Premiere Pro 2.0: Losing audio in .mov files

I'm using Premiere Pro 2.0 on a PC (I know, it's time to upgrade)
A client sent me some short .mov files supposedly shot with a Canon camcorder. They play fine in QuickTime outside of Premiere. But when I import them into Premiere Pro 2.0 and begin to trim the clips, the audio plays for about 5 seconds, then it goes silent for the remainder of the video.
Does anyone know why this is happening and, more importantly, how I can get the audio to play correctly in Premiere Pro 2.0?
For what it's worth, once they are in Premiere, the properties say that they are "12000 Hz - 16 bit - Mono"
Many thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

Report back with the codec details of your file, use the programs below
For PC http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ or http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en
Once you know exactly what it is you are editing, report back with that information... and your project setting, and if there is a red line above the video in the timeline, which indicates a mismatch between video and project

Premiere Pro CC not playing fair with .mov files

I have a CC account and use Premiere Pro on my PC with no issues so far except that the RAM and Graphics card suck. So I decided to run on my laptop running windows 8 rather than 7.
AE runs with no issues (so far), but when I use Premiere Pro it does not like .mov files for some reason.
I imported files from my iPad and it gives me this message:
Error Message
"The FIle Has no Audio or Video Streams"
To work around it for now, I converted the file into mp4 and imported to edit from there. Now issue is that we need to place a lower third. I have an AE project as the .mov file imports into that no problem, but when I then export as quicktime file for the alpha channel it still will not import into Premiere Pro, same error message.
I can export as .avi but then the file screams 'MASSIVE' as it is over 1.5gb cpmpared to the 32mb as a .mov file.
Bottom line, cannot get any .mov to import into PP on my laptop even though it works fine on my PC. Also, .mov files play fine in AE??
Please HELP

Hi MartinSalteruk,
Thanks for contacting Adobe Forums,
As I understood you are only getting issues with .mov files, Please check if you Quicktime player installed on the system.
if not click here to download the Quicktime player

Premiere Pro CC freezes when processing some .mov files

I'm new to Premiere.
I just got some .mov files to be edited. I'm not sure how they were created.
When I try to do anything with them Premiere freezes and I have to force it closed and then manually kill Adobe QT32 Sever.exe in order to restart Premiere.
If I can get a clip to play, the video freezes but the audio plays.
The Media Pending screen shows in the thumbnails when mousing over the clips in the bin.
Just importing all the clips into a project will freeze Premiere.
Quicktime Player plays the files ok.
Loading the files into VideoPad results in a 4 second clip. That is, every file ends up being just the first 4 seconds when VideoPad imports it.
I do not have this problem with other .mov files from a Nikon D3100.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for your reply, Jeff.
The MOV files are client provided. He emailed me today that he recorded them on a consumer camera that created AVCHD files which he converted to MOV through a free utility he found on line. Sigh.
Since Quicktime Player plays the individual files he didn't know there was a problem until they were given to me to assemble into a finshed piece. As the clip numbers are not sequential, I'm guessing there was a committee who looked at all the clips and chose the ones they want in the final product and only those were given to me.
He said he could copy the original files onto a DVD (hopefully he has the entire contents of the chip so I will get all the files that were created as this knowledge base article indicates).
I tried Handbrake and what I get is a split second of live video which then freezes as the audio plays out. :-( I, too, suspect the fault is in the multiple video data types.
Thanks again for your input.

Premiere Pro CC 2014 will not import MOV files

As of about two weeks ago, my Premiere Pro CC 2014 stopped importing my Canon MOV files. Never had a problem before. I've had to edit in CC to work around this. They import fine there.

Jim,
I've looked up all sorts of MP4/MOV comparisons on the web ... most conclude that mov is perhaps a bit "safer" on an Apple OS and mp4 "safer" on a PC and non-Apple "devices", but generally list the contents of the two as being nearly indistinguishable. I do realize the Qt has had ... issues ... within the Adobe programs, especially on PC's.
You have any other good info? Always looking to learn from the more experienced ...

My newly reinstalled Premiere Pro CS4 is unable to support .mov files. Is there anything I can do?

The files were supported when I created the project on a college computer in a previous version of Premiere in 2009. I have tried downloading quicktime and restarting so far.
Cheers,
-Ewan

Installing Quicktime, usually but not always the latest version, is supposed to permit editing MOV files
But, exactly what is inside the MOV file, and what camera did you use?

Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
Keep copies of the originals.
Another option might be to try to install Perian. Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

Premiere Pro Does Not Support Audio-Only Capture For Some Formats, Such As HDV?

In the PPro CS 5.5 Help file under, "Recording audio", it says:
"Note: To capture an audio-only file from a digital video source, choose Audio from the Capture menu in the Logging pane of the Capture panel.
"Premiere Pro does not support audio-only capture for some formats, such as HDV."
I'm shooting in HDV and if I want to capture audio only, would I just need to switch my setting to DV?
The only thing is my Canon HV20's HDV audio is MPEG-1 Audio Layer 2, 16 bit, 48 kHz.
My DV setting is PCM audio, which I think is a better quality format, right?
Would there be any noticeable difference?
Thanks.

Capture your HDV material in the normal way and just drag audio only from the source monitor to the timeline.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 classroom in a book lesson files "file format not supported" error message

Hey y'all. I have the creative Suite cloud membership and am learning Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and have the latest update. I have an iMac, version 10.8.2 and have been going through the lessons 1-8 so far from the 'Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Classroom in a book' with no problems. So far so good. Then, when I opened Lesson 9 project today, I realized that certain media was off line (see pic below-videos and maps) even though I had been able to open the project. I tried to see if it was a link issue but was unable to select the 'Link Media' option and the system did not give me the option to link media when opening a new project. The strange thing is that I am now able to open some lessons with everything working fine but when I try to open other lessons such as lesson 9 or 10 or 11 I notice media files offline after getting the "file format not supported" pop-up error message when attempting to open a project. It's random as some lessons I had opened previously now give this error message of file format not supported when they didn't in the past whilst others work. I have deleted all the lesson files from my hard drive and reinstalled them from the cd onto my hardrive but the issue persists. Any idea as to why all of a sudden Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 is giving the error message "File format not supported"??? when opening the lessons. I have not changed any preferences. I've included some screenshots though I don't know how much help they will be... Is anyone else running into this issue??? Can anyone help???
NEVERMIND. I FOUND OUT ON MY OWN WHAT THE ISSUE WAS AND IS NOW FIXED. YAY!

Why were you trying to link a file in the project to the project file itself? Shouldn't it be a video file or something? Like .mov .wav .avi .mp4 and not .prproj

"Error: Final Cut Pro was unable to read the movie file just captured"

Hello everyone!
We had a computer crash while we were working on Final Cut Pro and backing up some media to a hard drive.
Since then, whenever we "capture' video footage and hit the escape key to stop capturing - we get -
"Error: Final Cut Pro was unable to read the movie file just captured"
We reinstalled the Final Cut Pro software all over again thinking that maybe the software got corrupted and we also rectified any disk permissions for the hard drives.
Any ideas?
Thanks

You eventually want to figure out how that happened and make sure you fix it.

You reformatted the external drive, yes? You might not have used the correct initialization setting. Should be Macintosh HFS, journalling is optional. Or you have a drive formatted for Winderz.
Aside from incorrect drive formatting, we have seen this error if the capture is incomplete or improperly terminated.
It's not an FCP issue, it's hardware.

Premiere Pro 5.5 crashes when importing mpg file

Premiere Pro 5.5 crashes when importing mpg file.
I can get the file to import if I first right click the file and tell it to "open in source monitor" then tell it to import.
When I do this it indexes the file. After it is done indexing is when I can then import the file.
Should I not just be able to tell it to import and it does the indexing?
These files that I am tryig to open were with Premiere Pro 4.

Welcome to the forum.
What are the specs. of this MPEG file? Might be something in those, that is causing an issue.
Good luck,
Hunt

Hi Phillip,
You should be able to open a Premiere Elements Project in Premiere Pro CC (Windows only), however, I tried it and found the results were not very acceptable for use as a backup. Can you try it first?

Premiere Pro CS6 only importing audio .mov

Recently I've exported an XML file from FCP7 which seems to have translated well into Premiere. However, I am having trouble reconnecting the media onto a PC.
When I import the files into the project, only the audio plays, and not the video.
The files are XD Cam footage .mov
Outside of Premiere the files play perfectly in VLC player.
Any suggestions? I am a Premiere newbie.

[Below is copied and pasted from the other thread. As it's still the same problem, I'd like to keep it all here.]

I tried creating a new Premiere project and importing the same files, and now I'm receiving an error code saying the codec is missing or unavailable.
Any suggestions why I am having issues importing .mov?
I am using Windows 8 Pro and Premiere Pro CS6.

Premiere Pro CC 2014 QuickTime Audio and Video Syncing problem

Hi everyone,
I am having and issue when I import QuickTime video into Premiere Pro CC 2014. I've just started doing some editing so I am very new to all of this. I recorded video in Photo Booth on my mac. I exported the file to a .mov file and imported it in to Premiere. When I play the file in premiere everything is fine up until halfway through the video. The video starts to play faster than the audio and everything is off. When I play the video in QuickTime everything is fine. I don't know if I did something wrong when I imported the file but I am hoping for some help. Thank you.

I would be willing to bet the video is recorded as VFR, variable frame rate ... in other words, it creates more frames per second when it needs to for keeping up with screen changes, and less when it doesn't see much changing on your screen. This saves bandwidth of course, BUT ... PrPro is not setup to work well with VFR footage, it really needs CFR, constant FR. So ... highly recommended if your capture program doesn't allow setting CFR is the free program "Handbrake", which you can google for. Use that to convert the footage to CFR, then import that into PrPro.
