New document about sequence presets and codecs missing from Premiere Pro

If you're having problems with sequence presets and codecs missing from Premiere Pro, see this document for solutions for this activation issue.
This document relates to the following problems:
- missing sequence presets when creating a new sequence
- Encore error: "Encore will not launch in non-royalty bearing mode. The application needs to be serialized with a royalty bearing serial number."
- When opening a project in Premiere Pro: "Error Adobe Premiere Pro: This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
- When importing footage, the footage is missing audio or video.
These failures are all because Premiere Pro and Encore use some codecs that require activation before they can be used. If activation of these codecs has failed, these codecs will not be available to use.

Well done.

Color and contrast different from Premiere Pro 2 DVD creation

I found after creating DVD's via Premiere Pro 2 are more saturated and more neutral in color vs encoding through Encore.
I made a si8de by side test, converted them back to AVI and grabbed the same still of each. The Encore still was lower in contrast (flatter) and a slight bit warmer. over all the DVD compression from PP2 gives a richer look. If you are a film maker or photographer this matters a lot, but not for most users.
the file sizes from premiere are bigger. for example a 8mbs from a 7:30 avi compression on premiere resulted in 544mb while a 9.4 compression via encore 2 resulted in 464 mb. when changing the mbs from 8-9.4 mbs it resulted in exactly the same size file 464mb. even when starting a new project, which means that there might be a bug and encoding on a unknown predetermined mbs, probably 7. This would explain the flatter look of the Encore 2 compression.
Does anyone know how to find out at what rate a dvd has been encoded after it's done? knowing that there isn't any difference in the file size between 8mbs and 9.4 mbs shows that there must be a problem.
This test was done with the Encore DVD 2 trial version. I have vs 1.51 as well and will make a test on this one as well. to see if there is the same problem.

1. Can you detail your exact method, step-by-step, for both Premiere and Encore?
encode encoded in premiere 2 at the highest level 9mbs (didn't chapter for a simple auto disk, this is disabled in pp2 but you can save as an mpg2 and import for chaptering in Encore2)
2. Did you use the exact same source files for all tests, or just files that were the same duration?
Exactly the same source file, when importing the mpg2 into premiere i simply imported each file in the timelime and saved exactly the frame of each mpg2. All this started when i first compared 2 encodings from a film directors reel where quality is crucial, and saw it immidiatly when playing the 2 different dvd's of the same reel on a DVD player (JVC) and Sony monitor.
3. Be sure to include project settings and program preferences for both applications.
encore 2 encoded at cbr 1x 9mbps (highest)
Premiere 2 encoded at cbr 1x 8mbps (highest)
when setting to 9mbps in PP2 I get the3 following warning:
Total Video and audio bitrate (10.536 Mbs) exceeds maximum allowable bitrate (10.030 Mbps) for DVD type of muxing.
So i reduced the bitrate to 8 and still got a file of 557mb and better color and contrast than Encore2.
The final results of encoding in PP2 gives an identical DVD mpg as far as color and contrast to the original AVI.
When encoding at the max rate of 9 in PP1.5 i never got this warning.
I just repeated the above test on more time in PP2 and Encore DVD 2
they must use a different codec for Encore2 than PP2.
Besides the color and gamma shift the image size horizontally is a slight bit different (larger) than the one done with PP2, but not verically.
you can also encode in PP2 save it as a multiplexed mpg2 file and than chapter it for the final dvd in encore2 which gives you the higher quality results of PP2.

Mts codec missing from Premiere CS4, NOT trial version

I've been all over support trying to get this fixed today, I hope I don't skip a detail. This link is to the answer that seems closest to my issue, maybe
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3114069#3114069
I installed from my DVD's onto a laptop for a quick trip, didn't expect to need to leave it installed was going to use the trial and let it expire, no big deal, right? Discovered that I need to activate to get the MTS codec to use my footage (sony HDR--###), so fine, I deactivated my PC version and activated the laptop. Worked for a few days in the hotel. Now I need to produce, but I hadn't installed Encore. When I finish installing Encore nothing works right, so I deactivate and uninstall the whole suite from the laptop and re-install, get a activation problem (too many computers, worked it out with adobe chat) and once it was activated I didn't have the MTS codecs anymore, and since it's not a trial install, I can't figure out how to force the codec update.
Do I really need to go back again and wipe/reinstall, per the linked suggestion?

Do I really need to go back again and wipe/reinstall, per the linked suggestion?
Short answer: Yes, otherwise you will not get your mts codec.

How to create a new document type for PO and Requisition

Hi All
Can you please help me with the steps of creating a new document type for PO and PR. Also the steps that need to be update for the procure pay cycle to work properly.
Once the document type is been created. I want to create the PO referecing the new PR and PO document type.I am new in MM.
Thanks, Ros

Hi,
1. You can create new PR and PO docu types at the following path:
For PR docu type:
First you need to create number range for docu type or you can use existing number range also. The path for creation of no. range is
SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Number Ranges
Then create PR docu type at below path and assign no. range to PR docu type here only
SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Document Types
For PO docu type:
Follow same procedure as mentioned for PR docu type. Path is
SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Order->Define Number Ranges
SPRO>Materials Management>Purchasing->Purchase Order->Define Document Types
If you want to create PO referencing new PR docu type, link the PR docu type to PO docu type at below path:
SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Document Types--> Link purchase requisition - document type

Title Presets missing. Premiere Pro CS6

My title presets are missing in premiere pro, This occurs when I go to create a title and no presets are available. I have downloaded adobe encore CS6 fucntional content and Adobe Prtemire Pro CS6 Functional Content, as suggested by adobe and other forums. I just want title templates/preset to make workflow easier. I hope there is a simpel solution rather than a string of intricate procedures.

Hi Chris. We are looking into it and will update accordingly.

Right sequence and export settings in Premiere Pro CS6, video with still images

I am trying to run a video on my website (self hosted). This video, made with Premiere Pro CS6, consists of still images with different video effects.
This video is only 50 seconds, but when I transform this in the ogg, webm and mp4 format, I obtain file with large size and the quality is not good.
Could you please guide me to find out the right sequence and export settings in Premiere Pro CS6 to obtain a video for the best possible quality on the web?
A precise description of the settings would be awesome.
Thank you
Silvia

Make the export setting the resolution you want to use on the web.
Make the sequence settings accordantly to these export settings

Help! Trouble Rendering 16:9 footage in AE, and playing it in Premiere Pro!

I have two issues:
#1. I've spent hours searching for a solution to this dilemma, and I've only managed to come across "similar" problems other people have been having... However, I still cannot fix my problem.
Basically, I've been editing some footage in After Effects. The source material was filmed in HDV 1080, 30 fps; the source's aspect ratio was 1440 x 1080. I attempted to render the completely-edited footage in an AVI format with the compression codec: Xvid MPEG-4 Codec (as was suggested by a tutorial video on YouTube) and with an aspect ratio of 1024 x 768. But, no matter what I do, my rendered video always comes out horizontally "squeezed" when viewed in Windows Media Player, and when uploaded to YouTube/Facebook. Fortunately, when imported to Premiere Pro, I can interpret the footage properly so it's not squeezed.
Is there anyway I can render footage in After Effects so the widescreen product isn't "squeezed" in WMP/Facebook/YouTube?
#2. Even though the footage can be interpreted properly in Premiere Pro, the playback is jumpy - like, it'll only play 2 seconds smoothly, and then get stuck, jumping to points that are 5-7 seconds apart. Surprisingly, the original source material does not have this issue in Premiere Pro, despite having a larger aspect ratio and a file size that's more than twice as large. I thought maybe a small RAM was the problem, but my computer has 3.8 GB of usable space on the RAM when I checked. Rendering the work area after every little edit I do is getting too tedious, 'cause it takes about a minute to render the 12 second footage - but at least it plays back smoothly... I don't have to do this with the original source, though. Is there a way around this? What's causing the jumpy playback in Premiere Pro CS 5.5?
Thanks...

If you want to render for any media player (QT or Windows) you must use a square pixel format that's appropriate to the codec you're using. AE's presets that use square pixels are all legal frame sizes. If you want to have Premiere or any other NLE playback footage you render in After Effects without having to re-render the previews you must use the same codec you're using for the sequence.
Your frame size from Premiere is NOT square pixels, it's DVC Pro HD with a 1.33 PAR so unless you bring that footage into a square pixel comp (1920 X 1080 for example) or resize it on export using the Adobe Media Encoder (recommended) or by Resizing in the Output Module (not recommended for a bunch of reasons) the output is going to look squeezed in any media player.
Rendering to the Xvid MPEG 4 codec from AE isn't recommended at all because MPEG codecs only give good results when you use multi pass ending (AME will do that), but more importantly MPEG codecs are GOP codecs which make up the data for several virtual frames from a few real (i frames), and they take a tremendous amount of CPU power to decode.
Your best rendering choices are a lossless 10 bit codec (black magic for example) or a lossless like Animation Quicktime if you need alpha channels, or nearly lossless codec like Photo JPEG QT at 95% quality when you're doing further production on the footage including color correction, or to render to the same codec the camera uses. Only the same codec used for your PPro sequence will give you smooth playback in Premiere Pro without rendering previews.
If you told us what codec the camera uses we'd be able to help you figure out the best option for rendering.

Direct link from Premiere Pro to Speedgrade won't open and stops at the post processing bar.

I've just installed the new version of Speedgrade and every time I try to open a direct link from Premiere Pro to Speedgrade, it opens and starts to load, but when the post processing bar appears it stops there and doesn't open, I've gone back to the original versions of both programmes and that same thing happens, HLEP!

Hi Vinay,
1. I am using third party plug ins, and I understand that might be causing an issue, but I've also tried opening a new project with nothing in it at all, and that won't open.
2. Premiere Pro quits after the project loading bar or after I create a new project.
3. I used a lot of files! mov, mts, psd, ai, png, jpeg, and AE compositions through dynamic link.
4. The project has about five sequences. They range from 1 minute to 4 minutes.
Thanks!

Can't export clips or sequences to Audition from Premiere Pro cc 2014.2

I can't get audio tracks or anything to export to audition. If I right click on them the option is grayed out and if I go to the clip menu and select "edit in adobe audition" the "clip" is grayed out and if I choose sequence it opens a dialog box that will not let me click the box "open in adobe audition".
I am watching a how to video but my program will not function as shown in video.

I uninstalled Audition and reinstalled it. I read that it should be installed after premier pro cc. That restored the grayed out links. good, but now other problem.
Now the new issue is the export to premiere from Audition is greyed out.
I will try and get this make sense...
I installed premiere cs6 two days ago to get Encore for dvd burning and menus. After the uninstall/reinstall of audition just now I ran a check on the link and got stuff from premiere cc 2014 to launch into audition, but when I checked how to send it back to premiere pro cc 2014 when I went to export to premiere (and was able to check the open in Premiere box) it launched cs6, but I want it to go to my premiere cc 2014
So I uninstalled cs6 only leaving encore, now the box to send it to premiere is unable to be checked.
I tried another fresh install of audition, but the box is still unable to be checked.
I need help - been up all night and having a rough time here.

Pushing and pulling from Premiere Pro CS 5

Hi,
Recently, I came across a problem and I was wondering if you could confirm this is a limitation within Production Premium CS 5 or whether I am doing something incorrectly?
If I render a sequence within Premiere Pro and push it to Encore via Adobe Dynamic Link, the rendered sequence correctly shows its rendering within Encore. However, if I render my sequence, save, and exit from Premiere Pro and then start Encore and pull the sequence from Premiere Pro via the Adobe Dynamic Link, I don't necessarily keep the rendering. I know that this has happened when using a 64-bit plugin from a third-party. The sequence shows with a watermark as if it had never been registered. The problem further manifests itself by, when I restart Premiere Pro, while the rendering looks intact, if I click on the third-party plugin as if to modify it, it won't let me make changes until I delete the already rendered sequence. It seems like somehow, the sequence has become corrupted.
Any thoughts - is this a known problem? Has this been addressed with CS 5.5? Are there plans for this to be addressed? Is there a workaround?
Thanks,
Steve

The pros are faster encodes with superior quality. I use the free HC Encoder for MPEGs. You'll also need Avisynth to use it. The process is somewhat cumbersome, but if you have the time and want the quality, it's noticeably better, in my opinion.
To add to this, I've been producing commercial blu-rays using the free x264 encoder. The quality is unmatched by any commercial encoder, however there are some features absent that some commercial producers need (such as the ability to directly place I-frames, re-encode a section of GOPs with different bitrate targets, etc. which commercial encoders like CineVision can provide). If you don't have any need for those, x264 is the way to go. As quality is more important to me than bitrate, I use the single-pass constant ratefactor "--crf" mode with something better than the default, like 18 or 16, and it has never let me down.
Just be prepared to wait a while if you have a longform project. x264 is very fast, taking advantage of multi-core machines, but it cannot utilize the GPU/CUDA for encoding. A 3.5 hour 720p60 project (over 750,000 individual frames) at maximum quality takes a full 24 hours to encode on a 3.2GHz core i7, with all hardware threads at 100% (so make sure your machine is stable if it is overclocked!).

Why remove .flv export from Premiere Pro CC 2014? And what's a good workaround?

Why remove .flv export from Premiere Pro CC 2014? And what's a good workaround?

OK, so you want to put it on your own web page. That's fine as long as you know how to create a web page.
The next thing you have to decide is how big do you want the video to appear on the web page. Many people just post on YouTube and then embed the video into their web page. That way, the video can take advantage of all of the various sizes that YouTube provides.
In any case, I suggest that you use H.264. But the data rate depends on the size of the file. If you are going to display it in HD, then you probably want to start at about 20Mb/s and go up or down from there. The required data rate depends on what you find acceptable, and that depends on the amount of movement in the video. For example, a talking head next to a white board explaining something requires a lot less bits to represent the image because less changes are taking place from frame to frame. If you use 10Mb/s for that, you might find 20Mb/s or more is required to make you happy if you shot a football game from the sidelines.
I generally use settings that look like this image. If you have any questions as to why I choose these settings, feel free to ask.

Several video transitions are missing in Premiere Pro CC 2014. Where are they?

I recently upgraded to Premiere Pro CC 2014 from Premiere Pro CC. I had been working on a project using several video transitions which were no longer available in Premier Pro CC 2104. I thought maybe they would show up in a later update, but so far I have not seen my video transitions including several zoom transitions and others. What happened?
