Default MPEG-2 Problems
Anybody know why my Mpeg-2 encoded video is not importing correctly into Premiere. It says its fine importing and plays fine in the left hand window, but when I place it on the timeline I only get a black screen - .avi are fine. Any ideas?

Andy, Premiere doesn't like Mpeg files. you need to convert it to DV AVI first and then import. Check out Section 9 in the FAQ.

Cheers
