Curly quotes in titles in Premiere Pro CS4 - how to get them?

How can I get the titler text tool to give me proper typographer's curly quotes instead of the inch marks? Is using Alt0147 and Alt0148 the only way?
Thanks

Use the character map. You can see what you want to select.
I use it all the time for special characters.

Premiere Pro CS4 How to: Effects.

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone could help me out with some effects I am trying to acomplish with Premiere Pro CS4.
The first effect I would like to do is a fog effect (eg. attachment 1)
Secondly, I would like to do is a sparkle effect/glittery text, just like attachment number 2 (sparkles on text). I know how to do the rotations and all but the sparkles/glittery title (text) I'm unsure of.
Lastly, I would like to do a light flash effect just like on attachment 3 (the big light flashes on the text)
I apologise if I couldn't describe better, this is why I have attached images to show, they have been screen capped from a video (by the way, the images I have attached, I have reduced the quality so the file isn't too big. All the 3 images don't even add up to a mb.
Are these effects difficult to do? Does Premiere Pro CS4 even support these effects or would I need some program such as After Effects?
Thank you.

Along with Red Giant (Harm's rec.), ProDAD's VitaScene has most of those, if not all. I'd also check out Digital Juice, as they often have "specials" on some ProDAD plug-ins.
For a "homemade" fog, you can add a Color Matte in a grey color, add Noise, and Gaussian Blur. Alter the Opacity to suit, and maybe even animate this Effect>Motion>Position. For an animated fog, I'd create a still image in PS, to have some room to animate, making it larger than the Frame Size.
[Edit] In PS, I'd also look at the Filter>Difference Clouds too.
Good luck,
Hunt

Slow Playback in Premiere Pro CS4 (how do you lower preview res?)

Hi everyone, I was just wondering how to lower the playback/preview resolution while3 editing in Premiere Pro CS4? I'm editing 720p video (.mov format, that's what my camera shoots in, so I don't think I can change that). All I can see when I right click the source monitor is "Quality > High, Draft, Automatic". Is there anything else I can select? (kind of like in after effects, where you can set it to 1/2, 1/4, etc.). I've been searching the internet for the better part of the day and all I've found is that 'quality' menu I mentioned earlier.
It's still painfully slow to watch on 'draft', and it doesn't look like it makes that much of a difference in quality. Now, my laptop isn't exactly the rendering beast I'd like it to be, but it can handle 720p [slowly] in after effects so I think it should work in premiere too.
Thanks!
PS: Any of you experts think this would be a good computer for NLE / rendering effects?
http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7192259&Sku=B69- 1277

Thanks for clearing that up!
New desktop it is... I'll probably be swapping out the low power drive for a faster one, since Harm mentioned that in his 'building for NLE' thread.
Oh yeah, one more thing: How can I force it to render? For example, I put an HD clip into the timeline, it has a yellow bar along the top of the timeline in it's location, yet when I hit enter it just plays (with annoyingly low fps)?? Going to sequence > render effects in work area doesn't work either.

Premiere Pro CS5 - How to get a good Slow Motion

Hi all,
what's the best option to get a realy good Slow Motion in Premiere Pro CS5. We use an interlaced HDV Material (1080i).
We try change Speed Duration to 50%, mix frames and some other options (could only tell you the german description = "Flimmern vermindern" think it's "reduce flicker" in englisch) but we still get no good result. We are very spoiled of the slowmotion which our Avid System creates.
Any ideas, how we can do this in CS5 ? In CS4 there was also and Effect called Time Stretch which has done a good job.
I miss this effect in CS5.
Thanks for any Information.
Werner

I've treid the demo. Looks realy good.
Showstopper is the big price. Also when we trimm the clip on the timeline where we think this should be the scene which we want to slowmo, add the twixtro slowmo on it, then we got another trimmed result. for example: add a 50% slowmo, should doouble the lenght of the clip on the timeline. this is not happened. So we have to re-trimm the clip to get writgh scenen lenght.
Maybe we do something wrong. The plugin is realy great ! thanks for the tipp.

TODAY WE GOT OUR MXO2 yeaaahhhhh :-)

I have broken codecs in Premiere Pro CS4, how do I fix?

I've been having audio and video problems for a while, in many of my programs. I finally found what may be the cause - 5 broken codecs in Premiere CS4 2 audio and 3 video (ie aa2daac.ax, etc.) A program called Sherlock2 found them, so who knows, but it sounds pretty logical since Premiere was the only program in CS4 I couldn't get to work.
Anyhow, does anyone know how I could repair those files? Can I copy them from the disk? Thanks for any help I can get!

RuesterProd wrote:
Just curious, How come it didn't find the same codecs broken in After effects, Soundbooth, or encore?
My guess is that only the ones from PPro are registered (in the windows registry). You'll see that the codecs exist independently in the AE, encore, soundbooth, etc. directories.
I think this link was provided above. Check it out again; it provides a program that gives correct results.
http://premierepro.wikia.com/wiki/Sherlock
Checking to see if your codec is okay is easy: in one of the codec checking programs, look at the file name that it says is missing. Just go to that location and confirm that it is in fact there. These programs are not finding "apple" because the filename that is in fact there is apple (without the quote marks).
This was a new problem in CS3, and, while it is not really a "problem" (the codecs are fine), I do wish Adobe had fixed it. They are the only ones putting quote marks around their codec names in the windows registry.

Why do I get a Premiere Pro CS4 symbol in the project folder when I save a CC-project?

When I save a project edited with Premiere Pro CC in the project folder I get a symbol for Premiere Pro CS4 instead ot getting the CC-symbol. I can't open the CC-project by clicking the CS4-symbol. Why?

I found out myself that you can choose in the project folder if you want to save the project in CS4 or CC. Sorry I took your time with my problem.

Importing .psd file with transparency in Premiere Pro CS4 titler

I am trying to import a psd file with transparency into the Premiere Pro CS4 titler and the transparency will not come in. I've tried psd, png, jpeg, gif, targa and none will preserve the transparency. What I'm trying to do is create a custom lower third using a image without having to build it inside the titler or drop the PSD directly onto my timeline. This seems like an easy task, but I'm not having any luck. Please help!

Boy you guys are quick. I did not find this thread until after you'd sorted it out. You know how much I like to work on PS to PrPro problems!
Jeff,
You might want to move this thread to the PrPro sub-forum, as it will likely help others with PSD Transparency issues, and might never get seen back here.
Like you haven't been busy doing the housekeeping already. You moved one post WHILE I was replying to it. Imagine my surprise, when I replied and ended up in the other sub-forum - as if by magic!

Adobe Media Encoder for Premiere Pro CS4 stops working on the same frame every time...

I currently have Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 and have never had these issues exporting before. My timeline is less than 3 minutes long, but it does deal with multiple big files. It rendered perfectly and it plays perfectly in the timeline. When I try to export it using Media Encoder, however, it freezes at the same frame every time (which is actually only a few seconds in!) and then crashes, so that I have to force quit. I have tried exporting it as many different codecs and the problem persists... same frame. I tried creating a new project entirely and whipping together a few titles and exporting that to see if it just won't export anything at all. The new project exported just fine, however, which I suppose is good news. But yeah, my work on that other project is very important to me and I reallllly want to export it. Please help!

Hi Jim! Thank you for your reply. I think you are right -- and that it lies in the audio somehow!
It turns out that if I choose to only export the video, and uncheck audio, it will export very well and smoothly. That's great news for me!
However, now I am trying to work out how to get the audio exported without issues. I actually had the idea of just playing the audio in the timeline and recording it via Stereo Mix, but my Windows 7 driver has Stereo Mix disabled, so it's back to square one. Any ideas of what I can do about the corrupted audio not exporting, which works fine when played in the timeline?

What is the best way to handle .mod files in premiere pro cs4?

I recently got a JVC Everio GZ-MG130u and as I'm sure many of you are aware, it saves footage in the .mod format.
I have googled this and found quite a few different solutions, but I'm just wondering if anything has changed since some of these solutions were posted, or in other words, what is the best way at this current point in time to handle .mod files in premiere pro cs4?
As far as I know, the best thing to do is convert the .mod to .avi and then import it into premiere so it can be edited.. Is there a better way to do it than this? Also, by doing it this way, will I have separate audio and video tracks?
Thanks.

I have just done a bit of reading, here. All of the quotes that follow are from users who have posted in that thread.
It seems that there isn't one solid answer on this subject. The thread that I linked to was started 2 years ago, and replied to just 4 ago, so it's relatively current.
I noticed a couple different interesting statements:
posted by mmontgomery:
In the case of .MOD, you are actually getting a MPEG-2 file. The way
video files work is that there is a codec (COmpressor/DECompressor)
algorithm and a file wrapper (or extension). A JVC .MOD file is a
MPEG-2 encoded file, with a .MOD extension.
You're faced with two
challenges, first the .MOD file type is only recognized and support by a
few applications. I think we covered some of those already. The
interesting thing about wrappers and extensions is that they can be
dealt with in a variety of ways. Sometimes all you need to do to convert
the video file to a compatible video file is to change the extension.
In the case of .MOD files that's not enough. The .MOD wrapper apparently
does a few more things than just bare a unique extension name. It
requires a slightly more complicated method to convert that file. That
is why there is supplied software and that certain third party
applications have .MOD support.
(posted 2 years ago)
This seems to indicate that Ann's solution of simply re-naming the extension is not good enough, unless I am mis-interpreting what she meant.
However, another user said:
posted by futball8:
I edit with Adobe Premiere Pro CS3. All I have to do is simply rename
the .MOD files as .MPG and then import into PP CS3. It takes a small
amount of time to conform the audio, but no file conversion is
necessary. It's a pretty slick workflow and I've never encountered any
problems editing them this way.
(posted 5 months ago)
One can only assume that simply re-naming the extension from .mod to .mpg works in some circumstances, and doesn't work in others. I assume it depends largely on the editing software being used. Perhaps there are still issues that futball8 was simply unaware of or never encountered.
That said, there seems to be a couple of different real solutions to this problem that I have found:
1. Simply use an editing program that supports .mod file format. While pe7 and pe8 supposedly support the .mod format, the following should be noted:
posted by macksgarage:
While Elements 'supports' these files, it is markedly unstable and frequently crashes while using the files, though the application is otherwise reliable. The solution I have arrived at is to repair the container using ffmpeg. (see #3)
(posted 5 months ago)
2. Use a file conversion utility of your choice that will covert .mod to .avi, or another desired format. Import the resulting .avi file into premiere pro cs4.
3. Use FFmpeg. This seems to be the best solution as it does not convert any audio or video:
posted by macksgarae:
If you are not familiar with ffmpeg, it may be a bit of a bear to
learn, but it's not only useful for this, but functions as a video swiss
army knife useful for splicing, muxing/demuxing, and rendering just
about any format into just about any other format.
ffmpeg is an open source project from the linux world, but it has
been ported and is supported on windows. Fetch it here and place it somewhere handy
on your system.
To rewrite the container into a nice, standards compliant .mpg file
that doesn't make applications die, WITHOUT rerendering video or audio
itself, I use this command.
ffmpeg -i INFILE.MOD -acodec copy - vcodec copy OUTFILE.mpg
This not only renames the file, but actually rebuilds the container
around unmodified video and audio data, yielding a file which works much
more stably with Adobe applications, and presumably others as well, as
ffmpeg's open source development goals result in very standards
compliant files.
(posted 5 months ago)
Now, this seems to properly address the issues that can arise from simply renaming .mod to .mpg, as suggested by Ann. So from this point, I assume you can simply import the .mpg into Premiere Pro cs4 (or any other .mpg compliant program) and edit without issue, but it seems like I remember hearing something about Premiere not liking mpegs or something like that, so in that case, maybe it'd be better to skip this and go with option #2. But, it's been awhile since I've touched any NLE, much less premiere pro cs4, so I could be completely wrong and it may have no problems handling mpegs.
All of the things that I've quoted here came from the same thread, so I don't know how accurate any of this is, but the people that have posted these things seem fairly knowledgeable. If someone reads all of this and can confirm or deny any of it, it would be much appreciated.
Option 1 is not really an option for me, because I am sticking with premiere pro cs4 -- I'm not going to get another editor just because it has .mod support. That leaves me with options 2 and 3: Convert to avi, or change the file wrapper/extension properly with FFmpeg and then simply import the resulting .mpg file... Which is better? Or is there yet another solution that I am unaware of that would be even better?

Premiere pro CS4+media encoder CS4 problem encoding to WMV and MOV

Hello,
I am new to CS4. I lurked around the meanders of CS4 help and FAQ. In spite of the large help database I could not find a solution to my issue.
I edited a little movie from shots I took during holidays. I edited in premiere pro cs4 and it is a bit faster than CS3 <yoohoo>
However I want to export the movie as NTSC source to high quality download. In the Expot settings, I wrote a file output of course so it can encode and compile the movie somewhere on my HDD and I did not touch anything in standad NTSC source to high quality download values and tabs. In the end the movie should be around 848 mega.
I press OK, then Media Encoder pops up on screen. my project comes automatically in Media Encoder which is neat so I just had to click on start Queue but here is my problem...
I can wait for 4 hours or more, Media Encoder status states Encoding but nothing moves forward. Elapsed time remains at 00:00:00, Estimated Remaining remains blank.
Although something triggered my attention when I widen Media Encoder Source Name tab. It sounds like my project from Premiere Pro is placed in a temporary folder instead of using the regular save project file folder in ...>adobe>premiere pro>4>sebsofie2010b which strange.
I try to place a picture of my issue and perhaps it will help everyone.
This picture was taken about 1 hour and half after I tried to encode the movie for the fifth time.
The status quotes "Encoding"...
Thanks in advance for any help

Hello,
This is Song to an Illiad. I had to change Email address and password as I am switching provider soon.
So Ok to bypass the issue at that time, I simply transfered all files to a jumpdrive and re-did the composition at a friend house. Although my problem persist and Thank you for the Wiki link it was helpful. Sherlock free ware discovered several erronous Codec. Do not ask me why, how, when please. I do not toy around with codecs and all I do is update software but I have several software going from Adobe to Autodesk series as well as Nero Light version that came with my Dvd burner. Should I also mention I play video games when down time permits, as such I updated several time the DirectX software. Beside this, what is it called... Dvix or Xvid, well something like that... prompted me about 2 months ago to update to a newer version which I did. Finally I installed a freeware to export an avi type to another found on Cnet.com a few months ago as the file could be seen in Premiere pro but there were no Audio track seen in premiere while the client gave me his camcorder and I knew there should be an audio track, it was a sort of camcorder that records on a memory sticks which is why the camera was small. It was a canon but nothing more detailed than that. Anyway, I had the camera with no drivers whatsoever and I had a hard time to find the driver for free online which is why I found a freeware or perhaps was it a shareware or a trial (I am not sure), anyway it decoded and re-encoded the movie which it did successfully with lots of image loss quality but it was succesful. I know I deliberatly threw the shareware or trial straight in the garbage once I was done because I do not want this kind of junk on my PC. Perhaps could it be the issue with Media Encoder not able to start?!?!
Here comes a couple of texts Copy/Past & image to describe what Sherlock found

What should I do? Can I just reinstall the codec from my Adobe CS4 Production Suite (Without) creating more issues and problems? It seemed the Wiki hints were helpful to pin point a problem but not always at giving solution.
Thanks in advance,
Seb
P.S: Could Adobe throw a little software to download to ensure all codecs are what they should be like and prompt user to reinstall straight from our Dvds? It would be soo much easier that way.

Where can I download a trial for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 Middle East version

Hello
I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4
Now I am working with new project which requires me to add some titles in Arabic (I mean from right-to-left direction)
Please how can I do so?
Does it requires me to get a new copy for middle east? or I can do it with some how using my current version?
Please consider it important and needed.

I do not mean the interface or anything a like.
But I only mean to suport or enabling titles written in Arabic language like this (بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم)
We do have Adobe Photoshop CS4 ME (not mine but my company has it and it support adding Arabic as I've mentioned above)
So I was looking for to see Adobe Premiere have the same thing.
Thanks,
I'll add the feature request as you recommended.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 cannot be re-installed

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 cannot be reinstalled after failing for unknown reasons (no program crash but after a normal start-up after working flawlessly for years). I get the message: "Adobe Premiere Pro Startup Error: Adobe Premiere Pro was unable to communicate with the process "Importer Process Server". Reastarting your computer may fix this problem". Several trials showed that this is not true. -- I uninstalled the program using the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and reinstalled it with the original, registered DVDs. Several trials failed (the antivirus program and the firewall were inactivated). I continue to get the same message. - The Adobe Encore CS4 included in Premiere, however, seems to work normally. But the Adobe Media Encoder CS4 does not function as well. The following message is shown (miraculously in German and translated by me): The product starting point
??0NewHandlerinitializer@ErrorManager@config@dvacore@@QAE@XZ was not found. - I suspect that a faulty Premiere file remains in spite of the cleaning action by the Adobe Cleaner Tool. The black screen of the Cleaner Tool does no longer list any sign of Premiere. The Windows Registry and the C:/ disk were cleaned as well (CCleaner).
Thank you for your help!

The Permiere installation went very smoothly after inactivating the
anti-virus (Kaspersky) program and the firewall (Windows 7, Kaspersky). I
had done a first trial and forgot to do this inactivation. Premiere did not
install correctly and I received a corresponding message suggesting a
repeat installation. I used the Cleaner Tool again and removed the
leftovers of this aborted installation again.
Thanks for your efforts to help me.

Does Premiere Pro CS4 really support Vista 64-bit?

I have installed Premiere Pro CS4 on my Vista 64-bit server and recognized in the task manager that Premiere is listed as a 32-bit application "Adobe Premiere Pro.exe *32" which makes me wonder if Adobe's statement given in the FAQ is correct, where they say "Adobe Premiere Pro is optimized to run on 64-bit systems. The key advantage of 64-bit systems is that they can use up to 64GB of RAM. Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 can use large amounts of this memory because it splits different tasks into separate processes."
Am I executing the correct Premiere Pro EXE-file (the application itself works fine) and is that 32-bit application able to make use of the fully available RAM space (which is 8 GB on my system)?

Well great for you Harm, but this problem has me stumped. I've been troubleshooting NLE systems since my Pinnacle DC30 Premiere 4.2 system.
I'm looking for a solution not to start a fight so if anyone has confronted similar problems and found a fix, please reply.
FYI, Adobe has made it clear that Premiere CS4 does not support daisy chaining decks or any other 1394 devices, but this is not my problem.
"Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 doesn't support multiple devices on a FireWire chain or multiple devices on a FireWire card."
Above quote copied from this Adobe support document http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405744.html
I'm not working with DV I have been shooting in 720P on a Sony PVW EX1 if that even matters.
Can you explain why my external array works well with XP fairly well with 32 bit Vista? It's an ASUS P5E Deluxe motherboard. This is not BS, I have a long list of Microsoft case numbers and it is REAL pain having to explain to someone in India the problem over and over again. I've been told by the array manufacturer SimpleTech ProDuo that it should work with the OS drivers. The Internet forums for other 1394 devices have many instances of 64 bit Vista incompatibility. The same problems I'm having with the same OS just different devices. What's really weird is how it will work fine like today, it's back to normal. I have had this system working perfectly then overnight the array vanishes in my computer but shows up in device manager with an error. Then a few hours later without changing anything, it starts working again, very intermittent. As usual, it will fail when there's a deadline.
I've run Avast antivirus, Malwarebytes and Spybot. Swapped cables,defragged drives, updated MB bios and software looked everywhere for solutions.
The MB Manual is found at http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us
I can transfer content to my internal array but I'm trying to optimize a workflow that starts by shooting on SxS cards on the PVW EX1 and transferring them to the array in the field with the 32 bit Vista laptop and making rough cuts. I keep the project files on a USB drive. Then transfer the array and USB drive to the 9450 quad desktop system in the studio for final editing. When I get this to work, it's a real time saver. But transferring files to the internal array is possibly the only dependable solution for now.

Notebook qualified for Premiere Pro CS4

Hi, I was wondering if this laptop would be equipped to use Premiere Pro CS4 on, not so much heavy use. I'll probably get the i7 2620m processor instead assuming it's worth it.
It's a Dell XPS 15

video card
NVIDIA GeForce GT 525M 1GB graphics with Optimus
For $100 more the laptop has 6gb ram and NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M 2GB graphics with Optimus... would the difference in running PP CS4 be only marginal, or would it result in extremely worthy improvements?
I use a desktop for editing but want to be able to use a laptop while I'm mobile, so I just want to assure I purchase a notebook that won't crash often or run too slow to bear while using PP.
also wondering if a notebook with a drive that's only 5400 rpm would be acceptable if I'm also using an eSata?
Thank you for your insight in advanced.

I second Harm's and John's recomendations. That XPS 15, as configured as listed above, does not meet Adobe's practical minimum requirements for either CS4 or CS5. In fact, CS4 actually demands far more RAM than it it constrained to use (as a 32-bit program), meaning that it will never perform well regardless of the platform because CS4 relies extremely heavily on the pagefile due to the lack of total RAM support.
And even if you plan to upgrade to CS5.5, that laptop suffers from several limitations:
1) The i5-2410M, like all other mobile i5 CPUs, is only dual-core. And given that no desktop dual-core system performs as well as even a mediocre quad-core system, the dual-core laptops will likely be even slower than most of the desktop dual-core systems.
2) The laptop has only 4GB of RAM. Unfortunately, the XPS 15 (in most configurations) does not support more than 8GB total of RAM. This means that you'd have to max out on the total RAM capacity just for Premiere Pro to even run acceptably well - and then, only if you choose a quad-core i7 (as in i7-2xxxQM).
3) Because mobile hard drives are typically slower-performing than their desktop counterparts, consider an SSD instead as the laptop's system drive. But then, you'd have to put up with only one eSATA port and two USB 3.0 ports to connect an external hard drive.
4) The GeForce GT 525M is barely adequate for CS5.x (if you choose to upgrade Premiere Pro to the latest version): It uses only DDR3 memory (current fast GPUs use (G)DDR5 memory), and it has only 96 CUDA cores. As such, it would be nearly two times slower than a fast mobile GPU.
5) Dell often includes a fair amount of bloatware pre-installed on their systems - and the bloatware seriously degrades system performance. What's more, some of that bloatware cannot be easily uninstalled - and some parts of the bloatware are left on the system to screw up overall system performance even if the main bloatware apps are uninstalled.
Put them all together, and you might very well end up with a system whose overall performance ranking is at or very near the very bottom of the PPBM5 results list on the PPBM5 site. In fact, even if you use CS4 and run PPBM4, your ranking would still be very near the bottom of the PPBM4 results list on the PPBM4 site.

PREMIERE PRO CS4 CRASHES every time I try to export to media....

Import a file in whatever format (MPEG 2, MPEG 4, AVI, etc.), I add effects (or leave the file untouched) and then try to export it to MEDIA...Then Premiere Pro CS4 crashes giving me this error:
Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
[..\..\Scr\Component\ComponentFactory.cpp-119]
After pressing "continue" it brings another message:
Sorry, a serious error has ocurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We wil attempt to save your current project.
I press OK and the Crash Report dialog box appears....
I installed Premiere Suite 3 weeks ago and I have never used this software before....Premiere has never allowed me to export any file...
My Lap Top has Windows 7 Ultimate - 64 with NVidia GT 130 1 GB video card, 8 GB of RAM, 1 TB of HD and 1920 x 1080 P display...
Any advice? or somebody who has had the same problem?
Thanking you for your time and courtesies in assisting me, please receive my best regards.
AZUARO

Have you just installed the software or applied
updates also?
Updates are needed for premiere as well as Media and other.......
