  • 5D MKII Video Project Settings

    For 5D MKII Video Project Settings, should the timebase be 29.97 or 30 fps? I wasn't clear from what I've read which was the right frame rate...
    Thanks in advance,
    Luke

    Check the specs in the camera manual or the website.

  • Which Premiere Pro (CS6) project settings should I be using?

    Hi there
    I am currently trying to use Premiere Pro CS6 to edit a Skype video call I recorded using Super Tintin, and I'm not sure what project settings I should l be using.
    At the moment I am selecting HDV/HDV1080i25 (50i) when I set up the project, but when I come to add the video file to the project timeline, I am told that the file settings do not match the sequence settings and I am prompted to either change the settings, or keep the existing ones.
    When I select 'keep existing settings' the video appears in a very small box in the centre of a large black screen, which obviously isn't what I'm looking for. When I select 'change sequence settings', however, the video fills the screen, which is great, but the video and audio are out of synch (when I play the file outside of CS6, they are in synch). Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
    If it helps, here is some info regarding the file I'm currently working with:
    MP4, 9MB
    Frame width: 320
    Frame height: 240
    Frame rate: 14 frames/second
    Data rate: 529 kbps
    Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Many thanks.

    Select a New Sequence
    Select any preset in a folder Mobile & Devices
    go to the Setting tab
    Set the parameters of the video and audio to your video file appropriately.
    Save the preset under any convenient name.
    create a sequence based on your preset.
    Enjoy.

  • Suddenly, Premiere Pro video project will not play at all

    I've been working on several versions of a video project in premiere, and suddenly none on the files will play at all. I'm fairly new to premiere, but all I've ever had to do in the past is make sure the timeline is selected and hit play. Now nothing happens in any of my sequences. I would very much appreciate suggestions.

  • Canon hfs20 1080 50i vs 25PF Final Cut Pro X Project settings

    I apologise in advance if this is a newbie frustrating question....
    But I have been searching and reading....and reading....and just cant seem to work it out.
    I have a Canon hfs 20 legria (PAL version) camera.
    I have purchased Final Cut Pro X.
    The camera highest quality settings are 1080 50i or 1080 25pf.
    Now, I think I understand the difference between interlaced and progressive (did some reading on the net).
    What confuses me, is when I import the footage from the camera...into final cut pro X
    I shot some footage at 1080 50i.   ( it is intended to be used as a music video, eventually)
    When I imported the footage into FCPX i let it set the project properties, taking it from the footage shot.
    Expecting the project would set itself, to 1080i 50i.
    I check the project properties, and they say its 1920 X 1080i 25i ( now from my reading, i assumed if it was gonna set 25 anything, it would have been 25p)
    I then copied the project, and manually set its settings, to 1920 X 1080p 25p
    When I play either project, and look at them in the viewer, I cant see a difference. (Now that is probably attributed to the fact that I am a newbie and dont know what I am looking for in the first place)
    Now, also during my searching, I came across a plethora of people, selling coversion software, for the canon hfs20 to get it into FCP. Now I cant tell if this was prior to FCPX , and now FCPX handles my cameras footage. To be honest, from what I had read, I kinda didnt expect my footage to import, and was pleasantly surprised when it did.
    So, on to my questions, you say...8)
    My cameras highest quality settings, are 1080 50i or 1080 25p
    I wish to get the best footage I can, and have it set so it works well with FCP X.
    I dont shoot, sports, hummingbirds etc...its mainly me, sitting playing the guitar, long walks on the beach, looking longingly into the distance...8)
    Which settings would work best, and what should my project be set at , in FCPX to deal with those settings.
    Final delivery, will be, internet, Beta tape for TV broadcast, possibly DVD but that is a distant 3rd.
    Look, I know this is probably a frustrating question, but I would really love some help. Audio, i get, Video makes my head spin..8)
    thanks in advance
    Wiz

    Hi Tom
    and thank you very much for your reply.
    Okay, I will shoot in 25FP from now on...8).
    I also made the change to the viewer settings, though I cant find anything in the online help manual about what it is or what it does...
    thanks mate
    cheers

  • Inserting Live Clock in Final Cut Pro Video Project

    Does anyone know how to insert a live clock in FCP? I am looking for something like inserting a game clock for a sporting event.
    I don't know if this is possible at all, but if so....any tips?
    Thanks

    In FCP, how/where are you looking for it? It should show up two places:
    Browser window - Effects tab->Video Generators->Too Much Too Soon->Clock
    Viewer window, near the lower right corner you should see a button that looks like a frame of film with an 'A' in it. Click that to reveal the generators such as text, mattes color bars etc. The Too Much Too Soon group should show up there.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 crashes whenever I go near Project Settings

    Hi all
    I am using an official trial version of Premiere Pro CS6 as part of Creative Cloud. I am editing on my MacBook Pro 17" (newest model) with h.264 footage recorded on my Canon 550D.
    Everything works fine, imports and edits like a dream. However, during editing, if I simply go to Project -> Project Settings -> General - then don't even change anything, just ok out of the dialog box then it crashes.
    When I say crashes, the video disappears and I cannot do anything at all until I exit out and reboot. No messages appear until I do a 'force quit' and then I get the standard "A serious error has occurred" etc.
    Of course the obvious solution is to not select Project Settings when editing! Which I will do for now, but I would like to think that I can change any settings I like without it crashing every time!
    Any thoughts?
    Regards
    Jason

    On reading the advice on a separate thread I updated OSX from 10.7.3 to 10.7.4 which seems to have fixed the problem. Probably should have checked that first!

  • YouTube videos for a Final Cut Pro X project

    I am working on a Final Cut Pro X (10.0.6) project made from YouTube videos (1080p HD). My project settings are:
    Video Properties: Format 1080p HD, Resolution 1920x1080, Rate 25p and Render Format Apple ProRes 422. I want to extract it and burn it to a DVD and then play this DVD in standard DVD Players or a video projector. Is this possible or the quallity is going to be poor ?
    Also in the Render Format is there a better option so to get a highest quallity video ?
    Thanks in Advance.

    The quality is not going to be great, coming from YouTube and then compressing to standard definition video. 422 will be perfectly adequate for the media. Raising it to 4444 or uncompressed isn't going to do anything for your video.
    Try making a disk image and see how it looks.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 Project & Sequence Settings

    I will be shooting with a Sony NEX-VG10 set at a Record Mode of FH 17M (which I have no clue what it is)
    The camera records 1920 x 1080 Full HD videos (I don't know if its 1920x1080i or p)  (The user guide that came with the camara doesn't explain much of anything)
    The memory card that I will use to record the clips is a 32GB SDHC
    I want to know the settings that I should choose to edit the clips in Premiere Pro CS5.
    1)  Project Settings asks me to select between DV and HDV.  Is HDV the right one?
    2)  Sequence Settings is getting me more confused than I am already:
         In previous projects (with a different camera) I have chosen DV NTSC as I had set the Project as DV but also because of the NTSC
         In the Sequence Settings if I go along with HDV it doesn't give me the NTSC option but it lists several 1080i and 1080p options.
         Which one should I choose? 
    Finally, when I am all done I will burn an HD DVD with Encore.
    I am assuming that using the same edited video I could also burn an SD DVD: is that possible?
    The whole project will probably turn a 45 min. video.
    Thanks for your help.

    Maybe I didn't explain myself correctly.
    When creating a new project I have to specify location, name, etc... PLUS I also have to indicate the capture format
    No, you don't.  You can hit cancel.  If you've shot on media cards, you have no need to Capture.
    Secondly, comes the Sequence Settings where there are a bunch of available presets listed such AVCHD, DV-24P, DV-NTSC, DV-PAL and so on... also HDV.... and within each one there are further options for example under HDV:  1080i 25, 1080i 30, 1080p etc....
    Which one is the one I should choose?
    That's already been explained in this thread.  And it's also covered thoroughly in the Pr Help documentation.
    If understand correctly you are suggesting that I forget this screen and just add my clips and create New Sequence from Clip.  This you say will automatically attach to it the proper preset.  Pardon my ignorance but I can't figure out how it will work.  Will I have a new sequence for each clip?
    Right.  Have you even tried it yet?  You can select a bunch of clips, and drag them to the New Sequence icon also.  They'll all be added to a new Sequence based on the source clip's settings.
    Finally, when I mentioned I will burn an HD DVD I meant: a High Definition  DVD and also was considering burning a Standard Definition  DVD and was asking if it would be possible.
    You're using incorrect terminology.  There is no HD DVD.  There is DVD, and there is Blu-Ray.  The different formats have different names.

  • Project settings for Nikon D3100 HD-Pro CS3

    Hey everyone, I'm totally new to all of this, and recently got a Nikon D3100.  I was able to get a license of Premiere Pro CS3 from work, so I decided to start playing with the HD video on the Nikon.
    So my question is, which new project settings should I be using to maintain the quality of the original content from the camera?  I'm currently shooting 1080p at 24fps.  I'm asking because when I go to edit the video, there seems to be a drop off in quality when I'm editing it.  And then when I go to export it with Media Encoder, there is also quite a drop off in quality as well.  I've tried a bunch of different settings, but since I'm so new to this, I don't really know what I'm doing when I adjust the settings. 
    All I really want right now is to be able to maintain the quality of the original footage while I'm working with it, and then when I export it. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • I have Final Cut Pro X (10.0.9) and would like to change my project settings but I am having trouble finding the 'Modify Settings button.'  Where exactly is it located?

    I have Final Cut Pro X (10.0.9) and would like to change my project settings but I am having trouble finding the 'Modify Settings button.'  Where exactly is it located?  Here is the link which gives the instructions but doesn't seem to say where the 'Modify Settings Button' is located: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12526?viewlocale=en_US

    You have to choose – one settigf or another.
    The thing is.your HD clips will look better in an SD project than your SD clips will in an HD project.
    WIthout knowing much more about your project and the kind of content, it's really hard to be specific. But generally I'd let my project settings be guided by what fraction of my timeline will be made up of HD clips and how much SD clips. If it's 75% HD, I'd probably do an HD project…and so on,
    Good luck.

  • Project settings for mixing AVCHD and iPhone video

    Hello,
    It seems that getting the correct project settings is imporant to Premiere, but what if I would like to mix AVCHD video with iPhone 3GS video?  Which project settings would I select in this case?
    Thank you.

    This question aroused my curiosity and I tried mixing 1080i AVCHD and Nokia phone .3gp video on an 1080i AVCHD timeline in PE8 - the 3gp video played fine, the AVCHD video needed the timeline rendered to give a decent quality playback.  I realise that's different from iPhone video, but I'm simply suggesting that it's worth trying, and that project presets don't necessarily mean that only the preset file type will work.
    I have to say that this whole project settings thing is a mystery to me.  Why does a 1080i AVCHD preset make a better job of playing back 3gp video from the timeline than it does playing back 1080i AVCHD?  Weird. Why not just handle all that in the background (eg without asking the user for any settings at all, like one NLE here does, or simply setting the timeline to the first clip of the project (optionally) like another one here does?
    As for the comment earlier on about background rendering - here (after a day or so) it seems to be not a very useful thing.  Much grinding by the CPU for a very slow result.  To get the timeline to play smoothly it's much quicker to position the work area bar as required and hit "enter".  Also, one has to watch for the new analysis process, which once started seems to create an everlasting CPU intensive process even if you cancel it.  You have to keep a sharp eye on the process manager and see what's consuming CPU cycles (if you don't know already) and kill any apparently rouge Adobe-related processes by hand.  "Bmem" is your friend here, which is about the first thing I install on any PC of mine - badmofo.org/bmem is the site for this excellent freeware app.
