PE8 - Monitor Quality when working with MPEG2 files?

Hi,
I'm still looking into whether to buy premiere or not and have a few questions which may all be related:
- My original MPEG2 file is 704 x 576, Premiere exports as 720 x576. Are there really two different standards for widescreen?
- My original video is nice and clear, it's not so wonderful in the PE8 monitor. My short 1 minute MPEG2 did finish it's background rendering and has a green line over the clip. Why is this not the same quality? (I assume it's not due to it being the trial version, which has a big banner across the middle to prevent it being ripped off).
- Premiere reports "Display performance will be poor due to incorrectly operating card or driver", although I've read that is isn't necessarily a problem.
System Spec:
- Intel i7 2.8ghz 860 Quad core, Nvidia GT220 graphics card with 1GB memory, 4gb memory
- Windows 7 pro 64 bit (Windows expeirence index is 6.5 out of 7.5)
- latest video driver updated to 8.17.11.9675 (21/02/2010)
- Currently running on PE8 Trial.
- System disk: 37gb free (Intel X25-M solid state 80gb SATA2 disk), project/cache drive: 884gb free (SEAGATE 1.5TB Barracuda 7200RPM)

Thanks for the feedback.
I had been busy reading Adobes help and search the net and found an answer although I can't get it to work. I'll post another topic with a more relevent heading. You can change the pixel aspect ratio !
Adobe's help:

Some interesting info on aspect ratios:

It's all in interpretation rules.txt, although my rule doesn't currently work:
# PAL 704x576 to standard DV 720 width (Panasonic SD camera)
704, 576, *, *, * = 768/720, *, *, *

Very slow responce when working with Office file on DFS-Share

Very slow responce when working with Office file on DFS-Share
We have implemented the following configuration
Domain level Windows 2000. Two member servers with Windows Server 2008 R2, sharing the same DFS namespace with, at the moment, one folder target called Home.
Users complaining that the access to different MS Office files is very slow. Even creating a new MS Word document using right click context menu takes up to 4 minutes to open. Saving, for example, one singe Excel sheet takes also few minutes.
Tested with both, MS Office 2007 and MS Office 2010. Makes no difference. When using Office 2010 you can see the message like contacting:
\\DomainName\Root\Home\UserName. Other files like TXT, JPG or PDF are not affected.
What makes the thing really weird is the fact, that the behavior described above can absolutely change after client machine being rebooted, suddenly everything becomes very fast and this condition can revert back again just after the next
reboot.
Considerations until now:
1. This has nothing to do with the file size. Even tiny files are affected.
2. AD Sites are configured correctly and the client workstations see themselves in the correct sites.
3. This is not an Office issue. If I map my folder target not as DFS, but directly as shared network drive
\\ServerName\Root\Home\UserName , everything functions as expected
What makes me suspicious: when using f.e. TCPView to monitor connections, I can see, that each time I make any operation on an office file, there will be a connection established to one of the domain controllers, sometimes to remote ones,
located in other countries. But on the other side, even if the connection is established to the nearest DC, operations are still very very slow!
Just forget to say. All clients are Windows 7
Thanks to all who respond.

Dear all,
sorry for the delayed reply. The problem has been solved now and since September 19<sup>th</sup>. everything is functioning as expected.
What was done:
Deleted replication targets excepting the initial ones
Carefully recreated folder targets
Deleted and recreated replication groups
Disabled SNP features on both namespace servers
Created EnableTCPA registry entry
Checked that the following Updates are installed
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2688074

Unexpected problem: uncaught exception when working with audio files in Soundtrack Pro

Hey,
Whenever I double click an audio file in the timeline to work on it, I end up getting the Error message: "Unexpected problem: uncaught exception" and Soundtrack Pro eventually crashes. Also, this happens when I try to work with audio files in the file editor. I have Leopard and am using Logic Studio 8. Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks
Matt

Didnt know how to remove the original clip from the STP arrange window - or whatever it's called in STPro. So I could go no further in my perverse science experiment.
It also appeared that I could only import an aif but not a wav?
I gave up on STPro and did what I needed to do in Logic, which I use regularly.
Thank you for folowing up on this.
PS. I used to use an old PowerPC version (1.0.3) of STPro and loved the way it visually showed the change in the waveform when you added each efffect. It appears that the new version (3.0.1) does not allow you to do this anymore? You can render or flatten the effects to see the final waveform, but then you are dead in the water and cant make changes?
Im such a newbie at STPro that I am probably not using it right?

Disable updating of the menu widget when working with Muse file?

First of all thank you Adobe for creating Muse - I really like it a lot!
My question:
when I work on my website with 250+ pages, it strains the performance to make even the slightest changes to the page structure. I work with two Masters each with much the same horisontal menu widget.
Adding, deleting and rearranging pages makes the PC (Windows 7 laptop of some but not awesome power) make a halt and take a deep breathe for some seconds. It really interupts the flow of working.
A crude work around for this is to removing the menu widget in the two masters and put it into a new master page, containing only the copied menu from the two other masters and keeping the rest of the header in place on the original masters to use for aligning on the pages. This way, only one page has to update when working with adding, deleting and rearranging pages.
I have tried to look for a preference to disable updating the Menu widget when working on the page structures and just enable it the update again when the work is done? does it exist? else I would recommend it strongly :-) Since my work around is a bit tricky/risky to use after publishing ;-)
Again, thanks a lot for this nice program. Being a selftought CS (now CCC) user I like the ease of control of the webdesign you can get with Muse (at the dispence of other features of course - if you ever wanted to add some sort of database-lookup feature it would be MUCH appreciated. One workaround is to use iframe and an external search/lookup page, that returns results with links back to parent pages. A bit funny construction though :-) ).

Glad to know you are enjoying Muse.
It can be very processor intensive if you have multiple Master pages with their own All Pages menu widget. Take a look at the following threads and refer to Zak's response.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1423767
http://forums.adobe.com/message/6166722
See if you are able to use just one All Pages menu widget at your site while taking advantage of the hierarchical Master page feature.
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/adobe-muse-hierarchical-master-pages/
We are aware of the performance issues caused by the Menu widget (All pages type) and is something being looked upon by the engineering in one of the upcoming releases.

Two work-arounds for Siena when working with large files

MonaTech pointed out that Project Siena will crash when switching to the desktop or another app. I've also noticed this happening even when the monitor goes to sleep with inactivity. To be clear, this is *developing* in Siena, not after the app
you're working on has been compiled and installed.
The 'non-technical' work-around that has been successful for me is to split the screen before I switch to another app. It's not perfect but at least I can switch to another app (browser, desktop app, etc.) without losing where I'm at.
A more technical work-around is proposed in this thread:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/c768be8f-3c85-444e-bb44-6f29abdecee7/project-siena-app-memory-issues-with-large-project-?forum=projectsiena
If you have a version of Visual Studio (that's not Express) it may do the trick for you.
FYI - In the post you'll see that Olivier responded and indicates that this is a known issue.

Problem of crashing in Ill. CS5 when working with big files.....

Hello, I'm working as a cartographer at Port of Rotterdam and frequently work with big maps in Illustrator CS5. As soon as the filesize exceeds 150 MB, and especially when small rasterfiles (mostly jpg's) are placed inside the document, either embedded or not-embedded, me and my collegue get notifications indicating "Can't show preview"or worse: The operation can't be concluded due to lack of RAM (dutch translation). This being a last warningsign just before CS5 collapses and it thus becomes impossible to make any Save on the document.... The hardware we work with: Quad Core 3GHz;NVidia Quadro 1GB;Windows XP with SP3, DirectX9; 8GB int. memory. We hope to find out the reasons of the frequent collapses and if you know of any possible solutions. On behalf of many of my collegues, thank you in advance for replying, greetings, Fred van Eck

There can be other causes for instance if your scratch disk is fragmented and if your scratch disk has gotten overloaded with actual files storage.
Or if the permissions for the scrtch has been changed for some reason.
The scratch need a lot of free contigious free space to work well with large files.
Even with CS 6 you can have a problem if your scratch is not healthy.
Do you have a dedicated drive or partition of one as a primary scratch, does the scratch have a fast enough buffer (cache)? Current drives run 32 MB and 64 MB cache.
Is the file stored on a fast disk?
If you work on large files consider storing them on a RAID 0 for while working on them and storing the final some where else.
CS 6 should be helpful but you need lots for RAM I would not run a system and work on large files with 8GB of memeory 16GB should be your minimum.
If you are working in a professional envoronment then you really need a professional set up and make your life easier and save money in the time you save.
It is expensive to set up but wotth it in the end.

You are stuck with giving PS less than 70% of the RAM resources or else you will starve computer and it may crash.
And if you run any other programs at the same time it takes more computer resources to keep everything running.
If running huge files you don't have many options. It may work better in CS5 or less as seems like every new version takes more horsepower, and CS6 sends a lot of work to the video card.

How do I get all the dynamically related files to show when working with wordpress files in DW?

I have set up MAMP on my Mac and have set up a user in phpmyadmin. I have downloaded wordpress and put it in the mamp folder. I have defined the site at MAMP/htdocs in Applications. I have started to look at the files through the index.php files near the root folder. I pressed 'discover' underneath the document tab to discover dynamically related files. However, this only results in five extra files being shown in the document tab as can be seen in the screen shot provided. Apparently I should have loads to play with. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I have a Mac computer with NVIDIA 750M dedicated graphics card and monitor EIZO but the problem was there when I was working with Windows and Acer monitor. When I open a file from Camera Raw in PS this is smaller than the screen so I double-click with the tool "hand" to fit on the screen, but the picture loses sharpness and becomes blurry. If you magnify the image even only slightly with the tool "zoom" the picture comes back clear. In Camera Raw instead is always sharp. I solve the problem by turning off the graphics card in PS but often use plugin that need the graphics card otherwise the processing time is much longer. I ask for help.
Thanks.

Photoshop CS6 keeps freezing when I work with large files

I've had problems with Photoshop CS6 freezing on me and giving me RAM and Scratch Disk alerts/warnings ever since I upgraded to Windows 8. This usually only happens when I work with large files, however once I work with a large file, I can't seem to work with any file at all that day. Today however I have received my first error in which Photoshop says that it has stopped working. I thought that if I post this event info about the error, it might be of some help to someone to try to help me. The log info is as follows:

I really hope to hear from someone soon, my job requires me to work with Photoshop every day and I run into errors and bugs almost constantly and all of the help I've received so far from people in my office doesn't seem to make much difference at all. I'll be checking in regularly, so if you need any further details or need me to elaborate on anything, I should be able to get back to you fairly quickly.
Thank you.

Here you go Conroy. These are probably a mess after various attempts at getting help.

Quicklook does not work with WMV files and quick look no longer maintains resized views when viewing from a folder using the up/down arrows

Quicklook does not work with WMV files and quick look no longer maintains resized views when viewing from a folder using the up/down arrows. Any fixes?

Same problem here...

I accidentally cut instead of copied a folder of previously imported raw files. When I pasted the folder back I could see it in Windows Explore but not in the LR library. How can I work with these files again?

HI,
My daughter will often ask me to give her raw files I've taken at family events so that she can process them in her own copy of LR. (I work too slowly, apparently.) Recently I inadvertently cut instead of copied a folder. When I pasted it back I could see it in Windows Explorer but not in my LR library. I thought that re-importing the files might work, LR gave me a message that they were already imported. I expect there is a way to make the files available again in LR and would be grateful for some advice.
thanks
Ken

The solutions is either of the following:
Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders
Copy the photos back into the exact same folder and folder location that they were in before
I don't know what you actually did "when I pasted it back" ... but the bigger issue is that you shouldn't be working with these files in your operating system, period. Once you import them into Lightroom, you don't manage these files in your operating system.

Can Premiere Pro CC work with mpeg files?

I tried to work with *.mpeg files, but can import them into a project.
Can Premiere Pro CC impoert and export mpeg (1, 2) files?

Lucky ...
As shooternz says, yes ... although if you are new, you may not realize that when you start a project, you have to manually "create a sequence" first, THEN you can add clips to the sequence. Until you have a sequence on the timeline, simply dragging & dropping from either the source monitor or project/browser panel to the timeline area will not work. Nor trying add a clip to the timeline either by the properties panel (after right-clicking on a clip) or the top menus.
Create a new sequence on the timeline, then ... you can drag & drop from either the source or project/browser panels, right-clicking on footage and using the property menus, all now works.
Steps to create a new sequence ... "ctrl(cmd) - N" with keyboard to create a new sequence, or in project/media browser panel ... right-click and choose "new -> sequence", or in that panel click on the piece of paper with a folded-corner icon (lower right corner) then choose "new->sequence" or of course, "File->new->sequence" from the main menu bar.
