How do I retain the original video frame size in Premiere Pro?

I have imported a video file (MPEG) to Premiere Pro but it seems to crop the image so part of the picture is missing. Is there a way of retaining the original frame size? Thanks!

    Philip, dragging from iPhoto will export previews of the image, not the original high resolution image. To export higher quality versions from iPhoto don't drag, but use "File > Export"
    You can also mail your photo directly from within iPhoto using "Share > Email" and set the "Size" to "Actual Size (Full Quality)"

  • How do I set custom frame size in Premiere Pro 5.5 sequence.

    I need to set a custom frame size in Premiere Pro 5.5.
    I can't edit a preset so how do I create my own?

    If you realy feel 'lazy' or have no idea what settings to choose you can drag the clip the into the New Item icon. This will create a matching sequence.

  • How do I retain the original HD standards after editing with iMovie ?

    Hello,
    I have a camcorder that uses AVCHD. The image size is 1080 x 1440 and the audio codec is Dolby Digital at 448 kbps.
    I can import these movies in to iMovie with no problem at all, likewise I can edit them and make a project.
    However, when it come to sharing or publishing the project, the highest quality option I have is 'Apple TV' at a resolution of 960x540 with the sound being linear PCM stereo.
    Is it possible to retain the original frame size of 1080 x 1440 with the original audio codec of Dolby Digital at 448 kbps ?

    Well, being honest, I don't know that I need this. I was thinking that if I retain the original file size I would retain the quality.
    I plan to store my finished project not on DVD but on my PS3 which has an external drive to hold my home movies.
    When I view the original files in the 'raw' AVCHD format on the PS3 the image is ever so slightly better and I get to use the Dolby Digital soundtrack.
    When I view my finished iMovie projects the frame size
    (but not the picture) is reduced and this seems to be causing some very slight judder during panning shots. Also the soundtrack is just linear PCM.
    I was theorising, that by retaining the original settings I would remove the slight judder and get to keep the digital soundtrack.
    Is this the right approach ? or is something else causing these two issues ?

  • How does iMovie store the original video?

    I have some video files on an external HD from my old computer with iMovie 08. On my new iMac with iMovie 09, I have opened up one of those video files, or imported it. My question is this: Is there any need to keep the original file from my old computer, or has it now been stored on my new one with iMove 09? I'm thinking if I keep the old one, I am storing it twice. I am backing up my iMac, so that's not an issue. I'm just trying to figure out if I am keeping a "third" copy when it's not really needed.

    From the PixelGrabber docs:
      int alpha = (pixel >> 24) & 0xff;
      int red   = (pixel >> 16) & 0xff;
      int green = (pixel >>  8) & 0xff;
      int blue  = (pixel      ) & 0xff;I've used this in code that slices an image into a 10x10 grid and
    figures out the "main color" in each cell. Do it twice, compare
    the result and you can tell if Image A is a scaled version of Image B.
    Given that my code works, I'd have to say that the storage described
    here is accurate !
    Hope this helps !

  • When I try to save an email attached file, the file name is automatically convertied to "attachment.ashx" although the correct file type is recognized. How do I retain the original file name?

    This problem occurred after the most recent update to firefox 8.0.
    After right clicking on the attached file, I click on save link as.
    The correct file type is recognized. However the file name is converted to "attachment.ashx".
    When I rename the file, it downloads properly and is opened by the appropriate program.
    However, I should not have to rename each downloaded file.
    In particular, this is happening with Word files and with Scientific Notebook (.tex) files.

    Cor-el, thank you for your advice. I was able to navigate to my Profile Folder and I deleted the mimeTypes.rdf file. I then closed Firefox and restarted it. The problem was still there, and I found that the mimeTypes.rdf file had been re-created.
    I tried your second suggestion, but the files you mentioned were not present so there was nothing to reset.
    Any other suggestions?

  • How do I retain the original file name when using Compressor?

    Hello,
    I am in the process of doing a batch export and would like to keep everything identical to the source material, including the name. There is quite a bit of footage so deleting the "-Apple ProRes 422 for Progressive material" addition can be time consuming.
    Any suggestions?
    I found this thread:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2369070
    but even though I read it more than 10 times I could not set a "custom" path in my destination options.
    I only have the following options available from the pulldown:
    -Cluster Storage
    -Desktop
    -Source
    -Users movie folder
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    As was mentioned in the thread you linked to, the easiest way is to create a custom Destination. Here are some step-by-step instructions:
    1. Click the Destinations tab.
    2. Click the plus sign in the upper right and choose "Local..."
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19589/Compressor%20Custom%20Destination.png
    3. Navigate to or create your destination folder. Click "Open" to select the destination.
    At this point, you've created a new custom destination. To select it, click the disclosure triangle next to the "Custom" folder. This is where all of your custom destinations are located.
    4. Select the custom destination you want to use for your batch.
    5. In the inspector, you'll see a box where you can change the "Output Filename Template". By default, it'll just have "Source File Name". If that's all you want, then press return.
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19589/Compressor%20Destination%20Inspector.png
    Now, when you go back to your batch window and apply this custom destination to your job settings, Compressor will apply the Output Filename Template to your filenames. Basically, it will get rid of the setting name (as long as you only have "Source File Name" in the Filename Template.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to enable  CUDA controls in Video Levels effect in Premiere Pro

    I saw a video tutorial where he demoed a control in the Levels effect under video adjustments. CUDA is enabled on my Macbook Pro Retina. Why don't I see the control?

    The controls have nothing to do with cuda.
    I dont see any controls in CC7 on a Mac. However I do see them on Windows.
    BUT you are not missing out on anything, the histogram for input levels is worthless.
    Use the Wavefrom or RGB parade instead.

    How can I keep my audio track, delete a short segment of video, and reinsert a new video clip, without changing the audio with the way it lines up with the original video?

    If you have either iMovie 09 or iMovie 11 you can do this easily using the Cutaway feature.
    Go to iMovie/Preferences and make sure that the Advanced Tools are enabled.
    Now you jut drag and drop the 2nd clip onto hte first clip at the frame where you want the Cutaway to start. A popup menu will appear. Choose Cutaway.
    Here is a good Tutorial.
    If you have iMovie 08, let me know. There is a way to do it, but it is more complex.

  • Exporting 7 min. video from Aperture and received error.  How can I get the original back?

    I uploaded a video from my iphone 5 into Aperture and then I tried to export it to my desktop.  After I clicked on Export, it attempted to export for a while but then gave me an error message saying that 0 of 1 videos was exported and it couldn't export.  Now it shows the video in the album in Aperture, but it won't play and I can't do anything with it.  I have tried to recall the original but it says there is no original and it says there are no referenced files when I try to reference the files.  The clip also shows an arrow pointing to the right with a yellow triangle by it.  This is located in the bottom right of the image, right next to the video icon.  My concern is that I tried to export the original.  Any ideas on how I can fix this and get the video back?

    The clip also shows an arrow pointing to the right with a yellow triangle by it.  This is located in the bottom right of the image, right next to the video icon.
    Is that the badge you are seeing? Then Aperture has lost the connection to the original video file.
    Now it shows the video in the album in Aperture, but it won't play and I can't do anything with it.  I have tried to recall the original but it says there is no original and it says there are no referenced files when I try to reference the files. 
    You tried to reconenct and locate the referenced file? Then you probably imported the video as "Managed" and then the commands for referenced files do not work.
    Look directly into your Aperture library package, if the video is still there:
    Select the Aperture Library in the Finder and ctrl-click(or right click) it.
    Then select "Show Package Contents" from the pop-up.
    In the Finder window that opens scroll down to the "Masters" folder and open its subfolder "2013" and then go to the month and day, when you imported your video. Do you see your video there, or any imports at all?
    If you see the video in your library package, copy it to the Desktop, ad check, if you camn play it.
    What do you see?

  • How can I add photos to a video without interrupting the sound of the original video?

    In PE11, How can I add photos to a video without interrupting the sound of the original video?

    Thanks for getting your details posted. Good job.
    You further explained
    I am simply wanting to “overlay” a new visual element without disturbing the underlying audio.
    A classical way to do a Premiere Elements Overlay is to hold down the Ctrl key of the computer main keyboard and drag the new clip over the area of the one you want to replace on the Timeline. That should not do anything but replace one portion of the video on the Timeline. No change in duration video or audio track if you are dealing with video linked to audio.
    If you hold down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard, I am envising a scenario where you want to add to (not replace) some Timeline content.
    A just in case note, if you have video on Video 1 and 2 and the video in 2 does not have transparent areas in it, then all you will see is the Video 2 content. I believe that Hunt eluded to that concept as a possible technique for what you might be doing.
    Another just in case, if you have not seen the following Adobe documentation on arranging clips, you might be interested in the following link

  • Is there a way to easily batch convert hundreds of video files to h.264, while retaining the original dimensions, metadata, etc.?

    I am organizing my library of stock video footage so is easily view (show to clients) and access. I need advice for two things:
    First: What is a good program to catalog footage in? I am considering using iTunes because I already have it and I could setup smart folders to easily organize footage.
    Second: I would like to encode all the footage to h.264 so I can preview it in Quicktime and add it to an iTunes library. My problem is all the footage is in a wide variety of dimensions, formats, framerates, strange codecs etc. I have access to Adobe Media Encoder and Apple Compressor. Is there a way to easily batch convert hundreds of video files to h.264, while retaining the original dimensions, metadata, etc.?
    I have tried using a watch folder in AME but it freezes every time I add the folder...
    Thanks for any help!
