Video encoded with HuffYUV has jumbled pixels

I've encoded a video using Sony Vegas and used the HuffYUV codec for rendering the video.

During the entire video the top 66% of the frame is jumbled with colored pixels. It looks like this:



The bottom part of the video looks fine. Any ideas what could be causing this?

I remember once having this issue when the width or height of the frame was not a multiple of 4. But since this video has a resolution of 1280x720 this can't be the case here.

Any particular reason why you used Sony Vegas as a decoder and as the program to call the installed huffyuv encoder? The error might be because of bit depth mismatch and I wouldn't be surprised given that the installable codec I think is stuck to 8bit planar only. If I were you, I would try to do the same thing but with FFMpeg instead as huffyuv Encoder. Oh and instead of the old 8bit huffyuv, try to call ffvhuff which is the "new" high bit depth aware (up to 16bit planar) version. I'm sure the problem will go away.

If you want free lossless codec, you should try UTVideo. I used, once, a lot of years ago HuffYUV, but i strongly suggest you switch to UTVideo (or MagicYUV).

Sorry, I forgot to report back. Thanks for your replies. I switched to FFV1 and the error doesn't show up with that codec.
