    I am having the exact same problem. I have read all sorts of forums and have no been able to find out the problem. I am using an .avi file too. When I watch the video in Any Video Converter everything matches up fine and the video plays out without skipping. I can watch it in iTunes and Windows Media Player with no issues as well. However, when I import it into Adobe Premiere CS4 it only plays the sound. I can see the first frame of the video, but it does not play. My video was an old "home video" that has been converted to DVD and then ripped to my computer into MPEG-4 video format. I read somewhere that it was best to use .avi format, so I downloaded Any Video Converter and converted it to .avi. Also, I have tried using Virtual Dub 1.9.9 to crop the video into a smaller segment, only 15 seconds. This resulted in the same issue, so I don't think it's a matter of the size of the file.

    I have tried downloading codec packs too, with no luck. Also, in Any Video Converter it says the video codec is xvid, so I tried downloading a xvid codec. I am not sure if I have too many codecs so they are not working. I have read that that can be a problem. I am not very familiar with how the codecs work and how to remove them either.

    Additional info: I am running Windows 7 with a 2.10 GHz processor. I have 4 GB of RAM and a 64-bit operating system. Any HELP would be greatly appreciated! My aunt recently passed away and I am trying to make a video with clips of her along with pictures for my Grandparents and family and this issue is just really frustrating me. I made a similar video a few years back on a different computer and had no problems.

    Thanks,
    Michele

    You may try to get a plug-in help you, I would recommend you this importer for Adobe Premiere, it is the import plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro users and lovers who want to import FLV, VOB, AVCHD video (MTS, M2TS), MPG, RM, RMVB, MKV, TiVo to Adobe Premiere for editing and composing with other files.
