google on2 vp80 codec?

[jukka]

Is there any way to import or convert to be able to import and edit this videotype: google/On2's VP8 Video (VP80)
in corel video studio x4 ??

VP80 is perhaps better known as WebM. Unfortunately, VS X4 was issued before the WebM format emerged. But it is available in X5 and X6 (and presumably X7 which is to be released in the next week or so.)

Otherwise, if you stick with X4, the only thing I can think of would be to use some third party video converter and convert the WebM into some format recognised by X4 such as the 'old' .flv or .swf formats. But I'm afraid I personally don't know which converters might do that. However you might want to start with a freeware program like Handbrake. Unfortunately I don't have any WebM files to try out...

Thank you for a quick reply. I certainly will try and perhaps upgrade to X7 now.
