Premier CS3 and MTS files

So, is Premier CS3 unable to recognize and handle MTS files? I just got an HD camcorder that shoots AVCHD and the files, which have an .MTS extension, don't appear when I browse to import into Premier. I just want to confirm that I'm SOL. If so, I'm assuming my only workaround is to convert the files to SD in the camera and give up on HD until I upgrade my software? Or else, is there a plug-in or something that will give CS3 the ability to work with these?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

I got this yesterday and tested it...works pretty well for cs3 which is what I use. However, the source video I converted had 6 audio channels and sound woud not go into cs3 with converted file ...so I used the same conversion program to extract the sound as a wav file, and that went into cs3 nicely...
You would want to "link" the audio and video once in cs3..if you have similar issues someday
This is the program I got ( only if you cannot afford cineform neoscene right now )
AVCHD CONVERTER and export info aunsoft 29 dollars

This is what I converted the avchd file to using that program
hope that helps

Photoshop Elements and RW2 Files

I have a panasonic FZ28 that shoots RW2 RAW files. I see PE7 has Camera Raw but when I try and open the file it says it can't be parsed?
Thanks
Brian

Brian, I searched for the same... had the same issue... and was tickled to find your post that said you have the same camera as me. I'm just curious, are you as happy with the camera as I am? I bought one for me and one for my husband, and it's so good that i'm tempted to buy one more & just put it in the closet for the day this one dies. OMG... how did I ever find a camera with every feature I ever wanted... easy to use interface and the lightest weight I could have ever imagined. I'm just thinking it's the best kept secret out there. Or is it?
Thanks for the post here. I am off to get the download.

CS3 and mp4 files, black frames

Hi,
I am working as a reporter for the sports portal. So far I have been making my videos using Adobe Pro CS3. Previously I used Sony MiniDV Handycam and I had no problem editing them afterwards. Yesterday I got new camera - Sony XDCAM EX. When I import videos in my computer I have them in MP4 format. The first problem I had was that I could have sound for those MP4 files when I imported them in Adobe CS3 (if someone could help with this as well, it would be wonderful). I figured out how to get this sound but when I finally made my video and exported that, my new .avi movie had like black frames, it was dimming regularly like the movies they made in the beggining of previous century.
Please check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jcp9xzTm78I
Thanks in advance!

Premiere CS3 and mpeg files

Befor to install the CS3 version of Premier, I would know if Premiere to recognize mpeg files or must rendering it (so Premiere Pro 2)
Thanks.

Based on reading a LOT of problem reports, importing files from a DVD camcorder or other MPEG device, or Ripping DVD files rarely results in success in Premiere... do not be fooled by movie industry advertising into thinking that "DVD Quality Video" is suitable for EDITING... it is not... a DVD is designed to be for PLAYBACK only... and that includes trying to edit a Standard Def MPEG or VOB file!
You should also use WAV sound files, not the compressed MP3 format, To work with AC3 files in Premiere, it MAY work to copy the ad2ac3dec.dll file from the Encore DVD directory into the Premiere directory
Go to my notes page http://www.pacifier.com/~jtsmith/ADOBE.HTM
Click the internal link for editing compressed files... read
There are other products better suited to your task... but if you only have DVD type files, you should convert to DV AVI... go to the VideoHelp link in my notes and look for a program to convert
The only SD (Standard Def) files that Premiere really likes are DV AVI type 2

CS3 and .aco files?

I have CS3 for mac and am trying to open a .aco file is this possible?

This thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1005014 should answer your question.

Differences between CS3 and CS4 files?

Could you please explain what was the differences between "Adobe illustrator cs4 eps files" and "Adobe illustrator cs3 eps files"?
Thank for looking into this.

The difference would be that CS 4 would support the features in AI CS 4 and CS 3 would not support those features.

CS3 and Recent Files Issue

Since installing CS3 about 2 weeks ago, have had the problem of using Save As to a network path that is not persistent. When starting CS3, it fails to open until network paths in recent files are restored.
It seems to lookup all recent file locations while starting up.
Is there any way to override that lookup?

>Is there any way to override that lookup?
set the recent file list size to 0.

Cs3 and raw files

Computer blew its' brains out, rebuilt, reloaded CS3. Can't open raw images. What did I forget? using Nikon d300 / 200.

You need a later version of ACR (4.3) than the default on a re-install of CS3.

Illustrator CS3 and Autocad DWG layers

When I open a DWG file in Illustrator CS2, the "Open" dialog box has a check box to "merge layers." If I don't check the box, the DWG file opens with layers intact. I don't see that option when I open the same DWG file in Illustrator CS3 and the file opens with layers flattened. Is this option located somewhere else?

I'm in the same boat as everyone here. Kind of stunned that they would take this option away. Its not really a very workable solution for me unless I can keep the layer structure. Actually worse than the layer structure, is that closed plines become individual line segments so you can't just define a fill color.
I know there are a few plugins for CS2, but they don't show support for CS3 yet. Has anyone heard from any of the plugin creators, or from Adobe, about plans to address this. Here are the plugins I found.

http://www.hotdoor.com/index.php?content=cs3features&navcontent=none
I remember when Adobe switched form PageMaker to InDesign that they made a stand alone application (included with InDesign) to convert from one format to the other). If they don't fix Illustrator, even this kind of approach would be fine for me (but still not as good as from within the application).
So what are the work arounds.
- OK, I guess the best is to keep CS2 around, but we have people in the office who bought CS3 as a full purchae, vs. upgrade, so they don't have that option.
- Well fixing the layers while time consuming could be done (but not good option). If autocad file is setup color by layer, with each layer having unique color, you could use select by color and then drag to new layer.
- Don't know a work around to re-close the segments. Going segment by segment ot join on a site plans with tons of islands and curbs, would not be fun at all.

How to open animated .GIF files in Photoshop CS3 and newer

Q: Since ImageReady is long gone from Photoshop, how can I open animated GIF files in Photoshop CS3 and newer?
A: File -> import-> video to layers.
In the dialogue box type "*.*" to show all file types.
Select your GIF file and which frames to import.
They will now be available in your animation palette.

Zeno
curt y, sorry for the late reply, I tried that but I doesn't work. I have to choose at least two files in the Load Layers window in order for the OK button to be available and then some action script uses the different files to make layers and merges them but not from the frames of the gif file. I can undo through the script to see what it did but it never accessed the frames of the gif file, just the first frame. Choosing "make frames from layers" in the animation palette only puts the original files into layers - that is only the first frame of the gif file.
I guess I'm out of luck with the 64 bit version of Photoshop as Zeno suggested :-(
What program would you people suggest for opening each frame from gif files?

How to open Camera RAW (CR2) files in Photoshop CS3 and CS4? (Mac)

I have a Canon 7D. I prefer to shoot in raw format, but the CR2 files cannot be opened by either Photoshop CS3 on my Mac in the office OR by Photoshop CS4 on my iMac at home.
I have tried dowloading the Adobe DNG Coverter and Camera Raw 4.6 update (which is SUPPOSEDLY intended to work for CS3) and followed the instructions to replace the plug-in. STILL a no-go. CS3 STILL tells me "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."
What gives? Does anyone know of a way to get CR2 files to open in Photoshop CS3 or CS4? (A way that actually works?) Because Adobe's plug-in update doesn't seem to do it, and Canon's "fine-grain" editing controls for raw images is pretty lack-luster.
Thanks (in advance)!

Have you tried opening up out of Bridge? If that doesn't work you may new need to download a new driver from Canon. All my peripherals are Canon and I am always having to download new drivers everytime I update. Fortunatly they are really easy to find on Canon's site.

[IDS CS3 WIN] .tmp and .idlk files not getting cleaned up

I'm using a C# Soap client with CS3 Server on Windows. My script is opening a template file, importing a tagged file, then saving an ID document and generating a PDF file. The script closes the document before quiting, but I'm seeing a trail of .idlk and .tmp files left behind on the server.
Example: I'm starting with the following files... importTemplate.indd and importTest.txt. The script opens importTemplate.indd, imports importTest.txt and creates importTest.indd and importTest.pdf, then closes the document.
For testing purposes, these files are all located in the same location. What I see in the directory after the script has run (successfully) now includes the following:
tes493.tmp
~importtemplate~uvw2ve.idlk
~importtest~borbth.idlk
~importtest~myhstu.idlk
I am closing the document with the following:
app.documents.item(0).close(SaveOptions.no);
I could understand if the document wasn't getting closed that I would see one .idlk file, but why 3?
Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Hi again
does the '3 days ago' actually set the time? so '1 week ago' would be valid too?Ah, was afraid you might ask that
'3 days ago' does "set the time" as you say. '1 week ago' might work, but the man pages are not particularly helpful on what works and what doesn't. The find man page refers you to the cvs man page, which says:
However, cvs currently accepts a wide variety of other date formats. They are intentionally not documented here in any detail, and future versions of cvs might not accept all of them.But that gives an example of "1 hour ago" being valid, so I tried a few variations
wacking whole directories scares me... especially since there are live directories in here that I think shouldn't be deleted... can I take this part out?Yes, you can leave out the complete second "find" command if you wish. But applications shouldn't leave files or folders lying around in /tmp or /var/tmp and expect them to still be there when they come back!
excuse my ignorance what language is this?This is the Bourne Shell or more accurately bash. You can try reading the man page, but if you're interested I think you'd find an introductory shell scripting book a lot more readable!
My weekly hasn't run since Nov 18th but the Monthy and daily both say Dec 1st!!!No problem. My weekly hasn't run since Nov 15th. It will eventually get run, after about a week of cpu time (not sleeping).
Now that the periodic scripts are managed by launchd, rather than cron, they do eventually get run. Unless you are running a busy server with hundreds of users, rotating the log files is no big deal with today's typical disk sizes.

Hi - for any photo, info in mountain lion shows a different file size than Photoshop does. I've tested with CS3 and CS6 and get the same problem. Doesn't happen with CS3 and OSX10.4 or any previous versions of Photoshop and OSX. Anyone know why?

this one is actually a really rare symptom of a flaky connection to the ipod on a Windows PC. there's more going on in terms of hardware on nanos and 5th gens than in the earlier models ... so if the connection is flaky to precisely the right/wrong degree, itunes will see the ipod, but misidentify it as an earlier version of ipod.
tracking down the cause of the flakiness can be tricky ... as you already know ...
just checking. have you tried connecting with a different (known-good) USB cable? does that seem to have any impact on the rate of occurence of the problem?

File size different in Bridge CS3 and Photoshop

I'm using PS CS3 and Bridge CS3 on a Macbook Pro. I have about 40 files that are about 50MB when opened in PS. In Bridge, under the thumbnails, the file size is pretty close to that, sometimes the exact amount, sometimes off by a couple/few MBs. I've been told this is due to some compression "on the disk" by Bridge. All the files are PSDs, by the way, and they are all flattened.
What I don't understand is why just a *few* files that are 50MB in PS are showing up MUCH smaller in Bridge; e.g., 36MB. If it's due to compression, why would Bridge compress just a few files so much?
I'm wondering if this has to do with the cached thumbnails, and maybe the thumbnails aren't showing the latest version (with accurate size) of the file. I don't know much about the cache, and I'm afraid to "purge the cache" without knowing anything about it. Also, if it has to do with preferences, I'm don't really know about that, either.

Bridge does not compress any files whatsoever. Bridge is not an image editor, it's nothing but a browser that hands the files to their respective applications. Bridge does not "open" or "save" files, it can't compress them in any shape or form.
What you are seeing is the difference between the opened, uncompressed file in RAM and the space the file occupies on disk once
Photoshop has saved and compressed it.
The Bridge cache has nothing to do with any of this.
