Re: Media Player plays file, Premiere won't import it!!?

That's a complicated question..

You said:
"However MEDIA PLAYER WILL PLAY THE FILE!!! How can Media Player play the file, but Premiere can't read it???"

It's probably a compressed MOV file.

Premiere is ideally suited for files that utilize editing codecs such as DV, HD, or uncompressed. You can even edit MPEG files, although I don't recommend it.
Media Player is made to handle editing and delivery codecs such as MPEG, WMV, DivX, etc.

Are you recompressing compressed files?

It would be helpful for us to know what your output specs are and what codecs you are using.
Are you making a web video, or a DVD or something?

For editing on Mac or PC, QuickTime uncompressed is usually a good bet. If you're on a PC, editing with AVI uncompressed is also good.

Vince
