  • nikon d300s footage problem in 5.5

    Posted by Ethan Reitz on December 3, 2012 at 8:58 am

    all of my nikon .avi files which were fine in Premiere 5.0 suddenly look like this when I open the project in 5.5. All of them are brushed vertical lines. I can scrub through but they won’t render and when I try to export through media encoder or directly from Premiere it crashes.

    I tried updating the motion jpeg codec with a trial version from main concept. I updated ffd show. This didn’t change anything.

    The footage is 24fps – not 23.976. I converted the footage to .mpeg and it works fine.

    Any ideas appreciated!

    I’m editing on dell studio xp laptop, i5 8 gb ram, I’ve had no problems with this 720 p footage before when I was editing in Premiere CS 4. I opened it yesterday in CS 5.5 and there was a warning that I would have to re-save as it had been made in an older version of premiere. I did then try saving a new empty project and importing it – this didn’t change anything.

    I also tried just opening an empty project and importing one of the files into it and it also didn’t work.

    OKAY!! Solved!

    The key is changing to 24fps. Interesting as that hadn’t been a problem in previous versions of Premiere it seems. I had mixed canon xha1s 23.976 fps footage with nikon d300s 24 fps footage and the sequence was 23.976 fps.
