Correct video settings for a Nikon D300s to input into Adobe Premiere Elements 10?

I understand that it is critical when using Adobe Premiere Elements 10 that the video settings of your project match the settings of your camera. I want to upload video from my Nikon D300s DSLR which has the video setting options of 480P (640 x 480), 576P (720 x 576), 720P (1,280 x 720), and 1080i (1,920 x 1,080). I will primarly be making videos either to upload to You Tube, or save on a dvd. Can anyone tell me which would be th right settings for my camera and Premiere?

It depends on which resolution you're shooting your videos in.
It looks like that cam shoots in 1280x720 at 24p. There should be a DSLR project setting for that.
But if the camera shoots in all of the video modes you've listed, you can shoot it in any -- just make sure to select the DSLR project settings that match the video.

Import video from CANON LEGRIA HF R18 into adobe premiere elements

Hallo,
I have a MAC and I don't know how I have to set the project to import videos from my camera.
Thanks

As a first pass at this I would transfer the video from the camera to the computer hard drive and from there import that into Premiere Elements 10 Mac with Premiere Elements 10 Mac Get Media/Files and Folder. Under the circumstances your Premiere Elements 10 will perform as a 32 bit application running in the 32 bit compatibility mode of the Mac 64 bit with the limitations of 32 bit. I am an Elements Windows user, but the principles and suggestions that I am about to make should be applicable to your situation. I have gone off track with any Mac specific details be sure to say so. The 32 bit business means that Premiere Elements 10 Mac will not be able to take advantage of all the 64 bit resources as would be the case if you had Premiere Elements 11 Mac running in a Mac 64 bit operating system.
Your Canon HF-R18 FXP would be highest quality 1920 x 1080 with a bitrate of 17 Mbps (megabits per second). I need to confirm if you are recording interlaced video 1920 x 1080 (50i) or 1920 x 1080 p25 (in the progressive mode). From what I have read your audio is Dolby Digital Stereo.
If 1920 x 1080 (50i, aka 25 interlaced frames per second), then use the Premiere Elements 10 project preset = PAL/AVCHD/Full HD1080i25.
If 1920 x 1080 (25p, 25 progressive frames per second), then use the Premiere Elements 10 project preset = PAL/DSLR/1080p/DSLR 1080p25.
In either circumstance, when you drag the file from the Media area to the Timeline, do you see a colored line over that content on the Timeline? You should not be seeing a colored line over this content if we have the correct project preset selected. But remember that, each time after you edit that video, it is normal for a red line to appear over it. That is the program telling you that you need to render the Timeline content, one way by pressing the Enter key of the computer main keyboard to get the best possible preview. When the rendering is complete, the red line will turn green. Thereafter, only a red/green indicator system (with all its implications) will exist for letting you know if the program thinks that you are seeing the best possible preview. No more non colored line choice, just red (need) and green (not needed). When you are in the no colored line or green situation, pressing the Enter key will just get you playback of the file in the monitor - no rendering available.
See what that looks like on the Timeline at playback there.
Let us start there and be ready for the next phase "How do I want to export that Timeline?" with all the details associated with that phase to get the best results.
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thanks.

How do I import Pinnacle Studio 15 videos into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?

I no longer have Pinnacle Studio after replacing crashed computer. I installed Premier Elements 12, but cannot figure out how to import all of my old videos.
Jim Engles

ATR,
Thanks for your interest and time. Sorry I did not explain myself initially.
The files I was trying to import were saved as Pinnacle Studio “project” files. So they must be .stx, as you say. In Windows Explorer I cannot determine the file extension; all I can see is the project folder name and subfolder names.
Now that I think about it, when I was last working in Pinnacle at least two years ago, I had the option on how to save my files and I saved them as “project.” In fact all of the backed up videos are under an overarching folder named my video projects.
I did find two backed up files with an .avi extension, which did import.
So the best solution would be to find a computer to borrow that has Pinnacle installed and open and save the files to export as .avi. If that doesn’t work, I will try to find a trial version of Pinnacle to use.
Years ago a coworker told me to buy Adobe Premiere instead of Pinnacle. I wish I had listened.
Thanks,
Jim Engles

Importing video into adobe premiere elements11

why cant i import video from my sony handycam dcr-dvd 403, into adobe premiere elements 11, for editing purposes? The software is not even reckonizing that the camers is connected to the computer.

I will await your review of initial post where I suggested ripping VOBs from the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc in Premiere Elements 11 Windows. I still think that is the preferred approach for what your described.
You might be interested in this online article that I came across just now in which someone with your brand and model camera presented the same type of issue.

Adobe premiere elements 12 with diamond vc500 one touch video capture device.

Adobe premiere elements 12 and using Diamond vc500 one touch video capture device.
AVI files will not load into Adobe premiere elements 12.
I bought what I thought were the two best software and capture devices.
I am archiving old VHS tapes and using Diamond vc500 capture software called EZ grabber. I thought the best archiving format would be AVI files. As I just started this project. I am willing to do what is needed.
That even being, going and buy another capture device that being for a VCR to PC using a USB are even a Video card.
EZ grabber software ask you to record in what format. I picked AVI. There is DVD - SVCD - VCD - MPG4. I want to archive then go back and edit. The DVD or SVCD format, is that not the same as mpeg 2?
You and I know the drill. Saving in what long term archive format and that dare thing about video compression and losing quality of the videos. Its all a nightmare.
Once again I am willing to buy another capture device for a VCR that will work with Adobe premiere elements 12.
Help please with long term archiving format and capture device.
Thanks

The answer is B.
Capturing the VHS content to computer (via the Diamond vc500 and USB connection and EZ grabber) to obtain an .avi file on your computer and then trying to import that into Premiere Elements with its Add Media/Files and Folders?
When I do that, the Adobe premiere elements 12 crashes or only loads a 2 mins of video.
The firewire connection device "Canopus" product sounds great. But I really don't want to spend that much on my home videos. My PC does not have a Firewire connection. So add a new card for that and the Canopus product. I could just pay someone to do my VHS tapes.
Diamond vc500 $35
Adobe premiere elements 12 $65
Firewire card $50 plus
Canopus $180
$330 is way too much for simple home VHS videos

How do I edit the video audio in Adobe Premiere Elements 10

I want to edit the video audio, so that I can get rid of some of the sounds and background noises. Also, how do you import Plug-ins into Adobe Premiere Elements 10? I have trial versions of Adobe Audition CC and SmartSound. Thanks in advance for your help!

woody122
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running on? And, very important, what video card/graphics card does your computer use.
If a NVIDIA GeForce card, then that needs to be looked at first because of the serious and known Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue which is described in one of the announcements at the top of this forum.
SmartSound is an feature included with Premiere Elements 10. Why are you looking at any trial version of SmartSound?
As for Adobe Audition CC, I was not aware that this is a plug-in. As far as I know, Adobe Audition CC is an application that Premiere CC can integrate with as a CC application which Premiere Elements is not.
See the following video tutorial
Clean up Premiere Pro audio clips with Audition | Adobe Creative Cloud tutorials
Look at the price tag afterward, probably on subscription rates?
Please check out the Premiere Elements 10 audio effects, especially those related to noise reduction.
Have you looked at the free audio editor named Audacity and its noise reduction opportunities?
Please give more details in support of your Adobe Audition CC being a plug-in if you are confident that it is.
Thanks.

What is the best raw plug-in for a nikon D300s with cs3

What is the best download raw plug-in for a Nikon D300s with cs3. I have used 4.6 but still can't open the raw images from my D300s, Used other cameras such as D300 and D200 the raw images where fine.

Use these tables as a guide.
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
D200 - Camera Raw 3.3 - compatible with CS3+
D300 - Camera Raw 4.3 - compatible with CS3+
D300s - Camera Raw 5.5 - compatible with CS4+
So you cannot open Raw files from the D300s in CS3.
Your choices are either to upgrade or download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert the Raw files to DNGs then open the DNGs in CS3.

Best Video Settings For The iPad.

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know this ? "Best Video Settings For The iPad".
Kindly and in simple terms state the best possible settings to be use when converting videos for the iPad that optimizes the entire screen size/ area without a black borderline around your video. it's rather frustrating to have many technical jargons online without anyone giving real pointers at real values in conversion settings.
Thanks in anticipation.

Kindly and in simple terms state the best possible settings to be use when converting videos for the iPad that optimizes the entire screen size/ area without a black borderline around your video.
It is impossible to answer your question without knowing both the aspect ratio of the source file and your personal preferences for displaying it on a 4:3 iPad screen.
Basically, you have two options here when converting files of one aspect ratio for display on a screen of another aspect. You can distort the original display to "fill" the ipad screen. (E.g., you can make a widescreen movie exactly fill your iPad screen but then people and objects will look tall and skinny.) The other option is to convert at the original aspect ratio and simply use the iPad "zoom" option to force your widescreen movie to fill your 4:3 screen by scaling the height of your movie to fill the screen and allowing the left and right edges of you movie to be cropped from your view. You have no other choices here other than living with the defaulted black areas.

Projects settings for AVCHD MTS files in Adobe Premiere Elements 8

Hello,
I have read several discussions already, about importing AVCHD MTS file in Adobe Elements (version 8), but I'm also confused a littlebit, so I would like to confirm if I'm correct.
FYI, I have a Canon Legria HFR26 camera and am using Adobe Premiere Elements 8 (with the latest updates installed).
According to the specs in the Canon instruction manual:
Videos are recorded in high definition using AVCHD specifications
(MPEG-4/H.264 compression).
Audio compression: Dolby Digital 2ch
The camera supports making video's in different format, but I have done it in the default SP format, which results in a resolution of 1440x1080 (50 fields per second, interlaced).
I have copied the video from the camera to my harddisk, and Windows also mentions the video's as AVCHD of 1440x1080 (Bitrate 7672kbps).
The frame rate is 25 frames/second. I assume this is correct for 50i?
So, when I import my video's into Adobe Elements 8, I select the following projects settings:
PAL, AVCHD, HD 1080i 25
Because the description matches my video files:
- For editing with 1440x1080i AVCHD camcorders.
- 16:9 interlaced HD video at 25 frames per second.
- 48kHz audio.
The video's are imported correctly and I can play them. However, as soon as I drop a video on the timeline, Adobe immediately starts background rendering the video (a red line appears on the timeline).
What I understand from some discussions, is that this shouldn't happen, because the video format doesn't match the project settings. On the other hand, I have also read that for Adobe Elements 8 this is normal behaviour and it always start background rendering AVCHD video's.
Is this expected behaviour or should I chance my projects settings or maybe even convert my video files to a different format?
Thanks,
Michiel

The ability to work natively with AVCHD files was not added until version 10, Michiel. So you'll still have to render while you work in version 8.

Adobe Premiere Elements plugin for fisheye/barrel distortion correction

I want to correct the fisheye/barrel lens distortion in a GoPro MP4 video recording. Can Adobe Premiere Elements do this (I've searched for such a function in my APE 11 without success) or is there a plugin which will do this and which is compatible with APE 11 ?

That is good news, and for $49, sounds like a deal. ProDAD does some nice applications and plug-ins, but I had not heard of that one - learned something new.
I was going to mention Alien Skin (also do some neat plug-ins), as they have/had a similar "lens distortion" module in their lineup. However, I did not see PrE listed as a host application, so held off. Most of their plug-ins work in Photoshop, Premiere Pro and After Effects. We see similar with plug-ins from Red Giant and Boris, where PrE is not a viable host app. Not sure why not, but it must be in the numbers - both user-bases and $, as Boris & RG plug-ins often cost 3x what PrE does.
It's also great that the ProDAD plug-in offers some stabilization - probably a bit of their Mecalli stabilizer is built-in - you get a "twofer!"
Thanks for that info, and happy editing,
Hunt
