no, use .mp4. it just uses less space on your drive.

How did you import the video into Premiere?

You should use H.264 export presets instead.  But if the audio during the sequence play back is bad then it will be bad after export too.  Next time always verify the sequence settings first.

i dont know how to change the audio hz. when i export though it says the audio is 8800hz. I used the import thing in adobe and imported the files in from my downloads folder. They sounded fine in my downloads folder but sounded awful as soon as i put them into premiere. the strangest part is when i put the clip into premiere and clicked properties it said compressed-48000hz but when i exported it the audio details box said 8800hz. what do i do?

Alright, lets say you have an audio file sitting in a folder somewhere on your computer that is 48khz 24-bit.

 

In Premiere, you first import that file (either by the import dialog or just drag and drop) into the PROJECT panel.

Then you can drag that audio clip into any timeline sequence.  Select the timeline sequence, go to the menu in Premiere (Sequence > Sequence Settings).

Make sure the audio section of the settings is indicating the sample rate you want to work with.

 

When exporting that timeline sequence (i.e. after pressing CTRL+M), select your Format and Preset, then go to the Audio tab and check the settings there.  In the Summary area the export dialog window will show you information about your export settings such as resolution, frame rate and audio format and sample rates.
