Hi Bruce

Thanks for coming back to me!

We ended up going back to the original usability company and obtaining a copy of the orginal source footage in another format. The problem was caused by the compression and codec used by Techsmith. Adobe Premiere CS3 was not liking it!

Cheers

Hi Mike/Bruce

Did you guys manage to find a solution for this?

We have a 1.4gb movie that runs for about 15mins and was recorded using a tool called Morae by Techsmith. It uses its own codec https://www.techsmith.com

We are finding that when we play the avi in Windows Media Player the length is fine. When we import into PPCS3 we get a file lenghth of 43 seconds only?

The output of the properties from PPCS3 are below:
