I have a question. In Premiere Pro you can import .gifs right?

If so then I'm having trouble. Whenever I try to import a gif this pops-up:

So i'm like: "Good it's importing" However, it doesn't it just stays like that without importing at all. I once waited 30 minutes and nothing happened so i had to click cancel. This is very important.

Secondly some of my .avi videos when i'm trying to import them this comes up:

I've tried everything and I still can't fix these problems. If you can't import .gifs then stupid me but if you can plz tell me how to fix this problem.

I figured out the first (importing gifs) problem. But i still need help with the second problem.

Try serving the clips you can't load with AVISynth's <b>AVISource()</b> instead. Or convert some of them to, say, HuffYUV.

for the AVIsynth script I'm very new to it so i was reading EADFAG and i tried the simple colorbars script however when i tried to open it, it said that Windows Media Player could not open the file. Am I doing anything wrong with the script because i followed the guide to the word.

Well, did you install AVISynth? If not, it's part of the <a href="/guides/avtech/amvapp.html">AMVapp</a>. Other than that, I have no idea.

<s>Well, in the old days, usually at gunpoint.</s>

Load the file into VirtualDubMod, set In and Out points to select the scene you want, select HuffYUV (or whatever you're using) as the <s>KOMPRESSOR</s> compressor, and save. Repeat for as many scenes as you need.
