Premiere Pro :: Converted Canon EOS MOV Files But Still Crash At Import?
Dec 28, 2013
I read the FAQ on files not importing but am afraid I am having a weird problem.I converted my canon's .mov files to several types :avi,mpeg, and mp4, but they still cause PP to crash every time I try to drag the imported file into the source panel.
I am running HP on Intel Core i7 2630 QM CPU with 6 gig RAM and 64 bit Windows 7.
Deets on the AVI file that caused the crash:
data rate 20000kbps
fps 29
1920x1080
lenth 56 seconds file size 97.7 mb
I have a new MAC running 10.8 IOS and Lightroom 4.3. I also have a new Canon 5d Mark III. According to documentation Lightroom should recognize RAW files on the camera for download into Lightroom. But while I had success with only importing a single image amid multiple attempts, I cannot. Files are not recognized or cannot be converted to DMG for import. I took the card and put it into my old Rebel XT camera body, and it very slowly worked.
I have been using Lightroom with the old XT camera with no issues. Now I have a 1000 CF card and I can't get this to work from the camera. I have oredered a card reader which I have seen in other groups is supposed to solve this, but quite frankly: what the heck?
When I try to import my raw files to lightroom 5 and convert to DNG i get a message that says: "Could not copy files to requested location." and "Files could not be written" I tried converting the files to dng using Adobe DNG converter then importing them to lightroom but they still won't work. Photoshop CS6 and Camera Raw both read the files fine. I just prefer to use Lightroom.
I have attempted to both import and convert to DNG RAW files from a CF card with images taken on a brand new Canon D5 Mark III. None of the images can be imported and an attempt to install the current version of Adobe Camera RAW plug-in also failed. The error message reads "The following files were not imported because they cannot be read. (3)".
Update: I've now tried to import files from a newly-formatted SD card and am having the same problem.
I am trying to import CR2 files from my canon 450D into Lightroom 5. Lightroom says 'preview unavailable for this file'. I cannot get past this. I have tried importing directly from the camera, and also from an external hard drive that I managed to download the photos onto. Also I am working on a Mac.
Last week I was happily using LR4. I joined CC and downloaded LR5. Now i cant import any photos. Infact when i request import it sees the camera/card but then fails to show any thumbnails. I canont even import from a previuosly downloaded folder. Bridge CC see the files fine.
When I import raw canon cr2 or Nikon NEF files, I cannot see the previews.
The progress bar gets stuck on building smart previews and I see a greyed out box. When I choose one greyed out preview box and go into develop then the preview appears and I can edit the image.
I'm trying to import RAW files shot from a friend's Canon 5D Mark III, but have been unsuccessful. It gives me the message "the file is from a camera which is not recognized by the raw format support in lightroom"
I normally import RAW files from my Canon 7D, but for some reason it's not recognizing these files.
Trying to upgrade from CS5 to CS6. Upgraded one NLE and found CS6 will not import DV files that were used with CS5. Can't believe Adobe missed this one! We create many DV files each day that can't be used with CS6. Any sort of conversion would just add another unnecessary step. Do I need to stay with CS5
I've just tried to import a bunch if .avi files into Adobe Premiere (OSX) but they all failed due to missing codec. Is there a way around this? I've looked at some other threads but don't understand it all and i'm on a bit of a deadline.
I've currently installing it on my windows box as i know OSX doesn't play nice with avi anyway, is it likely to work?
The avi files have multiple streams -2 camera angles are recorded, when they are loaded both show and play in sync so i'm worrying about converting to another format.
I recently moved to CC in order to be able to work with Blackmagic's DNG raw files inside Premiere Pro. The move was successfull, I could work with such files. However, all of a sudden, I cannot import them into Premiere Pro. First, I cannot select the files and import them as a sequence, because the box will not activate.
Second, when I click on the folder containing the files, Premiere tries to import them, but then an error message appears saying "file format not supported".
I have seen other discussion threads about failures to import Blackmagic Cinema POCKET raw files, but I am working with files from the 2.5K Blackmagic Cinema Camera, which should give no trouble. In fact, as I said, I was perfectly able to work with them.
I have introduced no changes in my computer or the CC Suite, so this sudden error is all the more puzzling. The wav file will get imported, but none of the DNG files will.
I work with Adobe Premiere Pro CC, and I am able to import the MP4 files from my Galaxy S3. The video files are very good quality. The problem is that the videos do play, but they are really choppy and freeze alot. Is there any way I can makes my MP4 video files run smoothly?
I have tried a couple of things to try and get Premiere to see the AVCHD files. I have copied the all the files over from the Canon Xa10 individually and the "Private" folder and then tried to import. Still couldnt see them. It seems like its not a supported file type. PP should be able to do this shouldn't it?
I currently am running Premiere Pro CS5 with Windows 7 64Bit
My assistant and I are working on 2 different computers tied to a server. We need to be able to pass sequences back and forth. Unfortunately, Premiere seems to be adding the associated media files with each sequence import. Our project has fast become a mess of duplicate media. Also, I noticed this "new feature" listed on the Adobe site: An option has been added to not consolidate duplicates on import.Will this fix this problem?
Just opened a Premiere project and went to edit a title. Although the title still shows up as a purple clip, and is still in the same location in the project explorer, it is no longer able to be edited, but instead plays like an AVI file. Also, it seems the underlying video and title have been merged into one clip on the timeline instead of two overlapping clips.
Screenshot below: See in the project explorer where the title files have been converted, plus in the timeline how all videos are compressed on Track 1 as a newly created avi.

When importing 300 raw pictures from the camera with LR5, the software crashes 10(!) times. I import the pictuers to a external HDD. The pictures where converted to the DNG-format.
When importing with the photoloader from mac os x everything went fine.
I recently lost 11 days on a documentary project due to Premiere's crashes, instability and refusing to launch (including almost 6 hours of Adobe tech support in India remote controlling my iMac, trying in vain to fix the issues).
I decided to give Premiere another try today, thinking Premiere's problems might have been related to the Canon XF300 used on the documentary project. Would I have better luck with different media?
I planned a very simple project: different camera (8 clips shot on Panasonic GH3, in the 72 Mbit All-I MOV mode), different media (2 AIFF audio files).
I made a fresh project, and imported the GH3 clips from the media browser. When I tried to import the 2 AIFF files, Premiere crashed.
Now I can’t even get Premiere to launch, despite rebooting and trashing every cache and Adobe preference I can find (user application support, user preferences, and ~/documents/Adobe). This happens with or without plugins in the Mediacore folder (I use all of Red Giant's plugins and quite a few of FXFactory's).
Are there any other secrets to get Premiere to launch? Now that I am locked into the CC subscription, I would like to at least have a program that can launch.
I hate to be negative, but my experience with Premiere has been absolutely horrible (and costly). And every other Mac-based editor I know who has tried Premiere CC is reporting the same instability. Especially for us television editors, stability is FAR more important than new features.
When rendering footage in the latest version of premier pro on MAC OS X 10.9.2 no matter what sequence or timeline I am in, premier keeps crashing every time I try and do anything. I have plenty of memory on a brand new MAC computer but it continues to just crash.
Premiere was running fine for most of the weekend, then began to crash every time I tried to open the project. Other projects open briefly, followed by a crash within 5 minutes.
I'm seeing Premiere Pro CC (7.2.1) constantly crash with a few projects when I try to export. The common thread (as I can see) are that they were all started in earlier versions of Premiere.
I'll finish editing, then hit Ctrl-M (or Export -> Media), and Premiere sits idle for a moment, then it crashes. Importing the project sequence in AME allows for encode though.
Checking the event viewer in Windows turns up that the ntdll.dll might have something to do with it.
I've recently come across from FCP to Premiere Pro CS6. I've also acquired a Canon XF100 camera (the output being MXF files) and have been shooting some HD test footage which is 1920x1080. However, the project I will be shooting needs to be exported as a PAL SD .MOV file, as it is to be used for broadcast by a non-HD community station.
I have tried many different sequence and export settings to create the SD .MOV file, but in nearly all of them I keep getting blurring lines across the screen. I am now not sure if I should be shooting in SD or HD... I thought that I could shoot in HD for a better image before rendering out a SD final export.(I used to do this in FCP)
I've recently been brought on to a production (hour long doc) that's pretty much already been edited to time (picture locked), however at the time of the editing they didn't have a broadcaster. Now they do have one on board that's requesting delivery in 60i.
All the footage was shot at 29.97p with a 5D Mrk 3. The show was started in Premiere CS 6 but they upgraged to Premiere CC. I know that it's now possible in Premiere to change the sequence settings of a pre-existing sequence. I was just wondering what would be the simplest way to convert the footage / timeline to 60i from 29.97p footage sititng in a 29.97p sequence. Do I have to re-transcode all of the footage in the edit? or can I just change the sequence settings and have premire treat the 29.97p footage as 60i? I assume this wouldn't change the running time of the edit since I'm just splitting the progressive frames into fields.
