No more swf import with Premiere Pro CC 7.1 ?

Hello,
After upgrading Premiere Pro CC to 7.1 I am not able to import swf files, and previous projet with swf files consider them as offline. Is it just a bug with my install or did this feature has been avoided ?
Thanks for your help,
Best Regards,
Sébastien

Hello,
Thank you for your help and all your answers. It was very helpufull to import SWF directly inside Premiere Pro and to add other video elements around the SWF in the timeline. SWF is a small file, it is very fast to export SWF in Flash, and so to update and Premiere Pro timeline if we need some change in the SWF animation.
I am using this workflow for cartoon for children. My graphic designer for this cartoon is only able to use Flash, and it is a good way beacause we are also able to create a SWF export in an html page. Video Export in Flash is really bad, for example it is unable to export embeded clips so you have to only use graphic symbol and never clip symbols (but same problems if you import SWF in Premiere Pro or After Effects). Flash video export is also bad compared to presets used in Adobe Media Encoder Premiere Pro and After Effects.
So, because now Premiere Pro CC 7.1 is not able to import SWF, the best way to export SWF to video for me:
1. Import SWF in After Effects, create a composition
2. Export the composition with Adobe Media Encoder, for example H264 around 25Mb/s like AVCHD
3. Import these videos files in Premiere Pro and replace our SWF with the video files instead.
Best Regards,
Sébastien

I am unable to import a SWF file in Premiere Pro

Please indicate how to import an SWF file into Premiere Pro. I tried to import as an movie, but it would not work.

Hello,
As of Adobe Premiere Pro 7.1, you cannot import FLV files directly into Adobe Premiere Pro. While working with FLV footage, use Adobe Media Encoder to import the FLV files and transcode the FLV files into a supported file type. For example, use the H.264 format.
After Effects and Adobe Media Encoder still support the import of FLV files.
FLV file export is still available within Adobe Premiere Pro.

Can't import MTS with Premiere Pro CC (2014)

I have the problem with Premiere Pro CC (2014) and Media Encoder CC (2014) ! "Compression of media is not supported" (or something like that, it's in german...)
In After Effects CC (2014) and Prelude CC (2014) there is no problem importing these files.
MTS from a Panasonic HC-V550, files from a AVCHD folder structure, 1080p 50 fps.
I did already a project with theses file in Premiere Pro CC a few month ago!

Hi Das Modular,
Move the media to another directory, drive, or merely change the name of the folder where your media resides. You should be able to import the files after that.
Thanks,
Kevin

Is there any way to create a file compatible with Premiere Pro

Is there any way to create a file in Premiere elements that is compatible with Premiere Pro and that can be used in Premiere Pro

Consternation
The important information that I do not see mentioned nor offered by you.
1.What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system it is running? What version of Premiere Pro do you want to use?
The Premiere Pro Import Supported Formats seem to indicate that it will accept the Premiere Elements project.prel (project file) on Windows Only.
Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Supported file formats
This may or may not be possible depending on damaged projects or outdated elements.
2. If you want to export your Premiere Elements Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive and subsequently import that into your Premiere Pro version, that "should" work. You would go to the Premiere Elements Publish+Share/Computer/ and make a selection based on what the Premiere Pro Import Supported file formats are and what you need. I can help you with that. But, details first.
But, just a "beware"...when you get to Premiere Elements 11 or 12 (if that is the version involved) Publish+Share/Computer/ there are several categories, but all you see is Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. The rest of the list that includes AVI and QuickTime which both need to be scrolled to all of the time to see them, not just sometimes, with the thin scroll bar to the right of the list of choices. You can export files
with AVI file extension, under Publish+Share/Computer/AVI
with MOV file extension, under Publish + Share/Computer/QuickTime
And, if you do not have QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements, you are not going to have presets for the QuickTime export.
Remember, there is more to an export than just its file extension. Know your other export properties as well.
In many cases, you can customize the export settings to suit your requirements.
Problems will exist if you are trying to go from Premiere Elements Windows to Premiere Pro Mac or vice versa.
I would be glad for the opportunity to help you with this issue, but details are needed.
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thanks.

How do I get audio back on single clip that loses audio when imported into Premiere Pro CC?

I've got one clip out of many that for some reason won't play any audio when imported into Premiere Pro. I am new to Premiere Pro so am hoping it's something stupid I've done, but this is a problem with just a single clip exported the same way as all my others, the original audio is loud (not quiet) and none of the FAQ issues seem to apply (ie I haven't muted the audio or anything stupid like that)
The clip was exported from Plural Eyes into a "master" Premiere Pro project where the audio is fine. I exported it as a short MP4 clip and if I play the clip in Windows Media Player the audio is there loud and clear.
But when I import the clip into a fresh Preimiere Pro CC project this clip appears with just the "film strip" icon on the far left in the Timeline panel, unlike other clips which have an icon that shows "film strip" in the background and "audio wave" in the foreground.
I'm hitting so many glitches with the CC editions of Premiere Pro and After Effects which have annoying inconsistencies between them I'm tempted to just go back to Sony Vegas Pro (single program, no hassle) but hoping most of these issues are down to "newbie incompetence". Very hard to understand why this one clip out of many should be giving me this specific problem though. Any ideas?

I'm getting so many weird results. Most go away by simply closing the project and re-opening and I only have 6GB memory but even so, I'm disappointed by what I thought was supposed to be more "world class" video editing software than Sony Vegas Pro which I found to be a lot more stable. Also struggling with differences between Premiere and After Effects. Every time I want to do something in Pro I seem to need to go to After Effects and vice-versa. After Effects lets me do more of what I could "just do" in Vegas Pro timeline, but it's hideous for lining up audio and having to render anything in RAM to even get a clue as to what a change has done. Need to add Audition to the long list as well I suspect. Fun times!

Problems with Premiere Pro 2.0: sound lost after clip pasting

To integrate small projects to one bigger Project, it used to work well with Premiere Pro 1.5 in the following way: import small projects into the main sequence of the new project and, in parallel, copy the clips from the timeline of the small projects and past them into the timeline of the new project. However, I am encountering the following problems while trying to do the same thing with Premiere Pro 2.0:
·        Video and sound of every pasted clip becomes unlinked.
·        Although the sound was there (also shows in the wave view) right after the pasting and it can be rendered, but the audio Information gets lost as soon as I exit the new project (saved beforehand). If I re-open this new project, although the timeline shows all the pasted sound clips, but there is information in them - no sound (the wave views show only straight lines).
·        As well, some of the video and audio effect settings get lost (e.g. cross fading), but the effects such as brightness and contrast settings always remain.
·        At least one thing seems to be sure: the imported files themselves are ok. Newly created clips in the timeline from those imported files (dragged into the timeline) are fine - no information lost.
All tips are great helps. Thanks in advance.

I got it!
Though not described in the English HELP, but in the German HELP: I have to press the Shift and T Keys. It works in my case with the following steps:
1.     Mark the corresponding audio and video tracks
2.     Put CTI over the clip
3.     Press shift + T
4.     Double click the clip
5.     Eventually I have to repeat and press the keys shift +T again.
Thanks a lot once more for all of the hints and the detailed explanations. It is indeed a great help. I really appreciate it very much.

Adobe Story Script integration with Premiere Pro Doesnt allow me to embed the script

Goal: Embed an Adobe Story Script into Premiere Pro. (mac)
Method: I have a video with a verbatim transcript.
I inport the transcript into Adobe Story and save it in the proper Adobe Story File extension (.astx)
I save it to the Adobe cloud and I have also exported it to my desktop.
I launch Premiere Pro and import the video that I have transcribed.
The I try one of 3 ways to get the script to the video in PP.
The first steps are the same as below:
I go to Adobe Story and log in from within PP.
I locate the file.
I add a Scene.
I make sure the scene is the same as it is within PP
then...
1.
I drag and drop it onto the Movie file.
Nothing appears within the Embed Adobe Story Script Meta Data field.
2.
I click on Analyze and the Embed Adobe Story Script script checkbox remains greyed out (Unable to select it)
If I click Analyze then PP will analyze the script (does a decent job) but this is NOT what I want. I want to attach the verbatim script to the video which is why I have it transcribed.
3.
Right click on the movie file within PP and the contextual menu allows me to attach a script.
I locate my downloaded .astx file on my Mac and select it.
Still nothing appears within the Embed Adobe Story Metadata field.
I have worked with Anand from support who suggested I post this question here.
I dont know if there are only certain Adobe templates for which this will work (ie TV script, Film etc)
He suggested that this would most likely work only for the .mov file formats, but then discovered that it should work even for .mp4 files.
In any case - if anyone has any thoughts, ideas, or has experience with this It would be greatly appreciated.
Jon

Maximum file size for importing into Premiere Pro CS6

Hi,
I'm considering recording raw video, no compression at 720p, 30 fps for 20-30 min. This woudl result in a file that is close to 80 Gbytes. I'm wondering what the maximum file size for importing into premiere Pro is and if I need to split this file up into smaller pieces. Any recommendations on how I may deal with uncompressed raw video that is pretty long in length?
Thanks,
Serena

There is bound to be some limit somewhere in the program, but you should be well below that. The biggest issue might be whether your computer is up to the task of handling it. If you will post your computer specs., someone will give you comments on that aspect.
Good luck,

QuickTime 10.1 Screen Recordings Blurry Once Imported into Premiere Pro CS6

I am doing screen recordings with QuickTime 10.1 that appear to be of good quality until I import into Premiere Pro CS6 and then they display and export very poorly and very blurry to the point that you can't read the text on the page. Any suggestions to fix this problem?

Hi Kristine,
Make sure that the clips are positioned on the X,Y axis as whole integers, not integers + decimal points. See if that works for you.
Thanks,

Can animated titles created in Titlemotion imported into Premiere Pro CS3?

Hi,
We are using Titlemotion Software(Standalone Version)for creating animated titles.
We would want to use these animations into Premiere Pro CS3.
We can save the animations made in Titlemotion as
1) an FX-script,
2) a targa sequence &
3) a '.VIA' format.
'VIA' files created in Titlemotion do not get imported into Premiere Pro CS3, Premiere Pro informs that they are not supported.
Is there any way to import a .VIA file into Premiere Pro CS3?
OR
Is there any work-around wherein animations created in Titlemotion Pro could be taken into Premiere Pro CS3?

Save as a targa sequence with an alpha channel.

Campatible with Premiere Pro?

I thought this was compatible with premiere pro? My recordings don't show up and aren't compatible?

You don't know how this product works. Forget Save As.
With Captivate you have to publish to an output format. There are several to choose from, but the one you want is found under Media on the Publish dialog. Use the drop down menu to select MP4. That will publish the project as an MP4 video. Then you can import your video into Premier Pro to edit or whatever.

Problem with Premiere Pro CS5 project files bloating

Has anyone had the same problem that we're experiencing? - we have Production Premium CS5 installed on a machine with Win 7 Pro x64. We have three separate edits all of which are experiencing bloating of the .prproj project file. Often this bloating seems to occur when no importing of assets has occured, just changes in the edits. A project which started at 5mb has bloated to 1.5GB and we can no longer save it. Another project has bloated to 200mb and continues to grow in size. We have not brought in any weird assets, although we are using hi-def footage.
We upgrade from CS3 and never had this problem using Premiere CS3.
We can't fix the problem by 'remove unused footage' as this doesn't reduce the project size, although it does remove the unused footage.
We can't fix it by importing the project into a new clean project as the problem and huge file size just comes with
We can't fix it by using the project manager to collect up the project as it requires to save before collecting and the problem files can't be saved.
A couple of points to note - these projects were originally on Premiere CS3 and were upgraded to CS5. The footage is either Sony EX3 or Canon 5D - both HD.
The machine it's running on has 8gb of RAM.
Currently the projects I'm working on are gradually grinding to a hold with no way to make the files usable again.
Any suggestions are greatfully recieved as I'm at a loss. I've reported this to Adobe, and will report back if I get anything useful.
thanks.

TClark,
I'm shocked that you are having the same problem on a mac. This seems to suggest a problem that could be really widespread. You've also beaten my 1.5GB file bloat size.
What the hell is going on with Premiere Pro? I'm surprised to have heard nothing from Adobe either via my support request or on this forum, save for Jeremys useful work around, considering how serious an issue this is.
I've had to break all the projects I'm working on which have multiple timelines in each project into a new seperate project per timeline in order to reduce the file bloat problem and reduce the risk of me loosing all my work in one go on a bloated file.
Adobe - we could do with some help here. It's frustrating to have spent so much money on licences for this software only to have virtually non-existant help when a serious flaw in the software manifests itself.

Yeah...it's really a bummer that no one is acknowledging it. It's pretty serious!
I hope Dennis jumps in soon!

XF100 audio with Premiere Pro CC

With Premiere Pro CS 5.5 and 6, my 2 stereo audio channels from my XF100 where imported as 2 differents stereo tracks on my timeline. Now with CC, I only have one stereo track, chanel 1 mono on the left and channel 2 mono on the right in my timeline. I use the Canon XF mpeg2 preset for my timeline as usual.
Can I have my two distinct stereo channels?

Yes I can do it with "modify" > "audio channels" in the contextual menu, but it won't help in the preference because the files are not a stereo media, they are just two seperate audio streams. So anyway, I can have it the way I want. I just don't like the new workflow because stereophony and channels shoud not be seen as the same thing. Thanks for your help!

Why do the MP4 files that I import to Premiere Pro CC have unsynced audio? (Resolved)

I have identified and resolved.the issue. There is a bug with how Premeire Pro handles importing videos with variable frame rate.
Community Memeber Walter.Johnson found a work-around at the bottum of this post, which also has the identification and submission of the bug itself:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1110005?start=40&tstart=0
I had to convert the video with "constant framerate" selected in handbrake. I'm believe the ffmpeg CLI equivilant switch is "-cfr" but I have not tested to be sure.
I can now import videos with synced audio!
I have recorded several hours of footage using a program called XSplit (a screen recording tool).
The files are recorded in a FLV format and I then convert them to MP4 as premiere pro cant read then in FLV.
In a MP4 format I can import the files into Premiere Pro CC and the video looks perfect, but the audio is unsynced. It is also unsynced in non-linear way so it is not something that I can simply unlink and adjust to compensate as it would have to be done manually every minute.
If I import these same MP4s into other video editing programs they import perfectly fine and have no audio sync issues what-so-ever. I only experience this issue in Premeire Pro CC. I can even tested these videos in 6 different media players and they play perfecly fine.
If I convert the files to AVI using ffmpeg or ffmpeg assisted tools it will not import into Premiere Pro CC and gives a "unsupported format or damaged file" error. Once again, this avi can be played and edited in several other programs no problem.
Here are the details about one of these files:
VIdeo Codec: H.264/MPEG-4 AVC
Video: 1280x720
Audio Codec: mp4a: MPEG-4 ACC LC
Audio: 44100hz 63 kb/s tot , stereo (2/0)
Anyone have any ideas on why the audio is becomming de-synced in Premiere Pro CC only?

I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
Kindly inform us if it works.
Thank you all.
Cheers.

Phantom Flex footage dark when imported to Premiere Pro

Hi everyone (and hopefully Adobe Staff, also),
I am aware this has been posted before, though from what I can see no one, Adobe Staff or users, have found a solution. I am hoping we can change that!
I recently directed a Music video that was shot on the Phantom Flex. Everything went smoothly and after dropping the 3TB of footage via Seance (program by gluetools for Mac) I am now faced with a problem. While all the footage looks fine in Seance and on the Finder; when imported to Premiere Pro (CC v8.1, Caravan (latest update currently) it goes very dark, blue and flat. Premiere Pro is interpreting the colour/luma of the footage wrong.
Adobe states that Premiere Pro supports Phantom Flex .cine files but it seems that while you can edit with them, the colour/luma is interpreted incorrectly. Many other people also seem to have this problem.
These images below are all screenshots from Macbook Pros, one with ‘Glue Tools Phantom Cine Flex 4K’ installed (the gear house’s laptop) and one without (mine).
I need to find a way to get Premiere Pro to interpret the colour/luma properly in Premiere Pro to edit the project, it seems the Glue Tools plugin is not the solution I was hoping for, as some people have suggested elsewhere.
Is there a way to fix this within Premiere Pro or a plugin etc?
Has anyone successfully edited Phantom Flex footage in Premiere Pro?
Any help would be extremely helpful as I am really stuck here.
Thankyou so much.
Here is an example with some footage shot by the crew before me (still left on one of the cards), as you can see it is not just my footage that isn't working in Premiere Pro.
Thankyou,
Jack

It looks to me like Seance (and Finder) are applying a LUT to the footage, whereas PP is showing you the flat image as it was actually recorded, which is normally the desired result. Was there a LUT applied in the camera viewfinder or on-set monitor, something you might also apply in PP?
