Hi,

I am Sanjay.

I seem to be having this issue of whenever I import .avi file into Adobe Premiere CS6, it's only uploading the first one to two minutes of the file as opposed to the entire 40 minutes. I have found absolutely no answers as to why this may be or anything remotely close to what I'm looking for. I need an answer to this otherwise, I cannot edit the material I need to. Because of the nature of said video, I am unable to re-record said content so any help would be highly appreciated. I tried many things like format my hard disk and reinstalling premier and os, even I changed the hard disk and graphics card, I also checked the same file in another pc but the problem is not solve.

I have tried it to convert in virtualdub and the file is working but converting the file takes more time and its use more space. Please suggest me the solution without converting the file.

I have doubt about codec issue but not getting any solution for it please help.

Posting here to help others that have problems with APPro CS6 only importing a small amount of a huge AVI.

The reason I bother with this in the first place is that I finally came around to digitizing my old VHS, Video8 and DV-tapes.

My DV camcorder has a S-Video to FireWire on-the-fly converter that hooked right into Windows Movie maker capture.

Also I got hold of a Digital8 camcorder that also reads Video8 and Hi8 and has a Firewire output.

The resulting AVI files has minimal compression, but are huge. A 3hrs VHS is almost 40GB.
They are however type 1 AVI containers, and I stumbled upon this little gem that coverts them to type 2 AVI that APPro CS6 is happy to import (the whole thing). No noticeable degrading of either video or audio. Resulting file is slightly larger than the original.

The program is completely free & very lightweight and is called DVdate (only 2MB, no install)

Google it and you will find it easily. Version at writing is 7.1

I can't understand exactly what you trying to tell me.

I am beginner in premier and I faced the problem, I had told the problem to some of my friend who know premier and they told me to some solution but I can't get proper solution so I raised the question in forum.

let me know what should I do ?
