Summary: Problems occurred when importing H.264 files to Pinnacle Studio. You can fix importing issues by reading the following guide.
H.264 is not a stranger to most people, essentially all of the electronic digital products now support this encoding format. And various extensions of its capabilities have been added in subsequent. The intent of the H.264 project was to create a standard capable of providing good video quality at substantially lower bit rate than previous standards, without increasing the complexity of design so much that it would be impractical or excessively expensive to implement.
Pinnacle Studio supports a wide rang video formats although. It is pretty picky with the codec of what it’ll accept. As far as I know Pinnacle Studio doesn’t like H.264 files. If you want to import H.264 to Pinnacle Studio flawlessly, I recommend you to convert H.264 to a more editable format for Pinnacle.
The video format that Pinnacle Studio support:
AVI File–(.avi)
MPEG Files–MPEG-1, MPEG-2 SD & HD, and MPEG-4 – (.mpg, .mpeg, .mod, .mp2, .mp4, .m2ts, .mts, .m1v, m2v. mpv)

DIVX–(.avi)
