    Hi,
    I've imported a video in Premiere, but when I play it, it's not fluid. How can I fix this?

    Notice: the video is fluid when I play it with Windows Media Player.
    Thanks

    What format is the video? If it's AVI, use GSpot to get details of the file and post a screenshot here - there's more than one type of AVI and Premiere doesn't work with all of them

    What version of Premiere are you using?
    There is some corner of a foreign field that is forever England: Telstra Stadium, Sydney, 22/11/2003.

    Carpe diem.

    If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room.

    Hi etibo
    It is absolutely normal that video and sometimes audio in Premiere is not fluid. But it will be OK when you play it, after editing and/or transcoding in MPEG2, in any other (software or hardware) players.

    MPeg2 or other compressed formats* behave this way until you render the timeline.

    Try "Render Work Area" for a part of the clip (using yellow bar) to see the difference.

    The full timeline needs to be rendered before you can use "preview" under "timeline".


    * If these are "supported formats" they should play real time in the "source" window.
