Todays tutorial time is from a xsplit user that could not import a .flv file into sony vegas for editing.
Sony Vegas does not support the .FLV container even if it supports the raw formats contained inside. Many people fall victim to these all in one video converts that will convert your files to a new format by re-encoding and re-compressing the raw streams to a new format and then placing them into a new container.
This uses valuable system resources, takes lots of time, and worst yet will cause your files to lose quality!
The true answer to todays question is how to change the container on a file from one to another without loss of quality and using free tools, so that is exactly what I will show you how to do.
Enjoy and if you find the video helpfull please thumbs up and share with friends.
