Import avi with format 1170x905
Good afternoon,
I am using Premiere Elements version 7.
We recorded with another tool the use of a program. You could say that we now have a screenshot movie. The size of this avi is 1170x905 and a framerate of 200.00. Now I want to import it into Premiere Elements and add text, cut it and so on.
Problem: When I import it, the quality is always significantly worse than the original. I tried different settings. I can only set it when I create a new project. There are some formats for computer files, but I can not change the size. The fields are disabled. Later on I want to export it in exactly the same format.
What can I do? Reducing the quality is not an option.
Thanks,
Sonia
Sonia,
I think that the real deal breaker in using Premiere Elements 7 for this task is the frame rate, 200 frames per second. Also, you say that you want to export, keeping the same format as the import which you describe as .avi. What kind of .avi do you have, since .avi is just the wrapper which can contain a variety of compression types?
I will toss out a few features of Premiere Elements 7 which do not come together for me to say "this is the answer".
1.Premiere Elements 7, New Project Dialog, use the project preset for now of NTSC DV Standard or Widescreen (or PAL counterpart if you are in a PAL region). This is not critical because of what comes next. Once the workspace opens, go to Edit Menu/Preferences/General and uncheck "Default Scale to Frame Size" so that you will be seeing your 1170 x 905 image in the Monitor in the Edit area and not it scaled to the project preset frame size of 720 x 480.
2. Import your video into Premiere Elements 7, using Get Media/Files & Folders from the hard drive save location. Go to the Project Media View and right click that video file there, select Interpret Footage. In the Interpret Footage dialog, Frame Rate/Assume this frame rate, type in 200 for fps.
3. The frame size should not be the issue in the export, but the frame rate is. I have not found an export with a frame rate greater than 60 fps.
Example: if you went File Menu/Export/Movie, Settings, used Microsoft AVI, you could type in your frame size of 1170 x 905, but the max fps appears to be 60, no where near 200. Then, since I do not what type of AVI that you have, this route may be entirely in appropriate.
Just some thoughts.

Problems importing AVI with DV codec to Premiere Pro
Problems importing AVI with DV codec to Premiere Pro (720x564 px, 32 kHz stereo, 24.4 bitrate)
I can't import that video. What can I do?Svanur,
I agree with Harm. The specs. do not match up correctly. Where did those AVI files come from?
I assume that you are working in PAL-land (and not NTSC-land). Is that correct?
What platform are you working on, Mac, or PC?
When you attempt to Import those AVI files, what is the exact error message that you are getting?
Good luck,

Freeze when importing AVI to Encore 1.5
In the past I used P.Pro 1.5 along with E.DVD 1.5, and importing (any codec) AVI would work fine without a hitch. With this system, I had a Matrox RT.X100 card installed, and usually imported AVIs with this codec.
NOW, I've upgraded my computer, bought the new RT.X2 card, installed P.Pro 2.0 with my old version of E.DVD 1.5, and whenever I try to import an AVI (Matrox codec, or traditional Microsoft DV AVI to elimatinate the possibility of Matrox codec causing the error), all of a sudden it freezes. I have to hit ctrl-alt-del to exit the program, cause it will just stay like that forever. HELLLLPPP!!! :o)Shouldn't this be posted in the Encore 1.x subforum?

How do I import movies with an AVI format taken with a digital SLR?
How do I import movies with an AVI format taken with a digital SLR?
If you cannot import using File Menu > Import Movies... You'll have to convert them on a Mac.
You will need to use a free app called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5.
Basically, you drag the .mts file into MPEG Streamclip. Then use FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your codec. And it will save out to a .mov file and iMovie will edit this format like there was no tomorrow -
Premiere CS5 import avi clips without sound. How can I import avi clips with sound without convert?
Dear Adobe Forum,
I have the following problem, please help:
I would like to import avi clips in adobe premiere. All clips have the same avi codec. But unfortunately my adobe premiere does not import the sound of a few
avi clips. It is wired because about 10 out 70 avi clips which have all the same avi codec does not work with sound in premiere CS5. In the timline premiere import the video and audio line but there are no audio waves in the about 10 avi clips. additonally premiere plays the 10 avi clips in the source monitor without sound. Furthermore when I open the 10 avi files without adobe premiere they have sound, but with premiere there are no sound in the 10 avi clips.
What can I do, so that I can import all avi files with sound. I do not want to convert each of the avi files because then they have not a good quality and it is to complicated and it takes to much time to convert all files in this video project and in the other video project in my future.
Consequently How can I import all avi files so that they have immediately sound? Do I have to change some premiere settings?
Thank you in advance

Consequently, as you can see, they have both nearly the same information
Both video clips have the following audio codec:
AAC
In the folder where all raw video clips exist there are a few new files with the codec ending: .AVD ("the name of the file".AVD)
But the 2 video clips mentioned above does not have any files like .AVD oder something else like that. But the first one works and the second one doesnt work. -
Issues with Importing 'AVIs' into CS3
I have CS3 and am trying to import AVIs, but am getting no audio or no video, however it seems to be a bit unpredictable. On one computer one file will play with both on the other I get either audio or video but not both.
Have done a lot of reading tonight and can see that I need to be using DV AVI Type II, problem is I have been trying to do that! I have been using Format Factory and have had no luck both with the AVIs and the MPEG files that I have converted. So obviously it is not converting into a usable format.
Can anyone suggest a program that will convert to DV AVI Type II. I have looked at the list on Videohelp but none of them specify that they convert to DV AVI Type II.
I understand that I may loose quality, but am editing videos to go in school seminars and so need to use clips that are relevant and interesting for the students. And given that I have just purchased CS3 I would like to work out how to make it work!!
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!!
Thanks!!Jeff,
To my *knowledge* it only uses the installed system CODECs. Only tip to this was when I added Lagarith, HuffYuv and Black Magic CODECs to the system, they suddenly were available in DMC. Now, this does not prove that it only works with system CODECs (it might have some of its own), but these three were not available, until I installed them.
Over the years, it's proved to be a good program. Yes, it does choke on occasion, but usually very stable, simple and I've yet to have a converted file (unless there was gross OE) not work in the intended app.
So far, 99% of my work with it has been going to DV-AVI's. It has been virtually flawless, even with some odd CODECs in the original files.
I have only tried a handful of others, but have not seen any that I'd rather have to replace DMC.

and when i extract video and ac3 file from 1.avi with avidemux then i can import them separately. but after importing audio and video in timeline audio length not same with video.
the length difference in the image:Hi,
I don't have GraphicConverter and since it is shareware and money is tight right now, I tried to find a freeware image converter on the internet for the Mac. I didn't. I remembered that I have Photoshop Essentials. It came with my Canon scanner. I installed it and looked to see if it had a converter of some type in it. I saw that you can import a file, work with it and then save it to what you want. I thought that I had already done that with the Nikon files. Anyway, I tested it. I imported one of the Nikon images into it and saved it as a jpeg- even though it appeared to be a jpeg already. Bingo! It worked. It imported into my video editing program. I selected two other files from the Nikon shots and did the same thing. I change the name of the picture and then save it as a jpeg in Photoshop Essentials 2. The two files imported into my video editing program. I then went to the two original Nikon files that I had imported into Photoshop Essentials 2 and changed the names of them- leaving the jpeg extension on to see if they would import, they did not. So, as you said, there must by some kind of Metadata with those files. Bringing them into Photoshop Essentials 2 and saving them as jpegs fixed it. Because of what happened, I just went through my approx. 4,000 pictures and selected about 1,400 again for a new family DVD. I created folder and exported 1,446 jpeg pictures into it. Then I opened by video editing program and imported the folder. All 1,446 pictures came in. I didn't try it with FCE and iMovie, since I the program I regularly use is Adobe Premiere. I may try it later, but I am pretty confident that if the pictures can be imported into Adobe Premiere, they can also be imported into FCE and iMovie(unless there is a number limit.)
All this has taken place over several days. I am glad that it is figured out.
Thank you for the help. -
A strange issue with importing avi video
I have a rather strange issue with importing avi files (which playback normally in other programs) into CS4. When I import an avi recorded from my camera into CS 4 in the preview the sound is played back normally, but the video itself is weird. Pretty much roughly first 5% of it are stretched over the whole spand and slowed down to fit. So the video of 4 minutes will play sound normally for 4 minutes, but replay only 10 seconds of video VERY slowly. I'm a bit puzzled because I've used the same camera with CS3 and never encountered this problem. breaking apart and speeding up the video obviously didn't work because the video only displays the first 5 recorded seconds no matter the speed, tweaking with presets didn't work either.

Importing *.avi files created in Audition 1.5
Any of you Adobe boffins taking notice here? Hope so, cos here's a job for you.
Get any *.avi file you like, then load it into Audition (any version, doesn't matter, I've tried this with all of them)
If you are, in fact, lucky enough to get Audition to open the file you've chosen, muck around as much as you want with the audio stream, then export the entire Multisession as an avi, with mp3 audio codec. What I've essentially done here is recreate the audio stream as a 192kbps 48000Hz 32bit mp3, and interleaved it back into the video.
Next, try to get that to import into Soundbooth CS4, or Premiere CS4, or Adobe Media Encoder CS4. I've had nothing short of a pain in the *** to get it to work. It just keeps coming up with, "Unsupported audio rate in file".
Now, remember what I've done. I created this file using Adobe Audition 1.5, and now your super duper mega-expensive piece of **** Soundbooth won't let me work with it, and the other video-editor/creator programs in this 'suite' won't work with the file either!
I've been working with this type of software since the days of Syntrillium's Cool Edit - the program you used as the base for Audition. I've also been remixing music as a DJ for over 20 years, doing video editing for almost 15 years, plus I'm not exactly running a piece of **** machine here. I have all the latest codecs and Windows Updates installed. With that in mind, I will be offended at any such lack of respect, like the, "Have you tried, (Basic no0b-level ******** thing to do)" that you self-proclaimed 'tech-heads' usually reply with. This 'Creative Suite 4 Master Collection' of applications has just cost me $5000, so you can believe my disappointment that it doesn't work!
System specs:
Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6 motherboard
Intel E6850 Core2Duo CPU @ 3.2GHz
4096MB Corsair Dominator PC2-8500 RAM
Twin ASUS EAH2900XT VGA cards (in Crossfire)
Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty Pro sound card
Twin Seagate Barracuda 500GB SATA-II hard drives in RAID(0)
Operating systems (dual-boot): Windows Xp Professional X64 SP2 / Vista Ultimate X64 SP1
CS4 Suite installed on Xp X64 SP2, with all latest updates/codec packs, etc. fully installed and activated.Now, make sure you read and understand
i everything
I've written in this reply.
(quote)"AVI is a very, um, "open" format, and heavily dependent on the OS (in your case Windows). "(endquote)
Tell me the truth. You're an American fresh-out-of-college no0b fuckwit, with no 'hands-on' experience at all. (actually,the 'hands-on' experience you
i do
have is limited to your hands on your dick! For you to send a reply such as the one you have to me, it shows you obviously haven't taken note of my system specs, nor my level of experience with both computers in general and audio/video encoding.
If the correct codecs are installed, it then becomes heavily dependent on the
i software
and whether it has the capability to 'read' the file. Thing is, even after exporting an 'uncompressed' *.avi, Soundbooth CS4 keeps coming up with, "Unsupported audio rate in file." Remember, this is a 'fully-fledged' install, straight from the DVD discs in the package box, and fully registered with all the Soundbooth CS4-specific codecs it puts in post-registration.
You ask what codecs were used in creating the file that Soundbooth won't open. NONE, you fucken idiot! Uncompressed means exactly that - NO FUCKEN CODEC COMPRESSION! This has happened
i after
processing the *.avi through VirtualDub, the most widely used
i codec-independent
program on the planet for uncompressing *avi's, irrespective of what codec has been used to
i create
the interleave.
What part of my message, "I've also been remixing music as a DJ for over 20 years, doing video editing for almost 15 years, plus I'm not exactly running a piece of **** machine here. I have all the latest codecs and Windows Updates installed" didn't you understand? I actually
i re-write
my own versions of Windows, you fucken goose - that's from Windows '95 right up to Vista 64 Ultimate! Maybe you also didn't read the part of my message where I said, "I will be offended at any such lack of respect, like the, "Have you tried, (Basic no0b-level ******** thing to do)" that you self-proclaimed 'tech-heads' usually reply with"
When I say the program doesn't work, I fucken mean it! I'm 40 years old, mate, and haven't got time to be treated like a dumb ****! I've just spend FIVE FUCKEN
i GRAND
on this software, based on what Adobe has told me about its' capabilities, and when it's not working due to you fuckwit tech-heads not getting it right for an operating system that's over SIX YEARS OLD now, you can expect blokes like me to go off their nut when you treat us like schoolkids!
(quote)"Auditions MP3 exporter, when working with AVI, does not allow 48k sample rate nor does it allow 32 bit sample depth."(endquote)
Well that's just fucken stupid, isn't it? When the program encodes and resamples audio at those bitrates, it won't export it? Honestly, grow a fucken brain and realise how dumb that statement actually is! There are a number of other audio/video editing programs that DO open, render and re-encode at these bitrates. Every other program I use for encoding *.avi's allows me open and work with the files that Soundbooth CS4
i won't
open on the same OS, namely NeroVision 4 (for DVD-authoring) and other encoding software such as Cucusoft and ConvertX-To-DVD. Even your own program, Audition 1.5, has no problem in splitting 'movie.avi' into audio and video streams - both of which are fully viewable in the multisession.
Soundbooth CS4 is a ****-up, mate, plain and simple. Get a patch out that allows this piece of **** to open an ordinary everyday uncompressed *.avi file, or I want every cent of my money back! -
Problems in importing avi file
I have problems\ in importing avi file..
when i try to import an avi file,, it is written that there is a message "unsupported format or damaged file"..
What should I do then?
I use Windows Vista Ultimate..Welcome to the forum. As Harm points out, AVI is but a wrapper, and can contain all sorts of data inside. This ARTICLE might give you some insight into working with AVI's.
Good luck,

"File Import Failure Unsupported format or damaged file" in CS6 but fine in CS5.5
Hello All.
Recording in Pal DV AVI from Sony Z5U with MRC1K compact flash recorder.
Imported files to computer using the Sony utility, and also tried dragging and dropping.
Some files import to Premiere Pro CS6.03, but others give "File Import Failure: Unsupported format or damaged file,".
The files that do import show up as 4:3 and I have to modify / interpret footage to get them to show as 16:9,
However, these same files play back just fine in Windows Media Player.
Intriguingly these files import just fine to Premiere Pro CS5.5, and also show up correctly as 16:9.
I can't figure out why some files import into CS6 and others don't....
Anyone else seen this kind of behavior?
(Normally I record in HDV and I've never had problems importing from MRC1K into Premiere, but the client specifically requested DV files for their ease of editing...)
Cheers
Mark
PS When I use the DV recoverer utility on these files they import just fine into CS6....Hi Jim,
OK, here's the video that imports OK into CS6.03 but that Premiere CS6.03 sees as 4:3:
And here's the one that won't import into CS6.03 but is happily opened by CS5.5 and correctly seen as 16:9:
Can you spot the difference? Thanks for having a look at this.
Cheers

Imported avi files video choppy, audio okay
Had to resort to using Dazzle bridge with Pinnacle HD 14 to get D8 tapes captured to laptop. Clips play fine if i just click on them. They are avi files. When I import clips to Premiere (I don't like Pinnacle) the audio is okay but video is choppy - frames keep freezing although the audio continues okay. One of my puzzles is what is the proper project preset for files and folders as sources. Doesn't seem to be addressed anywhere, even in Grisetti's book. Also, presets for importing D8 format tapes is also not addressed. While I was able to import this files to PRE before (the last few weeks) now they won't capture. That's why I resorted to retrying dazzle pinnacle combo in desperation. The bridge works to capture, can import files into PRE but again, the freeze frame problem noted above occurs.
Unfortunately, the Dazzle doesn't interface well with Premiere Elements. It works great with the Pinnacle software that's designed to work with it. But it doesn't produce DV-AVIs, the universal language of PC-based video.
If you open those AVIs with G-Spot, it will tell us what type of codec those files use.
http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
Once we know that, we may be able to recommend software for converting it to an editable video.
Or you can just edit it with Pinnacle's software.
The best solution though would be to capture any analog video with a DV bridge, a device designed to create DV-AVI files. The FAQs to the right of this forum offer more information.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/431853?tstart=0
EDIT:
You refer in your post to D8 video. If by that you mean Digital8, there is an even simpler solution (assuming you also have a Digital 8 camcorder). But only if you're using Sony Digital8. Regular 8mm and Hi-8 video won't work with this system.
