Exporting C100 footage from an edited timeline proving impossible help!!!!

The Canon C100 I now know shoots in a formate called PsF which is a type of interlaced that is but isn't interlaced? Yes I'm kind of confused.  Anyway Premiere reads the footage I shot as 1080i and 29.97fps though I shot it at 1080p and 23.976.  Yes I've talked to Canon Cinema EOS tech support team about this and they say they have no answers that it depends on the NLE I am using. I'm using Premiere CC on a Macbook Pro Retina, 15" fully loaded. 
I decided to edit a timeline that Adobe chooses when adding the footage to it automatically. I export and I keep getting the error message. "Unknown error" HELP!!!

I tried it both ways, I was on the phone with an Adobe rep who took control of my computer. We were on the phone for two hours while we tried different things. Here's what we found out. The mercury playback engine doesn't like the C100 footage. You can take Red Epic 6k footage and edit without a hitch with a macbook pro retina 15" but not the C100. I turned the renderer to "software only" and it took 10 times as long but it exported.  So for this particular project that's what I'll have to do.  As for Clipwrapped footage, it doesn't matter, Mercury hates it.  So it's time for Premiere to address the C100 directly. NOT AVCHD assuming that AVCHD is the same across the board because it isn't.  This whole PsF flavor of it is a pain to work with in any NLE. Anyway I'll keep researching. Thanks

  • Exporting HD footage from Avid (PC) for use in FCP (MAC)

    Hello,
    Here is my issue, there was and HD shoot of my business for local promotional use. I wanted the footage for marketing purposes down the road. I put together most of our promotional video using FCP 5.1.4. The footage was edited on a PC Avid system and exported using an animation codac to quicklime. (This is what the editor said would work)
    The footage will not play back correctly, starts off playing for the first second or so and freezes. When I import it into a sequence and render it I can here audio but the canvas remains black. Before I have them export this thing again I wanted to make sure it wasn't an issue on my end. Below are the clip details and CPU info. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Animation files are much too large data-wise to play back. YOu need to use Compressor to convert them into a codec that is more editable. DVCPRO HD for example...or ProRes. Depending on what hard drives you are trying to play this footage from.
    Animation is a good transfer codec, but it needs to be converted.

  • Exporting HD footage from AVID Adrenaline

    I have some raw HD footage (1080P) that I want to export from AVID Adrenaline and import into FCP 6.0.2. I'd like to keep the loss of quality to a minimum. Which AVID Codec should I use to export the footage?

    What are available that are consistent with the FCP Easy set ups?
    I don't have an AVID, so you need to determine that

  • Exporting HD footage from Final Cur Pro 7

    Hi everyone.
    Sorry to ask such a basic question but im just getting back into this and theres been some changes since I last used FCP.
    I am working on a music video clip. The footage was shot in 1080p and the files were m2ts. I used clipwrap to convert them to Apple Pro Res 422HQ to edit in FCP 7.
    I am now ready to export. I know I dont want to use quicktime conversion because I want to keep the file in as high quality as I can, and I am aware that quicktime conversion uses compression in its process.
    So my question is what settings do I use to export it out as to keep it in its original HD quality format?
    The second part of my question is this- If I want to burn a DVD of this file I need to run the file through compressor. What setting do I use in compressor to keep it at as high quality as possible?
    thanks for any advice in advance!

    Thankyou very much. I just want to understand the process a bit more.
    When I converted the files to Apple pro res 244 HQ, did the files loose quality? That means that if I export my filmclip out at 'current settings', it will be exported out as apple prores244 HQ. Is this very high quality compared to my original clips that were 1920 x 1080p m2ts?
    Sorry for any silly questions, just trying to understand the whole process!
    Thanks!

  • Exporting HD Footage from iMovie

    I shot some video on my minio HD cam, and I want to edit it in iMovie and export it to Facebook.
    If I export it as a .mv files, it takes way to long to upload. However, if I do it as an mp4 it's small enough but I love a lot of quality in the picture.
    What settings are the best to export to Facebook and keep the quality?

    Hi
    The reason you don´t find ProRes is that you need FCP for that.
    Convert your footage to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec), that is what imovie uses for HD footage

  • Export clips separately from multitrack edit bombing Audition 2015 CC

    attaching a screencast. Everything is up to date.
    Mac
    Yosemite
    latest everything.
    This hasn't happened before.
    Any help appreciated as I have LOTS to edit/export (and before explaining how I'm going about this wrong, trust me that I've tried many options. Doing it this way (soloing tracks in Audition to edit / batch process / level) is saving hours... or would be if I could save the tracks individually once they're edited.  It's SUPPOSED to work per manuals/websites/help screens.
    In the screencast I get an error message before it bombs.
    That was new.
    Last night, when this happened several dozen times, I never got the error message. #stepintherightdirection
    Screencast of session

    The screen capture wasn't a high enough resolution where I could read the crash report.  Any chance you can send that to me?  You can find it again by opening Applications > Utilities > Console.app  then expose User Diagnostic Reports.  You should see entries for each time Audition crashed - drag one of them into an email as an attachment and send it to [email protected] and I'll take a look.
    I did just try it on my own system without any problems, and if it was working before then something else must be amiss.  The crash report may give us the right clues to start troubleshooting.

  • Unable to import or export ratings & labels from PC to MAC...HELP PLEASE!

    I want to copy my cache files from a PC with windows OS to a mac in order to keep labels, ratings etc visible in my mac. But, I can't manage this transfer successfully even though i've tried through tools>build and export cache. Can anyone tell me how to transfer the cache files from the pc to the mac and so that the cache file are actually legible in the Adobe Bridge in the mac?

    Can anyone tell me how to transfer the cache files from the pc to the mac and so that the cache file are actually legible in the Adobe Bridge in the mac?
    Assuming you did use Bridge also on PC the labels and ratings should be available after just copy files from PC to Mac, either directly or via external HD. (Mac reads most of the HD formats but not al of them!)
    Labels, rating and IPTC metadata are stored in the file itself when using common formats like jpeg, PSD Tiff etc. DNG files have the info also written in the file itself. Only Raw files use a side car XMP file to store this data in.
    If you have set the option to save image settings in Sidecar XMP files (on by default in the camera raw preferences in Bridge) all your info is already stored in those files (same filename as the raw but with the file extension .xmp instead of the raw format)
    Bridge handles XMP files as hidden so to see if you have them go to the menu View and select 'show hidden files'. When the sort order is at filename you will see the XMP icons next to the image thumb itself.
    Or just look in the folder where you stored them on your hard drive.
    On your Mac Bridge needs to cache them first so that takes some time but then your rating and labeling should also appear again. ( I don't think it is wise to copy the cache files because the systems are different but that is just a guess, not experience. However new cache build dis not much work and with a lot of files you can do it overnight)
    If you have also build a keyword list you should export the list on your PC (use the little wing menu top right of the keyword panel) and import the list again using the same menu in Bridge. The keywords are also still in the file but will appear in italic until you choose to make them persistent with right mouse click. That is however a lot of work and export import of the keyword list will solve that.
    And feel free to try, you are only copying the files (and you already had made an extra back up, ain't it...) so nothing bad can happen then

  • CS4 with HD footage from Canon HV30 - will new CPU help?

    Hi guys,
    I've just dumped an hour of Mini HDV footage onto my system, and the playback constantly stutters - the video pauses for a second at a time. My first guess was my CPU, but now that I've read other posts here, it may just be CS4.  I'm using Windows 7 Release Candidate 64-bit.  I have 4GB RAM and an Intel E2180 CPU.   I was thinking of upgrading to an Intel E8400, but maybe not if CS4 is just buggy.
    Any thoughts?

    Hey Josh,
    I am building a new Windows system around an i7 and saw your post about Windows 7. I really like the idea of a leaner, faster OS, but I have two questions that I thought you might be able to address:
    1. The Windows 7 web page states that when the RC version expires, "To avoid interruption, you'll need to install a non-expired version of Windows before March 1, 2010. You'll also need to install the programs and data that you want to use."
    That part about needing to installs the programs...does that mean that I'll have to effectively wipe my system drive clean and reload WIndows 7 and CS4, etc again? (versus just updating Windows 7)
    2.  I'm not experienced with dual boot and I've read on this forum that it is not recommended to partition your system drive. What is your experience with using a dual boot system...as far as any speed penalty from the partition. (I admit that I may be making an incorrect assumption around why partitiioning was discouraged, ie, don't put OS on one partition and data on another...I get that)
    3. Should I research every component of my new system to check W7 compatibility (MOBO, GPU, etc) or is it so similar to Vista that most everything works fine?
    Thanks for any advice!

  • "unexpected error" when w export a film from Adobe CS6 Project manager? Help?

    When trying to copy over a production via Project manager to another drive the system seems to be exporting the media etc and at the very end it says "Unexpected Error. Save yoru file and retry." We've done this several times and been on the phone with tech support for eleven hours and no joy.
    Anyone have any ideas? We are on 6.01 and this is still a buggy program.

    Yes,
    I am producing TV shows for FOX TV in LA. We completed editing a 30 minute special for local broadcast. We need to get the piece off of our machine in the contract studio and over to sound so that we can do a sound EQ. I am using the following process.
    Project Manager> Source is the film sequence with a small animation piece> Collect files and copy to a new location (our esternal media/show drive) Includes all files The project size is 125 GB. and resulting project size calculates at 125 Gb.
    We next select OK and the project manager seems to be copying the project to a new location. It takes about 30 minutes and when the time bar reaches 98% it cashes. We get a diaglouge that says "an unexpected error has occured please save and try again."
    We have spent hours on the phone with tech support and gone through a number of ideas inclduing checking for Microsoft conflicts etc. No joy. The machine this is on is not a server. It's a Dell on Windows 7 running 16GB of RAM but no Cuda card.
    We have deadline to meet and this is not helping. If we can;t do this here we will recut the show in FCP on the MAC. I prefer Premiere but at least FCP works.
    Please advise and thank you.

  • Trying to export .MTS footage filmed in 1080i

    Hi, I recently bought a sony HDR-XR150 camcorder and am filming in HD FX 1080i and the quality is amazinggg when I hook it up to the TV via HDMI. but when I export the footage from iMovie '11 the image quality isn't nearly as good. I've tried exporting with multiple different settings and I cannot figure out how to keep the quality of the footage once it's exported. Can somebody give me some tips?
    Thank you,
    Justin

    Hi, Justin.
    I bought recently a SONY HDR-XR550VE camcorder with 1080i resolution. I wanted to work with iMovie in HD.
    What was my surprise that when I imported videos in HD from the camcorder (verified that the clips was in HD 1080i playing these clips directly from the camera to the HD TV) the films are imported in iMovie '11 in standard definition!!. It was impossible to import in HD. I tried everything without results. The clips are imported in STD (standard definition).
    I investigated a little bit in Google and the answer to import videos in HD to iMovie'11 from the SONY HDR-XR550VE is:
    - Install Turbo.264 HD Video Converter from ELGATO (not very expensive).
    - Import videos in 1080p to my Mac from the camera.
    - Place the import clips in a local folder of my Mac.
    - Rename the files and make them sort (f.e.: clip1.mov)
    - Open iMovie and choose "Import from file"
    - Select the desired files to import
    - And.. thats it!.
    With these steps I have HD1080p clips to work in iMovie '11
    I hope this helps.
    Regards.

  • Export video clip from Premiere into an existing Encore project

    New to encore.....love the software so far....but not much experience with it yet. Here is my question:
    How do I go about exporting a video clip from premiere CS3 into an open/existing encore project. When I try to export to encore from the prem. timeline it makes a new proj. Sometimes I want to render out and export more than one asset into the same encore proj. but cant seem to figure out how to do that. any help would be great.
    Thanks,
    Eric

    thanks J.....I have been doing it all along the way that you suggested. Just wondered if there might be a more efficient way to bring in multiple files. I appreciate your help with this....now at least I know that I am not doing things in a more difficult manner than necessary.
    Thanks again!

  • Error in character spacing when exporting to pdf from word 07

    I am having trouble with exporting to pdf from MS Word 07.  The character spacing throughout the document is wacky.  This also happens when exporting to pdf from a GIS program.
    Any help?

    I use the term export because that is how it is done in the GIS software that I use - ArcMap 10.
    In MS Word I access Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 through the print menu. I am using Windows 7.
    I do not always have this trouble, but it started yesterday on a 30 page word doc and then after that, it started on an ArcMap doc.
    As for embedding fonts, when I check the Word doc as you suggested, i see many different fonts listed.  Some are embedded, some embedded subset, some are not embedded at all.  I use styles to manage font types and heading levels.  There is nothing fancy about it - all Times New Roman.

  • Exporting multiple projects from FCP timeline hangs

    When rendering multiple projects from Final Cut Pro's timeline through compressor, I get varied results. I am rendering 3 files - Apple Pro Res, MPEG-2 (VBR Highest quality for Blu-Ray), & 48khz AIFF audio file.
    Typically we will set up 3 projects for one night to render overnight (30 minutes to 1 hour for each project). In the morning when we come in compressor will sometimes show up as 90 hours remaining, sometimes it will still be cranking out on the last project with 12 hours remaining. If we leave it going it will eventually finish. However when we shut everything down, reboot computer, start export from timeline and it completes the render in HALF the time compressor stated remaining before we closed it. Each project typically takes 6-8 hours to get all three files (pro res, MPEG-2, AIFF) we allow 18 hours for render.
    Drive space should not be an issue. We have a 5 TB array (typically has 2 TB free for 4 projects), system drive has 350 GB free and the 4 projects rendered out will take up approximately 300 GB. The project reads, and writes to the array for everything.
    Any help on trying to figure out why compressor slows down over time. Once restarting compressor goes as expected.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

    All software is up to date latest versions of FCP and Compressor.

    This is like an EDL...Edit Decision List.  This basically is a metadata rich document that is used to transfer clip information between systems.  You can export an XML from FCP 7 to FCP 6 so that you can open a sequence, or a project.  Export an XML of the sequence and open that up in Excel to have clip name, reel and timecode information for tracking footage.

  • How can I automatically change my edited timeline from 24fps into 25fps?

    Hello everyone,
    I have a timeline in 24fps with 24fps footage. I have to convert it (the timeline and the footage) into 25fps, so I can put a 25fps Timecode in it (it was a 24fps 16mm film material and it has to be rescan in 25fps...). Is there a way to do that? I mean beside of reedit everything in a 25fps timeline. The footage was quicktime prores 4444, I made merged clips of it and edited it then, so I have only merged clips on the timeline.
    I would be very thankful for any suggestions!

    Hi Richard, unfortunately I need to burn in Timecode from the source clips, so this won`t help me:/ but thanks for your answer! I think the only possibility for me is to create a new timeline in 25fps, modify the source footage from 24 into 25fps and reedit it. Is there any way to use command match frame (and reversed match frame) from merged clips in a timeline to source material from which I created the merged clips? so the source footage and not the used merged clip will be loaded into the source monitor? it would make a reedit much much faster...
