  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 Frame Rate Problem

    Posted by Deric Johnston on May 3, 2009 at 4:55 pm

    Hey guys, this is really weird. I’ll import some footage into Premiere Pro CS4, and the video is WAY to fast for the audio. The frame rate is at 29.97, but when I lower it, the audio is slower too. I playback the video in media player and it’s perfect, but just not in Premiere!

    Please help!

    yeah… I am having the same problem and it is driving me insane. I export some video clips from Premiere CS4 (ANY format), in Combustion I color correct and composite whatever effects I need, render out from Combustion (again in ANY format… Quicktime, JPEG sequence, AVI.. ANYTHING) and when I import it back into Premiere it’s about one fifth shorter on the timeline. The frame rate is 23.97 coming and going… and yet the frame rate is waaaay off when I import it back into Premiere.

    Any idea what’s happening here?

    Hey, I was just having a similar problem today…When I tried placing .AVI videos onto the timeline, the Length of the videos get cut a lot shorter and the vid slows down but the audio remains the same…

    However I found that when I converted the .AVI files to Iphone MPEG4 (.MP4) format, they worked fine! I was relieved, maybe you can try it too. Just a suggestion here.

    I’m new to Premiere CS4, and my question is somewhat related. My .avi clip plays fine outside of the software, but as soon as I import the video clip, the playback is jittery and the audio is just a bit off? Is the frame rate different on the playback? If so, how do I check to see what the frame-rate is within my project file. I know the .avi itself is 30 fps. Thanks.
