Default Export settings?

Is there anyway to set the export settings as a default? Ever since I did the new update it appears as if Premiere no longer remembers the last setting I used to export - as I am often doing 11 - 12 videos per day it is a huge waste of time for me to continually have to select the same export settings over and over.
Thanks in advance for any help

Thanks for all your answers, however none of them really help me. I'm not asking about presets, I know very well how to set them up and how to use them in both Premiere and AME.
I have 12 presets saved and the number is still growing, I edit rushes into single clips every day and since they are shot on different cameras (DSLR, BMPCC, C300...) I have to use different presets for all of them.
At the moment when I hit export the setting always defaults to HD 720p 24 h.264 AAC 48kHz, which is useless to me as among other things all my exports have to have audio sampling dropped to 44100Hz. Before the update after selecting my preset once Premiere defaulted to the selected preset in following sequences, now it always defaults to the useless 720p 24fps setting.
It might not seem like a big issue to some, however when you are editing in volume and dealing with loads of formats like me, the ability to rely solely on keyboard shortcuts is massively important as it allows me to smash through an edit with looking at the export window only once.
I do realise I could queue my exports into AME and drag and drop my preset to all queued exports, however that's a loss of time for me, as normally I trim and colour correct my first clip, send it to AME and start the export, go back to Premiere and work on the next clip, send to to AME.... This way by the time I get to my final clip 70%-90% of all my exports from that project will be done, instead of waiting for all clips from one project to export.
I simply don't understand why there are some many options for storing effect presets and setting default effects but no default export setting or am I missing something? I like the new colours of the interface but functionality should always be more important.
Would be great to get an answer from Adobe about this but of course any suggestions and fixes are very welcome. If anyone knows of a way to downgrade to the previous version please tell me as from my perspective this version of premiere due to lack of functionality is not really an upgrade more of a 'bad facelift' looks better on the surface but hides damage on the inside.
Thanks!

User Default export settings

Hi,
i am not sure whether or not i am even in the correct forum category here but i have a question (Problem !!) which i am hoping someone can help with.
I have exported a report into excel and i used the list-export- function and then selected spreadsheet. This then gave me multiple options where i then selected one of them and clicked in the box which stated something like 'Always use this type'.
Now i cannot seem to export my reports in the desired format. Where can i find the settings to undo what i did so that i get the full list of file types back?

mtleigh -
If I am reading your message correctly, you or a user selected "Always use this format" an now they want to change it.
We had this same problem some time ago and I keep this info handy as it took us forever to figure out.
I advise you to be careful as if you select all under General Data, it will delete everyone's setting.
Run program SALV_BS_ADMIN_MAINTAIN. (It is report Maintenance for ALV Control Data)
Under ALV Data select: All
Under Actions select: Delete
Under General Data select: Detailed Selection
(Fill in Client and Userid with issue.)
Execute.
Once you execute, it will show you that users settings. You can delete them with "Remove Line" and have the user try again.
There may be a different way, but we never found one and this works for us.

Export Document to PNG file. Change default export settings.

Hi All,
In my plugin I need to export active document to png file with specific options. And sometimes I need to export definite pages from the document, but not all.
In standard UI of InDesign there are several basic steps of export:
1."File"->"Export";
2. Choose the location and filename to export to;
3. Customize export options.
In my plugin I need to have the possibility to set options from 2 and 3 steps.
I have found out that there are some bosses, which deal with PNG:
kPNGErrorStringServiceBoss
kPNGExportCommandBoss
kPNGExportPrefsScriptProviderBoss
kPNGExportProviderBoss
kPNGExportSetPrefsCommandBoss
kPNGExportUIDialogBoss
kPNGFilterConversionBoss
kPNGIconButtonWidgetBoss
kPNGImageReadFormatBoss
kPNGImageWriteFormatBoss
kPNGPrefsDialogBoss
Also, there are some interfaces and widget id's in the following headers "PNGFilterUIID.h", "PNGPrefsUIID.h", "PNGFilterID.h", which deal with png export process.
One of the ways to solve my problem is to create png export dialog (maybe IDialogMgr::CreateNewDialog), iterate over all widgets and set necessary values, but I don't know how to create this ExportDialog.
Any ideas how to solve this are of great value.
Thanks in advance.

I have already tried this method from the SDK example:
    // Load the plug-in's resource.
        PMLocaleId nLocale = LocaleSetting::GetLocale();
        RsrcSpec dialogSpec
            nLocale,                    // Locale index from PMLocaleIDs.h.
            kBscDlgPluginID,            // Our Plug-in ID from BasicDialogID.h.
            kViewRsrcType,                // This is the kViewRsrcType.
            kSDKDefDialogResourceID,    // Resource ID for our dialog.
            kTrue                        // Initially visible.
        // CreateNewDialog takes the dialogSpec created above, and also
        // the type of dialog being created (kMovableModal).
        IDialog* dialog = dialogMgr->CreateNewDialog(dialogSpec, IDialog::kMovableModal);
        if (dialog == nil)
            ASSERT_FAIL("BscDlgActionComponent::DoDialog: can't create dialog");
            break;
When I use kSDKDefDialogResourceID, it creates dialog, which was defined in my plugin resource file not a standard export dialog
What shoul I use instead kBscDlgPluginID and kSDKDefDialogResourceID?

Still cant find good export settings for clean blacks/fades...

I have been a professional videographer for years now working full time and STILL dont have default export settings that will give me nice clean footage. If its just straight footage without any fades to black, cc, or that kind of thing then im just fine. but in my current project i fade to black a couple times and fade back into my footage to create dramatic pauses, but the fades are always very pixelated, and if i darken footage, i can never get clean blacks, even if my iso is at zero, i always get tons of artifacts in my export even though it looks fine in my viewer before export.
im using a 7d with cs6 and have done tons of searching for people's export settings and have tried all of what ive found but none have helped. mostly i hear h.264 for codec and target/max bitrate at 5-10 / 10-30.. lots of variation there but either way, nothing works. doesnt matter what level i put it at, even at 5.1..
looking for export setting for a clean master cut thats not going to be 7gb for a 1 minute thing that will play back on my computer..
to make it short - how do i export to get clean blacks/dark areas and smooth fades?? THANKS

>My movies are in native MOD files. I convert em by simply changing the extension to mpg
You are starting with compressed files... and then you compress again... that is a DOUBLE hit on quality
You might try some other software (no, I don't know which one) to edit your files and export without re-compressing

Export settings for RealMedia

Hello everybody
I use PR Pro 1.5 and I created a short video (a collection of .avi source files that lasts no longer than 4 mn) that I need to export in various formats :
WMP and RealMedia for the web, and then AVI, QT and MPEG1 for cdroms, Knowing that the video is meant to be seen by a large audience, and that the original avi files properties are as follows : 720*576, audio rate=1024 kbps, 16 bits, PCM and video image rate 25/s, 29200kbps.
I am really new to all the concepts regarding audio and video codecs, time frame, bit rate etc. so I am a bit at a loss with the export settings.
So far, for each of these formats, my guess would be as shown below :
RealMedia for the web : export / adobe media encoder
codec : "RM9 NTSC download "32"," 62", "128" or "256 "? I don’t know which to choose or why. And just because 256 seems familiar, this is what I would select.
a- for the “Band width” I’d pick up the “56 dial-up” settings because of the large audience it is aiming at, ..
b- as for the “band width rate” I can choose between “variable” (average or high quality) or “continuous”, I’d pick “variable (average) because of the diversity of the audience connectivity
c- and then I have to choose the rate values (default values go from 700 max to 200 average), and here I really have no idea,
d- Then I have two drop down menus (for video and audio), first for a voice codec : there aren’t any voice on my video, so I’d pick the lowest value = 5kbps, second for a music codec : there’s a mp3 soundtrack on my video (rate: 200kbps, 2(stereo) and 44KHz), so I’d go for the “176kbps stereo music” selection in the drop down list, but I keep wondering why not “176 kbps audio surrounding”, or maybe it could be a lower or a higher rate.
e- and then again, I have the same two drop down menus (but this time for video only). Basically for the voice codec I’d make the same selection as above for both the voice and music codec.
a-In the video panel, I can decide to change the dimensions of the images. Default is set to 320*340, but my original files are 720*576. So should I change the default settings to match the real dimension of the images ? If I do so, will that increase the weight of my video and as a consequence the duration of download for the internet users ? Maybe I shouldn’t consider this as it should be a streaming video, … then the weight doesn’t really matter, and I can go for the 720*576 resolution. Except I’ve read somewhere that most servers that host videos are not dedicated to streaming, so in the end, the weight does matter for most internet users wishing to watch a video. … Shouldn’t I on the contrary leave the default dimensions as they are ?
b- and the in the next drop down menu I have to choose the video compression : “Real Video 9” or “Real Video 8” or “Real Video G2”. So … So G2 rings a bell somehow related to servers specializing in streaming (maybe I am completely wrong here … sorry). So I’d pick up that one to ensure that my video will be streamed. Then as an afterthought, as the total length of my video lasts no longer than 4 mn, maybe I can afford any of the two other options in the drop down menu. But which one is best ?
Jeez, this is a lot ! I’ll come back later on with my other formats and check if anybody is brave enough to answer !
Thanks in advance anyway

Please help with highest quality export settings...

I have searched the forum and web for hours (no joke!) and I am still trying to figure out what are the best video settings to give me the highest HD quality video in daylight. I am using a Canon HF200 and the latest updated version of FCE. My problem is that I am unable to produce an HD quality video at 1920 x 1080 Full HD without being "jagged". I have two questions; what do you suggest to be the best FCE import and export settings to produce the best HD video, and what settings do you have your HF200 set to (for normal daylight conditions), to produce the best HD video file? The file will be played directly thru my computer to a plasma HDTV.
I have tried several settings, but using anything above 1280x720 16:9, makes the video "jagged". Again, I don't care about the size of the file or how long it takes, I just want the best. Is there something I am missing?
My FCP settings are the following:
I log and transfer the video from the camera into FCP (on a black MacBook; 2.16 GHz with 4 GB RAM) using the AVCHD Apple Intermediate Codec 1920 x 1080i source. I then export the video using the following:
Export using "Quicktime Conversion".
Quicktime options video settings are:
Frame Rate set to "Current"
Key Frames set to every "24" frames
Compressor quality: "best" (Encoding set to "best quality")
Data Rate set to "automatic"
Quicktime options video size are:
"HD 1280 x 720 16:9" (anything higher produces the jags!)
Deinterlace source video is NOT checked
My Canon HF 200 settings are the following:
- P mode
- FXP (17 Mbps)
- 60i framerate
all others are set to the normal default
I have read some reports saying the above is good and others suggesting changing FXP to MXP (24 Mbps) and/or the framerate from 60i to PF30. I don't care about the size of the file, I just want the highest quality HD file.
Any suggestions for the best FCE settings and/or HF200 settings would be very much appreciated!
Thanks for your help,
Evan

Thanks again for the feedback
Let me try my best to answer the above (I'm new at all this and I appreciate you guys taking the time to try and help me out).
First off, I tried rendering and that did not help.
Here is my sequence. I am not going into FCE from the camera directly. I have archived the video file from the camera using iMovie (as well as just making an exact copy of the camera files; they both appear to me to be the exact same, both can be logged and transferred into FCE, and both files give me a jagged FCE result).
Once I log and transfer the file(s), I then take the clip and add it to a sequence file (rendering or not rendering the clip(s) at this point does not make a difference), and then click/highlight the sequence file in the browser and export it.
As for "editing the video in a 1920x1080i60 sequence", I think I am. I am not doing any editing to the clip. It is logged and transferred using the AVCHD Apple Intermediate Codec 1920 x 1080i and then exported using either as a Quicktime Movie or Quicktime Conversion (set for 1920 x 1080 using H.264 compression; both ways still result in a jagged video).
That's about it...log and transfer, add clip to sequence, and then export sequence...
I hope this answers the above, but if not, I apologize; I'm still learning!
Also, if I use iMovie, with similar export (share) settings, I get a non-jagged video (I have tried with deinterlacing and not deinterlacing, and both video results are fine)
Thanks again,
Evan

Default Premiere Settings in Classroom/AD Environment

Hello Adobe Community,
I'm trying to find a way to be able to have customized settings for both sequence settings, preferences, and export in a college lab setting.
I've been able to find ways to "embed" export settings in the main export lists, however I am still trying to find a way to set custom sequence and preference settings on first launch of Premiere. I know these are stored in the user's personal "custom" folder, but is there a way to make it default to any user that may log into that computer?
A little about our setup: Apple OS X platform (10.10), students log in using their campus Active Directory credentials, using Adobe Creative Cloud.
I am aware of the "sync settings" feature in CC 2014, however that would not work in our environment due to the fact that we have a campus site license, not a individual department license.
Thank you in advance for your help and insight.

I moved your post to the Legacy Application Development SDKs forum as I suspect that since you are using the reports in a 3rd party Progress app, the APIs used will belong to the Report Designer Component.
I believe all of the issues you describe, are resolved in CR XI Release 2 (11.5), Service Pack 6. You will have to get hold of the creators of the app and get them to help you upgrade to CR XI R2. Please note that you can not do the upgrade. The application will have to be recompiled with the correct Service Pack and the developer of the app will then have to release that to you as well as the CR XI R2 SP 6 runtime.

Best export settings for HD video to DVD

hello, I now use premier pro cs5, from cs4 on my mac, love it, but I shoot with a cannon XL H1s HD video, my questiion is when viewing video from camera or on the screen in cs5, perfect hd picture, but when I export to DVD, i see in the media encoder if I choose mpeg2-DVD it goes output to 720x480, how do I export to dvd for the best HD seetings for DVD to get a HD playback on the DVD, now I see an OK video on the TV playback, but not the same as the original recording, can anyone help,, thanks in advance for any help.....

I found (via a friend who is experienced in Pr & En) that it all comes down to the export/authoring settings.
In Pr, my export settings needed to be adjusted as follows:
Format: MPEG2-DVD
Preset: PAL Progressive Widescreen High Quality
Selected 'DVD' in the Basic Settings section of the
Multiplexer tab (this creates a single mpeg file rather than a m2v file which has a separate video and audio file)
Selected the highest possible quality (5) in the Basic Video Settings section of the Video tab, changed the TV Standard to PAL (to suit Australian TVs) and then
Set the minimum/target/maximum bitrate settings to 8Mbps (when I set it at 9Mbps, the final file had too high a bitrate for DVD)
In the Audio tab, I selected PCM as the audio type.
I also ensured that the Use Maximum Render Quality checkbox was ticked at the bottom of the export settings window.
Then I exported.
Once encoding was complete I opened Encore, started a new project, selected DVD as the authoring mode and PAL as the Television Standard within the Basic settings for the new project. I then imported the final mpeg file as a timeline into Encore, set all the appropriate first play/title button/end play functions as necessary, then I opened the Edit Quality Presets window from the File menu and made the following settings;
Format: MPEG2-DVD
Presets: PAL DV High quality 8Mb CBR 1 Pass
Basic Video Settings - Quality: set to maximum (5)
Basic Video Settings - Field Order: None (Progressive)
Basic Video Settings - Pixel Aspect Ratio: Widescreen 16:9
Basic Video Settings - Bitrate Settings - Bitrate [Mbps]: set to maximum (9)
Basic Audio Settings - Audio Format Settings: Audio Format: PCM
click OK
Then I authored the DVD and was quite pleased with the result. Still not quite to the quality I was hoping for (i.e. the quality of a DVD movie), but still a significant improvement on my initial attempts using default Pr & En settings.
Hope it helps

Can I save custom export settings in QuickTime Pro?

I'm using QuickTime Pro a lot to export/convert many different projects, but every time I need to change the export settings, because there is no way to save them inside QuickTime
I've found a description on how to do it wil Apple Script: http://lists.apple.com/archives/QuickTime-Users/2002/Nov/msg00295.html
But the problem is that it needs to run also Apple script to actually perform the export, and I don't want it - I'm not a scripter, and I need the settings to be easy to load.
I thoigh there is some prefs folder, where QT actually stores those default presets, where I can put some custom ones, but I didn't find such a folder...
Is there any way to do it?
Thanks

QuickTime can only view WMP (Windows Media Player) files with third party software help:
http://flip4mac.com
To use Pro to export these files to QuickTime formats you'll need to pay for the upgrades at Flip4Mac.
Not all WMP files are supported.

Default Optimize Settings?

Whenever I open FW CS4, it automatically has GIF in the Optimize pane. Of course if I open another file format it will change but when I scan in images, they get opened as .gif images by default even though I set the file type as jpg in the scanner settings. How can I get FW CS4 to default to jpg 80%, as this is most often the settings I wish to save to. Currently I have to keep opening the image preview to change them or change them in the Optimize pane each time. It's becoming a drag and I wish there was a way of defaulting to something other than GIF Web 216. Is there a way???

Hi,
I am not sure you can change default setting for optimization in Fireworks...
However, Fireworks is quite intelligent and I scan often using it, and then export as PNG32 (best quaility) or JPG @ 90%, etc.
How do you perform a scan? Maybe you should do the scan directly from Fireworks.
My suggestion is the following: Open Fireworks. File > Scan > Twain Acquire... The Scan dialog (of your scanner) will open at this point, I suppose. Preview/Scan the image. Close the scan dialog. At this point you will have the scanned file open in Fireworks, but not exported yet to any format! Ctrl+shift+X > Image Preview dialog will open. Select any format you like at this point -- JPG 90%, or JPG 80%, or PNG24/32, etc. and then export the file.
Should work pretty well. Also, you can have the Optimize panel open in Fireworks. Simply pre-define your export settings, scan, then again ctrl+shift+X and export...
You can also scan multiple documents in Fireworks. When ready, close the scane dialog, then export the files...
Hope this helps!

Default Export Presets completely vanished

Hi all;
I was busy exporting images for a project, and when I went back to export another, all the default export presets were suddenly gone - all that is left in that box is something called untitled with all the settings set at 0. How do I get them back? Where did they go? Is it a view options problem or something more serious? Do I need to re-install Aperture to get them back? I would just make up my own preset, but I know diddly about gamma and color stuff etc. etc.
Thanks to all in advance!

Hi!
I figured this one out by calling Mac support. I couldn't say exactly what they guided me through, but I did have to go to applications - library and delete some presets plists. All is good now.

Best export settings in iMovie for later import to iDVD

Hello,
I've created a few iMovie projects that I've put on DVD using the Share To iDVD option.
I have a few different projects that I want to put on one DVD. What are the best export settings in iMovie to create files that I can later import using iDVD?
Cheers

I would sugest using the Apple defaults - which you will get if you use SHARE/Export Movie.
It is possible to infinitely tweak the parameters by using SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME, but in my experience, you are not likely to visibly improve quality. However, you might be able to get more compression(i.e. a smaller file size) at nearly the same quality.
However, there is no harm in experimenting if you like.
You should use Movie to QuickTime Movie. Click Options. Generally, set the video codec to h.264. If space is not an issue, you can use Apple Intermediate Codec instead, but only if you are going to edit the movie some more. For a final movie, use h.264.
For frame rate, use automatic or 24 frames, but you can use fewer and see if it imporves quality.
For bit rate, you can use up to 20 Mbps, but 16Mbps is the highest I have gone, and that results in a very large file. With h.264, you can get good results with 10 or even lower. (Note: 10 Mbps = 10,000 Kbps)
Here is the HELP section on this.

Best FCP QT export settings for HD video to Keynote?

I am exporting 3-5 minute long HD video clips shot at 1080i and then deinterlaced in FCP. These short vids will be embedded within Keynote, which is starting to have a problem with these 1gb to 2gb files (when exported at h264.)
HDV already reduces image sharpness it is. I want to keep the quality/footage sharpness up as high as possible. The selected video size ends up being about 1065 x 569, but that is a size, not a sharpness, one of the things I always found confusing when referring to it as "resolution".
So what settings would you suggest when outputting via FCP?

I found (via a friend who is experienced in Pr & En) that it all comes down to the export/authoring settings.
In Pr, my export settings needed to be adjusted as follows:
Format: MPEG2-DVD
Preset: PAL Progressive Widescreen High Quality

Selected the highest possible quality (5) in the Basic Video Settings section of the Video tab, changed the TV Standard to PAL (to suit Australian TVs) and then
Set the minimum/target/maximum bitrate settings to 8Mbps (when I set it at 9Mbps, the final file had too high a bitrate for DVD)
In the Audio tab, I selected PCM as the audio type.
I also ensured that the Use Maximum Render Quality checkbox was ticked at the bottom of the export settings window.

Basic Video Settings - Field Order: None (Progressive)
Basic Video Settings - Pixel Aspect Ratio: Widescreen 16:9
Basic Video Settings - Bitrate Settings - Bitrate [Mbps]: set to maximum (9)
Basic Audio Settings - Audio Format Settings: Audio Format: PCM
click OK
Then I authored the DVD and was quite pleased with the result. Still not quite to the quality I was hoping for (i.e. the quality of a DVD movie), but still a significant improvement on my initial attempts using default Pr & En settings.
Hope it helps

Full HD Export settings for Connect 360 (Xbox)

I have created my first project with imported clips from a Sony HDR-SR5E (Really smooth & easy). I wish to now view these on my 1080 Samsung TV via my connected Xbox 360 (Updated with latest firmware as far as I can tell) to benefit from true 1920x1080 presentation.
I have exported to QT (H.264) with the following movie settings:
Compression: H.264
Quality: High
Key Frame rate: 24
Frame Reordering: Yes
Dimensions: 1920x1080
Connect 360 states that it supports full HD (1920x1080) H.264 in both the MPEG-4 and QuickTime containers (in addition to the previous WMV) & the Xbox support pages suggest it supports the following for H.264:
· File Extensions: .mp4, .m4v, mp4v, .mov
· Containers: MPEG-4, QuickTime
· Video Profiles: Baseline, main, and high (up to Level 4.1) profiles.
· Video Bitrate: 10 Mbps with resolutions of 1920 x 1080 at 30fps. See question number 6 for more information.
· Audio Profiles: 2 channel AAC low complexity (LC)
· Audio Max Bitrate: No restrictions. See question number 6 for more information.
However, and you knew there must be one, when selecting the movie on the Xbox dashboard it will not play stating it is an unsupported format!!!! Arghhhh, denied....
I have played around with a few different settings and the only one I can get to work correctly is by exporting to one of the default export standards i.e. 960x540... Video looks ok but not the superior quality I was hoping for on my 1080 TV.
Has anyone else come across this problem or can suggest any solutions to get full HD from camera to TV?
Thanks in anticipation.

Thanks for the reply, but the Xbox will in fact view MPEG-4, which iMovie can export. The only problem I'm having is with the quality of the output. The quality is in the movie that is exported, not in the Xbox's viewing of the movie - the movie looks just as bad on my Mac mini as it does thru my Xbox...
With experimentation, I think I'm getting closer to my goal...

Default Export settings?
