Hi,
At first, I was having the pretty common problem of having AVI files not rendering but rather showing up totally black so I read the stuff on uninstalling the codecs that were conflicting. I saw on the clip properties that my compressor was using Xvid instead of dvsd. So I killed Xvid in the Sound and Audio Devices and searched all Xvid drivers and erased them.
Now I have a new error when I try to import an AVI into Premiere. Its "cannot open file. File uses unsupported compression format" and I just found out not even VirtualDub can handle it...the compression format evidently goes by the name of DX50 or DirectShow. Can someone help me on this? I've just installed Premiere a few hours ago and now I got this problem. Help would be much appreciated.
