Importing flv into CS6 issues

I brought this up durring the pre-release but still can't seem to get any resolution to the fact that perfectly valid flv files that play just fine accross multiple other software, give a "file haas nsupported compression type" error when trying to import into Premiere.  I have recieved this with other formats in the past that required me to install additional codecs, but I would think flv being native to Adobe should import.  In CS5 I had similar issues but used to be able to import them into AE and then bring the AE sequence into PP as a work around, but can't seem to make that work in CS6.  I noticed in searching the forum that this was an issue for many in older versions, but didn't see any recent ones or any real solution.  Any insight would be appreciated!

FLV support is only partial, as there are several "flavors" of FLV. My memory is cloudy, but IIRC, FLV's with Sorenson Spark will not Import, where others with CODEC's, such as On2 VP6, etc. will. FLV is but a container, like .AVI, but with far fewer possibilities.
For the FLV's, that do not Import, which CODEC was used?
Good luck,
Hunt

    Hello all, I'm hopping that someone else has had this problem

    forward to the video capabilities. ANYWAY, I'm on a new IMac,

    how do you convert it to a prores file in compressor. I cant figure out that program at all.
    If you have a movie file that you wish to compress, launch Compressor.
    Once Compressor is open, go to the upper left-hand corner of the project window and select Add File.
    It will open up a window in which you can browse all available storage spaces.
    Select a file. Once you have done so, then assign a conversion setting from available ones and a destination for the encoded files
    Hit submit.

  • Importing stills into CS6 from Photoshop CS4

    I appear to be unable to import my still images from Adobe Photoshop CS4 (file types psd) into Premiere Pro CS6 and get the following error message "The importer reported a generic error".  Am I missing a very simple trick (other than having to upgrade Photoshop too!).  (Working on Windows 7)
    Help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Doreen.

    Doreen,
    In about CS5 (IIRC), a Bug developed, where if there was a very tiny Layer in a Layered PSD, there would be an issue Importing. I had assumed that that had been fixed, but could be wrong. Check your PSD, and look carefully in the Layers Pallet for some very small Layer. If so, can you Merge Visible (just poke OUT the "eyeball" in any Layer, that you do not want affected)?
    The normal issues with PSD's are CMYK, and Color Bit-Depth, but you have RGB, and if you had, say a 16-bit Image, PrPro CS4 would have issues with that.
    I have also had a few issues with Smart Objects in a PSD, and just Rasterizing those has yielded troublefree Images - however, I have also Imported Layered PSD's, WITH Smart Objects, that worked just fine - do not know what the differences were between those Smart Objects - but still, if PrPro CS 4 Imports them fine, that should not be an issue.
    Wish that I had more to offer, but good luck,

  • Not able to import .FLV into Welcome Page in Acrobat Portfolio

    Hello,
    I would like to import either an FLV or an SWF file into the Welcome Page of an Acrobat Portfolio. It does not work if I import an FLV, and it only half works if I import an SWF.
    I've put together a video illustrating the problems I have. I am not sure if 1. my expectations are too high, 2. there is a bug in Acrobat Professional, or if 3. There is a mistake in the documentation.

  • Cannot import .mxf into PPCC2014, but can into CS6 on same laptop.......huh?

    Just bought a new Asus laptop.
    i7-4710HQ CPU @ 2.50GHz
    16 GB ram
    64 bit Operation
    Nvidia Geforce GTX860m
    I installed PPCC2014. I cannot import .mxf files from a Canon XF300. I CAN import them into CS6 on the same laptop.
    I've been editing .mxf files on my desktop for years in PP, and for the last year on CC2014
    I tried taking the .mxf file out of the folder, (which contains .cif, .xml and .sif file) and importing alone and it doesn't work.
    The message I get is "unsupported or damaged file."
    I've tried importing by dragging and by using import in premiere.
    Anyone know what might be going on?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    I have come across this before. Seems Premiere Pro isn't properly activated. I would suggest the following steps:
    Sign out from the Creative Cloud app and Quit it (Quit option will be available after a few seconds).
    Now move the following folders to desktop:
    1) SLCache
    Windows: OS Drive\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe
    Mac: Library/Application Support/Adobe
    2) SLStore
    Windows: OS drive\ProgramData\Adobe
    Mac: Library/Application Support/Adobe
    3) OOBE
    Windows: OS Drive\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe
    Mac: /User/Library/Application Support/Adobe
    Launch Premiere Pro and sign in with your Adobe ID.
    NOTE: Make sure your Anti Virus/Firewall is not blocking any Adobe activation servers. Alternately, you can also check your 'hosts' file for any changes.
    If that doesn't help, i would suggest running the CC cleaner tool to uninstall Adobe apps and then reinstall:  Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • Importing mp4 into Flash 8, converting to FLV

    I just finished taking a Flash Video class where I understood
    I could import an MP4 and convert in to an FLV using encoding tools
    that come with Flash Professional 8. However, I opened a new FLA
    just now and tried to import an MP4 (File -> Import Video),
    Flash would not recognize the sample MP4 I have sitting on my
    desktop.
    I downloaded a demo copy of On2 FlixPro and it did recognize
    the MP4, is converting it to an FLV as I write this.
    Did I misunderstand about importing MP4s into Flash 8
    Professional? Is it in fact not possible. Or might there have been
    something I didn't do or didn't do correctly before importing? If
    so, what might it have been?
    Thanks in advance.

    The MP4 file extension does not appear in the filetype
    filter of the
    Import dialog, but if you select "All Files (*.*)," that
    should work. I've
    imported MP4s (they're MPGs, after all), but the extension
    doesn't appear
    under the "All Video Formats" choice. (I'm hoping this is
    what you mean by
    "would not recognize," anyway.)

  • Importing PDF file into CS6

    Hello,
    I am using the trial version of CS6 to see if this software would work best for what our company would like to accomplish. I currently have a pdf file that contains a parts book I would like to convert into a digital publication but I can not seem to figure out how to do so. I am using this book as our test to see the ease of use and overall quality of the software. Any suggestions on how to import my file into CS6?
    Thank you in advance.

    The end result is we are looking for a software that we can use to create digital copies of everything from Employee handbooks to Sales Binders.
    That is a fine idea.
    Does that help? I need a software where we can not only design new pages but also import in pages that already exsist.
    If the pages that already exist are only available to you in PDF format, then you have a rough slog ahead of you. I'd go so far as to call your project Nigh Impossible.  However, if you can get your hands on the source files from which those PDFs were generated, then it becomes Kinda Possible. So, like Mike, I'd want to ask first whether or not those source files were available to you, and what format they were made in.
    I'd also like to repeat Bob's point that you cannot become enough of an expert in InDesign to know whether or not it would be a suitable product for your project in thirty days - unless you were already experienced in something like Quark or Ventura.
    Lastly: what the heck do you mean by "digital publication"?  Do you just mean "a file"? I guess so, since you are comparing against printed binders. But it's hard to tell.

  • I can't import videos into Photoshop CS6?

    I just ripped a whole load of Doctor Who episodes, and I have been wanting to make .gifs of them, but every time I try to import them into Photoshop (file > import > video frames into layers (how I normally make gifs)), I get a message saying, "Could not complete the video frames to layers command because the file could not be opened". I don't know why this is happening, because Photoshop normally opens .avi files and all I want is to make .gifs of these Doctor Who episodes.

    You should open your Dr. Who episode in adobe flash or premier pro. Probably you need to covert it. You could use the adobe media encoder. Photoshop cs6 has "intuitive Video creation" and you have to bring in the video as a mp3. I never tried it   As Photoshop is an image editing app and not created to open Video files so you could probbably use Premiere to export the individual frames and then open those in Photoshop.

  • Trying to import PP1.5 project into CS6 on Mac

    Working on some 2 minute product videos in PP1.5 because I had it on our PC at work.  The project crashes at random points on export and always during editing if I scrub the video too often.  I am trying to export with huffuv or lagarith and then ffmpeg convert to suitable size/formats for the web. 
    I have tried a number of things to help it export.  Sometimes it works but not always.  Anyway,  it is difficult to finish the edits because I can't view it in Premiere (long enough to finish) and can't export it conveniently (It does export using Cinepak codec but the quality is not good enough and it takes about an 1 hour/2min of video). 
    I have installed CS6 on my Mac, thinking the project files "are just XML or whatever" and should be compatible.  But no.  No project import and no sequence import.
    Is there anything I can do to get the project into CS6??  I am even willing to edit the project file.
    Thanks

    I doubt that you will have any luck. Premiere 6.5 was ported for both Mac and PC. When it became Premiere Pro (several different names at that point), it was PC ONLY>
    PrPro CS 3 was the first version to be X-platform.
    You might need to befriend a PC user, with say PrPro CS 3, to Open that Pr 1.5 Project into their program, then Save_As, and use that on the Mac.
    Good luck, and sorry for the bad news,

  • If I had a font I used in CS6, how do I import it into CC?

    If I had a font I used in CS6, how do I import it into CC?

    No worries.
    If you are using a font manager, it will either have an activate or install option in it. The help file for the particular font manager likely has the process written down.
    If you are not using a font manager, then depending upon your OS, you simply install them. I am using Windows and so installing a font is as easy as right-clicking on the font file and choosing install. I have no idea how to installa  font on a Mac if that's what you are using. Either OS font installation can easily be Googled, though, if you are not sure.

  • How do we import a font (Japanese) into CS6 for titles?

    We want to buy the English version of CS6, but we want to put Japanese subtitles on our videos. How do we get Japanese characters into CS6?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    You install fonts into the Operating System by right clicking on them and choosing Install.
    Installed fonts should be available to any software on the system that allows font selection.
    The bigger issue, I think, will be typing them out using an alphanumeric keyboard.
