Premiere CS5 Imports Only Audio from AVI from HD Camcorder

I recently purchased this camcorder and recorded some video in 1080p HD. The camera saves its video in .AVI format. When I go to import the files into an HDV 1080p30 preset project sequence, Premiere only recognizes the audio. A friend of mine suspects that it's because Premiere doesn't recognize "the AVDHD stream within the AVI wrapper." Does anyone have a solution. I uploaded a sample video clip here. Any insights would be much appreciated. I'd hate to have to send the camera back because it seems really nice aside from this issue.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Hi,

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
Leonardo

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.

How to import only "missing" E-Mails from backup?

Hello everyone!
I have a problem with mail. I set up a new MacMini (w/ Mavericks, i7, 2014) from a backup of an older MacMini (also Mavericks, i5, 2012). I used the migration client and it all looked just fine, when I first started working on the new system. First thing, which was odd: I had my project folder with LOTS of content lying on the desktop (some 14 GB, a few thousand files in multiple subfolders). I noticed, of those 14 GB 12 GB went missing. No problem - I just copied the files from my old system (which I still have and which still works).
However, after I've been working with the new system for a couple of weeks, I noticed the same thing that happened to my project folder apparently happened to my (local) E-Mail folders. Again, the folder structure is still there, but tons of (mostly older) e-mails are missing. Since I've been working with the new system for quite some time now, the above-mentioned "delete and replace" approach is out of question, because all new e-mails, which I filed in the local folders would be lost.
As I still have my old system as a backup, it is no problem for me to retrieve all old e-mails manually. But is there a way how I can import only those mails, I have lost during migration? Or in other words: How can I sync the new and the old mail folders while avoiding duplicates and keeping the folder structure as is?
Every comment is highly appreciated! Thanks in advance..!

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
          Envelope Index
          ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. ClickOK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Itunes import only plays 1 song from album

I just imported an album to my ipod following a purchaese from itunes. When i moved the songs to my ipod only 1 song will play. If i select another song the ipod always takes me back to the song it only wants to play from this album. Btw the songs do play on my computer ... just not on the ipod. Also its the first time i've imported music from itunes. Any ideas? thx.

Are all of your songs checked? To the left of each song title there is a little box. There should be a check mark in each box for the songs to play continuously. (If you don't want a song to play, you uncheck it.) If your library became unchecked, you can easily recheck everything. Go up to the top line in iTunes, select Edit>Select All, then go to a song in iTunes, right click, and choose "Check Selection".

How to import only rows of tables from from a dump file

Good day,
I have impoted a schema from a dump files with option rows=n,(accordingly it should import only structure of the tables)
now i want to import rows for these tables in that schema. Kindly guide me how to do that. I have used below syntax for import.
imp userid=system/manager@testdb fromuser=abc touser=abc file=d:\abctest\
abc.dmp log=e:\abc15.log buffer=100000000 ignore=y constraints=n grants=n statistics=none rows=n;
Any help willbe much appriciated.
Regards
Ansh

Hi Sybrand,
Thanx for the suggestion. Actually it is my fault that I had not explained the whole scenarion.
Let me explain it one by one...
(1) First i was importing a schema with rows=y option and I was getting some constraints error(can not insert NULL value in 'not null' column of some particular table) and import was unsuccesful.
(2) Then i desided to import only structure of the tables in that schema, and later disabled that constraint which was creating the problem.
(3) Now I m willing to import the data in these tables using that .dmp file, using rows=y, and this was my question if i m doing it in a right way or do i need to do some further step.
Hope this time i have made picture more clear.
Thanx a lot Hans and Sybrand
btw no wall around so can't bang my head :)

Can't get h264 footage to import, only audio?

I'm brand new to Premiere. I have a simple project to edit and thought it would be perfect to get my hands dirty in CS6.
Unfortunately, I've already run into some problems.
• I can't import any h264 footage. I primarily shoot on a Canon 7d, and have a lot of 1920 x 1080 h264s. I was hoping to edit natively, as this is one of Premiere's selling points -- but when I import the footage, it shows it as an ".mov" file, yet no video plays, only audio. In fact, it won't even display a frame rate for the video -- rather than reading 23.976 like it should, it reads "48000 Hz". Why is it only reading the audio?
These files play normally in quicktime.
Any help?
Separate question, but regarding the same project.
This footage was shot in 24 fps, but just looked at final export requirements and I'll need it in 30 fps.
• Should I edit in 24 fps, and then try to somehow convert to 30? How?
• Should I edit in a 24 fps or a 30 fps sequence?
• What options do I have with 3:2 pulldown vs compression?
• Any recommendations of what point in the process i need to do a conversion or compression.
Again, I'm working in Cs6 on a Mac.
Let me know any other questions regarding specs.
Thanks!
Jennie

Hi katevers34 - welcome to the forum!
I have found that giving those portrait pics a very minor edit in Photoshop has fixed the problem - any adjustment at all, perhaps a slight colour shift. Now you may not have Photoshop, but doing the same thing in iPhoto would most likely suffice as well. I'm sure that in iPhoto you could select all of those pics (Command-Click on each one) and in the Edit > Adjust window, make a minor change to them all in one action e.g. a tiny sharpness adjustment.
Post back if it doesn't work for you.

Why is Premiere Elements importing only 2 minutes of a 40 minute video?

I just bought Premiere Elements 7.0 and installed it. I tried to import some videos off of a DVD which I created on my DVD burner hooked up to my TV (the files originally came from my video camera). The files are listed as .VOB on the disk. When I imported them into Premiere, they all show up, but the length shows as 00;01;14;05 (1 minute 14 seconds, right?). It appears to be only importing the first couple minutes. These are 40 minutes or more on each video.
I also tried copying the files over to my hard drive, renaming them as .mpg, but same thing happened. Premiere can recognize and import them, but only the first couple of minutes. Weird thing is, if i open the files through Windows Media, WM will recognize the full length and play the entire video.
Any help I can get will be much appreciated. I bought an $80 book to teach myself how to use this software, but it doesn't address this issue. Thanks.

Here is an excerpt from a reply on VOB's from another forum:
Let’s go back to the basics just a bit. As has been stated, a .VOB file is a "Video Object File." As such, and by the DVD-specs., it can contain quite a bit of stuff. Some of this is beyond just the Audio & Video contained in the usually present MPEG-2 file, which is hidden inside the VOB. This VOB can contain subtitles, Menus, and ROM content, to name but a few. With simple VOB’s, one can often play them, if they are just renamed to .MPEG, though not always. In the case where this works, one does not need a DVD software player. Any player program that can handle MPEG can play the file.
The structure and elements of a DVD-Video DVD-5 (4.7GB, single sided, single layer) will be in most cases:
AUDIO_TS folder (usually empty, as it’s really a carryover from the never fully implemented DVD-Audio). May also not be present.
VIDEO_TS folder, which contains VIDEO_TS.IFO (Video Manager.info), VIDEO_TS.BUP (VMGI.backup), VTS_01_0.IFO (Video Title #1.info), VTS_01_1.VOB (Video Title #1.video), and more of these, incremented by 1. Depending on the number of "titles" on a particular disc, the numbers can range up to the limit of 99. For Projects from most NLE/authoring programs will only have one "title," so you’ll likely not see more than 4 VOB’s and their accompanying IFO’s and BUP’s. The VOB’s will be approximately 1GB in size.
The title of the "movie" inside the VIDEO_TS folder will be contained in the .IFO and the BUP files. If you open up a DVD-Video in Windows Explorer, you’ll see just the folders, and no name, or anything else. The same is for the file names inside the folder(s). They will look the same for all DVD-Videos, though the exact number of these will differ, depending on the structure and number of discrete titles on the disc. It’s not until one opens the DVD-Video in either a software player, or in a set-top player, that the IFO files will play, allowing the player to then access and work with the .VOB’s, via the instructions that are contained in the IFO and BUP files.
Editing a VOB can be a tricky, as it can contain all those different things. Ripping the MPEG-2 file from the VOB is usually the best approach. That is what PE, or other NLE’s (Non Linear Editor) attempt to do. Sometimes, it works fine, but sometimes it does not. Another problem can be when there are multiple VOB’s, as the MPEG-2 files can span multiple VOB’s, as they cannot contain more than about 1GB of data.
Once one has edited the Audio & Video contained in the .VOB(s), the process to get the resulting Project back into DVD-Video form is to Burn to DVD. This is the authoring process.
Three things happen:
1.) The edited file is Transcoded to MPEG-2. If you were working from a VOB already, the Audio & Video material has already been Transcoded to MPEG-2, in which there will already be compression of the data. If you do this again, there will be more compression of the data, resulting in a loss in quality. Some NLE’s can do "smart rendering/encoding." None of the programs from Adobe can do this, as they are designed to work with material captured from a miniDV tape camera. While they can handle other footage, there will be compromises. When designed, DV-AVI Type II was chosen as the base workflow, because that was what most miniDV tape cameras produced. The introduction of flash memory, miniDVD, and hard drive cameras, plus the introduction of HD, has changed things a bit, and will continue to change them over the next versions of the programs.
2.) The folder structure and the necessary files are created.
3.) The above material is then physically Burned to a DVD-Video, or is copied to a folder on the computer in the required, and necessary form and structure.
In the case of the former, one can then play the DVD-Video via a software player on a computer, or on a set-top player hooked to a TV or display device. In the case of the latter, one needs a software player to play the files in the VOB, with the instructions coming from the IFO, or the BUP files.

Video is not importing, only audio

I am trying to import a video to do a couple really quick edits (I just need to trim a few seconds off each end and would like to use a fade in/out transition at the beginning and end), but when I import the video, it doesn't work. I can hear the audio playing, but I only see a static frame shot for the video. Nothing ever changes/moves.
First I imported it as a .mov file, but then I read somewhere that .mov doesn't play nice with iMovie. So I converted it to an mp4 movie file. I can watch both (undedited) versions in Quicktime without any issues, so I don't believe there is anything wrong with the original file or the conversion.
Any ideas of what I am doing wrong?

One thing I forgot to mention: The original video was shot on my Nikon D7000 in HD and was imported into Lightroom for a couple quick color corrections. Then it was exported from Lightroom. The exported/edited video plays perfectly in Quicktime. So there is some sort of breakdown between in iMovie's capability to import the video.

IMovie imports only audio - video is gray/green

When I import videos from either my iPhone or iPhoto library, the video shows up gray or green.
I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch with 8 gb ram.(Early 2011 model)
How can I resolve this issue?

I can't find any reference anywhere to a Samsung SC-D363 ..perhaps there's an error in the model name or number.
Any device which creates videos on SD storage should automatically copy them into iPhoto when you start that up with the device connected via USB.
Or, if that doesn't work, connect the Samsung and look in your Mac's 'Applications' folder for the 'Image Capture' program: that should recognise the camera and import from the SD card.
With either of those methods - but especially with iPhoto - any movies which are playable in iMovie can then be imported from iPhoto.
iMovie can play MPEG-4 videos (..mini videos which have been saved in MPEG-4 format ..see your Samsung's instruction book to find out what format the camera uses for movies..) and it can play some .avi and other movie formats. In some cases, though, you might find that the video plays OK, but there's no sound. In those cases you could try playing the movie(s) using the QuickTime program.
If your Samsung is a normal DV camcorder which also saves mini-movies to the SD card, then you'll be able to use a USB cable to copy the mini-movies, as described above, but you'll need a FireWire/DV/i.Link (different names for the same thing) 4-pin-to-six-pin cable to copy normal DV video from the camcorder to your Mac.

Uncompressed AVI from SMOKE/FLAME to Final Cut

My current problem is importing (and viewing) Uncompressed AVI from Smoke/Flame/Inferno on a Final Cut Pro system. The audio plays but the video does not. I also find that when I export an Uncompressed AVI from Final Cut through Quicktime Conversion, I am unable to view the video on my own system. What is going on here and what am I missing.
This conversion must be done on the Mac, no PC alternatives please.
Thanks in advance.

This AVI is coming from a Smoke or a Flame, as uncompressed. Basically the workflow will not allow any change in format from the Smoke / Flame, as it works with everything else in the pipeline.
Any suggestions on getting it into final cut...
I notice it plays through VLC but not through Quicktime.

Adobe premiere elements 13 can not open avi on my Mac. What can I do?

I just bought adobe premiere elements 13. I hoped that it would help to open an avi on my brand new Mac, which iMovie of course did not open. (That's why I spend the money on premiere!) I got the file from a disc, and I don't know what kind of camera took the pictures. Premiere 13 should open AVI's. What is wrong?

franks
Premiere Elements 13 Mac should be an .avi import only. But, avi is just a file extension (container/wrapper format), which wraps the video and audio compressions of the file.
Although the program might support a particular video compression and a particular file extension (container/wrapper format), it may not support the combination of a particular combination of video compression with file extension for a file.
What are the properties (video compression et al) of your video file with the file extension of .avi?

CS5 not reading a DV-avi file. Fine in Elements 3...

Screenshot from Elements 3. This clip will not play in Premiere CS5. But other DV-avi files play fine in CS5, but some of them dont. Why?

My guess would be that the clip that plays fine Elements but not in PPro is a DV AVI Type-1, which PPro does not like. PPro edits DV AVI Type-2, however, which is what I would guess the other clip is. That might explain the interleaving difference.
Try using the GSpot utility (http://www.headbands.com/gspot) to get more information about the files than Elements is able to tell you. If it is indeed a Type-1 AVI, you can convert it to a Type-2 AVI with a number of freely available utilities. Just search for "Type-1 to Type-2 AVI converter" and you should find plenty.
