importing AVI to Adobe Premiere Pro, the AVI videos can’t be played an edited smoothly in the program.

Searched widely and I got some tech support for loading AVI files into Adobe Premiere Pro correctly.

1. Select your imported AVI file from the project view in Premiere and then
2. Go to File > Interpret Footage.
3. Inside the Interpret Footage dialog box, check the Ignore Alpha Channel option.

This makes your AVI file completely visible. If the video still appears blank, try re selecting the clip in order to refresh the video viewer.

Another possible cause of reduced image quality when importing video into Premiere is Frame Blending. Right click on the video and uncheck the Frame Blending option.

I tried the solution, but the video playback is still jerky. I’d struggle to find another good one. In this try, more than one people suggest to convert AVI to a Premiere Pro most compatible format e.g. MPEG-2, which will ensures a perfect AVI importing, playing and editing workflow with Premiere Pro CS5/CS6.
