New Sequence Question - for slow motion video

Hi,
I'm a very new user of Premier. I've recently had issues with choppy playback of my preview videos. After much research I believe the issue was down to two things. Firstly my sequence did not match my input clip, I had it set to my desired output. Secondly, I was editing video across my network, rather than bringing it locally to my PC. I've fixed the latter issue by copying video files to my local machine and then moving them back onto the network once I've finished editing.
The advice out there essentially seems to be to match your sequence to your primary input video. I've done that and it helps. However, it's raised a big question for me. My input video is from a GoPro and is at 1080p 50fps. I ultimately want my output video to be slowed down to 25fps (resulting in a constant slow motion effect throughout the entire sequence).
If my sequence settings are set to match the input clip (50fps) and I slow the video down by 50%, will that result in an unsmooth video? My basic understanding is that if I slow 50fps video down by 50% then Premier will have to double the amount of frames. Where as previously, if I slowed it down by 50% Premier had enough frames to play with as the output video was 25fps.
Hopefully my question makes sense! Any advice on what the best approach is? Or is this a complete non-issue when it comes to exporting the video (providing I export to a 25fps formart)?
Thanks,

I think you said it OK, you are just missing the right words to do what you want. Let's walk through this for you, and for others that might read it later.
If you take a 50 frame per second video and put it into a sequence created from it, then slow it down 50% it doubles up each frame to achieve slow motion. Not what you want.
If you take a 50 frame per second video and put it into a 25 fps sequence, it drops half the frames to play at normal speed. Not what you want.
What you want to do is interpret the 50 fps video to 25 fps, then drop it into a 25 fps sequence. Each frame will play at 25 fps and generally be smooth as silk.
I don't have any 50 fps clips handy, but here are examples of taking 60 fps to 30 fps. (Excuse the idiot way that we Americans do things. Our 30 is actually 29.97 etc)
First, right click on the clip in the Project Panel, select Modify, and Interpret Footage. Then change the 50 to 25 - similar to this image:

Question about Camera/Premiere Settings for Slow Motion Video

I'm new to shooting video with cameras that have manual options, so I'm not exactly sure how I should set up the camera settings. It's a Canon 60D. Basically in the video I want to make, I'd like to have a lot of normal speed to slow motion transitions. Some of the video footage will be very fast paced, so I'd like to slow it down as much as possible without making the video appear jumpy. I assume I should change the frame rate on the camera to 60 fps. Is there anything else I should adjust within the settings?
I will be editing with premiere elements if you know of any additional tips for that.
Thank you in advance!

The speed of your camcorder doesn't matter. You can apply Time Stretch to any video clip.
There's a limit to how much you can slow it, of course. With that camera and Premiere Elements, you're not going to be able to slow down a water spray so you an see the individual droplets or anything like that. But, if you combine TimeStretch and Frame Blend, you should get very good results slowing your footage down a certain amount.
How much you can slow it and still be satisfied with the results is kind of a judgment call. So I encourage you to experiment and see what your tolerance is.

New Sequence Settings for iPhone 4 Video?

Hey everyone! I looked through the CS4 forum and didn't find an answer to this question, so thought I would post it here.
I am using Premiere Pro CS4. I have taken HD video using my iPhone 4 (1280x720, 29 fps, data rate 11011kbps, etc). I want to splice together a series of these short videos, but am unsure of how to keep the HD picture quality when I export to a new *.avi file. Each time I export to an avi my resolution and picture quality drop considerably. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to keep the 720p quality? I am sure my problem is the wrong video preset (I've tried HDV 720p30 and HDV 1080p30 without luck). Any suggestions here would be appreciated!

Now, if you will wish to create DVD-Video, then you might wish to consider maybe two different Exports. One for other playback, and then look at down-rezzing for SD/DVD-Video playback. This ARTICLE should give you some tips on HD to SD.
Good luck,
Hunt

Slow-motion videos do not play as edited (fps) on Mac

Hi all,
I just received my iPhone 6 yesterday, and have been playing with the slow-motion video feature. I moved a few over to my computer using Image Capture, and they played fine in their slow-motion, 240 fps. However, the problem is that it doesn't play the video as it was edited on my iPhone (parts of it sped up, and parts of it slowed down). It plays the whole video in slow-motion, which can be a little annoying watching an entire video.
Thanks, all, for any help!
P.S. I'm using OS X version 10.9.4

In Firefox, click Tools>Add-ons. Make sure the Shockwave Flash plugin is enabled and "Always activated".
If that fails, see: How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X in the Adobe Forums. That will clear out the pluigins and allow a fresh install with the new plugin.

How to properly timewarp 59.94 footage for slow motion effect for 29.97 output

I have footage filmed in 59.94 that I want to use for slow motion effects and output to 29.97. Using timewarp I seem to get duplicate frames at times. What would the best workflow to accomplish the cleanest result? I've tried interpreting the footage at 29.97 and keeping it at its native 59.94. At this point I feel like I'm just confusing myself further by just trying random things. Thanks!

Always interpret footage as what it really is. If it is really 59.94 progressive then that's what it should be interpreted as. It will play at the right speed in any comp of any frame rate. IOW, if the footage is 10 seconds and you put it in a 99fps comp and play it back at full frame rate the clip will still be 10 seconds long. If you put it in a comp that's 15 frames per second, the clip will still be 10 seconds long.
Make sure you understand that.
There is a chance, and a good chance, that your footage is actually full frame 59.94 fps video. That's why I suggested putting it in a comp that's also 59.94 fps and checking for duplicate frames.
There is also a chance that your footage is actually 29.97 fps interlaced. If you separate fields and look at the footage in a 59.94 fps comp you won't see any duplicate frames.
To change the speed of the clip you just need to apply Time Remapping, Time Warp, or any of the other Time Time tools in AE. It doesn't make any difference what the frame rate of the composition is, you'll be changing the length of the clip.
To keep from creating duplicate frames you either need software that interprets the new, extra frames or you need to use an exact whole number multiple of the frame rate for rendering.
Where did you get the footage? What Camera? What are you trying to do with it? What is the final destination (delivery) for your project.

Wave in slow motion video type

Hi.When i use slow motion video type, it is some waves in the picture and i think its because of a problem.but when i use video type there is not any wave.
what is the problem and what should i do?

Thanks for your reply. My source footage consists of MTS files from an AVCHD camcorder. The files are 1080i anamorphic, so 1440x1080, with an aspect ration of 1.333 and a framerate of 29.97fps. I used one of the AVCHD sequence templates in Premiere CS5 that matched the video files.
I'm exorting using the H.264 Bluray preset for 1080i. I tried several of the profiles (1080p, etc), but they all end with the same bad result. The video plays, but seems to be playing at half speed. My 15-minute clip takes 30 minutes to play, even though the timline in VLC or WMP reports at 15 minutes. The audio sounds fine, but stops after 15 minutes (as it should). It's obviously out of sync, since the video is playing at half speed.
I have read a few other articles indicating it might be an issue with the way Premiere is interpreting the interlaced footage from the MTS files? This is beyond my area of knowledge.
When I encode using the MPEG-2 Bluray profile, it works fine. The video playback speed is normal.
My end goal is to edit my MTS files from the camcorder, encode using the H.264 profile, and place in an MKV container for playback on my XBMC-based HTPC. I'm also considering exporting as a high-bitrate MPEG-2, then using another encoder (HandBrake, etc.) to create the x264 MKV. Any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Slow motion video from computer (backup) back to device?

I keep getting idiotic bugs on my iPhone 6, and have been through all the iOS versions. So I have to keep doing resets with iTunes (deletes everything).
I have quite a few slow motion videos on my phone. I back them up before the reset by simply copying everything in the DCIM subfolder to my computer. Question is....how to get the videos back on the phone after a reset, and register as slow motion? It seems impossible. Syncing a folder back with iTunes does not do this. Copying files back onto the camera roll folder is impossible. All I can ever do is get videos back but play in full speed. Thus rendering all slow motion captured useless.
Have Apple completely messed this up?

You have to email it to yourself to preserve the slow-motion effect.

Are bursts and slow motion videos transfered as they are to a PC

I wasn't sure how to ask this question in short. I have an iPhone 5s and a Windows computer. When I take a burst photo, how does it work when I transfer the photos/videos directly to my computer? (not going through iTunes) Do the bursts save as individual pictures or are they lost? or maybe you can only see them on your iPhone? Also with slow motion videos, I know they don't save as slow motion unless you save them again as if that was real life capture. I do believe that they become slow motion again if i put them back on my phone, as the format is probably the same. Is this true?

Premiere Pro just doesn't do slow motion very well, especially not with 24 fps footage. You can help correct that:

Xcode currentPlaybackRate Slow Motion Video App

Hi,
I´d like to programm an App which has the opportunity for slow motion playing of movie files.
How can I use the
currentPlaybackRate method
in my code:
-(IBAction)playMovieSlow: (id)sender {
NSString *titleOfButton = [sender titleForState:UIControlStateNormal];
NSBundle *bundle = [NSBundle mainBundle];
NSString *moviePath = [bundle pathForResource:titleOfButton ofType:@"mov"];
NSURL *movieURL = [ NSURL fileURLWithPath:moviePath];
MPMoviePlayerController *themovie = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc]initWithContentURL: movieURL];
[themovie play];
[themovie release];
MPMoviePlayerViewController *moviePlayer = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:movieURL];
[self presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:moviePlayer];
[moviePlayer release];
When I go to the developer forum http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/mediaplayer/reference/MPMe diaPlayback_protocol/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009268
I find this line of code in the documentation
@property(nonatomic) float currentPlaybackRate
What does it direct to in terms of knowledge about the currentPlaybackRate method. What I see is the information about being a float value...
Thx
Best regards

Thank you for taking the time to contribute. Unfortunately, you are referring to the dekstop version of iMovie - my question specifies iMovie for iPhone (and I asked in the iMovie for iOS forum).
I would find it hard to believe that Apple included a way to record slow-motion but not be able to get that footage into iMove (iOS App version).
Thanks.

I would like to know when the slow motion video recording will come in 5c. in which update u will release it.

Dear sir ,
i would like to know when the slow motion video recording will come in 5c. in which update u will release it.

I'm afraid the processor in the iPhone 5c does not support that feature. Since you can't change the hardware setup inside the phone, this will probably not be introduced at all for this model.

How do I send my slow motion videos?

How do I send my slow motion videos?

Hi. After after trying too upload from the Facebook app, I found out that the video isn´t saved as a finished video. (you can still edit it)
I used the iMovie app to save the movie as new finished movie. Open iMovie , those video, select your video, click the share button i down right corner. Push create movie (I guess, mine is in danish) play the movie or not, push the back button, change the name or not, push the share button, save the the movie. Now you have a finished movie, that can be shared as any normal movie.
Hope this helps
Maybe there are other ways I don't know

Do you want free or do you want the best, your original post said best, now you are saying free. This is a contraction, there is no such thing as best free. There is such a thing as free and such a thing as best.
Also is your focus video or photos?????

Slow Motion Videos no longer working...?

Just updated my iPhone 6 Plus to iOS 8.1. Currently all my slow motion videos no longer run in slow mo and I don't get the settings to set which portion is in slow mo. Anyone else having this problem?

...does someone really use iMovie to edit MPEG4??
all the clever ones, who complain 'project insanely huuuge!' ..
... and the very few, who edit iSight imports...
.. would be a nice feature in any x.2 upgrade:
if you try to apply an effct in a mp4 project, a little 'pop-up', telling you 'wrong format, back to start!' ...
