Is your timeline animation window open?

No I didn't, but I have it up now. What I must I do next? Sorry for being such a noob

It's ok everyone starts somewhere, if you have the timeline animation window open press the play button and your video will no longer be still


EDIT

@.Shifty2. It maybe worth mentioning that if your running x64 photoshop you can't open video files you have to switch to x86 photoshop

Thank you. Shifty2.!
It helped me a lot

Thanks Shifty2
Your tut helped me a lot

Yes, but you need the Extended version. Just follow the steps of the first post of this topic LOL.

My savior! Thank you!
Today I was trying to do my first video userbar and then... doh! Photoshop cannot open .avi or .mov.

Yes it worths to mention that, I run cs4 extended on Win7 64 and couldn't figure out how to open video files.
Thank you again.

No problem Good luck on your first video UB

I didn't see this when you wrote it. :p Have you got a link to a guide to switch or can you do some quick instructions? I havn't got a clue. (Mac)

Basically when you install photoshop you get 2 versions...

x86 & x64

The x64 Version won't open up video files you must open x86 version then the video files can be opened.

Let me know if you need it explaining further

Ah right, pretty simple lol, I thought you had to switch OS more something.

Nah just a different version of photoshop

Thanx a million for the tut ! Now this is my first videobar (made in Photoshop CS5) for a friend of mine (size was his choice). The lens flare effect was cropped by me from a 1080p video. Hope you guys like it:

300x20
400x20 (stretched)

And this one was for myself:

bump
come on guys help me

file->import->video frames to layers (only 32bit!)

i prefer .mov (cs5)

Any extension works. Just type *.*; and then open.

Then you can select any video file you want.

Is it working on Potoshop CS 2

I'm afraid it doesn't, but I'm far from sure. Try upgrading to a more recent version though!
