.mpg file imports to Premiere CS3 with no sound

do you know why when I import my .mpg files to sequence and then put them on a timeline - only wideo stream appeares and no sound... though .mpg files themselves do have sound?

I save
information like that in the PremiereProPedia so that people will find it when they do an Internet search.

Grass Valley MXF files imported to Premiere CS3 ?

Does anyone know if you can import Grass Valley MXF files into Premiere CS3, and if not, is there a program I can get that can take the MXF file and convert it into a different file?
Thanks
Josh
(We just upgraded Premiere to the latest upgrades)

I realize that this is very old, but I would like to point out that MXF files can be read/used by Premiere CS5.5... but not all MXF's are created equal. Our Canon MXF's come in just fine, however everything we shoot on our Grass Valley Infinity cameras can not be imported natively. For that we've had to either use Edius to import and convert the files to Premiere friendly files or purchase the Main Concepts MPEG 2 plugin. With that plugin the MXF files can be imported & edited in CS5.5.
Not sure about any of this in relation to CS3 though (assuming you haven't upgraded in the last 3 years).

Import a Premiere CS3 Project into Premiere Elements 7.

Is it possible (or NOT) import a Premiere CS3 Project into Premiere Elements 7?
Thanks a lot for any help.

It is only possible to open some PrE Projects into the right version of PrPro, but will not work the other way around. The error message that you will get is "This Project was created in Adobe PrPro and you need to open it in that program."
Even going the PrE to PrPro route is filled with potholes. I can open some PrE 4 Projects in PrPro 2.0, but not all - depends on what was done. Later versions of PrE will not open in PrPro 2.0, but some have opened in CS3 and CS4, though much can keep one from being able to do that.
Sorry for the bad news,
Hunt

Can I open psd file made in photoshop cs3 with photoshop ps2?

Can I open psd file made in photoshop cs3 with photoshop ps2? Thanks in advance!

Actually you can open a CS3 file with smart filters in CS2
the only problem is CS2 will not understand the Smart filter and flatten it.
If you leave the smart filtered object alone in CS2 save the file and it should still be a smart filtered object in CS3

I have an old project with AVCHD clips and I want to import the clips again with surround sound. How can I relink the project clips to the re-imported ones without doing the project from the begining?

I have an old project with AVCHD clips and I want to import the clips again with surround sound. How can I relink the project clips to the re-imported ones without doing the project from the begining?
I have a sony handicam and I imported the clips to iMovie and they lost quality and converted the audio to stereo. I want to import the project to final cut X and import the AVCHD in 1080p and surround sound and export the movie in bluray. Can I relink the clips without editing everything again?
thanks!

Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view.
Photos that were synced from a computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing. If you want to remove them all then normally you could just sync an empty folder (in terms of photos) to the iPad, but as you don't want to sync at the moment you can't do that.
You can reset the iPad back to factory settings and start from scratch with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings

Captured .avi file much shorter when imported as Premiere CS3 clip.

I'm new to Premiere CS3. My first project is to convert several old VHS tapes to DVD. My analog camcorder plays into an analog video-to-Firewire converter (ADSTech Pyro A/V Link). The Firewire digital stream was smoothly captured by Premiere and sent to my NTSF-formatted scratch disk under MS Windows XP Pro. The single .avi file (about 5 GB) plays back nicely in Windows Media Player which indicates a total length of 18min, 34sec. But when imported into a Premiere project, only the first 1min, 18sec appears.
What's up?

John--
I downloaded and ran GSpot v2.70a on my AVI file. Lot's of data!
In the GSpot "Container" window it reports these lines:
File Length Correct
DV Type 2 AVI
Multipart OpenDML AVI (5 parts)
(41160 frames in first part, -96 frames follow)
The "Video" report window says "Codec(s) are installed" with the name "DVC/DV Video." Actual length is 22m, 46.979s (which differs from my original statement because there a stretch of blank tape conversion after the actual content).
I think I'll repeat the transfer and be watching at the critical times.
Thanks for the pointer to GSpot and also thanks, Jim, for your response.

None. Have them send you the original media, P2 folder structure intact.

Why won't .avi files import into premiere pro cs6?

I have some GoPro footage in .avi format that won't import to Premiere Pro cs6. Anyone have suggestions?

AVI is a wrapper, what is inside YOUR wrapper - Exactly what is INSIDE the video you are editing?

AVI files imported to Premiere Elements 10 are blank. Files can be played using Windows Media.

I am trying to import AVI files to Premiere Elements 10 but they are blank. They show the proper time length for the file but I get no video or audio. When I attempt to import the files directly from my Flip (one of the import options) the files are not even discoverable. I am using Windows XP. Any suggestions?

My wife has a Flip camera, and I do not believe that AVI is what her camera uses (just checked... her Flip saves as .MP4)

Importing WAV files that have been modified with a sound editor

I tried importing a WAV file to Itunes which I had modified with a fade out effect to remove talking at the end of the song. When I played the song back in Itunes (after importing), the edit effect was ignored. Is there a way to import songs into Itunes so modifications done with a sound editor will be recognized?

Well, iTunes has no ability to undo edits, so the problem may lie elsewhere. Please try the following extra-extra-careful procedure:
- Edit the file and save it.
- Exit the editor.
- Make sure you know filename/location of the edited file, and that you are not confusing it with some unedited copy of the same song.
- Play the edited file in some other player than iTunes and make sure the edits are as you wished.
- Now, add the file to your iTunes library.
Pls try this and let us know.

No way to mix audio from Premiere CS3 with Audition 3??

As a last resort I logged to find the solution to my problem, but from what I can see there isn't any.
I would like to mix and process a Premiere project with 10 audio tracks in Audition. I'm much more familiar with Audition. Am I correct - is there no way to export a Premiere audio timeline for processing in Audition?? I find it hard to believe since I can do so from an Avid OMF to Audition.
Is there NO WAY?? If there isn't, then this is not a feature request - it's a demand, please.

Ozzie, I feel your pain.
A workaround would be to export stems from Premiere -- mic, effects, music, or whatever fits your production -- by muting/enabling the appropriate audio tracks. Then remix in Audition to taste.
At least that's what I tried on my latest video project. Convenient? No. Effective? Very.

Cannot import mpg files into Premier Pro CS3

I've read the wiki and looked through the FAQs and did not find this issue, so here goes.
The file began life as an mp4 from a GoPro HD camera. It plays correctly in Apple's software, but will not import into Premier. Found the KB on
Error message "Unsupported format or damaged file" when you import MP4 clips into Premiere Pro CS3 and changed the extension to MPG. This got me audio, but no video. The MPG plays correctly (audio and video) in Windows Media Player as well as in Bridge CS4.
Windows Vista 64-bit, 8 Gig RAM, Intel Q9300 Quad Core Processor, GeForce 9600 GT video card w/1Gig DDR3 RAM.
Any ideas?

PrPro is pretty well centered on pro formats. Many find that other NLE's, designed for consumer cameras and formats, work better and some natively. It's a tough call. I love the interface and workflow of PrPro, and use it 99% of the time. However, with heavily-compressed, delivery-only formats/CODEC's, some other NLE's work better - to start. I use those as converters, or do batch conversions with DigitalMedia converter, but it's shareware, and not freeware.
Some users want PrPro to embrace every possible CODEC and variation on each, with hourly updates, as mfgrs make changes, and others want it to only perform 100% with pro-formats and leave the consumer stuff totally alone - there is PrElements for that. Me? I just roll with the punches, and convert from X to Y, and edit in my chosen NLE. Kinda' the "Jimmy Buffett" of video editing.
Good luck,

Different contrast with original HD files and files imported in Premiere Pro CS4

I'm experiencing a very strange problem. Not the first time though.
When I import files shot with reflex video cameras this is what happens:
It seems something like shadow/highlights feature in Photoshop, but I haven't done anything to have
such a huge difference.
When I import files shot with my Sony HVR Z1 regular videocamera nothing weird happens and everything
works perfectly.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Alessandro

I now use CS5 and I do not use a "reflex" camera... so this is only a GUESS
Does your timeline have red over the "reflex" video when you 1st import, and before you do any work?
If yes, that means you have a mismatch between your project and your video

Why does speed grade crash when importing a premiere doc with a .mov file in the timeline?

Why am I not able to grade footage from my Canon 70D (.mov)?
Running CC everything, just completely cleaned out my system and only have programs related to adobe products installed.

VOB converted to AVI audio files imported to premiere play in different order than the video files

Hello there,
I extracted the VOB files from a burned dvd created with Adobe Premiere pro 1.5, I converted the files into AVI files, then I imported it to Premiere CS4. The video sequence on the timeline plays in the correct order but a very fast speed, and the audio sequence plays all the individual clips in a random order, not in the order that they were originally edited in.
What did I do wrong while importing or converting?
Elio38

Hi Elio,
What program, or utility did you use to convert the .vob files to .avi, and what was your target codec? I typically use SUPER Converter, which is free and very versatile, to convert program stream .vob files to a useable format that PPCS4 is compatible with. You can also directly import and edit a .vob file from a DVD in PPCS4 by simply changing the file extension to .mpg. However, doing so will eliminate the audio channel from the video clip in PPCS4.
I was able to recreate what I believe was your issue when I tried converting a .vob file to an .avi file, regardless of what codec I used. I had no issues what so ever when converting the .vob file to a .mov file using the DV codec, for example. It could be a bug with PPCS4 because the same .avi file I created with the DV codec played back fine in WMPlayer, and VLC, but played back almost in slow motion in PPCS4. It might be advantageous for you in the meantime to re-convert the .vob files to .mov files and just choose the standard DV codec.
Remember, you are trying to edit files that are intended for delivery and that were not originally designed to be edited. Attempting to edit inter-frame formats such as MPEG-2, MPEG-4, FLV, etc...has caused many a headache and even today, are not the easiest to work with.
