    DivX is not suitable for editing.

    If you can play the video on your PC, the codec is installed. While most professionals would not think of using a highly compressed source video, it can be edited. Further recompression on output will degrade the images further.
    Premiere Elements is more suited for this than Premiere Pro, but try it. Timeline playback may be stubborn, even on a stout PC.
