Problem with video rendering in Edius 6

[Osmicata]

Hi, guys, I have the following strange problem with print to file option in both Edius 5 and Edius 6. I cut the stuff on the timeline, select the settings and go to print to file. I have chosen several settings (mov, mpg, avi, etc.) and out of 15 attempts only one or two rendered video. Otherwise they only render audio and black screen instead of video. One of the times when the program rendered video as well was when I deleted the video files from the V1 channel and thus I ended up only with the video on the VA channel. I would really appreciate your help, I am sort of new with Edius and perhaps I am doing some sort of a stupid mistake . Otherwise the editor works perfectly, the PC is IC2D, 4 G RAM, nice nVidia, etc. The material is MXF video and audio, provided from HVX 200 E. Cheers!

After you create (export, print) a file, search for it on the drive (outside of Edius, just with windows browser) and rightclick the file and choose open or play to verifiy the file has video and audio. If it does then there's nothing wrong with the print to file process you are doing. The problem is in the project setup and when you place the clip on the timeline in edius it's somehow not playing the video track correctly. Worse case scenerio: create another edius project and bring the clip into that. But I bet the problem is in your tracks setup (project settings or application settings.) For what it's worth, I NEVER use the VA track. It just gets in my way.
