Debug Frameserver in CS4

Hello,
I have tried to export an HD timeline in Premiere Pro CS4 in Media Encoder CS4 to an MPEG2 HDTV 1080p 24. When I tried to do this, I got about 15 minutes in and the blue screen of death appeared. I have read this is a common occurrence.
So I am using Debug Frameserver to export to an AVI in Virtuldub and then try media encoder again with the single file.
My question, other than what other alternatives I could do to get my Mpeg2 without a program crashing, is...why is it when I select Debug Frameserver in Premiere CS4, it doesn't have any presets or custom settings available? When I used it in Premiere Pro CS3, I was able to select from A LOT of options, including aspect ratio and quality, etc...why are they absent in CS4? Am I missing something? Should I be using version 2.6 instead of 2.7?
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated, please!
Thanks.

2.7 works in it, but the features are just missing, which makes no sense at all, when they were all there on CS3. I beleive I installed DFS properly. In installation, I saved the core files under the default folder it gives you for DFS, and for the plug in files I saved under the one they gave me, which was Premeire Pro CS4/Common/MediaCore
I can't post a screenshot, but I can tell you. Once I go to export media and go to debug frameserver, the only option I have for settings once it's selected is "custom." No presets, no ability to change anything, even when I go to advanced setting and check the video...no presets have loaded, nothing. The only thing I can altered is the audio.
Then I click save and media encoder CS4 opens, and there is still no way to alter my settings like I was able to do in CS3. Why is this? Is something in the wrong folder? Do other people that are using Debug Frameserver in CS4 not have this issue?

Maybe there are some additional arguments or debugging settings required under the photoshop's executable environment settings. Any tips?

CS4 Crashes when attempting to change color of characters in story

Below is a function that we have been using since forever. It changes the color of a specified number of characters in a story starting at a specific position in the textmodel. The crash happens when processing the command (immediately after "11" is displayed). classID is kTextAttrColorBoss. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ErrorCode ApplyTextAttributes(ITextModel * pTextModel, int32 position, int32 length, UID swatchUID, ClassID classID) { ErrorCode rc = kFailure; do { InterfacePtr<ITextAttrUID> textAttrUID_Color(::CreateObject2<ITextAttrUID>(classID)); if (textAttrUID_Color == nil) { // ASSERT_FAIL("TSCore::CreateCharStyle: color invalid"); // CAlert::ErrorAlert("textAttrUID obj is nuil"); break; } if (swatchUID == kInvalidUID) { ASSERT_FAIL("TSCore::CreateCharStyle: ResolveRGBColorSwatch failed"); // CAlert::ErrorAlert("Invalid color UID"); break; } // Set our color attribute and store it: textAttrUID_Color->SetUIDData(swatchUID); InterfacePtr<ICommand> pApplyTextAttrCmd ( Utils<ITextAttrUtils>()->BuildApplyTextAttrCmd(pTextModel, position, length, textAttrUID_Color, kCharAttrStrandBoss) ); //pApplyTextAttrCmd->SetUndoability(ICommand::kUndoNotRequired); CAlert::WarningAlert("11"); rc = CmdUtils::ProcessCommand(pApplyTextAttrCmd); CAlert::WarningAlert("12"); if (rc != kSuccess) CAlert::WarningAlert("Error on ApplyTextAttrCmd"); }while(false); return rc; }

Hi Rick,
I've just been chasing a crash in the Debug version of CS4 InDsign which was asserting with Protective shutdown.
Like you the manifestation was on a call to ProcessCommand.
I don't know if it's the same, but on the off chance I'll detail what I discovered.
I traced back the cause of the crash to an earlier call through our ASB-CSB using the function template and macros, Process and make_functor.
The function template Process which is in the SelectionASBTemplates.tpp sets up a abortable command sequence on the stack.
If the result from the CSB function wasn't kSuccess then the sequence was aborted.
Unfortunately in our CS2 version of the ASB/CSB's we were rather naughtily using the return to pass a value and not an ErrorCode.
the result was that our call was forcing an abort everytime.
I've duplicated and renamed the Process function at the top of our ASB code and missed out the command sequence and it works fine.
This isn't really the best solution and I'll have to investigate further but at least it solves the crash.
Below is the new version of Process. I hope it helps you (or someone else out).
All the best
Caerwyn Pearce
#if (CREATIVE_SUITE_VERSION == CS2)
// Use standard function template from SelectionASBTemplates.tpp for CS2.
// It doesn't seem to cause problems, and I'd prefer not to fix it if it's working.
#define ATLASB_Process Process
#else
// DESCR: Call each CSB suite to process the request, wrapping the entire call in a sequence.
// Compare this with the one in SelectionASBTemplates.tpp.
// Essentially I've removed the command sequence, and the possibility of an abort.
// For some reason this was causing a Protective shutdown in CS4.
// Also note the abort takes place if the return value from Process is not kSuccess(aka 0).
// For GetSelection we are returning ATLCSB::SelectionType which has a value of -1, -2 or -3
// which is most definitely not kSuccess and which was provoking an abort.
// However that's not the end of the problem, and the line ErrorUtils::PMSetGlobalErrorCode
// seems to be causing problems else where outside of the Process function template.
// It may be that our code is not resilient to aborting command sequences.
// NOTE: Most definitely doesn't abort the sequence regardless of errors.

Will Procoder 3 work as well as Dan Isaacs HDV -- SD DVD Workflow

I have Premiere Pro Projects in HDV and I need to get them onto DVD.
Dan Isaacs HDV --> SD DVD Workflow looks complicated.
Are there products like Procoder 3 that will get the same results as Dans Workflow with less complication.
I realize Procoder 3 isn't cheap, but money isn't a problem.
I just want quality (HDV>SD DVD) conversions with the least amount of work.
TIA

> I no longer have access to the debug frameserver plugin in CS3 after installing cs4 on same machine. I saw a similar post and am eagerly awaiting to hear if Dan has any suggestions??
Sorry... I don't know about that one. Very strange.
> I cannot use Dan's workflow in CS4
You can't use DebugMode, but if you export some HD intermediary from CS4 you can run that through the script.
If you have the Cineform or Matrox HD codecs, you can try exporting with that. You can also try exporting as Lagarith @ 1440x1080i.
Another alternative that I'm forumating uses MPEG-2 4:2:2 I-frame exported from AME. See
this thread. (NOTE: This is for PAL I/O... adjust settings as necessary for NTSC).

Strange Error using Flex Profiler

Hi,
I am trying to use the Flex Profiler to figure out where to put my time when optimizing the code of a .swf file generated in Flash CS4. In Flex, I select "Profile External Application" for the "Profile" menu item. Then I select "Launch the application manually from Ooutside Flex Builder" and set the timeout to 60000 milliseconds. I then go over to Flash CS4 and start a debug session of the application I want to profile. This should make the profiler pick up the session and give me the stats I need. But I get a couple of weird errors in the Flex Builder.
The first error is a message box the pops up and says: "Profiling can only be performed on the debug version of an application." I am definitely running the Flash application in debug mode... The only thing that I can think may be a problem is that I am using the Flash Facebook API and linking to the external .swc file for that API. Could that cause a problem?
The second error is an exception that gets thrown in Flex Builder and is displayed in the Console. The exception is this:
flash.swf.SwfFormatException: unrecognized fill style type: 202
    at flash.swf.TagDecoder.decodeMorphFillStyle(TagDecoder.java:982)
    at flash.swf.TagDecoder.decodeMorphLinestyles(TagDecoder.java:914)

    at com.adobe.flash.profiler.internal.PlayerSession.run(PlayerSession.java:383)
    at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
It looks like it has something to do with a fill style, but I am just doing standard Flash stuff... No version of Flash Player has had any problems with the .swf file, but somehow the profiler is not liking something.
Does anyone have any idea about what is going on here? Apparently the profiler is a great tool to use to optimize ones code, and I would really love to use it.
Thanks!!!

I would not start a debug session in CS4. I would just find the SWF generated by the last debug session and launch the standalone player with that SWF. There might be some contention in having both CS4 and the FB profiler trying to hook up to the same SWF.

Boris continuum de-interlacer question dv 30fps to 24fps film conversion?

Just wondering what people think about converting NTSC interlaced dv video to film video at 24fps with a deinterlacer like the one that comes with boris continuum that does a simulation pulldown. Think I should just use a good deinterlacer or do you think I should convert my video to 24fps?
If everyone thinks I should do the pull down then I plan to use debug frameserver to encore and I will make a progressive dvd, does this sould like a good option.

And it will soon be getting even better… I am planning some updates for my dv2film functions: Better and faster deinterlacing, more accurate and faster motion compensation, multiprocessor optimization, so stay tuned!

ID CS4 Debug slow

Hi,
can anyone tell me, if there's anyway to speed up the performance of ID CS4 Debug. What I have already tried helps, but does not help enough:
I tried unchecking all TRACE options, under Test->PERFORMANCE I chose the no cache-checking (faster option), I unchecked all further Test options, the Debug Settings.xml File has everything set to false.
The performance running an extend script is still 8-10 times slower than the non-debugged version. Is this normal, and can any more be done to speed it up to near normal speed? (I'm testing on an Intel Centrino vPro 2GHz, with 2GB Ram.)
Thanks in advance!

InDesign CS4 Debug not working on Windows

Dear All,
Two days back I purchased Bronze ASN memebership. This is the first time when I am trying debug version of InDesign. I have installed InDesign CS4 Debug on both Mac & Windows. On Mac it is working fine, but on windows it is not working.
Debug Indesign is not getting launch and asking for re-installation. I have re-installed 2-3 times. Release version allready installed one my PC. I have tried with differeent combination like "install without Release version of InDesign", "insatalled on different drive", etc.
I hope some one can help me to resolve this issue.

I think the Adobe terminology is Required not recommended, but the
recommended build environment for CS4 plugins is Visual Studio 2005 plus
service pack 1.
As has been said many times on this list, and I can confirm from painful
experience, you may have problems if you try to build your plugins with VS
2008.

CS4:Mac:Debug Version:Localization Issue

Hi Folks,
I converted a plugin from CS3 to CS4 and testing it under debug version, I'm getting an assert during the launch of the plugin, it says:
"LocaleIndex resource in plugin kMypluginID of type 'PMST' points to bogus resource for locale 256, English"
I checked the "BasicLocalization" sample plugin and couldn't find anything different than I have in my code. That looks the same as mine(although I have more palettes/dialogs..), my plugin runs fine if I press continue in assert dialog and the translated strings in US/and other languages appear fine too.
I noticed the 'PMST' is in in CoreResTypes.h declared as:
#define kStringTableRsrcType 'PMST'
Does anyone know what I'm missing here or what could be wrong?
Thanks
P.S. Use Mac 10.5.5, SDK 352 , Xcode 3.1

What's "CS"? AE is included in the Master Collection and Production Premium, but not in the Web and Design suites, so maybe you simply have one of those?

Debugging on Mac - Active Architecture ppc is not present in AE CS4

When I try to debug using XCode, I get the message
"The active architeture ppdc is not present in the executable 'AE CS4' which contains i386."
So how do I configure the build to allow debugging?

I was using CS4 sdk and not being able to debug.
I switched to CS3 SDK as you suggested and found a way to debug.
In the project build properties I changed architectures from"ppc i86" to "32-bit universal".
Now I can debug!
So what architecture should I use for the release version?
(maybe a stupid question, but I'm not a Mac person)

Flash CS4 debug window does not show anything

We have Flash CS3 and CS4.
When I open a simple file with a trace it will show in CS3,
but the output window in CS4 keeps empty.
I tried the following:
=========================================================
1. Debug movie.
2. After Flash Player is launched to show your swf, right
click in the Player and select Debugger.
3. Select Local Host and click Connect.
4. At this point, a debugger connection should be
established. Click X button in the Debug Console to end the debug
session.
5. Try debug movie again and a connection should be
established between the player and Flash, it'll stop at the
breakpoints from now on.
============================================================
But with step 3 I got an error:
"Adobe Flash Player 10 couldn't connect with debugmode or
anlalyse" (translating it from Dutch)
Please help, because CS4 is now worthless for me and we have
a training now about it.

Can uninstalling and installing CS4 fix the debug event error message?

Hello,
Can uninstalling and installing cs4 solve the debug event error message?

Can uninstalling and installing cs4 solve the debug event error message?
Well, that DOES seem to be the scripted mantra of Adobe TS in some out of the way country. According to most reports, that cures everything from trying to Capture over a USB cable to working with footage from your cellphone camera. In most cases, it has cured very little, though maybe the Debug Event error IS something that will be fixed by this.
Good luck,
