Is changing Edit Quality Presets nescessary?

Hi,
It was such a long time that I used Encore, and that was some versions ago. Hopefully you can help me answer this simple (?) question:
What are the quality presets for?
The thing is, I forgot to choose a preset before I burnt out two copies, thus the default setting was set to blueray instead of dvd (CBR, high quality) that I wanted. The dvd plays fine on both computers and on the dvd-player for the TV, and of course it is impossible for it to be anything else but a dvd. So, do I even need to change the quality presets for it to work?
I use Encore CS4 and the movie is PAL Widescreen. I imported an avi and let Encore do the encoding. I also set it to "one copy allowed" option, later I heard this can also cause compatibilty problems.
Should I burn out two new copies or can I send the ones I have got to the customer?
Many thanks!
/Helena

This is really just to let you know that someone is reading... 'cause I can't answer
I do hobbyist home video work, and I always just export an AVI from PPro3 and let Encore do all the transcoding work with the authoring
As far as I know, the quality presets "mostly" have to do with how the encoder (I use the default 2 pass) handles scenes with lots of motion... which are the hardest to do well so they view without "motion artifacts"
Hopefully, someone with more knowledge will come along with a better answer
If your current DVD plays well, on more than one brand/model player, I wouldn't do it over

  • Impossible to keep the changes in "Edit Quality Preset"

    Hi,
    My Movie is a typical HD movie from a Panasonic Camera --> 1920x1080i (H264)
    However in my Encore Blu-Ray project, default settings are strangely set to Mpeg2 Blu-Ray at 1280x720
    The Video lasts 30 minutes and I also have a slideshow.
    -->the Blu-Ray generated with this has a very low quality (only 7GB when it could size 25GB...)...even if when played it seems to be in 1920x1080 and at a variable rate around 20 Mbits/s
    I tried to "Edit Quality Preset" : Blu-Ray H264, 1920x1080... and I save the preset. Then I click on the "OK" button and...nothing has changed.
    If I go again on "Edit Quality Preset", it is back to the same absurds settings.
    1)Why the settings are not really saved
    2)How can I improve quality to size 25GB
    Thank you.

    1) After you edit the quality presets (Modify, name, save), you must apply that modified preset to  your asset. It is a two step process. You describe only one "ok," so I think you have not applied the preset to the asset.
    You select the preset (including your modified one) in the "Transcode Settings" panel, not the "Edit Quality Presets" Panel.
    That should help you get the quality you are looking for.
    Note that slideshow quality is determined by the default transcode for the project when set to bluray.

  • CANNOT CHANGE QUALITY PRESETS

    Captured video is 1920x1080p, AVCHD format, using Adobe Premiere pro CS5 and Encore CS5, win 7 computer. Used Adobe dynamic link to get edited source into Encore. It uses quality presets 720x480, 29.97fps. I edit and build in Encore which results in a 4x3 DVD. Encore will not let me change the presets to a widescreen setting. When I select edit quality presets, MPEG2-DVD. & widescreen, OK... Encore just hangs. This is my first experience with Encore in a new turnkey computer. Could it possibly be a faulty software installation?
    Thanks..... Gordon

    You might want to check the interprete footage.
    Best is not use DL as it reverses the fields for DVD. Export directly from Premiere then import these files into Encore. Make menu and burn to disk.

  • How do I get CS4 Change Quality Presets to be used and remove black bars?

    In Encore CS4 I CAN change the quality preset to what I want, but then when I go back to the project it does not stick.  I tried to get to transcode settings, but they are greyed out.  There does not seem to be a way to "USE" the quality preset I have saved!
    This is a single video clip that I sent to Encore from Premier Pro CS4 so I could make DVD and BD's.  However it seems I am unable to make a DVD at 4 Mbps (so I can combine this Premier Pro Project with another on a single DVD) no matter what I try.  Also I notice the BD I made was not m2v like I am used to in CS3, and therefore are not sure I can combine it with a menu and another clip on a single BD as I have done numerous times in CS3 Encore.
    I also notice as I look at preview, and then also when a made a default setting DVD that there are black bars on either side of the picture.  This was a 1440X1080 60i project in Premier Pro CS3 and I am desireing to make ait a 1920 X 1080 DVD.
    Neither of these were problems in Premier Pro CS3 and I am thinking the way around this is to spend the day or two and redo the project in CS3.  I have done many projects successfully in CS3 and mistakenly thought I could just pick up the project in CS4 and be successful again.  If anyone knows how to resolve these in CS4, it would save this extra work, if not, I will join the crowd with CS4 "issues" and go back to CS3.

    First, on the black bars.  I do not want them at all.  I cannnot post a screenshot now as
    file attachments are turned off temporarily, but they are about 5% on either side.  Totally unacceptable especially when in CS3 when exported to Encore there are NO black bars either visible in Encore or in the resulting DVD's
    On the options and is the preset saved.  I can close Encore and open it afresh and find the preset that I saved listed in the dropdown of presets with the name I saved it as and all the settings the way I want them.
    On the issue of Transcode settings when selecting the resource...  When I select the resource in the Project panel, or in the Timeline tab, the Transcode settings is greyed out.  I have consulted the help screens and forums for various ways to change the transcode settings and none of the suggested ways work.
    It looks like my CS4 install does not work the way yours does.  I am about to completely unistall CS4 and CS3 and all other Adobe products and try a fresh reinstall to see if that works.  Most likely I will simply reinstall CS#, since that works, and abandon CS4 for now as I am getting way behind on my work, and know I can finish with CS3.  I have also heard form others that Sony Vegas is really solid and does not have all these weird bugs such as seen in CS4 and CS5, and is a much less bloated product and does the encodings faster.  Since it is also less expensive, this seems too good to be true, but work a trial.  So first rip every Adobe product off  my PC and format the HD and start fress with JUST CS3 and get my work done.  Then try Vegas to see if it is as good as my buddies say, if so bye bye Adobe!

  • Changing a sequence preset after editing

    Hey everyone. I'm in a situation where I chose the wrong preset, edited my project with nested sequences and a multicam sequence, and now need to change the sequence preset or adjust the frame size. Is it possible to change the preset of a sequence without making a new one? This wouldnt be a problem if I didn't have a nested sequence in my project. Thanks!

    Yeah thats the problem. I'll lose all of my edited footage that I created with the multi-cam editor, since that sequence depends on another sequence that was the wrong preset. I'd have to redo the entire project basically

  • Changing video quality of a video sets quality to 240p and cannot continue playing video

    I cannot continue the video in any way except for refreshing the page.
    I am using the HTML5 version of youtube.
    The problem occurs after restarting with addons disabled.

  • Best Quality Preset/setting for 16:9 DVD

    What do you think is the best quality preset for a DVD to be played at today´s LCD, Plasma or LED TVs? Actual film has been shot with a Panasonic DVX 100BE in 16:9 without black borders, Edited in Pr 5.5.

    If you want to play your dvd on a big HD tv you need a dvd-player with upscaler otherwise it will look awful.
    Use DL or export your timeline directly to mpeg2-dvd.

  • Allow SET button on 6D to change White Balance Preset

    On the EOS 6D right now, there is no fast/easy way to change/set the White Balance. Even my old 30D camera has a WB button where you press it, then rotate the main dial to change the WB presets.
    On the 6D right now, you can customize the SET button to change IMAGE QUALITY, PICTURE STYLE, MENU, ISO (hold the set button and rotate the main dial), FLASH COMPENSATION. 
    I wish Canon could include White Balance as one of the options. There are already a button for ISO and MENU, yet they're included in the option. I bet everyone who is using the 6D miss the WB button. That's the first one I notice when using the 6D.
    Just my wishful thinking, but I doubt that anyone from Canon will read this one.

    Hi,
    The missing WB button is something we noticed right after the announcement and we also don't understand why Canon removed it, since it so important for Photography and Video.
    Your request is completely logical and fair, and can be implemented via Firmware.
    - I suggest you to contact Canon and let them know your request, all EOS 6D users should do the same indeed.:
    Canon Customer Support Center:
    Phone: 1-800-OK-CANON / 1-800-652-2666
    TDD: 1-866-251-3752
    Email: carecenter (at) cits (dot) canon (dot) com
    - Maybe there is a section on this forum to report issues and request improvements?
    Please post here the reply from Canon and let us know the progress.

  • Create Editable Sequence Preset from Clip

    Hi,
    I want to reverse engineer a sequence preset so that I can down-res the final video but utilize the same codec/playback settings from the full res file.  Is there a way to create an editable Sequence preset off of clip setting?  I see how the sequence can get set to the settings of the original file (by dropping it into a blank sequence and choosing "Change Sequence settings...") but not how to edit them after that. 
    Is this possible? 

    Him Jim,
    I had thought about that but wasn't sure if the "Playback Settings" button would come into play but it appears that it's always disabled.   Would there be a case where that would need to be clicked/edited?
    Thanks!

  • How do i change the quality settings of my printer? the options are there but greyed out!

    how do i change the quality settings of my printer? the options are there but greyed out! ie on my old HP I could print in draft if i wanted to print a doc to read and then bin...the option/box is there but greyed out so I can't select. HELP!!!

    You can change the background display color in the playback preferences, either black, white, or checkerboard. This does not change the output color. If you want to add a color to the video, you have to place a custom generator underneath your video and change the color in the inspector.

  • How do you change the quality of imported PDFs?

    I have been creating fillable forms in LiveCycle ES2, using my companies existing PDFs, importing them as fixed images, and adding form elements on top. When I have been looking back at what LiveCycle is producing in terms of quality, versus the PDFs I initially import in Acrobat, the quality is substantially worse in LiveCycle, and any PDFs that I import into and save from LiveCycle look to be a much lower quality. The images of our forms I am importing into Acrobat are 250dpi, 8.5x11. They look crisp and clean in Acrobat. When they are imported, the text looks more grainy when zoomed in, and the logos have jagged edges. I read that LiveCycle, by default, imports PDFs as a medium quality JPG. First, is there any way around this? I can't find an option anywhere to change the quality. If not, is there a workaround that would allow me to accomplish my goals?
    I created a new, blank form in LiveCycle, added an image, and set it as the image of my PDF form. The quality is significantly better, however, the hierarchy is substantially different than when importing a fixed PDF, and I will lose my OCR recognized text from my original PDF.

    Kyle,
    Thanks for your response. To be clear, the way I am importing the PDF is by going to New in LiveCycle, and selecting Import a PDF document, and selecting Create and Interactive Form with Fixed Pages.
    I cannot change the forms or pages, as they are created by our local Board. In otherwords, I have tryed used the flowable content, and upon import, not only are the fonts slightly different, but all the important artwork (trade-related) is gone, and is not in the exact positions it was in. The forms must meet the standards to which they were approved by the regional board, and there are state-mandated forms as well.
    What surprises me is that you say this method of Fixed Content isn't used much any more. I would think that a lot of people would have PDF files they would wish to make into fillable, interactive forms without needing to reconstruct the entire document. Perhaps a company that has always done things on paper, and now wishes to use those exact same forms on the computer, with no deviations to looks so they can be printed and match up perfectly.
    I thought about using Acrobat's internal form creation system. However, some of these forms have sophisticated options and the calculation scripts and systems within LiveCycle are very useful. Not to mention that it has a much larger scalability, should we chose to utilize it.
    Any other suggestions? I am so confused why Adobe would force medium-quality import of a PDF, but be so incredibly flexible about every other option in their program.

  • Custom settings of Edit-in Preset not applied to image in PS

    I am having a problem with my custom made EDIT-IN Preset. While clicking on it launches the image (dng, psd or tiff) in PS, the custom settings of the preset (in my case: 8bit, sRGB) are not applied to the image. Instead the image is opened in PS with the default settings as specified in the Preference menu (in my case: 16bit, ProPhoto RGB).
    I am running LR2.2 & PS CS3 (10.0.1) on a 64bit Windows Vista Business machine.
    The settings of the preset are:
    Application: Photoshop.exe
    File Format: TIFF
    Color Space: sRGB
    Bit Depth: 8 Bits
    Resolution: 240
    Compression: None

  • Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto?

    Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto?  Changing the quality of the print changes the size of the saved file and thus impacts the speed at which it is moved on the internet.  But other than size of the file, what is the advantage of changing the quality?

    I have no idea why you would want to do anything
    Some people want lower quality to reduce file size for different reasons
    It is an option - if you do pot want to do that do not use that option
