Importing *.scc file crashes premiere cs5.5

I keep trying to import the *.scc closed caption files to attach to a sequence and it crashes on all 3 of my Adobe CS5.5.3 systems.
I've tried 12 different SCC files to go with the various timelines and they all crash.

I am using the Matrox MX02 Mini and LE on 3 different machines with Adobe Premiere CS5.5 (last updates on that too).
I can get it to export fine with Clsoed Captions, although via S-Video/Component, the closed captions do get lost on occassion and we had to re-export everything to tape via Firewire IEEE1394.
The real answer is exporting firewire on a standard NTSC timeline with the Mercury Engine Playback turned off and also the old LEGACY IEEE1394 driver installed on Windows 7 - and NOTHING from Matrox or any 3rd party to work for us.

  • Importing .avi file into Premiere CS5 and losing on quality

    Hello Adobe users,
    I'm having a problem with importing my material in Premiere CS5. It's file extension is .avi and I'm not sure which step I do wrong to get his but it's pretty important to me to find out what's the problem.
    Every time I try to import material which was captured on another computer, I get it all lossy in Premiere and it's really obvious.
    Maybe I make mistake with opening new project?
    I'm not sure which camera is used, but I'm sure it's Panasonic and it films in cinemascope (widescreen).
    I would really appreciate your help here!
    Thanks in advance, Filip!

    Flip,
    Welcome to the forum.
    AVI can hold all sorts of things, and those will be all important in addressing your problem. This ARTICLE goes into more detail, and shows how to "peek inside the AVI wrapper." Please let us know what CODEC is used in that file.
    How are you Importing/Capturing the AVI file?
    What Sequence Preset was chosen?
    Good luck,

  • Can't import .scc file into premiere

    I am trying to import a closed captions file into Premier CC
    I am getting  'The file cannot be opened because of a header error.' each time
    I have tried every format I can for closed captions to try and import
    I have also re-exported versions frm two different subtitle programs on two different PCs
    Any help/advice much appreciated!
    Many thanks!

    Hey Mark, londonboy,
    I recently ran into this problem too and figured out a solution. I replied to a similar topic (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5839277#5839277) with the solution.
    Basically, I was able to import it once I changed the .scc encoding from UTF-8 to 1252: Western European.
    If you don't know how to do this, or it still doesn't work, check the link above.

  • Import VOD files into Premiere CS5

    I'm editing a documentary in which I needed to import a few promotional DVDs and although all of them eventually worked properly, theirs still one DVD that's giving me issues. It'll go in properly when I rename them to .mpeg but each file only has several seconds of audio each.
    Is their anything I can do to get those files in properly without doing any converting beforehand?
    I had an audio issue once before with CS4 and I can't believe I'm having one again with CS5. At least it's proven to be much better than CS4 but I just wish I would never have to deal with that again. What's funny is that it happened when I was editing my first documentary and now that I'm editing my second documentary it had to happen again. I've never had audio issues editing events.

    FWIW, I recently completed a project using files imported from a DVD. You don't even need to transfer the files to a HDD.
    It's perfectly OK to work from the DVD drive.

  • .MOD files in Premiere CS5

    I am trying to import .MOD files into Premiere CS5, with no joy.
    If I change the file extension to .MPG, Premiere can import the video, but no audio.
    Can anyone advise on how I can import .MOD files successfully, with both video and audio?
    Many thanks

    Oh boy, JVCs ill fated .mod file extension. I hate this thing. Hate it. It's next to impossible to do anything with. When i first got a JVC tapeless cam in 2004 it ran this extension. All I used with it was the pack in software that worked fine. Well over the years I started using more advanced cams and more advanced software. A year ago I wanted to go back to that old cam and use some old footage for a DVD project, in PrPro cs4. It was a nightmare. I finally, FINALLY, found the answer after using several NLEs, converters, and such to get it to work in adobe. So here's what I found:
    from my experience, basically all interactions with JVC tapeless media has left little to be desired. i have done many dvds in .mod format because i had gotten the very first JVC tapeless cam in 2004ish. the .mod files are.... almost imposible to work with, outside of using cyberlink. i tried sony. i tried adobe. i tried FCP and all results... were dismal. (i was filming in 16x9 the rograms that DID read .mod, which was Vegas, would not accurately flag the footage as Widescreen) the ONLY way i could get the widescreen footage to show up as widescreen other than using cyberlink software was to use
    http://www.cyberlink.com/products/mediaespresso/overview_en_US.html
    and convert to a straight up no strings .mpg2 file. then it worked in the other NLEs. So basically the only way I could successfully import and edit a .mod file with premierepro was to use that converter.

  • Editing AVCHD files in Premiere CS5 – juddery movement

    Hi all,
    Just got a Panasonic HDC-TM900 camcorder – it shoots 1080p @ 50fps (PAL). The format is “.mts”, with AVCHD compression.
    Anyway, the issue I have is that when I import the files into Premiere CS5 to edit (Premiere says it supports the native files) – whenever the camera moving, the movement is very jerky, and also blurry during a pan. But when I play back the clip on the camcorder itself, or directly out of it via HDMI, it’s crystal clear with perfect movement.
    Firstly – I am making a composition that matches the clip settings.
    Secondly - my machine is very fast & can handle the files, so it’s not a processing issue.
    And thirdly, they still judder when rendered (as H.264) – so it’s not just an “un-rendered media” issue.
    Any Googling I’ve done seems to bring up similar issues with editing AVCHD files, but no solid solution yet. People are saying that I should transcode the files before importing into CS5 (but with no consensus on the format or software to use), and there is also a general consensus that AVCHD is a great playback format, but not the best for editing.
    And what’s also odd is that the Panasonic website seems to offer the EXACT software that would seem to fix my issue, but when I click the link it’s not there!
    See here: http://www.panasonic.com/business/provideo/avchd-home.asp
    Scroll down to “Software” and it says “AVCHD to P2 DVCPRO HD Transcoder” – editing P2 files would be ideal, as I’ve done this before off a P2 camera - but when I click the link, it brings me to a page with all sorts of software & utilities, but I can’t even find the words “AVCHD” or “DVCPRO” it mentioned on that download page!
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    KP.

    Hi John - it doesn't have a 1080i setting.
    Here is a link to a file I shot on this camera - I imported it into CS5, made a new sequence to match eth footage (i.e. dragged it onto the "New Item" icon) and re-encoded the AVCHD file to a H.264 "Vimeo HD" preset in CS5.
    It's blurry, juddery, horrible footage during any sort of movement!
    http://www.maxtronmedia.com/grove/panasonic.mp4
    Yet, on the camera's own LCD (and on a TV through the camera's HDMI output), this footage looks immaculate. And yes, I tried capturing footage through the HDMI cable into my Matrox Mini and it's interlaced all over the place & pretty-much un-usable.
    Suggestions?
    I just printed an Amazon returns label, so I'm probably going to send the camera back... now I just need to hope the box is still in my green bin! :/

  • Importing mov files in premiere pro cs5

         A). if the *.mov file has only video, i get a file import failure message saying " the file has no audio or video streams".
    2. the next prob is my dymanic linking does not work.
    Help please

    Im trying something and I hope you can help me. I have two computers, one dedicated to capturing a event and the other I have is dedicated to playback. They share the hard drive via a network. What I want to know is- is there a way for the dedicated playback machine to access a video file that is still being captured by the capturing machine and play back parts of it in a sequence??

    Zone Alarm, eh? I used to use that program, but it got in the way of almost everything that I did, that I canned it completely.
    Glad that removing ZA solved your issue.
    Personally, I find MOV Animation CODEC to be quite good, and use that for a lot of work. Jeff Bellune, here, like the Photo JPEG format, but I have not explored that.
    Good luck,

  • How to import pdf files in Premiere Elements 8

    Hello,
    I'd like to know if there's a way to import pdf files in premiere elements 8, becouse if I try to import it in "project" it gives me an error saying "this type of file is not supported".
    Thank you
    Sebastian

    Unfortunalty it's not working for me yet. If I try to import the PDF (single page)  into the project, the progress bar reach 100% but then says: "the file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed". I have Acrobat Reader 9.3 installed too.
    I've uploaded one of the PDF's that I want to use if you want to test it yourself:
    http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YB7NT4QR
    One of my coworkers says that I may need Adobe Bridge to do so, is that correct? Otherwise a simple "pdf to jpg" (or other image formats) could solve the problem.
    Thanks for your support.

  • Subtitle workflow. Is it possible to import srt files into premiere and then export to Encore?

    Hi, I'm editing a series of short documentaries that wil be published in DVD with subtitles, and I'm wondering if there's any way to import srt files into Premiere and then export the project to Encore.

    You can easily (and better, IMHO) do what you want in Adobe Prelude.  It's part of the CC subscription, and may have been included with CS6.
    Open the Ingest panel, navigate to the external drive where you have your source clips, make the thumbnails in the Ingest panel comfortably large, click a video clip to enable scrubbing, and use the J-K-L keys to navigate playback through the clips.  Put a check mark on the clips you want and be sure to select and set up the Transfer option on the right side of the panel before ingesting.  Don't select the Transcode option.
    Cheers,
    Jeff

  • Can't import prores files into Premiere Pro CC or SpeedGrade CC

    Can't import prores files into Premiere Pro CC or SpeedGrade CC. But I can into After Effects CC.
    I also can't export to DNxHD files to an MXF file either.
    I do have latest Quicktime Pro installed and I also have Avid Media Composer and the other pieces of the Avid package.
    Conflict?

    I only have one account on the computer and it has Administrator priveleges.  What I am doing to make it work is opening the application using the "Run as Administrator" command (e.g., right click application shortcut on desktop, choose "Run as Administrator").  I am not a Windows guru but I would guess there is something different between opening an Application with a user that has Administrator priveleges and opening an Application choosing "Run as Administrator".  Also, your answer still does not address the fact that I can't use my jog wheel.
    Anyone else have some ideas?

  • Importing Photoshop files into premiere pro CS6 issues

    Hi
    I recently re-installed Premiere Pro CS6 on my work computer (i changed from a HDD to an SSD). Ever since I did this I am having an issue importing .PSD files into Premiere.
    I try and import a photoshop file. The importer window comes up. The progress bar starts to move, then pauses and the Importer says 'Not Responding'. After a few seconds it comes back and throws up the following error:
    Error message - 'The importer reported a generic error'
    All projects i previously worked on that had .PSD files in them are now reporting these files as 'Media Offline' meaning I have to replace them with .PNG files which is really annoying.
    Any ideas what might be happening? The files I am trying to import are RGB .PSD's. They worked previously without any issues.
    I have Premiere Pro Version 6.0.5 (001 (MC: 264587))
    running on a Windows 7 machine with Service Pack 1, 64 bit OS, 16GB Ram and Intel Core i7-2600
    Many thanks in advance for anyone who can help me with this!

    Yes, MXF should play perfectly in PP CS6, but if you can't work this out at this point, you may wrap your MXF video to something intermediate. as a matter of face, Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 seems to work fine if you import your MXF clips directly from a camera or camcorder, but if have already copied MXF recordings your HDD or you downloaded them from somewhere else, the import error may occur.
    So i suggest you convert the MXF footage to something mezzanine we would recommend DNxHD.mov (if you are on a PC) or Apple ProRes .mov (if on a mac). those two intermediate codecs are good mezzanine codecs that handle recompression well and standup well in other areas of post-production (color grading, graphics, compositing, etc,). You can see what I wrote about the solution. "Why Premiere Pro CS6 can't import MXF files?" i hope that it is helpful to you.

    I think it might have been an Apple security update, still doing research on this problem. Anyone else have any insight??? I called Adobe today and they couldn't fix it. DreamWeaver CS5 crashes on saving on Mac OS 10.6.8, a huge bummer.
