AVI & Element: Edit AVI in Adobe Premiere Elements 13/12

Today, I sat down and tried to record gameplay. When I was done recording, I compressed the video file using the XVid Codec. This is when the problem starts. When I open up Premiere Elements and try to import the file it won't work.

The error is: "This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed".

Is there a different codec I should install or should I try another professional video editing software? I'm not sure why a payware like Premiere Elements wouldn't read it.


AVI is a container also called wrapper, it is the codec that is inside that determines whether or not it will be supported. Well, it comes down to codec, various codec’s play a role in almost every AV file. You may noticed that, AVI can play pretty well in Windows Media Player, VLC Player or QuickTime Player, but can not work with Adobe Premiere Elements.

Adobe Premiere Elements is built around a DV-AVI workflow. (DV-AVIs are AVI files that use the DV codec.) This means that DV-AVIs flow easily through it and place the least strain on Premiere Elements. Unfortunately, not all AVIs use the DV codec, just like you record gameplay with XVid Codec, and many (such as video from still cameras) can cause real problems for Adobe Premiere Elements.

If you get AVI files in other codec other than DV codec, it is sad to say that you are refused to import AVI to Adobe Premiere Pro for editing unless you convert AVI videos to Adobe Premiere Elements supported videos.

To solve all of the Premiere Elements and AVI issues and save your time to understand these complicated codecs and download them for video editing in Adobe Premiere Elements, a simple workaround is to convert AVI to Adobe Premiere Elements edit-friendly format.
