Adobe Premiere CS5 DV Capturing Issues

Hi! I've really searched the internet to find someone with the problem I have and I unfortunately failed. Please help me if you know anything about solving this issue.
So.. I can capture video when I connect my camera to my iMac (via firewire), but every new clip I capture has a different resolution and often low quality sound. I'm recording in 16bit, while the program sometimes captures in 12 or 8bit. It doesn't make sense. Is iMac from end 2010 too modern to capture DV footy properly? I somehow doubt, but I had to ask anyway. Since I don't have my PC around, I have to wait for weeks to go back home (another city) to capture all the footy in Windows where there is no such problems.
I hope you can help me! Thanks in advance!

Hi Dino,
No experience with CS5 or Premiere since OS9 days.
Do you have iMovie to try to import from the camera?
Long shot on the sound, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back

Adobe premiere pro cs4 capturing issue.

The camera that I have is a sony hdv cam £1200, my pc is a quad core system with a firewire port on the back of the motherboard (new system). My friend who used it previously used it on his apple mac and had no problems in capturing. This is the first problem, I plug in the firewire cable with no notification of new hardware installing(dont know if there usually is). I load up cs4, hit F5 and it states that the device is offline. The settings on the camera, as far as i can see, are all setup aswell as well as the preferences on premiere.
Thanks for reading and if anyone can shed some light on this then thanks!

Welcome to the forum.
I'd suggest starting a new thread, so as to not get folk confused on your particular system and issues. Heck, I have trouble not being confused with but one system.
When you do post, the more info that you can provide, the fewer questions that will be asked. This ARTICLE will give you some tips. In your case, you would add all necessary info on your camera too.
Good luck,
Hunt

Windows edited/saved project crashing on mac (adobe premiere cs5)

hi there
i really hope you can help.
i have edited video files on adobe premiere cs5 on a windows 7 machine and saved the project ffiles on an external drive formy friend to colour grade and finalise etc
he can open the video files in adobe premiere, but its crashing his mac system and some video files arent opening
he says he has all the latest codec files but it has gone to the extent of the files crashing his system and it won't boot..
my files were a mixture of mpeg and avi files...
is there anything that can be causing this problem.
he is in a different city from me, so i am not going to see him for a while and i want these video files edited as soon as really
thanks and i hope you can suggest thingss that may help finding the problem

Welll you wont be able to if you do not have the computer anymore.
Do a search on EDLs in Premiere (or any NLE) so you know about them for next time.
Whatever...I suspect the issue is at your colleagues end and needs to be sorted there. Someone with a Mac may chime in on how PPRO win project files and PPro Mac project files work.

Not a problem; not scolding, just suggesting that users there might be of more help, since CS5/CS5.5 is a whole different animal than CS4.
I suspect that, if setting playback to full resolution didn't help, there's not much you can do with these files as they are. You'll have to convert them to something else. Does the break up appear when you step through the video frame by frame? If not, you could use AME to convert these to something else, which will then let you edit a little more effectively in Premiere Pro.
EDIT: Sorry, missed that you said that exporting retained the blobs. In light of that, you'll have to look at a third-party converter to flip these. MPEG Streamclip for Windows might work.

.FCP files in Adobe Premiere CS5

I'm using Adobe Premiere CS5 at work - on a PC. I just got several hours of video footage that's been captured in Final Cut Pro. The footage is in the .FCP format and need to be imported into Adobe Premiere CS5. what is the easiest way of doing this?
Is it possible to import .FCP files directly into Premiere?
Any help is appreciated - thank you.

A .FCP file is not footage; it's a Final Cut Pro project file. There is no way to import that file directly into Premiere. Instead, the project will have to be exported as a Final Cut Pro XML document from FCP--any computer with FCP can do this, so all you have to do is email the FCP file to that individual, who can open it and export as an FCP XML document. When this is emailed back to you, you import it into Premiere as any other asset, and the XML document will be converted to a Premiere Pro project. You can then relink to the media you already have.
Do note that the FCP -> PPro translation is not 100%; there are some things that don't travel over at all, and some things that don't travel well. Check out the help docs for more information: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WSd9957a95a81082eb28f05af5126718c47be-800 0.html

Nikon CoolPix P7000 and Adobe Premiere CS5.5

Just purchased Adobe Premiere CS5.5 and want to hook up my Nikon CoolPix P7000 camera to import video. Any advice related to this camera in particular or cameras in general and capturing video to Premiere would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kyle

Capturing is only possible over firewire from tape based cameras. Your material needs to be imported, after you have copied all the data from your card to harddisk, including the complete directory structure.

How do I get my Adobe Premiere CS5.5 workspace to work

I am having trouble getting my workspace in Adobe Premiere CS5.5 to open up. Nothing works and I cannot figure out why. Can anyone help? I have tried to reinstall the program and resesting the workspace and it did not help.

Per the following your headset uses the HFP or the HSP profile. The iPod only supports the A2DP profile for headphones.

Adobe Premiere CS5 and Open Directory users - Premiere fails to start

We have several class rooms with desktops that are configured for Open Directory.
When a student logs in he's actually working in his home folder on the server and his user is also managed by the server.
This works fine for all the applications that we're using except for Adobe Premiere CS5 and Adobe After Effects CS5. Whenever a student tries to start one of them the application will hang and only a force quit can stop it. It is impossible to start these applications.
However, it is possible to use Premiere and After Effects using a local standard on the desktops. But I don't want to go that route. I want the managed users to be able to use those applications.
Has anyone found a solution for this?
Are you able to use this applications in a same environment?
I've played a lot with the permissions on the library, system and Adobe folders, but the problem doesn't seem to be related to them.
Setup:
AFP Server: Xserve intel running Mac OS X Server 10.6.5
OD Servers: Mac Mini Servers running Mac OS X Server 10.6.5
Clients: iMacs intel running Mac OS X 10.6.6

Safe Mode disables a lot of drivers and services, like networking. That would seem to indicate that something is running on your system that interferes somehow.
I'm just not sure how you'd go about tracking that down.

Can I run Adobe Premiere CS5.5 on MacbookPro with Lion??

For the love of GOD!! Can someone please explain to me why I cannot effectively use Adobe Premiere CS5.5 on my MacBook Pro (Lion OS)??? I've tried getting all updates from both Adobe and Apple, still no luck. Playback is horribly choppy, resolution is diminished and the program appears to be useless...no one at Apple seems to know anything about Adobe. Sorry if this quesiton has already been proposed, but is their a basic overall solution to get Premiere to run on lion???

Did you first enter your Creative Suite 6 serial number followed by your Creative Suite 5.5 serial number for Adobe Premiere? Is Adobe Premiere CS5.5 a upgrade version as well? If so what did you upgrade from?

Adobe Premiere CS5.5 - Special Effect

In Adobe Premiere CS5.5, I have the ability to add video clips and images. However, what I’m not sure how to do, is this: I want to add a “transparent” video “layer” over top of a still image. I want that transparent video layer to be smoke rising, and the still image behind it to be a simple text JPG slide. The end product would be a ‘title slide’ announcing a chapter, with smoke rising in front of the title slide. I have no idea how to make this happen- maybe it can’t be done in Premiere. Maybe it has to be done in Adobe After Effects.

Hi swanva,
Do you have a clip of the smoke, or do you need it create it from scratch? If it's the latter, you can create it in After Effects. See this tutorial: http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorial/smoke_screen/
Thanks,
Kevin

Adobe Premiere CS5.5 GOPRO HERO

Hi, I need your help. I'm trying to import a GOPRO HERO movie to Adobe premiere CS5.5. It imports the file, but when I click it twice to open it in the source monitor the software hangs and closes. I think it's a mp4 file: 1920x1080p / 25fps. Another problems: I want to import about 300 JPG pictures to make a time lapse movie: it happens the same! The software hangs and closes: the pictures are 2592x1944 pixels: what am I supposed to do? Thanks a lot.
Maximo Xavier.

In fact my software was hanging due to my sli system; I turned it off, now it is working perfectly! You know that it's impossible importing still images as an image sequence to Ad. premiere, you can do this with Af. Effects only. To make a movie with the still images, I have done the following...
The JPEG pictures are 2592x1944 pixels, so I created a sequence with resolution close to this...
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kCpUXsfKoSs/UaEuH6eDJXI/AAAAAAAABfc/Rnah9XAYP4E/s1600/SHOT53.jpg
I went to preferences > general > I Changed each still image defaullt duration to 1 frame as you can see in the link below.
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7ziAKSBK4v8/UaEuSEmTnwI/AAAAAAAABfk/CK2LTMVvAY4/s1600/SHOT50.jpg
So when I drag all the still pictures to the timeline, each still image should behave as a frame of a movie, shouldn't it? But it doesn't, look at this.

See in the last link? Each stil image / frame lasts 5 seconds! I have to select all of them and changing its duration to 00;00;00;01. It works, but it takes a lot! How could I make my life more simple?
