Adobe Encore CS6 Licensing issues

Adobe Encore CS6 licensing: Cannot be run in trial mode. Please relaunch the application and provide a valid serial number.
Uninstalled and reinstalled the application, ran the 6.0.2 update. When the error comes up, it does not give me a window to enter the proper serial number. The user has Adobe CS6 Production Premium installed and every other component is registered correctly.
What can I do from here?

Sorry I couldn't help... when I installed CS5 Master Collection Encore was "automatically" registered... along with all other parts of the MC... when I entered the serial number during install
As far as I know, there is no way to individually enter a serial number in Encore... it is SUPPOSED to be registered when you enter the number during install
So, calling the activation number may be your best option
Also, to un-and-re install, read below
Read first... I think this is also for versions later than CS5

Look of image-based subtitles in Adobe Encore

Hello,
I'm using Adobe Encore CS5.1 and I would like to create a simple Blu-ray with image-based selectable subtitles. For this I produce a FAB Image Script with the appropriate PNG files in an external application and import the FAB Image Script into Encore. So far, everything works fine and it is no problem to get the subtitles in sync to the video/audio. The problem is that the subtitles look ugly (extremly pixelated edges) as soon they are imported into Encore although the PNG files look perfectly sharp with smooth edges when I open them in Photoshop.
Does anybody know what I have to do that the subtitles also look nice in Encore? I played around with the import settings in Encore ("Map Color" window), but I didn't find a way to bring the subtitles into my Encore timeline in an acceptable style.
I would appreciate any help very much!
Can it be that I have to choose another option to produce and import the subtitles?
Does anybody know if there is a difference between Encore CS5.1 and CS6 regarding this topic?
Thank you!
Best regards
Mark

No, I am surprised that this hasn't been sorted out. My feeling is that I must be doing something wrong. I have been playing around wiuth subs in encore, and the text feature has been producing the best results. Check this out:
Even with this I had to adjust the size, kern, etc, and sometimes the adjustments were really small. I would love more advice on the subject.
Thanks!

My subtitles in Adobe Encore are extremely pixelated

My subtitles in Adobe Encore are extremely pixelated, even after I change the quality of the project. Any ideas how to make the text crisp and a nice looking resolution? The text should be flawless I would imagine- it's only text!
Using CS5.5
Created and imported .txt file subtitles (currently don't have the means to create a .scc file)
The project settings are 1280x720, 29fr
I am using a simple text, Arial, 22pt, Bold outline.
The quality of the text is horrible! Help!
See screen shot below-- this is viewing at 200%

I'm sort of having the same problem. My most problematic text is a vector logo that is text based (thick script and sans serif). The original logo was created in Illustrator. My exported video (with scale-animated logo at the end) looks good enough, and I created a menu in Photoshop that also contains the logo in the background. I scaled the vector down when I placed it in both these instances. Previewing these elements in Encore CS6 they still look sharp and clear. But then burn the DVD, and the DVD played back looks awful. The entire menu is pixelated, but the script logo is the worst. Its terribly pixelated with humongous jaggies (the original video is HD 1440x1080 and the menu is also formatted that size). Then when the logo comes on in the video it is hard to read and there are black horizontal lines going through it.
I've tried changing project settings (not many options there) and export settings, but nothing I do helps the final burnt DVD at all.

DVD Studio Pro vs. Adobe Encore

Hi folks!
I've been working now with DVDSP for nine years and it ALWAYS did a perfect job, no crashes, no bugs, no strange behaviour on burned discs, no trouble importing .txt-files for subtitles; really a perfect piece of software with awesome opportunities!!!
The ONLY thing that bugs me is it's incapability of authoring Blu-Ray and we're
getting more and more clients asking for this! So my boss told me to look around and find out which application can author Blu-Rays.
I came across Adobe Encore and Sonic's Scenarist. On the Encore-forums there
seems to be a lot of complaints about crashes, bugs, strange behaviour etc. So I'm kinda wondering if that would be the right tool. Or have you guys heard different (positive) things about Encore???
My Question: what do YOU do, when faced with Blu-Ray? I know, Final Cut has an option to turn/burn the content of the timeline into a Blu-Ray-Disc. But you of course have no complex authoring options like scripts and stories. And most of all, you can't view the disc on a MAC (yet)!
So how do you guys deal with Blu-Ray-Jobs?
Ever since HD DVD was "killed", I was waiting for Apple to announce Blu-Ray capabilities for DVD Studio Pro!!! I really hope they won't miss out on it!!!
Let me know what you think, please. This would be very interesting for all DVD Studio Pro users, I guess
Until then, happy authoring!
Cheers,
Steven R.

Encore is useless for BD. You want to look at Netblender's tool:

Adobe Encore and Creative Cloud Help...

Hello,
I am using Creative Cloud. I tried to access the Encore program but it was not there. I went to Adobe training and was instructed to UNinstgall the Premiere CS6 trial I had been suing but to leave the Encore intact. I did this but it still wont let me open the Encore. I get the following error message.
Adobe Encore.exe
This program can’t start because amtlib.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
I am running a Windows machine with Windows 8.
Can you help? I need to know how to access Adobe Encore.
Thanks

So you were using the Premiere Pro CS6 trial?
I would uninstall Encore CS6 from your computer, then reboot.
Log into CC and download Premiere Pro CS6 as described in these steps. Then run PPro CS6 to make sure it works, and that you're NOT in trial mode. Close PPro CS6. Then run Encore CS6.
If this works, then you can uninstall PPro CS6, leaving only Encore CS6.

Adobe Story Script integration with Premiere Pro Doesnt allow me to embed the script

Goal: Embed an Adobe Story Script into Premiere Pro. (mac)
Method: I have a video with a verbatim transcript.
I inport the transcript into Adobe Story and save it in the proper Adobe Story File extension (.astx)
I save it to the Adobe cloud and I have also exported it to my desktop.
I launch Premiere Pro and import the video that I have transcribed.
The I try one of 3 ways to get the script to the video in PP.
The first steps are the same as below:
I go to Adobe Story and log in from within PP.
I locate the file.
I add a Scene.
I make sure the scene is the same as it is within PP
then...
1.
I drag and drop it onto the Movie file.
Nothing appears within the Embed Adobe Story Script Meta Data field.
2.
I click on Analyze and the Embed Adobe Story Script script checkbox remains greyed out (Unable to select it)
If I click Analyze then PP will analyze the script (does a decent job) but this is NOT what I want. I want to attach the verbatim script to the video which is why I have it transcribed.
3.
Right click on the movie file within PP and the contextual menu allows me to attach a script.
I locate my downloaded .astx file on my Mac and select it.
Still nothing appears within the Embed Adobe Story Metadata field.
I have worked with Anand from support who suggested I post this question here.
I dont know if there are only certain Adobe templates for which this will work (ie TV script, Film etc)
He suggested that this would most likely work only for the .mov file formats, but then discovered that it should work even for .mp4 files.
In any case - if anyone has any thoughts, ideas, or has experience with this It would be greatly appreciated.

Trying to use Adobe Encore to create a manual advance keynote BD-ISO

Hi All,
Background:
I'm a media designer that produces corporate media content for a recruiting firm.
Objective:
I'm trying to devise a way for presenters in our sales offices to run standardized group interview and training HD keynote shows without the use of a DVD player or a laptop on their LCD screens.
Laptops= every manager needs an apple computer and keynote software to run the content + its messy to have to manage wired connections to the mounted LCD panels all the time.
DVD Players= any updates that are required to this content from time to time make the idea of re-shipping physical DVD's logistically undesirable.
Proposed Solution:
Perminently integrate a BD-ISO (menu) compatible HD media player into our office setups that will run manual advance Keynote BD-ISO's (created in Encore) where any new updates can just be downloaded from a central server in the form of a Blu-ray master iso image by the end-user, dropped on their USB flash drive, and played through the media player.
Here's the workflow I've come up with (Problem to follow):
1. Design a 1280x720 keynote presentation in Apple iWork's Keynote '09
2. Export a timed (Intervals: 5 sec/between each slide & 2 sec/between each object animation) h.264 | 1280x720 | 29.97 quicktime .mov file
3. Create Blu Ray Encore Project (1280x720, h.264, 29.97)
4. Import .mov file as timeline
5. Insert chapter markers at the beggining of every animation/transition (On diagram below- I'm talking about Ch. 3 & 5)
6. Insert a second chapter marker directly before each of the previous set of chapter markers as close together as encore will allow (On diagram below- I'm talking about Ch. 2 & 4)
7. Set "end action" on each of the second set of chapter points (Ch. 2 & 4 below) to "Link back to here" so that the still image hold that occures after each "keynote animation" (thanks to the 2 sec hold time I set in the Keynote export- see step 2 above) is isolated so the playback loops on that chapter (which is a still frame because of the 2 sec pause between animations as set in keynote export).
Note on this technique: Idea is to set up the timeline and chapter end actions so that the playback loops on a few identical frames that exist between the two "extremely-close-together" chapter points (creating a "pause" effect) until the end user hits "Next Chapter" button on remote to jump to the proceeding chapter that contains the next keynote animation or tranistion.
Diagram:
(timeline-> ...---------------Ch.2<-- -->Ch.3(beggining of animation)-------------------------------------(end of animation)Ch.4<-- -->Ch.5------------------------->)
8. Set "First Play," "Title Button," and "Timeline End Action" to Ch.1 of the timeline (so it starts there when ISO is activated and loops back to there at the end of the presentation).
9. Export as "Blu-ray" Image
10. Load iso file on a USB flash drive, plug it into BD-ISO (menu) supported media player, and run the ISO and Voila!! = HD Keynote presentation running from BD-ISO file on a media player. PERFECT SOLUTION....
PROBLEM:
One of the most marketable (due to affordable price-point) BD-ISO (full menu support) media players is the HDX BD1. When I run the ISO file on this unit, it will play the first chapter, and pause and loop on chapter 2 like it is supposed to, creating the pause effect; But when I select "next chapter" it says "cannot_execute"- and I cannot proceed to the next transition/animation. I've previewed the setup in the encore preview feature and it behave's perfectly.
I'd be quick to say its a hardware issue but I've checked out several YouTube videos with people demoing this exact media player running and navigating feature film BD-ISO's (selecting "next chapter" and all) without any issues at all.
I've mastered something similar to this technique using DVDSP on SD DVD's, because DVDSP allows me to infinitley pause playpack ON each chapter point, not even needing the use of the "loop" feature I've set up in encore; But Adobe Encore doesn't offer a "pause" end action so I've come up with this as the next best thing. Although it doesn't play back properly on a full BD-ISO NAVI supported media player.
QUESTIONS:
1. Based on this setup, is there anything obvious I'm missing in Adobe Encore that would eleviate this playback problem on the media player?
2. Is there another authoring workflow within Encore that would allow me to acheive Keynote motion graphic, manual-advance slideshows?
Thanks for help in advance.

Hi Chad,
The most probable explanation is that Encore is creating incorrect navigation commands. It is well known and documented that Encore Blu-ray navigation works only for the simplest cases.
This should be easy to fix using BluStreak Tracer, Rivergate Software's upcoming post-authoring solution:
http://blustreak.dvdafteredit.com/blustreak-tracer-macintosh
If you will prepare a small test case (1 GB or less) and post it on an FTP server, I will take a look and attempt to update it for you. You can contact me through our web site's contact page.

I am trying to import subtitles to Adobe Encore but am getting error messages...

I am trying to import subtitles from a software called Aegisub to Adobe Encore, but i am receiving this error message:
The software that is used to decode the media is not available on this system. Installing the correct decoders for the files you are working with may help to correct the problem.
I have exported the subtitles as an Encore text file but it still won't allow me attach these to my video. I have exported the video from Premiere as an H.264 and that slots into Encore just fine, i just need to use Encore to attach the subtitles.
Can anyone tell me what i might be doing wrong?
Thank you.

Thanks Stan. I think this is probably the answer but seeing as i am doing this at work, it is telling me the action was stopped because it needs to be checked by an administrator.
If i manage to succeed, i shall let you know. I was trying to import as an asset, wrongly, so this is probably going to be the solution.
Thank you

"Adobe encore a cessé de fonctionner" (Adobe Encore has stopped working)

English version below
Bonjour,
J'ai un problème depuis que j'ai installé Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 et qu'Adobe Encore CS6 a été installé en même temps.
Voilà en fait Adobe Premiere Pro ne reconnaît pas ma carte graphique (là n'est pas le souci, je savais que je n'arriverai sûrement pas à démarrer le programme avec mon laptop), mais j'ai aussi un problème assez incompréhensible avec Adobe Encore.
Que je le lance normalement ou en tant qu'administrateur, Encore se lance en ~5 secondes, une fenêtre apparaît en surimpression qui me propose d'ouvrir un document, de créer un nouveau document ou de "m'enquérir" des nouveautés du logiciel. Jusque là aucun souci le logiciel semble stable.
Mais dès que je clique sur nouveau , l'écran se grise et apparaît la tant redoutée boîte de dialogue "Adobe Encore a cessé de fonctionner", ça me dit que Windows essaye de résoudre le problème puis le programme s'arrête. Sans message supplémentaire de Windows ni rien. J'ai essayé de redémarrer, de supprimer le cache du logiciel et de windows, de lancer en admin, ... rien n'y fait.
En espérant que quelqu'un pourra un peu m'aider là dessus car je perd patience, merci d'avance !
Hi everyone,
I've had an issue since I installed Premiere Pro CS6 and Encore CS6 on my laptop.
Premiere Pro won't work, which is no surprise given my lame GPU, but Encore won't work.
In fact, when I launch it, Encore lauches in about 5 seconds and then it opens, a window pops up with 3 options : create a new file or project (cant remember the name), open a file or check the news related to Encore.
But Encore wont let me create a file : it crashes whenever I try and since I have no .enc file on my computer (first time user), I can't check the 'open file' option. The third choice does nothing but open a tab with adobe website on Google Chrome.
Please help in any way you can, I'm running out of patience here and don't know what to do !
Tristan

Premiere Pro won't work, which is no surprise given my lame GPU,
This must be fixed. The GPU only affects playback, not whether the program works.
Encore wont let me create a file : it crashes whenever I try
Many possibilities. Please answer the questions that you'll find at the link below:

PS3 (Playstation 3) issue not loading BDR Bluray | Adobe Encore CS6

I recently created a Bluray using Adobe Encore CS6, and the Bluray is not loading on my PS3, but is working fine on my other player (LG, Toshiba and PC). Does anyone have the same issue and found a solution? I need help on this as most of my client use their PS3 as Bluray player.
Authoring program: Adobe Encore CS6 with the Creative Cloud latest update
PS3 with latest firmware update (PS+ member with auto-update: on)
Video files: 1920x1080 FPS 23.976 Program Stream MPEG-2 for Bluray *.m2v (transcode with FCP Compressor)
Audio files: Dolby Digital Audio *.ac3
Burner software: CyberLink Power2Go V6
Burner hardware: HP BD Writer bd340i
Media: Verbatim BD-R 25GB 6x Speed
Project size: 20/25GB
The project setting in CS6 is: Blu-ray NTSC with MPEG-2 Codec at 1920x1080 at 23.976FPS
The “Check Project” shows no error. I build (output) as an image, then burn the *.ISO file using CyberLink Power2Go.
The BD-R work fine everywhere (LG & Toshiba player) except on my PS3. The BD-R has the BDMV and CERTIFICATE folder, so I don’t know why my PS3 don’t recognize it. And I have three PS3 at home; 1xPS3 80GB version (3yrs old) and 2xPS3 super slim (1yr old). All three are unable to see the BD-R. My PS3 work fine with all other media (games & movie Bluray); and I highly doubt that all three have trouble with the Bluray player.
I did the same process last time (in 2013) and everything is working fine, all the same configuration, except I used Adobe Encore CS4. My PS3 was able to read and recognize the BD-R. But since CS6, my PS3 don’t see the BD-R. I also put back the copy that I did last year with CS4 (just to make sure that is not a PS3 firmware issue) and the Bluray work fine. The media (Verbatim) come from the same tower (leftover from last year).
So everything point toward CS6…is there something that change from CS4 to CS6 for Bluray creation? Jumping from Encore CS4 to CS6, I don’t see anything different, but look like there is, because the Bluray can no longer be played on my PS3. Please help!

Create an ISO (Encore) or folder on your hard drive (Encore or Premiere Elements) and then use the FREE http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download to write files or folders or ISO to disc for DVD or BluRay (send the author a PayPal donation if you like his program)
Imgburn will read the ACTUAL disc brand from the disc, which is not always the same as the box label (Memorex is notorious for buying "anything" and putting it inside a Memorex box)
When you write to disc with Imgburn, use the SLOWEST possible speed setting, so your burner has the best chance to create "good, well formed" laser burn holes... since no player is required to read a burned disc, having a "good" one from a high quality blank will help

Why Does One See References to Adobe Encore in the PrE Forum?

Some forum subscribers have been puzzled at why Adobe Encore gets mentioned in the Premiere Elements Forum. There are some reasons, that many might not be immediately aware of, but first, let’s talk about what Adobe Encore is.
Adobe Encore is a full-featured, DVD-Video/BD (Blu-ray Disc) authoring application. Unfortunately, as of Premiere Pro CS 3, it is not longer available as a stand-alone product - it is only available bundled with Premiere Pro (CS 3 and later). Now for a little bit of history. Once Premiere Pro (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0) were sort of like Premiere Elements, in that they had limited DVD authoring features built right into the program. Like PrE, some of those features were semi-automatic, though not to the degree that PrE is. Up until PrPro CS 2, one had to buy Encore as a separate program, if they needed all of its features. With PrPro CS 2, a suite of video-production programs were bundled as “CS 2 Production Studio.” With that suite, one got Encore, along with some other Adobe programs, that are very useful for video-production, along with the Adobe NLE (Non Linear Editor) Premiere Pro, such as Adobe Illustrator (Vector Art program), Adobe Photoshop (Raster/pixel-based digital image manipulation program), Adobe After Effects (compositing and animation program), and Adobe Audition (Audio editing program). Even within that suite, Premiere Pro still had the limited authoring capabilities. Because of added features, that linked Premiere Pro to Encore more directly, Encore was changed enough, that it was taken off the market, and ONLY provided with Premiere Pro. With CS 3, Premiere Pro lost all authoring capabilities, as those were all relegated to Adobe Encore.
How does that affect Premiere Elements in any way? Well, Encore is based on the Sonic AuthorCore modules, which Adobe licenses from Sonic. Some of those are the same modules that exist in Sonic’s very expensive authoring application, Sonic Scenarist. In Encore, those Sonic modules are hidden behind what is termed an “abstraction layer,” and the user does not really see those - only the abstraction layer, that is thought of as Encore. Still, the heart and soul of Encore ARE those Sonic AuthorCore modules. They are what makes Encore run.
Premiere Elements shares some of those Sonic AuthorCore modules, though a smaller subset. In that regard, Premiere Elements and Encore are more like step-brothers, or at least first-cousins. Just like in Encore, one never sees the Sonic modules. as they are also hidden below an abstraction layer. In Premiere Elements, it goes beyond that, in that most of the authoring capabilities are semi-automatic. That ease of use, through the automation is a positive, on one hand, but the authoring functions end up being rather linear, and limited - still, for most users, that ease of use is a major attraction, in that they can author a DVD, or BD, easily and efficiently, with but a few steps and considerations. Here, Adobe Encore differs, though the two programs are closely related. In Encore, one gets many more features, and capabilities, but at the price of having to do everything by hand - almost zero automation at all. One gets additional power, but they must do all the work themselves. Not nearly so easy, as with Premiere Elements’ authoring.
Because of the common Sonic AuthorCore modules, there are instances where what works, or does not work in Encore, translates almost exactly to Premiere Elements. Many of the same problems and limitations can exist in both programs.
First, the biggest limitation is from the DVD-Video and BD specifications themselves. Both sets of specifications are extremely well-defined, and dictate specific requirements, if the DVD-Video/BD is to be 100% compliant, and play, as it should, on computers with DVD/BD software, or on appropriate set-top hardware players. Both Encore and Premiere Elements must deal with those specifications, and cannot deviate from them.
Next, because of the Sonic AuthorCore modules, that both programs share, there are some extra considerations, such as long file Paths, spaces in file names (common in most OS’s for a very long time now), some special characters in file names, that cause conflicts, etc.. Those often come into play more often with Encore, than with Premiere Elements, due to Elements’ semi-automation, and the fact that one is still working within the NLE, Premiere Elements, just in a different part of it. Because of some of those limitations, and concerns, one might see some Encore articles mentioned, or linked. As Adobe Encore has its own very active forum, much of that material has already been written there, so it’s easiest to just link to an Encore article, that has applications to Premiere Elements and its authoring capabilities.
Because the two programs have some major differences, regarding their features and capabilities, there are often requests to do more, regarding Menus, and navigation, in Premiere Elements. Because it is a simplified, more linear, and semi-automatic authoring application, it lacks much of the power, beyond simple DVD/BD authoring with a pretty limited form of navigation. When a user wishes to go beyond, they will require a different program. Encore is a possibility, BUT it is now only available WITH Premiere Pro (an expensive program, at about 7x the price of Premiere Elements), it’s not really viable, unless one also owns Premiere Pro. Another option is Sonic Scenarist, but since the full package is about US $ 50,000, and as it is designed for large commercial authoring studios, that is not really an option for most Premiere Elements owners. Next, there ARE other authoring applications, that ARE full-featured, and can offer that extra control, and navigation, such as the often-recommended Sony DVD Architect. At its base level, it is about US $39 for the download version. For even more power, Sony offers a “Pro” version, that is still quite inexpensive, especially compared to Sonic Scenarist, or Premiere Pro with Encore. When one needs to go beyond the rather limited authoring capabilities of Premiere Elements, the entry-level DVD Architect is a great value, and an excellent program. There are others available, but I see less written about them - still, with some research, a user might well find that they suit the needs, and for a much reduced price over Sonic Scenarist.
However, for most Premiere Elements users, the authoring capabilities built in, are all that they will require, and those will work for them in most cases. Most users will never need to go beyond those capabilities, and will likely benefit greatly from the provided semi-automation’s ease of use.

Will say the apps (games) that ask you to download another game to unlock something in there game is NOT using ads. They are all made by the same game company (or combination of companies) that are sharing data with each other and using their popularity of one game to promote their other games. It is not an ad service where somebody is getting paid for clicks but rather them getting more downloads for their products where they offer them for free and have advertising in them where they get paid for number of eyes viewing.
But with that said, this is a user to user forum, you are not talking to Apple here so nobody can fully answer you about "why".

Very poor video quality after transcoding in Adobe Encore CS5.1

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I have very poor video quality after transcoding the video file (MPEG) in Adobe Encore CS5.1. Below you see my used settings in my filmproject.
The problem exists after transcoding in Adobe Encore CS5.1. I checked all steps and found out that there is no problem until transcoding. My exported file in MPEG has very good video and audio quality.
Facts:
1. Camcorder: Panasonic AG-AC160AEJ
Operating System : Windows 7, 64 Bit, Ultimate edition
Source files: MTS files
Recording settings (clip settings):
Type: MPEG Movie
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Frame Rate: 25,00
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1,0
2. Sequence settings in Premiere Pro
Sequence was created from Clip directly with settings above.
3. Exporting settings in Adobe Premiere Pro:
Match sequence settings was activated. Now other changes were set.
4. Exported File:
Video
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Data Transfer Rate: 25920 kBit / s
Frame rate: 25
Audio:
Bit rate: 384 kBit / s
Channels: 2 (stereo)
Frequence: 48 kHz
5. Transcoding settings in Adobe Encore:
I used different transcoding settings such as automatic DVD Transcoding, CBR and VBR.I also set “use maximum render quality”. But all results were always the same: very poor quality.
Why does the encore transcoding cause such bad video quality?
How can I solve this problem?
Please help me soon.
Best regards.

Hi Ann,
1) I did not only „Automatic (based on source)“ options in my tests, but also many other customized options.
The results are very poor. I have done a new test with the following settings. The result is also poor:
Download link: http://www.klavierlehrer-bayern.de/download/test_mpeg2dvd_1.m2v
Export Settings:
Format: MPEG2-DVD
Preset: Custom
Codec: MainConcept MPEG Video, Quality: 5
Frame Rate: 25 fps
Field Order: Upper
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Automatic (based on source)
Render at Maximum Rate: [active]
Bitrate Encoding: VBR, 2 pass
Minimum Bitrate (Mbps): 5
Target Bitrate (Mbps): 9
Maximum Bitrate (Mbps): 9
GOP Settings
M Frames: 4
N Frames: 12
Use Maximum Render Quality: [active]
Multiplexer: None
2) Why shouldn’t I use the “Match Sequence Settings” in exporting? Because of the big output file size?
I used it and the results are very good as I expected:
Download link: http://www.klavierlehrer-bayern.de/download/test_MatchSequenceSettings.mpeg
Export Settings
Match Sequence Settings [selected]
1920 x 1080, 25 fps, Upper, Quality 50
User Maximum Render Quality: [active]
3) I tried also Dynamic Link in PremierePro (to Encore).
The results are also poor.
4) I will test also LagarithLoslessCodec and frameserving +DGMPGDec. But the video is vertical long drawn-ot.

Error in Adobe Java Script

Hi,
I am facing one issue while working in Adobe forms. My requriement is as follows.
Two Drop down lists are there. Say Z1 and Z2. Z1 will contain three values.( A1, A2, A3).
Assume for A1, the corresponding values in Z2 are (1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10).
Assume for A2, the corresponding values in Z2 are (1,2).
Assume for A3, the corresponding values in Z2 are (4).
By Default, A1 will appear in the Drop Down list Z1 and the corresponding values will be loaded in the Drop Down list Z2.
Now, the issue is that if we select 5 in Z2, and then if we go and select A3 in Drop down list Z1, then this 5 is getting appended in the dropdown list Z2 with 4 and displaying as (4,5).
But as per the selection, it should display only 4. This is happening in the cases only when the selected number in Z2 is not available in the current list of the selection from Z1. That is searching for unique entry.
Please suggest how to clear the memory in adobe java script, before the next value selected from the drop down list Z1.
Regards,
Prabu.

Hello,
1) note there is Adobe forms forum under NetWeaver, you can find me and other Adobe people there
2) check this:
Populate drop-down from a second drop-down:
