DNx HD .mov files show video levels incorrectly.

System Mac OSX 10.8.5 Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 release
I have a show that was delivered to me as DNx HD 220x. This is a show that has passed incoming and outgoing vendor QC. SMPTE Bars are present in the header of the file. When imported into Premiere the video levels are being interpreted incorrectly. Blacks are at 32, whites at around 200 (in RGB measurement) or black at 9 ire and white at 92 ire.
When the same files are AMAed into Avid MC 7.0.3, levels are correct. When viewed on external scopes via AJA Control Room, levels are correct.
As I understand it, Premiere is not color managed at this point. Any way to get Premiere to display this file with correct levels?
Thanks,
Jef

Not a direct answer but when I export DNxHD in a mov. wrapper I have to select RGB ( I think that is right, I'm not at my editor at the moment) in the codec settings to get it to look right in a Venice server. The default settings, the levels are too high but it looks ok when reimported into Premiere.

Deleting Movies/TV shows/Videos from the iPhone4

silly question but I'm gonna ask anyway...
i love having everything on my iPhone, but apparently I'm close to capacity.
Call me lazy, but I dont always like to connect my iPhone to my computer. So, if i delete a Movie/TV Show/Video directly from the iPhone, I'm making space, but what happens when i finally connect to iTunes? When I sync, does it delete the movie from iTunes? does it try to reload it back on to the iPhone? Should i stop being so lazy?

As when deleting an app direct from your iPhone, the app will not be deleted from your iTunes library when syncing with iTunes after doing so, and the app will no longer be selected under the Apps tab to be re-installed on your iPhone with the following sync. No iTunes content in your iTunes library is ever deleted when syncing any iDevice.
The same should apply with movies and tv shows. A good way to find out for certain is delete a movie or tv show from your iPhone followed by syncing your iPhone with iTunes. The movie or tv show will definitely not be deleted from your iTunes library and should be deselected under the Movies tab or TV Shows tab.

Mov files dropping video and audio frames CC 2014

I have been experiencing playback issues in Premiere and just got off the phone with Adobe support. It appears that there is known issue with .mov files dropping video and audio frames that will likely be fixed in the next release. My entire project is .mov files and we need to get some serious editing done to complete a rough cut of our film. As a bandaid, we have reverted the playback renderer to software only and I am experimenting with different preview file formats to see if I will have less dropped frames. I want to avoid converting my media from mov files at all costs as this would be very time consuming with over 100 hours of footage.
Please let me know if you have any other workarounds!

Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately, MOV can hold all sorts of "stuff." See this article for some more detail: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/440037?tstart=0
Can you let us know what is inside that MOV "wrapper?"

HT4053 how do i move files from videos to photos si i can send them via whatsapp etc

how do i move files from videos to photos si i can send them via whatsapp etc

What is it then? How and what exactly do i use it for? My i pad says there is not enough storage available so i have purchased more in i cloud. I now want to save some TV programmes and films to i cloud to free up some space but don't know how to... When you are told there is not enough space to download you are prompted to go to settings and to purchase more storage - so it is not unreasonable to assume that this will solve the problem - or am I missing something here? Or is this just a way for apple to get money out of me?
If this is not what it is meant for then what is it meant for? Is it just space to back up files to? If so then surely what i need is stored there - so i can delete the TV programmes from my i pad and grab them from i cloud later?
Am rather perplexed...

Why don't my imported movie files show in iMovie?

I have a frustrating problem, and I don't know what to do. Sometimes when I import a movie file (usually a dv file) into iMovie, it doesn't show up. If I go to my finder, however, and look in the coresponding event folder, it's there. I can even open it in Quicktime and watch it no problem. It just doesn't show in iMovie when I have iMovie open, therefore I have no way of editing it. Sometimes if I try and import it again, it'll work fine, and sometimes it will only show a portion of the video in my iMovie, while the entire video is seemingly intact in the finder. I have plenty of room on my hard drive for the video. It does this with mov files too sometimes. Is there just a roblem with my iMovie?

This has been driving me barmy as well. I am on early 2011 MacBook Pro unibody, Lion OSX10.7.4. Clicking 'import' and navigating to the movie file just would not work. Why oh why? Your answers about showing 'all clips' in the event window or iMovie marking them as rejected were not relevant. Also these are movie clips I have put on my hard disk from my phone, they have not come through iPhoto.
Despair. No forums hold the answer. Until I remembered a Microsoft glitch in Lion that I just found out yesterday. (Does anybody else think that Lion is actually all downsides from 10.6.8? I haven't yet found a single thing that makes it better, and loads of things that make it worse. And I waited a year to 'upgrade'). Exel files with a '/' in the filename give you this infuriating message saying they are in use by another user. Er... doh, no other users are connected, no one else even knows these files exist, never mind uses them at the same time. Magic: Delete the '/' from the filename, and hey presto all is fine.
EXACT SAME THiNG with iMovie files. I took the '/' out of the filename and import now works fine. There you are. Yet another bit of Lion poop.

.mov files no video but has sound in premiere pro cs6

I know this isn't adobe. However, all of my .mov files play with no video in quicktime, premiere pro cs6, and sony vegas 9. I've looked into the missing codec, and quicktime brings me to the general page with multiple codecs listed. This happens with two different types of cameras. Both HD. I have Windows 7. Does anyone know why the files won't play video? Thanks.

jon - no idea why you were such a snarky SOB in your reply. person was just asking for some help. obviously stuck and could use some advise. you could have chosen to ask a few clarifying questions to see if additional info could be gleaned. instead you CHOSE to be mean. NOT COOL. if you hate being a support person, dont offer your help and dont go online. otherwise, change your attitude.
If you feel my comments were inappropriate, then feel free to report my post as such. If you feel the information was incorrect, then please provide what you feel to be more correct information. The object of my comments was to 1) point out that no accurate solution was possible without amplifying information, 2) inform the individual why more information was needed, and 3) describe at least three methods for getting the required information. It was not my intent to be either "mean" or "cool" but rather to teach the individual how to analyize their video content in order to become more self-sufficient in the future. Perhaps if you concentrated more on the content of my response than on your emotional interpretations of what you think was implied, you might find something of value.
My question for you is,"Did you actually create a new profile tonight to hide your normal identity while you berate my response?"
for lordrebeccasama - there are people out there that would like to help. I would suggest you try to get answers to some of these questions and post - people may have some ideas: Does this problem occur with all MOV files or just certain ones. if just certain ones, can you ell which camera or source produced the file? can you see if the files can be played on other machines (like another PC or a MAC)? if you can, try to get into the properties of the MOV file (the container) and see if you can tell how it was encoded. good luck - and on behalf of all people that actually like to help, i apologize on behalf of jon.
Since you have essentially asked for the same information I did, albeit in a more indirect manner, I don't feel any apology is needed on my behalf.

Why is an mov file showing up as a black screen with only audio?

I am importing a mov file into elements 11 and it is only showing up as a black screen with audio. The clip will play in other programs on my computer but is not importing into elements 11. The file was created on my panisonic camera. I am pretty new to video editting and am quite frusterated. I'm assuming it is some sort of codec issue but don't know how to proceed.

Saving movie files for video I Pod

I hope you can help me with an issues of trying to save a home movie into the right format so that I can transfer the movie to my new I pod video. I have been trying to use Final Cut Pro Express HD to save the movie file. I saved the file as m4v file. Was able to drag it into the I tunes library but I was not able to drag the file from the library and into the I Pod.
Can I use Final Cut Pro Express to save the right format? How do I get it into my I Pod?
Thanks,
Steve

Bill,
I was finally able to save a movie in FCE and get it in 5g I Pod. I frist saved the file in FCE as a I pod file an m4v. "Export" and then "Video for iPod".
The video is not only exported as a .m4v file
but is also sized correctly for playback on the the iPod (320x240).
Drag the file into the i Tunes library. After dragging the video file to the iTunes library you have to add it to an existing playlist or create a new playlist for it, the same way you do for music. Create a new playlist file, video,and drag it in.
The last step was the part i was missing.
If you manually manage your audio files, you must manually manage your videos. If your iPod automatically updates your audio files, you must choose one of the two automatic update options for video or choose not to update videos.
Open iTunes 6 and drag your new movie file icon to the iTunes library in the Source list. To learn how to browse and view videos in iTunes, click here. Note: iTunes won't let you drag the movie to the Video playlist, but once you drag it to the Library, it will automatically appear in the Video playlist. You can also drag the video file to a playlist you create. I was not able to drag the file from the library to my I Pod which I have heard more than once that you can. So try that.
Here is a site that will help.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302509
I would recommend taking a look at the current Mac Pro Podcast where they have a demo showing the steps to getting video converted to the iPod format.
(http://www.bclip.com/macpro/MacProPodcast13.m4v) I was not able to drag the file out of my library and into my ipod.

How to use .mov files for video in Flash...

Hello-
I am trying to use .mov files for my Flash videos. I know it uses .mp4/flv/f4v, but I really need to use .movs. I know this works... but how?
Suggestions?

unfortunately running it through Adobe Encoder makes it a much, much larger file and the quality goes out the window. i really need to use .mov.
any suggestions?

How can I keep the file size small when I render a .mov file to video in PS entended CS4?

Hi,
I haven't worked with video in Photoshop before and I am having the following issue:
I imported a .mov file into photoshop. I trimmed the file by moving the start and finish points to the relevant points on the timeline. I then cropped the image to get rid of unwanted footage on the edge of the screen. I then selected export - render video. On the panel I chose to select only "currently selected frames" as the range and I chose "Quick Time Movie" as the file type. When I check the properties of my newly rendered movie the file size has increased by several times. The file sizes are now much too large.
I know that I must need to alter some of the render settings but having tried altering many of the settings the result is always the same - a very large file size that is much bigger than my oringinal file.
If anyone can let me know how I can carry out a simple crop & trim on a .mov file and end up with a smaller more compact file after rendering the video I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Hi Marion,
Thanks very much for your message. I have downloaded that program and it's definitely handy for examining the details of the original file. You mentioned in your message about not having to recode the file - The file I'm editing is originally from a Q3 Zoom video recorder and I can use their in-built software (handyware) to trim the file - this doesn't recode the file and so the file size just reduces by the required amount. Unfortunately there is no facility to crop the file with this software - I've looked for other software that would allow cropping without having to recode the file but I haven't found anything suitable for a simple procudure like this - do you know of any software that allows you to crop a file without recoding? Thanks.

1 Movie file has video track for appletv & 1 for iphone

Does anyone know how when you purchase a movie on itunes in HD, you get a beautiful HD movie to watch on your AppleTV that is a fairly large file, but when you choose to sync it to your iphone the movie file is MUCH smaller, made just for the iphone. There are not two files, so I assume the file has 2 video tracks in it and syncing just extracts the smaller file. Any one have insight on this? I'm ripping my own movies and want to create the same thing. Once file with a HD track and an iphone track.

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
When you purchase HD files from itunes you DO get two files.
Quicktime can create multi tracked files but I don't believe they will play on the tv or the ipod. Neither device to my knowledge supports sprites

Movie Files showing 0:00

I recently exported my movie files (.avi) to an external storage disk.
I then deleted them from my computer and now I've tried importing them again and they are all showing the poster frame but they are 0:00
Is there a way to restore them?
Please help

It's a Kingston 4GB memory stick
they are in the same formats as they were when I backed them up (.mov and .avi)
I tried dragging to the desktop and it says the files are each in between 40 and 150 Kb.
It won't play them it just shows the start frame and says they are 0:00
Have I lost them completely?

PPro CS4 - imported .mov file and video playback is jerky

Hi all.
I have imported a Quicktime .mov file into a standard sequence. The audio plays back fine but the video is very jerky.
I did an 'interpret footage' on the clip and see it's at a frame rate of 1.2480.
How can I get this file to play correctly in a PPro sequence at 29.97 FPS?
Help! My deadline is getting close.
Thanks.
Keith

Thanks Bill.
Here's what I could find... I hope it means more to you that to me!!! I see that the average frame rate is 13.58. If I interpret footage and use that rate, 30 second commercial plays in about 5 seconds.
Thanks for the help.

Categorizing Movies, TV Shows & Video Podcasts

Dear Mac Friends,
I was wondering if some one could offer some advise or perhaps offer 3rd Party Software to help organize my iTunes Library more efficiently.
My issues is getting iTunes to recognize the different kinds of Video files that I upload to the Main Library. All Video files by default, are categorized and placed in the "Movies" Library regardless of whether they are TV Shows or Video Podcasts. I download lots of TV shows from my TiVo and would like to place them in the "TV Shows" Library. I know there is not way for iTunes to tell the difference but I should at the very least be able to manually categorize them by what they are. I've tried changing the "Genre" and "Category" to say TV Show it still puts it in the Movies Library.
This becomes problematic and very confusing when trying to Sync them to my iPhone or Video iPod. I don't know if I should chose the Playlist of TV Shows that I created from the "Music" Preference-Pane or if I need to manually select each TV Show Episode from the "Movies" Preference-Pane
Any Advice or Suggestion would be very appreciated.
-ROD

FOLLOW-UP ISSUE:
I have made a number of Smart Playlists for my TV Shows and Video Podcasts. However when I select my Video Podcast Playlists to be sync'd in the iphone/ipod syncing preferences (under the MUSIC tab), they do not sync. Sadly I have to select Podcast independently under the PODCAST tab. This become very difficult when I have 100+ podcasts. I'd much rather be able to select a playlist.
It is interesting that under the VIDEO tab they do allow for TV Show Playlist syncing. I'm guessing this is a common gripe and that it is simply not a feature that has be implemented yet. However, I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion or work-around.
