No XDCAM preconfigurations in PP cs4....

Hi,
Sorry for my poor english...
I recently install PPCS4 TRIAL, and when i open it i have no preconfiguration XDCAM....
The drivers of the camera seems to be correctly installed, and CLIP BROWSER too...
I've read in the HELP that "Les préconfigurations de séquence HD
supplémentaires sont généralement installées dans Adobe Premiere Pro l
ors de l'installation d'une carte d'acquisition HD prenant en charge
Adobe Premiere Pro."
But i don't need and i don't have acquisition card for my XDCAM EX1.
Last thing, i'm on VISTA INTEGRAL SP1
WHAT CAN I DO ????
Par avance merci

Welcome to the forums.
It's a limitation of the trial version, it does not work with any type of MPEG files.
See: FAQ:What are the limitations of the trial version?

  • PROBLEME XDCAM HD avec PREMIERE CS4

    AU SECOURS!!!
    J'utilise les produits adobe depuis plus de 10 ans...
    J'avais la suite CS3 surtout pour premiere pro et AE...J'ai été appelé à realiser un montage vidéo à partir d'une source XDCAM HD de sony et la surprise, cs3 ne marche pas...le format n'est pas reconnu etc...
    Après des longues discussions avec vendeurs de boutiques et assistance téléphonique d'adobe je me suis laissé convaincre à passer à CS4...J'ai acheté le CS4 janvier 2010 et double surprise!!! Même problème qu'avec cs3!!!
    Discussion après discussion avec le support ADOBE (officiel!) on me dit qu'il faut peut être acheter un plug-in mainconcept...
    Cette fois avant d'acheter (271 euros), je telecharge une version d'essai du produit qui a priori est full working, seul souci ils te mettent le petit logo mainconcept en haut a gauche de ton montage...
    Bref, après installation et tout, j'arrive à importer le format XDCAM HD mais...ça ne marche pas!!! Je visualise mon importation mais dans un format bizarre totallement déformé!!!! Quelqu'un peut m'aider avant que je balance adobe et toutes ses versions merdique par la fenêtre????
    En pièce jointe un screen shot de l'image deformée...

  • Xdcam cs4 project into final cut ?

    is it possible to export xdcam work  out of cs4 into final cut pro and see all the clips and edits ive done in cs4 on final cut timeline ?

    In CS5, possibly.  In CS4, I don't think so.

  • How to use XDCAM files with Premier 4 Trial

    According to everything I have read, using XDCAM files with Premier 4 is easy. It just works. However, it doesn't with me.
    For starters, when I create a new project, there are no XDCAM presets, despite it stating there are in the various documents I have read.
    If I either try to import a file directly or copy it to the hard drive and then import it, I get:
    Error Message
    The importer reported a generic error
    Not very helpful.
    This is a trial version of Premier to try to establish if this product is any good. I did try to contact Adobe but they say they don't support trial users. Not very helpful. Since Adobe are obviously not very interested in selling their products, is there anyone else out there whop can answer this or should I just use Final Cut Pro instead (well if Adobe are not interested in helping a potential customer, what chance is there of being helpful once they have your money???)

    As far as I am concerned, editing XDCAM EX files with CS4 - I have yet to edit XDCAM (HD) files - is as easy as editing DV(CAM) material on my i7 Extreme machine with Vista Ultimate and 12 Gig of RAM.
    I am also pleased to report that the audio bug that beset CS3 when editing XDCAM EX files namely, audio cutting out randomly, is a thing of the past.
    The whole CS4 Suite (including Premiere) has been running very smoothly on my (beefy) machine.

  • Can no longer import mp4 (XDCAM) footage into CS4

    Hopefully somebody will be able to help me with this!
    I am trying to import some Sony EX1 (mp4) footage into Premiere CS4, but am getting the following error message:
    “file import failure: Error message – the importer reported a generic error”
    I have done this process on many occasions over the last year or so and experienced no problems whatsover.
    But for some reason I am no longer able to import the mp4 files...or even access these file types in historic projects!
    I have checked the footage in the Sony clip browser in it seems fine, and plays fine when opened with a VLC player, so am a bit stumped to what the problem could be.
    (For info, I am using a PC with 8gb RAM and a Quadro CX. I did have After Effects installed a month ago back and switched to VISTA. All Adobe updates have been installed, and I have sufficient memory)
    Thanks in advance for any pointers or assistance

    Of course using Premiere CS3 I have the problem of the audio constantly cutting out on the XDCAM MP4 files, so I really could do with a solution to this problem in CS4 asap - can anyone else help?
    It is definitely a new problem for me, which almost certainly revolves around the impoter process. It did not affect my editing until 2-3 months ago but suddenly now renders CS4 Premiere more or less useless, on both on my laptop and my main PC.
    It is possible that the problem only affects projects where one of the XDCAM files is very long and/or was originally saved across two separate cards at the time of recording. In which case it may not be a new problem, simply one I had not encountered before because I'd notg used any such long files.

  • Media Encoder CS4 hangs when opening large XDCAM HD MXF files

    I am having a problem with Media Encoder CS4 hanging consistently when importing large (18GB) XDCAM HD (25mbps, MPE-2 HD) MXF files.  Smaller files are not a problem.  This is on a soupped up system, HP XW8600 Workstation / Windows Vista Pro.  The same files work fine in After Effect CS4.
    Any idea what could cause this?
    Thanks.
    T.

    Yes, I did.  Thanks for the tip though.

  • XDCAM EX support not present on new CS4 install

    Hello All,
    I recently had to reinstall my MAC OSX and completely reformat my hard drive.
    So I reinstalled Premiere CS4 and now none of the new codec support is there, even with the latest updates.
    AVCHD, XDCAM, RED, all gone from the list of presets, and I can't import any of those file types into Premiere AT ALL!
    The only available presets are AVC-Intra, DV, DVCPRO, and Mobile Devices.
    I'm using a:
    Mac Pro 8-core 2.8Ghz
    6GB RAM
    Running on Snow Leopard
    Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 w/ latest updates
    Anyone have this problem or know how to get back all the latest formats support?
    Thanks
    Foster

    I'm having the same issue. I upgraded to CS4 and XDCAM EX options are no longer available as project options???
    I'm running on Windows XP with a Matrox Axio LE.
    Cheers

  • Too much XDCAM EX clips on Premiere CS4

    Hi,
    I've problems working with XDCAM EX clips.
    I am working with a timeline 1080i 50i XDCAM EX (SP) and when the project is over a hundred clips,
    Premier Pro CS4 crashes every time I try to edit a clip.
    What's the matter?
    The configuration of my PC is as follows:
    Motherboard: Asus P6T
    CPU: Intel Core i7 CPU 920 @2.67GHz
    Grapicboard: Ati Radeon HD 5700  1Gb video RAM
    RAM: 12Gb
    HardDisk
    OS disk: 300Gb SataII
    Project Disk: 2 Disk Raid 0
    Scratch Disk: 2 Disk Raid 0
    Software: Windows 7 Professional 64bit
    Editing: Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1
    Thanks

    So here is what I did.   I have a JVC hm700 but I use the sony clip browser.  When recording longer XDCAM EX footage the camera breaks it up into smaller clips (in the BVAP/clips/clipname_01... clipname_02 ext).  When you import them into premiere it appears to be one clip.
    What I did was take all of the mp4s out of their folders and created an orphan folder. 
    Then I opened up sony clip browser and imported the files into a new folder.
    When it imports the files it creates new xml data and my 1:20:00 clip is now 7 clips. 
    When I import them into premier they import as 7 clips instead of one... they conform, a clip thumbnail appears....AND they PLAY IN THE TIMELINE!!! 
    Just line them up and they play seemlessly
    It is a pain and a long process... especially on a 4 camera shoot that lasted 2 hrs.

  • Premiere CS4 with XDCAM files in MOV wrapper

    Hi. I am using a JVC HM700 camera. This camera shoots in 35 mbit XDCAM EX format.  The XDCAM footage is "wrapped" in a MOV file . To have an MP4 (Sony standard wrapper) I need to plug an SxS recorder on the back that activates the codc/wrapper option in the camera's menu. Also Sony standard files come with a single folder for every clip (holds metadata) . For these two reasons I really prefer to work with the MOV wrapper. Quality is exactly the same (it's an XDCAM EX) but it's all much easier. Now.. while Final Cut can edit realtime these clips (actually they worked with JVC in developing the camera) I cannot do the same in Premiere. Premiere will work in realtime with MP4 wrapped XDCAM but not with MOV wrapped XDCAM. in fact I get the "yellow line" above my footage in the timeline and playback jitters... So my question... Is Adobe going to support MOV wrapped XDCAM EX 35 Mbit files in the future? Or is there some plugin around? Thanks, Marcello

    Marcello,
    Check out this thread for some more information and a link to a program that will losslessly rewrap the XDCAM stream from an MOV to an MPG. Here's the website translated via Google (original is in German).
    I just tested it out on an HM700 clip I downloaded, and the MPG imports into Premiere perfectly; plays back in an XDCAM EX sequence preset without a yellow or red line.
    I doubt Adobe will support the MOV-wrapped files from this camera; as you mentioned, it was specifically developed with Apple to work with FCP. I think the odds of Adobe offering MOV support for this camera are extremely slim. But hey--you never know...

  • Premiere CS4 crashes with MXF XDCAM files

    I have MXF files coming from MP4 XDCAM EX files (converted with Sony EX Browser) and MOV XDCAM EX files (converted with Convergent Design File Converter) both from JVC HM700. Premiere imports all files and if I have a simple timeline it works fine. As soon as the timeline gets longer Premiere stucks and eventually crashes.
    Any idea?

    I use Clip Browser to convert footage done in MP4 but also Convergent Design's File Converter 1.3 to convert footage shot in MOV.
    in Premiere on MAC both MXFs work fine is just that in long (over 15-20 minutes) projects and where there are 2 levels of timeline (I'm sincing the 2cameras) or when I do a simple scale effect (to see the level underneath) everything stucks, get very slow and eventually crashes.
    Actually a single MXF file plays better than a MOV XDCAM file and almost the same than a MP4 XDCAM file.. but as I said.. when it gets to handle many together.. things don't work so good anymore

  • XDCAM SD PDW530p MXF files unable to import into Premiere CS4

    Hey guys,
    New to the XDCAM world...I'm trying to load in the mxf files using the import function but I get an error 'Codec missing or unavailable'. Can anyone shed some light on this? While i'm here the footage is shot in 720 x 576 @ 50MB...what project option should i select?
    Cheers.

    I am indeed referring to our PDW530p camera which is a disc-based (PDF23a Sony, bluray-like, discs) camera that saves every shot in a MXF file, no matter what format is used. I probably made it more confusing then necessary. Basically you can shoot to DVCAM and that is a format Premiere can natively import. IMX50, which is XDCAM as far as I am told, can not be imported by premiere natively.
    @colin: we tried this "trick" (I am now in doubt if we renamed to .avi or to .mpg, it was a while back) on a machine that has a RT.X2 which does not support IMX50 and we NEEDED to be able to either convert or edit the clips. We have two systems here, one with the Axio and one with the RT.X2 (I know, I know :( ). We eventually ended up going to the Axio system, imported the footage in CS3, converted it to something premiere natively does support, transported that over the network to the other machine and loaded it in.
    But we WERE able to get the clips in premiere on the RT.X2 system by renaming the clips. We just did not trust it. Feel free to try it if you wish. :)
    On the Axio machine you can indeed playback IMX50 recored clips/footage in any program thanks to the hardware, drivers and codecs (it is a joined accomplishment *cough*) Matrox provides for their boards.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 does not import EX1 files longer than 1 hour

    I had to record a long speech and used a Sony XDCAM HD EX1 camera with a 32 Gb and a 16 Gb SXS cards. The speaker paused after 1h 26 min. I stopped the recording and waited until the green light that allows recording the segment came on. Later I recored smaller segments.
    I copied all the recorded files to the PC hard disk ( Intel Quad Core 2.4 Ghz with 3.25 GB RAM with XP Proofessional SP3).
    I used Sony Clip browser to watch the clips and all of them were perfect. Then I opened premiere Pro CS4 4.21 and I wanted to import this 27 GB file. In the media browser appeared only one mp4 file. All the short ones where imported normally but the big one freezed premiere and the only way to close premiere was with the windows task manager.
    I checked again in the Sony XDCAM clip browser version 2.6 and you can see it perfectly. There was a detail, though: in the lower part of the preview window I saw 6 marks. When I checked the file in the disk, I found that the 27 Gb file was separated in 7 parts. Each of them was 3.51 Gb and the last one 2.5 Gb. That means that the file was cut in pieces that were less than 4Gb supposed max file lenght.
    I tried many ways to import and no result. The I used the "export " of the sony clip browser. There is one choice that is "MXF for XDCAM HD". When I chose this item another panel appeared and showed a 1440 X 180 59.94i 25Mbps choice. I took it and after some time it created the 27 Gb file that I could import it normally with 4 audio tracks. But there is a drawback a "media concept" logo appeared to remeber to "buy" the program.
    Anyhow, the question is: How can I import to Premiere CS4 a MP4 file created by a Sony EX1 HD camera whose lenght is more that 1 hour long ?
    Thanks
    Wolfgang

    I think  is the contrary because the clip browser copies all the foleders needed. I got this opinion from another forum that copies into Final Cut:
    "My workflow is to create a hard drive folder for the project, then use Clip Browser to import the clips from the card. I review the clips, labelling them, adding logging notes, setting the status and putting in essence marks as needed (the number of characters available for the essence mark description is fairly limited). I then open FCP, create and save a new project then call up XDCAM Transfer. I select the project folder and it will pull in all the clips. I then filter for OK status, occasionally create subclips then import. The clips come over to the bin, with their names and with the essence marks converted to markers. Obviously there are backups taken - I've not mentioned them."

  • Odd, Green video in Adobe Premiere CS4?

    Hi! This has been happening to me a lot lately, and I really need a fix!
    When editing my projects, I will have imported a lot of video files.
    Before dragging those files into my timeline, I like to preview them.
    However, sometimes, the video does not play.  The sound does, but all I see in the preview are random frames from other video files that I have imported. (Ex. Say I preview a video of a dog barking, which works.  Then, I try to watch a video of a cat meowing.  I hear the cat perfectly, but random frames from the dog video are all I see in the preview area.)
    Random videos also turn green when previewd.  I will not be able to hear them, like last time, but the whole frame is green and I will not be able to see them. On the timeline they are black.
    I usually solve this problem by restarting, but I have to get this project done!
    I recently imported a WAV file and an mp3 file into my project. ***The video files are in MP4 video format.

    Hi Everyone,
    Thanks so much for the initial response to my question - I really appreciate it!  Everyone in this forum is EXTREMELY helpful, and I hope I can find a solution.  I have taken your advice and am currently going through all of the troubleshooting stages listed in the above, but, have not yet had any luck thus far.  I figured I would post here, while I continue to troubleshoot on my end.
    Specific Problem:
    I have several .mp4 video files in my project timeline that I captured via a Hauppauge HD PVR capture card.  When I load the project, only some of the videos do not load properly.  The thumbnail photos for the videos that don't load properly are simply green, and when I play it, only the audio from the clip properly plays.  The video is either just a green screen, or it is a black screen with random still images from OTHER video files I have in the timeline.  When I restart the computer, and re-open the project, the affected video files are different every time.  I have about 40 or so different clips in this project, and the ones that seem to get affected by this problem are the ones that are last to load.
    Also, once the project is loaded, and I see that some of my video files are affected by this problem, the computer seems to really lag, and Premiere Pro has trouble operating.  Premiere Pro often gets the (Program Not Responding) message, and I have to force close it, and restart my computer, to ensure a fresh start.
    Also, when this PP is having its problems, my whole computer slows down.  I have a widget on the desktop that shows CPU and RAM usage.  When PP is having its problems, the RAM meter goes up to 95 - 100%.
    What I've Learned So Far:
    I downloaded and ran the Sherlock Codec Detector and the Gspot Codec program, and have determined that my computer is missing the following codecs:
    Broken Codecs
      "MainConcept (Adobe2) AAC Decoder"
         FileName       = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4\ad2daac.ax"
      "MainConcept (Adobe2) H.264/AVC Decoder"
         FileName       = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4\ad2dsh264.ax"
      "MainConcept (Adobe2) H.264/AVC Video Encoder"
         FileName       = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4\ad2evh264.ax"
      "MainConcept (Adobe2) MPEG Audio Encoder"
         FileName       = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4\ad2mceampeg.ax"
      "MainConcept (Adobe2) MPEG Video Encoder"
         FileName       = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4\ad2mcevmpeg.ax"
    When I click on each of the codecs, I get the following error message: "The driver file for this codec was not found. This probably means the codec was not unistalled properly".
    In Gspot, I have similar results, and it says the file is missing for these codecs.
    Do you guys think this is the problem?  If so, would it be a simple fix as to just download the codecs I am missing?

  • Adobe Media Encoder exports different video than what appears in CS4 timeline

    I'm using Premiere CS4 to edit a short skiing video.  All shots were taken using a GoPro @ 60fps, 720p.  All of the clips were converted into slow motion by using "Interpret Footage" and setting the frame rate to 24.  I used the sequence preset "AVCHD 720p 24", and editing seemed to work fine.  The video played smoothly and correctly.  However, after exporting in Adobe media encoder, the video was far different than what I previewed in the timeline.  It seems as though each clip shows up at the correct time, but it disregarded any trimming I did to the clips and each one is played from the very beginning.  Also, each clip plays extremely slowly, and there is signifigant ghosting (frame blending issue?).  I can also see that the preview window that shows up while I set the export settings displays the incorrect video as well.  However, if i change it from "source" to "output", it displays it correctly.  I tried exporting using H.264 720 24p and the youtube HD widescreen preset, both of which failed.  I am somewhat new to HD video, but I cannot seem to come up with any reason why my video will not export correctly.  Any thoughts?

  • What's a good HD camera to use with Premiere Pro CS4

    I've used Premiere Pro CS4 for a while now and most of the time I don't have any problems, but recently, I've been buying HD cameras, shooting some AVCHD and then having a hell of a time getting them to play nice with Premiere Pro (or WMindows Media Player... or Quicktime... or anything but their crappy bundled software that won't let me edit or anything). My girlfriend says I should give up and buy a Mac and use FCP, but I like Premiere Pro. I'm about to take another camera back to Best Buy and I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion for the easiest camera to use with Premiere Pro.
    In case you're wondering, I've bought a Canon Vixia HF10 and a Samsung HMX-H100 so far and both had every issue I can think of from codec incompatibility to aspect ratios changing to A/V sync being lost to all-out-I-don't-know-WTF-just-happend-errors. I just want a camera that's going to give me a file I can drop straight into Premiere.

    Unless you want a new computer, forget about AVCHD. It requires too much muscle to edit comfortably on anything but the fastest computer.
    What camera is nice, depends on your budget. Formats that are easy to edit are HDV, DVCProHD (P2) and XDCAM. In the consumer range you could look at the Canon HV40 or XH-A1s, in the prosumer range look at the Panasonic AG-HPX170, Canon XH-H1s, JVC GY-ND250 or Sony HVR Z5 or Z7 and all Sony XDCAM cameras, especially the EX1 and EX3. In the professional range look at the Sony PDW-F355 or upward.

Maybe you are looking for
