dumbofab isn't freeware/libreware sadly and only allows for 3 minutes of video if you use their free trial so for heavy/lengthy files its not an option in the slightest
The fact that simply changing the file extension from MKV to AVI sometimes works makes it even more embarrassing. And the fact that Premiere did implement experimental MKV support back in 2018 and then removed it again indicates that Adobe is managed by incompetent people... Perhaps some business partner forced them to remove it again.
@@eurositi Yes, some MKV videos work perfectly fine. I had two videos, both recorded in OBS. One was imported, and the other did not. That's why I researched finding ways to fix it. Adobe will eventually get to it. Don't know how long it'll take.
@@mks-mobile Did you check the codec types of the MKVs that didn't work vs. the ones that did? *Always* do that when this happens. If Adobe ever replies back to you, they will ask you the same question. 1. Load the problematic MKV in VLC media player and press *Ctrl+J* 2. Stream 0 Codec will show the video type, while Stream 1 Codec will reveal the audio type 3. Let us know what it says.
@@mks-mobile none of the way is working. what to do? is it the problem with windows 11? bcs on my win 10 laptop same version of premiere pro working perfectly. but on my pc it is not even importing a single file

What I did is to transcode MKV to ProRes or MPEG-2 for better editing in Premiere Pro with DumboFab. MKV is not an edit-friendly format actually.

MKV is a container. It can *contain* both MPEG2 and ProRes video as well as other video encoding formats. You are comparing pears and apples.
Wow thanks man, did not know that vlc works as convertor too, will try it, thank you
The third method worked for me. Many thanks!
Excellent!
Third one is the most STUPID one
Third method worked perfectly for me
Glad to know that. Thank you for commenting.
thanks, that was short and simple
Thanks working 🔥
No problem 👍
Thanks bro second method success 🎉
Happy to help
will this conversion make any changes in quality?
I don't think so. It's worth a try. It doesn't cost anything, and you will always have your original file.
thank you man it works
Glad to hear that 🙂
thankyou so much dear!!!!!🤗🤩
No problem. Take care.
sir i have question ADOBE encoder still cant make mkv ---> mp4 format change?
No. It can't. You will need a different method.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Clipchamp only works in vlc the converted video 😢 is shorted like I converted 25 mins video it only converted first 2 seconds
If a video is converted in VLC, it will be converted in full. Are you sure the settings are fine? Maybe VLC is fully supporting the format.
Thank you so much❤
No problem
What about on a Mac? Mine is MBP M2.
thank you
You saved me Bro
No worries, bro. Take care.
It's kinda incredible that this fricking expensive software can't open such a common format...
I know. It baffles me, too. But, thank god, methods are available to import this format.

@@eurositi will do. Thanks
Bro still not working 😭
Bro fucking clipchamp can open a mkv file but not premier pro? 💀 Anyway, thank you for the tutorial, it helped me a lot!
That's the world we live in. Glad the video helped.
Vlc takes hell a lot of time to convert😢
Try Clipchamp. The program is pre-installed on Windows. It's a video editor. Just insert the video and export it.
@@mks-mobilewill that affect video quality?
@@lofidesires391 No. I have tested it and it does not affect the quality.
AMENNNN !!!
clipboards worked
what stupidity. do u think file format changes by renaming?
I tried that. Didn't work
