Top half of video is missing on imported WMV files. Running  CS3 & Win XP Professional

Top half of video is missing on imported .WMV  files. I'm running CS3 Adobe Premier Pro with Win XP Professional OS
Hi all,
   I just installed my Adobe Premier Pro CS3 for the very first time. I then IMPORTED a WMV file into the Project Frame and  then Dragged & Dropped it into the Time Line. All the windows (or Frames) Project Frame, Source Frame and the mini-Project Frame show this video with the top half missing. I’m running Win XP Professional with the latest Service Packs installed.
Please Help.
Thanks
Derek

After Searching the net for a while here, I found a solution to the "Half Screen" problem!
The half screen video problems seen while trying to play WMV files in my CS3 Adobe Premiere Pro program seems to have been due to a recent Windows software Security update made to it’s Windows Media Player programming. As soon as I removed that update, my WMV files now show normally within Adobe Premier Pro.
If you wish to uninstall this Windows Patch / Security Update on Win XP Machines:
No#1 Prior to removing/un-installing the file, shut off "Windows Automatic Updates" and set update preferences to manual. Thus in the future you can select which Updates you want to instal (and which one not to instal)  *remember to ignore the KB2834904 update in the future! That is at least until Widows fixes this Security Update / Patch.
A) Go to "Add/Remove Programs" in Control Panel
B) In the Add/Remove Programs, check the "Show Updates" box located at the top of that window
C) Scroll down to "Windows XP Software Updates" and within that section, scroll down to "Security Update for Windows Media Player" KB2834904 (mine was dated 7-10-2013)
D) Click on the REMOVE button and re-start your system.
If using Win 7 Operating System: to remove this Patch / Security Update the file to remove is: KB2803821 - In Windows 7, go to "Add/Remove Programs" in Control Panel, click on the "View installed updates" link in the left sidebar, search for KB 2803821 and click REMOVE.
Good luck everyone!

  • Half my video track missing after automatic transcode in Encore CS3

    I'm using the automatic transcode option on a MS DV-AVI file about 2.5 hours long. After transcoding, half the video is missing from the timeline and the project size is less than 2 GB. I can revert the asset back to AVI, and then the video reappears. I've tried re-transcoding several times now, and keep getting the same result.

  • How to import WMV file for use in adobe programs, especially After Effects and/or Premier?

    How to import WMV file for use in adobe programs, especially After Effects and/or Premier?

    I have the latest adobe creative cloud and i'm using Mac 10.8.2
    My client gave me a wmv file that she wants some people blurred out in the background but when I go to import the media, it's greyed out. I'm assuming that After Effects will be the best solution for this, but maybe there is another way.
    I can purchase a video converter and convert it to .mov but that costs extra money that I don't want to spend just to do this one project.

  • Importing WMV files into iTunes/Converting files

    1) How can I import WMV files into my iTunes library? I know iTunes can't import protected files. So is there no way to put those videos on my iPod?
    2) I tried to converting a Movie Clip by right clciking on it and pressing 'Convert Selection for iPod' when I imported it. But there's no audio. What's the problem?

  • Video clips missing after import Please advise

    I am new to this whole video editing and just learning. Before taking it to an editor I tried to import a DVD I had transferred from a VHS tape. All the video os on the DVD that was made but when i convert took the DVD and imported it I am missing about 5 minutes of footage that I needed.
    I read by using the disk utility and selecting the disk and then select new image it was able to transfer into readable files for Imovie. But in the import window there is a time stamp that says 9:58 seconds but I am still missing several minutes of video. What am I doing wrong.

    Hello again,
    I just converted one of the H.264 QT movies to 'Apple Intermediate' and now the both video and audio assets import just fine.
    So, I must assume that the problem has something to do with H.264, but any light that can be shed on this would be appreciated.
    Cheers,

  • Imported wmv file now shows only half the image

    Hi
    I have a standard animation I use at the begining of all my Trailers and DVD. This plays ok on the PC, but today when I imported it to a new project the animation only shows the bottom half of the image rather then the whole image. It seems to be the top half when plaid in the monitor. The sequence is the same size as the animation. Even if not, the animation shows like this in the source monitor before imported into a sequence. Can anyone help? Thanks

  • No video, only audio when importing .avi file into CS2

    I recorded 920p footage on a GoPro Hero 3 at 50fps. GoPro recordes MP4 files, I wanted to edit the footage in PP CS2 as it gives me more control than GoPro studio.
    I used GoPro Studio to convert the MP4 files into avi files and amended the white balance and saturation etc, as I recorded using Pro Tune which gives a flatter colour profile.
    The avi files run well in Windows Media Player (although don't seem to have the clarity of video's on the GoPro website!)
    I have then imported the avi files into CS2 to put together the edit and I can only hear the audio and can't see the video in the source stream or the program stream.
    I assume I have a setting wrong in CS2, could any one advise what I need to change to get the problem rectified?
    I was planning on exporting the finished problem at 720p if makes a differance

    Also, CS2 has a different forum http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premierepro_previous

  • Cannot import WMV files, converting to FLV reduces volume

    I've got an MP4 video that I can import into PowerPoint/Presenter just fine, but it fails when I try to import a WMV video.
    I've tried using AME to convert to FLV (but don't think I should have to, should I?), but then the volume is not as loud as the original WMV is.
    Another related question ... are there any options for the video controller/scrubber that Presenter adds to video? If I insert a video natively in PowerPoint, it adds a much more elegant controller under the video. Presenter puts a big, clunky one on top.

    The volume change is most likely due to a setting in AME. I would agree that bringing in a non-flash video in to Presenter is not ideal. This is because the inline video converter is too simple for my taste, but it can do an ok job if in a pinch. I know there are some good free video conversion tools out there, but I have always used (and liked) the AVS video converter.
    As to the video controller/scrubber, I'm not sure what you are seeing. With the published version of your presentation, the video should be controlled with the presentation play bar. The only time I see any other play bar is when you do a slide show (F5) preview of the presentation. But this is not representative of the output of Presenter.

  • When importing WMV files, I only get the first few seconds of my movie.

    I'm trying to do some color correction on a wedding video.  The video was captured using Windows movie capture software and saved as a WMV file.
    The file is about 700MB and 50 minutes long.  When I import the file it the Project tab says the duration is only about 25 seconds.  When I preview it, still only 25 seconds will show up. It's doing this for every video of the wedding that I import.
    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    What version of AE and with what compression settings were they captured? Premature stream endings usually points to VBR encoding, which AE doesn't particularly like. The files from Movie Maker may also contain program-specific data such as edit markers, which also could be mis-interpreted by AE. Check such things and perhaps try differnt settings. Failing that, simply use VirtualDub and similar tools to convert to conventional AVIs or otehr suitable formats.

  • Importing .wmv files

    Dear community, please help.
    I need to import a bunch of .wmv video files into my project on Mac-based Premiere CC Pro, and just realized this format is not supported...My frustration is hard to describe. Please HELP! Thank you so much! With best regards. Mike.

    Mike,
    You were in the "Hardware" forum. I moved it to the Premiere Pro forum. That's where you are now.
    BTW, Macs do not support .WMV files. It is a Windows format. Take a look at the plug-in "Flip4Mac" to get this functionality into Mac. It's been this way for quite some time now: Windows Media Components for QuickTime - Overview - Telestream Flip4Mac
    Thanks,

  • How do I remove the watermark when importing WMV files into Premiere Pro?

    There is some metadata that adds a media player watermark to my WMV files when I import them into Premiere Pro. I can play the original WMV videos with out the watermark on VLC, but the watermarks show up when I play them on Realplayer. So I know there is something that reads the watermark into the video file and I want to know if there is a way to turn it off in Premiere. I can convert the wmv with Any Video Converter and there is no watermark, but I'd like to avoid this step if I can.

    Unfortunately my client doesn't know how the videos were created. My guess is that they were created using some free screen recorder. Most of the videos are recorded PPTs.
    I've checked the microsoft site, but haven't found anything relevant.
    Thanks for the suggestion.
