Premiere is not reading my .mpg video files

I am trying to import .mpg files from my camera but it gives me the following error message:
unsupported format or damaged file.
How do I get those files into Premiere CS4 for editing? Its for a school project and I don't have much time.

First, use G-Spot to find out what CODEC is used in your .MPG files. It will tell you the name. Chances are good that you just do not have what is required, installed. Use the name that G-Spot gives you to locate what you need on the Internet. That should help you, though even with the proper CODEC, you might have more obstacles ahead. Still, you will have a start.
I'll bet that you have an MJPEG file and need either the Morgan, or the MainConcept MJPEG CODEC. Until we know, however, we're only guessing.
Good luck,

Can Premiere Elements NOT re-encode a video file

I want to take 200 HD camcorder files and put them on a Blu-ray disc with a basic menu structure.
I know Premiere Elements can do the menu structure. My question: Is it able to use the video files without re-encoding them? (The source files are 1280x720, H.264/AVC, 29.97fps.) I can't test this using the trial version because it watermarks the video.
If PE can't do it, am I overlooking some simple way of doing Blu-ray menus using the Creative Suite products? I have used Premiere Pro and Encore to author BDs, but that involved setting up every element of the menu structure by hand.

I offer the following Adobe documentation that I found online for Premiere Pro CC features that you seek and that Premiere Elements does not have.

Lightroom 4--4.1---4.2 will not accept .mpg video files

Lightroom 4, 4.1 and 4.2 will not accept .mpg video files. I have to Convert these files from .mpg to mp4 in order for any of the lightrooms 4--4.2 to accept the videos. Yet in the http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/video-support-lightroom-4-3.html it states : Extensions supported---MPG, so why do I have to convert all my video files to mp4??????

A particular file extension doesn’t dictate the actual video and audio codecs in a particular video file. I expect what is happening is that LR doesn’t understand one or both of the codecs and it needs the file converted one a set it does understand.
Did the videos work in LR3 but not LR4?
Can you play the original MPGs in QuickTime?

I Insert a .MPG Video File, but it does not work in Director... any Xtra is needed?

Hi. I have a .MPG Video File that i can see in other players
fine, but when i insert it into a Director movie, it doesn't work,
I don´t know if i need any Xtra or something. it´s my
homework to my University.
I need help.
Thanks.

Depending on the version of QuickTime installed, you can
insert an MEPG1
file using a #quickTimeMedia cast member.
Alternatively, you could use the MPEG Advance xtra from

I have an old mpg video file, taken with a very early model "smart phone", that opens and plays fine in my newly "rebuilt" iPhoto library. I cannot open, edit it or share it with any other software. How can I fix it, to be able to do anything with it?

I have an old mpg video file, taken with a very early model "smart phone", that opens and plays fine in my newly "rebuilt" iPhoto library. I cannot open, edit it or share it with any other software. How can I fix it, to be able to do anything with it?
Detail:
I've recently purchaced a 4TB Thunderbolt drive to store my "vast" music and photo libraries. iPhoto had an issue reading the moved library, so I bought and used iPhoto Library Manager to "rebuild" it. Apart from much of the original data such as date taken & camera used etc, it appears to be working well. The aforementioned mpg video was taken some 9 years ago, using an early model "iMate" smart phone, and opens and plays fine on iPhoto, but I cannot open it with anything else, (I've tried iMovie, VLC players, Wondershare and Handbrake) nor can I share it. I just want to edit it, and share it with family.
Any help would be appreciated...

No - not iMovie, VLC, Wondershare or Handbrake... Quick time starts with a "CONVERTING", then I get
I've looked at the "tell me more" links, tried downloading some of the movie players there. I'm begining to think the file is corrupt.
Thanks for getting back to me again though - appreciate it...

MPG video file importing as audio HELP!!!

MPG video file importing as audio HELP!!!
I am using Premiere pro CS5 trial version. The videos I have are in .mpg format and play fine in other programs. When I import them into Premiere they are importing as audio files.
I have a week to get this project done for uni and Im freaking out! It worked on the uni computer before christmas but isnt working here, its the same program and same operating system (windows 7).
What am I doing wrong!!!?

You are doing nothing wrong. The trial version does not support MPEG. The full-paid version has no such limitations, and also comes with a 30-day, money-back guarantee, so if you do not like it, you can return it for a refund.
The limitations of the trial version are HERE.
Good luck, and welcome to the forum.

Mpg video file to iPad

itunes for some reason wont allow me to add this mpg video file in to library. i even did the copy/paste and drag/drop but nothing happens. updates are already done. im trying to move this video file to my ipad so i can use it on app called minimal folio. im using a 1yr old PC/laptop. please help.

When you try to sync it to your iPad do you get an error message? Have you tried the option in the Advanced tab of iTunes to Convert To iPad and Apple TV Version? What are the attributes of the mpg file? where did you get it from?

I am not able to add video files to my itunes after installing itunes 10.7

I am not able to add video files to my itunes after installing itunes 10.7.0.21

I Have been using, Ipad for only around a month or so (Ipad 2), and it was only yesterday that i tried to use the Itunes. I first downloaded the latest itunes (10.7.0.21), and took backup of all my Ipad data.
After this, I wanted to add some video to my ipad, as it was essential to add the same to My itunes first, I roceeded to do just that. I went through this command {File - Add File to Library}, and then went on to select the Video file. There's just a flicker, and then nothing happens at all - the itune screen remains, and there is no error message too. Whereas, I can easily add Audio Files.
After this, I even downaload the latest Quick time (7.7.2), as I had read somewhere that the same is necessary. When I tried to open the Video file in Quick time, it did not open. After that I downloaded the codec DivX and DivX player. Though the Video plays in DivX, it refuses to open in Itune and does not play properly in Quicktime (slider moves, but sound and video is not there).
Frankly, I am utterly confused.

I purchased an audio book from I tunes but when I sync with my I phone it respond with error saying could not read or write the file. It only sync parts 2

Those videos are probably not in an iPod-friendly format. It’s picky about that. You can try converting them, if possible.
As for the audiobooks, are you sure they haven’t synced? You’ve enabled it to sync books and checked the “Audiobooks” section of your iPod?

Contribute could not read the shared settings file.....

We are using Contribute 4 via FTP connection. Suddenly, I
have one user today that is getting the following error when trying
to connect to things she should have access to.
The error: "Contribute could not read the shared settings
file for this Website because the file has been corrupted. To
re-create the shared settings file, an administrator must
administrate the website again."
As a sidenote, this user had recently been sent approximately
41 files for review, I have no idea if there is a connection or
not. This feature has worked fine for them before.
Anyone see this problem before? I did check and I have other
users that can access and edit the Website just fine. It seems
specific to this one user.
Thanks - Lainie

I think this has something to do with the PNG plugin.

Adobe Acrobat XI will NOT read aloud any pdf files

Ever since I upgraded to Marvericks, Adobe Acrobat XI will NOT read aloud any pdf files. How can I fix this. It previously worked fine.
I create tagged pdf files in InDesign to be compatible with 508 accessibility standards.The files read aloud on a Mac with OS X Lion but not on Mavericks.

no, still no resolution. It is very frustrating. I did have one 8 page document that it will read the first page but nothing else.
Did you find an answer?

Bought a new camera and Photoshop advises me that it can not read my type of file.. Its canon 7d mark 2 and the extension is CR2.

Java.lang.InstantiatiCould not read mime-mappings config file: ./mime.types

I am about to had enough of this moronic container call OC4J that's compatible to to itself.
I did a
1. clean unzip and installation.
2. setup admin account.
3. config the autodeploy in server.xml (Who in their right phreakin mind design a container with no hot deploy nowaday).
4. configure the data source.
5. test data source using a webapp with one page jsp do a JSF jdbc connection.
When try and deploy the error-free webapp (tested in tomcat) using both frontend and autodeploy,a cryptic error occur: could not read mime.types.
I have never see this error before in my life. its in oracle.oc4j.admin.internal.ApplicationDeployer.addApplication
This error happened after I configure my webapp to do phreakin orion-application.xml disable toplink, orion-webapp xml prefer local class file. If I don't get this resolve within couple days, I'll put my career on the line with full force and request we do not use OC4J anywhere in this group.
A M$FT .NET project looks very promising and efficient compare this deployment hell they call OC4J

Thank you Steve for your help. I really do appreciate ppl taking the time to answer questions from n00b like me.
I tried and disable global.libraries and global.tag.libraries when deploy, and at one point the login page (its Spring 1.2.8 + hibernate 3.1.3 + Myface 1.1.4 + acegi 1.0.1 ) came out, but cannot login and without exceptions, so I was guessing acegi poblem. But the spring and hibernate is working, I can see the conn and other activities. And after a couple tries, cannot even get the login page display now in MyFace, with exceptions:
include(java.lang.String) in javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext cannot be applied to (java.lang.String,boolean)
And then after some googling found out there will be code change for this webapp as well.
- change webapp.listener for double instantiation in OC4J (Code Change)
- create new class OrionSessionListener implements HttpSessionListener for session invalidation (Code Change) NEW JAVA CLASS
- acegi j_security_check URL reference change (Code Change, but minor)
I think the container has great performance, but I just wish they can look more to the compatabilities/common practices issues
