Imported QT file looks small in sequence window

I imported a QT produced on an Avid into FCP.
The footage was shot 24pA Anamorphic.
My capture setting in FCP are set for 24pA Anamorphic.
When I capture direct from tape the widescreen image fills the screen in the canvas windows- the way it should.
When I import the QT file- the image does not fill up the screen. It is the full image but small in size. It's similiar to what you would see on a studio monitor set to underscan mode.
Is there a way to get the image to fill the screen?

If your settings are 16:9, and captured footage is 16:9, then the issue resides with the AVID export.
Can you go back and determine the project settings and export there?
best wishes

Can't import XDCAM files(.mov) in Premiere for Windows

Hello.
I have some problem using XDCAM file in Premiere Pro.
Actually I captured the XDCAM file(.mov) from MovieRecorder, which is the ingest software for Mac..(http://www.softron.tv/products/movierecorder.html)
The XDCAM file is opened in Premiere Pro for Mac.
And I can play the file in QuickTime player for Win but I can't import the file in Premiere for Windows.
How can I import the XDCAM(.mov) recorded from Mac in Premiere Pro for Windows?
Do I have to install any codec or program?
Please let me know any advice.
Best regards,
Donnie Kim

Any suggestions would be appreaciated.
They have a website with support and a forum. https://www.videocopilot.net/products/action2/
Looks like cool stuff.
They list compatability with Premier Elements. Perhaps if you post a request there, you will find someone that has been down the road before you with the combination of the two products. They may also need to know if an adjustment is necessary for PrE11.
Good luck!

Importing text file into search and redact window.

I am in the search window under the search and redact tool. I
am trying to import a file that was originally an excel to populate the
search multiple words window. I read that text files can be imported. I saved the file as a text file but it does not import. I can import an adobe file but this gives me a list with a bunch of junk. What am I missing?

The dialog imports text files.
Make sure that the file you are importing is a text file and has one word in every line.

Captured NTSC video looks small in Canvas window

Often, when we capture video into FCP (version 4.5), the clip comes in at 50% of it's original size (that's how it looks in the canvas window and on the NTSC monitor). We have looked at a number of sequence settings and have not been able to rectify the problem.
We are capable of scaling each or the clips up to 160% of the original size and the clips will then fill the frame as expected. There does not seem to be any degradation in the video when doing this, but obviously we are doing something wrong and our solution is a long way from elegant.
In certain projects or sequences the video will be captured into FCP and be the normal size, but we have not been able to figure out what is the difference between these projects and sequences.
Thanks very much for your input.

Use the DV/NTSC easy preset to capture your DV material. If the material is recorded as anamorphic, use that preset.
Capture the video using the same DV/NTSC easy preset that you used to create the project.
Drop the clip into a sequence created using the same DV/NTSC easy preset..
The clip will fill the NTSC external monitor screen.
Set your Canvas and Viewer windows to Fill to fit.

Import mov files into premiere pro cc windows

Hi
to import mov files into premiere pro cc 64bit ,windows 8.1 64bit pro do i need Quicktime pro or quicktime alternative ?
because when i try to import a mov file i got this error
thanks
i remember cs6 was able to import it
i have never installed quicktime pro

Your question simply cannot be answered definitively for a given clip because it's the codec that matters, not the wrapper/file extension.
As of one of the 7.x releases, Premiere implemented native support for decoding some codecs within a QuickTime file. But that native support does not extend to the entire universe of codecs that can be stuffed into the wrapper.
So you can either report the codec or simply install QT and see if that enables PPro to import the clip.

Importing .asf files, blurry in source/sequence monitors and output

I have a large amount of material to work with in .asf form, 480x360 resolution. I'll be outputting to 480x360 as well, so no scaling/zooming needed at all. Problem is, when I import one of those asfs it immediately becomes blurry, i.e. in the source monitor even before I insert it into the sequence and do any modifications. Comparing the imported files to the originals there is a noticeable difference at the exact same dimensions.
I've made sure my sequence settings are at 480x360 resolution. Not sure where else to look on this, any suggestions?
In the past I've done a very similar workflow in PE with no problems, so I'm assuming (hoping??) that there's some easily changed option. Thanks in advance.

Have tried various other permutations in project setup and output - still no luck.
I'm wondering if a clue is the behavior of the program monitor - the clip displays clearly in it until I 'select' the video screen, at which point it blurs just like the output. If I click another area of the screen again, the image resharpens, and so forth. Anyone know what mechanism is causing that?

How to import a file created in a Studio (windows application) into Final cut pro

I captured a video frm my camera and edit partially on the Studio from Avid and now I want to complete the eiting using Final Cut Pro.
The FCP does not accept to import?
Is there any way I can do that?

export a Quicktime file from Avid that the version of final cut you have can use, look in FCP AV set up or export for a list.

Imported PSD Files Are Being Erroneously Resized in Captivate 4

I am trying to import PSD files to use in my Captivate 4 project. I verified that the PSD image size is 800 x 600, and my Captivate project dimensions are the same 800 x 600. But when the import process completes, the layers are erroneously resized to smaller dimensions. I have tried the same thing on two separate installations of Captivate 4 on two separate PC's with the same results.
Here is a screenshot of the PSD file in Photoshop (image size = 800 x 600):
Now here is a screenshot of what the imported PSD file looks like in the Captivate project (screen size set to 800 x 600):
When I do the import, I'm selecting: File --> Import --> Photoshop File..., then I select the "As Layers" option, and do not check the box next to "Scale according to stage size" (I have tried using this option as well with the same results, although I don't believe I should have to rescale when the PSD image size and Captivate project size are the same.)
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much for such a prompt reply...the single .psd file with many layers is imported using:
Import Kind: Composition
Layer Options: Editable Layer Styles; Life Photoshop 3D (although there are no 3D layers in the .psd...so I'm unsure if this default is needed?)
Oh!! Never mind...I just tried Import Kind: Composition -- Cropped Layers and the layers were not cropped...kind of counter-intuitive since I would have thought "Cropped Layers" would crop the layers rather than the other way around.
Thanks for your help...if you just reply to this post I'll mark your reply as the answer, thanks for suggesting the direction to look for a solution, cheers!

When you make a project frame size bigger shouldn't the old clips look smaller

Im relinking 4k files to my 1920 x 1080 project. When I changed the project to 4096 x 2304, shouldnt the 1920 x 1080 clips look smaller in the viewer. The relinked new clips look the same as the old clips. Even a 1920 x 1080 motion graphic looks normal over the new 4096 x 2304 clip. The inspector shows the frame size I made both the project and the clips, but It dosent make sence that the old clips look the same size as the new clips. The first time I tried the relink to new file size I noticed the old files looked smaller, now I dont know what happened.

No. If the aspect ratio is correct, the media in the changed project will be scaled to fit the project. Select a clip (or clips) in the project and in the Video inspector open Spatial Conform. The default is set to Fit. If you want it back to normal size set it to None.

Error importing PNG files.

I have png images (from CS3/CS4) and they work fine with *all but one* of my program's on my mac and microsoft pc.
iPhoto does not recognize the files and fails to import the files, looking in the log, it say's:
28-08-09 21:08:25 iPhoto[504] CGBitmapContextCreate: unsupported parameter combination: 8 integer bits/component; 16 bits/pixel; 1-component colorspace; kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedFirst; 1920 bytes/row.
I have made a new library, but that does not help.
Other formats works fine with iPhoto, it's just the png that give's trouble.
Anybody any idea's?

I think you are making too much of an excuse for Apple.
Oh no, really?
Because, you see I've reread all of my contributions in the thread and I can't see where I've made any excuses at all for Apple. I have explained that the iPhoto supports RGB and I've explained why, but I don't think I've made any excuses. Can you find where I did? I'd love to know.
If you have a Mac and a picture, the natural place to put it is in iPhoto.
Yes, that's because it's called iPicture... oh wait a minute, it's not. It's called iPhoto.
How hard can it be to support all the PNG formats?
Gosh, a lot more difficult that scanning in RGB, I reckon. Or adding an RGB profile to an image already scanned. Of course, I'm not a programmer, are you?
I think Mac users for the most part want to keep all their images in one place.
See, do you have evidence for that? I see lots f posts on here from folks who don't. Who want to use other apps or just the Finder or even who want to manage their files themselves. But maybe you know better.
I don't remember iLife coming bundled with iScannedPictures or iImages.
You know, that's so true. But neither does it come with iFInance for book keeping, iDrawing for drawing, or iGarden for planning your Garden.
iPhoto sounds better, but I'm betting most people that have a Mac store things other than photos in iPhoto.
Yes, mostly they store movies too. And those that want to store drawings in there, well they give them RGB profiles.
I find Apple lets me down a lot on the "it just works" mantra.
Well you always have the choice to use something else, no?

Import CSS file locks up Eclipse

Hi;
I was following the JSF Tutorial and it got to the point where I am supposed to drag Import CSS File from the tag libraries window to the design window for register.jsp.
So I pressed the LMB down, dragged and got the O with a slash through it cursor. No matter where I drag the cursor it has the O. I released the LMB and still the O. I can't do anything in Eclipse - it's totally non-responsive.
I then hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to bring up the task manager, and then the O goes away and I can edit again in Eclipse. But I have tried 4 times to drag "Import CSS File" and each time it goes to the O and no response until I CTRL-ALT DEL. So needless to say, I'm stuck at this point in the tutorial.
??? - thanks - dave

Hi,
We are not able to reproduce the issue. Are you still facing the problem exercising "Import CSS file" by drag & drop method?
If so, send the following to [email protected]
* register.jsp file
* workspace - ..eclipse\workspace\.metadata - .log file
* <NitroX Install Folder>\NitroX\eclipse\plugins\com.m7.nitrox_2.1.0 - m7.log.0 file

Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 7 (presumed 64 bit).....
1. Music files and error message...are these music files from iTunes? If so, convert them to .wav in iTunes to convert them to wav version, and then import the .wav version into Premiere Elements 13 project using Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace's Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets from where you drag the wav version to the Soundtrack.
The following are the instructions for the iTunes converting
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1550
If any problems with the instructions, please let me know, and I will go through them with you.
2. How you set up the project and the export settings that you select greatly influence your end product result.
a. What are the properties of the source media?
b. What project preset did you (manually) or the project (automatically) set to match the properties of the source media.
(If you do not know, please tell us what you see for the readings of Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, Pixel Aspect Ratio - even
if the fields look grayed out.)
c. For your export...Publish+Share/Computer/and then what? And what preset? Did you use the default settings of the preset or did you
customize the export settings of the preset under the preset's Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thanks.

[CS3] In Adobe Premiere, clips are much smaller in sequence timeline than in source window?

I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 to edit a portfolio together. I downloaded my own videos from YouTube as I had lost the raw files, then converted them to .avi and imported them into APP, which worked fine. Though once I started placing the clips on the timeline the video image in the sequence window was about 1/4 the size of what it was in the source viewer! I'm having great trouble with this as I'm used to editing on Avid and Final Cut Pro, and it is the only editing programme available to me as I have a portfolio due in a few days. Any help is appreciated! Thank you

>converted them to .avi
How did you convert, and what is the codec inside that avi wrapper?

In iPhoto 11 imported tiff files remain tiff after editing. I need to convert to large file jpegs. How? using the "export" function they become too small

I thought imported tiff files would be converted by iPhoto to JPEGS in previous versions of iPhoto. this might have been a disadvantage but my current project requires JPEGs as the final product.
thanks for any guidance
Jim

Drag the photo from the iPhoto window to the desktop or export as kind = JPEG
As to too small - what is too small? The pixel dimensions of the exported JPEG will be identical to the original TIFF - the file size is smaller because JPEGs are compressed - which of course reduces file size - which of course is the reason that JPEG exists
