Video Studio 10, .avi files

Post by Wasser1989 »

Hello to everybody! I have a problem that is surely easy to solve, but you know, I'm a kind of amateur with this software...
The thing is, Video Studio won't open any of my .avi files, and I don't understand why! Is there any way to load them? Thank you!

There are over 800 .avi file types.
avi, audi video interleaved, is a container sued for holding the 800+ file types, so first you need to find out which sort it is.
AVIcodec is easy to use, or Gspot, both linked to here

Then check to see if VS is compatible with that file type.

If not, you may be able to download the codec for it, if you don't already have it, which VS can use or you will need to convert it to a format which is, there are conveters on that page as well.

Only install the one codec needed, not a codec pack.
