Users Reviews
I have used Acrok software for six months now. I like its stability and its ease of use. Now its been upgraded to Ultimate conversion software to rip Blu-ray and DVD movies on Windows 10. What more can I say. A reliable company, great product! Thanks Acrok. I used to dread converting MXF, MTS and MKV into my computer but now with the Acrok Video Converter Ultimate, I no longer dread it. Very easy.

How to Import Files into Sony Vegas Pro?
Once you’ve set up your Project, you will need to import video clips. Before you do, take a look at Sony’s simple but powerful Project Media Window:
Each folder is called a ‘Bin’, and you can create as many as you want by selecting the Media Bin>Right Click>Create New Bin.
This is important, because once you’ve setup your project into bins, you can search (Right Click on a bin>Search Media Bins…) these bins and you can even save your results into a ‘Smart Bin’ for future use!
There are two simple ways to import video into Sony Vegas Pro:
File>Import…>Media…
Click the Import Icon (next to the lighting icon)
Once you have imported your video clip, you can right click it and select Properties… to view its properties. You will also get a snapshot of it at the lower end of the Project Media Window, as shown in the above image.
Sony Vegas Pro allows native editing of many file formats, including R3D. For Red Media, if you right click the clip you will have the option of selecting File Format Properties… to get extra settings to ‘correct’ your R3D files.
