UNABLE TO READ IMAGE FILE: GDI STATUS INVALID PARAMETER

I am getting this error repeatedly on all projects from the moment i open premier. I believe it has something to do with the MOGRTS that were pre-installed because i no longer can see any preview of them. just that they are installed.  but i am unable to find any way online to solve this issue. 

 

I recently had to re-install everything on my computer including windows but all of my files were backed up on drives and re-connected when i got it back and i did not open any programs until all files were back in their original places to ensure no corrupted files. 

 

Can someone help?

If that doesn't work, then I would like you to close Premiere and navigate to another folder: 

  • Win: /Users/username/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Common/Motion Graphics Templates

This work!

I got this GDI error, then Premiere started to stall my gpu with any imported video...

Did what you suggested, only worked for text based ones....

Suggestion, that kind of worked....

 

I have a laptop with i9 14hx and 4070,

 

- Got to preferences and disabled hardware acceleration h.264-h.265 code/decode in both processor and gpu

- Imported media, restarted premiere

- Enabled only gpu decode, restarted (thumbnails slowly playing)...

- Enabled gpu encode, restarted....it kind of worked...

FYI:  My problem went away after I used Creative Cloud to update Premiere Pro to the latest version v24.2.1 (Build 2).  Thanks!

Hey,

Sorry for the poor experience. Do you still need help with this issue? If so, please let us know if you see this issue with a specific project or source file. Please also ensure that your GPU is updated to the most recent Studio drivers.

 

Thanks,

Ishan
