CS5 not recognising video from CS4 project
Hi, has anyone else come across the problem I have?
I open a CS4 built project in CS5, It says it has to convert things to be compatible, after it has done its thing, It asks for the link to the first video file in the project. I navigate to the folder that has the raw footage I edited with, then try to link to the video file. I get this message:
‘The selected file cannot be linked because its type (audio) does not match the original files type (audio and video)’
This happens for every file i want to link to.
I see another link on Creative cow with same problem (2011) without any answers, hoping reviving the problem in a new thread will bring answers.
Thanks

…some more info. CS5 is running on a new laptop (win 7 64bit) compared to the CS4 project which was assembled on my older laptop(running Vista). Is it a Codec thing maybe? If so how to fix? any help appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Andy,
Can you tell us the format of the source clips?
Also, rather than opening the CS4 project, have you tried to create a NEW project in CS5, and IMPORT the old project into it?
Thanks

Hi Jeff,
I tried to import the CS4 into a new CS5 project but still get the same problem.here is the video codec details after running through Gspot:
Audio: PCM audio 48000Hz 1536 kb/s tot (2 chnls)
Video: Indeo 5.xI see in the status on Gspot: Codec(s) are NOT Installed
Just compared the media encoder settings of CS4 and CS5, there is indo video 5.10 codec in the CS4, but it is not in the export video codec settings of the CS5.
So that is probably the problem 🙂

The Indeo codec is a 32-bit codec, so the 32-bit Premiere Pro CS4 can see and use it. You need a 64-bit codec for the 64-bit CS5 application.
