5.1 sound from premiere

Hi,
I've been searching this for a while but couldn't get a straightforward solution to my problem, would really appreciate some help.
In Premiere cs5, I have a a video file and 6 audio tracks for 5.1 sound. I need to export this into one single quicktime file that has 5.1 sound. If in "export media" browser I just select "5.1" in audio export mode, will that give me a correct 5.1 file, or will it mess up something?
Thanks in advance.

Dragging the clips which contained a 5.1 mix to a stereo track
To the best of my knowledge, that is not possible.  A clip will only go on a track of the same type.
These are mpeg2 files containing an ac3 6-channel mix. Previously Premiere seemed to handle them as stereo tracks (the information on these tracks that I imported a month ago still reads "Compressed - Stereo", but Modify->Audio channels reveals there are 6 channels only two of them are selected L & R). If I now reimport any of these tracks Premiere suddenly says "Compressed - 3 Stereo". I suppose that this difference in handling the ac3-audio has resulted in the missing tracks.
Could anybody tell me how their version of Premiere handles files with ac3 audio?
Does Premiere rely on any extrenal codec to decode ac3 audio? It might have been that this codec was updated on my machine and now produces a different result?
Thanks again, dave

  • No sound from Premiere Pro

    I was reviewing a video in the source tab when i realized that I couldn't hear any of the sound from Premiere Pro.
    I can see the sound db raising in the sound value bar but I cannot hear anything from Premiere Pro.
    I can hear everything outside of Premiere but nothing inside of it.

    A little more information:
    I'm listening on my headphones when the sound didn't work.
    I therefore tried to turn them off and listen over the computers and it worked over the computers speakers.
    But it still doesn't work on my headphones. I can hear every other sound than the sound from Premiere on my headphones.
    While I hear a song from for example Spotify while I edit in Premiere then I still can't hear anything from Premiere on my headphone(because it is on my computers speakers) but i can still hear everything from Spotify.

  • Exporting Video w/ Sound From Premiere Doesn't Play Correctly in After Effects.

    I export a video from Premiere with sound and Import it into After Effects, however the sound seems to be sped up and glitching. The wave form is compressed and shows that the sound does not play for the actual duration of the video?

    We can't know. You have neither provided any exact export settings nor any other useful info like system info, versions, audio hardware prefs and so on.

  • Problem with sound when import from Premiere into After Effects

    Hi!
    I imported a sequence from a Premiere Pro project using File -> Import -> Adobe Premiere Project...
    The video in the sequence showed up in the After Effects project as a composition.  However, the composition did not include the sound from the sequence!  Is there a way to keep the sound from the sequence upon import into After Effects?
    Thanks

    i`m sorry about the screenshot size, but i could only upload pics with 605 px width.
    Nevertheless it seems that you saved my day. looks like it was all about the scale to framesize thing.
    thank you so much!!!!

  • AME 2014 Export Error. Sequences not updating from Premiere.

    It seems that queuing sequences from Premiere Pro to AME via Ctrl+M is forever broken as that causes Premiere to hang and crash on the "Export Media" dialog box. This has been broken for several months. I have talked to developers with no resolution to this. Because of this, I now can only export projects by dragging sequences over to AME from Premiere. This has worked fine until a few days ago.
    What happens now is that AME gets part way through encoding a video and then hangs and fails encoding. I get the super helpful

    Export Error
    Error compiling movie.
    Unknown error.
    I have created new sequences with the same media, removed 3rd party audio plugins, moved all the footage over to a different drive, tried to encoded to a different format like AVI, and I have tried setting the encode to save on several drives. It always fails at the same point. It seems hang and fail on clips that I created in AE, which are rendered using PhotoJPEG .MOV. I tried rendering the clip where AME fails using a different AVI container, but it ended up failing in the same spot.
    The strangest thing is that when I disable the clips in Premiere and dragged tried rendering, it hangs on the same clip as if it wasn't disabled! I have also deleted the clips from the timeline and they still show up in the preview window in AME and it hangs on them and then fails!

    Win 7 64bit (up to date)

    Adobe Media Encoder (AME)

    I tried a re-install of PP and AME, moving all assets to another machine and encoding, enabling and disabling "Import sees natively" in AME, enabling and disabling Mercury in PP and AME, and I got the same result. AME fails encoding with a "error compiling movie" error. Same result when I tried to export from PP.
    The only thing that worked was re-rendering all the clips that I created in AE using a different codec (was MOV PhotoJPEG and I re-rendered to Lagarith AVI). This seemed to work. When it would fail in AME it would hang on a frame for several minutes before giving me the sheep sound. The original MOV PhotoJPEG clips from PP played fine in the sequences and in media players. No drama, no glitches.
    Not sure why AME wan't updating the sequences from PP. The fix for that was launching AME with Shift held down to clear preferences. Also I made sure I saved in PP before I dragged over to AME for encoding.
    Hopefully this will help someone else along their journey. Thanks for looking!

  • Exporting an EDL from Premiere CS6 that SpeedGrade can read

    I have a long sequence which I now want to grade. I didn't grade the individual clips prior to editing them into a 70 minute timeline. I have tried the following without success:
    Exporting to SpeedGrade the Premiere timeline: it will do this, but leaves chunks of clips brown, as blank info in the SG timeline, so if I grade this, I'll have an incomplete graded file to apply back to the Premiere timeline;
    importing to SpeedGrade a ProRes 422 file which I then asked SG to divide into clips (the app quit after taking 40 minutes to examine the file, which it did successfully, but when I asked it to make clips, it quit)
    exporting from Premiere an EDL which I then apply to the QT ProRes file in SG. This is not accepted because there are certain key commands which SG won't accept, but there's no way to know how to export a "clean" EDL from PP to SG without those commands (I even went into the EDL using TextEdit to see if I could delete certain lines, but that was obviously a losing game)
    Suggestions welcome!

    Yes, I tried to find that forum and couldn't which is why I posted here, but since I have you on the line, and since you apparently have lots of experience with SG, can I ask you:
    Because of the way I've done this documentary I can only grade it now that the picture/sound is locked. If I export a ProRes flattened movie into SG, it will have the effects, titles etc which is not what SG wants, right? So do I duplicate a timeline in Premiere, delete the titles, etc, (what else: effects?) and then export to SG?
    If I export the timeline (using a MacPro but not the fastest newest model, 16GB Ram) it takes about three or four hours to export the DPX files. I'm trying it again, but don't hold any hope that it will export without some of those incomplete clips. I don't know what causes them. Could it be sections with effects, with stacked clips which have wipes and other stuff, combining them in the ProRes export to a single image but in a timeline exported to SG maybe its not reading that info?
    Whatever you can suggest would be great.

  • Adobe Media Encoder Fails Export from Premiere

    Hello, this is terrible problem, which i found in CS 6 softwares ...
    solution i found only working, is uninstall and reinstall full package.. but it is not all,
    you need to do BRAND NEW admin account in windows, and install it there.
    that means, i could not export after repair from encoder in my original account never more (!!)   .. this is really terrible way how to repair this issue, because :
    1.by reinstalling of software, client WASTE HIS TIME
    2.by necessity to begin work in another windows profile you again WASTE YOUR TIME because of learning and migrating all other profile modifications, which i see really unaccpetable. Adobe means, this solution of repair is ok, and they did not do till today any steps of creating some "clever" solution.
    I ask everybody, who will meet this issue in future, guys, please, complain about this situation, give "BUG Report" to them, and write "feature request" to them , in the way of creating some repair tool, which check actual  "broken" connections between encoder and premiere, which refuses to "take material" from it and encode, and REPAIR it automatically..  
       I am not IT, but ..does it seems so hard to create this ? Adobe IT developers should know their systems, and should create such utility tool really easy.
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. i export anything by button "queue" from premiere to Encoder
    2. Encoder will start encoding
    3. Encoder does not show the window of media encoding (down left )
    Results: sound of sheep occur,
    in encoding error file is this reason of canceling the encoding :

    History of this problem and detailed description, HOW i did "repair" this. With wasting of app 2,5 days of my working time :
    1. after repairing "error 5" problem , i solved it by reinstalling the suite from the new admin user profile (profile B) . 
    I continued my work on my normal working windows profile . (profile A)
    Every cooperation (AE+Pr, export media via "queue" to Encoder) was working fine . . .
    2. suddenly it stop working (without knowing any possible reason - i did not do installations )
    and showed in error export log file :
    "Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted."
    3.repair via procedure(procedure "a"):
    i did this procedure on the profile B (profile from last time installation of repairing problem error 5)
    I did these steps :
    a-uninstall master coll suite
    b-i used Adobe cleaner tool (remove ALL)
    c-removed raw directories in locations
    •C:\Program Files\Adobe
    •C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe
    •C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe
    •C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe
    •C:\ProgramData\Adobe
    d-removed these links from registry file
    •HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe
    •HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe
    •HKEY_LOCAL_MACH INE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe
    •HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Software\Wow6432Node\Adobe
    e-restarted the PC
    f- newly installed the Master Coll CS6
    g-update the software
    result of repair of "3" : problem still exists
    4.Ok i find out after coordination with support, it should have been created  ANOTHER NEW admin account.
    4a:so i did the same procedure (uninstalling) in profile B
    4b: and then i created brand new admin profile (profile C)for INSTALLATION of software
    4c: restarted the pc (and did not updated it yet)
    result :
    ==exporting of any sequence/raw/AE link video material from premiere via "queue" (Encoder) (profile C) : export WORKS
    ==exporting of any sequence/raw/AE link video material from premiere via "queue" (Encoder) (profile B) : export WORKS
    ==exporting of any sequence/raw/AE link video material from premiere via "queue" (Encoder) (profile A) : export DOES NOT WORK ! ! !
    (in profile A, is possible to export some raw video material in encoder which is imported to it via "drag and drop)
    problem i see:, i have my basic profile A, which i am interested to work, because of all my directory modifications are in there..
    this issue should be some "broken" connections between encoder and premiere, which refuses to "take material" from it and encode.
    what i expect :
    to get from Adobe some repair tool, which automatically checks these connections and repair if necessary, without necessity of founding the new profile and reinstallation of whole software.. this is madness !
    what i do NOT expect from Adobe:
    to get from Adobe advice of kind : you have to reinstall full software in new admin profile. sorry , we do not know the solution, because we do not know, how do behave our software.

  • Audio and video not synchronized when exporting from Premiere Pro CS6

    Hi
    We have made a project in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 that´s intended to be exported to DVD (it´s a weeding). We are working with NTSC DV Widescreen. The exporting is 720x480
    We have 2 audio lines activated and sounding on this project.
    The question is:
    When exporting the entire video (the entire timeline sequece) using Adobe Media Encoder to formats like H.264 (NTSC DV Widescreen)... Quick Tile Movie or AVI without compression (we tested these formats) the 2 audio channels get unsynchronized from the video. The same problem occurs if we get a direct link of the timeline from Premiere to Encore.
    And Inside Premiere Preview audio is preety correct.
    Does anyone here are getting such problem?
    Also..can I ask another question (as I´m not expert on video production)?. What´s the best format for our purpose? Export a video to be played to DVD (we record weedings, birthdays..social events). No problem the time to export. We´d like the best quality for output.
    Thank you for the help
    Gustavo.

    Hi John and techkid123
    We have 4 cameras here. 1 is Sony model HD1000 (since it works with Mini-DV cassete we need to capture the image via Firewire). 2 cameras are Sony HD2000 (it generates *.MPEG files if I remember well). And 1 camera is a Panasonic AG-DVC7 (it generates *.MTS files)
    We start a new project using the Standard NTSC Widescreen 48Khz format.  When we drag to the timeline for example the MTS file...Premiere ask us if we want to Keep and Change timeline to suit the file specification. Anyway we always have 1 or 2 camera files that has a yellow line over timeline.
    But I renders correct...no problem to edit...and we had no problem with Premiere CS5.5 :/
    We are downloading the latest update of Premiere. I´ll make some test and publish here if the problem persist.
    Thank you a lot for the help
    Gustavo.

  • Sending clip from Premiere to Photoshop

    I am looking for a way to send edited clips from a Premiere timeline directly into Photoshop to grade with Adobe Camera Raw (please don't tell me to use Speedgrade or Resolve, I like ACR and its what I'm used to). The problem is that I need to import the whole clip into photoshop to grade but I need to include the slate at the beginning of the clip to sync sound which will dramatically increase the export time. If I could just send the section of the clip I want into Photoshop directly from Premiere, that would be perfect but i cant find a way to do it. Please help.

    Thanks ssprengel.  My original image is in raw and was sending to PS using Edit In.  Good to know it wasn't user error on my part.  I'll just have to make sure in the future that all adjustments are final prior to sending to PS.
    Alternatively, you can separate the LR adjustments into those that make most sense before going to PS, and those that make sense to apply afterwards (onto the image that is returned from PS into LR). The latter adjustments would not have been baked in, so would not be visible while in PS. But this would also mean they remain editable nondestructively, also they can be varied within different Virtual Copies that all refer to the same TIFF / PSD file on disk. Further edits in PS to that file, would show back into all those LR image variations, automatically.
    When compatible PS and LR versions are used, there is the option to Edit in PS as Smart Object. This preserves the LR adjustments at that time, fully and nondestructively, as embedded settings that can be altered further if required, by pushing the Smart Object layer into ACR within the Photoshop environment. The updated image shows back into LR once re-saved. But any such method logically has to re-set the LR adjustments for the returned image, since otherwise those adjustments would be double-applied: once externally, and again by LR.
    With Raw only "edit a copy with LR adjustments" is available. But with other image types, including those previously externally edited from LR, you can also "Edit original" and "Edit a copy" - these options retain whatever LR adjustments are active, avoid baking those in to the external edit, and re-apply them once again, to the saved result of the external edit.

  • Controlling sound from video player on the timeline

    I'm working on a site that is using frames on the timeline
    for different pages in the site.
    One frame (page) has a video component in it that plays an
    flv file.
    When I play the video in that frame it works great, but then
    when I navigate to another frame, the sound from the video
    component still plays, even though I'm in a frame with no video
    component.
    How can I get the sound to stop when the user navigates away
    from the page with the video component?

    There's no magic solution. However, you don't necessarily have to re-edit it all. Convert the clips in GoPro Studio, using the Fisheye Removal checkbox. In Premiere, right-click a clip in the Bin and use "Replace Footage" and point it to the NEW clip. Do this for each clip. This should replace the clips in the timeline and you won't need to re-edit the clips in the Sequence.
    I've had a similar issue - editing a large, two-camera wedding ceremony and later deciding I wanted to use a DeNoiser filter to clean up the grainy video. Converted the clips externally, then replaced in Premiere. No problems, worked like a charm, all edits and effects intact but using new, cleaned footage.

  • Audio not transferring to Encore from Premiere Pro CS6

    I'm trying to export a sequence through the Adobe Dynamic Link from Premiere Pro CS6 to Encore and the audio is not transferring with video. The video is 30 minutes long with multiple video and audio tracks. The video came through fine, but no audio track. However, I also brought a timeline into the project that was less than 3 minutes and the audio track came with it. Any suggestions/help much appreciated! Thank you!

    Yes--that is correct. Audio track in Premiere but no audio track present in Encore. I believe the audio format in Premiere is Stereo. It is HD footage shot on a C-100 camera. The sound was recorded into the camera and all brought in together. I did end up doing the work around that was suggested and just exported an MPEG2-DVD and pulled the audio in manually. But, would love to try to figure out how to make it work directly using Adobe Dynamic Link. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! 

  • DCP Export from Premiere Pro CC

    Hi Folks,
    I'm trying to export a DCP from Premiere Pro CC, I have my the 5.1 file from our sound house.
    Under the Export option, 'Wraptor DCP' should be available at the end of the list but it isn't on my software.
    I updated to the latest PP CC which is 7.2.2 but the Wraptor DCP option still isn't available .. wondering is anyone has come across this.
    Many thanks in advance
    Ken

    Looks like this may be something to do with CC 2014 versus CC 7.2.2, which is the latest that my software allows me to get.
    Can anyone explain to me how this upgrade works? We're currently paying a monthly subscription for Creative Cloud, is there an additional cost for CC 2014?
    Thanks

  • Exporting from Premiere CS5

    I need some help exporting video files, I know nothing.
    I'm using Premiere CS5. I import a 31.5mb (1:35s length) .mov, chop the first 12 seconds, add a Dip to Black on the beginning and end. Then I choose File/Export/Media, choose QuickTime, uncheck the "Export Audio" (I do not want the sound) then click "Export." I end up with a 300mb file. I don't understand why the file is 10x larger than what I started with???
    Ultimately, I need to create a video file that will be linked from a PowerPoint presentation.
    Any other advice for exporting video from Premiere CS5 would be greatly appreciated! Like what's the best for web?

  • Is It Possible To Get 5.1 Digital Sound from a DVD Player or my P

    I use my computer as my home entertaniment system as it has a TV Card and all that. I have my Dish Channels coming in through my computer as well as my Playstation 2 and my Samsung DVD Player. So far I have never been able to get anything more than 2. quality audio from these sources even though they have 5. sound capability. Is there some external device I am missing. I have a Dell installed Sound Blaster Li've Card. Any thoughts on this would be prime. Thanks.

    You can export 5.1 wav files from Premiere with no problem, what you can't do is export Dolby Digital 5.1. Premiere will let you export stereo Dolby Digital but not the surround files, that requires Surcode. If your playback system can cope with wav. you don't need Surcode but if you are making dvs or Bluray you do.

Maybe you are looking for
