Camstudio's mp4 files are not accepted by Videostudio Pro X6 yet, they play well on other players.

Can they be inserted in the VS timeline? If so, can you right click and give us the exact Properties? That will at least give us a clue as to which codecs -- video and audio -- were used to produce the files...

No, they cannot be inserted into the time line. Error message: Unable to open file. File format mismatch. How did they encode to mp4? No problem using VLC player. VS not flexible enough, i guess.
However, AVI works well.

Do you have a program which will tell you the properties of the file, and particularly the codecs used on it?

Can you upload a short (10-20 secs) sample mp4 file to a free webhosting site for us to download? We can then try to duplicate what you are getting.

Would like to know how does one change codecs from one pack to another? :?: Is there a program for that or can it be done in VideoStudio? :?: Just wondering in the event I have a similar issue in the future.

Thanks in Advance;

1. Open Camstudio and select options.
2. Under options select "Video Options."
3. Under compressor change the codec.

A better codec for mp4 is Intel lYUV Codec
