Import of AVI has no audio?
I'm not sure why, but when I import an AVI that has audio into Encore as an asset, even timeline, it never pulls the audio with it. I get the video clip only. Anyone aware why this happens, or what I can do to work around this problem?
Thanks!
Thanks John, but I'm not sure what I am looking at/for. How does this answer my question?
I'm using the DV AVI output from PP2.0 to make the film AVI. When I import it into Encore it doesn't import the audio portion of the AVI.
Any additional advice is appreciated!

Import DV AVI Files with 5.1 Audio
To my surprise, Encore would not import DV AVI files from Premiere with 5.1 Audio. I much prefer to do my transcoding in Encore rather than in Premiere so I don't have to guess how much disk space will remain after menus and other content. Also, I think Encore transcoding is more efficient than Premiere.
Yet, cheaper and less sophisticated applications such as Nerovision will import DV AVI files with 5.1 audio, and give you 5.1 DVD's.
Which leads to another question, why does a cheaper application just give you the Dolby Digital 5.1 Audio, while a fee has to be paid to Surcode to get it in the Adobe applications?You cannot create a 5.1 Dolby Digital file in Encore, so the answer is an emphatic "YES" to the planning & budgeting.
You really should be doing this anyway, as it is a real eye opener. There are some superb Excel spreadsheet bit budgeting tools, as well as a simple enough manual method. It should be detailed in the FAQ.
As far as DTS goes, you'll need an encoder again. The only plugin version I am aware of is for Steinberg's Nuendo & Cubase systems, but both DTS and SurCode make them.
The SurCode DTS-DVD encoder is dated now - 5 years or so - and the Nuendo one sounds better. Having said that, the DTS-PSE sounds even better, as well as having DTS-ES and DTS 96/24 capability (both of which are DVD Legal).
Even better are the soon-to-be-released DTS-HD SAS & MAS encoders.
These are primarily for the Blue-ish type discs, but also cater for so-called "legacy" encoding as well, and the detail is even better than the DTS-PSE version. You can hear the difference in the detail where the top end sounds more natural & open. Whatever version you get will make Dobly Dirgital sound dull & muddy by comparison.
Quality can be improved by feeding the encoder with 24 bit audio too - this also applies to Dolby Digital.
Bitrates for DTS are either 754 kb/sec or 1509 kb/sec, and come in 2 flavours:
Compact (.cpt) and Padded (.dts) - either can use the lower bitrate, and there is no difference in audio quality between the CPT and DTS flavours. I recommend using the higher bitrate personally.
Both types are supported in Passthrough mode in Encore - that is to say they import, and multiplex correctly but cannot be previewed.
Hope this helps. -
Import mov error. "The file has no audio or video stream".
Very interesting. Would this also explain why i was previously able to import some high def files I downloaded and after the reformat of my computer and reload of cs5.5, I'm now not able to use those files? It's very strange. I did a project, used the high def mov files and it came out great. After a mandatory reformat and reload, now the file doesn't want to import into premier. Error message was... "this file has no audio or video stream"... yet they play fine in media player, and one of the files works, but not the rest. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. Mark
Mark,
Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately, you have posted to the Premiere Elements Tips & Tricks sub-forum, which is a repository for articles on how to do things in PrElements.
Maybe our MOD, Steve Grisetti, will move this out to the Premiere Pro CS 5 & CS 5.5 forum, where you will get more replies.
After the reformat, did you install Apple's QT Player? If so, what version.
What is the CODEC in those MOV files? That can be very important, but the very later versions of QT Player should install most of the popular CODEC's, that one sees in MOV, MP4, MTS, etc. files.
Good luck,

Tagged date : UTC 2009-07-19 04:22:10I encountered a similar problem. I had quicktime files that would play in the quicktime player from the desktop, but wouldn't import the files "the file has no audio or video streams". I had just reinstalled quicktime, and Premier with no change. Finally realized that we had Barracuda protection that was at fault. It was preventing communication to the quicktime codec and thus Premier could not interpret the footage. Another symptom, I would also launch After Effects and it would tell me that quicktime wasn't installed.
I solved this by uninstalling Barracuda. We reported the fault to Barracuda, and have not seen any change in the software. -

CS4 - no audio when importing an avi or mpeg
Hello I am trying to figure out why there is no audio when I import an avi created with Fraps. The audio is in the avi made from Fraps but when I import it to premiere pro CS4 - there is no audio during playback. I checked all the audio hardware settings, I dont know what else to do.
While not particularly FRAPS, this ARTICLE will give you some pointers on other video-capture programs.
As John points out, there are several FRAPS threads to draw from too.
Good luck,

Hello,
Loaded an AVI-from the desktop, as that is where my project file and scratch disk go, about 7.5 GB's, and when I scroll through it or try to render, I get this little message:Import Process Server has encountered a problem and needs to close
Windows XP Pro/ 64 Edition

Thanks so much in advance,
Tim S.Jim,
Thanks for all your help. Sure enough, an MOV file works just fine and I may have tracked down the problem: the video, I'm sure caused from the source tape, lags towards the end-it seemed like every time I scrolled towards the end of the AVI it would crash. Still seems mighty peculiar that it would crash the system each time.
Thanks,

.Mov files in CC : The File Has no Audio or Video Streams
I recently updated premier to CC , since i have issues iimporting any .mov files at all.
The specific ones Im trying for my current project are exports from AE , rendered lossless animation .mov , worked fine in CS6 , will play in quicktime and other generic's but always getting the The FIle Has no Audio or Video Streams message when trying to import into a project.
Quicktime is updated so I can't understand why the won't play, is this a CC bug ?
i go back to cs6 on my other comp they open fine...
Ive seen a few topics on this none with a resolution and most of those where from cam's, this is an export from AE, anyone able to help this is stopping me from working atm ......
troyI can verify that Apple screen recordings without audio do not import into any Adobe premeier.
Details on screen recording from Gspot v2.70a:
H.264
qt : Apple QuickTime (.MOV/QT)
File Type: QuickTime (.MOV)
Mime Type: video/quicktime
Len: 1:03.083
Frms: 1,521
Qf: 0.153
Frames/s: 20.000
wx: 1280 x 800
sar: 1.600 (8:5)
However Apple (MAC OSX) screen recordings WITH audio will import.
I would think this should be fixable with hotfixes...
If you (adobe staff) have access to macbook pros 2012 or 2013 models, open quick time pro, do a screen recording, make sure no audio is recording, just your screen movements.. then export to 1080p video (mov is only option).. then on a windows PC try to import that file into adobe premiere. The file will play perfectly fine natively in windows with any player so long as a H264 decoder is available on that system... the problem here is Adobe Premiere. Not the users system.
Edit:
To help those with this issue.. just make sure when you render your mov that you have ANY kind of audio in it.. and just remove the audio track once imported into premiere. I know it's frustrating and you would think something as simple as not having an audio track wouldn't break premiere but alas... we have to work around the shortcomings until they decide to fix it.. just like the VFR issue in premiere. -
Black Screen for .avi format but audio does play
Hello
I have just imported an avi video file that i recently converted from flash... the convert format is:
H.264/AVC
Bit rate: 4500
Frame Rate : 30
The video plays fine in windows media player so i then file> import and I get just audio only. I have not installed any special codec packs, given it worked in media player i assumed i already have the codec... am i wrong in this assumption?
I don't really know how to debug the problem ?

FCP Imported Sequence will not play audio (waveforms present)
Hello,
I've imported a sequence from FCP 7 and it relinked with little issue. My timeline has 10 audio tracks. Waveforms are present on all tracks. most all the audio are .aiff files. I can load the audio into the source player and hear the audio and see the stereo VU meter working normally, however in the sequence there is no audio playing, nothing happening on the VU meters.
I've checked my audio hardware outs, tested with a clip of tone as well. Tone plays normally in the Source window but modulates oddly on the timeline, but it at least plays.
I've searched the forum but my specifc issue doesn't seem to come up, I am not missing the audio in my clips.
Helpful replies are most appreciated.
bkI had this problem too. I'm trying to remember what the culprit was, but check 2 things:
Are the audio tracks enabled? Right click and make sure they are.
Is the audio level pulled all the way down on each clip? I think that was the problem for me - I had to go through each clip and reset the audio level to 0...it was set to -∞. -
Premiere Pro CC (2014) has ERASED AUDIO from my original media?
I know there are a lot of threads out there about not hearing audio, or missing audio. Maybe this is a related problem, but I didn't find anyone who described the same problem I'm having, or had a solution.
I opened up a project today that I've been working on for a few months, a documentary of sorts, with interviews, b-roll etc. I'm editing with the native footage, which is AVCHD, shot on a Panasonic AF-100. Today, I noticed that two of my interview clips seemed to not playback as I watched it. I wasn't too concerned at first because I know PP can be buggy, but here's all the things I did and how the problem escalated:
- I tried playing it again, to see if it was a fluke... no audio
- I looked at the audio in the timeline... no waveform, just a flatline... no audio.
- I looked at the whole interview's audio waveform... about HALF of it is FLATLINED... like PP had erased or overwritten the audio somehow!
- I restarted PP... no audio. Then I restarted the whole system... no audio.
- I went back to the original clip in the Media Browser to try to re-import it... no audio.
- I opened Prelude to try to look at the original media from different software... no audio.
After a few months of work (and an editing budget of tens of thousands of dollars), I am 4 days away from the delivery date, and PREMIERE IS ERASING MY MEDIA!!!
If this is not solved, I stand to lose more than just this job, but this entire client, my reputation, and my livelihood. ARE YOU LISTENING, ADOBE? This is my career we're talking about. Please help.Thanks for the reply shooternz, to answer your questions...
Any recent updates? eg O.S
- Nope. I'm running OSX 10.9.5 on a 2014 Mac Pro. I've been told to avoid Yosemite at all costs.
Have you checked the source files of the affected clips in another player?
- Other than Prelude, no. One thing I hadn't tried yet was to fire up my old version of Final Cut and see if I could transcode it from there with audio. What other player can read a raw .mts file?
What does the Clip in the Bin and the Source monitor indicate ( Info)
- The icon indicates that there's audio, and when I look at the waveform in the source monitor, it looks like just what I hear... a few minutes of regular audio, then flatline, then some audio again, then flatline.
Have you tried your back up project file?
- No, I didn't want to lose the editing progress I had made today.
Is the audio from camera or from other recorders?
- from the camera
Anything common between the affected clips? eg merge, FX,
- not that I can tell, at least nothing that wouldn't also be true of a dozen other clips which seemed unaffected. no clip effects, etc.
What does the Audio Mixer and Audi Meter show?
- shows nothing (where it is flatlined in the original clip) as I would expect.
AFAIK - There is no way PPRO can "erase" just the audio from your source file. At least not without the editors input.
- That's what I would think too. But even if it's not "technically" possible, it seems to be "effectively" possible because nothing in the creative cloud seemed to be able to read the clip properly. As I mentioned in my post above, it seems to have only been solved by relinking the clip to a .mts file recovered from a back-up of the project from a couple weeks ago. Though, for what it's worth, the file sizes are identical and created/modified dates match as well... so yes, it would appear that the file has not been altered, but regardless, I can't point to it and get the proper audio. -
