Clipnotes error using Premiere Pro CS3

I would like to know if anyone has a solution to this problem:
When trying to use Clip notes I get an error: Export Error - Writer not found.
I am using Windows Vista and Windows media not Quick Time.
This is to create the clip notes in PDF.
Your help will be much appreciated.

Sorry. It was worth a shot. As a matter of interest, can you successfully export clip notes using any codec?
Cheers
Eddie

Using Premiere Pro CS3 When exporting as flash file poor picture quality

I'm using Premiere Pro CS3. I shoot green screen in HDV and work in 1440 x 1080. I have been capturing files in Premiere and sending them to Serious Magic Ulta 2. I use this program for keying and adding virtual backgrounds. I save these files as avi. with a resolution of 1440 X 1080. I then bring them back into Premiere Pro for final edit. When I export these video's encoded as mpeg2 theyplay very clear. I am now trying to export as flv. with alpha channel background and the resolution is poor. I working on the transparent background with walk on spokespersons that overlay the HTML page. When In try to play them on my computer the adobe media player is what comes up. I have downloaded flash player but it doesn't select it to play the video. I'm running windows Vista Business platform. What am I doing wrong.

Thanks for the reply.
The capture and editing have already been done in 1440 X 1080. Should I use this resolution rather than trying to bump it up to 1920 X 1080.
Thanks

Subject: Using Premiere Pro CS3 When exporting as flash file poor picture quality
Computer playback generally prefers square pixels. Make sure to set your output resolution to 1920 x 1080 using a Pixel Aspect Ratio (PAR) of 1.0 or Square.
See if that helps.

Error in Premiere Pro CS3.

Whenever I had a problem and i posted it here, i always got helped by you guys, so first of all, i want to thank those who helped me out there, and wanted you to know that i really appreciate that help.
Here is probably my last issue with Premiere Pro CS3.
The problem:
From time to time, i get an error. A message saying: " sorry a serious error has occurred that requires adobe premiere pro to shut down"
It saves the current project, and when i start premiere over, it loads it from there. It usually happens when:
I ' activate ' an effect, example: I change the opacity to 0 ( typing it with the keyboard as a percentage ) and press enter. Right when i press enter, it pops up. ( it happens with any kind of effect, just from time to time, when i ' activate ' it)
When i minimize an audio file by dragging it to the left or the right, it happens when i release the right mouse button. These are just examples. The issue is that when i make a change, this error repeats.
I'd love to hear what the issue may be.
Appreciate any kind of help.

Can you give us the specs. of one of the typical Projects, and their Assets, where you see this happening?
Next, can you give us the specs. of your computer, in as much detail, as is possible?
Can you also list the programs/processes, that load at boot up? A screen-cap, or report from Process Explorer will tell us a lot.
Also, before beginning an editing session, you might want to look into this ARTICLE. If you have Win7, be sure to look down-thread for the link to Black Viper's Web site for tuning that OS.
This ARTICLE might be useful for telling you what is happening with your system and your programs, when you get the error and crash.
Good luck,

MPEG4 in, MPEG4 out: why getting bad quality using Premiere Pro CS3?

I have to edit a great number of MPEG4 footage (H.264, 720p, 29.97 fps), created with a Samsung NV24HD camera. They have a good quality regarding sharpness, contrast, color. I want the final movies as MPEG4 files, in the same format as the sources.
When I export an edited movie using the Adobe Media Encoder of Premiere Pro CS3, the quality is disappointing. A lot of details are lost and the contrast is less than the original footages. Further, I see that the size of the movies are reduced with about 30%.
I use the H.264 preset ‘HDTV 720p 23.976 High Quality’, but with the frame rate changed to 29.97 fps. Other settings are default.
My questions are:
1) What's wrong here?
2) Is the method using the Adobe Media Encoder of Premiere Pro CS3 the right one to do this job?
3) Do I use the correct settings?
Any help is appreciated.

Impossible to use Premiere pro CS3...?

Hello, I am new to this forum and also a new owner of Premiere Pro (CS3-windows Vista 32bits)
My problem? After importing my HDV films with PPro, video and audio have huge gaps up to 15 sec in any of the windows of PPro!!! The imported sequence are OK in any video "reader" as VLC... but not in PPro.
Could it be a bug of PPro with timelines "breaks"? Opened in Windows Movie Maker, audio and video match perfectly for these same sequences (sorry for the english, I am french)
I am a bit horrified as I bought Premiere, confident on the quality of Adobe softwares and in the impossibility of testing with the testing version as HDV is deactivated in it!!!!!
Please, could you make me more confident, I am so afraid!
Thank you.
NOTE: I had my hard drive formated just before installing Premiere pro... !!

Some news: the problem of synchro may be of more than 3 minutes!!
Even on another computer with windows XP, the problem is the same: PPro unable to work correctly and files correct in any other software...
Please, does anyone can help me? Thank you.

Error Message Premiere Pro CS3 running short of system memory; then closes

Lately Premiere CS3 is giving me the error message "running very low on system memory, save project and proceed with caution" and then it frequently closes on me unexpectedly. Hints?

If you are getting a "real" error, then the first thing that I would recommend is to study your programs and Processes in Task Manager. Look closely at the Processes tab. What is loaded and running? A screen-cap of the Processes list might help people to spot many that are totally unnecessary and can safely be removed from the boot files via MSCONFIG.
Next, when you're going to edit, Exit from ALL anti-virus, spyware blockers and pop-up blockers. Obviously, you will NOT want to be surfing the 'Net, once you do that. If you are editing, you will not be using other programs, except as required for actually editing - might be Photoshop, Encore, Illustrator, but no e-mail, messaging, iTunes, etc.. Next, use a program, like EndItAll2, to close down all unnecessary programs and Processes. It used to be freeware, but is now shareware. When installed, it surveys all running Processes and builds a database of the ones that it believes are unnecessary. It's really good at this, but you can tweak it easily, should it overlook one, or included one, that is really necessary. The reason that I Exit from things like AV and spyware detectors, is that by design, they will "lie" to programs like EndItAll2 and say that they ARE necessary. That is the way they works against Trojans, etc., that will try to close these to duck detection. There are other such programs, and many are freeware. I just use this one on every machine. Luckily, I got copies, when it was freeware, but would gladly pay for the shareware version, since it's so very good.
Now, your system is clean, lean and mean. You have rid it of some programs and Processes on a semi-permanent basis with MSCONFIG and then closed out of others. Last, on a session basis, you have eliminated many more.
One more step that can make a world of difference: check your Windows' Virtual Memory settings. Study the location of the Page File and also the management configuration. I like a static Page File, off of my C:\ and not on my media file HDD. I set to 2.5x my physical RAM. Others will locate this file elsewhere. It might take a bit of experimentation to find what is best for you.
Last, more HDD's, properly used, of adequate speed and size, will benefit you. Always defrag all HDD's on a regular basis. Much gets written to, read from, and often deleted during editing. This can fragment a HDD in a hurry. See the articles that are linked HERE. There is a wealth of info on setting up one's physical HDD's, plus other tips.
Now, you are ready to edit efficiently and smoothly, provided that you have good Assets, that PrPro likes. Still, as has been mentioned, there is a false error, and it often pops up with Titler.
Good luck,
Hunt

Trying to relink video clips and getting "import reporting a generic error" using Premiere Pro CC 2014 on a Mac

Capture error premiere pro cs3

I've got an ongoing capture error in premiere pro cs3 (on Mac OSX).
At around the 9 minute mark of capturing, it stops and says 'Unknown recorder error'. The footage is still captured if I stop it straight away but lost if I leave it for a while. I'm using canon hv30 camera to capture dv footage (not hdv) and can't seem to solve it. Any suggestions?

Try a different capture utility. VideoHelp.com will list plenty of free alternatives. If they stumble as well, there ie likely something wrong with the tape at that spot.

Premiere Pro CS3 capture error after Aug 09 vista update

im using premiere pro cs3 on two PC's running vista. after the last vista update last week, i can no longer import HDV or DV from my HV30. both PC's detect the camera and ask to import into windows movie maker or other programs, but when i open premiere pro cs3 and click on capture, both PC's refuse to acknowledge that a camerat attached. is anyone else having this error? if so, have anyone found a soultion to this error?

Strange as it might sound, I'd also install the latest audio and video drivers. OS updates can kill these in a heartbeat. Test afterwards.
It sounds like Vista is seeing the camera OK, but I'd check just a bit deeper. Go to Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager (or whatever Vista might call it?), and with your camera attached and turned on, navigate to it. Open up the window for that device and check every panel. Any warnings, or errors anywhere?
In PrPro, check all of the Capture Preferences. Anything amiss there? Anything changed, since the update?
As a test, create a current Restore Point (do not trust that Vista has done this for you - do it manually to be sure), and then choose a Restore Point from before the Update (I'd actually go back several, if possilbe). Use that and test again. Does PrPro now see the camera and does it Capture as before? If the earlier examinations do not point up something, and this test shows that PrPro CAN Capture, you have at least narrowed it down to the Vista update.
Good luck,

Premiere Pro CS3 Encoding Error

I'm supporting an end user who has been using Premiere Pro CS3 for years to develop and encode videos on their computer.
Recently, they have been experiencing an issue with one particular project they're been attempting to encode. The project is nothing out of the ordinary, various video and audio files, a little bit of text. They're trying to encode the project down to an MPEG2 format for burning to a DVD.
The problem occurs about 20%-30% through the second pass of rendering. Premiere Pro will give an application error, stating that memory referenced cannot be "written". The program then shuts down and the attached Event Viewer log is written. I've done research, but haven't found any items relating to these errors.
The only major change that I know of on his computer was that Adobe After Effects was installed recently. I don't know the version level of After Effects installed.
Premiere is up-to-date. The user demonstrated the ability to encode other projects, both larger and smaller, without issue. All of the files been used as part of the problem project have been used in the past without issue. I'm having the user deconstruct their project to try to identify any layers or files that may be causing the problem. Rather than go through that tedious tasks, I'm hoping someone has an idea of what's going on.

If the project have captured video, this problem can be caused by defective capture. Frames of captured video can have compression problems even not having any apparent defect when they are showed. Since some compressions are inter frames, the compression can have defects during the capture. the funny is, the appearance of those frames can look like normal (since human eye cant see and scan those thousands/millions of pixels one-by-one and detect which one is defective).When you are about to encoding it, or "trancode" it, the change from a defective compressions to a mpg2 DVD for example make the program crash.
If thats the case, u can check in which frame Prem crashes, get the clip to AE and re-export it to a completely diferent format and compression, them replace the Premiere clip by the new one.

I Reinstalled Premiere Pro CS3, loaded a project I edited using CS3, and NOW I get jagged edges!

Hey everyone. I was using Premiere Pro CS3 to edit some footage I shot with my HPX170 in 1080i 24p Advanced. The P2 footage looked great in Premiere CS3. I upgraded to Premiere CS5, imported the same exact project into CS5 using the same 1080i 24p Advanced setting, and I got jagged stair stepping edges on the objects that were in sharp focus in my footage. Okay, I thought, I'll just reinstall Premiere Pro CS3 and continue editing the footage in CS3 since it looked normal in CS3 with no jagged edges. But, to my surprise, I'M GETTING THE SAME EXACT THING NOW IN PREMIERE PRO CS3!!!! What in the heck is up with that? How can the footage look normal when I imported and editied it before in CS3 and NOW I get jagged stair stepping edges?!!!! I even tried importing a fresh clip from the footage and that clip still has the jagged stair stepping edges. This makes no sense whatsoever! Does anyone know what's going on with this? It seems like an interlace artifact problem BUT, if that's the case, why didn't it do this the first time in Premiere Pro CS3? And trust me, I would have noticed right away if it did!

Hey Shooternz. Which exact playback settings are you asking about? I set the one of the playback settings to "Highest Quality" instead of "Automatic" and nothing changed. I unchecked 24p Pulldown in the "Interpret Footage" section and nothing changed (I don't even remember "24p Pulldown" being in the Interpret Footage section the first time I installed CS3, which is strange. Was that added in an update?). I tried different sizes like HD 1.5, HD 16:9, etc. in the Interpret Footage section and the jaggies are still there. Nothing seems to work. ??? This is weird because they weren't there the first time I edited the footage in CS3 when I installed CS3 the first time. One thing I noticed is, when I installed CS3 the second time and loaded the project, as the project was loading, I got a message that said something like "These project settings cannot be loaded. We will now switch to Desktop Mode." Would that have something to do with it you think?

Premiere Pro CS3 crashing on export

I have been using Premiere Pro CS3 for a while and I assure you I have NEVER touched any export settings, but now it is suddenly crashing on export.
There is no error message or anything, the program just turns off.
A friend suggested I change the settings to uncompressed.
The program was set to "Microsoft AVI" by default, so I changed it to "Uncompressed Microsoft AVI". Now it exports without crashing, but if I play the video in Quicktime, there is no video or sound, and if I play it in media player, there is sound, but no video.
What's going on here?

"Premiere Pro CS3" is missing some codecs!

Hi!
First of all, thanks for stoping by and read my post.
It's me first time ever using Premiere Pro CS3. I tried to some basic video editing on it, but I cannot hear any sound coming out of my laptop speakers; when i import the video clips. Even tho, I can hear them with "Windows Media Player". So, I investigated a bit and I did some of the things adviced by Adobe's knowledgebase thing.
And, I came up with a paper saying to download "MediaInfo" and "GSpot" to find out the codecs of the "mpg" files. Here is a report i made with the information given by those programs:

As you can see "Premiere Pro CS3" is missing some codecs, so my question is where can I download those?
I forgot to tell you, that I use a HP laptop Dual core Intel processor with Win Vista Home 2 GB of RAM and 160 GB of HD
Thanks in advance
P.S. I am attaching the Diagdx.txt, even tho I don't think has to necesary
P.S. 2. I just saw another post similar to this one, but it doesn't tell you how to make "Premiere Pro" get the audio to work in my clips and finished project

Most good file converters can handle Video and Audio. If you are having issues with the Audio, both Audition and SoundBooth can convert to almost anything and any sample rate and bit depth.
Here's a LINK to the PrPro Wiki. There are links to various aspects of conversion there.
Now, remember that when working FROM MPEG-2 and also AC3, the files are compressed to begin with. Quality will suffer, and there is only one way around that - go back to the original source files. If not possible, then you have to determine if the quality has suffered too much.
Good luck,

How to bring an Avid project into Premiere Pro CS3?

My client has an old Avid project that needs to be re-edited. I'm using Premiere Pro CS3. Can easily purchase any necessary conversion software (NOT going to buy Media Composer :P). Is there any way to 'easily' import it?
I'm familiar with the Automatic Duck software suite, but they don't seem to have an option for conversion to PPro. What about converting from Avid to After Effects, and then somehow importing the After Effects into PPro?
I'm extremely new to EDLs and very hesitant to use them :). Any advice?

I've had some degree of success going from Avid to PPro through the use of AAF (Advanced Authoring Format). If the project is really complex, the transfer may not work that well, but I was surprised to see just how much transferred cleanly. Check the Avid documentation for exporting a project as an AAF, and the PPro documentation for importing.
One thing to note is that you will have to recapture the media from the original source tapes, as PPro will not work with media files created during capture on an Avid system.

Premiere Pro CS3 - Preset & Media File Questions

Volunteered to create a high school football highlight video using Premiere Pro CS3 on a Mac. The video will be shown in a banquet hall using a NEC projector attached to the ceiling. The hall owner doesn't have any info on the projector, so I don't know its native resolution or any other specs. The screen is standard size.
I'm being given a potpourri of media:
1) The team's game DVDs shot from the press box. MPEG Streamclip shows the VOBs have these properties: 720 × 480, 4:3, 29.97 fps, 9.30 Mbps, upper field first - 128 AC3 2/0, 48 kHz, 256 kbps. Right or wrong, I converted the VOBs to dv files for import into PP with these properties: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, 720 × 480, 4:3, 29.97 fps, 28.77 Mbps - DV stereo, 48 kHz, 28.77 Mbps.
2) Field level video taken with a Canon HV30 (HD, wide screen). The files I've been given are: Apple Intermediate Codec, 960 × 540, 29.97 fps, 30.09 Mbps - 16-bit Big Endian stereo, 48 kHz, 1.54 Mbps. I could ask to have these files recaptured as SD files.
3) Many side line photos (TIFFs) taken with a Canon 30D.
After editing the project, I was planning on exporting the final video/audio as a mov file to be played from my lap top hard drive rather than from a DVD. Not sure about the export settings to do this for best quality.
But first, which PP preset should I use for this project, or should I use custom settings? If so, what should they be?
Have I converted the VOBs to the proper format?
Should I recapture the HV30 footage or convert it to another format?
I have the photos in Lightroom and can export them as TIFFs, JPEGs, PSDs or DNGs and can resize them down if necessary. Any suggestions?
Finally, I was thinking of converting the background music from mp3s to aif files at 48 kHz, 16-bit to be consistent across the different audio files. Any suggestions with the audio?
Any thoughts or suggestions on these issues would be most appreciated. If the answers to these questions hinge on the projector type, I may have to wing it....or buy my own projector. Ouch.
Sorry for the length of this post.

I recommend setting up a 720x480 4:3 project. At the very least, have
them recapture the #2 video files as widescreen SD. (I'll refrain from
making any comments about the usefulness of AIC at half-HD) The
recaptured widescreen SD files will end up letterboxed in your 4:3
timeline. Your other choice would be to set up a 720x480 16:9 project,
but that would end up pillarboxing the 4:3 footage. Your choice.
I think you did a fine job converting the VOBs.
Resize the images in Photoshop. Get them as close to 720x480 as you
can, adjusting that upward to account for any panning and zooming that
you might want to do. But don't increase the size any more than you
have to. You definitely want to avoid working with huge frame-size
images in Pr.
48k 16-bit stereo audio should work just fine.
You should find out the native resolution of the projector, and whether
or not it has an internal scaler.
