[djmattyz]

it wont import certain videos, how can i fix this?

[Kartika Rawat]

Hi there!

Sorry about the trouble. What's the source of the media files? Could you share the file to test?

Let us know.

Thanks.

What files are you trying to import?

What formats?

Are you getting any error messages?

[djmattyz]

in this case its a mp4 downloaded from youtube   the error message tells me that it cannot import AV01 file

so, all i get is the audio, but not the video

i understand youtube is not the ideal source for any video footage, but in this instance its necessary

[MarekMularczyk]

It may be an issue with a codec used for the video.

What if you try to import this video into Media Encoder and convert it to MP4 using a standard H.264 codec and then import it into Premiere?

[Ann Bens]

That is correct, Premiere does not support AV01.

Load the file up in Handbrake or Shutter encoder and convert.

No point in loading it up in AME as if its not supported by Premiere nor will AME.

Convert make it not smooth anymore, I think YouTube try to prevent reup somehow

[MarekMularczyk]

Can you clarify what you mean? As far as I'm aware, YouTube wouldn't support AVI anyway as it's too big and losless...

I have the same problem, but i record my clip with OBS as mkv, remuxed it to mp4.
It allways worked, but not now - Can someone help?

[Ann Bens]

You will have to select a different codec for the mp4. av01 is not supported, as said before.

[MarekMularczyk]

You need to use H.264 codec.
