An error has occured while opening a codec
by Mike Comlekci on Apr 13, 2009 at 11:38:31 pm

I keep getting this error no matter what I do or what I try to reinstall.

It says Sony vegas could not render (namehere).avi file

An error has occured while opening a codec.

This happens everytime I try to render a 12 minute video, and I'd like to use x264vfw codec but for majority of the codecs I try and use this happens.

Help would be appreciated.

Seems you may have some codecs corrupted....
Try running the check disk utility and hope it
clears up those nagging errors...thats what its there for.
Go to your start menu and select run, when the prompt
comes up type in chkdsk c:/f , another prompt will come
up telling you some scheduling info, then you type y
in caps lock and then restart your system.
