Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro ERROR: The file has an unsupported compression type

  • ERROR: The file has an unsupported compression type

    Posted by Joshua Weiss on January 4, 2012 at 4:56 pm

    It seems that no matter what type of wav I export out of the multi track mixdown in Adobe Audition 2.0, when I go to import it into premiere 5.0, I always get the unsupported compression type error. I don’t understand why though. I have tried 32 and 16bit/dither and non dither/and its at 48khz which is what it should be. There are about 5 or 6 different wav types you can export out of audition. Non seem to work.

    Any thoughts?

    Mac or Windows?

    Have you tried any other file type?

    Hey Tim,

    I am still PC. I am able to do Mp3 but would prefer the uncompressed format. I am just a little confused as to what has changed in my process that wav isn’t working.

    BTW, I did update my drivers for Quadro. Can’t really tell if that helped or not. Now it seems when my computer goes to screen saver mode, I lose my 2nd monitor and have to go back into the nvidia properties to get it back on. I did however seem to be a few updates behind on those drivers. Adobe was all up to date though.

    Hi Joshua,

    48k 16-bit stereo

    This is the standard for video editing, if you don’t touch any other settings, this ought to work.

    You would think. But it isn’t for some reason.
