If this isn't the problem, then ask if Autodesk.Navisworks.Timeliner.dll is requiring another DLL which is not there.
If Timeliner.dll is not a .NET assembly, you can determine the required imports using the command utility DUMPBIN
.
dumpbin /imports Autodesk.Navisworks.Timeliner.dll
If it is a .NET assembly, there are a number of tools that can check dependencies.
Reflector
has already been mentioned, and I use JustDecompile

If you are running on a 64 bit system and trying to load a 32 bit dll you need to compile your application as 32 bit instead of any cpu. If you are not doing this it behaves exactly as you describe.
If that isn't the case use Dependency Walker to verify that the dll has its required dependencies.
