Direct YouTube HD Settings in Premiere

Does anyone know the default settings in Premiere that's used for direct upload to YouTube with HD (H.264)?
When I do direct upload to YouTube, rendering a 10 min video usually takes only about 1 hour and the upload is about 20-30mins. But if I do manual export, I don't seem to be able to replicate the same results, that is:
1) 1 hour rendering time for a 10 min video on HD
2) 20-30min upload to Youtube.
Thanks guys!

I've given you an FAQ link in your other discussion.

Audio Settings for Premiere CS6

Hi, I currently run a Mac Pro with a 27 inch Apple Monitor with built in camera. The machine is also running Mountain Lion 10.8.5. Could someone give me some clarification as to why the Audio Settings for Premiere CS6 are the way they are?
Example with a Macbook Pro and an iMac when I plug in a headphone I can get the sounds from Premiere pro as well as something from youtube to the headphones. However in the case of the Mac Pro with the Apple Monitor, when the headphones are plugged in the youtube sounds come through but the Premiere sounds go through the monitor. I'm aware of the audio settings but I suspect this is working by design because of the different audio options the Mac Pro have and there is nothing broken about this.
Please advise.
Thank you.

I've always found this a bit annoying.
The intended behaviour is that if you go into Premiere's audio settings, and choose "System Default Input/Output", it should change along with the system (so that the audio comes out wherever YouTube does). In practice, I've found this to be inconsistent in pre-CC versions of Premiere (CC fixes this).
One tip that may be helpful for you in general on a Mac Pro:
1. If you don't already have the volume icon in the menu bar (by the clock), enable that in System Preferences > Sound.
2. Option-click on the icon and you'll get a quick menu of your output options

Is there a way we can edit and improve existing youtube videos by using premiere pro? Just simple changes like having professional looking opening and closing credits?

Assuming you do not have access to the "original" video/project and the YouTube video is the only copy, there is a method. Try "YouTube Downloader" which is a free software that allows you to download clips from YouTube as .mp4 files. You can then edit with Premiere, and re-encode again for upload to YouTube. Just keep in mind that you are re-compressing the video so there will be some quality loss. The better the quality of the original, the better the copy will hold up.

Best Export / Video settings for Premiere Pro. Help Needed.

What's the best settings when you want to export a video from Premiere Pro for the web or otherwise. Best settings = good quality video and LOW file size.
Benchmark : The videos on Apple Trailers. Check them out at http://www.apple.com/trailers
The trailers are of high quality video, great sounds, and the Large sizes all fall under the 25MB mark. Any ideas on HOW this is done and what
settings in Premiere Pro CS3 might be able to replicate such standards?
Any help is appreciated. I normally use Encoder and export using H264 but that always seems to have an Audio lag. Any similar issues?
Thanks a mil!

I understand that better quality = bigger file size. That's true in most cases, but there is a way around it, I'm just not sure what that way is. As I mentioned in the original post, the benchmark is http://www.apple.com/trailers . The non-HD videos on any movie page on that site hardly ever exceeds the 25MB mark. The videos are 2-3minutes long, and while they may not be top-notch BD visuals, they look way better than 95% of the stuff that's streamed off the net.
That's why I asked if anyone had any ideas on how to replicate something like that. Say I had a avi file of great quality, shot with a Panasonic DV Cam. I Capture the footage, do whatever I have to in Pr, and the result is now a 3minute video. I want it exported to a Quicktime file, I want it to look visually pleasing like the trailers on Apple, and I want it to fall under 25MB. I have tried H.264 encoding, regular Quicktime, and Quicktime via Encoder. Nothing reaches the expected quality.
For more examples visit http://www.passionpictures.com.my/pages/recent.aspx and download those simple 30second clips. All Quicktime, mostly under 5.5MB. If Pr can't do it, then I don't know what can...so I'm sure Pr can do it.
Problem is, how? Experimentation is definitely a way to go, I get that. But on the basis of the scenario given above...how is it done?

The quality of the footage is lost when I use certain settings in Premiere Pro CS6

Hello ,
   I filmed footage on a Canon XA10. They are MTS files and the codecs are 1440x 1080, frame rate 29.97, H264- MPEG- 4AVC, input nitrate 9854, and stream nitrate is 8971
I need to submit them as application samples for a job. The job requires certain settings to be used.
for HD 1080i the application sample should be 960 x 540 @ 29.97
they have other settings, like NTSC should be 320 x 243 @ 29.97
With one file I filmed rain and in the original file it's clear and the quality it really good. I export using the settings H.264 and Apple TV, iPad, iPhone 4 or newer - 960 x 540 29.97
under basic video settings is
    width 960
    height 540
frame rate 29.97
After exporting it the .mp4 file came out pixelated and the image quality is much lower.
I had another problem with a file shot with the same camera and the same codecs (MTS files and the codecs are 1440x 1080, frame rate 29.97 ect.)
It was footage that I had to speed up, after exporting it came out shaky. When I export with the 1440 x 1080 settings it's not shaky, but I need it to be 960 x 540. I can't turn in shaky footage.
What am I doing wrong and how can I get footage that is acceptable for submission?

Here is an example of how much quality is lost..

Right sequence and export settings in Premiere Pro CS6, video with still images

I am trying to run a video on my website (self hosted). This video, made with Premiere Pro CS6, consists of still images with different video effects.
This video is only 50 seconds, but when I transform this in the ogg, webm and mp4 format, I obtain file with large size and the quality is not good.
Could you please guide me to find out the right sequence and export settings in Premiere Pro CS6 to obtain a video for the best possible quality on the web?
A precise description of the settings would be awesome.
Thank you

Make the export setting the resolution you want to use on the web.
Make the sequence settings accordantly to these export settings

Avid keyboard settings in Premiere 6

I am trying to use the Avid keyboard settings in Premiere 6. I have gotten a few to work, but some, particularly CUT, command X, is not working. I have tried this on a two machines on different sequences.
Has anyone had any success using the Avid keyboard settings?

I have been struggling with this for a few days now, working around the fact that I could not get a keystroke to "cut".
With some help from fellow editors, I think I have figured this out.
My mistake was thinking that "cut" (command X) under the file menu should actually do something on the timeline. It does not. What you really want is to program "extract" as a keyboard stroke. On Avid, it is "x". On Premiere, it is the apostrophe. I am guessing that "cut" applies to text on clips or bins, not editing on the timeline. What is even more confusing is that the other commands under the "edit" menu (copy, paste, paste insert) work on the timeline. Not very logical in my opinion.
Hope this helps someone else struggling with this problem.

Best Youtube upload settings? Elements 11

Hi, I uploaded a video to Youtube straight from elements 11. I put the pre settings as 1080p HD, and it uploaded successfully, but the first part of the video is really poor quality, even after changing the youtube video settings to 1080p. After about 45 seconds it goes back to better quality. Does anyone know why it's done this? Or is it an issue with my computer? Here's the link to the video, I don't know if it goes from good to bad quality with anyone else...

oh ok that's great then, didn't want people watching my videos thinking "what, this girl shot her video with a potato?" :'D

Best quality AUDIO for Youtube - what settings do you use from Premiere?

I heard that if you render straight out to FLV then upload it to Youtube, Youtube will not convert the Stereo audio to Mono lower quality. It will retain exactly the same audio settings as you rendered out.
However, if you use MP4 or something else, it will render it down to Mono lower quality.
I want to make sure my audio is Stereo at least 256K MP3.
Any comments?

I can't upload to youtube, authorization problem on Premiere Elements 9 and 12.

What the hell do I do? Can someone explain this in an understandable way. As simply and specific as possible without sounding all mumbo jumbo technical?

Dave
Remember this is a user to user forum and not Adobe. If you have problems here, then contact Adobe direct. Don't bite the non Adobe salaried helpers.
The answers are in the details. And, I am going to ask for details as straight forward as possible. And, please excuse questions which seek to gather the information that you alone have.
1. Is this a "it worked before or not now problem" or "it never worked before". If it worked before, how long ago?
2. Have you checked the integrity of your Internet connection and settings?
3. To check the integrity of your YouTube account, please export your Timeline as a .mov or .mp4 file and save it to hard drive. From the hard drive upload it to YouTube at the YouTube web site. Does that upload succeed?
4. If you sign into YouTube at the YouTube web site, minimize that window, open Premiere Elements and try the Online/YouTube route, does that impact the issue?
5. Are you having any other problems with the performance of these two versions except for the Online/YouTube?
If need be, I will offer to do uploads from Online/YouTube on my Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and 12 to verify that Adobe and/or YouTube is not asleep at the switch.
Can you help me help you?
Thanks.

Having problems signing into youtube from my adobe premiere elements 9

I recently changed my google password and I can sign in directly to youtube, but when I try to sign into my youtube account via premiere elements, it tells me that my username and password don't match. Can someone assist? Thanks

I don't know that we can help you sign into YouTube, kerasmom.
But worse case, you can create your video and upload it manually, per the FAQs to the right of this forum. In fact, some people prefer doing it this way because of the improved quality!

Need advice on encode settings for Premiere file to be played back on DVD

Hi - hoping someone can help me with my encoding settings. I seem to be on the right track because everything looks good until you play the video on DVD.
I use Windows Movie Maker to encode my exports to DVD. This software does not accept MP4 but it seems to accept a variety of other files and one is WMV. I first exported a WMV clip from Premiere at 1920x1080 (the raw video and graphics are also in that size). Then I exported another WMV clip to 1280x720. I just wanted to see what both of them look like on a DVD during play back.
Here are the export settings:
Here is what the1280 WMV looks like when it's played back on my desktop computer in Windows Media player. As you'll see everything looks very clean:
I then imported the 2 WMV clips into Windows Movie Maker, selected the 16:9 settings, and it encoded them into a finished DVD. I then played the DVD back on my 50 inch TV in my living room. Below you'll see a photo I took of the 1920 clip; notice how the text looks jagged:
Then the photo below of the 1280 clip looks much cleaner.
But obviously I'd like for the finished DVDs to look if possible even cleaner than the 1280 photo above - hopefully like it looks in the photo of the WMV playing back on my computer. These videos will be distributed to different local offices.
Are my WMV settings correct? Should I export to other than WMV? How can I improve on the 1280 DVD photo above so everything looks even cleaner (if possible)? I have Adobe Encore - should I use that instead of Movie Maker?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

A DVD is 720x480 so anything larger must be scaled down to be legal according to the DVD specification

MAC PRO TO LGTV WITH WI-FI DIRECT. MAC SETTINGS?

My mac finds the TV but TV can't find Mac. What settings do I need on Mac and how do I set them.
I would like to connnect Mac to TV wirelessly.

Hi Sabretooth04,
Thank for the link to the HP LaserJet Pro 300/400 Color User Guide. I have already downloaded the PDF of the User Guide and have it safely stored in the "Documents" folder on my main hard drive. I have made searches within the document looking for information about securing the wireless WiFi connection on the HP LaserJet Pro 300/400 Color. I have not found the answer I was looking for.
You directed me to page 43 in the HP LaserJet Pro 300/400 Color User Guide (document number c02663889). Unfortunetely those instructions are for installing a Windows wireless network. I do not have a Windows computer. I have an Apple iMac computer. I apologize for not being clear enough about the computer I'm using.
My Apple iMac shows me all the Wi-Fi networks that are within range of my Apple iMac. Most of the networks are password protected / secure / locked (meaning next to the name of the newtwork there is a padlock symbol) My HP 64 LaserJet 400 Color appears in the list of Wi-Fi networks and it is not secure or does not have a padlock symbol next to the name (HP 64 LaserJet 400 Color). This tells me that anyone within the range of the printer could wirelessly send a document to my printer to be printed. I don't kow why someone would want to do that but my experience is there are evil people that don't have anything better to do than cause disruption and mayhem and an unlocked printer is an invitation to send a 250 page document to my unsecured/not password protected/unlocked HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color Printer and use up all my paper and towner.
So I do I secure my HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color Printer with a password so someone cannot access the printer wirelessly and print a 250 page document when I'm not home?
Thank you.

How do I pick the right settings for Premiere Elements 10?

I have Adobe Premiere Elements 10 and want to edit videos that I had received from a company that transferred my Super 8 home videos to digital format and saved them on an external hard drive. They have avi file extension, Apple Motion JPEG A codec , frame size: 1920 x 1080, pixel aspect ratio: 16:9, Frames per second: 29.97. I am not sure what settings to select for the best picture quality. I have tried some and the quality is poor. I need help. Thanks

Unfortunately, you can not edit MJPEG videos in Premiere Elements, Editer.
Actually, some people can. It depends on your machine. But for the most part, it won't go -- and there's no guarantee that even installing that codec will make it. (But you can try. Just install your camera's software -- which sometimes works.)
The wisest solution is to convert the file to a DV-AVI using a program like MPEG Streamclip, as discussed in this FAQ.

How do you change project settings on Premiere Elements 12?

I have Premiere Elements 12. When I view a DVD I created of wedding photos, the edges of people and objects are jagged and generally the photos appear blurry. On my old Premiere Elements 8, I did not have this problem - the pictures on DVDs were clear and sharp. When checking the project setting on Premiere 8, the project settings for Capture was DV which changed all my settings for General and Rendering project settings. On my new Premiere 12, the Capture setting is HDV and I cannot get the General and Rendering settings to change when I change the Capture setting to DV. The online help from Adobe says to correct this, "In the New Project dialog box, click Change Settings," but when I start a new project in Premiere 12, "Adobe Premiere Element Editor" is the only dialogue box that shows and I cannot see a change setting button. Does anyone know how I can change my project settings so that when I select DV it will change all the presets for the General and Video Rendering settings?

jacquelinebaker
The party line is that you cannot change project settings once the project settings have been set. You need to start a new project.
Edit Menu/Project Settings/General does not offer the opportunity for any significant project settings change in this type of situation.
I have discovered that, under certain circumstances, that the user can change the established project preset without starting a new project.
The approach to doing this involves editing the Notepad document of the saved closed project file (project.prel file). I have written about this in the following blog post.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/05/pe11-changing-project-settings-without.html
You need to weigh the pros and cons of going through the procedure or just starting a new project and start the project again.
All of the above being said, on to setting to the correct project preset to match the properties of your source media. Please refer to the issues involved and how to set manually the project preset when the program is not doing the job correctly or best automatically.

To the specifics...if you are doing DV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 12 Capture Window, the scenario would be...
a. Open Premiere Elements 12 to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings. In Change Settings,
change the project preset to NTSC DV Standard or NTSC DV Widescreen depending on NTSC or PAL set up and 4:3 or 16:9 DV data source. Then before you exit that area, make sure to place a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project" in
the new project dialog. Exit that area and return to the Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace for your Add Media/DV Capture selection.
If you are doing HDV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 12 Capture Window, then same scenario except the project preset change involves NTSC HDV HDV 1080i30 (if NTSC). In this instance, the Edit Menu/Project Settings/General should look like
Please review and consider and then let me know if I have targeted you question or need clarification.
