Video imports at 1000fps, should be 60fps

Hey folks,

I'm currently having an issue where a video I'm trying to work with is importing into premiere as 1000fps, although the source video is actually 60fps. The length of the source video is about 22 minutes, and when imported becomes about 1:20, the audio being completely normal. When I go into modify and change the video to 60fps, as would be expected the video begins to play normally but the audio becomes very slow and lofi.

Is this an issue with the source video, maybe it was recorded with a variable bitrate instead of constant? Let me know if I'm leaving out any important details. Any help is much appreciated!

My friend screencapped himself playing a game, using a program called Streamlabs (I'm editing his video, or trying). So it's a screen capture


Use the https://handbrake.fr/ open source transcoder/converter to create a new file, and see if that file will edit

Screen capture programs "often" produce video that won't edit well, or at all, in Premiere

Exactly what is INSIDE the video you are editing?

Report back with the codec details of your file, use the programs below... A screen shot works well to SHOW people what you are doing - For Windows Internet Explorer press the PRINT SCREEN button on your keyboard, and then do CTRL-V to paste the screen print from the clipboard into a forum message

- when you analyze your file in MediaInfo and post a screen shot in the forum, do so in TREE view

Excellent, thanks for that. Here's the output:

It looks like we can rule out variable bit rate
