Video Doesn’t Load Into Premiere Pro When Importing Clip. Only Audio Does

[jealousy91]

Whenever I try to load a clip into Premiere Pro, the video part of it doesn’t load; only the audio does.

I tried to fix this by going to C:/Program Files/Adobe/Common/Plugins/7.0/Mediacore and then deleting all the files within the folder, and it worked at first but then the problem happened again.

There are probably some specifics about the clip properties that are coming into play.
Open the video in mediainfo, put it in text view, and post the info here

Don't upload a text file of the results,just a text pasted upload.

Possibly the program doesn't like Windows Media (wmv9) in AVI files
I don't have any such files nor do I have Premiere but you could
Probably convert to an intermediate lossless and use that with A.P.

For example, open the source in Vdub2,
https://www.videohelp.com/software/VirtualDub2
select video/compression/FFmpeg FFV1 compression
Hit Configure and set it like this. Ok out, File/Save Video,
save as type avi

Perhaps somebody else will confirm and/or have other advice
