Exporting video comes out square?

I've been making some pretty basic scratch footage with my Canon PowerShot SD-850 IS's video mode (30px, 640x480). My timeline is set to DV-NTSC. When I export from FCE as a quicktime movie, however, my video is squashed into a completely square resolution (I'm assuming 480x480.) Any idea why this is happening? (I've tried messing with the export settings in quicktime conversion, and the same issue keeps happening.)

Hi, wish I had the answer, but I am having similar problems. I have mixed source files in my time line (960x540 and 720x524) and although this worked for the first movie I made, it now squishes the width when I export. I think I am hoping for similar information -- how to manage this so no squishing takes place.

Exported video comes out black...

Hi–
So I've been working on a sequence that involves a combination of live action and animation, where the animation was brought in as a PNG sequence.
In the timeline view, everything is 100% fine, but when I export the video the animated portions come out fine and the live action footage comes out black (with the occasional green scan lines).
Any idea why this might be and how to fix it?

I have Adobe Elements 9 and I used to be able to export HD 1080p videos with no issue. But recently, when I export using H.264 MPEG or MPEG 2, which I normally used, the high resolution videos come out very choppy. How can i fix this?

Are you running the 9.0.1 Update of the program and on what computer operating system is it running?
Is your video card/graphics card driver up to date according to the manufacturer of the card?
Is your computer optimized, including maintenance of pile ups of preview files, conformed audio files, and conformed video files?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1?
What are your project settings and what are the properties of your source media? When you say that "used to be able to export...." is that on the same computer, same brand/model/settings for the camera recording the video now in use, same Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1?
Where player are you using for the playback of these exports?
Please give us more details on the size of the projects (then and now) as well as details of the customized export settings in your Share/Computer/ route. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 is only a 32 bit application running in 32 bit or 64 bit system. Not sure if computer resources might be taxed more so now than before.

Rendered video comes out blue

I seem to be having an issue with video rendered from within Premier (Pro CS5) where the video comes out in blue. By rendered within Premier I mean either rendering previews (hitting "Enter" while in the timeline), or by choosing the "Export" button rather and "Queue" in the export dialog.
Still images render normally colored, it's only the video clips in the timeline that render blue.
Everything works fine when queuing files for rendering in the Media Encoder, it's only when I render from within Premier that I get the blue video.
Anyone else see this kind of behavior?
TIA

Interesting findings. I would definitely file a Bug Report on this. This ARTICLE will give you some tips and the link.
This reminds me of a Bug in PrElements, at about PrE 7, or 8. When a Cross-Dissolve was added, there was a white "flash" just at the junction of the two Clips. This could be eliminated by changing the Opacity of the Clips to 99.0%. IIRC, this Bug was fixed by PrE 9, but maybe it's too early to tell.
Good luck, and thank you for reporting. With adequate documentation, Adobe should be able to reproduce the issue in the lab, and get to a fix.

Videos Come Out Small with Black Space Around-Nikon coolpix L820

Everytime I export a video from premiere pro it comes out small with black space around the edges-- like this: Above All Odds, Bobby Maze: Episode 1 - YouTube
How would you suggest I fix this within the settings and how I export it?

Hi,
What is the Frame size of the Video?
In the Project Bin, right click on the File and create a New Sequence from Clip.
Export the File in the same Frame size as you video.
Thank You

Final Cut Studio 3 installed - and in FCP and Motion, video comes out white

My system meets all the requirements, I've got QT 7.6.4 (and it is pro registered). I did a fresh install of FCS3. When I load anything into an FCP project, the audio plays but video just comes out white (with the exception of an mpg I tried bringing in that did show properly). Also, in Motion, when I load a template, it shows drop zones but all of the graphics are not visible, even when going into "layers".

The video is QT clips and FCP movie (QT exports) from previous work in older versions. It does play fine in QT, so that's not the problem. I also checked and indeed RGB is selected, so it's no an alpha problem.
When I import an mpg, it shows fine in the Viewer. When I import a jpg picture into a new project, it shows as a multicoloured rough image. Video clips just show as white. If I drag that jpg down to the timeline, it shows as White in the Canvas.

HT201471 Does anyone know if video comes out of the headphone jack like the Itouch does on a Ipad3?

I was wondering if the video out put comes out of the headphone jack on a Ipad3 like it does on a Itouch?

No. Video will need to be shared via Home Sharing, Airplay or using an AV adapter.

Why is "Export Video" greyed out? I need to export an AVI (PP2.0)

Yes, I'm still on PP 2.0. I've never seen this until today where Premiere won't allow me to export my AVI with video as Microsoft DV AVI. It will if I switch it to Microsoft AVI. (See screen print image.)
I've re-booted, I've tried importing the settings that I had previously saved for times like this. Still nothing. When I open ANY project, now, I have the same issue. Any ideas?
I remember with an old version of Premiere when something quarky like this happened we'd have to delete the prefs and then re-open the project for the prefs to reset. Is there something like that for this?

Problem solved. In the past, I have actually had Video mistakenly uncheck and rendered out AVI's that were audio only. (I only work with DV AVI's, although it's entirely possible a setting got switched to the non-DV.) So this time I simply panicked when I saw it grayed out and don't ever remember it being like that. Hunt, you are right that even though it was grayed out, it was still checked, so I did a test movie and the video IS there. I'm a bit embarrassed that I didn't try this sooner. I simply panicked. Thanks guys!

Moving photos and videos from iPhone, to iPhoto, to external harddrive. Videos come out to be less than 0 seconds. HELP, PLEASE!

Hi guys! This is my first discussion and I'm not exactly sure what kind of details to put, so I'll just be as detailed as possible. I hope I don't confuse anyone. I really REALLY need help!
I've got a 16 GB iPhone 4S and always find myself filling up my phone with photos and videos, so I upload both onto my MacBook Pro 2011. Now that my laptop's getting full... I'm uploading all of those backed up photos and videos onto a 500 GB Seagate external harddrive.
All of my photos open just fine. It's the videos that I'm worried about. All of the videos that I've loaded from last year (2013) are playing well. Anything before 2013 aren't opening properly. I'm opening the video files directly from my external harddrive. It goes:
     1) Opens up QuickTime Player
     2) Shows that it's converting
     3) Shows a frame from the video, but the time says 0:00-0:00.
I had a LOT of videos from before 2013 and would like to retrieve them if possible. They're no longer on my laptop though. All of the video files are 20 KB - 980 KB and has to convert on quicktime player for me to watch them. Some of the video files I've tried out were from 2013 and 24 KB and opened just fine. I've opened both ~20KB - ~900 KB video files before 2013 and they're all 0:00-0:00 time length. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks!

I have the same issue. We've lost all of our older videos including videos of our children and since passed family dog. I have no idea why this has happened. I have backed up religiously, but now even the archived photos are 0 seconds. So frustrated with iPhoto. This is the second time this awful software mysteriously lost pictures or videos. Last time it was the birth pictures of my second daughter. And now this. Horrible horrible product.
Older videos are all now just 0:00:00 in length. We did not alter these at all!!
HELP!!

Lightroom 3 exporting issue: exported JPGs come out with much more noise than original edited files

Hi all,
My first post here so nice to meet everyone. I've been having some issues with exporting in Lightroom recently. It appeared to happen quite out of the blue. Sometimes when I export my edited .cr2 files as jpgs (in srgb), at a good quality (no less than 85), some of resulting jpgs seem to have exposure higher and/or a horribly large increase in the amount of visable noise. It seems many of the photos which this occurs in have pretty high settings for fill light, but even still, the noise is not visable in lightroom while editing the metadata linked .cr2.
I thought it might be the problem that I'm viewing the final exported jpgs in preview, but I also tried adding them back into the catalog and they look just as off. I just upgraded to 3.3, but it seems to be having the same issue. If anyone can please help, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

No sharpening at all during my export, Ian. Sometimes I sharpen for screen at a standard strength, but I turned it off when I started seeing the extra artifacts but the results of the exports remains basically the same with or without sharpening.
However when I import it seems my photos already have some sharpening on them in the develop module. The settings there are sharpening = 25, radius = 1, Detail = 25, masking = 0. I honestly rarely mess with the sharpening, so I guess I skipped over those settings during the countless hours I have worked with LR! But I assume those are normal post import numbers, correct? I never apply development settings during import, that's why I say that. Thanks for keeping up the conversation and brainstorming Ian! Anyone else also free to chime in.

My audio files are mixed in STEREO but when exported they come out MONO ?

I'm working on a music video project and have been sent AIF files that are in stereo.
However, when they are imported into FCP, they seem to be coming out to mono. I don't do anyhing to the file other than import and synch up to the video.
I'm not as well versed in the audio world, am I not doing something to the file or in the import process that is making it play in mono instead of stereo?
Thanks!

it might be just your sequence settings need changing
select your sequenec and press Command-0 (zero)
then switch to the Audio Outputs tab
if the Grouping is set to Dual Mono, then you can change it to Stereo and click Ok
see if it works

Help with HXR-NX70U Sony NEXCAM: in manual recording video comes out stroby

When I put this camcorder into manual recording the video looks stroby and records the same way. How can I avoid this and still record in manual?

Hi Guys,
thanx for your replies.
here's the latest:
Brian, I followed your instructions and the DVD burned successfully. However the video quality of the dvd when viewed on my TV ('ve tried on all 3 of my tvs now) is still a lot poorer than the quicktime movie that was imported into DVDSP4. When I play the original QT Movie on my Mac CRT monitor it looks a little blurry and grainy because I guess its non interlaced however when viewed on an external Video monitor it looks great - very sharp.
When I view the burned DVD on my television the picture quality looks like the non interlaced version of the original QT Movie that appeared on my Mac CRT and not the sharp interlaced (lower field) version that appeared on my external video monitor.
Its almost like taking a sharp jpeg into Photoshop and applying a gaussian blur of about 0.3 followed by jepg compression compressing it down to 5% quality!
I'm totally mystified. Can the conversion to Mpeg2 be removing all interlacing so that you get the less sharp computer monitor look? I just want the video on my final DVDs to be as good as the original source footage! I appreciate that along the way there might be loss of some quality but surely not that much?
Does this make sense to you guys or am I still doing something very wrong?
Robert: I have tried setting all manner of drives including a fresh external firewire HD with nothing on it (clean out of the box) but it doesn't seem to help.
Brian: I tried the no network suggestion a few months back but I'm not sure if I got it right. At the moment I have broadband through an external speedtouch usb modem and am also connected (occasionally although not for the last 3 months) via a crossover cable to my PCs ethernet card. When I last tried the No Network solution I had immense trouble getting my internet to work again! Can you please help me by directing me to the best ay to do this while protecting my internet settings?
any more help guys would be greatfully appreciated.

CS2 exported PDF comes out negative

A supplied PDF ad was placed in InDesign CS2. When the page is exported at 300 dpi, the halftone images within the ad are reversed to negative form. Everything else on the page is ok. Any ideas what's happening? If the ad is rasterized in Photoshop, there is not problem. I would just like to know what is causing this.

I replaced the preferences and that did not work. I played around with a few more export variations. It appears to export fine with CS3 and CS4, so I have to agree that there's something odd in the way CS2 handles the images. More specifically the manner in which is handles color. In using CS2, I can achieve the desired result if I change the output color to anything BUT "No color conversion." So it boils down to how CS2 handles the (monotone) spot black images that are created in Quark 7.
We certainly have many options to move forward with, but no concrete answer as to why it happens.
Thank you so much for your assistance.

Burns slow, video comes out green

Hi Folks,
I'm new to burning DVDS... but I'm not new to computers. When I load everything up on iDVD, it seems fine and normal.
I burn my DVD (which takes hours to encode) and then turn it on to watch. The title screen plays perfect, but as soon as I play the actual video, it plays an hour of green with no audio.
They are .avi files I've loaded onto iDVD, if that makes any difference.
Any ideas?
Thanks for the help!

4 hours to encode isn't bad - in the early days of iDVD with slower computers, we would let things encode over night.
I'm very suspicious of your AVI content. AVI is just a 'wrapper' that can contain content encoded by many different means - not all of which are iDVD compatible.
Open the file with the Apple Quicktime Player and do a WINDOW>SHOW MOVIE INSPECTOR
What video and audio format information is shown?

My videos come out blurry...

...after editing my videos and making them into quick time videos they look fine, but my problem is that when i put them on myspace there not as clear as they are on my computer, they look blurry/choppy. any ideas on how to fix this?

YouTube will cruch (compressed) your video after it has already been crunched.
If you read this you will understand that there are many variables.
