I don't know if anyone has ever had this problem and know's how to solve it, but I need help. I'm having this problem where i can't drag in these video clips of mine into the timeline. I can drag in all my other files but these clips that i downloaded (but i have the actual episodes on dvd so its legal) won't go into the timeline. Every time i try to i got that curser thats a circle with the line through it. So if anyone could help me i would greatly appreciate it.

what codec are the clips encoded with?
I'm guessing divx, in which case you should re-encode those clips with HuffYuv or Lagarith (you can use vdub (/mod) to do this)

that means that the format isn't suported or it can't read the video... what format is the video and if it's avi, what codec?

Could be a codec conflict. Having both divx and xvid installed will cause such problems. Uninstall one.

vegas has problems with xvid, that's probably why.

What, even if you tell XviD not to decode the DX50 FourCC and vice versa?
