When I try and open an HQ file in AE it gives an error message "no avi compressor"....I have tried uninstalling and building back from 4.0 to 4.51c with no joy. I knew I should have left well enough alone.

Lost Codecs In AE

I had the version just before 4.51c on the machine and had the error message trying to import into AE and could not export to anything Canopus out of AE(codecs just not there)....I saw the other thread and I think it was you who suggested an uninstall so I uninstalled everything and deleted the program file folders as well as application data files and started over with 4.0 off the CD and then 4.51c...no luck. I thought 4.51c would install over 4.0 so why do 4.24? Not even sure I still have it. I am beginning to wonder if AE is the problem because the codec has to be there...anyone remember where the VFW stuff is at in windows explorer?

Hey Randy, I had this happen with AE7. The Canopus HQ codec was not showing up on my Storm2 machine.
If you want to see what codecs your computer has just go to Device Manager > Sound video Game controllers > Video Codecs > Properties tab. If Canopus codecs show up there, it's worth trying to reinstall AE. Make sure to delete the AE folder from Program Files after uninstalling.

ive tried edius and cant see this codec on windows or any other program. it is hardware related?
i would like to use an mpeg2 i-frame codec...

I am not able to import any Matrox Axio encoded video into AE7 and I dont know what to do now.
If try to import any Matrox HD or SD encoded files I get the following error:
"After Effects error: no such AVI compressor"
Please tell me how can I "reload" the Matrox compressors back in to AE7? Can reinstalling of AE7 solve the problem?
Please help
