ACVHD Sequence Setting in CS5.5

A couple of questions Thanks in advance.
I used a Sony HDR-CX190 to shoot some footage I also used Canon S100 Still camera to shoot in HD in both cases it was recorded onto a SanDisk Extreme SD card which is a Class 10

I edit AVCHD http://forums.adobe.com/thread/652694 with a few pictures thrown in between video clips... to end up with a DVD... I always edit in the "native" setting for the video, with size changes for a DVD only at the end
Always start your project with a video clip, so the project is correct for the video, and add pictures later... at least until you get used to how to set a project to match what you are going to edit
My PERSONAL choice is to export from PPro as Widescreen DV AVI to then author in Encore, and let Encore do "automatic" transcoding to fit my selected single or dual layer DVD size... so I don't have to get into bit budgets and transcode settings
When I create a DVD from my HiDef source it looks FAR better than the DVD's I used to create from an 8mm tape camera... which I expected, due to the much better source video

Video camera compatibility for CS5? what sequence setting do I use?

I am new to the extraordinarily complex world of hard drive/hybrid cameras. I have always used tape and firewires with few problems. A student came in today with new camera she just bought a Panasonic SDR –H85. We downloaded a video file, but it would not import into Premiere. I also had no idea which of the dozen new sequence set-ups to use. How do I find out camera compatibility for CS5? (Adobe doesn’t list specific models.) And what sequence setting do I use?

Thanks for your help! For some reason we had a hard time finding these specs. It looks like it is a SD camera, not a High Definition camera (the HD on the side of the camera mistakenly meant Hard Drive, not High Definition?)
At any rate we now need to use the Adobe media encoder to convert the file so that we can import it into Premiere ….all with a loss of quality due to the re-rendering. (btw, what is the best file to re-render?). I suggested that the student who just bought it return it for a camera (preferably High Def) that will work in Premiere. Any suggestions?

How do I set up CS5.5 educator edition pack when instructions do not match info on my CS5.5 package?

How do I set up CS5.5 educator edition pack when instructions do not match info on my CS5.5 package?

I have a 22-space alphanumeric product code for my Adobe creative suite 5.5 web premium package.
It does not have the 24-space alphanumeric code that is the product code sequence asked for when signing up for adobe procuct code approval. Adobe keeps asking for a correct code and I only have the one they gave me in the package, called a product code, but adobe keeps rejecting it.
Also, the program never loads correctly - it says this at the end of the 45-minute loading from the disc. That is getting awfully tiresome as well. I have everything closed as they request, and do not know how to turn off the virus protection which is windows defender.
Also, mine is a new teacher edition, and when I go to the page for getting my approval, it will not open that page. I have used Adobe products before with typical annoying hassle but always eventual success. So this really is perturbing.

Hello all,
I can't open a PP project without this error message appearing:
"The preset used by one or more sequences in this project requires third-party components that could not be located. These sequences will be modified to use a custom sequence setting instead. To continue editing using the original preset, quit the application without saving the project, reinstall any third-party components that are required and reopen the project".
What I had been doing before this occurred was editing a PP project using ProRes sequences and multi-camera editing. Multi-camera was not working very well and after a few attempts to fix that I gave up and finished the job cutting 3 layers of video instead. AME refused to render the three finished sequences of over 1hr duration so rendered final videos from the PP sequences.
I tried deleting plists for AME, PP and QT, repairing disc permissions and rebooting but there was no improvement.
Client is satisfied for now but will want to come back to this job at a later date so decided to uninstall and re-install AME and PP in the hope both would be ready to work properly when needed again. AME works fine in conjunction with a different PP project but now I can't open the PP project in question without the above error message appearing.
Having searched the net it would seem that the problem may be caused by ProRes but I haven't been able to find a definitive solution for the problem. Does anyone know either:
1. How to fix this?
2. If I chose the "modified using a custom sequence setting", can I be sure that my sequences will look the same even if they don't use ProRes? The final deliverable format will be mp4 so as long as the overall look doesn't change then I can afford a change in the edit codec. It's just that with three sequences over an hour long, I don't want days of work to be ruined.
Other older PP projects of mine open and work fine.
Premiere Pro CC 8.2.0
Media Encoder CC 8.2.0.54
OSX 10.10.2
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Duncan.

Adobe web chat come up with a solution.
Open the PP project.
Export your sequence or project as a Final Cut Pro XML file.
Set up a new PP project.
Import the Final Cut Pro XML file.
This will get you back up an running.
Since getting back to editing this project I have found that some things will be lost or change in using XML:
You will lose position key framing, black video clips, dissolve fx, audio levels, audio dynamic fx, the ability to open a multi camera clip and change the camera view.
You will keep cut points, crop fx.
Not perfect but only took a couple of hours to save 3 days work.

What sequence setting should I use for a High Quality Video Montage?

I am about to start a new project for a client using photographs only. I have two questions:
1. What should I use for the sequence settings? Should I edit with a HD sequence setting?
2. I am going to scan the pics myself. What Pixel or resolution is appropriate to get the best quality? I'm looking for wide screen 16 x 9, not 3 x 4.

First, decde how you are going to deliver this production to your client. Then tell us what that delivery medium will be. Then we'll have some advice for you.
See the section in the FCP manual on using still images. You need to understand that in video there are only pixels, no dots per inch or lines per inch. Those terms are meaningless in video. You wil sand at a size in raw pixels that is only slightly larger than your delivery format.

Final Cut Pro: Sequence Setting Question

I would like to know what the best sequence setting is for my FCP project.
In my project I mostly use digital still images, shot with a digital camera. I import images into FCP and directly drag them onto a sequence.
JPEG file dimensions 3488x2616
For making stop motion animation, the duration of each frame is extremely short, usually 00:00:00;03.
If the project is 60 seconds, it usually ends up with about 550 or more still images on a sequence.
What should be the appropriate sequence setting for it?
Frame Size: currently set for NTSC DV (3:2)
Pixel Aspect Ratio: currently set for NTSC-CCIR601/DV (720x480)
Quicktime Video Settings/Compressor: currently set for DV/DVCPRO-NTSC
in the Advanced field/Frame per Second: currently set for 29.97
Are these settings need to be made before editing the project or could setting changes still be applied to a finished project?
Any advice would be appreciated!!

Hi Tom,
I export QT movie and make it into a DVD using DVD studio pro.
I was trying to learn about the ProRes the other day but there are many kinds and could not figure out what the best one is for me.
Which prores preset could I use? and could I still change it even the project is done editing?
Many thanks!

What sequence setting would you use to edit 1280 x1080 DVCProHD (P2) and 1920 x 1080 AVCHD (Sony) in FCP. Experiencing Quality and rendering issues.

What sequence setting would you use to edit both 1280 x1080 DVCProHD (P2) and 1920 x 1080 AVCHD (Sony) in a single timeline in FCP. I'm experiencing quality and rendering issues. I've tried numerous settings but can't seem to figure this one out. Thanks for your assistance.

Although you can combine the avchd 1920x1080 material with prores 1920x1080 in the same timeline, you might land up saving time just converting everything to 1920x1080 prores 422. You'd probably reduce the amount of rendering while you're working and exporting when you're done by a great deal. This workflow will require much more drive space.

Problem: Sequence setting for adobe premiere pro CS 5.5

I'm using Adobe Pr to edit my video. When I import the video (details as below) to pr, it does not have any image (got sound only)
I'm very confuse about the sequence setting. I'm still new in using adobe software.
Which sequence should be suitable for my video editing?
Camera : Canon EOS 70D
Frame size : 1280 x 720
Frame Rate : 50 frame / second

Does the video play in the Project Window (as shown below) or Source Monitor?
Is there a videofile (apart from the audio part) in the timeline. Does it show black or is the videotrack empty. Has the video track been targeted?

How to customize sequence setting

Hi,
It is probably a very basic question but cannot find how to customize the sequence settings.
When I created new project, I chose NTCS setting.
The movie source I used is 1280x960. When I drag it in the sequence window, it doesn't fit in the format. (It looks like it crops the movie)
I clicked on Sequence Setting menu to edit, but size is in grey and therefore cannot change the size.
Does anyone can explain me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Start over by making a new sequence, hit General, then change the Editing Mode to Desktop (dropdownmenu)
Now you can set everything manually.
Copy content old sequence into this new sequence if you do not want to edit all over.

.MTS transfer headache, and sequence setting suggestion needed

Hello forum users...
I am trying to edit a sequence with scenes captured on a variety of recording devices (SONY AVCHD, GoPro, and ScreenFlow screen capture)...It's a headache enough to try and get them all to match up for size and compression. I bought emicsoft's conversion software and converted the original .MTS files from a folder on my desktop into .MOV files. FCP could read them (although I sometimes get a red bar on the timeline when I bring them in...), but when reviewing the original .MTS compared to the new .MOV I noticed a drop in quality.
I researched on the forums and saw how people were suggesting to convert the .MTS through the "Log and Transfer" feature... I tried this and was given this message: "00009.MTS" has invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches the supported media.
...so i researched further, and saw I needed to drop the file into Final Cut Pro>Capture scratch folder, which I have done, but when I try to bring the file into the Log and Transfer window I still get an error message, or if I try and just drag and drop, the icon for the original .MTS is grayed out.
...I kinda have steam coming out of my ears about now, so any suggestions would be extremely grateful...
P.S. while I have your attention, any suggestions on what "sequence setting" I need to choose if I am using these converted .MTS files in addition with other files that are mpeg4 (1440x1080) and DVNTSC (1920x1080)???????
THANKS!THANKS!THANKS!!!!

I converted to a .MOV file (mpeg4) because I thought that was the best option I had using emicsoft's conversion software...you practically need a machete to get through all the options. Unfortunately Quicktime prores isn't on the list...
I got the MPEG Stream clip file, but when I open the .mts files I get a message: "unrecognized file type", so I got the Clipwrap program trial, and it looks like I can just convert .mts to prores 422 from there..
Which I did, and imported into FCP. Opened and played beautifully...it asked if I wanted to set the sequence to match the clip, I said yes. But then I brought in my .mov files (captured from SCREENFLOW, and also shot on the GoPro camera -at a different frame size), and imported them into the time line... the screenflow one became really small and went to the upper left corner and the rest of the canvas screen was some pink and green posterized version of the clip, and then when i brought in the gopro it couldn't play ("unrendered").
the screenflow.mov wouldn't open in Clipwrap, so I went into streamclip to convert to 422, and converted the gopro .mov also to 422.
I went back and imported all 3 different file types... the MTS converted to 422 played beautifully, the screenflow converted to 422 played beautifully, the gopro converted to 422 came up UNRENDERED in the timeline with a red bar across...
...now the gopro shoots at a different frame size..its not full letterbox, it come up more like a square..1280x960
I AM SO CLOSE...75% there... I THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP!
BUT, last issue to solve (for the time being...;) ...how can i get the 1280x960 clip to show up rendered?? I ran it thru streamclip and converted to 422, so that isn't the issue...
THANKS!THANKS

Setting Bridge CS5 to run Photoshop x32 for Tools

How can I set Bridge CS5 to call on the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5 for commands from the Tools menu instead of the 64 bit version? I have it set to open files into the 32 bit version, this is just for the scripted actions in the Tools menu.

I have a question about this opening from bridge/ photoshop thing.
So let me get this straight, if I'm in bridge and I select an image it will open ACR in 32 bit mode. If that's true I can understand that. Here's the problem, how do I open ACR from photoshop with a raw image I have selected from photoshop, type in the whole file name and path by hand? Do I open bridge from photoshop and then select my image and that opens ACR in 64 bit method?
I just don't understand the method or why it makes any real difference.

How to set InDesign CS5 as the default in the system having InDesign CS4 has the default ?

How to set InDesign CS5 as the default .indd application when you have InDesign CS4 and CS5 installed and InDesign CS4 is the current default (InDesign CS4 was installed after CS5 installation)

Thanks, but I already tried it at first but it is not the effective method.
I think its because of the this reason :
Both - InDesign CS4 and InDesign CS5 have their application/program/exe named as "indesign.exe".
Installation of either InDesign CS4 or InDesign CS5, sets a Windows default path for the "indesign.exe". In this case, since InDesign CS4 was installed later (after InDesign CS5 was already installed), the "indesign.exe" which was directing InDesign CS5's "indesign.exe" was replaced by InDesign CS4's "indesign.exe".
But after long google and search through regedit, I've got the solution :
Locate HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\InDesign.Document\Shell\Open\Command in regedit
Change the value of (Default) attribute to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS5.5\InDesign.exe" "%1" // Include the quotes

Please explain the relationship between sequence setting and output

I am looking for an explanation of the sequence setting and the output settings (Mac Quad core, 10.7.4 - CS6 Production Premium, PR) I am primarily working in AVC-I 100 and XDCam. I've found that I can drop in AVC-I into a Seq and it will set the Seq to that codec. Many times I'll need to send the in-progress and final edits to my clients as an WMV (HD) video file. In FCP, I would export the self contained seq and use Episode to transcode to wmv. I'm having trouble understanding the best way to do this in PR (CS6). I've found that if I leave the Seq setting to the AVC-I, the render and the file output is a 50% quality mpeg-I. Is it best to set up a custom sequence w/ ProRes as the render codec? I'm having a hard time finding or getting an explanation of best practices for this type of operation. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
jim

Remember I said you could force Pr to use your rendered preview files instead of the source media for export? Selecting Match Sequence Settings in the Export Media dialog is how you force it. Don't do that. And don't shoot the messenger -- I've lobbied against that label for that control for 2 versions now.
Some Export formats, like H.264 Blu-ray and MPEG2-DVD, have an available Preset called "Match Source Attributes". If you choose that Preset, you get something like this:
