Premiere issues
Of course this issue has been addressed on the doom9 forums, but it's never been successfully corrected or answered. This also seems to be a recent problem, with V1.0 of XviD. Maybe one solution caused another problem?
Anyway, here's the problem.
Distro:
DShow filter: N/A
Computer: 1.4GHz Athlon, 512 RAM, 32mb Radeon 7000 Series
Premiere 6.5
When playing a preview - or even generating a preview - from the timeline, Premiere shows a blank screen over ONLY the XviD-encoded clips with the XVID FourCC. If the clips have DX50 or DIVX, they play just fine (and hence, I have it set up to encode my preview files using XviD). But with XVID, they show up blank - preview files, too. If you encode the preview files using the XVID FourCC, they turn up black in the preview window over ALL clips. However, if you open the individual preview files in WiMP, they play fine. So, Premiere encodes right, but it won't play them if they're tagged as XVID.
Unless you open them individually and play them in the clip-viewing window. It'll play the clips just fine there, XVID tag or not.
Obviously, it also exports the files this way, too.
There was an earlier version I originally used to put together the video, but when I went to work on it some more on a new computer, it wouldn't open the files right. Difference? New version of XviD.
If you don't completely understand the problem I'm having, I can quite easily take a desktop video of the problem and host/post it
Thanks!
