Tigger]

Hello Guys,

Spent the past couple of hours trying to get a video out of vegas and into ffmpeg using the frame server.

So I render as the frameserver RGB24 (720p 30fps). The keyfile is made fine.

when I try to read the keyfile using ffmpeg I get the following error:

[avi @ 000000000032a820] non-interleaved AVI
[avi @ 000000000032a820] max_analyze_duration 5000000 reached at 5000000
[avi @ 000000000032a820] Could not find codec parameters (Video: none (DFSC / 0x
43534644), 1280x720)
[avi @ 000000000032a820] Could not find codec parameters (Audio: none ([172][223
][0][0] / 0xDFAC), 44100 Hz, 2 channels, 6 kb/s)
FS.avi: could not find codec parameters

So I made an avisynth script with the following line:

AVISource("FS.avi", false, pixel_type="RGB24").info()

That file plays fine on windows media player, but when I use ffmpeg on it I get the following error:

AVISource: Couldn't locate a decompressor for fourcc DFSC

Looking at the net, it seems there isn't a 64bit avi codec for  DFSC? Is this right?

How can I get a video out from Vegas and into ffmpeg? 

Help?

Well, I found a solution, but not the best one:

------------------
Just use the 32 bit build of ffmpeg.
------------------

Only downside is that the 32 bit version is 6% slower than the 64 bit
version for the encoding I do (I just tested it using 32 and 64 bit
versions of the same build).

So - the issue still remains, but at least I can now use the
frameserver to encode from vegas.
