  • AVI and MP4 files with no video in Adobe Premiere | More

    Hi,

    So I’ve been trying to put together a few videos recently and I’m having a lot of problems importing files into Adobe Premiere. It seems that all AVI and MP4 files that I have tried will only import as sound files even though the program specifically says it’s a video file. The audio is the only information available for editing.

    Is this a codec problem? If so, what codec would I need to correct it? And where would I get it. Any help is seriously appreciated!

    Thanks in advance!

    CS3 and prior wont import .mp4 (H264) video. AVI is just a wrapper. Use Gspot (free) to figure out the codec, which may or not be editable.
