I need help changing the sequence settings to my video

I shot on a JVC Everio in 720x480 29.97fps. I normally shoot in 1080x420 so I know the picture quality isn't going to be AS good. Normally, when I drag my clips into the timeline Premiere changes the sequence settings for me and everything looks fine. However when I drag  this footage (the 720p) in, it becomes elongated and fuzzy.
I've messed around with the sequence settings by using DV-NTSC widescreen 48kHz and DVCPRO50 480i NTCS widescreen. When I drag my clips in they're cropped really close and they still look a bit off when I change the image to fit the screen (DVCPRO 50 looks a little bit better).
When I shot the video it looked crisp and clear on the monitor. I'm wondering if it looks strange because of the sequence settings and if so, what would be the best settings for this video.
The final video is going on youtube and I would like to make it look as good as possible!
Please let me know if you can help me out!

However when I drag  this footage (the 720p) in, it becomes elongated and fuzzy.    
What 720p? You gave us two frame sizes. Neither of them are 720p.
1080X420 is a very strange frame size. And you say it is normal? A 720p video is 1280X720 non-interlaced.
Chances are very good that it is 480i video you shot with a frame size of 720X480 and it is interlaced.
That video should be interpreted with a Pixel Aspect Ratio (PAR) of 0.9091 (rectangular pixels that are taller than they are wide) - and what that means is that it isn't 16:9 it is 4:3 and should be edited in a 4:3 sequence. If, however, Premiere Pro is seeing the footage as having a PAR of 1.0 (square pixels) then you may have to right click on the clip in the Project Panel and select Modify|Interpret Footage and set it to D1/DV NTSC (0.9091)

  • When previewing my website in Dreamweaver flash crashed - I need to change the security settings but don't know how to do this

    I use Dreamweaver and Adobe Bridge to create slide shows on my website. When 'previewing' the slideshow - in Dreamweaver it opens Firefox - it crashed and the dialogue box opens telling me to change my 'settings' - it doesn't do this if I preview in IE - which I don't understand. I need help in knowing where to go to change the security settings so that this doesn't happen. Incidentally, when I am on the web through Firefox, my website slideshows work perfectly>

    You can set the pref dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs to to -1 on the about:config page to disable the timeout.
    See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />

  • I need help changing the account number my daughter uses for payment for her apps and itunes, etc. can anyone talk me through this.

    hi ,
    im just a mom, not very computer savy.....however, I need to change the payment method my daughter uses to purchase things on her ipad due to the fact that the current one is expiring. ie: for such things like songs and games, etc.
    I would appreciate any help as how to do so.
    THanks

    On a computer's iTunes you should be able to edit the payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option (if you are not logged into the account that your daughter is using then Store > Sign menu option to log out of the currently logged in account ; that will then change to a Store > Sign In option so that you can log into her account) and log into the account (enter the account's password and click View Account on the popup)
    And on the account's details page there should be a payment link.
    If you are doing it on your iPad then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store (if not logged into her account then log out of your account via the popup that you get and then log in with her account) and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into the account  - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.

  • Change the sequence settings from NTSC 30 fps to PAL 25 fps, is possible?

    Hello,
    I have a finished project that was make in a sequence with the format NTSC 30 fps. Now I need to change that sequence and the project to PAL 25 fps. I have changed the settings of the source secuence to PAL 25, but in the resulting sequence the audio and the videos are different in time and speed.
    With the videos I have make a match frame to find the source, but with the audios I have problems. ¿There is a automatic proccess in final cut pro 7.0 that could make a translation of a finished sequence that was developed in NTSC 30 ftp to a PAL 25 fps?
    Can you give me a tip or something to make the trasnlation ?
    Thanks in advance

    Sorry...but it isn't as simple as changing a project frame rate. FCP is NOT good at mixing frame rates. And when you put NTSC footage (29.97fps), into a PAL timeline (25fps), that is exactly what you are doing. No, this won't work. No magic solution for this (although Avid MC5 does this nicely).
    You are going to have to export a QT file, and let Compressor tackle this job (and it will take a WHILE, and you will have to run a few tests to see if your settings work to your satisfaction), or take that QT file to a post house with a Terranex or Snell/Wilcox to do the conversion ($$$$)...or output to tape AND THEN do the Terranex thing.
    No easy button here.

  • Need help changing the default Save Path

    Hello,
    We are implementing SAP, and will be using Citrix as the source for the GUI.  One of our requirnments are, that we need to change the default "Save Path" that users save documents too.   By default, this is to the C drive, but, we need it set to a different drive (i.e. V: on the citrix server).
    We found this note on SDN (see below) - however, it does not explain how to change or add this registry value?  Is this done in the GUI options, or in regedit?  If in reg-edit, where abouts in the tree does it go?
    Thanks guys, and any help would be greatly appriciated.
    Richard
    (As of SAP GUI 7.20, patch level 4) the REG_EXPAND_SZ registry value InitSaveDir can be used to configure the default path and folder for users to save the reported information in case of an access denial due to security rules. If users change the default path and save the information to an individual location, this new path will be kept as long as the user does not terminate the program. When starting SAP GUI again, users will get the configured default path again to store the reported information, the individual path changes will be lost. If the registry value does not exist, the default directory is the document directory of the SAP GUI.
    By default none of the above registry values exists. In order to change the behavior of the security module, the registry values need to be created and set to the desired value. A not existing registry value means use the default.
    In this doc:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/002444be-7018-2d10-e18e-a8c537198ef6?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true

  • I need help changing the previous owners id and password

    I bought a use macbook Lion os-x 10.7.5 software.  My apple id and password don't work because the previous owners password is still in there.  I have tried to get to the Disc Utility by restarting and holding the control, alt/option and r keys but it just starts up to the normal screen.  No disc utility.  Any suggestions?
    thanks, carl s

    If you started holding the Option key, and only saw Macintosh HD rather than that and  Recovery, then it seems that Recovery is missing or damaged on your computer. Some models of MacBook will start in Internet Recovery if you use Command Option R; although it seems that yours is not suitable.
    If you are able to start in Single User mode (hold Command & S at the chime), then you may be able to follow the steps below to change the password. Print them out first, & make sure that you know the name of the user that you wish to change. This won't alter the AppleID name & password that were used to install previous software, so you may still need to erase & (re)install yourself; starting with the relevant install DVD(s) which are usually available from Apple for around $20, if you call with the serial number.
    Start in Single User mode & wait for the :/ root#    prompt to appear
    type        mount -uw /        then press enter (the slash is important)
    again, wait for the :/ root#    prompt
    type    passwd username  
    then press enter (swapping 'username' for the name you need to change the password for)
    You should see
    :/ root# passwd username
    Changing password for username
    New password:
    You now type a password, which won't be shown onscreen, then press enter
    then you should see
    Retype new password:
    type the same new password again, then press enter.
    wait for the :/ root#    prompt, then type     reboot    & press enter

  • Please Help! I created a PP file on a Mac and need to finish it on a PC? How do I change the sequence settings? Cross-platform usage??

    I need to know this as soon as possible. How do I allow this file to work on a PC. Thanks

    Yes I opened it and it said "This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
    So what I did is open a new file, clicked Import, clicked on the project I've been trying to open and imported the selected sequences, since it wouldn't let me import the whole project. Now all the clips are in a bin, but how do I put it on my timeline as if it were the whole project I was working on? If I select the imported file, the clips appear on the timeline all scrambled and just as that, clips. Essentially I have clips but need the sequence (project) I had created.

  • I need help changing the security key for WRT54G2 1.5

    I already know the security key on my network, I just need to change it.  I don't have 'cisco connect'. I've tried the web based method with the 192.168.1.1 IP and using 'admin' for the password, but that gives me a '401 Not Authorized' error.  I've tried using my own security key instead of 'admin' and that doesn't work either.   How do I change this.  I tried to use the Linsky's knowledgebase and that didn't help. Live Chat won't help unless I'm willing to sign-up for some paid service plan, and there is no way I'm doing that.  I've never heard of a company charging their customers just to explain how to do something. All I have is a simple question about how to change the network security key when I already know what it is and there is no problem with the connection. Can anyone help me.  PLEASE.

    If admin didn’t work, it’s possible that you might have setup a different password to login to the setup of the router when you initially set it up. Since admin and your security key didn’t work when you tried accessing your router page, the other option for you then is to reset the router. Push and hold the reset button on the router using a pin or a paper clip for 30 seconds and unplug the power cord for another 30 seconds. Once the power light goes solid, you may start reconfiguring the settings of the router. For instructions, refer to these links: Setting up a Linksys router with Cable Internet service & Setting up a Linksys router for DSL Internet connection. Once you establish the wired internet connection, you may then start reconfiguring the wireless settings. Go to the Wireless tab: set the wireless configuration to manual; set a network name; then save the settings. Once saved, click on Wireless Security subtab:  set the security mode to WPA2 Personal and enter a new security key on the passphrase bar.

  • Need help changing the default download location in Firefox3.6.16

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [/questions/808920]</blockquote><br>
    I have been having default download location problem for over a year now and no one has been able to offer a solution so if you can figure this out, well, I can't say enough good about you.
    Here's my problem. I'm an online math instructor for a college. I use Firefox 3.6.16, and have also tried the latest version. Os is Vista. Students email me Microsoft Word 2007 documents every day as attachments to email. I click on the documents, make corrections and when I go to save their document to my computer, the default always wants to save it in a temp file! I read where Firefox is supposed to default save in the desktop (which is where I want it to default to, but that never happens). When the save defaults to the temp file, I have to scroll up numerous files and find the desktop option and click it to save it on the desktop. This is not a huge deal until you have to do it for 90 students and then it becomes time consuming.
    Numerous times I have followed the standard process of (TOOLS>OPTIONS>SAVE FILES TO DESKTOP) within Firefox but that never works. I've reinstalled Firefox, that doesn't work. I've also tried to change the "Save Options" settings within Word 2007 and that hasn't solved the problem either. Please advise if you have a solution. Thanks in advance!

  • Need help changing the default load page in Flash

    Welcome,
    I recently purchased a flash template.  The one problem I am having is that the default page that starts up when you play the movie is not the page I want it to start on.  It is starting on the gallery section of the menu item which is the 3rd tab and I wanted to start on the very first tab/menu item which is,About Us section.   What steps would I take to change the default homepage so it opens on About Us instead of Gallery. 
    Here is an example.  This is not my site but it's to illustrate what I am talking about.  www.thunderfuel.com.  It's like my webpage is starting up on the Web Design Tab, instead of the Games Tab which I want it to. 
    Thanks

    That's why the gallery shows up first then, its first in the timeline. There are a number ways you can change this. 1. You might select the section in the timeline that you want to show first and move it to the beginning of the timeline. 2. You could add a simple gotoAndPlay() directive at the start of the movie to tell the playback head to move immediately to the section that you want to show first.
