  Problem with Video Import CS4

  Posted by Tim Polster on March 9, 2009 at 10:37 pm

  Hello,

  I am trying to import a Canopus HQ .avi file into Photoshop and I am only getting a white screen.

  The animation timeline shows the length of the clip, but the preview shows only white.

  Any ideas?

  I am on a PC with an ATI 4850 video card.

  My hope is to run a noise reduction pass over my video file and export back to my NLE (Edius).

  Thanks!

  Load the correct Codec on your system

  Hello Richard,

  I use Edius so the Canopus HQ codec is on my system.

  After Effects sees it.

  Do you know how/if I can show Photoshop where it is?

  Since Photoshop utilizes QuickTime for video import/render you need to make sure any codecs that are required are installed for QuickTime. If QuickTime can open any play the video Photoshop should be able to as well.
