File uses unsupported video compression type "icod".

Report · Dec 18, 2018

Hi,

I opened a project in the new update 2019 Premiere Pro. I have a stockpile of b-roll videos, stills, and graphics that I use for projects. Now I am getting an error.

Unable to import video (insert location on hard drive)..... (.mov)

The files are HDV Apple Intermediate Codec. These have been used in various projects over the years.

Is there a fix that doesn't require converting the footage? Premiere Pro not deleting the ability to use these files would be the best choice.

Thanks,

Jason

That could be one of the QuickTime codecs for which support no longer exists.

You may have to install an older version of AME and transcode them all to something more usable in the future.

I'm partial to Cineform.
