Below is a link to a Codec Pack that many of our users have used to successfully import videos into SONAR:<\/p>\n

In addition, you should download WinFF which is an outstanding free video conversion tool. http:\/\/winff.org\/html_new\/downloads.html<\/p>\n
SONAR works best with AVI files. Converting your file to a standard AVI using the “MS Compatible” preset in WinFF should make it compatible with SONAR.<\/p>\n
SONAR’s movie importing capabilities are based on Direct X, which only allows Standard Quicktime movies to be imported. You can open your movie in Quicktime and look at the Properties | then the Format of the Video and Sound Track. If there are any odd compression codecs like H.263 or other streaming formats, then SONAR may not be able to read it. Your best bet would be to Export the movie from Quicktime Pro as an AVI file or use WinFF to do this. <\/p>\n
When Exporting from SONAR, make sure you click “Encoding Options” in the Export window and choose “No Compression”. This should retain the video’s original codec.<\/p>\n
