I don't know what happened. Initially everything seems fine. Then when I use loupe view to see video, the view only shows the left top corner (about 60% of the length and height). And I can't change (zoom out) back to show the whole video.
I have been unable to import video to Lightroom 4 from my Canon 7d (.mov files). I could import without issue using Lr 3.x. I would be able to do quick edits of photos and videos all in one place for friends/family events.
Lightroom 4.2 won't import video, not from a Nikon D800, Canon 5D Mark II nor an iPhone. I just get "There is a problem with the video file." The files are fine, and somewhere in the past I was able to import videos. So what's changed?
I have videos from Canon FS100 (SD video in .mpg). I can view/ playback in windows, Adobe Premier Pro and edit them also. But LR40 cannot import them - no preview , and when I import it says "There is problem with file". Tried reboot / quicktime update erc. No effect. LR3 can import and playback these files!
I just noticed that I can no longer import .MOV files from my Nikon D800 into Lightroom 5. I am running on Mac OS X 10.8.4 on a Macbook Pro, LIghtroom 5.0, Camera Raw 8.1. I plug the camera into the USB port of my macbook pro (don't have a SD slot on my macbook pro)
When I click import in Lightroom the .MOV files don't even show up at all in the import dialog.
When I tried to import video from my iPhone 5, they showed up on the import screen and I was able to succesfully import them.
I just installed Lightroom. Lightroom will not import any of my video files. After import fails to import them into the lightroom library it tells me "there is a problem with the video file" and it lists all of my videos.
I have LR4, and Windows 7. After installing LR4, I could not import mov files. I rebooted, and no change. I have 8 GB of ram, and a duel core Intel processor. I tried to associate the mov files with LR4, and I tried moving the files, first on the SDram card from my Nikon D7000, then to the local hard drive. The result is the same. I try to import just one mov file, and nothing else, but the result is the same. There is a problem with the file. Each file tht LR can not open, opens fine with media player, or any other player installed on my system.
As I screen video clips in Lightroom 4, I'd like to be able to view the timecode numbers in the window so that I can log the footage. Can this be done?
I have hundreds of JVC Everio video files that are natively created as MOD files on the camcorder. However, I can copy them to my Windows 7 system and simply rename them as *.MPG files and they play fine in Windows Media Player. I noticed that Adobe Premier Elements can import MOD files, but I get a "There is a problem with the video file..." error message in LR4.2 when I try to import the renamed MPG file. The Import function won't display MOD files as a valid file format, but the MPG files do appear in the Import browser list.
Below are the specs from the MOD file renamed to MPG.

I have an issue where videos aren’t importing into my catalog, but the videos play fine on the machine. Forums suggest that there might be an issue with the video cache, and some threads suggest I try to purge the cache. I go to Preferences > File Handling > Video Cache Settings > Purge Cache, and I get the dialog:
The Video cache is being purged. This message with be dismissed when the purge is finished.
I’ve let that message appear for 24+ hours, and it still doesn’t go away.
My questions: Where videos don’t import? How to manually purge the video cache through some other method than the Preferences UI? .
I have several hundred videos I have taken, either with a Canon SD800, Canon S95, Canon T2i or a GoPro.
New videos I take on this equipment works just fine when adding to Lightroom. But when I try to import older files, I get error: video file not imported with the quantity in parenthesis.
I have tried purging the video cache, I have tried task manager - disabling dynamiclinkmanager and dynamiclinkmediaserver. Occasionally I will be able to import one or two videos after doing this but then it hangs up again.
Running Win7, LR4.1.
I don't have anything else up and running when I do this.
After I've upgraded to OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion, I begin to see the following issue while trying to import .mts files from my Panasonic GH2 SD cards:
1. LR no longer sees individual files on the SD card. I know that this is because ML has decided to treat all AVCHD-related directories as packages and LR can no longer see the indivisual .mts files from the file system. However, Premier Pro CS6 CAN.
2. Even after copying the .mts files to an unrelated directory, LR is no longer able to import the files. I get the "There is a problem with the video file"
3. The .mts files I previously imported into LR 4.1 with Lion no longer plays inside LR. I see the thumbnail but if I attempt playback I get the "there was an error working with the video" error.
There obviously major compatibility issue with LR 4 and ML in relation to video files. I relies on LR for all my video file cataloging needs - now I am unable to do so. All of this was working just fine with Lion.
I have M2TS video files stored on my computer. When I import a file into LR4, I have no sound. I also tried importing files directly from my Sony camcorder, but still have no sound.
Is there a way to disable lightroom 4 from importing or processing any file with a video extension mkv, 3gpp etc, as its really slowing down my workflow.
My typically workflow consists of pulling my files off of my memory carsd manually via explorer (into a specific folder under a root folder which I create manually). I then synchronise the root folder in lightroom.
Unfortunately LR4 seems to take over and hour to do this since I have a lot of uncateloged videos. LR fails each time to catalog the videos.
LR3, since it didn't support video, was blazingly fast and performing the same operations in LR3 takes minutes as oppose to hours.
I have lightroom 5.3 running on Windows 7 64-bit. I am unble to import AVCHD video files from my Sony DSCRX-100. I am not sure why, as lightroom 5 supports this video format.
So far the only way I have discovered is to laboriously click the checkbox on each image I want to import. It seems that one should be able to select a range with one click (e.g. holding down Shift and then clicking the last image in the range) or by using a context (right-click) menu. No dice.
I run a HP DV6 Laptop with Core I7 and Windows 7. While editing my photos my computer appeared to over heat (which is a recurring issue that I'm working to resolve) during mid-post production. Upon restarting my computer, and when I accessed the same photos, I got a very lengthy loading icon when I clicked on a photo under the "Develop" tab. This problem recurred and in attempt to resolve the problem I decided to delete the library and re-import the files. Upon re-import, I cannot view all the photos in the library grid view. I'm not sure if my files are now corrupt from the sudden crash or is it just a data issue with LR?
I've attached a screen shot of what the problem library looks like...
I'm in the process of evaluating several video editing programs. So far I've used AVS Video Editor, Cyberlink Power Director and Adobe Premiere.With each program I've spent 30 minutes making a quick demo video to see how intuitive it is and how well it performs. Today I downloaded Corel Visual Studio and decided to give it a go.
I've run into a problem straight away.I've tried to import raw avi files.So I'm using the "Select Import Source Folders" screen.When I navigate to the folder containing the files the OK button is greyed out and won't work.It's greyed out all of the time.
I try to import a video to Photoshop CC to turn it into a Gif, but when i try to import it, it comes up saying cannot import on this version of windows but the previous Photoshop was fine.
I forgot I have v11.5 and am getting some good results creating my own SmartScene menus. Can I import DVD-video to use in a new DVD and make minor in/out changes without it reencoding? Otherwise, I'll have to dig out my backup of avi files and start anew since the original source is Hi8 and can't be re-encoded.
I'm trying to import a MPEG video from my camcorder into after effects, but AE says that the video is "corrupted or unsupported" and won't load it. I've tried taking it and exporting it from Premiere Pro and i've also tried just importing it as raw footage and it won't load it either way.
