Create Slideshow Using Premiere CS3 Mac

I would like to create a slideshow that can be played back full screen on a computer or burned and played back on a DVD. I have no problem creating the show in Premiere, adding audio etc. These are high quality Photoshop psd files. When I export to Encore and create a DVD the images are out of focus.
My questions are:
1) What should the image size, resolution, pixel aspect ration be?
2) What should my project settings be?
3) Can I change them in an existing project if they are wrong?
4) What should my settings be when I export to Encore?
I am trying to get this done by Christmas and I am running out of time! If you can help I will see that you are put on Santa's nice list! :)

640x480 with 1.0 PAR for NTSC
For NTSC use NTSC DV
No. Create a new project with the correct settings and import the old project into it.
For NTSC use the NTSC preset.

In Premiere CS5, I opened an old project I had edited using Premiere CS3 and now its all pixelated!

Hi everyone. I just got Premiere Pro CS5 and started the program and opened up an old project I had edited using Premiere Pro CS3. Premiere Pro CS5 said it had to convert the project for editing in CS5. I clicked "okay" and the project opened up in CS5. Now, when I play the project on the timeline, everything has some pixelation! The footage was nice and sharp without any artifacts when I edited in Premiere Pro CS3. How do I get rid of this pixelation in CS5 so the footage looks like it is supposed to?! Thanks.

Well, there's really no rationale for the project conversion to somehow drastically alter the appearance of footage, particularly something like DVCPROHD. Adobe changed the way its software handles pixel aspect ratios between CS3 and CS4, but that affects SD footage, not HD footage. There may be some degree of weirdness since in CS3, you had a project that was set to a specific format/frame rate/codec/whatever, whereas in CS4 and later the project is just a container for sequences of any and all types.
Instead of opening the original project and going through the conversion, try creating a new project and importing the old project as if it were any other media file. Premiere will reconstruct the old project within the new one; this probably is not going to have any change, but it's worth a shot.
Can you describe (or better, show) the pixelation you're referring to? It's hard to visualize without, well, a visual, and that might help better pinpoint the issue. Also, is the pixelation only during playback, or is while the clip is paused in the sequence, as well?

Cannot create slideshow in Premiere Elements 8

I just installed and am trying to use Premiere Elements 8. I have been racking my brain for the last two hours trying to figure out how to create a slide show. I do not have a create button anywhere. I jumped from Elements 1.0 to 8. I am ready to return 8 and go back to 1 if I cannot figure this out.
Where do I find the slideshow dialog box?
Can someone please help?????
Thanks.

Oh come on, Eric! You're not really going to return the program just because you couldn't figure out how to use it, are you?
I"m just teasing you. The program can be a bit intimidating at first. That's why I spend most of my day showing people how to use it.
Actually, there are at least four ways to build a slideshow in Premiere Elements. I show you how to do them all in my book, "The Muvipix.com Guide to Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements 8," if you're interested.It's available on Amazon.com and from the Muvipix store.
I don know specifically what kind of slideshow you're trying to create, so I can't give you specific instructions.
But first, before you bring any photos into Premiere Elements, be sure to resize them to 1000x750 pixels, per the FAQs to the right of this forum.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/431851?tstart=0
Then use Get Media/From Files and Folders to get the photos into your Project panel (also under the Organize tab.)
Once you've got all of your photos gathered in your Project media panel, select them all and right-click -- and select Create Slideshow.
As I say, there are a number of other ways to do it, but this is the easiest. There is also an option for creating a slideshow in Themes and there's a slideshow creator built into the Organizer.
But that should get you started.
Meantime, why not check out my free Basic Training with Premiere Elements tutorials on the Muvipix site?

How to maximize the capacity of media disk using Premiere CS3?

We are using Premiere Pro CS3 to make DVD for one of our conference. When we export the DVD files to Encore to burn on disc we noticed that more than 1 GB space on the disk is not being used. The program is about 4.4. GB big. As a result the image quality is not as good as I thought it would be. Any way to maximize the use of disc space so that Encore will fill up all available space? We are using VBR already.
Thank you.

For the vast majority of my DVD-Video Projects, I Export to DV-AVI Type II files, and Import those into Encore, allowing for it to set the Transcode setting via its Automatic mode. This has worked very well, with but a few exceptions. In the case of high-motion, especially across the lens axis, I have done my bit budgeting for those Sequences and Exporting to DVD-compliant MPEG-2's. For the rest, that DV-AVI and Encore's Automatic have given me great results, using all the disc real estate, that it can. Even when squeezing more that 120 mins. of footage onto a DVD-5, Encore has done a great job for me.
Good luck, and maybe Export as a DV-AVI Type II (I use elemental/elementary streams with Video-only in one file, and then Audio-only in the other), and let Encore do the Automatic "thing." Test and observe carefuly.

Does Pages alleviate the problem of bloated pdf files created when using Word for Mac?

I am finishing up my PhD dissertation and need to convert it to a .pdf file to be able to send it via email, however, as many are probably aware, when making pdfs directly from Word for Mac the pdf files are enourmous! If I move the document over to a Windows machine, the pdf is managable, but with all the little formatting details of a thesis, it screws up enough that it will be torture to have to fix it. I will glady get Pages (I was going to switch after my defense anyway) if I can make a pdf that is not 140 MB (my thesis .docx file is a little over 500MB)!

In Pages you have the option to export to Pdf and can choose between good, better and best versions. Beware though it is often the images that will lose in resolution. This is what the Pages User Guide says:
If you’re exporting to PDF, you must choose an image quality (a higher image quality results in a larger PDF file):
Best: Image resolutions are not scaled down.
Better: Images are downsampled to 150 dpi. Images without transparency (alpha
channel) are JPEG-compressed by 0.7.
Good: Images are downsampled to 72 dpi. Images without transparency (alpha channel) are JPEG-compressed by 0.9.

Error compiling movie: out of memory !!! Premiere CS3

Hey every1 --- desperate need of some guidance here. I've been all over the internet and these boards --- have seen this come up with a lot of people but no real solid answers that I'd seen or that have helped.
First off, my comp is an imac 3.06 Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4GB memory. (just bought the computer last year)
I'm shooting with a canon 7d in HD (1920 x 1080p) and I'm editing using Premiere CS3. I've noticed that editing has become very difficult since I started using HD; playback is very choppy and the 'quality settings' in the preview monitor are a joke and do absolutely nothing whether it's on draft or automatic.
Anyway, despite the choppiness and slow editing, I was able to get a 3 min clip completed. These are my export settings:
Export > Movie
H.264
960 x 540
23.976 fps
Square pixels,
100% quality,
recompress: unchecked.
Once exported (I was able to export smaller timelines previously--- say, 50 secs of footage or so) the files look AMAZING and from there I use them for online video via vimeo -- stuff looks really awesome.
Anyway, recently I'm getting: 'Error compiling movie. Out of Memory. Change optimization preferences to memory', etc. etc. Well, I did as it asked and that did absolutely nothing.
So, I decided to open up my activity monitor and watch what's going on with my memory while premiere is exporting. I also closed ALL unused applications. System runs at about 2.16gb free memory before I start exporting. Memory seems stable during export UNTIL around the 50% exporting mark, and then its starts climbing like crazy and my memory just gets eaten up --- finally resulting in a crash at about 70% render.
I really don't know what else to do. Does my computer not have the power to export 3 min of HD footage??? This seems surprising to me ... I don't know what else to try.
Thanks for any help !!!

Hi Mark,
Hope you are having a wonderful day.
Sorry to hear that you are having such a hard time. Although I did not specifically get the out of memory error, I can only be convinced that that is the problem.
Although I am not a computer whiz, I have learned my share of things. I have been troubleshooting a video all this week (really, a couple of months), but I had to put it aside and come back to it.
I tend to be talkative; so I will get back on topic or at least try to stay on topic, so bare with me. Smile....
Here is what I have learned and maybe it will help you with yours if you have not found a solution already.
Based on your hard drive specs and ram, I was thinking the same thing e.g. hard to believe that you are not able to render 3 minutes of video in HD. I primarily work in HD/1080p.
The place where we are similar is that I eventually could get the video to render by reducing the workspace that is rendered piece by piece until I was able to render the entire file. When I tried to encode the video, I kept getting error compiling messages. I tried different codecs, deleting xmpses, not rendering xmpses, etc. I could not figure out the keyframe trick so I just put in a black video from after effects. By the way, all of my videos intro the same and no problems with the other videos fading from black to a still photo.
Here is the problem from what I could gather.
Simply, out of memory. I was rendering and trying to encode a 45 minute video with after effects compositions and the dynamic linking kept timing out once the file reached a certain size. There were no other true fancy effects. I do alot on the green screen and just use after effects to make a white background. Smaller videos, rendering has been slow, but doable. This massive video would never compile. I won't bore you with my system specs, but know that similar to your situation, the system in theory should have been adequate.
Work around...
I ended up exporting the video as 3 separate 15 minute video clips. I could not get them to encode as .wmv files so I encoded them as .mp4 files. By the way, I still encoded in HD.
Here is the kool stuff.
After what seems like forever, I found a converter that could convert .mp4 to .wmv and rejoin the files to play as one large file with the same quality as my source file and no audio synching issues. By the way, I do not work for this company. I just found this encoder at 4 o'clock this morning after trying all of these other converters that were straight garbage or were free to try and not really free if you wanted quality. By the way, the conversion tool is not only user friendly, but free which is awesome.
The name of the software is Media Cope. Just visit www.mediacope.com.... Be sure to send the owner an e-mail to thank him and let him know that Mark sent you. I just sent him an e-mail earlier to let him know that I was going to post on Adobe what a wonderful software he created. I just needed something free, quick, easy, and user-friendly.
Whoops... got off topic....
I'll do a summary at the end for my recommendation to you.
Here are some other tidbits that I learned as well that may save you some time.
When editing this is what I do now...
1) I use CCleaner from www.piriform.com to quickly clean my system especially temporary files before I start editing and if I am switching from project to project.
2) In all of my troubleshooting this week, I found a kool little software call Smart Close. (Just google to find this one.) It closes all of your non-critical background files in order to maximize system resources. (When I am done editing, I just reboot and all of my background programs start up again. You do not have to do it that way, that's just how I do it. The nice thing is that it is a wizard interface; so you do not have to try to figure out if a process in the background is critical or non-critical.)
3) Depending on my mood and if I did not forget, smile.... I change the priority to high for the adobe products in the task manager.
More things that I learned...
1) We are not able to change the temp file for how Adobe encodes. My logic was if I could change the encoding to a hard drive that was simply empty so Adobe can render there, then I would be good. Wrong.... Adobe does not allow you to change the temp location. (Note: This is what I discovered in the different forums; so encoding to an external hard drive is not the best move. Read more to se why.)
2) It is best to have your scratch disks as your internal disk. If you have multiple internal disks, then you shoud check some other forums for the best way to set up your scratch disks. When I was just starting out, I bought an external hard drive enclosure with the thought that I would work primarily off of those external drives with the option of doing some RAID work. Bad idea... Even the simplest of tasks took forever. It was best to work off of the internal drive. By the way, I still use the enclosure hard drives for backups in order to allow me to free up some space on the primary hard drive. When rendering, it is truely a use of the RAM and the hard drive space in the editing process.
I'll leave you with this...
I take back what I said earlier, you do need a new computer with more RAM. If you can get 16 GB, great. The primary reason is that if you are editing in Premiere and if you do anything with dynamic linking into your after effects, it will cause your ram to climb as the file gets larger. Of course, be sure to get the largest hard drive possible as an internal drive, the maximum on processor speed, 64 bit operating system, etc.
I know you are like by now, Mark, what is the point of all of your gibberish... Really, it was to share with you and others on some really kool work arounds.
My recommendation for you are as follows.
1) You have already proven that you can render and encode 50 second clips and you are very happy with those clips, so create separate smaller clips for this particular project.
2) Once you have the final clips outputted, then use Media Cope to rejoin the files as one large file and you are done.
(Note: The one thing that I did notice is that there is a small break right between where the files are merged. The nice thing is that as a video editor/film maker, you will be the only person likely to notice it because you know where the breaks are. The other nice thing is that the untrained eye will not notice it and if you had to submit your work to a television station especially on DVD, the video system should recognize the file as one large file and play all the way through. Note: For the last sentence, I said 'should play all the way through' as I have not had a chance to check this one yet as I just finished this project today and still have to turn in all of my videos. I still have some more videos to merge.)
By the way, the only specs that I will share are that I work on a PC and it has 8 GB of ram.
The summary of the summary is that sometimes an error compiling message could simply be that your system does not have resources to render and the encode that large of a file. At least that is what I learned this week or at least my specific situation. The confirmation is that I just finished shooting a documentary which was one hour and some change and was able to render and encode to .wmv with no problems. Of course, I was not using after effects for this particular project.
In either case, hope all the information helps you with your project.
Have a wonderful day and happy holidays everyone.

Premiere CS3 Stops when loading that 1 project !

Dear friends !
I have Vista 64
I use Premiere CS3
And recently upgraded my video card
I was working on a music video about 5 mins long , I added all effects , transition and etc, I have total of only 4 layers plus 1 audio.
Everything went smooth and I exported it to movie and got my final AVI, but suddenly I remembered that I had to add a 20 seconds clip
at the end, so I reopened the project and Premiere CS3 crashes !!
But if I open any other project, then it works fine.
So, I took my finished AVI (the one that I made earlier) to Encore CS3 and Encore Stopped as well ...WTH.
Then I Used my AVI to create a new project and added that 20 sec at the end of it, then "Export to Movie" again
result was fine , then I used the same project to "Export to Encore" Encore crashed ...WTH.
when I play that AVI file that I made earlier with Windown Media player, then it works fine.
Any Ideas !!

Glad that you got your Project finished.
As for what can freeze PrPro, well lots of things. These can be issues with the system, the Project, the Assets, and a few more.
Not sure what went wrong with your FLV to AVI conversion, but some converters play fast and loose with their export.
One thought for next time, or maybe to resurrect this Project is the Moyea FLV Importer plug-in for PrPro. It will work with PrPro 2.0, and I believe with CS3 too, though will not work with any flavor of CS4. For me, this plug-in works perfectly with FLV material, and all conversions are internal, and have yet to cause any issues. I use it with PrPro 2.0.
Good luck,
Hunt

Premiere Cs3 Importing mp4 at incorrect framerates, how do I fix this?

I'm using Open Broadcast Software to record mp4 videos. I'm using Premiere Cs3 to edit those videos.
I had made a few changes to the settings in OBS to make streaming to twitch better, but after reverting my settings to record rather than stream I'm running into a problem. When I import mp4 videos I made after this point, Premiere interprets the footage as if it was shot at 1,000 fps instead of the 60fps I shot it at. I know I can reinterpret the footage at 60 fps but this causes problems, like dropping the audio and looping/distorting random frames.
I wasn't having this problem before. I'm a bit of a novice, and this is all way over my head.

MP4 is a wrapper, what is inside YOUR wrapper - Exactly what is INSIDE the video you are editing?

Premiere CS3 vs After Effect CS3 !

Ok friends hopping someone gives a detailed or a brief feedback on this !
I used to use Sony Vegas, but later on i discovered that Adobe Premiere CS3 was much better software, so i started to use Premiere CS3 few month ago and so far have been very very happy with the Chroma , garbage remover and few more ...
i also installed Adobe After Effect CS3, but my question for you is how do you compare AE with Premiere ! I noticed plug in manufactures mostly make plug ins for AE, at the same time there are many plug ins for Premiere as well , but not as many as i can find for AE.
for example RedGiant makes plug ins for AE and they also have 60% for Premiere ..
please give me your brief or detailed idea about why would you use AE or why would you use Premiere !
So far i have using Premiere for evertyhing (Adding fx and etc)

As Shooterz says, "Have a play" - meaning, you are going to have to use each program to see for yourself how they differ.
So, for example, do this tutorial for premiere (or any other):
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/premiere/articles/preppictinpict.html
And do this for After Effects.
http://www.toolfarm.com/tutorials/gleam1.html
I've picked one for each that shows its most relevant strengths - video for Premiere and motion graphics for AE.

Premiere CS3 Render Size

So I've been using Premiere CS3, and I've been rendering videos of gaming footage just fine (1280 x 720, quicktime, h.264, 144,000 bit rate, square pixels). It's been working just fine, to where I would render an 8 minute video, and it would be about 1-1.5 gb. Now when I render a video that size, it's nearly 4 gb. Any thoughts as to why the sudden jump in file size? Nothing has changed with my settings, and I use dxtory to capture footage, and nothing has change there either. Just don't understand...any feedback would be appreciated...

Thanks for your reply Jim. This makes sense, but I'm not sure why the file size is jumping on me when I've been using the same settings and getting smaller results. For example, just the other day, I rendered a 10 minute video with the same settings and it came out to about 1.5 gb. The 8 minute video I mentioned above rendered at 4 gb.
Funny thing is, I rendered some videos last night and they came out at the normal file size they always were. Any idea what could have caused this spike in file size?

Can't get Samson Mic (C01U0) to work with Premiere 12 (Mac)

As always, strictly an Elements Windows person here.
In the Premiere Elements Windows world USB microphone are rarely if ever supported. What type of microphone is your
Samson C01U? A Google search seems to say that it is the USB type.
That may or may not be the case in the Mac experience.
Also, in your Premiere Elements 12 Mac system, do you have Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware with its ASIO tab under which are Input and Output tab/settings or the counterpart of those settings in Mac?
The forum moderator Steve Grisetti used Premiere Elements Mac so perhaps he can steer us in the right direction on finding the core of your Premiere Elements Mac audio issue.
Is this a "it worked before but not now" or "it never worked before"?
More later.

How do I create a slideshow in PSE 8.0 and share it on my website using Premiere elements 7.0. I

I have created a slideshow in PSE 8.0 but how do I get it into Premiere Elements 7 to create a video I want to show in my website? Do I have to buy Premiere Elements 8.0 surely ther must be a way to pass files?

Adobe is making it difficult for people who have Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere Elements 7.
If you also have Photoshop Elements 7, I suggest that in the future you consider making your slideshows in Photoshop Elements 7 because it of course does support transfer to Premiere Elements 7. Or you can make the entire slideshow in Premiere Elements 7.
The only option that I can identify for making a file of your PSE 8 slideshow is to do a WMV file from the PSE 8 slideshow output command.
This approach has the disadvantage of doing a compression in PSE to make the WMV file and then doing another compression in Premiere Elements 7 for whatever format you will use to upload to your website.

Who uses Dreamweaver CS3 on Mac OS X?

Howdy,
I'm curious to know how many of you here use Dreamweaver CS3
on the Mac? Not bothered bout you Windows users, I've used it on
there and it's fine (although bulky and slow).
I made the switch to mac a long while back, and coming from
Windows and HomeSite (oh how much I love homesite!!!) the natural
move was to go to Dreamweaver. So I bought a retail copy (along
with PhotoShop CS3) for quite a bit of cash, and I don't use CS3 as
its pretty damn awful on OSX!
By the way, I NEVER touch the WYSIWYG part of Dreamweaver
(wish I could delete all WYSIWYG stuff from it, as that what slows
it down I'm sure)
To name a few bugs (I'd like to know if you experience these
too):
1. It's very slow and bulky, I mean just moving the cursor to
a new line in code view is slow, just doesn't feel good. It
actually feels like its about to crash on me any minute! And I'm on
a 6GB 8 cOre 2.8GHz Mac Pro... so its not my Mac :)
2. I set my toolbars up to my own preference (i.e. I like to
have the "Standard" menu showing and the "Document" one not) then
suddenly out of the blue "Standard" has gone and the "Document" one
is there. Sometimes I boot up and all is good, open a document and
it disappears (along with the line numbers on the left), right
clicking says its still there but it isn't.
3. Certain folders on the left file view REFUSE to close! I
collapse them, open another folder up (uncollapse) and what do you
know, the other folder pops open again. Close and open dreamweaver
its open again... I've never manged to close this particular
folder, dreamweaver really likes it for some reason?
There are plenty more, but they are the main ones!
The unfortunate thing is I cannot find a good alternative on
OS X for syntax highlighting, the fact that HTML elements are
coloured differently is invaluable to me, and thats one of the main
things I love bout Dreamweaver (not to mention the global replace
feature that other IDE's don't include)?
Bring HomeSite to OS X is what I say :)
What is your experience of DW CS3 on OS X? Does it all work
correclty for you? Or are you annoyed by it too?

I plotted my escape from Microsoft for years before I finally
knew
enough about software and the technologies I was using and
had
sufficient money to make the leap. (I went for a top of the
line MacBook
Pro.)
On the negative side, I've learned that the Mac isn't a free
ride.
Upgrading to Leopard was a wrestling match, as was upgrading
to Adobe
Creative Suite (largely because certain sales people sold me
the wrong
upgrade package - twice). I'm also bothered by a number of
annoyances
that sometimes remind me of my Windows PC.
However, I'm working with a far greater variety of software
programs
than I ever had on my PC, and the annoyances seldom turn into
the minor
catastrophes that made life with M$ living Hell.
So far, Dreamweaver is working fine for me. The biggest
annoyance is the
fact that it likes to jump back and forth between "Spaces,"
though
Spaces remains my favorite Leopard feature.
I'm sorry you're having problems with yours - and I was
shocked to hear
that that Rosetta crap also applies to Dreamweaver. I'd never
heard of
Rosetta until I had some problems with my browsers. Enabling
Rosetta
fixed the problem, but, sheez - all that Rosetta business
sounds like
something that came straight from Bill Gates' living room. So
I'm not
sure if the problem ultimately rests with Adobe, Mac OS X or
both.
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the situation to
advise you.
However, if you live near a sizeable Apple store, schedule an
appointment with their "Mac Geniuses." I've gone in to see
them at 7
a.m. a couple times - free of charge - and they were a big
help.
If you're using Leopard, I assume you've already installed
the two
updates - 10.5.1 and 10.5.2. Ironically, the second update
appeared to
create one of the very problems it's supposed to eliminate.
(Whether or
not it's actually a problem is a matter of debate in the Mac
community;
it hasn't actually caused any problems for me.)
You might also try posting some questions on Apple's forums -
http://discussions.apple.com.
If nothing works, and you do go back to M$, I certainly
wouldn't hold it
against you. If Apple and/or Adobe don't have their act
together, then
you can't blame people for returning to a platform that
works. However,
I have much greater confidence in both Apple and Adobe to fix
their
problems in the long run than I do in Microsoft. Even if you
get
Dreamweaver to work on your PC, will your other software
programs work?
In summary, I've learned that there's no free ride in
computing. But I
still prefer my Mac to M$, and I don't believe I've heard as
many
complaints about Dreamweaver on a Mac as I have about Vista.
But do
whatever's best for you.
