Audition 2.0 not recognizing DivX Audio?

[Willie Toth]

It may be the file type, can you save as an AVI file and not a DivX file … Just guessing but that is the only thing that makes sence to me right now ………. WILLIE

Thanks for your response…

I can’t change the file type becuase I have 800+ files, and they are limited to what size they can be… They are currently AVI’s, but are compressed with DivX… I can bring other DivX compressed files in with success, just none of the ones I need to!

When I try to bring the file into After Effects it gives me the warning “No Such Avi Compressor” … but I can watch and listen to the file perfectly using Windows Media Player…

[Willie Toth]

If After Effects can’t deal with it I am pretty sure it’s your file extension that is your problem since it handles the same file extensions as Audition ……….. WILLIE

[Mike Wheeler]

I’m not sure as to how the extension would be causing problems, it is an AVI…

[Willie Toth]

If after effects won’t take it then audition won’t so I would think that it’s not a true AVI … Do you have Pre Pro? If so try importing it into Pre Pro … If you have the same problem then that pretty well is the answer … Wish I had some resolution for you but I don’t at this point ……….. WILLIE

[Mike Wheeler]

No, I don’t have pre-pro, I’ve never heard of it… I’ll take a look around to see if I can find it and give it a try…

Thanks again…

[Willie Toth]

Adobe Premire Pro … Let me know what you find out ……… WILLIE

Hey..

Guess I should figured “Pre-Pro” was “Premiere”… not up on the lingo!

I just tried bringing into Pre-Pro, and it never leaves the “Importing Files” screen…so I guess therein lies the problem, it doesn’t seem to be a true avi file….

These files were ripped from DVD using AOA DVD ripper, and ripped into a DivX compression….

Would you have any idea as to how I can convert these to true avi so I can bring them into Audition and normalize all of the audio?

Thanks for all of your time and help, you’re very handy!:)

Cheers,
Mike

Try to right click on a file and go to RENAME and change the file extension to .avi, it’s a shot in the dark but it may work ………. WILLIE

[Mike Wheeler]

All of the files are already avi…
