Video issue when importing AVI
When I import an AVI file into Premiere CS4 the sound works fine, but the video has a very big issue. It only displays the first few seconds throughout the entire timeline,(In the case of this one of the files its 40 seconds stretched to fit almost 2h of the sequence). This has only come up with AVI files.
I havent been able to find a solution for this.
On a different note, does anyone know how i could import an mkv file into premiere?

A few notes, the video of the AVI files uses an xvid codec (which i have)

I wanted to post the solution for this in case anyone experienced the same issue. Originally the file was captured and converted to avi using an xvid codec. (Bad idea)
The problem manifested itself with the video being completely out of sync and stretched.
Using magic video converter I then converted the file to MPEG-2. I’m not sure what happened but the sound became un-usable. In order to correct this I imported the original avi file, and separated the audio (deleted the video) and deleted the audio channel from the converted file. I lined up the files to match and it worked perfectly.
