Sequence settings should match output settings

My friend has sent me a project to edit. with this sequence setting.
i tried many output settings but the quality is bad. i want to know what output settings shall i use for it.
Thanks In Advance

Sequence setting should match source settings.
Output settings can be what ever you want them to be.

Render Settings should match my Import/Source Settings?

Back again and would like to thank A.T. Romano for the help last time.
I'm Currently using a Canon VIXIA HFM50 recording:
AVCHD(equal to 1920x1080p ?)
MXP(24 mbps)
30 PF though can use 60i
Rec. Programs: Sports
File type: .MTS
*Recording Sports games
Should my Project Preset Recordings be:
AVCHD 1080p60 or Full HD 1080i 30 or another?
1) Do my render settings need to match exactly or as close to my import/source settings?
If so should my render/export settings look like this?:
AVCHD
File type: H.264 Blu-Ray
Frame Size: 1920x1080
Frame Rate: 29.97
Field Order: ?
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Widescreen 16:9
Profile: High
Level: 4.1
Bitrate Encoding: VBR, 1 Pass
Target Bitrate: 20
Maximum Bitrate: 24
Thank you in advance.

Match sequence settings to clip settings should avoid rendering, right?

I drag my media to my timeline and that helpful pop-up stops and asks to match the sequence settings to the clip settings. I say yes, and because the two now match perfectly, this should eliminate the need to render --- right??
I've tried to match the squence before dropping in my media, but can't seem to find the right settings myself.
I can't waste time rendering. Please, any help on this is greatly appreciated!

Update:
I downloaded the Pavtube HD Video Converter App (it costs $35, but it seems worth it). It has a setting menu specefic to mediums; one for Finalcut Pro that includes an option for Apple ProRes. I used the ProRes HQ setting and left the size as original (remember I captured in 4:3). When I put into Finalcut, however, I get a message that says it is not optimized for Finalcut and, once again, I have a rendering issue. However, if I go back to Pavtube and export again, this time changing the ProRes options to resize at 1920x1080, I can import into Finalcut with no problem and no rendering. The catch is that in Finalcut, my video is now stretched to fit widescreen and unfortunately the 1920x1080 is the only size I've been able to export as and then import into FCP without any problems. This is resolved when I export using quicktime convesion and set the size back to 4:3 (shown in screen shot), but brings up another problem - squished text.
Just now seeing other posts to my questions...I will try those suggestions. Thank you!

PP6 Multiple tracks output setting & why MATCH SEQUENCE SETTINGS isn't seeming to work correctly!!

First... can you change a active timeline from stereo to mulititrack 16 channels for instance without creating a new sequence and pasting old sequence into new one.
Also, watch this video...
16 channels of audio... great... try to match sequence settings it changes from 16 channels to stereo. Um... what's happening there???? How do we fix that?

Jim, this is the best place for Mike to post.
This is where the Premiere Pro engineers, testers, and product managers will see questions. It's extremely cumbersome to try to forward a tweet to the relevant expert, and it's even worse to try to troubleshoot and give answers longer than 140 characters (with screenshots) over Twitter.
That said, I'll get someone more familiar with the new audio features to have a look.

Stretched export even when "Match Sequence Settings" is checked

I've been stumped by an export problem I've never faced before. I'm reediting the audio of the Rocky Horror Picture Show movie, so I began this project with a sequence based on the settings of the mp4 file of that movie. I edited it and exported it with "Match Sequence Settings" checked, but the final is horizontally stretched. Here are some screenshots.
Sequence Settings
Export Settings (the source and output previews match!!)
Original Movie
New Export, Weirdly Stretched
Any thoughts? The sequence settings of my edit are based on the original movie, so I can't understand how the final output could be different. What am I missing?
Also this is in CC 2014.

Hi Ttraversy,
It may have to do with non-square pixels, however, I'm not sure you should be editing with other people's source material. I highly recommend you avoid doing so to avoid legal problems.
Thanks,
Kevin

How do I match a clip to sequence settings and sequence presets?

I'm getting the warning: Attention - This clip does not match this sequence's settings or any or our sequence presets.
I'm trying to figure out how to set things up in Compressor so that my clips do match my sequence settings and presets. The issue seems to be with the audio not matching.
Here are the sequence settings:
Audio-2 Outputs
Frame Size- 1920x1080
Vid Rate-24fps
Compressor-Apple ProRes 422 (proxy)
Aud Rate 48.0 KHz
Aud Format 32-bit floating Point
I shot all the footage with a Canon 5D Mark II. I'm using Compressor to convert all my original clips. The only thing I don't seem to be able to match is the Audio. I can't find any way in Compressor to encode clips that have "two outputs" in the Audio column.
The dialogue box for "Sound Settings" in Compressor doesn't offer any sort of options, that I can find anyway, to generate clips with "two outputs."

These are the Compressor settings:
Description: Apple ProRes 422 10-bit video with audio pass-through. Settings based off the source resolution and frame-rate.

Does exporting DV using "Match Sequence Settings"

I am capturing VHS and Hi8 home video using a Canopus ADVC-300 and Premiere Pro CS6. The output is DV, about 14GB/hour. Most of the captures are unattended (have a 4 TB disk, backed up of course, but space is not a big concern right now). I'd like to get everything imported before starting any serious editing, so I capture each tape twice: the first time, the video itself; then I rewind, turn the timestamp indicator overlay on, and capture again with the camera running at 2x speed. That way I can quickly find when a particular segment of a tape was recorded without winding the tape around in the camera, looking for the scene and the time isn't overlaid over the image.
I have two questions:
1) Since the captures are unattended, I need to trim the blue screen off the end of each captured files to save disk space. I'd like to confirm that if I trim a sequence and export with "Match Sequence Settings" set, that Premiere will not re-encode the DV except for the parts that I actually changed (I sometimes use dip to black around damaged segment of tape). Based on the export speed, I don't think it's recompressing and the quality looks the same but I'd like to double-check.
Does Premiere Pro CS6 always mark the timeline with the colored bar if processing is required? The "dip to black" parts get a yellow bar, but the rest has no bar. That would be a clue.
Also, the export dialog has "Use Maximum Render Quality" unchecked by default. I check it -- does it matter?
2) What is the best way to permanently associate a date/time with the captured video? I didn't see any way to bake it into the DV for each segment. I'm using comments in sequence markers, set at the start of each clip, but the sequence markers don't move if I ripple-delete, say 10 seconds of noise in the middle of a track. I can't figure out how to get markers attached to the video track instead of to the sequence. I found some videos that say how to do this, but they don't seem to apply to CS6. I found that if I export the sequence, the markers then do get backed into the DV. But I need them not to move if I ripple-edit. Is that possible?
3) My plan is to add a 3 or 5 second overlay title to the beginning of each segment saying what it is and when it was captured, but only for the final export. Is there a trick that I could use to create a title from a marker? This is not a big deal, but seems like a useful feature.
Sorry if the answer to these questions are obvious -- thanks for your patience.

Thanks for replying. The reason I want to re-export the captured DV is because I capture unattended, and don't know how much video there is on a 2 hour Hi8 tape or VHS tape.
I could find out by fast-forwarding through the tape and stopping, but it's more efficient to just capture the entire tape and then trim the end off the tape and re-export. I'm planning on archiving the raw DV capture, and 1-1/2 hours will fit on a 25GB BluRay disk. Two hours won't.
Thanks for the tip about the project panel. I never scrolled it to the right far enough to see the "description" or "log note" field. Hopefully those notes will wind up in the metadata of the DV .AVI file, but even if it doesn't, I'm planning on archiving the Premiere Pro project file with the DV .AVI file.
The copy/paste from marker to title is what I'm doing now. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something easier.
So... does anyone know if Premiere Pro will pass-through the original DV if I re-export after making minor edits?

Sequence Settings Don't Match

Good evening.
I'm using FCP6 to edit video shot on a DVX100B in 24p Squeeze Mode. When I setup a new project I choose the following:
Format: (all formats) Rate: (all rates)
Use: DV NTSC 23.98 Advanced Pulldown Removal Anamorphic (a custom setting)
When I drop my first clip into the time line I inevitably get the following message:
"Attention- This clip does not match this sequence's settings or any of your sequence presets.
For best performance your sequence and External Video should be set to the format of the clips you are editing.
Change sequence settings to match the clip settings?"
Is there something I'm doing incorrectly, or should I just expect this and always allow FCP to change my sequence settings?
Thanks,
John

Hi,
that is normal message when your source material and your sequence settings don't match.
If you check from your media browser the item properties for your source material and then compare that with the sequence parameters, you will see something either in audio or video that doesn't match.
May be you've got anamorphic material and your sequence was not set with the anamorphic flag on.
Answering yes to that form will make sure you won't have to render all time you add a clip to your timeline.
Regards,
Armando.

Adjusting Sequence Settings to Match Media

I have a few different types of media in my Timeline -- H.264, and others. What should I set my sequence settings to so that they match? The drop down that I am aware for adjusting the sequence only provides one option.
Thanks.

Hey Mark
You can't match all the types at the same time. A sequence can be set to a specific format and then any files matching that format will be "native" and not need rendering. With FCP6 you have the added capability of enhanced realtime performance with non-native codecs in the timeline .. this is what they call the "Open Format Timeline" but there is no specific setting for that, it just means you are mixing QT movie formats in the timeline. The realtime performance you will see depends on whether those formats are camera native formats, those being DV, DVCPRO, DVCAM HDV
DVCPRO 50, IMX, DVCPRO HD, XDCAM HD, and XDCAM EX, Uncompressed 8- and 10-bit SD Uncompressed 8- and 10-bit HD.
Worth noting is that H.264 is definitely not in that list, and not a format you should be editing with. You will not get any kind of realtime performance with such a heavily compressed delivery codec. As advised, transcode to a more suitable codec before editing that footage.
Cheers
Andy

Exporting from PPro CC - Exporting using Match Sequence Settings issue with 24 bit audio

I am having an issue exporting my sequence which contains final AIFF mix (24 bit 48 kHz) into a 'same-as-source' ProRes 422 file with 24 bit audio. I am specifically trying to export media with 'Match Sequence Settings' checked to create an identical output of what my sequence is. I wind up only creating a PR422 with 16 bit audio rather than 24 bit audio.
My sequence contains ProRes 422 media and 24 bit AIFF final stereo mix (1 audio file) from our Sound department.
My sequence is currently setup as "Custom" at 1920x1080, 23.976 fps, Square Pixels, Progressive, etc. Audio is 48 kHz (I don't see an option for choosing different bit rates in the 'Sequence Settings').
Using 'Match Sequence Settings', my options to alter the audio are "greyed out" and unavailable. I'm not sure why 'Match Sequence Settings' doesn't recognize that I am cutting with 24 bit audio and, instead, only exports 16 bit audio.

Always skip Match Sequence Settings and set up the export manually.

Can't match sequence settings to clips

I shot some footage on a JVC consumer camera and converted it to mpeg 2 with mpeg streamclip. When I create a sequence in FCP 5.1.4 it doesn't give me an mpeg 2 option in the sequence settings, so I can't match the format and the clips have to be rendered in the timeline.
When I go back to mpeg streamclip and convert the clips to DV and import them into FCP, the audio shows up as "1 Stereo", whereas my sequence shows up as "2 Outputs". So now my audio has to be rendered in the timeline. Mpeg streamclip doesn't give me an option to change the audio, and FCP won't let me change the sequence audio setting. So frustrating!
How can I get the clips and the sequence settings to match?

You can't use multiplexed MPEG 2 streams in FCP.
If you used Export to DV in MPEG Streamclip, that's another mistake. You will have to render the audio every time you change something.
How to do it right, the first time:
From the Edit menu, choose Export to QuickTime.
Choose the codec from the multi choice button at the top of the next window.
((Use one that Final Cut Pro works with, as found in FCP's Easy Setup menu.))
Set the Quality slider to 100%.
Export your movie.

Files too large if "Match sequence settings" selected

Hi there
I have a MTS file of 802MB as source file with below information. Besides this I am using a 30 seconds small AE intro animation using dynamic link.
If I choose "Match sequence settings", I get a file that is 2.15GB. You can see the source file was 802MB and output is 2.15GB which has become a real problem for me to upload it due to repeated disconnection and failure of ftp tools like Filezilla and CuteFTP to resume the upload process. (even though they claim to supprt resume of file transfers but I have to start it from zero bytes everytime)
So, all I need is to improve my understanding about the right encoding method instead of using "Match sequence settings". I had many hopes from H264 but I guess I am still getting large output files. Plase advise I have to finish this project as soon as I can and I am done with editing, inttro animations etc. Only the getting optimized output file and there upload has become a issue for me.
Thanks.

Don't use "Match Settings" - decide who the viewer is and choose from a variety of presets to suit your needs. For instance look under "H.264" and you will find a YouTube Widescreen HD preset, or there are iPod and iPad presets, all kinds of options.

Changing sequence settings to match clip settings-which settings are right?

I'm using a Canon HF10 camcorder and FCS 2 with a 24" iMac Intel Duo core.
When I bring in a video clip shot on my Canon HF10 (I shoot in its highest-quality mode: FXP and I do not use the 24 fps setting), I take FCP 6's recommendation to set the Sequence Settings to match the clip settings. If I then go to Sequence> Settings, I see that my Sequence Settings are 1920 x 1080 HDTV 1080i (16:9).
If you look at the Canon web page for my camera: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=269&mo delid=16186 , it shows that the camera is "Full HD" and "30p Progressive." So, why is FCP defaulting the Sequence Settings to 1080i? Is this default setting what I should be using?
Also, and perhaps more importantly, if I go into Motion 3 to create things to add to FCP projects that use the footage from my HF10, what settings should I choose in Motion 3's Select Project Preset window?
Thanks!

Hey guys,
I found the same problem occurred with my own "weird codec". I'm on FCP 6.0.6 and I was doing some simple testing work with Photobooth's video feature, which records in MPEG-4 640x480 .mov. I tried getting my sequence to auto-conform with both 'ASK' and 'Always' settings, but no dice.
I didn't find a solution, mostly because it was easier to simply batch export them all as DV Pal clips, but I thought you might be interested. I posit the auto conform only works with more conventional video codecs like those listed in the Easy Setup options - of which, MPEG-4 is not.

Export to Match Sequence Settings

I am using Premiere CS5 and I want to export a video clip in the same format as the original footage (Canon XF MPEG 2) at 100% quality (having edited it obviously).
So I go to >File >Export >Media and check the box 'Match Sequence Settings'.
How do I change the default 50% to 100%? (I've checked the original Sequence Settings and there doesn't appear to be a 50% or 100% option).
Many thanks.
TBC

Hi TBC,
I think you're on the wrong track with the export. Camera codecs are for acquisition. There are many different options for Export, and they do not need to be, nor should they be in most cases, the same thing you started with. The general consensus I see on these forums is to avoid "Match Sequence Settings" most of the time.
Please let us know the destination, and we can then suggest options. For instance, if you simply want to create a "Master" copy of the completed work, on a Mac you might want ProRes, while on the PC you could look at the Lagarith Lossless codec, or the Avid DNxHDcodec (both need to be installed to use them). If going to the web, there's a ton of options, but a YouTube or Vimeo preset is a good place to start, found under "H.264" format.
Thanks

Remember Export "Match Sequence Settings" setting?

Hello,
I would have posted this is "Feature Requests" but that currently seems to go to a dead link.
Longtime editor here, new(ish) to Premiere Pro.
My habit is always to set up my sequence to match what my final export specs will be. As a result I pretty much always want the "Match Sequence Settings" in the Export dialogue checked.
It seems that every time I export, Premiere defaults to unchecking this.
It's not really a big deal to have to check it every time, but it one of those little annoying things especially when under the gun if I forget to check it.
It also seems intuitive that software should be able to remember the settings a user frequently uses, rather than the user having to do the remembering. This is the sort of thing computers are good at.
Wondering if we can get a preference to either default this to checked, or default to last used setting? If such exists I have been unable to find it.
Thanks!
