Well I recently recieved Adobe Premiere 6.5 as a bday present and am very excited to create an amv with it. The problem is:
I have video clips on my computer that are .avi files. I import them into the primiere, and the video is able to play on the "source" window. I can see the video and hear the sound and everything. It's all fine and dandy UNTIL I pull the video into the timeline, and the "program" window does not show the video, does not play the sound and is instead a black screen with a white cross at the corner.
I TRIED renaming my files into .mpg files, but to no avail (the "program" window does play the sound however, but not the video)
I tried renaming to .mpeg, and when i try importing i get told that "This clip was recorded at an unsupported speed" or something like that.
I tried downloading codec programs but have no clue how to work them.
And I tried importing the sample videos that came along with Primiere, and they had no problem loading.
Please help ;_; I really want to use Primiere, but I can't if it doesnt work.
