Editing 1440x1080i ProRes in Premiere

Are there any problems editing 1440x1080i ProRes in Premiere?  A colleague today mentioned that he thought it wasn't a good idea for ProRes not to be full raster for editing. Thoughts?

No benefit over native, only three times the storage requirements and the time to convert, plus the extra disk I/O requirements. Summary: A waste of time and resources.

  • Video editing & playback issues: Adobe Premiere Elements 8

    Hello all,
    I have made several attempts at transfering HD video  files from my camcorder to my PC and then editing.
    When I try to play the transferred file, it is a little choppy and then gets worse as I edit it.
    Here are my specs/config:
    System:
    HP Pavilion a6720y
    Windows Vista 64 bit
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 440
    AMD Phenon 9550 Quad Core 2.2Ghz
    6GB RAM
    640GB SATA drive, 7200 rpm
    Camera:
    Sony HDR-XR150
    Editing Software:
    Adobe Premiere Elements 8
    I copy the video files from the camcorder to the computer via USB 2.0.
    When I connect the camera directly to the TV the video plays without any issues.  So I know the AVCHD files are "good" and I suspect they are also possibly "good" on my hard drive, but just cannot be played or edited appropriately for some reason.
    One input I received was that due to the nature of AVCHD files, I should convert the video to "I-frame codec" and then edit.  Can Adobe Premiere Elements do this?
    Any other thoughts/ideas?
    Thanks for any help.

    I edit AVCHD (with PPro) with THREE hard drives
    My 3 hard drives are configured as...
    1 - 320Gig Boot for Win7 64bit Pro and all program installs
    2 - 320Gig data for Win7 swap file and video project files
    When I create a project on #2 drive, the various work files follow,
    so my boot drive is not used for the media cache folder and files
    3 - 1Terabyte data for all video files... input & output files (*)
    (*) for 4 drives, drive 3 all source files & drive 4 all output files

    Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
    You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
    Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
    You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
    A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
    You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
    I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
    Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing

    A USB3 hard drive connected to a motherboard with USB3 is supposed to be fast enough for video editing (I don't have such, so don't know) but eSata DOES have a fast enough data transfer for video editing... I have not used the eSata Dock below... for reference only, YMMV and all the usual disclaimers

  • Plan for editing rig to learn Premiere Pro, AE & Photoshop

    I am building an video editing rig to learn Premiere, After Effects and Photoshop with a view to producing web based corporate videos and some project ideas I’ve had percolating. Original video will be shot DSLR & GoPro. ‘Back in the day’ (think  1” & Betacam SP tape…), I produced broadcast quality corporates,  TVCs and TV programs, but that was before raising kids and a spouses’ career took precedence. Money is tight (divorce & still raising 5 kids), so I plan to build up my editing rig in stages. I’ve built a few low to medium spec gaming rigs, so initially to learn the software, I’ll upgrade one of the gaming rigs to minimum editing spec (Version 1), then upgrade a bit further to a Version 2 rig, and if things pan out as planned (and I can start earning a more little income), I can then justify the investment in a proper workstation based around a 3930K CPU or whatever its equivalent is then.
    Existing mid spec gaming rig:
    CPU - 2500K
    Mobo – ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
    RAM – 2 x 4GB 1600Mhz
    GPU – HD7850
    C: SSD – SanDisk Extreme 120GB - OS & Programs
    D: HDD 1 – 1TB Samsung Spinpoint F1 - HD103UJ 7200rpm - Users
    E: HDD 2 – 2TB Seagate Barracuda - ST2000DM003 7200rpm - Media
    PSU – HX650W Corsair
    Mid Tower Case with front USB 3.0
    OS Win7HP
    Version 1 Editing Rig basically takes the Gaming Rig, replaces the HD7850 with a GTX 660 to take advantage of CUDA, as OpenCL does not yet seem to offer as much performance advantage as CUDA. I’ll also upgrade the RAM from 2 x 4GB to a 2 x 8GB kit and add 2 x 1TB 7200rpm HDD in Raid 0 and a Cooler Master Hyper 212X to keep things temps down, as I plan to OC the 2500K.
    Version 1 Editing Rig:
    CPU - 2500K
    Mobo – Asrock Z77 Extreme 4
    RAM – 2 x 8GB 1600Mhz (G.Skill Ares F3-1600C10D-16GAO)
    GPU – GTX 660 (Gigabyte GV-N660OC-2GD)
    C: SSD – SanDisk Extreme 120GB - OS, Programs, Pagefile
    D: HDD 1 – 1TB Samsung Spinpoint F1 - HD103UJ 7200rpm – Media, Projects
    E: HDD 2 – 2 x 1TB Seagate – ST1000DM003 7200rpm - RAID 0 – Previews, Media Cache
    F: HDD 3 - 2TB Seagate Barracuda - ST2000DM001 7200rpm – Export, Backup of raid
    PSU – HX650W Corsair
    Case: Mid Tower with front USB 3.0
    OS - Win7HP
    Version 2 Editing Rig adds a 3770K CPU, Windows 7 Pro and another 2 X 8GB RAM to total 32GB. Around this time I also plan to add a 27” WQHD IPS monitor.
    Version 2 Editing Rig:
    CPU - 3770K
    Mobo - ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
    RAM – 32GB - 4 x 8GB 1600Mhz (G.Skill Ares F3-1600C10D-16GAO)
    GPU – GTX 660 (Gigabyte GV-N660OC-2GD)
    C: SSD – SanDisk Extreme 120GB - OS, Programs, Page File
    D: HDD 1 – 1TB Samsung Spinpoint F1 - HD103UJ 7200rpm – Media, Projects
    E: HDD 2 – 2 x 1TB Seagate Barracuda – ST1000DM003 7200rpm - RAID 0 – Previews, Media Cache
    F: HDD 3 - 2TB Seagate Barracuda - ST2000DM001 7200rpm – Export, Backup of Raid
    PSU – HX650W Corsair
    Case: Mid Tower with front USB 3.0
    OS - Win7Pro
    I’m still a bit confused about hard drives…
    The motherboard has 4 x SATA3 ports – 2 on the main chipset, 2 on ASMedia ASM1061. My connection plan is  C: SSD (OS, Program) and E: HDD 1 (Media, Projects) on main chipset SATA3 ports and E: HDD 2 RAID 0 (2 x 1TB Previews, Cache) on the 2 ASMedia SATA3 ports. Volume F:  HDD 3 (2TB Export, Backup of Raid) would be connected via SATA2.
    Currently here in Australia the prices for Seagate 7200rpm ‘Barracuda’ drives are approx.:
    1TB $70 
    2TB $100 - $50/TB
    3TB $140 - $45/TB
    For $140 extra I could swap the 2 X 1TB drives for 2 x 3TB drives, drop the 1 TB Samsung Spinpoint F1 and have:
    C: SSD – 120GB - OS, Programs, Page file
    D: HDD 1 - 2 x 3TB Raid O – Media, Projects, Previews & Media Cache on the SATA3 ASMedia Chipset
    F: HDD 2 – 2TB – Exports, Backup of Raid on main SATA3 chipset 
    I’m not sure which HDD setup would give a more responsive system and whether it’s worth the extra cost, given my current restricted budget... Currently I’m leaning towards just setting up what I have and revisiting it when I upgrade to the Version 2 3770K based rig.
    Thanks in advance to the Adobe Forum Community and Harm & Bill @ ppbm7.com for helping me get this far.
    Any feedback on any aspect of my plan is much appreciated!

    Managed to scrape together a  few more $$, upgraded PSU, RAM & HDD.
    Current spec is:
    CPU - 3770K
    Mobo - ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
    RAM – 32GB - 4 x 8GB 1600Mhz (G.Skill Ares F3-1600C10D-16GAO)
    GPU – GTX 660 (Gigabyte GV-N660OC-2GD)
    C: SSD – SanDisk Extreme 120GB - OS, Programs, Page File
    D: HDD 1 – 3TB Seagate Barracuda - ST3000DM001 7200rpm – Media, Projects
    E: HDD 2 – 2 x 1TB Seagate Barracuda – ST1000DM003 7200rpm - RAID 0 – Previews, Media Cache
    F: HDD 3 - 3TB Seagate Barracuda - ST3000DM001 7200rpm – Export, Backup of Raid
    PSU – 850W Silverstone ST85F-P Strider Plu, 80Plus Silver Cert.
    Case: Mid Tower with front USB 3.0
    OS - Win7Pro
    I still have a question about Disk Setup…
    My plan was:
    1 x 3TB - Media, Projects – Sata3 (Intel chipset)
    2 x 1TB - Raid 0 - Previews, Media Cache - Sata2 (Intel chipset)
    1 X 3TB - Exports and Backup – Sata2 (Intel chipset)
    I just read Harm's clarification on the http://ppbm7.com Tweakers page that the drive setup should be 2 x Raid 0, which I had previously read as 2 drives in Raid 0 but now think should be two volumes, 4 drives. I could put the 2 x 3TB drives also in Raid 0 on Sata2 Intel and buy another 3TB drive for Backup  on SATA3 (ASMedia chipset) of the two Raid 0 volumes.
    Could I ask what you guys believe would be the most efficient allocation of file types across these volumes?
    I’m guessing the following, but would value your feedback
    2 x 3TB Raid 0 – Media, Projects,
    2 x 1TB Raid 0 – Media Cache & Database, Previews
    1 x 3TB Export, Backup
    Many Thanks!

  • Can't import edited Soundbooth file into Premiere?

    Hi,
    I've been editing a project and used Soundbooth to clean up the sound.  Worked well with several clips, the edited version appeared on the Premiere Timeline automatically, but the most recent one doesn't seem to import to the Timeline.  It did at first, but then then the sound was out of sync, not sure why (Perhaps because I had already put an audio effect on the original audio, which I've since deleted.)  I used command Z to get rid of the out of sync audio.  That worked and the non-edited sound version appeared back on the Timeline.  But now I want the edited sound version to appear back on the Timeline again (in sync, hopefully), but I can't get it to import from Soundbooth automatically as it did before.  What can I do?  I saved the audio in Soundbooth and it's still there with all the edits I've made.  I also tried to click on the un-edited audio in the Premiere Timeline and send the audio back to Soundbooth, but that only created a second, unedited file.  I don't want to have to reedit everything again, so what can I do?  Can I get the edited sound file to appear on the Timeline manually, or could I copy the edits from the first file to the second file and then have that appear in Premiere?  I'm using CS4.
    Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

    Never mind, looks like I fixed it importing the file from Premiere Pro and dragging and dropping it onto the Timeline. 

  • How can I edit FRAPS video in Premiere Elements?

    Although FRAPS isn't the best source format for video in Premiere Elements, some folks at Elements Village have come up with a workflow that seems to work pretty well.
    http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=67036
    Key elements are:
    1) The FRAPS software must be installed on the same machine you're editing your video on
    2) ffdshow should also be installed
    3) It is best to down-sample your video in FRAPS to 1280x720 at 30 fps before you bring it into Premiere Elements
    4) Output the video from FRAPS using the Huffyuv codec
    5) Edit it in a Premiere Elements project set up for Flip Mino HD 30 (although, in a pinch, it may also work in a project set up for AVCHD Lite 1280x720p)

    6xam
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running on? For now I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
    After you apply the Crop Effect (Edit Header/Effects/Video Effects/Transform/Crop), you click on "Edit Effects" toward the bottom of the Effects area to bring up the Properties Palette for that particular clip to which you have applied the Crop Effect. You should see
    Adjust the Crop sliders accordingly.
    Please let us know if I have targeted your question. If not, please supply more details on what you seek.

  • Can I edit disc menus outside Premiere 10?

    Hi
    Can I edit disc menus outside Premiere 10?
    Never done it and I would prefer it, as I find Adobe' is a bit too basic and slow.
    Thanks
    M

    Hi
    Thanks for taking the time to reply.
    Yes, I found them [W7 Home Premium - 64bit - Intel Core2 Duo CPU P8700 @ 2.54GHz - 200 Pin SO DIMM DDR2 PC2-6400 800MHz - Ati Mobility Radeon HD4650 Graphics card uses abot 1GB MAX of the Memory if needed on top of its own 500Mb- X-black LCD 16.4' HD - No game ever had problems of performance yet - 2 years].
    The reason I asked about editing them outside Premiere 10 is because the editing in Premiere 10 is the most basic they could do.
    I understand Adobe wish us to upgrade to the Pro version but those menus are not much editable and too constricted to the basic design/low quality/button-image-text.
    At least some of them are and I am using [testing] a HD one - the 'Fun' one on the General List and I now moved to the 'Grid' - having a more basic background to 'properly' show characters - also sometimes the preview plays at a awful pixel rate.
    I am no expert, but I would have preferred a 'proper' external editor to use in conjunction.
    When I find the time I will create my own - if possible!
    Are there any external Disc Menus Editors so, I can import them into Premiere?

  • Does the student teacher edition of photoshop and premiere elements 13 have to be renewed yearly?

    Does the student teacher edition of photoshop and premiere elements 13 have to be renewed yearly?

    that depends whether you were using the subscription cc version or the perpetual license version.
    if you can open, for example,  pse, click help and if you see activate/deactivate you have the perpetual license version and do not need to renew.  if you see sign in/sign out, you have the subscription version and will need to maintain your subscription to continue to use your cc program(s).

  • Editing 4K 50p with Premiere Pro / Aftereffects on a Notebook (Windows 8)

    Dear Ladys and Gentlemen,
    as a freelance cameraman and editor I eventually plan to work with Adobe Premiere Pro and possibly After Effects.
    I need to edit content in 4K (50p / MP4) and FullHD (50P / MP4 or MOV), filmed with the camera Panasonic HC-X1000.
    Can s.o. tell me if Premiere Pro and After Effects are compatible with these formats and the camera?
    Because I need a mobil editing system I plan to buy a strong notebook (windows 8 / at least 17" monitor).
    The laptop is suppost to ba a future-orientated choice, means rather overpeformed than just good enough at the time.
    Can anyone suggest a certain 17"-notebook for editing 4K 50p with Premiere Pro and After Effects?
    Thank you very much

  • PREMIERE PRO - struggling on Simple edit w/PRores HQ files.

    Heavy trailer editor here - so I'm used to weirdness -  but this is one I can't figure out. -I have about 40 episodes of an HD tv series all PRORES HQ approx 50 minutes each in length with 10 mono tracks apiece.  Premiere is acting REALLY slow handling the material...struggles to keep up in editorial/ will delay playing back, etc. Lots of color wheel spinning.  When you mute a track or even try to switch tracks it takes a while making a decision to change.
    Is not shutting down or anything - just endless struggles.  - Shouldn't be.  I have a new 2013 maxed out MacPro with a Promise raid.
    I have another different trailer project with a different show w/half the episodes which works fine on the same setup.   But, as soon as this project opens the struggling begins anew.  Any Ideas?

    wow...really?! I'm astonished...the piece I'm making is really only 3-4 minutes long, but it appears the vast amount of material is causing the issue then? Wow... I may be old school - but this issue of memory management & media was resolved by numerous software makers nearly a decade ago.. so we're right back to the 1990's again? 
    ugh...isn't this 2014?  What happened to "PROFESSIONAL APPLICATIONS ?" - I am certainly running some of the fastest gear on the planet...
    grumble!

  • ProRes 422 & Premiere Pro CS5.5.2 Playback

    I am a long-term user of CS5
    Recently started using ProRes 422 footage, (LT in order to keep file size a little smaller). The footage is taken from a Ninja2 via the HDMI of a Sony HVR Z5.
    I do a lot of post work on my projects and the native mpeg2 8 bit from the HVR would not hold out too well. Apart from that, I had no previous performance issues using mpeg 2 files.
    Now the ProRes 422 footage in the preview window and in the timeline of PremPro is stuttering and won't play smoothly for more than a couple of seconds at a time. This has become progressively worse as the timeline has grown.
    I use a single video track (I don't stack or nest) and often use 4-5 audio tracks ( 24bit .WAV) plus a stereo channel from the Ninja2. Audio settings within the project are 32 bit floating.
    Average Data Rate of the ProRes (LT) Video File is 8.9 MB/s. Source Audio is 48KHz 16 Bit.
    Edit Workstation system (exclusive, no other use):
    Triple Channel 24GB 1600 RAM
    i7 970 (Hex) 3.2GHz
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 580
    MB Gigabyte X58 (No Overclocking)
    SSD OS & Programs
    4 x 500 GB Sata2 Caviar Black RAID 0 media scratch disk and cache (Software RAID - no hardware controller). The RAID is striped at 128Kb.
    1 x 1TB Sata2 Caviar Black project files
    CPU Temps 44-46 C
    System Temps 41 C
    Graphics Temps 58-60 C
    Disk Temps 30-40 C
    The disk access times during playback are often less than 5 ms. Quick Bench (8MB zone) test gives RAID 0 Average Read Time of 642 MB/s, Random Access Time of 14 ms, and Burst Speed of 3411MB/s. CPU Utilisation is 2%. CPU system usage is fairly low as is the RAM demand with 50% often unused. 18Gb of RAM is allocated to Adobe programs (After Effects & Prem Pro) with 6GB available for other things.
    I am using no external monitor interfaces.
    The ProRes footage is imported into Prem Pro and the sequence setting is automatically created by dragging the ProRes file into the New Item folder.
    The project sequence created by Premiere Pro is AVCHD 1080i Square Pixels 1920 x 1080, Upper Field First 25 fps (PAL) which is correct for me in the UK.
    This works out fine as I have additional footage from a Sony NX5 which is AVCHD and happy with those sequence settings - I get smooth playback from the NX5 in both the preview window and the timeline. The resulting timeline bar colour is Yellow for both footage. If the Pro Res footage is rendered on the timeline (green bar) playback is fine. The render codec is by default I-Frame Only MPEG.
    At the start of the project, the playback seemed fine, but now I am about 35 minutes in and the whole thing has ground to a stuttery conclusion.
    The footage in the preview window scrubs and jogs fine, but plays for about a second or two then stutters, as does the timeline. I would expect my system to easily handle the Pros Res footage - but it doesn't.
    Any similar experiences out there?

    1. With that much footage, I might set previews to render to my output size, so as to cut down on final render time.
    2.  112gb!  Holy Crap!  I hope you're on a fast RAID drive with that!  Otherwise saying you're headed up $*it creek without a paddle doesn't quite cover it... ...more like drowning in the $*it ocean. 
    With that much information you're almost always better off utilizing a rendered file rather than relying on your dynamic link.  If playback is choppy, you need to be able to render to a drive that isn't "Busy" while you're playing from it.  I've found that using separate RAID for my main project file, and my original or AE assets allows me to render out the previews to a non-busy drive, making the output faster, and the playback faster when reading it.
    Dynamic linkage is great... ...if you're going to be making more changes to that piece, leave it as is and play it back, if not, RENDER THE EFFECT, or RENDER A WORK AREA set to the clip you're editing.  If you're done for the day, render the whole damned thing and leave it until you come back.  Rendered effects will play back faster than active process effects (renders are already in the video, set into it as if native to it; active process edits aren't in the video, they are applied as it is played back, and require more processing so they slow things down), and when you come back from lunch or from home, you'll have a freshly rendered slate to preview.  This means you'll be able to show off for the client by morning.  Need a Web-capable rendering for a status update you're sending to a client, DUPE the sequence, change the preview on the DUPE to match some web capable settings with smaller frame height\width resolution and compress the hell out of it.  Youtube can play it back pretty well, and vimeo also, and you'll be able to upload it in 2-4 hours (if your system is archaic like mine, smaller video outputs great).  Personally, I've found comps with AE to be a pain when trying to link and playback.  Render a work area around the comp if you're going to play it back.  IF you want to preview a whole section, Dupe the Sequence and use the Dupe to NEST the SECTION (create a trim or edit mark at the beginning and end of the section you wish to preview, select everything between the markers, right click and select nest), and you can use AME to render a small preview file, so you don't interrupt the rest of your work.
    I work with more sound quality constraint than video, and the sound quality has to be real, while the video does not need to be perfect (doesn't mean I don't damn well try; I've really just begun my journey into this world, and have only begun to use prores, but found some pitfalls to experiment and solve).  I start with whatever I'm given, go to prores, edit with a prores proxy preview at ¼ the input size, and render out once just to get started.  The effects values are applied to the preview in playback, easing the playback stutter, and allowing me to work fluidly on a laptop mac with an intel core2 2.16ghz with a geforce gfx card at 256mbvram and 4gb of system ram, with (hardware hack) 2 internal drives each at 1tb, one for main use, and one for housing my project files.  Using an old esata express card raid box, I get great speed from the playback by storing the previews on RAID, while all the other files are housed on my secondary internal drive.  With multi cam AV, you need to be able to store the main clips on different drives, or on a raid store (ideally on separate RAID stores) in order to play them back while cutting them together.  However, once cut, you should render out the preview in it's entirety, and start your other edits from that point.  Then you can render just the effects and still get great playback.
    If you don't see Prores in your preview box, get the AME prores presets from the adobe site, and you can place them by hand into your app (the folder should be the EncoderPresets folder in the program files on windows, on mac open the .app by right click and select show package contents>contents folder>settings>EncoderPresets and paste the .epr files there by hand).  Then open up premiere and you should be able to use prores proxy for your previews and export.  I like to export to prores and then use handbrake to export to x264 with --fake-interlaced set up so I can use it as a transcode for Encore.  Just keep your blu-ray data rates under 35mbps and you should be fine.

  • Choppy Playback of Blackmagic ProRes in Premiere CC

    Hi there,
    I'm editing a friend's short film, shot on the Blackmagic Cinema to ProRes files. In standalone Quicktime, outside of Premiere, the files play seamlessly, but in the Premiere CC project, Source and Program Monitors, the clips are choppy/frame-dropping, even at 1/4 resolution.
    I've edited countless shorts and features on this system - Canon 5D, 7D, Scarlet, C300 - and I've never experienced choppy playback. Any advice on how to nix this? Quicktime is fully updated, and, like I said, the files play perfectly in actual Quicktime.
    Thanks!
    Stephen

    Me, too. But as soon as I re-synched the project and moved back, the
    choppiness stopped. Like clockwork. I have found that, since updating to
    CC, I am using PP 6 more often.
    As tough as that is to take, I appreciate your feedback.
    Have an awesome weekend,

  • How Do I Edit Apple ProRes 422 HQ on my PC?

    I've recieved some footage that I'm supposed to be editing, but all of is Apple ProRes 422 HQ and I've got a PC. Everytime I try to import the files into either Premiere CC or AfterFX CC the audio works, but the video is just a blank green screen. So my question is, how do I edit ProRes on my PC? What steps do I need to take to make it editable?

    As Richard stated, just install Apple QuickTime, nothing to purchase. I've edited ProRes on several different PCs and never an issue (QT was already installed by default on those machines).
    Thanks

  • How to export edited GoPro mov from Premiere with same settings & similar size?

    I feel like this should be easy but every time I try to export my edited video it's much bigger than the original, or it's smaller and bad quality.
    My business partner sent me a 720p GoPro MOV that is 33:50 long and 1.78GB. I edited out 3 minutes and want to render in the same quality.
    I've tried exporting as MOV and MP4 with various settings and it either ends up huge, like 25GB or more, or half the size and terrible quality.
    I also tried rendering "match sequence settings" and it chooses a GoPro codec with a weird file extension (MXF).
    The closest I've gotten is H.264 "Match Source - High bitrate" but that's still 2.29GB
    Thanks,
    Phil

    i would guess the gopro MOV file that was sent to you is h264. you can adjust the bitrate on export to h264 from premiere so its smaller. if you want more compression with sightly better quality you will have to export as dnxhd/prores or even uncompressed and then use a program like handbrake to transcode to x264 or x265.

  • Edit column issue in Premiere Elements 9

    Is there an issue with the Edit Column feature in the project window of Premiere Elements 9?
    When I add a Description or Comment column, changes are not saved when I close and reopen the program.
    Also, I cannot write any text in these columns to describe my videos (if I click on the space for writing comments, it just opens up a window to view the video) whereas I was able to do it with version 4 and earlier.
    I am using the trial version before buying and would like to know if the purchased version has this problem or not and if it can be fixed?

    I could be mis-remembering, but I think that Steve Grisetti has confirmed about what you indicate. I do not know if this was some sort of change in Adobe's thinking, and they did not clean up after themselves, or if this is just a Bug, that needs to be addressed.
    Personally, I would file a Bug Report, with the full details, and hope to get a fix in the works.
    Also, if I am mis-remembering, I am sure that Steve G. will correct me.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
