Is the huffy codec supported in Premier CS5?
Hi all,
I am using the trial version of Premier in the CS5 Production Suite and am trying to import an AVI video that has been encoded with the huffy codec. It comes up with the error message saying that this file type is not supported. Is this the case? I would like to export mpeg videos and this doesn't seem to be an option either. My version of CS3 did both!! I have read somewhere that mpeg 2 is available in the registered version and was wondering if this is the case, and if so would you have greater import file options (ie would I be able to import a huffy codec AVI once registered?)
Any help much appreciated.
Andy
Andy (and Jeff),
As Jeff says, since Premiere Pro CS5 is a 64-bit application, you need a 64-bit codec. So, I submit for your approval:
You can find the 64-bit version of HuffYUV right here. I didn't know this existed myself, until a couple of minutes ago. An important note is that you'll need the 32-bit version installed to play the encoded file back in 32-bit applications, or a 64-bit player like Media Player Classic Home-Cinema x64 for desktop viewing. With the 32-bit codec installed, the file will playback in WMP.

Does anyone know how I can add support for a codec in Premiere Pro CS4 [Windows]?
I would like to have the XVID [not DIVX!] codec and the X264 [not H264!] codecs to be supported by Premiere Pro, because I cant seem to import any of my custom converted videos [well, actually importing works, but Premier only shows 1 frame, and sometimes a bit of sound...]
It seems like Premiere Pro doesnt support anything! [except for the WMV codec, but that s*cks...]
Please tell me how to add codec support to Premier Pro CS4!Well, let me explain it all now:
-I used a video camera to shoot some clips.
-Those clips were automatically encoded with the H.264 codec. [as it is Full HD footage]
-When i tried to play these files on my computer, it displayed weird black bars on the left and right.
-So i wanted to convert those files using another codec, to make them look properly on my computer.
-So i opened the videofile with Any Video Converter Pro to have a look if that program does read the format properly.
-It seemed that Any Video Converter Pro was able to read the file properly.
*I think that is because it has build-in codecs or something? ... on the other hand, the codec i use a lot, x264 and xvid, which are available in the program, arent available by default: i installed them. So the problem would be on my computer [Vista 64bit] and laptop [Vista 32bit] not being able to handle the H.264 codec properly, as Any Video Converter Pro was able to read them properly.
-Using the fact that A.V.C.P. [Any Video Converter Pro] was able to read the file properly, i converted it to another HD codec: X264, which my computer can display without any problems at all: now the black bars on the side are gone.
-But now I want to use Pr to start the videoediting of multiple clips. Unfortunatly, Pr isnt able of reading the X264 codec.
-So i tried other codecs, like the ones which are supposed to be supported: MP4 , MPEGII, Microsoft AVI 1, Panasonic DV, XVid, DivX and WMV.
The only format which Pr seems to like is WMV:
-With the other codecs, it only shows the first frame, though it does import the files [no errors given].
-Only the Panasonic DV and MPEGII codec gave the error of not being able to be imported.
On to the information of the sequence and the used footage:
SEQUENCE:
Capture Format: HDV
Preset Used: AVC-I 100 1080p30
FOOTAGE:
Container: AVI
Codec: X264 [originally H264, explanation above]
Audio: MP3
Resolution: 1920x1080, aka Full HD
Video Bitrate: 6000
Just for the record, here is the comparison of two identical files, both the same footage, left is converted to X264, right is the original, using H264.
Here is the comparison of the two files when played; again: Left X264, Right H264: [both reduced in size, to make them fit in this image I also removed the persons, for privacy reasons.] I tried different media players, but all show the same: GOM Player, Windows Media Player, VLC Media Player, Quicktime Player, RealPlayer. Also installing the Full K-Lite Codec Pack didnt make a difference. -
E7-00 Video playing and codec support issues
Gentlemen,
There's a conceptual problem in playing video streams in the E7 (or Symbian in general). There is no video player I could choose the source from except local file system. All web streams are handled by the webkit browser.
The praised codec support is actually mediocre - there is no support for WMV3 for example.
Since 1610Unless another version of the browser is developed and flash support increased that is how it will stay ! I download Video onto my phone and watch when on the go, the reliability of a 3.5G signal is as much a problem as the phone itself, and I haven't found a Video under 2 gig in size that won't play on my E7 as yet, I also carry a 16 gig memory stick with movies on and use that if I have a lot of media on the phone and am running short of space , USB on the go !
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

Error Message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed?
I am trying to get media from my computer, and I only receive this error message :
This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed?
What should I do? I have a window 8 laptop. My video files are from my itouch/ipod. I am using Premiere Elements 7.
I have used this software with success before. HELP would greatly be appreciated!darlingdarleen
Did both laptop 1 and 2 have QuickTime (latest version or any version) installed on the computers with Premiere Elements 7 when you got this "this type of file......" message?
If you go to the opened Premiere Elements 7 projects involved and look at Share/Personal Computer/QuickTime, do you find that QuickTime Presets are shown and that you find export settings choices under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab?
Look at the file name of the video. Do you see any irregularies in the name of the file, dots and such?
If you record new iPod footage, open a new Premiere Elements project, and import that iPod footage, do you still get the error message? Putting aside, iTouch, what model iPod are these videos coming from?
Thanks.

How to solve "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed"?
Hi all,
I've just started using a new computer with WIndows 8.1 within the last week and have loaded my Adobe Premiere Elements 11.0 software into it.
In trying to view and edit a video I created on my old computer, I got "Media Pending" and "Media Offline" notices as soon as I began. The source files are located on an external drive with a permanent letter designation. I began the process of reconnecting my Project Assets files with the source files this morning, but have now encountered a new roadblock. Each time I try, I get the message "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed." It offers no information or options other than to click "OK," which is not very helpful.
All the source files are located in one folder on my external drive. I have been able to reconnect the JPEGs and the mp3 source files but not the AVI video files.
Here are three screenshots. The first is the "Media Offline" message, the second is the message I receive when I try to reconnect my Project Assets to the source files and the third is a screenshot of the codecs installed on the new computer.
Here is my new computer information:
Model: Del Inspiron 3847
Intel Core i5-4460
CPU @ 3.20 GHz 3.20 GHz
RAM 8 GB
System type: 64-bit, x64-based processor
I hope someone can guide me. What do I need to do to solve this problem?
Thank you.

Thank your for the information supplied.
But, what are the properties of this .avi file that you seek?
Video Compression
Audio Compression
Frame Size
Frame Rate
Interlaced or Progressive
Pixel Aspect Ratio
Right now of prime interest is the video compression that is being wrapped by that AVI wrapper/container.
AVCHD.avi
MotionJPEG.avi
XviD.avi
DviX.avi
other
There are instances were a particular video compression or a particular container/wrapper format is each supported by Premiere Elements, but
not a combo of those particular two. But, in this instance, I suspect this to be a MotionJPEG video codec issue, but your details will
point us to the actual situation, and we will plan troubleshooting strategy from there.

I have tried to view videos created in premiere elements 10 and I get the following message: "this file type is not supported, or the required codec is not installed. When it opens there is a red screen in the monitor panel with Korean writing which also appears in the place of each clip in the video. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling premiere elements 10, but that did not have any effect on the video. Do you have any suggestions? I researched codec, but do not understand them at all.

In case you did not find it, the following is a copy/paste of the Announcement on Premiere Elements 19/NVIDIA GeForce
that appears at the top of this forum.
Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing
Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling
back the video card driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow
glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies
to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of
the problems. The typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere
Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports

Are the ProRes codec and .MOV file no longer supported?
I posted the following over at Creative Cow with no luck... hopefully I can get answers here ...
I am on a MAC - I joined the Adobe bandwagon during the great FCP migration of 2011 ... So far it's been great but...
Both Premiere CC AND After Effects CC are not recognizing Pro Res ...heck it doesn't seem like they are recognizing QUICKTIME in general (both progams are rejecting a .MOV I have with the animation codec) ...
When I try and open up a CS6 sequence in CC I get a message saying "The preset used by one or more of the sequences in this project requires third party components that could not be located." When you click ok just to get the project open, the media is offline.
When I try and IMPORT a .MOV into Premiere CC I get "The importer reported a generic error."
When I try and IMPORT a .MOV into AE cc I get "Cannot be imported- this 'MooV' file is damaged or unsupported.
When I try a test render out of AE cc the default Format is Quicktime, but when you go to the Video Output Format Options the Video Codec has the number "0" instead of a list of codecs .... and when you click on the "0" it changes to "-1". Seriously there are NO codecs listed in the Options - No ProRes, No Animation, just the number zero.
Media Encoder obviously is essentially the same story.
This seems to be a Quicktime thing ... not JUST a ProRes thing.
CS6 has no problems working with my Mac and QT/ProRes ... so I know it's not my machine...
I really don't feel like calling India today to process a refund, but if I can't get this working on my Mac I dont need to pay for Adobe CC.Did you know that there has been a major overhaul to prores and where\how it's installed? I've had the same issue, but I ran the following test:
I've installed the compressor, I used the cs6 prores and... ...FAILURE. I was on CS6, and it didn't work... ...Why? Tell ya in a moment... Next step:
I undid the last action by dumping the prores presets. Then I installed the cs7\cc version. Bingo.
I went and researched the problem.
Apple now includes most of the prores specification in the quicktime bundle (except their new 444). It's all in the same bundle. I looked into some workarounds people have used to get it working without pro-apps... ...they all focus on using the older prores which is installed as separate packages... ...and separate bundles. What does this mean?
If you are above 10.7 for your mac os, and you have compressor (latest), you have the prores built into the quicktime bundle. If you are 10.7 or below, and you have the version of compressor for that period (same codec, different file arrangement), you have the prores codecs all in separate bundles. They are inactive but still included in the quicktime bundle for 10.8 and above, so you couldn't use them without the right presets, along with compressor which changes the files to an actual bundle instead of a simple file inside the quicktime packaging.
If you are on later mac os and you have CS5 or above, use the CC version of the presets. If you have the older prores or an older compressor and wish to try and hack it in, you can do it, and then use the CS6 version of the presets supplied by adobe. They point to different bundles in the system. I use both, on different machines. IF you have cs5, you may want to use the "hack" way, and install the prores from older compressor, even if you have the newer one... ...They work faster in cs5 if you use the CS6 presets. Why? I do not know for certain, but I believe it has to do with the 32bit crosstalk. Cs6 starts with 64 and has to "dumb down" to 32 for a connection to quicktime directly, and then, if it finds 64bit architecture, smart-*** up to 64 again. In Cs5 you're stuck in 32 most of the way on the back end. Only a guess.
And when importing into premiere... ...HMM... >>>I had the same problems you had... It wanted to only import audio. If you have the time... Try:
Copy the presets from adobe that are for AME into the proper sequence preset folder of your Premiere app (the previews folder). You should also try and find a way to set up your main sequence edit. Try to remember that an AE import must be:
Fully Rendered into a file, and not linked from AE but from the file itself OR
The composition must be set to the same uncompressed codec (which means you need the preset in the AE app folder as well, finding this will be difficult, best of luck).
Remember to match your preset to your codec. IF you have separate prores bundles, use cs6 versions of the preset, and if you have the latest bundle, use the cC\cs7\2014 versions. This will let AE provide an uncompressed composition, but very slow in previewing, and if you render out, remember to render to a whole file (you can try to render-farm, but you still have to re-render in AME or Compressor afterward, as farm will only render out the frames and an audio file, not the proper file wrapper, even if you specify that wrapper; You have to build the file wrapper from the images and audio after you've rendered any effects). -
Hallo! I use Adobe Premiere Elements 12 on my computer (PC, windows 7). When I try do re-open my projects on Adobe Premiere Elements I get the message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed. The file type of my saved projects is: Adobe Premiere Elements Project (.prel). The same happens when i try to re-open the auto save files. This is very annoying because I losse all my earlier work. I would be really grateful for help. Best regards, Stefan
With the QT Player installation, you should have Apple's H.264 CODEC.

This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.
About two months ago, I was able to edit these files and create videos from them. Now I get the following message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.
Aside from regular Windows updates, nothing has been added or removed from my PC.
I’m using fully patched Windows 7
Premiere Elements 8.0
Canon T2I Hi def movies are .MOVI can't believe that tech challenged moi is replying to the codec issue. I bought a new computer with Windows 7. I won't go into the tech issues with a Windows update.... Anyway I downloaded Photoshop Elements 8 and figured out how to import my photos and videos to Photoshop on the new comptuter. Photos were fine but videos wouldn't play. I got the messages about Apple's Quicktime required and then the "required codec is not installed". I went "What is a "codec"!
I downloaded Quicktime which went smoothly but I still had the "required codec not installed" message to deal with. I researched and found that it referred to compressed/decompressed files(?) Next I googled "Windows 7 codec download" (not even sure if there was one). There was! I clicked on the first result and downloaded the codec. The info stated that this codec should read 99.9% of video files. Went back to Photoshop and clicked on the blue video thumbnail. It worked!!! The video played just as it did on the old computer.
Hope this helps someone else. Now why would Windows 7 not include this codec in the first place. I never had to download one before on other computers. Only Quicktime needed downloading. Oh, well.

CS5 - "quicktime and/or the appropriate codec do not appear"
Hey everyone,
I'm trying to import a video file created in FCP7 into Encore CS5 to make a blu ray.
I've exported my video as a 1080p/24 ProResHQ quicktime (NOT a QT reference, but the full contained QT file), and every time I try and import it into Encore I get the error "quicktime and/or the appropriate codec do not appear to be installed"
I've seen some threads talking about how the solution was to not make it a refernce file, or use a non QT codec, but since neither of those restrictions apply here, I'm stumped.
I'm running CS5 on a Mountain Lion 10.8.1 brand new installation of everything.
Any suggestions?

Cannot reload CS5 from the disc. Support advisor was not able to help.
My CS5 was giving me error messages when opening. CS5 32 bit and would not load at all, but the 64bit was OK, but now is giving me message" cannot load the full program". I uninstalled CS5 32 and 64 bit and tried to load from the Adobe disc but it would not load. I received a message to download Support Advisor which I did.

How do I import files encoded with FFV1 into Premier CS5?
Sorry if I get things a little mixed up here, but I'm still a relative editing newbie and some terms are confusing to me, but here goes!
I've been given a bunch of short video clips that I need to import into Premier CS5. Trouble is, they have been (I am told) encoded with the FFV1 codec, and when I import them into Premier all I can see is the audio track and no video. Other than asking my friend to re-encode the files (over 200) in a different way, is there some workaround to get these files working in Premier?
