Question / Help Editing local recording file issue

I’m having trouble editing the raw files that OBS produces (more details below)



I’m using the following settings:

Video encoding:

X264

Use CBR, enable CBR padding

Max bitrate 3000



Audio encoding: AAC

Bitrate: 192

Format: 48 kHz

Channel: stereo



Video settings:

1920X1080 resolution

No downscale

FPS: 60

Disable Aero



Audio Settings:

Speakers

No mic



The video works fine if I want to watch it or upload the raw thing to youtube, but when I try to import it into Sony Vegas Pro 9, only the audio shows up and it’s as if there isn’t even an associated video.

So to edit it I have to convert the file to a usable form before being able to edit it. Ironically enough, doing so makes the video show up, but the audio peaks do not. The audio still works, but an error appears if I convert it to wmv format.


Is there a file output that I could set OBS to so that I can immediately edit it in sony vegas?
 
Is your OBS set to record in FLV or MP4? I can't tell you where that would be atm, though, as I'm not at my pc >~>

EDIT: looking at the file extension would reveal this as well
 
It records it as an mp4. From what I can tell from experiments with converting to other formats, it's the x264 portion of the mp4 that vegas pro doesn't like. But it seems that other people are able to take the file directly to vegas for editing so I'm wondering if I just need a newer version or something. Is there some sort of plugin for sony vegas that would allow the file to be read? Or is there some other file output for OBS that I could use so I can instantly take it into the editing software?
 
All that flv thing does is later converts it to the same unusable mp4 file as before. I.e. I still end up with just audio and no video.
