Hey all,
I'm making a frag movie for someone at the moment, but I'm having trouble with the video format created by Wolfcam and Adobe Premier.
What happened: I started making the movie on Mac OS X. I upgraded to a really powerful gaming PC and decided to move the project across into my new Windows machine. I quickly noticed only the first 7 seconds of each clip would show up in the time line, the rest is grayed out.
I did a LOT of searching online, through google and forums. I finally found one answer: Use virtualdub to re-save every single clip. So that's what I did, I set up a batch routine to re-save every single file, it took ages.
Finally I opened up Premier to check, and bam! it was fixed. I did a lot more work, exported a new version with more footage etc, happy days.
or not... I left it a week or so, came back to it today and would you believe it? All the clips are back to 7 seconds long again. I have no idea why this is happening. Someone surely would have come across this before.
I hope someone can help, thanks.
edit: some more (maybe helpful) info. If I normally double click the files and open them in Media Player Classic, they only play 7 seconds. But if I load them in VLC, they play the full length. So this isn't a Premier specific issue it seems.
