Well I have Premiere, the damn thing won't read the codec that the camera captures the avi in. It's just at home. No school lab or anything, I actually have a job and am not in college...But I do miss those days playing in a computer lab with shit that wasn't mine...anyways. Thank you for the suggestions.

Which was installed first the codec or Premier... I had a miro capture card that was a pain .. it had to be installed before premier then premier would pick it up. Maybe you can play around in the prefrences and force load it

Well the thing is I don't know what codec it uses. Premeire doesn't have it which is why I can't open it in premiere...it runs fine in the like windows media player and all. And fujifilm.com has no info on whatever codec it uses for the video from the camera...maybe I should waste my afternoon on the phone getting through their maze just to find out?
ick.

My two cents (as I'm not totally into the DV thing):
Grab the Nimo Codec Pack. I've been doing alot of avi to mpg conversions in the past few days and I haven't run across one that I don't have the codec for now.

im guessing that it transfers via firewire to the computer.... and if your computer see's it when you hook it up, try choosing it as a capture device from firewire in preimer .. I cant remember totally how its done.. but its worth a work around.
It should tell in the manual with the camera what codec or whatever .. but I am not sure. But thats my guess.

For simple things like rotating the video or recompressing it, I highly recommend Virtual Dub. (http://virtualdub.sf.net). It has saved my butt many times, and best of all it's Free Software.
For more complex work where you are editing multiple shots together and adding sound, then you will want a full editing program like Avid, Final Cut, or Vegas. Do not get Premiere, it looks good at first but it has tons of bugs and mis-features. (reliability-wise it's the total opposite of Photoshop)...
