How do you export a Premiere Pro screen shot without distortion when importing into Photoshop?

How can I take a screen shot in Premiere Pro (CS6 or CC) without it becoming distorted? Lately, when doing this, the images are elongated. Then, when I bring the image into Photoshop, it looks fine, except that the Pixel Aspect Ratio has been automatically engaged. I seem to not be able to do anything to the image to correct it and when saved, it goes back to its distorted form. What am I doing incorrectly? What is the fix for this? Is this a Premiere issue or a Photoshop issue? BTW, I posed the same question on the Photoshop forum. SIDE NOTE: I tried to resolve this via a chat session...that was an exercise in futility.
Thanks!

The MTS files that I imported into my project are 1080i 29.97 fps, upper field first, 1.0 pixel aspect ratio.
I tried encoding an AVI with the Lagarith codec with these settings and had better results this time but the frame rate still stuttered.
I even tried making an MOV with the H.264 setting and had strange results.
I can make an H.264 MP4 at 1920x1080 with no problem.
What are the exact settings for an MOV or AVI just in case I missed something?  I really want to have an uncompressed file to archive that can be easily edited later on.  I'm thinking that MOV would be the most flexible format.

  • How do you re-install Premiere Pro CC?

    How can I re-install Premiere Pro cc? I had to restore my computer to a point before installation. Now CC downloader says I've already downloaded it.

    Hey,
    Had the same issue. First shut down Creative Cloud. Next navigate to the folder
    C:\Users\<your user>\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
    where <your user> is your user name. Delete the opm.db database file and restart the system. When you log in to creative cloud, it will index what you have and dont have installed and you should be able to reinstall it.
    Have you done the control panel - uninstall first for PP CC?

  • How do I correct the darkest blacks from becoming bright blue when imported into LR?

    When shooting in RAW with a Sony RX100M3 the darkest blacks become bright blue when imported into LR. Any ideas when this happens and how I can fix it?

    If this is occurring in the develop module the you have the shadow warning turned on and this shows as blue, just like the highlights show as red. You can turn this off by clicking the triangle in the upper left hand corner of the histogram.

  • How do I export a Premiere Pro CS4 file as a *.mov file?

    Hi,
    I got Premiere Pro CS4 some time back and never got round to properly learning to use it.  I've picked it up again and have put together a small video sequence to ensure I can create something simple for a start and that it publishes fine but I've encountered a problem at the publishing stage (and I want to use it in After Effects so this is irritating me):
    * I've finished the sequence and it's on my timeline in unexported form
    * I then click File-Export-Media to go to the export settings
    * In the settings I export as a Quicktime *.mov file and both the video and audio check boxes are checked and ready to go
    * The quality is 100% and the output name has a legitimate path on my computer
    * I click 'OK' and the save window closes and a smaller window says 'Exporting data/file/whatever it should say'
    * I then search for the saved file on my PC,  first in the path the save screen said,  then using the search box in the windows button and I find it hasn't saved anything and told me it has done
    Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to properly save my video on my PC as a *.mov file?  I looked on Youtube and a tutorial suggested I was doing everything right but I just can't see why this isn't saving properly.
    Advance thanks.

  • How do I export from Premiere Pro CC to Final Cut Pro X?

    Here are my system specs:
    iMac (late 2012)
    Fusion Drive
    Processor 3.1 GHZ Intel COre i7
    Memory 16GB 1600MHZ DDR3
    OSX 10.9.1
    Running
    Premiere Pro CC 7.2.1
    and FCP X 10.1
    Hello there,
    I have a fairly complex 3:00minute sequence that I want to export from Premiere using XML and then import into FCP X.
    I exported and the tranlation error log was too long so I duplicated, shortenened and simplified the sequence and the translation errors seemed much more manageable. I quit premiere pro and ran FCP X. Import->XML And the XML files were all greyed out! I couldnt even select them. I tried compying the entire project file including a copy of the XML into FCP and still no luck. Am I missing something here?

    Jim, some people (maybe not that many) are FCP X editors, so it's a good feature.
    Also, I personaly find Premiere 10 years back in terms of editing. FCP X in my opinion has more editing features to make my life easy. The last release has also been a great update.
    I have been editing in Premiere the whole year 2013, and I can't go back to the "old fashion" editing since i started editing in FCP X. but that's a matter of preference. The problem is that the other editors in my office use Premiere, so XML exchange is a must.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 has stopped working when importing music (Windows 8)

    I have a problem with Adobe premiere Pro CS6  on windows 8. When I use Premiere Pro CS6 for the first time, it's doesn't have any problem, but now I can't import music to Premiere Pro CS6 and it's say ''Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 has stopped working'', I don't know what should I do. How to fix it ?

    >started roughly around the same time on both computers
    Most likely cause is a Windows update that changed "something" about the video system
    Check the vendor site (NOT Windows update) for a newer video driver

  • Premiere Pro 2014 Application becomes unresponsive when importing a video from iPhoto

    Hello and good morning!
    I shot some sample footage using an iPhone 5. I shot just over a minute of sample footage. I imported the footage via the USB cable and my Macbook Pro 13 (2011).
    Following these steps causes the application to freeze indefinitely at the "Importing Files" dialog box.
    1.) File -> Import
    2.) Select iPhoto under the Media subsection
    3.) Select the movie and click import
    The application just freezes until I go to the activity monitor and force quit. Then I get the "Adobe Premiere Pro has encountered a serious error." Someone should look into this bug.
    Additional Info:
    Specs of the machine this happened on:
    Macbook Pro 13" Early 2011 (i7 2.7 GHz, 16GB, 480 SSD)  
    Specs of the machine at my home workstation that doesn't have this issue:
    Custom Built (4770K 16GB DDR3 256SSD RenderOutput 2TB SSHD Scratch 1TB WD Black) w/ 3 Dell Ultrasharps
    For those of you that are curious. I doing a pilot video project of sorts. A behind the scenes video for a fashion photographer who is a friend. It was my idea since I wanted to try something new. The photographer likes the idea because its something to add to his portfolio about his work. However, for this project I'm basically on my own and I need to produce a viable product before I convince myself to invest in a decent video camera. 

    Thanks for the reply however, this issue is isolated to the use case I mentioned above. The video imports fine once I copy the file and import the file directly; say I copy the file to my desktop then add the file. I know about the variable frame rate issue however this isn't the case for the iPhone 5. I have encountered that issue with the NVIDIA DVR feature for capturing 3D graphics. (DAWN Demo.)
    It seems this may be some kind of permissions issue since when selecting a media file through the iPhoto link in OSX finder dialog the file is located in a library package. The issue does not affect Photoshop, Lightroom, nor Illustrator (CC 2014) when importing media using the same method.
    It seems like just a bug that was missed.
    I apologize if I may have posted this in the wrong forum. Perhaps there is a technical or bug reporting forum? (I also am encountering another bug with AE linked clips in Premere Pro in OSX that wasn't there before.)

  • How to make Flash preserve color of layers with varying opacity when imported from Photoshop

    I have a set of layers in a Photoshop .psd with varied opacities; when I import the psd layers to Flash as Flash layers, the colors of the layers is wrong - the lower the opacity percentage in PS, the more "off" the color is in Flash.  Photoshop measures the color of each layer as an RGB value - I don't know why Flash can't preserve the RGB values as well?  Any ideas would be appreciated.

  • Export to Premiere Pro

    Hi all experts,
    If I do an export to Adobe Premiere Pro:
    1) Will it be rendered in Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe After Effects ?
    2) How I do I import the file in from Adobe Premiere Pro ? Just like importing a picture or video ?
    3) I am thinking if I use Premiere Pro instead of Final Cut, will it cut down on input and output time ?
    Thanks

    After Effects always uses the AE Render engine to render files. If you export to Premiere Pro and then close AE the Render engine will open in the background to render from inside PPro. Dynamic link is similar to round tripping to motion from FCP. Personally, for most projects that require AE work I think the AE/Premiere workflow is faster than the FCP/AE workflow. Sometimes though, depending on the project, I'll use Automatic Duck to bring FCP elements into AE for FX work.
    Hope this helps.

  • Exporting from Premiere Pro CC 2014

    Hello there,
    Every time that I am willing to export my project my Premiere Pro CC 2014 stop responding all together. I tried the short cut (Commend+M) or going through the Manu bar. the result is the same, Premiere Pro CC 2014 just freezes and does not respond to anything till I force quit it and restart it allover again. I tried exporting from Premiere Pro it self, without using Media Encoder, but the problem remains the same.
    I am using the new Mac Pro. I heard Adobe Premiere Pro is experiencing  problems with the New Mac Pro. Is that true? Or is there other issue?
    Thank you and looking forward to hear back,
    Maruf

    Thank you very much and appreciate your help enormously.
    Since preference files get touched by the application frequently, there is always the possibility of their corruption. When this happens, you start to see what we call "unexpected behaviors" from Premiere Pro. This problem happens infrequently, but it is a good first troubleshooting step to try on your own. This is the case with most every non-linear editing application I have used over the years (Final Cut Pro, Avid, Media 100, etc.).

  • Losing audio quality when exporting from premiere pro

    I have now had this happen with two different videos. I play the video in premiere pro and the audio is fine. I export the video and lose most of the quality of the audio portion. One project is a music session when exported I only get the main vocal the drums aren't audible only a buzz sound is made where the kick drum would usually come in. On another project is a thank you video for a family member and the audio is distorted after being exported. The audio sounds fine inside of the session. Once exported the audio will still work fine on my computer and my iphone 5s as long as I'm wearing headphones, once I try to play the video through my iphone 5s speakers the audio quality is gone, making the noises as previously stated. My iphone can still play other tracks fine but videos and audio exported from Premiere Pro are distorted. Any advice on how I can export the video so I wont lose audio quality when playing the video on an iphone? I know it's not my iphone speakers, they play other songs just fine.

    The source files as far as the audio goes are wav files that I've pulled off of my desktop. My sequence settings are 1920 by 1080 at 29.97 frames per second. The export settings are H.264 with the preset YouTube (HD 1080 29.97 FPS) and I've also tried HD video 1080p 29.97 FPS. If this isn't enough information please let me know I'm in the learning phase. Audio wise the quality is set to high and I'm exporting at 4800 kh and a bit rate of 190. I've also tried a bit rate of 320 and 264 I think it is and still had the same problems.  Let me know if I need to do screen shots I really want to figure this out.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Export to Premiere Pro from Audition has stopped working...

    Hello guys,
    When I've finished an edit in Premiere I send it to Audition via Edit>Edit in Adobe Auditoin>Sequence.
    But when I've finished in Audition and try to send it back via Multitrack>Export to Premiere Pro (sent as each track as a stem), Audition processes the session and then tries to send it back to Premiere.
    The screen jumps back to Premiere as usual, but instead of seaing the pop-up window to insert new tracks as it should do, nothing happens. I've ran lots of tests to see what is going wrong, and can't find it. Somewhere on the journey into Premiere, the process stops and I really, really liked this feature.
    Can anybody shed some light on why this has suddenly stopped working? I have made no changes to the installation of either Premiere or Audition, and neither have any plug-ins or extras.
    Hope you can help,
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I have the same problem to import files from audition. It save the work in .xml what I can load in premiere but automaticly it will not work.
