Importing into Trial of Premiere Pro 5.5 and After Effects 5.5

My board of management have asked that I evaluate Premiere Pro 5.5 as a replacement for Premiere Elements 9, which we find not quite sufficient for our needs.
According to the documentation, with trial version 5.5 we should be able to import MPEG-2, .mov, .mts, .mts2 etc. which were not available in the trial of version 5. When I try to import these formats, the message, 'There was an error decompressing audio or video', or the message, 'this format is not supported' appears. I have no issue importing into Premiere Elements 9.
Should I be able to import these formats into the trial version of 5.5, it is making it impossible to fully evaluate the products without this capability

>MPEG-2 files, the video was taken with a Cannon MiniDv
That should not be... when you do a Firewire transfer from minidv camera you SHOULD end up with DV AVI (or, in Mac land, an SD MOV file)
If you are getting mpeg2 from a firewire transfer... something is wrong

  • How to work with Premiere Pro cs5.5 and After Effects cs5 together?

    I have edited my movie in premiere pro cs5.5 and made the rough cut. In premiere, i have edited the video, put in soundtrack and foley. Now, i need to add muzzle flashes & blood splatters in some scenes and final color correction using After Effects cs5.
    When i import the premiere project in AE and make the changes, and then i export it back as premiere project. When i open this prmiere project, it shows vaious kind of errors and no changes are retained that i did in AE. Also, when i import the premiere project (which has 4 different sequences) in AE, all the media that has been imported in the premiere project also opens in AE making it difficult to organize the media.
    How should i work now so that i add vfx and color correction using AE cs5?
    I thought of exporting the video from Premiere pro and then open the video in AE and add vfx to some scenes and color correction to the full video and render it out again. But, this is the first time i am using AE and i am not sure if this is the best way. PLEASE HELP.
    Or, i could import the whole project in AE, add vfx, do color correction AND then export to video from AE. But i think, it will be better if i export the video from Premiere as it has loads of options to choose from while exporting to a movie.
    The dynamic link does not work between Premiere Pro Cs5.5 and After Effects cs5. Even if it does, its not working on my pc.
    All the footage is in HD and i want the final result in best quality HD too. PLEASE Help!

    If you are working between After Effects and Premiere Pro but with versions that are not the same number, you need to just work with movies rendered and exported as intermediate, lossless files.
    Dynamic Link only works between After Effects and Premiere Pro of the same version number, and only when they are installed as part of the same suite.

  • Why is Dynamic Link between Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014 not syncing audio changes?

    When I try to use a Dyamic Link between something I've cut in Premiere and a composition in After Effects, if it is simply an audio level change it will not update in AE.  Only if I alter the Video track does it then take the changes reflected.  Any suggestions as to what is causing this?
    Running Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014.

    As Dave alludes, AfterEffects is all about the visual changes ... or at least, mostly. For changes to the audio outside of PrPro's internal controls, highly suggested you use Audition instead. It is all about the sound ... and yes, will update PrPro when used correctly.

  • Dynamic Linking between Premiere pro cs6 CC and After Effects is shaded grey and not working.

    Hi, I currently have a CC membership with everything included in the package. I have already downloaded Premiere Pro CS6 and After Effects. However, I cannot figure out why , when I right click a video clip in Premiere, the dropdown menu has the 'replace with after effects' option within the list greyed out, apparently not an option for me. I've browsed several tutorials and all of them illustrate using dynamic linking with ease as a readily available option. Can anyone help with this please?

    Thank You, Jim -
    Unfortunately that specifically did not work.
    Based on another comment sent to me, here is what did.
    In PProCC
    File > Adobe Dynamic Link > New After Effects Composition
    In AECC
    From that composition created from PPro, I imported the project (aep) initially created in AECC from another team member. Saved the file.
    Back in PProCC
    File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Import After Effects Composition
    Magic.

  • Hardware not Supporting Premiere Pro  CS5.5 (and after effects)

    Hardware: 1st generation Macbook Pro 2.0Ghz Intel Core Duo processor, 2g (maximum ) ram, 500gb hybrid SSD/7200 hard drive. Mac OS leaopard 6.6
    I bought the master collection recently which includes premiere and after effects CS5.5. Pre sales I was advised by adobe that ALL macbook pros will run all these products (by an adobe customer services Advisor)
    I can't load them because (as I have now learnt) that the core duo processor only supports 32 bit- I phoned technical support, many times since 15th July and was repeatedly told that ALL macbook pros can run them, it was just a case of changing my OS to 64 bit. Apple are clear that this is not the case.
    Eventually I was referred to a tier 2 advisor, who asked me which processor type, and finally said it is clear that I need earlier versions to run on this and I would be contacted by email to provide a earlier 32 bit version of these 2 programs (as is supplied to windows 32 bit users). This was 2 weeks ago and I have had no response, I have phoned several times and some advisors try to start the whole process again and insisting that I should be able to install these.
    Today an advisor has told me that they have checked the notes and the tier 2 advisor has advised I "need to upgrade my hardware" (ie buy a new mac !!!)
    No-one will give me any phone numbers of a tier 2 advisor to discuss this or complain about it. Nor an email address.
    First i want to request that adobe, having misled me, should give me earlier copies. Especially as this has already been agreed. Secondly I want to complain about the huge amount of time wasted and how I have been fobbed off.
    Apologies if this is not the exact forum space for it but I cannot find the issue on FAQ so I would be very grateful if anyone can put me in touch with the right person, or if any of the moderators would know.

  • Premiere PRo CC Clip durch After Effects Komposition ersetzen funktioniert nicht

    Wenn ich von Premiere aus einen Clip über die Funktion " Durch After Effects Komposition ersetzen" bearbeiten möchte, öffnet sich AE, legt ein neues Projekt an das ich dann auch speichere. Der Clip wird im Projektfenster auch angezeigt allerdings mit einer schwarzen Oberfläche. Wenn ich den Clip dann ins Kompositionsfenster ziehe wird eine neue Komposition angelegt aber das Vorschaufenster bleibt schwarz.
    Wenn ich einen Clip den ich vorher aus Premiere exportiert habe und den dann in AE importiere funktionerts. Kann mir da jemand weiterhelfen????

    Geht leider immer noch nicht. Kann zur Zeit nicht auf Forum zugreifen.

  • Premiere Pro Dynamic Link to After Effects stopped working

    For about 6 months my Link between Premiere Pro and After Fx is not working. Premiere Pro sends it to After FX but when it is there the composition is empty and no media has been exported, even though the PP timeline is marked as a linked compostion. Its entirely empty, the media has vanished.
    Id love to fix this issue. I guess it's a reinstall???
    Latest CC, 10bit BM uncompressed timeline, Maverick (though it wasnt working on snow leopard either).

    Sorry guys, may have just found the problem! Just realised that somehow my CC version on my disk is not listed as downloaded in my Cloud drop down pane. So im updating it and im assuming that will fix the problem.

  • Problem with Matrox Mini, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570, Premiere 5.5.2 and After Effects CS5.5

    Hello,
    We have a couple video workstation PC's in our office.
    Premiere and After Effects have been crashing lately with increasing frequency - about every two minutes now.
    Here is the setup:
    Hardware
    Matrox Mini - Matrox Utility release 5.5.1
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 - Driver release 275.33
    Intel Xeon X5660 2.8 GHz processors
    24 GB Ram
    Software
    Adobe CS5.5, specifically...
    After Effects 10.5.0.253
    Premiere 5.5.2
    Windows 7 64-bit
    We have two 21" LCD monitors in dual display running from the computer, and the Matrox Mini outputs a preview signal to a 15" CRT.
    The crashes occur when I have After Effects and Premiere open at the same time. I am editing in a Matrox 720p29.97 timeline in Premiere. I imported several compositions from AE into Premiere through Dynamic Link and am matching audio with the animations in comps. When I switch back to AE to make an edit in the comp, After Effects generates a crash warning and then gives me the opportunity to save the project under a new name. After saving, it closes down completely. The Matrox WYSIWYG Control Panel in the system tray crashes during AE's crash, disabling the preview to the CRT from Premiere and AE. Since the Premiere sequence is a Matrox preset - in order to have output to the CRT - this freezes the timeline; the video and audio no longer play. When I save and then try to close Premiere, Premiere freezes and will not close without a force quit via the Task Manager.
    In order to deal with this temporarily, I am editing in an AVCHD 720p30 sequence preset in Premiere, which doesn't send a preview feed to the CRT, obviously, since it's not a Matrox preset and the CRT is connected via the Matrox Mini. It's more than a minor inconvenience, since I use the CRT for color accuracy.
    It is frustrating, since we did not have this problem until the recent CS5.5.2 update. We have tried changing drivers for the GTX 570 and changing the Matrox utility software to other versions, but no luck.
    Is there a combination of GTX 570 drivers, Matrox software releases, and AE/Premiere settings that will make this work? I know there are "Known Issue" posts with Nvidia cards on Matrox's website, which include the GTX 570, but, again, this problem started with the Adobe CS5.5.2 update.
    Any help here would be great, and I am willing to provide more information about the system and our crashes if it helps find a solution for the community, as I know this is not an isolated problem after reading Nvidia's, Matrox's, and Adobe's forums. I just can't find a hollistic solution on any of the individual manufacturer's forums.
    Thank You.

    I've been running with Matrox for years, starting with the Axio LE. I do 75% broadcast work and find that the Matrox works very well with my kind of workflow. Monitoring is critical and since we have to deal with 3rd. party solutions, Matrox was my pick dating way back to 2006. Sure I've had frustrations with it, but I've made far more money off Matrox than frustration.
       Here's my nearly crash-free setup:
    Gigabyte GZ-X58A-OC moboard
    Intel 990X (only overclocking to 4.0)
    24Gb of Kingston HyperX Ram
    GTX580 Graphics Card
    Matrox MXO2-LE w/Max
    Crucial 240Gb Sata III drive (the one that has a nearly perfect score on Newegg's site)
    2 x 2Tb WD Blacks Raid 0
    2 x 1Tb WD Blacks Raid 0
    Win 7 Ultimatte (it's a high-end version of Windows that's great for keying!)
    CS5.5 Suite
    Boris Red 5
    Boris Continuum Complete 8
    Trapcode Shine, Form, 3d Stroke, Starglow, and Particular
    Optical Flares by Video CoPilot
       The reason I list all of that software, is that it all seems to get along together, including with Matrox! So, I can't say I highly endorse Matrox because I've never tried Black Magic or running an external monitor off of my video card.
        I use After Effects with all sorts of plug ins and rarely have crashes. If I put in a long day I'll have the usual crashes here and there (mainly with PremierePro), but nothing that has required evan a soft reboot of the computer.
       My frustration with Matrox is mainly the delay that often comes with Adobe coming out with a new release and Matrox taking 2 or 3 months to catch up, though when Adobe went from 5 to 5.5, there was no delay at all.
       I think that a lot of the people who trash Matrox probably haven't used a Matrox product in years. But before you listen to me, I must confess that I was an early adopter (and advocate) of SSDs and even today, many people on this forum think they're still a waste of money!
       I'll close by simply saying that I've not left Matrox after 5+ years, but keep in mind I haven't had the bad experiences that so many others seem to have had, but again, perhaps they had those bad experiences long ago.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 vs. After Effects CS6

    I would like to know which of these programs would be best for me.   I shoot video with my Canon Vixia HFS 20 HD camcorder.  I have a decent green screen studio set up in my basement.  I currently use Corel VideoStudio Pro X3 and am not happy with the poor chroma key features it has.  Is the Chroma key the same or similar on both of these programs?  I would rather spend less for Premiere Pro unless there is some really cool stuff in After Effects that would make the additional cost worth it. 
    I just bought a new Dell XPS 8500 desktop with a Core i7 processor, 12GB of RAM, Nvidia GeForce GT 640 1GB GDDR5, 460 watt power supply, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and a 2TB hard drive.  I just installed a WD Black 2TB internal second hard drive.  I would be willing to upgrade the graphics card and/or RAM if it would make a noticeable difference.
    I would really like some good advice on what to buy and suggestions of computer upgrades if needed.

    1. If you feel unhappy with the reply, why did you mark it as the 'correct answer'?
    That just decreases the probability some other Forum users visit your thread and give you an answer you will be more satisfied with...
    2. You probably misunderstands Creative Cloud Files concept. Those 20 GB are for sharing files, they don't limit you in storing and editing footages on your hard drive, and you don't have to use it.
    3. Both PrPro and AE have sets of keying tools that can do a decent job. However, the result always depends on many factors such as set up quality, the footage quality (it's difficult to pull a good key out of highly compressed footage) and your skills. Since AE is a compositing tool, you can pull better key there out of poor quality footage via several steps (which requires investing some time on learning).
    Just download trial versions of both applications and test on your own.
    If you're unhappy with built-in keying tools and have some money, you can extend them with 3-rd party plug-ins (e.g. Red Giant Primatte Keyer).

  • Rendering from Premiere Pro Dynamic Link vs After Effects = fast vs slow?

    So I'm doing graphics for a show using a fake 3D look in Adobe After Effects CC 2014.1. In segment 1 there are about 30 fonts that display for about 3-4 seconds each. Technically it's just a bunch of 2D layers of text, not a real tricky or intensive thing.
    In my Premiere timeline, things render pretty quickly in the sequence. The show is composed of RED R3D 6K files, AJA KiPro quicktime files and some AVCHD stuff. Sequence timeline is 1080i29.97 for broadcast delivery. The sequence is rendering out to ProRes422 HQ. With no graphics, even the RED 6K files render out snappy. So I've brought these new graphics in as a Dynamic Link file. When I try to render out the graphics things get SUPER slow. Inordinately so. I don't get it. I thought the new "Render and Replace" would speed things up (great feature) however that seems to make things just as slow. So now I'm rendering out of After Effects the old fashioned way (each font is a 10 second file or so) with an alpha channel. I chose the 8-bit Cineform codec w/ alpha channel. Things rendered out, as expected, very quickly. A few minutes and all 42 fonts I built were done.
    So what I don't get is why render and replace is so much slower than manually rendering straight out from After Effects CC 2014.1. Based on the time stamps from a "render and replace" process I did overnight - it took about 6 hours to render out a handful of graphics. I rendered out twice the amount straight from After Effects CC 2014.1 this morning in like 5-10 minutes. Isn't render & replace basically just rendering stuff out straight from After Effects (or AME) in the background and then just popping it in your timeline? If that's what is supposed to be happening, I don't understand the discrepancy in time. I'll bring the rendered out files into Premiere and see how quickly that video renders over the original video.
    I just wanted to throw this out there to see if I'm missing some obvious thing or if this is as expected behavior.

    What, exact, version of CC 2014 do you have?
    How long have you used AE?
    When did this problem start?
    Have you tried rebooting your machine?

  • Ich will Premiere Pro CC abonnieren  - ist After Effect gleich mit dabei oder muss das extra abonniert werden??

    Ich muss zugeben das ich die Seite von Adobe relativ unübersichtlich finde. Ich benötige das Videoprogramm Premiere pro cc - möchte aber auch das After Effect dabei haben. Muss ich das separat ordern oder ist das in Premiere pro cc mit dabei? Ich benötige nur die beiden Programme, welches Abo ist das nun?
    Vielen Dank voraus.

    Es sind zwei separate Programme und rein rechnerisch lohnen sich die Single-App-Pläne dann schon nicht mehr und man kann gleich die volle Packung nehmen...

  • Premiere pro CC " Replace With After Effect Composition" Cinema DNG AKA CDNG  Issue

    I am trying to right click on a cinema dng file and do a "replace" with After Effects Composition. When doing so it only brings in a single frame rather than the entire adjusted video clip. Does anyone know a solution or workaround? Is Adobe aware of this problem? Will they continue to support Cinema DNG files? or should we lean to another NLE? Please advise adobe.

    Thanks.
    After some testing, it looks to be an After Effects issue.  The Replace command did open up AE, create a new project, import the segment of the clip I wanted, and created a proper composition with the correct duration.  It even opened up the Camera Raw adjustment panel for me to play around in.  The problem was that every frame of that 1 second long clip was identical, it was the first frame of the whole clip.
    When I went into the Media Browser and opened up the same clip from the hard drive, it too opened up as the whole clip seeing only that first frame.
    When I imported using a right click>Import command (exactly what we shouldn't be doing in PP with tapeless media), the clip came in properly with all frames.
    So AE is acting weird with CinemaDNG files, it seems.  You may have to start out in AE and DL from there to PP.

  • After latest CC update in April 2014: Premiere (7.2.2) and After Effects (12.2.1.5) preview / render problems

    I have both Pr and Ae previews/playback set to go through a canopus advc-100 feeding external ntsc monitors. After most recent CC update, AE no longer playbacks ram previews through the external monitor and often crashes. Premiere previews and renders only audio with video freezing on first frame in program playback and no playback on external monitors as well as no playhead movement on the timeline. Output-ed mp4 files playback fine with VLC or WMP. When I disable playback through the canopus, all problems go away. I would like to get my playback returned to my external monitors asap. I have completely wiped drives, reinstalled software, upgraded components, all with no luck. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. As a work around, I want to rollback the recent update to Pr 7.2.1 and Ae 12.2.1 to get back in working order until I am confident that Pr 7.2.2 and Ae 12.2.1.5 can once again output through my canopus.

  • Dynamic link between Premiere pro and After effects versions?

    I was wondering if it was possible to use the dynamic link between different version of the products like preimere pro cs5.5 and after effects cs5.0, I downloaded the trial of premiere cs5.5 while I already have bought and installed after effects 5.0 a while ago. when I tried using dynamic link with premiere 5.5 with my current after effects cs5, the "replace with after effects composition" in premiere was greyed out. I didnt know if this was just a limitation of the trial, or if the two different versions (PR cs5.5 with AE cs5) were incompatable with dynamic link. hope you guys understand the question, and any answers would be helpful!

    Ok so just to get this straight, in order to use dynamic link between adobe premiere pro and after effects you have to have the complete suite? or just the same version installed? all I want to be able to do is have a good workflow between premiere pro to after effects to get my vfx done, and then send them back to premiere seemlesly without spending $2000 dollars on the entire suite just to use those 2 programs and because the suite is way over my budget. is that the only possible way (other than cs6, because I dont have the $$ to update either)
