    I’m not sure why Adobe didn’t make an attempt to fully educate the user base about this change but here’s a link to a thread on the Adobe forums that clarifies.

    This refers to old, inefficient codecs like uncompressed QT and others that are no longer used except by newbies and the like who don’t know better. It’s not like Adobe just up and decided to leave their long term subscribers out in the cold and unable to edit their older, previously edited products, like Apple did when they released FCPX, which couldn’t even open FCP Legacy project files.

    I haven’t seen an official list of codecs that are no longer supported from Adobe. I got the warning on an Avid DNXHD Quicktime the other day, which surprised me, because I hardly consider that an old legacy codec.
