After extensive editing I saved the result as an avi file. When I tried to open the newly created file I got the message:
File format mismatch. [1081.1.3]
I have many other video playback programs and, with the exception of Real Player, they all can play back this avi file I had just created with VS Pro X4. The Program GSpot finds no problems with the file.
Emails to Corel remain unanswered and telephone support held me waiting for hours, only to disconnect when it was their quitting time.

Re: VS X4 Unable to read its own avi file
Could it be possible, I know I've done it, that you tried to use the Open Project command to insert your video file? Project files must be VSP. The file format mismatch can be caused by this, just like when you want to insert an image file, but use the Insert Video or visa-versa.
Since there are around 800 different codecs that are used inside the AVI container, which did you use? DV, uncompressed AVI, DivX, Xvid, ???
