Premier CS4 version 4.2.1 - High Def Support Gone!!!

I've been using Premier Pro CS4 for about a year now. Lot's of strange bugs encountered along the way, but I've been able to work around most of them with the help of this forum. Now I have a new problem. My support for high def files has completly dissapeared from Premier. An existing project I had been working on fine a few days ago won't work anymore - the high def file I was working with is not showing up in Premier. When I try to relink it to the source - I get a "file format not supported" error. So I tried re-importing and I get the same error when I select the high def file (AVCHD). I also tried creating a new project in Premier. When I do I notice now that AVCHD is no longer listed as an option in the settings - only DV is available. So for some reason it appears my high def support has just dissapeared.
If anyone could help explain this and provide a solution it would be much appreciated. Once again, I stopped dead in the water by another strange behaviour in Premier.
Thanks!

Sounds like your full-paid version has reverted to the trial. This has happened to several users.
The steps to correct it are:
1.) Deactivate the program. This is probably not available - grayed out.
2.) Uninstall PrPro
3.) Run Adobe Clean Script (now CS5) several times, rebooting between each run.
4.) Probably run a Registry cleaner, like CCleaner
5.) Install CS4
6.) Immediately update to CS4.2
Good luck,
Hunt

Preview While Capturing High Def in Pro CS4?

Greetings:
Running Vista 64 bit, 12 GB RAM, Intel Core i7, NVidia GTX275. When I capture high def via 1394 from my Sony tape-based camcorder, the preview screen in the capture window changes to that text message, and does not show the video. Is there a setting that I am missing somewhere, so that I can see the video being captured? Surely this machine has enough power to handle that...
Thanks in advance for any replies.
Norm

Norm,
Unfortunately, there is no Preview, when doing a Capture of HD material. This is felt to be a major shortcoming of PrPro, but that is the way that it is.
Sorry for the bad news,
Hunt

Help with Installing Premier CS4

Pl
ease, some one with experience on Premier CS4 Help Me in setting this program up
Over View:
Windows 7
I just installed Creative Suite CS4 in place of CS3. CS4 Installed fine.
NOW I can NOT edit any clips to Encore and then to burn a DVD. -- OR Export to Tape.
My camera is a Sony HVR-V1U High Def which shoots at 1080/60i. My desktop recorder is a Sony GV-HD700. I put recorded tapes into this and feed into Premier by firewire connection. All HAS worked fine in CS3. The Capture window accepts the cameras and recorders under Sony Standard, as no listing is given by a specific name.
To make Capture work, I must set the input clips as a DV;,...NOT as a HDV. No HDV setting will allow me to Capuure footage. Only DV.
     ????? How can I Capture HDV????
     ???? Am I missing some 3rd party capture card??? Did NOT need one in CS3.
* To be sure, Please tell me what settings to establish when setting up a NEW edit. or a new project.
* I can capture the clips into Premier fine & save as a project...But CS4 will not export to Encore
*   After edits and rendering and saving, I attempt to Export to Encore to burn DVD's. ENCORE does NOT appear in the Export window. I did locate a link to ENCORE via Dynamic lionk in File of the project. BUT as ENCORE attempts to accept the project, the horizontal rendering bar stops and effort stops. There is NOT a saved ENCORE folder or project, as was with CS3 in the compute, where Premier established the Encore file in normal process. (All Encore project files from CS3 are found in My Docs//Larry//Adobe//Premier//3.)
(Note: I could NOT register and get Adobe help when I purchased this Program because I am involved in environmantal remediation in remote jungles. Just returned to do files and make films of our work. Adobe refuses to help me as they have for many years as a no cost service upon purchasing a program.)
Please assist me. I am really stuck on this now.

Hi Jerry,
You are VERY kind to reply with help.
I do still have CS3 and CS 4 installed on 2 computers. 1 with Win 7 and 1
with XP. At this moment, I am happ0yt I did not erase CS3 because I have
"cludged" a way to go forward until a fix for CS4 Encore crasing BOTH
computers when engaged to burn a DVD from either Premier CS 3 or CS4.
In fooling around with the software, I have reduced my issues to two: (1)
Encore CS4 crashes both computers when sending a Premier project to be
converted into a DVD. (2) It seems that a 3rd party software patch or a
card is necessary to send 1080i into Premier. Premier at its present
settings will NOT keep input (capture footage) as 1080i (HDV) and allow to
be captured. Must change Capture settings to DV so footage can be input.
There MUST be a fix for that.

Connect my Mac book Pro to a hdmi high def tv

HOW DO I CONNECT MY MACBOOK PRO TO A HIGH DEF TV
built 2008 version 4, 1 It does not have a mini dvi port

See the attached link. There are several other lengths available. Check just to be certain that your MBP has an DVI port. Sound will NOT be transmitted. That would require connections from your audio output port.

High def videos vs. Low def videos on iPad

Hi, everybody. I bought a video, and accidentally bought it in high def, when I meant to get low def. It downloaded and played just fine, so apparently my iPad does support high def, but I'm wondering whether it was worth the extra money.
I've heard that when you buy a high def video from the app store, you get both it and the low def version. So my question is, how do I find the low def version to get a look at it before I buy another video?

Please see: iTunes Store: Viewing and downloading HD content on iPad which should clear this up for you.

Steve

Are apple a high def joke?

Im close to giving up on apple, heres why :
I have owned final cut pro for a while now and up graded my camera to hd. I bought the top of the range sony camcorder hc7 which is mac compatible and looked forward to making my first high def movies.
But my mac would not capture the footage becasue my verison of Final cut pro HD wouldnt read it. So the guys at the MAc store suggested two solutions
1 downgrade and buy final cut pro express which would read the format
2 upgrade to the new version of final cut pro sutdio which would also read the format.
The problem with solution two is that i was adivsed by the guys at the MAc store that my Powerbook G5 was not powerful enough to run the new new Final cut studio annd so they suggested by a new machine.
So i looked into buying a new machine but this is the bit I am amazed at Mac dont make any machine that can write to Bluray. If I am going to spend a large amount of money to upgrade my technology to high definition there is now way Im buying a machine without a bluray drive. I can of course buy a pc with blu ray drive no probelm. In my opinion apple are a high def joke. Any reason why I shouldnt abandon apple all together and guet myself a Viao?

Jeff I dont understand your comparison of Bluray to Dlt. Bluray is the only storage technology that can seriously be expected to fit high def movies. I dont expect to be able to cram them onto to DVD's. Since HD DVD withdrew from the market, one could hardly consider BLuray format of the week. In case you hadnt noticed high def is the new way of shooting and displaying video. I would suggest walking into any home entertainment store to discover this. Morever I bought final cut pro HD , its got HD at the end of the title of the software so its not reaally unreasonable to assume it might be able to handle HD. Well it couldnt, it wouldnt read my high def footage and I was told by the guys at the MAc store to either upgrade to a version of Final cut pro that would (which involved buying a new machine) or spend exra money to downgrade to another verison that would.
If its such a waste of time to put Blu ray drives in computers why are there many pcs with bluray drives? wake up Apple, people are buying high def products and they will want to output it somewhere. To describe Bluray as obscure sounds bizarre to me. Did you not read the news? bluray won the format war. Its so frustrating being a loyal Apple customer to be so behind the times. I feel like an idiot for going with Apple.
I dont need fancy blu ray functionality, I just want to be able to make my movies and not have to worry about fitting them on a disc that cant cope. I dont really want to switch to pc but so far I havent found any good reasons not too yet. I have a stack of tapes shot on high def needing to be edited. Right now my Mac cant cope with it, Im not willing to buy a new Mac that doesnt have a bluray drive when i can buy a new PC that does. Unless of course i
can make my film in FCP and use an external driver to burn into onto a blu ray? If so can anyone reccomend one?

After updating to windows 8.1 iTunes does not think I have high definition display. Playback with other internet apps is in high def, but not iTunes.

I updated to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8. Now when I try to play high definition movies, iTunes says they can not play back on my display which is low def. My display has high resolution and display settings are correct. Other websites play back in high def. Just not iTunes.

When is it time to invest in a high-def editing setup?

I own a ten year old digital editing appliance that I'm considering replacing with Final Cut Pro. I want to start work on some niche documentaries that I plan to sell online. I made one documentary at home about six years ago that I still sell online.
I've never bought a HD TV because I don't watch broadcast television. I find conventional DVDs on high-def screens very grainy in image quality ... downright unwatchable ... so to this day I still watch all my DVDs (homemade and store-bought) on a big tube television set.
Personally, I don't want a high-def TV for watching old movies and 70's TV shows on DVD. I'm perfectly happy with my tube TV, my 2001-era editor, and my twelve year old standard-definition Sony PD150 cancorder which I just had serviced and cleaned.
Heck, 20% of my viewing pleasure still comes from videocassettes, which I can get at the Goodwill for 25 cents a piece.
But ... now... I have some ideas for some new niche video products. Only problem is ... I haven't followed the conversation about high-def at all. I'm wholly and utterly ignorant. Pretty much all I know is that BluRay won the format war … and I know I can look up 720p, 1080p, 1080i should that information become important.
That's the extent of my knowledge. I honestly have no idea whether my Sony PD-150, my old editor, and single-layer DVDs would be just fine ... or whether they would result in a bunch of refund requests when I start selling these new DVDs I want to make.
God help me. I just don't keep up with what other people are doing.
And googling "do-I-need-to-dump-my-90's-era-digital-camcorder-and-standard-definition-editing- appliance-in-favor-of-ten-thousand-dollars-worth-of-new-high-def-cam-and-editing -gear-if-I'm-going-to-make-another-sellable-DVD" didn't really yield much.
Can anyone help me here?
1) Is anyone in the lower-mid-range video business … like a budget wedding guy or a niche how-to video … still using standard-def stuff to churn out acceptable product in high volume?
I've sold hundreds of copies of my DVD online and two weeks ago I got my first ever refund request … the guy berated me for selling a DVD in standard definition when (he said) the "commercial standard" now is high-def. No one else has ever complained. So now I'm left wondering if this guy is the first of a new generation of customers who would not tolerate a standard-def product … or if he's just a dork who needed to complain about something.
2) How does manufacturing a high number of copies of a high-def video work? My 50-minute standard-def movie fit wonderfully on an inexpensive 4.7GB DVD. Running off copies was cheap and painless. I understand that high-def discs are some 25GB. Are you guys with your new Mac and Final Cut Pro working with HD buying these expensive discs for large volume runs? Are even decent bread-and-butter wedding shoots or corporate training films these days getting burned to BluRays?
3) Does it make sense to trade in a perfectly good 90's high-end standard definition digital cam for a new HD cam when I'm still going to burn it to a conventional DVD?
4) Is my gear still perfectly acceptable for budget projects? I really don't want to pay for Final Cut Pro and a HD burner ... I would only get one if my old editor is flat-out obsolete, which it certainly isn't for editing home movies.
Note: "Budget" does not mean poorhouse. I'm talking about "working" niche videos … competent (non-broadcast) megachurch sermon DVDs … homemade documentaries … non-Rolls-Royce weddings … small business promo videos ...
… the stuff that working joe videos are made of.
What constitutes "reasonable and acceptable" these days, when just about everybody has a high-def TV set they're watching these things on?

When I made the move from SD it was painful. It was just before the digital broadcast change over and when I hooked up my new Samsung 37" HD TV to my cable box I almost hurled.
since then, almost all of the broadcasters have caught up with HD transmission and almost all broadcast stuff in 1080i or 720p look amazing.
Standard Def DVDs are another story. Well done commercial SD DVDs can look quite nice when playing back through my new Samsung Blu-ray player. The folks who compress down to SD for the big studios are indeed rocket scientists and they're doing things that most of us simply can't afford to do.
Plus, the scaling technology in players and TVs has come a long way as well. So Don't throw out your standard DVDs just yet.
Should you consider a Hi Def camera? I'd say Yes, The time has come. If all you were doing was posting 480P online I'd say use your camera til it croaks. but the optical delivery is a factor for you.
Authoring your own BD for mass duplication? That's a little more complicated still. There are licensing issues involved in Blu-ray authoring which are complex. It's one of the reasons that we probably won't see Blu-ray hardware in Macs for a while. I don't think you can duplicate as easily as you can with DVD. You can burn your own one at a time if that's a possibility for you.
Shooting HD and delivering SD DVDs? It can be done. But compressing so that you end up with a satisfactory product is sort of a black art. You'll see lot's of discussions online about how many people are disappointed with HD to DVD, some claiming that their SD to DVD projects actually look better.
My latest technique for getting respectable DVDs is to first downrez in Mpeg Streamclip to an anamorphic SD file still in the Prores codec. Then I use Bitvice to do the mpeg2 file.
The bottom Line.
If you can afford it, get a new camera, BD burner and learn how to author BD. The authoring software is not fully baked yet for mac users but you should definitely head in that direction ASAP. You can even incorporate SD footage in an HD timeline and the SD footage is much more palatable than SD DVD.
On the up-side, you might be happy to know that you missed the worst of it. Be thankful that you were able to put it off so long. There are many other people out there who rode the bleeding edge and suffered a great deal of economic and emotional trauma.
good Luck!

How can I use both high def (16:9) and regular def (4:3) in the same video?

I'm editing a load of video, some of it was shot in 16:9 high-def and some in 4:3 regular-def. Id really hate to see the 4:3 footage go to waste. What can I tack on to the black sidebars on either end of this footage to fill in the gaps? I've also seen on TV where the sidebars on old 4:3 footage is blurred out by video from that particular frame. How can I do this?

Just duplicate the footage and superimpose.
Stretch the underlaying footage to fill the screen and add a blur.

InDesign CS4 version 6.0.6. and Mac OS 10.6.8

iMac 24 inch, OS 10.6.8, InDesign CS4 version 6.0.6. Since upgrading to 10.6.8, I can no longer print double sided. The problem does not exist with any other software I have Adobe or not. I have a HP LaserJet 2300dn printer with the most current driver installed connected to ethernet. The printer acts as if it is printing a double sided page, but what should be one page comes out as two pages.
Is there a solution to the problem?

There are reports of printing problems for some people (not me) under 10.6.8.

Downloading High Def Mini DV through Macbook pro to external hard drive

Hi, I am making a 90min High def documentary with the hopes of selling it comercialy. I purchased a Sony hdr-hc7 and we shot 28 hours of footage with another 30 hrs to come. My plan is to rent a tape deck to download the DVM-63HD Mini DV Video Cassettes through my Macbook pro to an external hard drive.
My question is will I lose the High Def quality because I only have one firewire 400 input and will have to daisy chain the tape deck through the back of the external Hard drive. I asume that I'll need about 2000 gbs of external storage for the project, correct? Also, will my system be able to handle the editing, compresion and then creation of a master (maybe renting a Blue ray disc burner).
I have a macbook pro 15" with 1gb ddr2 sdram 667 mhz speed. There is a Bank 0 and a Bank 1 slot for ram that list have ing 1gb of ram (does this mean there are 2gb of ram?). Also, the firewire is 400mb/sec. Graphics card is an ATY,RadeonX1600. I'm using final cut pro 5.1.4. that I bought with finalcut studio pro.

Hi(Bonjour)!
If you use Apple Intermediate Codec to capture, you'll need 12 to 15 meg/second of space, that's an hefty 45 to 48 gig. for one hour. ( an external hard disk about 58 X 48 gig: 2784 gig ...)
As I read in FCS2 additionnal documentation regarding work in HDV and other formats, you can capture HDV natively (same hard drive space than regular mini DV), but you will need more processor power to display and scroll content than media captured with AIC.
