I'm having a problem with Adobe Premiere. Video won't show..

I've just spent alot of time converting a dvd to an avi file using divx5.02 compression. In the clip preview window, the movie plays fine in premiere, but when I drag it down to the track view and try to play it, it won't play. Also one thing I have noticed is that the color of the clip in the trackview is like orange. I tried a different avi file and it was green and it actually played.

Can anyone help me. I'm thinking it may be the compressor I used on the video. This is to be my 2nd vid and I decided to use dvx to compress the file instead of xvid which I used last time.

DivX and Premiere don't get along at all, or so I've heard. You may need to try another format, but wait and see what other responses you get.

^^^^No, I'm not him....but I did see that thread. I also checked out the video guide. I tried the avisynth method instead of first converting it to an avi file. That method too doesn't work. I can get the video to show in the preview window, I can even get it to play by going frame by frame, but when I try and click the play button, absolutely nothing happens. Then I tried making a preview of a little clip of the movie and then I would get no picture of the video at all.
