Output file size restrictions - HD Video for YouTube
For over a year YouTube has removed restrictions on file sizes for individuals that want to do so. The preset output in Premier Elements 11 for "Online - HD Video for YouTube 1920X1080" will not allow a video longer than 15 minutes. I need to remove this restriction and be able to produce files to upload to YouTube without file size restrictions. How can I do this?

You cannot. And, Premiere Elements 12 has the same YouTube limitations as 11.
You need to export your Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive, and then upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
At YouTube, you would need to explore the opportunities that it offers in the way of "extended times". It may require special accounts.
Without further details of your Premiere Elements project preset and the properties of your source media, I would generalize and suggest that you look at the follow choices for creating this file for upload to YouTube at the YouTube web site...
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
with Presets =
MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30
or
YouTube Widescreen HD (changing the settings under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the preset)
Please review. If you have any further questions on this, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thanks.

I recently downloaded a series of instructional videos. They are in mp4 format and rather large (~500MB on average). When I try and open them with Quicktime (default) they will not play. Are there file size restrictions? I have gone through all of the most recent software updates. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.
Try VLC Media Player. It has a reputation for playing just about anything you throw at it.

Script to encode jpg and mp3 into video for youtube?
Hi!
Sometimes I upload music and stand-up to youtube. Till now I used wine + avisynth + virtualdubmod to achieve this. Lately I realized that there is another smipler way to carry out things: ffmpeg
I was looking for some script or one-liner which makes the encoding task, but unfortunately none of those mentioned scripts worked. They are all obsolate that are mentioned by others. Some of them works, but the resulting video are denied by youtube. Do anybody know a simple one-liner or script (or maybe a handy application) which can do the transcoding the right way?You don't say if you want 1 or multiple .jpg images in the video.

Script to encode jpg and mp3 into video for youtube?
With x264/mp3 into a mp4 container? Any number of ways. Here are some examples.
ffmpeg -r 1 -i file.jpg -i file13.mp3 -c:a copy -c:v libx264 -b:v 500k ouput.mp4
ffmpeg -loop 1 -i file.jpg -c:v libx264 -t 30 -i file.mp3 -c:a copy out.mp4
ffmpeg -f image2 -i file.jpg -i audio.mp3 -c:a copy -c:v libx264 -b:v 500k output.mp4
Find out how you want to do, then if you want a script to automate it, something like
#! /usr/bin/env bash
echo "What image file?"
read image
echo "What audio file?"
read audio
echo "what video size?"
echo "Example: 640x480"
read size
echo "Output file name?"
read name
ffmpeg -f image2 -i "$image" -i "$audio" -c:a copy -c:v libx264 -b:v 500k -s "$size" "$name".mp4
exit
If you want to use multiple images, look at ffmpeg docs.

I have created a movie in Premiere Elements that uses hi-def video, still images, narration and a soundtrack. The movie is about 1 hour long. Once the movie reached its final length of about 1 hour, the output file size of the movie to be burned to Blu-ray was consistently around 11 GB. For reasons I don't understand, the output file size has abruptly grown to 26 GB. I have not added any significant footage or effects since I reached the 1 hour mark. I've only made very small tweaks to the audio balance and transitions.
The only thing that I can think of that might have caused this growth is that I went into the project settings and turned off "optimize stills." I may also have turned on "maximum bit depth." When I clicked ok, Premiere Elements told me that it had to re-render the project, which i did so. Since then, though, i have re-enabled "optimize stills" and turned off "maximize bit depth." I have also re-rendered the project again. My file size is still 26 GB.
I am running PE on a 3.06 GHZ laptop with 6 GB of ram. Running Windows 7, 64-bit.
Has anyone else run into this issue?The only thing that I can think of that might have caused this growth is that I went into the project settings and turned off "optimize stills." I may also have turned on "maximum bit depth."
File size is dependent on Bit-Rate and on Duration. If you have upped the Bit-Rate, you will see an increase in file size. Will the Project still fit on your BD? If so, and you want highest quality, the Bit-Rate and Bit-Depth can just stay higher. If space is an issue, then you can drop these down a bit.
Something else to think about and look for is has your Duration changed. This can be caused by "Orphans," out beyond where you intend your Timeline to end. This ARTICLE will give you some tips. This is easy to check.
Good luck,

Quicktime 7 file size restriction?
I have some large files shot on HDV and Imported into Final Cut Pro X. I want to use FCP 7 Pro to split them and export in a different format. The larger files 8-10GB appear in QT7 with sound only and a black screen. Smaller files 3-5GB play as expected. My computer is a MacPro 2x2.26 with 20GB RAM. These files WILL play in QTX, but I don't have the export options of QT Pro.
This leads me to think that there must be a file size restriction for QT Pro 7. Does anyone know what it is?
FYI the detaile of the files I'm trying to play: HDV 1080i50 1440x18080 (1880x1062) Millions. I have Quicktime Pro 7.6.6. My work-sround has been to split and re-compress in Compressor, but QT7 has always been the quick and dirty solution.Hi,
There is no restrictions on content server side but it will depends on your organization network latency, speed and etc.
FYI: We have checked in content around 2GB of data so for.
Thanks,

Script to "Optimize to file size" (automatically) in "Save for Web"?
Hello, all,
I'm a novice when it comes to scripts in Photoshop, but I'm really coming to the conclusion that this is the only way to automate the actions I need to do, whithout having to do it one-by-one.
Is it possible to write a Script to automatically choose the option (and settings) to "Optimize to file size" in the "Save for Web" dialog?
Is it also possible to save the file in the document's original folder, instead of a single specific folder, using "Save for Web"?
I have a really big number of different files (some .JPEG, some .PNG, some .TIFF) and I need to generate a single "reference.jpg" in each one of those original folders. It's quite easy to use whatever method to separate all those files in some lists and later open them in Photoshop in small subgroups of files.
I only have a restriction of size (60Kb) for those "reference.jpg" files, and I would like to save all of them, in each document original folder, with the best possible quality within that size constraint.
Here's my problem:
I can easily do that with a very simple action, but, that specific way, I have no control whatsoever over the resulting filesize of those "reference.jpg" files generated. Moreover, I also find the "save for web" command create a more "slim" file, allowing for better quality within my size constraint.c.pfaffenbichler wrote:
"I can’t make that out in the ScriptingListener code, but maybe someone else knows better or has a Script for the task already.
I seem to remember a thread where it was discussed to save a copy, check its size and overwrite it with different settings if it was too big … that should be possible, but may run longer."
Many, many thanks for your reply, c.pfaffenbichler! I spend the whole day (and night) yesterday learning (or rather trying to learn) about javascript, OOP, and how it should be applied in Photoshop's Scripts.
I was able to modify some snippets of code I found on the web to suit my needs (temporarily):
//SaveforWebSP.jsx
//Save a fixed width image with a size constraint in its original folder
var docRef = activeDocument;
var outputFolder = docRef.path;
NamesaveRef = new File( outputFolder + "/reference.jpg" );
var NewfileRef = new File( NamesaveRef )
// quality/size constraints
var w = 300; // new file width
var MaxSz = 61440; // max. 60Kb
var Qlt = 100; // initial quality 100
var x = 1; // decreasing step
// resize the image to the right width
docRef.resizeImage(UnitValue(w,"px"),null,100,ResampleMethod.BICUBICSHARPER);
// Perform the first SaveForWeb Operation
ExpWeb(NewfileRef, Qlt);
// Keep trying to save the file with max. Qlt, but under MaxSz
while (NewfileRef.length > MaxSz)
Qlt = Qlt - x;
NewfileRef = new File( NewfileRef );
NewfileRef.remove();
ExpWeb(NewfileRef, Qlt); // Perform a new SaveForWeb Operation, with slightly lower Qlt
if (Qlt <= 50) {
alert("The file can't be saved with the desired size AND quality.");
break // break the loop whenever the quality is as low as 50 (this shouldn't need to happen)
var FileSz = NewfileRef.length/1024;
FileSz = Math.round(FileSz);
// close the original file without saving
activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
// SaveForWeb Export, with the desired constraints and parameters
function ExpWeb(FileNm, Qlt)
var options = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb();
options.quality = Qlt; // Start with highest quality (biggest file).
options.format = SaveDocumentType.JPEG; // Save Format for the file
docRef.exportDocument(File(FileNm), ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, options);
This works, but it takes a long time and keep the HD disk "going crazy" during the time it is processing the images.
This is too bad, because the "Optimize to file size" dialog in the "Save for Web" would have been so much faster, efficient and much less "disk-intensive"... -
Encoding music video for Youtube - any advantage of using Pro (AME) over Elements?
I am in the process of encoding some music videos for youtube. I'm currently using Steve Grisetti's suggested settings from mid-2011 here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/623549
What I'm wondering is if the Adobe Media Encoder provided with Premiere Pro (or another such program with more features than the Premiere Elements 7 encoder) would provide better results? For example, I noticed those programs have options such as 256kbps audio, 2-pass, and Variable Bit Rate (which PE7 doesn't seem to have). Would that provide better quality? Of course, I need the very best audio possible.
Also, I've read from various other people's suggestions, that FLV is a better export choice than h264 since less recoding by Youtube is done- any truth to that?
Lastly, would exporting to 1080 instead of 720 (and therefore giving youtube users the option of choosing either 1080 or 720) be better for the long term, or is there any reason why 720 is suggested?
My videos are short and were edited from DVD vob files. I've very new to encoding so really appreciate the suggestions!
Thanks!I doubt that even a discerning ear to tell the original source Audio, after YouTube gets through Transcoding it for display. Also, viewers will be listening through their computer's speakers, and not a full home theater setup, where the Bit-Rate might make a slight difference. Also, most folk today, think that MP3's through ear-buds are "high fidelity."
The only plus for using AME is that once you have queued the Project up, you can do other things, while it is processing the file.
Good luck,

When i open a new document, my "width" and "lenght" add two zeros automatically to file size??? For example basic A4 size in mm is 210 00mm x 297 00mm? And i can´t do nothing about it! Why on earth?
This "error note" must have something to do about it?elppaelo,
You may try the list.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

I use Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (11.0.08) When performing "Save as" "Reduced file size pdf" Adobe processes for a while then completely stops, and has to close down. Just started doing that today.
I have Windows 8.1, and when I right click on the Windows flag (bottom left), the menu gives me a "Search" option. When I enter "%temp%", it goes to " "my username"/ appdata/temp" which is a list of file 1718 file folders. Many are empty but I did a small sample. Is that the right place to delete? I tried Windows- Disk Clean, but that did not help.

Is there size restriction on video email
Is there a size restriction on video emails
Not in the iPad that I know of, but your email provider probably has a limit on how large a message may be, as most likely will the email provider of the intended recipient.

Which "publish size" to select when sharing video for YouTube
iMovie gives you 2 size options to choose from: 480 x 360, or 640 x 480.
which one do you recommend?
of course, it would be nice for iPhone users to see it, which leads me to 480 x 360. but at that smaller size, will there be enough resolution for people to enlarge it YouTube player?
my movie was created at 4:3 standard setting.
Thanks.You can actually get the 640x480 onto an iPhone, but the big issue is file size - it'll be roughly 80% bigger than the smaller version.
Given the limits of Youtube, I generally use the smaller size. Try it and see - if you're not happy, reshare at the larger size -
What settings for exporting 1080p videos for Youtube recorded from FRAPS?
Hello,
I've tried a custom setting of mine which took an hour or so to render but came out blurry:
Video:
H264
1920 x 1080
Bitrate: 15
VBR, 1 PASS
29.97 FPS
PAL
And audio is just on default with 160 bitrate.
The quality from FRAPS is perfect but as said before when inported in Premiere and then rendered its outputted blurry and jumpy.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

I need help with exporting 720p video for youtube.
Hi everyone, I have been using Adobe premeir for almost a year now and I love it, as its very professional and powerful. I used to edit Standard with no problem, then export the full unconverted file (wmv) and run it though Windows Movie Maker to compress it (haha yeah I know its crazy.) Now that I got a camera capable of shooting HDV I want to use it. Im just wondering the following:
1.What format should I export with in Adobe Media Encoder? (Original Raw footage files from Camera are MOV formatted)
2.What should I set the Bitrate to?
3.How do I export to flash without it being to large of a file (Under 200mb's for a 5 minute video) and have it not choppy or pixelated?
4.How do I speed up exporting, how many passes should I do?
5.What overall is the best setup for youtube?
I also noticed a small glitch, and its when I export normally (full size, no compression) and run it though a compressor it cuts out all of the titles, and just flashes them for a milisecond. Its really odd. It only happens when I export in a certain format in which I cannot quite remember. Anyways.. thanks in advance for helping me. Its very appreciated.
NineLivesProductionsperform a search using the term export for web and it should throw up some ideas.
here's one for starters:

If you're using flip4mac to convert to wmv, the trial stops at 30 seconds - you need at least wmvstudio to export to wmv:
