12k Photos In A Nest (PPro cs5)

I have a couple of 12,000px X 5,000px photos in a preimer SEQ. These photos seem to behave differently in a nest than when on the open TL(timeline). My SEQ is 1080p and this photo is panaramic. In a Nest it does not show but if i move it out of the nest i can see it. It has only gausian blur on it.
I was just wondering if there is something limited in a nest as opposed to the open TL?

Are you actually doing zooming/panning on the super-size source that you need all those pixels? If not, convert to 1920x1080 for best results. If you are moving it, you can still probably make it smaller, only make it as big as needed to get the desired results. Used to be a 4000x4000 limit for stills I think, though no doubt that has increased with newer versions of Premiere, but still adding a whole lot of overhead - and potential issues - with such a large image. Also, you may find it better to make a copy of the still in Photoshop and add the Gaussian blur to the still rather than adding in Premiere.

  • Technical problem: PPro CS5.5 won't play DSLR MOVs

    Hello!
    I am new to PPro CS5.5 (first day, actually) and I cannot play back .MOVs from my Canon 5D Mk2 (with audio). Every other file format that I tried worked, which is quite bad because I bought the Production Premium package just to work with DSLR footage.
    It doesn't matter whether I create a sequence (still haven't figured what that is for) with/for the file or not, it doesn't matter what project settings I have. After I start the application I can play (or scrub) DSLR files for ten seconds max before the output starts to jump erratically within the clip (the playhead doesn't) and then turns green (RGB: 0x008600), sometimes interjected with images from other clips that have been played before, sometimes even garbage. There is no recovering from this. All other file formats continue to work fine. "Project New" or exiting the application then may take up to a minute while the program remains unresponsive and looks like it has crashed. It is totally unusable (the competition and every other software works fine with the files).
    I have a Win7 64Bit 3.4GHz Sandybridge system with 16GB RAM. The harddisks are large, fast and quick enough to handle DSLR video. There are no other applications running in the background (really nothing as the computer is of course not connected to the internet) and there's lots of memory and harddisk space available.
    What can I do or what did I do wrong? Thanks in advance.
       ...Mike

    To edit/play MOV you must have Quicktime installed... what version of QT do you have installed?

  • Color Finesse for PPro CS5??

    CS5 Production Premium comes with a plug in version of Color Finesse, and on my system, I see that it is installed in AE, but I cannot find it in PPro, nor can I find an obvious way to install it to PPro. I don't see any installation options on the CS5 install disks.
    Is it no longer available for PPro CS5, or am I missing something??
    Thanks

    I can only have bad experiences with CF
    stayed in time, has power but is the most clumsy out there. 
    many tools, but bad enough flow.
    And as plug-in is to be opening shot for shot, I do not like.
    if not, to correct a photo you like, you hang premiere ...
    better colorist II, to be a plugin does not get any better ...

  • PPro CS5.5 freezes -- what's going on?

    I'm an experienced video editor, but new to Premiere Pro. Running on an iMac with Mac OS 10.6.8. My first project is a pretty simple one -- only one long captured clip plus a few still photos overlayed in Video track 2.
    I'm playing the sequence timeline, and about 4 minutes from the beginning playback just stops. Sometimes, Ppro just hangs completely -- no response to mouse clicks in the app or the menu bar, space bar, etc. Sometimes, though, I can select menu items, move the current time indicator, switch tabs and activate different windows within PPro, but nothing I've done restarts playback.
    In the menu, I selected Quit. PPro closed all of the open windows, and then it hung before it completed the Quit operation. I got rid of it with a Force Quit.
    This freezing behavior has occurred several times while I've been working on this project, and I'm only about 4 minutes into the timeline. At this rate, I'll never finish the project.
    As a "newbie" to PPro, I would appreciate any explanation of what's going on, and all suggestions about how to avoid this "freezing" behavior.
    Thanks,
    FastBIll

    Thanks for the suggestions, John.
    In PPro, my timeline contains two clips on Video 1:
    1. Teaser, about 11 seconds long
    2. Show, just under 1 hour long
    These were both captured from a miniDV tape as a DV/DVCPRO NTSC .mov file. Frame rate, 29.97 fps. Dimensions, 720x480.
    At about 4:12 into the timeline, to cover a shooting flaw I inserted a JPG photo on Video 2. Dimensions, 720x534. I added a cross-fade transition to the beginning and the end of this photo.
    Yesterday, I noticed the red "unrendered" line above the photo, so I rendered that portion of the timeline. Now there's a green line above this photo.
    I moved the current time indicator to the left of the photo and pressed the spacebar. The movie began to play. The cross-fades and photo looked perfect. A few seconds after the end of the photo, PPro just froze. Moving the CTI does not change the frame in the Program window; it's frozen at the frame where playback stopped.
    I'm running PPro CS5.5 on an iMac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The entire PPro project is on an external Firewire 800 drive, which is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    Thanks again,

  • Tests with Speech-to-Text transcription in PPro CS5

    As a follow up to my earlier thread about the apparently reworked or, at least, enhanced speech transcription capability in PPro CS5, I just conducted a few tests to see if it is indeed any better than what we had come to expect of it from CS4. The results are, well, encouraging...
    QUICK BACKGROUND: I have an approximately two-minute long voiceover, verbatim from a script, professionally recorded, that was originally delivered to me as a 192kbps, 44.1kHz MP3. Since transcription won't work on MPEG assets (at least, not in the trial which is what I'm using--the files import, but the transcription "analyze" button is grayed out), I used Soundbooth to convert it to a 48kHz, 32-bit floating point WAV. I created a couple of copies, so that each one would have its own transcription metadata. I always used the High quality (slower) option.
    I ran the test four times, as follows:
    Just the WAV, without a reference script
    The WAV with a verbatim reference script as a text document (.txt), with "Script Text Matches Recorded Dialogue" option checked
    The WAV with a verbatim reference script as an Adobe Story script document (.astx), with "Script Text Matches Recorded Dialogue" option checked
    The original MP3 in Soundbooth CS4
    I've linked to a text document with the results of these tests (no editing), along with the original text from the script, if you're interested in seeing how they stack up: right-click and save as.
    As one would imagine, #1 (no script) was... not perfect. However, I think it did a decent enough job for most purposes. Granted, this was a professionally-recorded voiceover, with not competing background noise, but it was still marginally useful. What's funny to note is that the transcription process seems to trip up every now and again and then it seems to lose its momentum for awhile. It'll bobble a "difficult" word, and then for half-a-dozen words following, it's all over the place. Once it regains its footing, though, it'll be pretty much spot on for a sentence or so. Unfortunately, this repeats, but again I think you could make use of it.
    For #2, the transcription was LEAGUES better... but still not perfect. That part is bewildering to me. The transcription generated a couple weird passages--for example "Enjoy" became "and Gillian"--which I could understand if there was NO reference script. However, my impression of how the reference script should work--particularly if the "Script Text Matches Recorded Dialogue" option is activated--is that the transcription should basically copy and paste the reference script into the metadata, NOT invent words and phrases that don't exist in either the script or the dialogue/speech. This process actually preserved capitalization (though punctuation was discarded), so that means it is definitely using that reference script; there is no way to discern capitalization from the spoken word.
    I thought that maybe, just maybe, I could eliminate the anomalies by using Adobe's own script format, generated by the new Adobe Story--hence test #3. I copied and pasted the text into a new Story script, downloaded the ASTX file, and used that as a reference script as above. Unfortunately, it fared no better than the text document (I suppose this makes sense, but I was hoping...), but it was still about 98+% accurate. I'm reasonably satisfied.
    For giggles, I tried test #4, where I used Soundbooth CS4 to transcribe the original MP3 file. Since CS4 doesn't have the reference script capability, this would more or less pit the transcription engine in CS4 against that in CS5. As expected, it turn the dialogue into textual chop suey, BUT... it actually did BETTER than CS5 sans reference script did on some phrases! Observe:
    Original script: Our Club is YOUR CLUB.
    CS5, no script: our love is your laugh
    CS4, no script: our club is your class
    Mish-mash that only Mad Libs could love! For the record, the tests that used the reference scripts were spot-on, capitalization included.
    So, I'm feeling better about using this for the massive documentary and archival project I'm about to embark upon. I have human-typed transcripts for most of the interviews in this project--over 100 interviews, constituting some 200-plus hours--and keeping that text with the footage is going to be a great thing. There are some flaky things--I wish the punctuation could be preserved--but all in all, the reference script addition seems to make this feature much more plausible in a working production environment.

    Did you link the Adobe story script through OnLocation?  For some reason this is required (to my knowledge) to do an exact match.
    When you import an adobe story script into OnLocation; it creates a shot list that is linked to the script.   You then either shoot footage ot fill the shot list; OR link existing assetts to the shot list.  This creates the linkage between the adobe story script and the shot list.
    If you just add itin premire; I think it is the same as just linking a text file.   But if you have ONE assett to ONE script; perhaps you will get the same results anyway.   In Onlocation you can link multiple assets to one script.
    Then all this metadata come in to Pr script attached.
    Some more details pasted from Help:
    Improve speech analysis with Adobe Story, OnLocation, and Adobe Premiere Pro
    You can use Adobe Story, OnLocation, and Adobe Premiere Pro to create the most accurate speech analysis. Import a script written in Adobe Story into OnLocation. OnLocation produces a list of shot placeholders for each scene. Either record these shots using OnLocation during production, or link the placeholder shots to their respective video files when you import the video files into OnLocation. In either case, OnLocation embeds the text for each shot from the original script into the metadata of the shot.
    When you import the clips into  Adobe Premiere Pro, it automatically uses the Adobe Story script as a reference script. When Adobe Premiere Pro finds enough matches with the embedded script, Adobe Premiere Pro replaces the analyzed speech text with the embedded script text. Adobe Premiere Pro carries over correct spelling, proper names, and punctuation from the reference script, benefits that standard speech analysis cannot provide.
    The closeness of the match between the embedded script text and the recorded dialog determines the accuracy of matched-script text. If 100% accuracy is important, edit and revise the script text first. Ensure that the script matches the recorded dialog before using it as a reference script.

  • Partial footage/black screen when replacing footage in PPro CS5

    Let's see if I can get all the relevant info down here.
    Started off with a project in PPro CS5; using two source files (one an MP4 from a Flip cam - not the footage I am having an issue with) the other a direct-stream feed from a 3D application, converted to Lagarith. Both were dragged into the timeline and manually synced so the footage matches up - the MP4 is overlayed over the direct-stream in the corner of the frame, scaled down.
    I have been using the razor tool to cut both sequences into short clips at the same time in the timeline to maintain identical in/out points. The Lagarith-encoded stream is lower resolution than I would prefer, so due to some other additional factors I have taken the stream and scaled it up from the original 640x360 to 1280x720 using a neat app called "Video Enchancer".
    Now, here comes the issue; I have been editing with the 360p footage, and would now like to replace it with the 720p footage (basically proxy editing). "Replace Footage" function to the rescue, right? Apparently wrong.
    Once I replace the footage, most of the timeline gets diagonal stripes across the cut clips, as well as a black screen in the program monitor for preview - indicating that the footage is still missing (though no red "media offline" image). Oddly enough, of the three 360p original files I used to edit with, the first replaced perfectly fine, the second replaced fine up until a certain point, and the third didn't work at all.
    The oddest thing of all, however, is that I can view the replaced footage in the source monitor without any issues, and PPro reports no issues with either the video or the audio stream (audio is uncompressed PCM WAV). I can even drag the replaced footage (now 720p) into the timeline, and watch it in the program monitor.
    The scaled-up 720p footage is of the exact same length as the original 360p footage; down to the frame count. Both are using Lagarith - yet for some reason, replacing the 360p footage with my scaled 720p footage doesn't seem to work correctly. Even selecting "reveal in project" over one of the cut clips that shows no video/audio points me to the correct source file!
    What's going on here?
    If there is any additional info you would need or like, feel free to ask and I'll provide it. Sorry for the long post.

    I'm editing my reply, and going to post a new thread, as I figured out at least what the issue is: PPro is not detecting the correct duration of my footage.

  • Is it possible to download a previous version of Photo shop (ie. cs4 or cs5)?

    Is it possible to download a previous version of Photo shop (ie. cs4 or cs5)? I purchased Photo shop CC for my windows computer but when I attempted to download it to my mac I was told that my computer does not meet the system requirements.

    I don't know your OS, but I'll assume Snow Leopard 10.6.8  In which case Photoshop CS6 would be the best especially if you have a cloud membership like the Photography Plan.

  • Third party garbage matte for ppro cs5?

    Hi there!
    I started using ppro cs5 some months ago, coming from fcp, because of the gamma issue in fcp, because of the fact that you can import Red's r3d's directly and because ppro and redcine x communicate nicely. To my amazement there's no decent way of handling a garbage matte, i.e. smoothing it or using edge feather. I'm not about to spend another large sum on after effects--if it communicates directly with ppro like redcine x I will, but I'm afraid it's a question of exporting and importing, which I really dislike--in other words: does anyone know about a third party plugin with a decent garbage matte for ppro cs5?
    Many thanks,
    Hans

    The build in gargage is no good as you cannot feather it BUT...
    ....you can make your own garbage matte in the Titler. Make a filled bezier shape in pure white.
    superimpose over you footage and add a blur to make it feather.
    Add Track Matte Effect to footage and set this to the matte.
    If you want an animated matte drop the garbage matte effect on a white color matte, add the blur and keyframe the points over time.

  • PPro CS5 will not open now that 5.5 is installed and I need it (Mac)

    I installed premiere pro 5.5 and now the previous version 5.0.4 will not open on my Mac.
    What I really need is the title templates and title font style presets I created in the CS5 version, but I can't find the location to import those. They don't appear to be in /Adobe Premiere Pro CS5/Presets/Templates or /Styles, just the standard ones.
    Where are the user created styles and templates (ones that get customized in premiere not photoshop or anything like that)?
    Why can't I open ppro cs5 anymore?

    I'm not sure how it works on a Mac, but on Windows, styles are saved to a file called "workingset.prsl" unless you specifically create a new style library. You could try searching for that file, and then copy it into the similar path for CS5.5.

  • .dlx-files not loading in PPro CS5

    Hi Community,
    just upgraded from PPro CS4 to CS5 (no Trial). I tried to move the .dlx-videofiles from my Sony DSR-DU1 HDD Drive to PPro CS5 and it says "File Format not supported". The same file on the same machine worked just an hour ago with PPro CS4. Officially .dlx-files are supported (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WSd79b3ca3b623cac97fa024001235833a568-800 0.html), but i can't load them into PPro CS5.
    Though Adobe states that .dlx-files are supported they can't be imported to PPro CS5.
    What is the problem?
    Thank you for your help.

    I'm not sure what wasn't compatible, but that list wasn't updated - the VDU support was lost in PPro's port to 64 bit native.
    Sorry

  • Fresh install of PPro CS5.5 on Mac - missing presets and AVCHD support

    Oh, this is crazy.  How on earth is this not bug-fixed?
    I'm in the middle of setting up a new editing suite for my Secondary school where I am a Media Studies teacher.  I've got a handful of Macs running fresh installs which I've installed new legal, site licensed Premiere Pro CS5.5 installs on.  By default, as in many workplaces, the Macs require admin passwords for internet and install settings, which I applied.  None of the machines have had trial versions od PPro CS5.5 or previous versions of PPro.
    The issues:
    None of the fresh installs contain the presets for  AVC-Intra, AVCHD, Digital SLR, XDCAM EX, XDCAM HD422, and XDCAM HD.  Which is kind of a disaster, as we have brand new Panasonic HDC-SD900 AVCHD cameras waiting to load up footage for editing.
    Further to this, none of the macs will load or recognise the AVCHD footage when I try to add it.  I get "unsupported compression type" errors.
    Am I missing something basic here, or am I about to enter the "delete everything adobe, reboot, reinstall, reboot" loop from hell to try and fix an entire roomful of machines?   Is there ANY way to check if the presets are on the Macs?  Is there any way to link them back into PPro if they are?  And finally, is there any way to get CS5.5 to recognise AVCHD as a recognised format (which is why I bought the site license in the first place!  Premiere Pro is meant to have the easiest AVCHD compatibility of all the editing suites!).
    Grr.  Dammit.
    Ideas?

    Okay, this turned out weird.  Fixed now, but WEIRD.  After the deafening silence on this forum, I went and did some reading on other threads and with other people having similar (but it seems not the same) issue.  It seems that there could have been three different causes: here's what I did to fix things, I'd be fascinated if anyone with closer links to Adobe comes up with the technical explanation of why this turned out the way that it did.
    Possible issues:
    (1) Install may need to be done as Admin, rather than standard user on a Mac
    (2) firewall/proxy server maybe isn't allowing some anonymous callback from premiere to adobe to register presets/codecs
    (3) something else weird involving registration... some people have had issues with time zones, of all things.  see below.
    What I did:
    (0) Took everything off the school network and put on my home wireless network: no firewall, direct connection to internet.
    (1) Tried Ann Bens's suggestion above.  Was unable to deactivate software while logged in as Admin on my mac.  Came up with error code 255:255 in the notification box, even though I never had a trial version installed on this box.  This was the same error I got at school, so I'm tentatively ruling out proxy/firewall issues.
    (2) Read the forums some more.  I'm in New Zealand, it's currently daylight savings time (GMT +13) here.  In http://forums.adobe.com/message/4007876, someone in NZ had a different but similar problem with registering/deregistering Premiere Pro software during NZ daylight savings time, and found that changing to ANY other time zone fixed their issue.
    (3) Thought "what the hell", changed the time zone to Samoa (couldn't bring myself to do Australia...) and rebooted as admin.
    (4) Successfully deactivated software, no error messages.  Interesting.
    (5) Uninstalled premiere pro.  Rebooted as admin.
    (6) Ran adobe cleaner tool.  Found some scraps, killed them off.  Rebooted as admin to be on the safe side (still on Samoa time)
    (7) Installed Premiere, no issues at all.  Registered, no issues at all.  All preset settings present and correct, no issues getting AVCHD files.
    (8) Changed time zone to NZ day light savings time. 
    (9) Everything still works.
    Hm.  Adobe, SOMETHING is wrong with the way your software is handling timezones and registration of codecs/software on Premiere Pro CS5.5.  Seriously, does anyone have a clue why this might be happening?
    So, solved.  Shall I give myself a tick for "correct answer" and "helpful answer", given I solved my own thing with no help from tech support?

  • PPro CS5 not talking to NVidia Quadro 4000...

    Apologies in advance if this has been covered a million times on here (and feel free to point me to a thread), but...I have a new Mac setup, Adobe PPro CS5, and the NVidia Quadro 4000 card with MPE/Cuda. And PPro is not using the GPU.
    I do have the latest drivers (for the card and for CUDA). The card was installed a month ago and I grabbed the drivers at that time.
    Recently I worked on a simple 7-minute non-HD video, with no effects and minimal editing...and the publish time was 7 minutes or so.
    I was expecting faster. And while it was publishing, my computer's CPU gauge said it was running at around 90%. I made sure the PPro project setting pointed towards the card GPU.Obviously the MPE and/or CUDA is not kicking in.
    I have spoken to PNY (where I bought the Nvidia card) and they said if I have the latest drivers and could actually see something on my screens, then the card is working and...you know...it must be a problem with the PPro aoftware.
    Oh, the Mac is a 2010 model, 8-core with a ton of RAM on it.
    Thoughts?
    John

    You are not understanding how the MPE engine works. The MPE engine does not lower the overall load of the CPU as far as usage. It lowers the instructions ie the types of code/threads it has to handle in a given time period. The CPU has to handle all  of the Decoding/encoding of the codecs/ie material that you are using. It will also have to process any non accelerated effects. It also handles all memory management and interrupts that is required by the applications, machine code, and hardware. The GPU handles the scaling, interpolation, and some of the effects besides drawing and GUID code. The CPU has to process the Decode then cache the material to ram so it can cache over to the GPU card Ram for CUDA processing. Once threading is done via the GPU then it caches back to the system ram for the CPU to final encode and adjust further frame data for effects. All of this means the entire pipeline happens faster the more load the CPU can handle focused on specific functions and at what GHz those process through the system during a given time. So basically the MPE allows the system to process more work in a given time period simultaneously essentially. So the higher the load on your CPU the faster your entire workflow will process. In simple terms, this means you want the highest CPU load you can get because that means the GPU, system ram, disks, or board throughput is not slowing anything down. Your at 62%. That means your system somewhere in the pipeline is not allowing the cpu to run at max performance in that given time period. I hope that clarify's what you are seeing and why.
    And yes, OS/Application threading and caching is also included in not allowing the CPU to run at max capacity.

  • Most relevant test score for PPro CS5 to run on notebook?

    Hi, I hope I didn't miss this topic anywhere in the forum. Since I am in the market for a new notebook to occasionally edit 3-5min clips of panasonic HMC 150 AVCHD material (most of the time just office work), I was wondering what the best and still affordable notebook (EUR 1500-1800) would be. Apart for a wide discussion of system requirements and recommendations I couldn't find what would be the most relevant test score to assess how well PPro CS5 is going to work. Some say you need to get a notebook for EUR 3000, some say one for EUR 1200 would still work - I guess it depends on how much you are going to edit and how much time you have. I was curious if there was such a score that serves as a guideline. For example, below you find such test scores for a Sony notebook. What would be the most informative as to whether and how well PPro CS5 will work. Any information is greatly appreciated.

    thank you very much for your answer. Do you think the following notebook would be suitable for occasional editing of 3-4min clips (we have got a desktop editing machine with i7, 12gb, nvidia gts250, and 4 7200 barracuda hdds)? so basically it should only be able to work as a backup editing machine in case two clips have to be finished at the same time. since there is only one hdd, I could put an sdd into it as well. and I could upgrade to 16gb ram. the reason, why this particular notebook is interesting for me, is that through a student discount I can get it for EUR 1,700 instead of EUR 2,500 (cheapest price on the market for this setup). I am aware that it won't be as fast as my desktop (which works spledidly with avchd!), but it should be faster than a retired snail overtaking during his afternoon nap ;-)
    I would really appreciate your opinion on that one or from anybody else that has particular experiences with this notebook and avchd!
    thanks

  • Can't find NOISE REDUCTION EFFECT in PPRO CS5

    Hey guys!
    I am just digging through my CS5 PPRO for last hour or so - an simply can't seem to find any kind of NOISE REDUCTION EFFECT...
    NOISE and GRAIN effect folder is made only of NOISE PRODUCING effects...
    Is it possible that there isn't one in there??? I tried numerous other effects, thinking maybe there be some de-noiser in them, but nothing (only DE-NOISER effect is AUDIO one)...
    I simply shot footage with high ISO and wanna try to remove some noise from it.... Sounds like preaty basic effect, that I remember was present even in programs like VIRTUAL DUB!!!!
    Can you give me any hint on this one???
    THnx
    V.

    Thnx for updating me with info for 3rd party noise removers....
    But I remember that earlier PREMIERES had some noise remover....
    But trust me, I've been trying them for last few hours - these NOISE related EFFECTS in PPRO CS5 v.503 - are all just noise adding effects!!! None of them (at least with word NOISE in their name don't reduce it!!!!)
    Oh, please prove me wrong!:)
