Exporting an avi out of premiere cs4 from a tiff sequence (1024 x 576)

Hi i would be so greatful if someone could inform me of the correct setting becouse at the moment the avi i export seems to not be wide enough.
I have a tiff sequence renderd out from after effects at 1024 x 576 and set to square pixels. i am required to then take this into premiere and render out as a microsoft avi with the compression set to none. i also need to add a sound file to this the movie.
i begin by setting up a new sequence and as i cant seem to set the size to 1024x576 i have selected the preset widescreen 48khz (not 100% if this is right) i then bring both my tiff sequence(1024x576) and my music on to the time line, i the click export and media : Here is the settings on the screen and as you can see in the preview widow the size seems to look about right. However once the movie has been exported it does not appear as wide as this.
i would be so greatfull if you can tell if i am doing anything wrong.
Thankyou,
Ryan

Why do you need the AVI file, and does it have to be DV AVI? The problem will be that DV AVI is going to Export to less than what you have in both your Project/Sequence and your Assets. [Edit] Must have been dreaming, as you never mentioned "DV. You should be able to Export out as MS AVI [Uncompressed]
Depending on exactly how you will use this file, might provide some other alternative. There are several other good CODEC's, that might get what you have into what you want.
Please define the use for the Exported file? Answers will flow in.
Good luck,

Is microsoft avi the highest quality format to export an avi file in premiere pro cs4?

Hello,
I exported an avi file in premiere pro cs4 in media encoder using Microsoft avi format but the quality turned out poor on dvd, what's the highest quality format I can use?
Please help
Thanks
Elio

Elio,
As has been stated, DV-AVI is not the format FOR a DVD-Video. However, it can be used (and often is) as a transport medium into a DVD authoring program, like Encore.
Can you please outline your workflow from PrPro to the final DVD, and is it a DVD-Video (will contain MPEG-2 material in VOB "containers"), or a DVD-Data, that is then played on a computer with something like Windows Media Player, VLC, MediaPlayer Classic HC, etc.?
Good luck, and please let us know exactly what you are doing, and the programs used.

Frame duplication during 2vuy (in .avi) import on Premiere CS4

Hello:
I am currently trying to import a complete Premiere CS4 (version 4.2.1) project on my laptop, Windows 7 - 64bit, which doesn't have an AJA Kona 3 card installed. The detailed file specification of the source file is given further below and had been created on a system with AJA's Kona card. The source files are in an AVI wrapper, in OpenDML, with 2vuy and had been created by the AJA Kona card on a different system.
The file gets imported into Premiere, and it displays the correct file length, here of about 56mn 24s. However, I can only access the first few seconds. If I drag the video file to the timeline, I realized that every frame is present for about 2 minutes and 40 seconds, which results in about 18 seconds of the original file length. To explain it in different words - I have the same frame at position 00:00:00, 00:00:01, 00:00:02 until 02:39:24.
The original files can be properly displayed within the windows media player, which utilizes a YCbCr Codec from Drastic Technology Inc. Therefore, I strongly believe that the source files aren't corrupted. What should I do now?

Hello Filmemacher,
AJA has a QuickTime Codec out for the Format you need. The Codec is free and the File can be played/exported through QuickTime (Pro Version only). Another Solution is the Drastic Codec Suite that has all the AJA/Kona, DVS, Optibase Codecs plus the normal ones from Windows (IYUV, I420, UYVY, YUY2, YVYU) in one Codec. The download Link has been updated with the new Versions on the Drastic Website. The Drastic Codec works for AVI in Windows and MOV for QuickTime for encoding and decoding Films. I use them myself for a long Time now without any Problems.
Please note: There are some Links to old Versions of the Drastic/Optibase Codecs in the Internet, mainly in Eastern Countrys. Stay away from them because of many Virus alerts and unstable outdated Versions.
Best regards, Mickey
Here is the Link to Download the new Version 3.4 with Vista/7/8 64 Bit Support:
http://www.drastictech.com/download_codec.html
Other Platforms supported: Windows 9x/SE/ME/NT/2K/XP/Vista/7 (all 32 Bit)

Problems With Camptasia AVI File in Premiere CS4

Hi everyone,
I need help with the creating a video in Premiere CS4 using some Camptasia AVI files. I have used Camptasia to include a voice-over into a presentation and then saved it as an AVI file. I was able to include that AVI file into my Project in CS4 and edit it there adding to video files transferred from the camera. The problem came up when I tried to export the CS Project as an AVI or FLV file. It does not save the entire video but rather saves only the first couple of minutes of it. Can someone recommend me what to do?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Bahar

The problem is in the file itself. You set up your project in premiere at 30fps and imported file from camtasia studio does not have that frame rate. Camtasia does not have a good and fast enough codeck that would record 30fps. So premiere will try to recompress your file to proper structure with 30fps thus will give you the output of a very short file.
Camtasia have another software that is designed to capture needed frame rate but it is available only to the big companies.
I have tried this soft and ran into this problem and camtasia replied to me whit statement that this soft is not designed to capture full frame rate video.

Problems exporting to H264 out of Premiere CC

I'm trying to export out of Adobe Premiere CC (7.2.1) to H.264 (quicktime specifically) and am having some rather persistent issues with image quality/artifacting.
I'm on Mavericks 10.9.2
I'm working with 2.8 Ghz Intel Xeon Processors, 32gb ram, and have tried two different graphics cards. An AMD Radeon 5770 1GB and a NVidia GTX 680 2GB.
My source footage is primarily ProRes 1920x1080 29.97.
My output setting is Quicktime .MOV H.264 1920x1080 29.97 at 20 mb/s using Maximum render quality.
I've set the video renderer to use Open CL, CUDA, and Software Only and have gotten identical results.
I've also tried exporting both out of Premiere and Media Encoder and have gotten identical results.
The quality of the export is dramatically lower than what I'm accustomed to with this bitrate and resolution. Our delivery format for TV and the Web is H.264, so I'm fairly used to this filetype. I know, what it's supposed to look like at certain resolutions and bitrates. In the past, when we used Final Cut, we would output to a ProRes master and export an H.264 MOV from Quicktime 7. If I use that workflow, (exporting to ProRes master from Premiere and then encoding that ProRes Master to H.264 using QT7), I get much better results. More detail in the image. Way less banding. A much sharper image.
The problem is that we've made the move to Premiere, and would like to take advantage of the Premiere workflow. Being able to skip the step of exporting a ProRes master would save time and storage. But I can't do that with these quality issues. Has anyone had similar issues exporting to H.264 .MOV from Premiere CC?

Just thought I'd update this post once more with a bit more information I've learned. I think what was ultimately causing the drop in quality for my encode was the keyframes option in Premiere. I think the way this happens is that when you select the "quicktime" format in the export settings menu, it defaults to the "NTSC DV" encoding preset. By default, the NTSC DV Keyframe value is "1" and the option to change it is grayed out. But, If you change the video codec (as opposed to changing the preset) to "H.264", the keyframe option is un-grayed, but it inherits whatever the value was in the previous video codec that was chosen, as opposed to automatically assigning a value that's appropriate to the resolution, codec, and bitrate you've chose. So, in my case, the H.264 codec had all the right information that I usually use (like resolution, bit-rate, etc.), but it was using a keyframe value that's normally used for NTSC DV. I'm not accustomed to adjusting keyframe values, so I didn't notice the discrepancy for quite awhile, and had bad exports as a result.

Media Encoder error about activation when exporting in activated version of Premiere CS4

I get the following error when I try to export media in Premiere CS4 (Note: I have a legal and activated copy of CS4 Master Collection). In Premiere, it appears to go through (the loading progress bar fills and then disappears) but when I check the folder, it's empty. And then I notice that there's another icon in my taskbar and oh hey, it says "AMT Subsystem Error: Thank you for using Adobe Media Encoder CS5. The Adobe product that installed Media Encoder has not activated. Please launch and activate that Adobe product before continuing to use Media Encoder."
I'm using Windows 7 x64 (8gb of RAM). I tried installing the patch as suggested in this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/719451 but it only claimed to not have the corresponding program installed. I tried checking to see if there were any updates - there weren't.
A quick check on my computer reveals that both Media Encoder CS4 and CS5 are installed. I looked to see if there was a way to uninstall the CS5 version but didn't see it. The only way I think I could have gotten it was though some sort of Adobe update.
Any ideas of how to fix this?

Hi: I have the same problem, but it happened very suddenly and after very specific updates. I successfully encoded a file using the CS6 encoder. Then, I allowed updates to Adobe Media Player and Adobe Air. I tried to encode with CS6 again and it had stopped working - all in the space of 5 minutes. A reboot did not help. I also have CS4 and CS 5.5 installed and have had all along (which means that you can have them and use the CS6 encoder). Since I can no longer use the CS6 encoder, but am able to launch an older one, I am using that for the moment. I hope that this reply will be of some help in finding a solution.

Any update on why File Export is grayed out in Premiere Elements 8?

I just "upgraded" from 7. In the past versions I used Export command to quickly get myself an audio track exported. Not a huge deal because it looks like I can accomplish the same thing in the "Share" area, but why wouldn't they remove the menu command instead of graying out? Also, irritating because I've wasted 30 minutes trying to figure that out as well as another 30 min. having to go through the NVIDIA driver issue. Arggggghhhh.
Thx!
Jeremy

Ah, that would certainly make perfect sense. Thank you for that observation. Now, I feel better about the coding in PrE 8!
Appreciated,

How do you export multiple clips out of Premiere CC

It's listed as a feature numerous times in the forums but I haven't been able to export cut down stock footage as individual clips. Can someone please direct me on how to do so.
Thanks!

Ahhh, yes.
Adobe goofed on this one. When you export a sequence, the default is properly set up for In to Out range. But when you export a clip, the default is Entire Clip. This makes NO sense to me. Why would anyone want to create an exact duplicate? It seems much more likely that exporting a clip, you want only the In to Out far more often.
Unfortunately, there's no way to change this when selecting multiple clips. You can only change that setting when you send a single clip.
Please let Adobe know you want the default for Sequences and Clips to be In/Out range.
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
In the mean time, I'm afraid you're stuck setting up one clip at a time.
I'm on Windows, so I can't help with the ProRes issue.

Suddenly Media Encoder won't export to .avi from a Premiere Pro sequence

Came back to work today and out of the blue Media Encoder just won't export to .avi from a Premiere Pro sequence. Working with CS5 on Windows 7. That was the last thing I did yesterday before leaving work and it worked just fine, and it has always worked without any problems ever since I upgraded from CS4.
Here are the steps I always take: go to Export-->Media from the Premiere Pro sequence and the settings open up, I select Microsoft AVI - PAL DV, click the queue button, AME opens up but nothing loads, the queue remains empty and nothing happens.
I tried the same but selected MPEG-2 instead and it works that way.
I also tried opening the sequence directly from AME and it does it but it doesn't give me the option to export it to Microsoft AVI, it's just not on the list.
I deleted all preferences and old metadata options saved from all applications but that didn't help.
Didn't install any updates whatsoever that might have changed anything at all from yesterday till now.
If anyone knows what the problem might be and how to fix it, that will be truly appreciated, thanks in advance.

After a couple of hours going through the registry and every folder and file inside "Program Files--Adobe--Media Encoder CS5" and trying to find the problem, I did.
Thing is, the ExportAVI.prm plug-in file wasn't missing, it was there in the "Plug-ins--common" folder together with every other exporter and importer file, it just wasn't being loaded by AME for some reason. So i found a folder named "txt" and inside it there was a file named "AddExporterList.txt" which I opened and, as you could probably imagine from its pretty self-explanatory name, it contained a list of the exporter files that AME was supposed to load, and the AVI one wasn't on the list.
I wasn't sure wether it was best for me to edit that text file and add the AVI exporter to the list or just delete the damn thing, so i checked on an older PC with the CS4 suite installed in it and the "txt" folder didn't even exist, so I just deleted it and opened up AME again and it loaded every single exporter .prm file including the ExporterAVI.prm of course and it works just fine now, so that's a load off my shoulders, hope this might help someone else in the future.

Weiche Überblendungen in Premiere CS4 werden zu hartem Schnitt bei AVI-Export

Beim Export einer geschnittenen Sequenz mit dem Media Encoder werden die Titelüberblendungen "Schwarz überblenden" nicht gerendert, sondern zu harten Schnitten. Bei der Ansicht in Premiere werden die Überblendungen richtig angezeigt, beim fertigen AVI-File sind die Überblendungen verschwunden und sind harte Schnitte. Hat jemand eine Idee, woran das liegen könnte und - vor allem - wie man das behebt?

Woran es liegt kann ich leider nicht sagen, aber zwei Lösungsmöglichkeiten anbieten:
Im Media Encoder CS4 gibt es bei den Exporteinstellungen in Höhe der Registerkarten "Filter / Multiplexer / Video / Audio / Andere" am rechten Rand eine unscheinbare Schaltfläche über die man u.a. steuern kann, ob man bereits vorhanden Vorschaudateien verwenden will. Diesen Punkt mal aktivieren: erstens ist der MediaEncoder dann schneller fertig, weil die bereits in Premiere gerenderten Vorschaudateien genutzt werden und zweitens sollten dann auch alle Effekte wie gewünscht im Export-File vorhanden sein.
Aufgrund der diversen Schwierigkeiten mit Premiere CS4 und dem MediaEncoder CS4 nutze ich für mich persönlich einen ziemlich sicheren Umweg: Alles, wofür ich nicht unbedingt Premiere CS4 benötige, erstelle ich in Premiere CS3 und exportiere es von dort direkt (ohne MediaEncoder, das geht da nämlich glücklicherweise noch!) als AVI-File. Das finale AVI-File (mit allen Tricks, Effekten und Blenden) übergebe ich dann je nach Exportwunsch an den MediaEncoder von CS3 oder CS4 zur Weiterverarbeitung.

Premiere CS4 to Encore CS4 Export Quality Problems

I recently purchased a non-linear editing machine with an RTX2 Matrox Card and CS4 Professional. After six or seven projects, I finally noticed that all my imported .avi files exported through Adobe Media Encoder and burned through Encore CS4 are not as crisp, sharp, or look like the original high quality SD footage after the DVD is burned like it always used to look in CS2. ( jumped from CS2 to CS4)
These DVDs were of plays, football, and basketball games. It seems that when the camera shoots a close up, the video looks fine but after you shoot from a distance, there is a considerable difference in the footage. ( alomost blurry) I just caught this and nobody has complained but I watched one of my older DVDs I produced with CS2 and it had no quality loss whatsoever. There is a night and day difference
For the sequences, I am using Matrox SD, NTSC, Standard, 720 x 486 and capturing with firewire through the Matrox card. The raw footage is beautiful. The Video Preview Option is NTSC Standard and the Codec is NTSC Matrox DV/DV Cam.
I can playback a timeline from the Matrox card and burn directly to a DVD burner and the footage is perfect, but when I export, I have chosen Microsoft .avi file, Matrox DV/DV Cam/ MPEG2, and MPEG2DVD.
I have even changed the sequences codec to Matrox MPEG-2 I-Frame and tried exporting using that out of Adobe Media Encoder and am getting the same results.
None of my customers have complained yet, but I definitely do not want to continue producing almost blurry DVDs.
I am using Adobe Premiere CS4 Version 4.1.0 and Encore CS4 Version 4.0.1.048 and Matrox Version 4.1.0.23
Can this problem be related to and eliminated by updating my CS4 Production Suite and my Matrox Software.
I was wondering if anyone had experienced this same issue and what solution they came up with or if anyone knew if the updates would correct this important issue. I just filmed a lengthy play that I have to author through Encore CS4 and I cannot release any more of my productions until this problem is solved. This is a big dollar production and I need some assistance on this matter as soon as possible. Thanks Jimi White

Thanks for taking the time to help me out. I just purchased my non-linear with CS4 Production Suite and the Matrox RTX2. I have several projects that I am working on right now and I was advised by Adobe, Matrox, and my non-linear vendor, 1 Beyond, to finish those projects before performing updates.
I also found out that If I export using the MPEG2 8Mbps, it cleared up the video dramatically. We had to go through a number of export presets in order to find out what worked best in Encore. I am going to try to finish the project now and will advise on the results.
This is a basketball highlight DVD and that's when I noticed the problem. My other productions were photos to music, and non sporting events and I didn't notice any problems with those DVDs ( they actually looked decent. Worst part about it was, I finished the project once and burned 18 DVDs, and then reviewed one of them and found the problem. I have to start over and just eat the DVDs printed and all.
Thanks again, it was nice of you to get back to me.

Avi file won't import into Premiere CS4 after re installing

Recently I purchased a new PC (Windows 7 64 bit, i7 processor). I re installed Premiere Pro CS4 and copied over my project files from my old system (Windows Vista 64 bit, AMD quad core processor). I attempted to load a project that was created on the old system, which contained an avi file that was done in AE CS5, the avi file was not downloaded from a camera. When Premiere kept locking up when I attempted to load the project, I finally figured out that it was getting hung up trying to load this avi file. After further investigation, I found that the avi file wouldn't play using any type of player, including WM Player, and DivX player. Funny enough, QT played the file, but only after a delay of about 10 minutes before opening. All of the posts I've seen on the forums indicate codec issues. I've installed three different codes, and used gspot to inspect the file and it indicated "no codec needed".
I must reiterate that on my old system, the file was created in AE CS5 and exported as an avi, and works fine.
Can anyone shed some light
