Final Cut rewrapped DVCPROHD MOV won’t import into CS3
My friend color corrected footage that I exported as P2 (it was P2 from the beginning) from CS3. He worked on it in Final Cut and gave me back an Mov file which is rewrapped as DVCPRO HD. I tried everything, including making a DVCPRO HD projct in Premiere and importing, and it still says ‘Codec is missing or unsupported’. How can I open this file? I’m going nuts trying to figure it out.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but unless you have an Apple system with FCP or FCS on it you can’t read the file format. The codecs are proprietary for FCP environments and that means no PC support either.
You need the file converted or re exported to a non-FCP environment, namely ProRes (can get downloads for the playback of it, PC too, you will get a gamma shift in the export) or Animation. File sizes will be much larger in Animation, but you won’t lose any quality and you can use it on any system.

I have Final Cut Sudio 2.0 on the same machine as Adobe Production Bundle CS4. But in Premiere I still can’t find the right codec. How can I install it into Premiere?
Regards,
Larry
