I was editing a video for my channel when I put in a clip(converted from .MOV via SUPER ©). I played the video to find that it only showed the first frame for the entire video with an initial shutter to the second. Being the lazy ass I am, I just cut away the video and left the audio, which worked fine (shocker, right?). Is there any way to fix this?

did you save your work in wax?
wax creates .avi files (you have to type .avi when saving )
Super is a good conversion tool but why convert .avi to .mov ?

Wax doesn't support .MOV.

The only thing I can think of is to check your codecs.

I saved, then tried again. It didn't work. I re-encoded the file using the ideal settings. It still didn't fix it. HELP!!

I assume that you are converting from .MOV to .AVI using Super.  AVI has a 2Gig limitation. Anything over that and  AVI crashes and only the first frame is visible. Only the first frame showing means that the AVI file has a corrupt keyframe file. To fix that use VirtualDubMod. Don't drag and drop your AVI video into VDM but open it using the File dropdown. At the bottom check the box for "extended options after this dialog" and in the extended options dialog check the box "Re-derive keyframe flags". Let VDM do it's thing and then save the AVI file. The file should now play all the frames. (hopefully)
Hope this helps.
