Codec for Sony vegas
Sony Vegas is great, but if you make movies witha small digital camera like the Canon Powershots, the videos are in avi format with a codec that Vegas doesn't have. The result is that, when you add a video to the timeline, only the audio shows up.
A lot of places try to sell you codecs for like 20$.
It took my a while to find, but the first link on this page (morgan-multimedia) is free and works great and fixed the problem:
