  • Movies play fine in WinAmp but way too fast in Premiere

    I’m pretty new to Premiere and I was hoping to learn functions as I go, but right now I’ve really gotten stuck.

    Hi all,

    After finally finding a youtube downlaoder which wouldn’t create corrupt files half the time, I set out to start on a concept video of a vjshow over multiple screens. I catogorized all my movies into folders, marked al the musical cue’s in the bands mp3’s and photoshopped some displays to act as a mockup.

    However when I wanted to try and edit the footage, it seems that all of it was playing WAY to fast. The video that is, the audio was just fine. When I skip to a frame and then start playback, the audio and video start at that point, but the video starts playing way to fast again.

    The odd thing is, that when I play any of the files in WinAmp or Mediaplayer it plays back fine. So I’m a bit stumped, cause that would prove that I’ve got all of the necessary codecs.

    Does anyone have an idea of what I’m doing wrong? Tnx in advance!

    Make sure the video clips are running at the correct frames per second.
    In the Project Tab;
    1. Select the clip that is having problems.
    2. On the top right you’ll see the specs. SHould have frame rate video frame size etc.
    3. If it is wrong (not PAL 25 or NTSC 29.97) and more than it should be that will cause it to run fast in the timeline.

    To fix it;
    1. Right click on the clip in the project panel.
    2. Select ‘Interpret Footage’
    3. Select and change the frame rate to the appropriate one.
    4. You can select all the clips, make the same selection as point 2. and it will apply to all the clips together.
