AVCHD presets in CS5 where? + Settings...

Am I being dumb, or do I need to load them from somehwere I have no AVCHD preset in the sequence or general tab when I create a new project
( in sequence I have DV24, DV NTSC, DV pal, DVC pro 50HD, Mobile and devices)
Finding it hard to find resources on line about editing AVCHD, so heres what I've got...
I get frequent glitches and weirdness in CS5 (rendered sections look terribl, occasional crashes. SOmetimes a single layer of AVCHD wont play smoothly, sometimes several layers will play fine).  I'm using mecury hardware playback with a GTX275. I shoot pal 1080p @ 25 and edit @ 720p
EDIT MODE: desktop
25 fps
1280x720, 16:9
Sqaure pixels

( I was using MS video one, had issues so I've swapped to p2 DVCPro 50 PAL)
Unticked max bit depth andrender quality

"**The trial version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 does not include some  features that depend on software licensed from parties other than Adobe.  For example, some codecs for encoding MPEG formats are available only  with the full version of this product."
Yes I read this, thought it pertained to export only (which doesn't faze me).
If it impacts playback of AVCHD files using h.264 codec, I'm all ears - and it would be ironic, because since using the trial I've actually been thinking about other editing platforms!! (Whereas before it was a forgon conclusion that I'd upgrade to the master collection).

  • Photoshop CS5 - colour settings in Print menu not working after update Mac OSX maverick

    After upgrading to Maverick OSX on the iMac printing from CS5 via Epson R3880 is not working correctly. In Print Settings menu the drop downs for Colour and Colour Settings are greyed out. I already re-installed PS and installed the new drivers from epson. Any ideas?

    but after choosing PS manages color, the options in the print menu for choosing color (color or b&W) and color settings are not available anymore. They used to be the last three years I printed with photoshop/epson 3880.
    Instead they are greyed out now.

    If Photoshop managed color, then the controls in the printer driver are supposed to be grayed out - that's how Apple specifies drivers to work (because only one party should be managing the print color).
    So what you're describing is perfectly normal.

  • PS CS5 - Where are my Smart Sharpen settings?

    I'm using PS CS5 and I know I had previously saved several customized smart sharpen settings. They're now MIA (they don't appear as options, just the default is there in the drop down), and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what PS has done with them.
    I'm currently using Win 7 Pro x64 if it makes any differece. I've looked in the usual area (C:\user....\ps cs5\presets) but there's nothing there.
    Any suggestions would be apreciated. Short of that, it looks like I'll have to create a dummy image and save the settings along with that, which would be crummy, to say the least.
    Thanks

    Do this:
    Save a set of Smart Sharpen settings as XYZZY or some unique name not likely to match any other file on your hard drive.
    Search the hard drive for that filename - for example, open a CMD window and type:  DIR C:\XYZZY.* /S
    If this turns up the "usual place" and your other settings aren't there, something has deleted them or the "usual place" isn't where it once was.  Have you changed logins (i.e. are you logging into Windows with the same account you used when you saved those settings)?

  • Where do I go to download a preset for CS5 indesign?

    hi, the printer wants this document exported in in design using the Times PDF 1.4 Preset which I am suppose to download to CS5 but I can't find where to do that?

    All the default PDF presets are installed with InDesign (or the Creative Suite or Creative Cloud).
    "Times PDF 1.4 Preset" is not a standard preset. If the printer is expecting you to use it, they must provide it.

  • __is there a way to save a preset for audio mixer settings...??

    I have CS5
    Looking to speed up the process so that I don't have to redo the audio mixer settings for every project - rather just tweak where needed.
    So wanted to setup the audio mixer how I want it - and just have it set as default for all projects or have some automated way to apply the same audio mixer settings to each new project.
    What's the best way to do this my people ?
    Thanks!

    I agree with Jim Simon.  Creating your own template is a good workaround to what would be a good feature.

  • CS3 Presets to CS5?

    Hi,
    Is there anyway to import presets from Media Encoder CS3 to CS5?

    Hi John,
    I should have put a caveat on my original message - presets from older versions of AME will work only if the internal data structure of the format in question hasn't changed.  That's the short way of saying that in every version of AME there's a risk that our software developers will need to change how a format represents its settings internally, and the data in presets from earlier versions won't match up.
    That's my fault for not noting that requirement, and I apologize.
    In the case of QuickTime presets specifically, this is very true. In my simple tests, QuickTime presets from CS3 will not open in CS5.  (Your original post did not specify a format; I didn't do a very good job with my initial tests before replying to your message.)  Here's why:
    Because Premiere Pro and After Effects are now 64-bit applications, and there is no 64-bit version of QuickTime available, the Adobe CS5 applications needed a new method to write QuickTime files.  AME, After Effects, and Premiere Pro now handle all of the QuickTime settings internally, instead of calling on the QuickTime API as was done in CS4 and earlier versions.  Then they call a 32-bit service called Adobe QT 32 Server, which talks to QuickTime and writes the file.
    The fallout of the changes in CS5 have impacted you in two different ways.
    1. The data structure for QuickTime presets is now very, very different.  Presets from earlier versions won't work in CS5.
    2. The appearance and arrangement of the settings for QuickTime is different.  You have noticed this.
    Let's tackle some of the specific changes you've mentioned about the available QuickTime options:
    > For example, the Quicktime DVCPRO-NTSC settings availble in CS3 is not available in CS5.
    Correct, this specific codec doesn't exist in CS5.  Use instead the DV25 NTSC or DV50 NTSC codec.  Probably DV25, unless you have a specific need for DV50.
    > In addition, a number of Options (field orders, etc) are greyed out in AME CS5
    Some codecs, including the DV formats, are implicit to a format that defines certain parameters of the video.  For example, DV NTSC is ALWAYS 720x480, 0.9 or 1.21 PAR, 29.97fps, Lower Field First.  When a codec pre-defines parameters, AME CS5 doesn't allow you to change them.  If you change the codec to one that allows more control, for example None or PNG, you will see these options become available again.
    (As a comparison, choose the DVCPRO HD 1080i60 codec, and you'll see that it locks the parameters to 1280x1080, 1.5 PAR, 29.97fps, Upper Filed First.)
    Earlier versions of AME did not impose this type of restriction for QuickTime because it was using the QuickTime API, and that dictated what settings were possible.  QuickTime is actually kind of lazy about complying with format restrictions.  You could stuff just about any frame rate/frame size/field order/etc. of video into most QuickTime codecs and it would not only accept it, but QuickTime Player could play it back.  But you'd get unpredictable results if you tried to use that QuickTime file with a system that ahderes to strict format compliance.
    =====
    Now, QuickTime aside, I assure you that my previous post wasn't in error.  Some presets from CS3 will work in CS5.  I've tested the MPEG2, H.264, and FLV formats on Windows and verified that they work.  I did see some problems; for example the frame rate for H.264 and FLV wasn't correct when the preset was loaded into CS5.  So if you do transfer a preset from earlier versions to CS5, you should inspect the preset after loading to make sure that it is correct.
    Note that when you save a preset, you are not given the option to choose where the preset is saved.  The file is always saved in the default location.
    CS3: <drive>\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Premiere Pro\3.0\MediaIO\Presets
    CS5: <drive>\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\AME\5.0
    You can copy the preset files to a different location if you want, but simply copying them into the folder for CS5 won't automatically load them into AME CS5.  You need to use the Import Preset function inside AME to add them to your list of presets.
    Also, do not rename the .vpr files from CS3 to .epr.  I don't understand why, but this causes them to fail to load.  But because CS5 only looks for .epr files in the Import dialog, you need to use a little trickery to make it find them.
    Here are the steps to take:
    In AME CS5, select the format you are going to add the preset to.  For example, if you want to add a preset for FLV, don't leave the Format selection on MPEG2.  Change it to FLV or you'll get an error.
    Click the Import Preset button (the folder icon).
    Navigate to the folder where the preset is located.
    In the File Name field, type the name of the preset file, including the .vpr extension.  You could also copy/paste the name, or usually if you just start typing the name then Windows will display a drop-down menu with the list of file names in that folder that match what you've typed.  For example, if the preset file name is "FLV 640x480 30fps.vpr", if you type "FLV 6", you should see a list of files that start with that name.  Click on the file name to load the whole string into the File Name field.
    Click Open.
    The preset will be loaded, and you'll be shown a dialog asking you to name it.  Yes, this is a little bit redundant.
    =====
    I hope that clears up the situation for you.  Please reply with further questions if not.
    To wrap this all up, I need to give you a caveat that is bigger than the one before: the workflow of transferring presets between versions of AME was not explicitly designed to work.
    That is to say that when AME was designed, this workflow was either not considered, or wasn't included due to time or budget constraints.  (I couldn't tell you which since I wasn't working on the AME project when those decisions were made.)  Keep in mind what I posted above about how data structures can change from version to version; that means the ability to transfer presets from version to version would require specific engineering and testing work; it's not a given.
    One reason why the work may not have been considered is that not enough people asked for it.  That's where you can help us.  If this is something you'd like to see in a future release, I encourage you to fill out a feature request for it.
    And all of the above said, Presets is one area of AME that we know needs to be improved, and we are working on improvements for future releases.  But don't let that stop you from filing feature requests if you have ideas about how you'd like AME to work, or for any other change you'd like to see in an Adobe product.

  • Presets in CS5

    I run Photoshop CS5 i windows 7.  When I was in RAW I had a dropdown list of preset actions. These were not made by me but were just in the programme. The dropdown has disappeared. Can I get it back and if so how.

    Have you recently upgraded or changed computer or user account? There are no Camera Raw presets by default, so the ones you had must have been added at some time. You need to add them again, but bear in mind that some of them may not work properly with Process 2010 (the default process in CR6) or Process 2012 (the default process in CR7).
    On my Windows 7 computer, my presets are stored here:

  • Photoshop CS6 file/new/presets/custom sizes-where kept?

    I'm on a Mac running OSX 10.8.3 and lately I've been losing presets when Photoshop CS6 crashes or I have some other unrelated problem. First it was brushes-I lost the palette of brushes I had built over years and had to drag in an old set from a networked computer. Then it was Workspacees; same tedious solution. Now, after I had to reinstall the OS two days ago, I've lost the custom size presets under File/New/Presets/Custom. But it isn't clear where these presets reside in the system: the prefs, the app plugins, or the settings. Where are they stored, and can anyone tell me why all these preferences or presets seem to be more volatile in CS6 than they were previously? Or is this all a fig newton of my imagination?

  • Premiere Pro CS5 -capture settings for canon 30f/24f?

    Latley I have been using a canon xha1 for some simple work projects. I am new to the HDV workflow, and I am very thrown off by the XHA1 formats and how to properly capture them.
    I have not been able to find the proper way to set up a sequence for 30f settings. Knowing that the 30f is not really progressive which settings should I use. (also what would the proper settings be for 24f?)
    PP CS5 seems to have the Canon XF MPEG2 presets. as well as the standard HDV settings. Below is a screen shot of what I assume I should be capturing with.
    Lets say the footage is 30f. Which of the following should I use. Or is it netiher due to the 30f being interlaced. Any help would be grealty appreciated.

    That's not really true.  These formats carry the flags to tell the NLE which frames to drop.  It is progressive.
    I use an HV40 with "f" mode all the time and Premiere reads it correctly as progressive.  Even after dropping a clip on the make a new item icon.

  • CS5 Color Settings Unsynchronised. How do I get them in synch?

    My CS5 Photoshop window for Color Settings states: Unsynchronised. Your Creative Suite applications are not synchronised for consistent color.
    Question: How do I get then synched?
    Chrissto@

    Don't bother, just dismiss that dialog. All "synchronizing" means is that the same preset is applied to each application's color settings. You can do that manually.
    But there's no particular reason to have identical color settings in all applications. Requirements will likely be different and my color settings are deliberately unsynchronized (I wouldn't dream of using ProPhoto RGB in Illustrator or InDesign, just as I'd never have CMYK policies set to "preserve numbers" in Photoshop).

I called Adobe Tech. Support to get advice and direction and they are the ones that told me I should have not problem and thus I uninstalled CS4).
    I didn't have any custom presets...so, I'm just looking to install/regain the standard PDF print presets that should be loaded each time I launch InDesign.

    First of all, this is an English speaking cummunity. If you want to continue in French, visit the French forums and post there. And no need for shouting!!!
    Second, get an education in video editing. If you haven't the faintest idea of what you are doing, you are in for a very long haul, as demonstrated by all your senseless actions. It is utterly useless to try all kind of presets, if you don't even know in what mode you have shot. You could try the File/New/New Sequence from Clip command to get you started. Otherwise an AVCHD 1080i/25 (1440x1080) with standard audio preset should work, based on your info.
    Additionally, set you playback resolution to full. It defaults to 1/2.
