Export to MPEG2 with 4:2:2 chroma...  is it possible

I don't see how you can specify colour sampling in compressor... can you export to MPEG2 format with 4:2:2 from an uncompressed 10bit 4:2:2 file???
I need to create an MPEG2 file with 4:2:2 (broadcast quality).,. any ideas for encoders or even HARDWARE solutions?!?!
ANYBODY, please help..
thanks,
darrin

play away sir... haha..
but.. i'm still left with no answer for MAC here..
FYI... it's going to www.pathfire.com which is a SAT company and they know what they're doing..
they are the ones to give me these specs...
Stream Type: Transport or Program
Bit: 8mbs
Compression: Constant Bitrate
Chroma: 4:2:2 (AHHHH)
GOP: IBBP 15 (long GOP)
GOP: OPEN
Res: 720x480 (720x512 if Neilson Sigma is used)
Audio: mpeg1 layer 2
Audio bitrate: 192kbs
Audio Sample: 48Khz
so.. there you folks go... i need to get my file into this format...

  • Export to MPEG2 with 4:2:2 chroma...  is it possible? Where are the setting

    I don't see how you can specify colour sampling in compressor... can you export to MPEG2 format with 4:2:2 from an uncompressed 10bit 4:2:2 file???
    Final Cut cannot directly output mpeg2 so i'm interested if anyone else knows of a compression program for MAC where you can be SURE it's exporting 4:2:2 or you can specify in an option?
    Thanks!

    Hey Bono11,
    unfortunately, compressor only has the MPEG2, DVD compliant algorithm.
    what this mean for you is:
    resolutions of 720x480 or 720x576 in 4:2:0 that are interlaced (MainProfile@MainLevel).
    however, the newsest version of Compressor also offers MainProfile@HighLevel with limitations of 1920x1080 in 4:2:0 that are progressive which can be used for "HD DVD".
    the bottom line is that you cannot use compressor to create 4:2:2 MPEG2 files.
    you would need a MPEG2 encoder, NOT a DVD MPEG2 encoder (like compressor).
    of course you can create other files that do have 4:2:2 since compressor, at it's root is a transcoder.
    also, when you look for an MPEG2 encoder, it will be a litter steep, price wise.
    why would you want to create a 4:2:2 file anyway. are you creating a mastering file? does it have to be a Program stream or can it be a transport stream file?

  • How can I export an mpeg2 with 4:2:2 chroma?

    I've done a lot of searching on this and learned a little bit but can't figure out what I'm missing.  I need to supply a company with a movie to very specific mpeg2 specs.  I've got all of the settings right except the file is rendering out with 4:2:0 sampling and it needs to be 4:2:2.  There isn't any sort of option for this in my Export Settings (using CS4).  Am I missing something obvious?  Or does this depend on the source material and it's something I can't change?

  • Exporting to mpeg2 with audio

    Trying to export to MPEG2 with audio from fcp studio to broadcast over cable, anyone know how to do this.

    So, you need a muxed file? You may need to buy Sorenson Squeeze and check the station for the exact settings or the web for settings files. (i.e. I found a Fast Channel setting online somewhere)

  • Frame Blending always on when exporting to MPEG2 with Premiere 4.2.1

    Hi,
    Can anyone confirm that when exporting to MPEG-2 DVD that Frame Blending seems to always be present even if you disable it on the timeline with Premiere 4.2.1.   I know that sometime before the 4.2.1 update that this was not the case.
    The problem is not present when exporting to other formats, like H.264.
    Note:  I am going from a 24fps Desktop timeline -> MPEG2
    Can someone confirm this, please?

    Colin:  So was this introduced before 4.2.1?  I'd like to know which version to revert to to avoid this problem.
    I'm not actually goign from 24fps to 29.97fps, but from 24fps to 23.976.   I've tried a range of settings/frame rates, but with mpeg2 specifically, I have forced frame blending.
    From what I understand, my settings should not introduce frame blending.
    Here are my sequence settings:
    Desktop
    24fps
    1280 x 720
    Square Pixel
    No fields (progressive scan)
    Outputting to:
    Mpeg2-dvd
    23.976
    Widescreen
    No fields (progressive scan)
    Interpolation does not necessarily involve frame blending...It should simply duplicate frames....

  • Can't export to MPEG2 with AME CC 2014

    It seems AME CC 2014 doesn't like me.  When trying to export a project from Premiere CC 2014 to MPEG2, I get "Cannot create movie.  Unknown error".  Switching to AME I get the same thing, but AVI seems to work.  Previous versions of AME and PPro seem to be fine, it's just 2014.  Anyone else run into this yet?  I really need to be able to export MPEG2 files.

    I wasn't, but after some tinkering I've found a couple of issues.  After reverting back to the NTSC DV preset and modifying from there, it'll generate the error when I try to set it for a CBR of 15 Mbps.  Anything below that is fine.  Also when trying to use MATCH SOURCE, it errors out until you uncheck Profile and Level.  The video playback server I send clips to is rather picky, so I try to give it as easy of a file as possible.. CBR and 1 GOP seems to make it rather happy.  All of those work, except the 15 Mbps CBR.  It's an annoyance but one I can work around for now.
    I'll submit a bug report to Adobe and see what they say.

  • Can't export to AIR with Windows Style as Custom Chrome (transparent)

    I can export to AIR with Xcelsius SP1 and FP1 as long as the Windows Style is set to either System Chrome or Custom Chrome (Opaque). However, if I choose Custom Chrome (transparent), it does not generate the AIR file but also does not create an error.
    I had the network connectivity issue talked about in other threads so I could not export at all before but resolved that by taking my laptop home and exporting here. Now it works except for exporting to transparent.
    Versions installed with correct paths:
    FLEX SDK: 3.2
    JRE: 1.6.0_07
    AIR: 1.5

    Andy,
    I'm also beginning to have this issue but it's new to me as I had to set up a new machine today. It has Xcelsius '08 SP1/FP1, Flex SDK 3.3 and J2RE 1.4.2.19. I've previously been able to export using the Custom chrome (transparent) option but I haven't been able to make a thorough examination of the two machines. One major difference is that the machine having the issue is a VM while the other is not. I did a little digging around and found this post on another forum. By the date on the post, this is a rather old problem.

    Post subject: XCelsius 2008 - Exporting to AIR Hi, I just wanted to share a problem we've experienced when exporting our Xcelsius dashboards to Adobe AIR.
    These are the symptoms: when exporting to air format, Xcelsius doesn't generate the .air package. We can see that Xcelsius generates some temporary files (swf, xml, tmp) but then deletes the files and does nothing.
    To validate if the problem was on Xcelsius or on the AIR SDK we tried to manually generate the .air package by using the AIR SDK and the adt command, and received this error message:
    "Could not generate timestamp: Connection timed out: connect"
    One of the steps AIR SDK follows when generating an .air package is to contact a time-stamp server. If the AIR SDK fails to contact the tsa, no package will be generated and an error message similar to this one will be sent.
    To validate if this was the cause of the problem, we executed adt and added the -tsa none (to skip the time-stamp validation) and everything seems to work. Unfortunately we can't add this setting when exporting from Xcelsius 2008.
    We are connecting to the internet using a proxy server.
    If we try to export while connected to another network (no proxy) the export is executed with no problems.
    Although we've changed our JRE settings to use the company's proxy we still can't Export to AIR while connected to this network.
    Any ideas of how we could fix this?
    It would be nice if Xcelsius could display an error message when experiencing problems with the AIR SDK instead of doing nothing at all.
    I have not yet been able to verify the above information but maybe it will help you guys. If you need more information from me, let me know. I'm going to do some more testing tomorrow and will post any results I find. I really really need this option to work.

  • Cannot Export MPEG2 with Audio

    Turn on the Multiplexer. You have been exporting el;ementary streams resulting in two files, one for video and one for audio. You have to make the export a transport stream to get a single file with both video and audio.

  • Premiere CS4 exporting to MPEG2, changes timeline??

    I've been using Premiere CS4 to edit my videos.  Once the video is complete I do a file > export > media to use Media Encoder to save the media in various formats, one of them being MPEG2.  In the timeline for each video I have 3 seconds of black at the start and 10 seconds at the end.  I just noticed today that when I export to MPEG2, the created MPG file has the black trimmed off both ends, and it apparently stretches the video to fill the full time length somehow.  So if my show should fade to black at 28:00 normally (as it does on the timeline), with 10 seconds of black until 28:10, when I view the created MPG file the video start immediately instad of waiting 3 seconds, and it will fade out the video at 28:10 and not have my 10 seconds of trailing black. So it must be stretching the whole video to fill in that extra 10 seconds.  It only does this with exporting to an MPEG2 file, the AVI and WMV files I export into using the same timeline are fine.
    I had never noticed this before on the 20+ shows I've previously exported, I never even thought about going back and checking out the actual end time for the MPG versions because it was fine on other formats.  Apparently this is something not isolated to this computer I'm using because I went back to my old laptop and did an export the same way on an old video and it did the same thing.  I'm stumped. 
    Any help on how to be able to export to an MPEG2 file exactly what I have on the timeline like the other formats do would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi Ann,
    The sequence length is the same in Premiere as it is when I play it in media player.  They both clock in at 28:10, but the exported mpg plays differently somehow.  When I play it on the sequence my show fades to black at exactly 28:00, and then I have 10 seconds of black, that’s how I want it to be.  When I play the exported mpg file in media player it doesn’t fade out the show until 28:10, and there’s no 10 seconds of black at the end, it just ends after the fade out.  The software appears to be stretching the video to make 28:00 of video fit into a 28:10 length file, but since 10 seconds over 28 minutes isn’t that much it’s not noticeable when I watch it.
    I just tried what you said to do… I took the exported MPG and pulled it back into Premiere and played it on the timeline, and it is playing it properly in there with the 10 sec of black at the end and timing it correctly.  I don’t get it!  It only shows up correct in Premiere, I’ve tried in both WMP and Real player and they’re doing the same thing.  But my avi and wmv version exports all play properly in WMP.  Very strange!
    Thanks for your help.

  • Exporting to mpeg2 using Quicktime compression - render problems

    Using FCP Studio 5.1 to export to DVD, FCP keeps asking for file to be rendered even after we have rendered complete movie. There are no green or red bars, so why does FCP not accept this as a full render?
    We are exporting using mpeg2 Quicktime compression, not Compressor 2.
    Is there a work-round?

  • Export to mpeg2 does not work?

    I have updated to QT7 and brought FCP Studio2 which also asks to update to latest revision of which I now have QT 7.2, I have noticed that exporting to mpeg2 no longer is an option in my list. I have been through this forum and noted other problems with 7.2 and also renewed my QT Pro Key again for QT7 and re brought mpeg2 play back again to see if this solves the problem, but it doesn't.
    Any other ideas before trying to get a refund back from Apple? are they on the case to fix all these issues with QT7.

    Converting a video to mpeg-2 has moved to Compressor. Is no longer an option in Qt.
    Why would you buy Qt 7 Pro when it comes free in FCP same with the mpeg-2 component?
    If you go to the mpeg-2 component page on Apple's site.
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
    In big letters it says, "MPEG-2 Playback." Nowhere does it state on that page that you can use the component to make mpeg-2 videos, only play them. You can transcode to another codev using the mpeg-2 component.

  • Exporting as MPEG2 DVD or MPEG2 Blu-ray makes my clips shorter!?

    Hi,
    Firstly - I am shooting footage on a Panasonic HDC-HS300 using the 1080i 25 default setting, and importing the AVCHD file as such into Premiere Pro CS4 v.4.2.1.
    My aim is to get the best image quality results possible using a workflow where I take the raw AVCHD footage (possibly converted to AVI first) into Premiere Pro, Dynamic Linking to After Effects for color correction etc, and Dynamic Linking back to Premiere Pro for final export/render in several different formats for several different purposes.
    Anyway - Here's the problem:
    I have been playing with different ways to do this (for MANY hours), and have found that whenever I attempt to export/render out from Premiere Pro with Adobe Media Encoder using either the MPEG2 DVD or MPEG2 Blu-ray (both using the default HDTV 1080i 25 settings), I end up with clips that are shorter than the original clips! For example, I have been editing a clip that was originally 56 seconds long, but after the export/render it is only 48 seconds long.
    To make things even stranger, the accompanying audio file that is rendered out along side the MPEG video file not shortened and comes out as 56 seconds long, as it is supposed to be.
    Someone please help....?
    Thanks
    Mikkel
    P.S. If I were to convert the AVCHD to an AVI format, which would be the best applications and formats to do so?

    Firstly - The reason for converting AVCHD to AVI is because despite Adobe claiming that CS4 is native AVCHD, the reality is that if I import AVCHD and edit it in Premiere Pro, color correct in After Effects and then render it out from Premiere Pro, I end up with either very significant judder or artifacts in the final result. I stress that this only happens when the input into Premiere Pro is AVCHD, NOT when I use converted (lossless - Lagarith) AVI as my input. In other words, it DOES serve a purpose to convert AVCHD to AVI first.
    Secondly - I am NOT using 29.97 or 30 fps.
    I am exporting in MPEG2 HDTV 1080i25 (i.e. 25 fps, which is the only available option for this preset), as I wrote in my original post...

  • Exporting a mpeg2 to burn onto a dvd

    Hi,  I am using adobe premiere elements 8. 
    Basically I have lots and lots of mp2t video files which I recorded with a full HD (1920 x1080) panasonic camera.  I need to burn them on a dvd  and I have tried several times in premiere elements but it produces an error code and can't complete. I've re installed the program several times and on different computers. 
    So I thought after weeks of throwing dvd's away, maybe I could export the files in premiere elements to a MPEG 2 dvd file and then use a dvd authoring software like dvd maker. 
    I would like to know what settings would get the best quality in adobe premiere elements on the advanced settings on the multiplexer and video settings?  I put the bit rate the highest it would go and the quality to the maximum. 
    The other thing that has me completely puzzled is the aspect ratio.  Do I choose 4:3 or 16:9? 
    I have tried to use video to dvd software in the past and all it does is stretches the image and doesn't give you an option to keep the original aspect ratio of the imported video.  I can't even find out what the aspect ratio is because when I import it into gspot it doesn't give me any information. 
    any help would be appreciated.

    Could you post a screenshot of the error message that you are getting when you burn to DVD your video in Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 or post word for word what it says? The rest of what I am about to write becomes meaningless without that information.
    The basic drill with Premiere Elements 8 is
    a. Do you have the automatic background rendering and AutoAnalzyer features turned Off?
    b. Are you working from the 8.0.1 Update?
    You say that your video is "Full HD 1920 x 1080". That could be interlaced or progressive. In your case of a DVD-VIDEO destination, your choices for project preset are:
    a. NTSC/AVCHD/Full HD1080i30
    and apply Field Options/Reverse Field Dominance to the video at the Timeline Level if interlaced video
    OR
    b. NTSC/Hard Disk Flash Memory Camcorders/HD 1080i30
    For burn to DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc....
    Share
    Disc
    DVD disc
    with preset for NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby DVD (so you have a 16:9 source going to a 16:9 end product)
    Many found that the resource demands of AVCHD (various sized project) were not met by Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 and opted to convert the video to a less resource demanding format such as MPEG2 HD 1920 x 1080. Other means were explored as well (proxy methods and such). These considerations as they relate to later versions of Premiere Elements and operating systems can be discussed if applicable.
    I would explore the above and burn to disc.
    A better choice than export as MPEG2 file might be to burn to folder and then take the VIDEO_TS from the saved folder to DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc with a 3rd party software such as ImgBurn. Lots of possibilities.
    More later once we find out the nature of the error messages associated with the burn to disc process.
    Thanks.

  • How to export animated gif with transparent background and glow effect?

    I've been having issues lately with creating animated gifs in flash. I finally figured out a way to export a gif with a transparent background but I'm now having an issue with it again because I'm using a glow effect. When the gif is exported the glow effect changes into a very poor quality and becomes less of a glow and more like a solid color. I've even exported a png sequence from flash and put it into photoshop then created a gif from there but I'm still having the same issue. Is there anyway I can properly export this in gif form so the quality is the same as when I test it in flash?
    I've provided an image of what my issue looks like and the settings (I've messed around with the settings and this is the best I can come up with) . This is in photoshop but the result is similar in flash. The left one is what it originally looks like and the right is what it will look like after exporting. As you can see as I said before the glow changes into more of a solid color kind of like a border. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

    A GIF is limited to 256 colors while a glow effect likely wants to tie up thousands (let's just say 'lots') of variations of tone.
