Live Stream Green Screen with Adobe Premiere

So at my school I am head tech for the morning news which is a live broadcast that is sent throughout the entire school. Right now we have a blank green background and my Teacher asked me to setup a way for us to broadcast the news with a green screen live. After about a month of attempts none have proven worthy for the situation is not the best:
- The output signal that is used to broadcast to the school is old analog: it runs on a coaxial plug. However, we have a modulator that takes in s-video and RCA and converts that to coaxial
- We have adobe Premiere on new computers but they don't have a suitable coaxial output, I could possibly install a graphics card we have but since they are new and are school PCs, I cant really do that
- The camera is nothing fancy, put does have a fire wire and RCA output, but the computers do not have none of those inputs, however we do have a converter from fire wire to USB
- The new computers have no RCA or s-video outputs(like I said, they are new and the broadcasting setup is old) but we still have one old laptop that we can clone the screen to the broadcast for it has an s-video output.(Possibly we could stream from the new PC to the old one and clone it to the TV?)
- The new computers do have extra VGA outputs, so could you possibly convert that to s-video? (Cus they are both analog?)
Like I said, this is a very sticky situation. My closest idea is that we could some how stream the green screen video from the new PC to the old one that would then broadcast it, but I do not know how to do that and the camera will not register with Premiere even when plugged in via converter... I believe it is because we do not have a capture card, the only capture card I could even use though would have to be external for I cannot open the new PCs under the school policies. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas on how I could solve this enigma, that would mean a million.

Remove Green Screen with Adobe Photoshop Elements

Hi,
I have setup a Green Screen in my home. I took some pictures of my wife with the Green Screen Background and want to remove the Green Screen and replace with a different background. I was able to do this via the Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0 but need help with the Photoshop Elements.
Any help is appreciated.
Sridhar

FWIW, She is really easy to select on that green screen if you use a few tricks. The screen shots are in CS3 my preference but worked with Elements limitations to show you how easy she can be selected without any filters.
My end product doesn't look as good as Mark's though. That's a tough act to follow. Thought I'd post this anyway just in case you couldn't get that filter to work in Photoshop Elements 7,
First, make a copy of the image and desaturate it to make it black and white. I prefer using Hue/Saturation from the image menu (CTRL U) and moving desat slider down to -100. Next Invert it (CTRL I), then run levels from the image menu (CTRL L) to push the image towards pure white and black...well close. It should look something like this when these steps are done.
Copy this image to a new layer. (Just in case something goes wrong so you don't have to repeat the last steps). Leave the copy in Normal blend mode. Grab your paint brush tool. Set the brush tool's mode to Overlay blend mode. You will use black and white paint to push dark gray to black and light gray to white. When done, it should look something like this:
Not perfect...I did this really fast and was a bit sloppy and didn't get all of my light grays pushed to whites. Probably not a problem for the hair edges but would need to be fixed for face and body areas as this will be a mask to make the selection.
Select mask that was just made and copy it into your clipboard. Select<All; Edit<Copy. Create and adustment layer mask that has a mask. I used the Solid Color Fill Adjustment layer. Alt click the mask of the adjustment layer you created. It will turn the document white. This is because the mask is now the focus. Now paste. Edit<Paste. This will paste the above mask into the adjustment layer mask. Now, either alt click the mask or click on another layer to remove the focus from the mask. You'll use this adjustment layer as a base to a clipping mask. See next paragraph.
The Solid color fill layer (or whatever you picked) with your mask is going to be the base on which your selection will be built. Create a copy of your original image up above this base layer. Now, hold in the alt key and move your curser in the layers pallete to the line separating these two layers. Notice the cursor changes to an odd symbol...a solid ring and a hollow ring with an arrow. Click the palette on the line separating these two layers. (Release alt key when done.) She should now be covering the mask you created. Areas that are white in the adjustment layer mask will show the original image; areas in black in the adjustment layer mask will be transparent. (Areas that contain shades of gray would be semi-transparent...amount based on the gray's brightness value.)
For the green cast on the edges, I removed that by using a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer to remove the green spill over. If you only wanted to effect the girl and not a new background add it to clipping mask. (Same way...alt click the line between her image and the Hue/Saturation layer.)
Not perfect but this is what I came up with based on the above mask:

Green Screen with Adobe Flash

I suddenly have a green screen whenever I try to watch a video. I have seen the suggestion to disable hardware acceleration. However, when I right click to access that setting, I don't even have a display tab at all and therefore can't disable the hardware acceleration. HELP!

I have an HP laptop preloaded with Adobe Premiere Elements 10. For whatever reason Elements will "run" on click, but not even open the load screen or anything and then act like I never tried to open it? whats going on?

I bought my HP laptop in 2012, and it came preloaded with Adobe Premiere and Photoshop Elements 10
It worked fine and I even made a few video edits back in 2012 but for the last year Elements just REFUSES to work properly
I used to be able to open elements to at least the "what do you want to do?" screen
But now It won't even open this...I have no idea why...
If I double click the Elements application my computer slows down, bracing itself to load, and then ....thats it....it reverts to its normal speed and elements just doesn't open...
Any help would be great cause I feel like I've exhuasted all self-troubelshooting options and need to either get help from the forums or take the laptop in before I smash it in rage

Thanks for the reply with additional information.
Recent history for Premiere Elements points to the program having problems when more than 1 video card/graphics card is
being used by the computer on which Premiere Elements is running. This observation may seem contra indicated by the fact
that you say that the program did work well about 2 years ago in the same setup. But other factors may have set in with regard
to drivers, drivers versions, and driver conflicts. But this factor, does need to be ruled in or out.
Can you disable one or the other card to determine the impact of this on your problem?
But, of prime concern with regard to video card/graphics card is the use of a NVIDIA GeForce card with Premiere Elements 10.
Even if your NVIDIA GeForce were the only card, Premiere Elements 10 will not work properly unless the NVIDIA GeForce driver
version is rolled back to about May 2013. This may be one of the major factors here.
a. Device Manager/Display Adapters and find out Driver Version and Driver Date
b. Read the background information for the Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
Also see the Announcement at the top of this forum regarding the matter - also with full details of the situation and how to fix with the
driver version roll back.
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
Thanks.

Add On...This NVIDIA GeForce situation is specific for Premiere Elements 10. You should not expect to see the problem for
later versions of Premiere Elements.

PrE 12. How to deal with black screen "Created with Adobe Premiere Elements trial version"?

I'm really considering purchasing PrE 12 and would like to try it out. (I have another video editing software and would like to try this one.)
When I add video, I get a black screen "Created with Adobe Premiere Elements trial version". When I hit play, I can hear audio, but I don't get any video (just the black screen). Is there a work around, a setting that I can change, or is the trial version supposed to show the black screen?

FCP 10.1 DV capturing from camera breaking the scenes into unwanted clips by flashing a black screen on import window. But its fine and accurate with adobe premiere pro cc ?
Any solution * Advance Thanks

FCP X will import into separate clips every time it detects a scene change (as when you stopped and started recording in the camera). There is no option to avoid this, as far as I known.
You may try importing from camera using Quicktime Player X and then bringing the imported file into FCP X.

XDCAM HD workflow with Adobe Premiere Pro CC and Macbook Pro

Hi folks,
I have an assignment for a TV production to secure and convert the data (mxf files XDCAM HD 422 1080i 50 / 50 Mbit/sec with 8 audio channels) from Sony XDCAM camcorders (PDW-700) for postproduction.
The producer wants me to convert the mxf files during production to Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) for faster and smooth editing during postproduction.
I'm not sure about the final output yet, but I guess it will be either 720p50 or 1080i 25, since the production will be broadcast and as far as I know this is the standard for HD on German television. It is also not clear which NLE will be used for editing (usually one of the producers edits their projects with FCP, but this time they've got their hands full and are still looking for someone to outsource postproduction.
Unfortunately, my Macbook is getting fixed as we speak, so I can't try things out.
Since this is the first time I'm doing this workflow, could someone please check if I got everything right?
1. Can someone please confirm that I can actually convert the mxf files using AME CC to Apple ProRes 422?
Or do I need to install any other tools/converters for this task? Does MPEG streamclip do the job? Any other freeware?
2. When converting to Apple ProRes422, the producer suggested to deinterlace the footage (1080i 50) to 25p, if 720p or 1080p I have to find out tomorrow since our conversation got interrupted this afternoon.
In my opinion this doesn't make sense, though. First, if output to 1080i 25 it has to stay interlaced anyway. Second, in case the output will be 720p 50 I would edit the footage either natively or in Apple ProRes 422, but leave deinterlacing until the very end when outputting to the final format. This way I could use an advanced deinterlacer, e.g. the one from Magic Bullet Suite, rather than just checking some deinterlace box in the export settings for Apple ProRes 422.
The reason the producer suggested to deinterlace right away when using an intermediate like ProRes was that she and the client got irritated by the jagged lines from the interlaced footage when editing the last project with the same requirements on a progressive display.
3. What would be the best solution to tackle this issue (jagged lines) during editing?
As I said my Mac is getting fixed, so I have no way of trying things out,and I usually edit DSLR footage which is progressive anyway.
But if I remember correctly I can switch my monitor between 1080p and 1080i. This should do the trick, shouldn't it?
4. Can I keep all of the 8 audio tracks when converting to ProRes using AME CC ?
5. Is ProRes422 (HQ) really necessary, or is the regular quality sufficient for this kind of job?
6. Let's assume the whole project would be edited within Adobe Premiere Pro CC and system specs as stated below:
Since Adobe Premiere Pro CC has native support for XDCAM HD is there any advantage of using an intermediate like ProRes at all?
How smooth is native editing with XDCAM HD in Premiere Pro CC? I don't think there will be more than 3-4 video tracks in use...
Thanks for your help!

Thanks Jim! I knew there must be a reason xdcam is widely uses for eng aquistion :) I think they used FCP 6 or 7 on their last project... So what about monitoring interlaced footage on a progressive screen? Any advice on that? Is there a converter built in to APP CC that deinterlaces in realtime when monitoring interlaced sources on a progressive screen? And would you agree that deinterlacing source material is best left right before outputting?

Problem with Adobe Premiere Elements 10 : error DW046

Dear community members,
I have bought Adobe Premiere Elements 10 and installed it from the DVDs on my MAC OSX10.5.8 on december 27, 2013
When creating a new project , I get the following message :
following a serious error, Premiere Elements 10 must stop
Then I click OK and I get a new message :
The Premiere 10 application has closed suddenly after having been rebooted
Then I end up to the error report window. I have sent the error report to Apple ( I can send it to you if you want)
I have also got the following error message :
DW046 : following conflicting process were running, block : dynamiclinkmanager
Notice : it seems this problem is occuring since I underwent a power failure while working on a project. When I want to open an existing project I get the following message :
it seems that Premiere Elements has closed in an unexpected way during the last session. Do you want to open the previous project?
When I say YES, I save it and it comes back to the welcome menu and I cannot see this project.
I have tried to deinstall and reinstall Premiere 10 : this is impossible since I am required to deactivate dynamiclinkmanager that I cannot find.
Notice that Adobe AIR is unable to find a solution whilst it recognizes there is a problem.
Thanks you for your help

AT Romano,
The various links you have provided were very helpful. I could kill the dynamiclinkmanager.
It seems that it is now working.
Thank you, your reply was very quick and your advices very good

When you get the message
it seems that Premiere Elements has closed in an unexpected way during the last session. Do you want to open the previous project?
Do you go to the last AutoSave to open that or do you go to the save location of the project file (project.prel) to open that file?
Are you getting message to close the dynamiclinkmanager so that you can move forward?
If so, please check out dynamiclinkmanager location in the following link

Adobe Premiere shows "Created with Adobe Premiere trial version"

Adobe Premiere shows "Created with Adobe Premiere trial version" I thought it's a fully function trial isn't that right? I made one project to test the program and it didn't have that on the screen but when i started working on the second one it started showing the message on all the videos "fyi i just downloaded it today"
I appreciate your help

It may depend on which Codec you are using. I know we had to reduce the functionality of Premiere in the past due to licensing concerns. Was there differences in the encoding you used for the video between the two projects?

Yosemite upgrade causing issues with Adobe Premiere Elements 10

Hi,
Over the last weekend I upgraded my mid-2010 iMac to Yosemite from Snow Leopard and it seems to have caused an error with Adobe Premiere Elements 10.
Prior to upgrading I was working on a project without issue. Now, when I try to open it I get an error "The project is not compatible with current version of Premiere Elements".
I have tried other projects and some open without issue whilst others also present the same error. The difference between the projects appears to be whether a DVD menu has been selected. If the project has one - it fails to open.
It seems strange that the OS would affect software in this way but that is all that has been changed.
If someone can shed some light on this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

No bug. Just the way the .psd for the Scary Halloween template was put together.
You are going to have to get into the .psd for the Scary Halloween template and rearrange the
Layer Sets. Do you know how to do that? If not, I will give you very specific instructions on how to
do that.
You want the order of the Layer Sets to look like
