Ableton Forum

Hi all!

I am a sound design student trying to use Ableton to edit the background music and the dub of a documentary with Ableton

With Windows 64 bits, the video importing doesn't work, apparently, but on the ableton website (https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/artic ... -Live-Win-) it says to install Matroska Splitter and FFDShow, which I did, but still I can't drag videos in ableton

Any other tips?

thanks in advance

What type of video file are you trying to import?
e.g MP4 is not supported.

I am using live 10 ?
it does not work for me

I found a solution thanks to Pottering from KVR, i must use the integrated graphics for Ableton Live10 exe

With NVIDIA it apparently it works like this (not sure though):
