Hello,

I'm new with Premiere 6.5 and I'm currently teaching myself how to use it.

I've uploaded 40 min of video from my home camera and when I import the video and drop it on the timeline the video doesn't play, it jumps the picture around. Also the timeline time and the duration of the video don't match.
But the audio is fine. And the whole thing plays in the tiny preview window!

I've tried loading as a Multimedia Video For Windows, PAL Standard 32kHz, PAL Standard 48kHz and PAL Video For Windows - but I doesn't change anything!

I'm using the programme on Vista.

Any advice?

Thanks inadvance.

You need to capture your video into Premiere as a .avi file.

I'll give that a try, but I didn't think it would matter as the video is an .avi file anyway on my computers hard drive.

You list your capture file as a Video for Windows file, or a VFW which I think is motion JPEG (correct me if I'm wrong) and not an .avi file. Also Premiere 6.5 is very old software now at this stage and may not work properly with Vista, that could also be the reason why you are getting problems. Download a trial version of either Premiere Pro CS2, or CS3 or Adobe Premiere Elements 3 as they all work much better with current OS's.
