Although Sony Creative Software announced that Native MXF support is added since Vegas Pro 10, users may still encounter many kinds of unexpected troubles when trying to import MXF to Sony Vegas:
"I have some videos from my Canon XF 305 and plan to import to Vegas 13 for editing. However, Vegas only can extract the audio of the MXF files, I can not see the MXF video picture in Vegas. Pls help! It is much important to me."
In fact, the MXF video format contains some heavy video codecs that many editing software including Sony Vegas can’t support it natively. Thus, the best way to make Sony Vegas work with MXF files is to convert MXF format to Vegas compatible format like MPEG-2 previously. Under this circumstance, a MXF to Sony Vegas converter is necessary which makes it possible to smoothly import MXF recordings to Sony Vegas for editing.
