HVX-200 import blurry (double-images) into CS4?!

I am using Premiere CS4 and I imported footage from Panasonic HVX-200 shot at 720PN 24p format.
I am importing using the 720P 24P DVCPROHD preset.
For some reason all my footage comes out blurry (I see double images when a subject moves, as if I have frames blending together)
Can someone tell me what may be causing this?
Thanks,
Aza

No red line, I did render the clips... After checking just now, I only see it in the program monitor, the source monitor appears fine.
Here are the sequence settings I used (copied and pasted directly from the settings window)...

How to import a jpeg image into premier elements 12?

how do i import a jpeg image into premier elements 12?

chuckx
Just for background information, what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on?
The generalized answer is Add Media/Files and Folders/Projects Assets from where you drag the photo to the Expert view Timeline.
But all that can generate a mountain of questions about the photo and the project into which it will be going
a. what are the pixel dimensions of the photo - will or will I not have to resize or crop/resize the photo for the project
b. is the photo going into a project that will consist of photos and videos
c. if video inclusion, that leads to questions about the properties of the video so that you can set the project preset to match those
d. that leads to questions on the best size to have your photo before you import them into this project.
So, one simple question generates a lot of side questions.
Please let us know how we might help to sort out the details for your Premiere Elements workflow and its source media.
Thank you.

Incorrect colors after importing a RAW image into LR

I shoot in RAW mode using Canon EOS 400D.
After importing RAW images into LR, EVERY image I shot gets oversaturated with green-yellow colors. If I open same image in C1 Pro colors look fine.
If I change shooting mode on my camera to JPG (using sRGB color space) and import image into LR, colors look same as on RAW image in C1 Pro. All settings in LR and C1 Pro are set to default.
My guess is that LR applies wrong (camera?) profile when it imports a RAW image. I don't think it's a difference in RAW converters, because the difference in colors is really huge.
In the Camera Calibration panel I see ACR 3.6 profile selected and all settings are set to 0. Using sliders I can correct colors on image, but I failed to make a generic preset that could be applied on all imported RAW images.
My monitor (Samsung 940BF) is setup to use manufacturer ICC profile. I tried to change it to sRGB or Adobe RGB, it doesn't help. I'm running Windows XP SP2.
Any thoughts on how to return colors back to normal?
Here are 2 examples of the same image converted by:
1. LR

2. C1 Pro

Morey,
there is no such options as "import settings into LR" you have to put the ACR-settings-file into the "~/Library/Adobe Lightroom/Develop Presets" folder (on a Mac). I think in the end its faster to just copy the numbers manually from ACR and save the preset from within LR.
No, I don't think that calibrating has anything to do with profiles, at least not from what I understand as a profile (like sRGB or ProPhoto profile). It is kind of changing the stored default calibration values for a given camera type (something which one of course could also call a profile). It is definitive not like doing any double profiling or so.
@Lee Jay,
on different forums you can find values for ACR camera calibration of different cameras, googling should reveal some. Problem is that the numbers for the calibration change with the lens and, more important, there seems to be a lot of leeway regarding the behaviour of individual cameras of the same model. I found a lot of numbers on the net which didn't work with my D70, in the end I had to calibrate it myself. But your experience might differ, so I would suggest that you just have a look at what google offers.
One last thing: You don't need to buy a PS version which is compatible with ACR 3.7 or 4.0. You can use the 30 day trial version of PS for this. Afterall you most probably only need to calibrate each camera once and I doubt that Adobe disapproves this use of a trial version as long as it helps to sell LR. ;-)
Bye,
Carsten

IMPORTING NEF (RAW) IMAGES INTO iPHOTO 6 FROM NIKON D80

I have just got my self a Nikon D80 and find that I cannon import the NEF(RAW) images into iphoto6 - the files are not recognised - if I shoot in jpeg format it is fine
Bit of a disappointment as I was really excited to see what the ophotos would come out like! I have not imported the software that came with the camera - but I didnt think that was necessary.
Any help gratefully received

David
What kind of computer do you have? What version of the OS? What version of iPhoto? Have you applied the RAW updates from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads?

Importing Photoshop RAW images into Aperture

When I import Photoshop RAW images that I have made adjustments to, into my Aperture library, they show up as the original RAW files and not with my adjustments. Is there a way to get the RAW adjustments imported as well.
The only reason I need to import them into Aperture is to post them in a web gallery. Or is there a way to create a ME web gallery directly from Photoshop files? How about creating a ME web gallery directly from Lightroom? Anybody have a clue?)
(Btw, in attemtpting to research this topic, I find I am totally unable to do a search of the discussions. Even with a search word like "Aperture", I get no messages. Not matter what search word I enter I get no messages found. ???)
Thanks!
Jim

Thanks for the reply Allen.
I am saving them all as TIFFS now. I was just trying to avoid that time-consuming step. I do not really need them as TIFFS right now. It is to show edited RAW files to a client. Later, when selections are made, I would save that much smaller number of images as TIFFS. But it seems that there is no other way to import the RAW files with the edits into Aperture.
I used to create all of my web albums for clients in PS. But once I got a .mac account, I love and prefer the look of the .mac web galleries. But of course that necessitated importing all my PS files into either iPhoto (not an option) or Aperture. But can these PS web galleries be exported to a .mac web gallery?
Thanks!

Batch importing tga still images into iMovie HD 6

I need to import a whole series of still images that are stored as *.tga files so I can edit them together, frame by frame, into a moving sequence. I have tried importing them into my iMove HD and I get a 5 second frame that is red.
My questions are this:
1) How do I batch import all the stills into iMovie
2) How do I ensure each still that is imported runs for only 1 frame as opposed to the default 5 seconds? (I can't seem to find how to change the duration of all stills that are imported anywhere and the idea of editing each of the hundreds of images I need to import to run only 1 frame doesn't seem like the easiest way of working
3) How do I ensure my iMove HD can play the still instead of showing the still covered in a red colour wash?
Thanks!
Chris

Hi, I realize this is a little late, but a few days ago I found this link.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304895
Basically, you just have to make sure your images are in either JPEG or TIFF format. I converted my BMP photos to JPEG and the problem was solved.

Importing CMYK still images into PE12

I am very disappointed that Premiere Elements 12 does not import CMYK still images as it is time consuming to have to keep converting to RGB. Does Adobe propose to remedy this? Also, a 'generic failure' message is not exactly helpful. And it would also be helpful it the official Adobe list of acceptable files made it clear that CMYK coulod not be imported. I always thought that Adobe were experts when it came to file formats. How would we manage without Adobe Photoshop?

rogerinlymm wrote:
Ooops, sorry if I'm in the wrong forum after all that!! To be honest, I hadn't even realised there was a Photoshop Elements as I use the full Photoshop myself. But I'm even more surprised at the suggestion that Photoshop Elements will also not accept CMYK files as even hobbyists presumably often use Photoshop Elements for print for which CMYK is better.
You are wrong. Hobbyist very rarely use CMYK for excellent reasons. First, CMYK is the normal color model when you want to print on professionnal offets presses or similar. That's not a common output for hobbyists... whether they use home printers, local labs or web labs, RGB is required. If you send CMYK to those devices, they will convert to RGB before using their own color model which may be a variant of CMYK...
Since you are starting with RGB from your cameras, any conversion will lose information. CMYK is inferior in that case.
Presumably Abobe's view is that people who want CMYK should stop grumbling and buy for the 'full' programme, whether it is Photoshop Elements or Premiere Elements. Not very helpful!
There, I think you are right

A way to import all site definitions into CS4 from MX2004?

Is there a way to do this? I have the site definition

all at once into CS4?
I appreciate any help you can give me!

MX2004 didn't have this capability.

I wouldn't try this, as the key ID would be different.

Import CS3 AVI Footage into CS4

I'm trying to import some footage that I captured on my PC in CS3, into my Mac in CS4. When I open the project that was created in CS3 (PC), on my CS3 (Mac) it comes through fine. But when I convert the project and open it in CS4 (Mac), it wants to render all of the footage in the timeline. Which means the sequence settings aren't matching the footage. Even though the sequence settings are the same as those I used in CS3. Not sure what's going on.
Reason I capture the footage on my PC to begin with is because CS3 and CS4 still will not capture my DVX-100 24p footage correctly on a Mac. So this is my only solution at the time being. I have 34 hours of AVI footage that I'd really like to edit in CS4. Any help would be much appreciated!

Bill, thanks for your response. Sorry for the delay in getting back. The mis-match is precisely what I'm trying to figure out and fix. My sequence presets are as follows:
GENERAL
Editing Mode: Quicktime DV 24p
Timebase: 23.976 frames/second

There are 5330 frames with a duration of 1/29.97th.

Average frame rate is 29.98 fps
Video track 1 contains 1 type(s) of video data:
Video data block #1:

Temporal = Normal (3.00)
Not sure why the properties show that the clip is 29.97fps, becuase when I single click a clip it shows up as 23.976 up above. Any advice would be MUCH appreciated!

Can no longer import mp4 (XDCAM) footage into CS4

Hopefully somebody will be able to help me with this!
I am trying to import some Sony EX1 (mp4) footage into Premiere CS4, but am getting the following error message:
“file import failure: Error message – the importer reported a generic error”
I have done this process on many occasions over the last year or so and experienced no problems whatsover.
But for some reason I am no longer able to import the mp4 files...or even access these file types in historic projects!
I have checked the footage in the Sony clip browser in it seems fine, and plays fine when opened with a VLC player, so am a bit stumped to what the problem could be.
(For info, I am using a PC with 8gb RAM and a Quadro CX. I did have After Effects installed a month ago back and switched to VISTA. All Adobe updates have been installed, and I have sufficient memory)
Thanks in advance for any pointers or assistance

Of course using Premiere CS3 I have the problem of the audio constantly cutting out on the XDCAM MP4 files, so I really could do with a solution to this problem in CS4 asap - can anyone else help?
It is definitely a new problem for me, which almost certainly revolves around the impoter process. It did not affect my editing until 2-3 months ago but suddenly now renders CS4 Premiere more or less useless, on both on my laptop and my main PC.
It is possible that the problem only affects projects where one of the XDCAM files is very long and/or was originally saved across two separate cards at the time of recording. In which case it may not be a new problem, simply one I had not encountered before because I'd notg used any such long files.

How to import 30p 1920x1080 footage into cs4

Hi,
I shot some footage using my canon hf20 in 30p, at 1920x1080. when i open a new sequence i don't see a setting for 1920x1080 30p under AVCHD.
at first i was going to use the XDCAM HD preset since it's the only one i see that has 30p, but i realized that it's 1440x1080, not 1920x1080.
how else to import 30p 1920x1080 into premiere CS4?
1) will the 1080i30 (60i) setting preserve the 30p progressive footage (even though the option is listed in premiere pro under 1080 interlaced)?
2) or is the only way to edit 30p progressive at 1920x1080 is to select the AVCHD 1080p 24p setting and change the frame rate to 29.97?
3) or is there some other trick altogether?
thanks.

thanks for the replies. so does the 1080i30 (60i) setting do some kind of de-interlacing on 30p footage, even if it's not native and it's wrapped in 60i (like it is in the canon hf20)? or does the camera do that automatically?

I have a Canon EOS T2i Camera and I want to import the RAW images into Aperture. How do I import them as RAW images instead of jpeg ?

How do I import RAW images from my Canon EOS T2i camera into Aperture and have them show up as RAW images and not jpeg images?

See the list of supported raw formats:
http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
The footnote ** for the cameras EOS Rebel T2i EF-S / 550D / Kiss X4** says, that the raw format is only supported with Aperture 3. So you will have to upgrade to Aperture 3, to be able to import the raw from from your camera.

Keep transitions intact when importing mult. iPhoto images into iMovie HD?

Is it possible to import a completed iPhoto album show with hundreds of images with random transitions between each into iMovie while still keeping the random transitions between the iPhoto images intact?
If not, is there a way to select random transitions between the still images in iMovie once they get there rather than select and create each and every one of the transitions myself?
Thanks!

Because iMovie and iPhoto serve different purposes, each has features not found in the other. There is no way in iMovie to automatically add random transitions to slideshows, for example, while iPhoto offers that feature. (In iMovie, the assumption is the user wants absolute control over such features, wants to control each frame of the slideshow.)
That doesn't prevent you from having your cake and eating it too, however. Remember, many of the iLife apps allow you move stuff around between them.
For example, you can create a slideshow containing random transitions in iPhoto, export it to a QuickTime movie, import that movie to iMovie, add titles and songs, add some video from a video camera, add a voiceover narration, add some Chapter Markers, add an iMovie theme to introduce each chapter, then send the iMovie project off to iDVD to burn a DVD that plays on a TV.
So, check out the File > Export command in iPhoto. Set the exported movie to 640x480. The command will export your iPhoto slideshow to an MPEG-4 type QuickTime movie. Create a new MPEG-4 type iMovie project and import that movie to it. (Use the disclosure arrow towards the bottom of the window where you name the new iMovie project to select the MPEG-4 project type.)

Importing RED camera footage into CS4

I've downloaded a plug in for CS4 and all the other RED camera footage imported in fine (9 out of 10 files) expect for the last file. Here's a picture of the file names:
When I try to import these files (either through file > import) or Media Browser I get the message that the file format is not supported. Does anybody have any idea of what I could do?
Thanks!

Robodog2,
I finally got back to my office and was able to send JIm a screenshot of the issue as the file was too big to send (1GB).
The file marked A010_C001_10172V_001.R3D is the one that should import into Premiere Cs4 but as you can tell from the screen shot above, it will not.
Any help will be appreciated.
