Canon vixia HF G10 + premiere CS4 = dropped frames?!

I bought a canon vixia HF G10. It stores video in chunks of 2GB size .MTS files.
I put those files in premiere time line sequentially, and found that right before the file boundary, the video jumps forward by 3 frames, and after crossing the boundary, the same frame repeats 3 times. I checked two different boundaries and both have the same problem. This is very upsetting.
Has anyone seen this before? I don't know if this is a camcorder bug or a premiere bug.
Is there a free video player or editor I can use to examine the last few frames and the first few frames of .MTS files?
Premiere CS4 64 bit on windows 7

The answer I found is that when canon camcorder split the MTS file into 2GB chunks, only the first file has the proper MTS header. The other files do not and are therefore not really MTS files.
The correct solution is to concatenate all the files back into one MTS file before putting them into premiere. Using windows command prompt copy /B would do the trick. However with later windows version not having command prompt, other binary concatenation utility need to be used. Canon's own software that comes with the camcorder would also work, but I don't like it.

What's hardware should upgrade for Using Premiere CS4 to editing (AVCHD)m2ts file?

What's hardware or software should upgrade for Using Premiere CS4 to editing (AVCHD)m2ts file?
1st question: when i try to do editing by using Premiere CS4 AVCHD sequence timeline, the edting monitor seems not smooth (like wearing goggles) & delay, and when i use AME to encode m2ts file (which not yet edit) to AVI file (about 1 hour), it take 2h 13min to finish, is it normal?
2nd question: i use mpeg2 HD 1440 file to do eding, the edting monitor also not very smooth but better than using m2ts file, after editing done, i try to encode these mpeg2 HD 1440 file (which edited about long 1 hr) to a New file mpeg2 1440 X 1080i HQ or even mpeg2 Pal DV HQ file, the encoding was not runthe encoding after wait for half an hour. How many hours it take usually????
3rd question: i use m2ts file video file to export as a Bitmap, 1 frame 1 picture bitmap, it take long time too, about 1 or 2min to finish encoding, if i export more than 1 picture, it take even more time, i have experienced it, 3 or 4 pictures need about 10 or 15 min to finish encoding. i used to using mpeg2 HD 1440 file (which edited file) to export frame as picture, it not run the encoding at all. WHY ????
i'm new in Premiere CS4,so i got many question about Premiere CS4, usually i use Premiere Pro 1.5 version

Premiere CS4. Video-individual images freeze. abrupt change from frame to frame.

Hi
I'm working with Adobe Premiere CS4... windows XP prof SP3 4GB RAM. ATI Radeon 38XX Graphic
my problem is as following: working window: the projection of individual frames in a movie doesn't run smoothly, the change from frame to frame is abrupt, almost robotic...it also freezes occasionally .. sound is fine though.
I've reinstalled all recent graphic and sound drivers and also latest updates but the problem is still there...
Please advice A:S:A:P
Thanks,

Premiere Cs4 handle CPU...performance...and idiot questions

Ok, i tried to read as much as i could, performance threads about Premiere Cs4...but couldn't help it.
So i upgraded to Production Premium Cs4 before 2 weeks...
I've noticed all the problems that were mentioned...what i can't understand is the LOW PERFOMANCE in export or preview
my system runs a QUAD 6600 with 8gbs RAM, NVIDIA 8800GT and XP64...
after effects runs fine in almost maximum CPU (if you adjust it in preferences), but premiere (that means and ABOBE MEDIA encoder) exports in 5-20% of the CPU...if you try to encode with TMPGEnc processes go much faster and cpu is quite high...
question 1) (yes i know i am dumb...)
exporting speed has to do with footage, type of media that is being exporting and GPU??????
2)is my system, just not enough???
3)Premiere CS4 cannot handle multicore anyway...and every user here has the same problems??????
Sometimes...i think that i will do BAD things in my PC when PREMIERE is SO SLOW and i am in such hurry...Someone...coould answer? before i start taking drugs????????????????
A Straight answer 1) ,2) ,3) would be really nice for my emotional condition...

Roger thank you very much!
It is now starting to make sense. I have only run it once and not tried any other tricks yet (like trying to use the Source from the RAID array rather than from the C: drive)
Now rather than taking 130 seconds for encoding it is down to 25 seconds versus 8 seconds for CS3. I suspect that at least some of that is because they are using the C: drive for the source.
MPEG encoding has also a major improvement by using the rendered preview files and as matter of fact it reduced the MPEG encoding time from 75 seconds (CS3) to 57 seconds (CS4)! Maybe we will have to go back to suggesting rendering the timeline before any encoding.
One other plus for CS4 is that the rendering is much smarter in that any duplicate segments are rendered only one time.
Why do they hide these menus with such tiny hard to find icons? I had a similar problem finding a playback option for my second monitor.

Frame duplication during 2vuy (in .avi) import on Premiere CS4

Hello:
I am currently trying to import a complete Premiere CS4 (version 4.2.1) project on my laptop, Windows 7 - 64bit, which doesn't have an AJA Kona 3 card installed. The detailed file specification of the source file is given further below and had been created on a system with AJA's Kona card. The source files are in an AVI wrapper, in OpenDML, with 2vuy and had been created by the AJA Kona card on a different system.
The file gets imported into Premiere, and it displays the correct file length, here of about 56mn 24s. However, I can only access the first few seconds. If I drag the video file to the timeline, I realized that every frame is present for about 2 minutes and 40 seconds, which results in about 18 seconds of the original file length. To explain it in different words - I have the same frame at position 00:00:00, 00:00:01, 00:00:02 until 02:39:24.
The original files can be properly displayed within the windows media player, which utilizes a YCbCr Codec from Drastic Technology Inc. Therefore, I strongly believe that the source files aren't corrupted. What should I do now?

Hello Filmemacher,
AJA has a QuickTime Codec out for the Format you need. The Codec is free and the File can be played/exported through QuickTime (Pro Version only). Another Solution is the Drastic Codec Suite that has all the AJA/Kona, DVS, Optibase Codecs plus the normal ones from Windows (IYUV, I420, UYVY, YUY2, YVYU) in one Codec. The download Link has been updated with the new Versions on the Drastic Website. The Drastic Codec works for AVI in Windows and MOV for QuickTime for encoding and decoding Films. I use them myself for a long Time now without any Problems.
Please note: There are some Links to old Versions of the Drastic/Optibase Codecs in the Internet, mainly in Eastern Countrys. Stay away from them because of many Virus alerts and unstable outdated Versions.
Best regards, Mickey
Here is the Link to Download the new Version 3.4 with Vista/7/8 64 Bit Support:

Camtasia Poor Quality in Premiere CS4 Export

I am a PC user. One of my clients uses Mac and Camtasia to screen capture his software program, which I need to integrate into a video I am making for his company. The MP4 Camptasia file he sends me looks good. I bring the file into Premiere to edit it, but when I export it, the clip done with Camtasia has very poor quality, while the footage I shot with my video camera looks great.
Specs:
Camera: HMC40, PH mode 1080/60i (MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression).
PC: i7 quad-core 64-bit running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, 8 GB RAM.
Editor: Premiere CS4 in the Adobe CS4 Master Collection .
New Sequence setup in Premiere: AVCHD > 1080i > AVCHD 1080i30 (60i) Anamorphic.
Premiere’s export settings:
Format: MPEG2
Preset: HDTV 1080p 29.97 High Quality
Multiplexer tab > Bitrate and Buffering Details: Variable
Video Tab > Basic Video Settings > Quality: 5
Field Order > None (progressive)
Profile > Main
Bitrate Settings: Bitrate Encoding: VBR 2Pass
Minimum Bitrate: 4 (default)
Target Bitrate: 15 (default)
Maximum Bitrate: 18.5 (default)
GOP Settings > M Frames: 3 (default)
N Frames: 15 (default)
Output summary: NTSC, 1920X1080, 29.97 drop frame (fps), Progressive, Quality 5.0
Note in general: I found that if I set the Bitrate Encoding at VBR 1Pass, I got glitches sporadically.Using VBR 2Pass has solved this.
My question about the Camtasia clip:
1) How can I get the Camtasia footage to be as sharp in the export as in the original?
Other questions in general:
2) Are my New Sequence setting in Premiere correct? AVCHD > 1080i > AVCHD 1080i30 (60i) Anamorphic
3) Is my choice to export as MPEG2, HDTV 1080p 29.97 High Quality preset, the best for the footage I shoot?
4) Is my choice to set the Multiplexer tab > Bitrate and Buffering Details at ‘Variable’ the best?
5) Do my Bitrate and GOP settings need adjustment?
6) Should my Export field order be Upper instead of Progressive?

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
The frame rate is 1038 X 882
That is a very odd frame size, and one that probably won't work well no matter what workflow you use. You asked:
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
how could he better capture and export to match my workflow?
Have him capture and export to match your desired export frame size for the finished project.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
How would you suggest I change my workflow to handle the interlaced and progressive issue?
I can't answer that until I know exactly how you intend to deliver your finished video. Any answers to your other questions will also likely depend on your intended delivery format and media.

Premiere CS4 - Encoding with AME ridiculously slow

Hello there.
After having read many threads on various forums, I have not come to a single hint as to why AME is encoding any type of video materal extremely slow. I'm sorry if this question has been asked many times on this forum, but maybe someone has come up with a working solution?
My computer specifications are:
Windows Vista 32bit (yes I know, upgrade is needed)
Intel Quad Core Q9000 @ 2 GHz
4 GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce 9700M GT - 512mb
500GB sATA HDD @ 5400 rpm
This is a notebook. I use Premiere CS4 and AME4 with the most current updates (v4.1)
Here is what I usually do:
I export my project media from Premier to AME with the appropriate format and encoder settings, close Premiere and kill all background tasks. My RAM usage is now at around 1.4 GB (out of 3 GB!).
In this case, I'd use the built-in MPEG2 codec with PAL settings (720x576 - 25i - 8Mbit/sec), the source file is in MPEG4 @ 20Mbit and 10 minutes long. I started the encoding process and it was slowing down from 10 minutes initially to a frustrating render time of 60 minutes. Why?
I have used VirtualDub and TMPGEnc, both achieved, compared to AME, incredibly low render times, a bit higher than double realtime. When I use AME the same way, as encoder for an avi file only and not a Premiere project, it is losing by 6-7 times of the other programs render time.
Second scenario:
I have 20 seconds uncompressed avi material (600Mbit/sec) and like to convert it to MPEG4 with AME. MPEG4 settings are at 50Mbit, I-frames only, 50fps and progressive. I started the encoding again and at first, AME was rushing through 1/4th of the progress bar in 5 seconds, and then slowing down to an overall encoding time of 50 (!) minutes and it ended about 52 minutes later.
During this rendering I had the windows resourcemonitor (of the taskmanager) open and checked the access rate to my hard disk. For the entire duration of 50 minutes, AME read between 50 megabyte and 125 megabyte per second on the hard disk. The file itself was less than 2 GB large - what on earth could it read? Also, my RAM usage came close to 2,8 GB but never reached 3 GB or higher.
Does anyone have an idea or is it just that freeware programs are superior to a costly AME?

I have already run that test about 4 hours prior to writing this thread. Now I'm not at this computer, but from top of my head the results were:
Total 180 (about)
Export Avi 38 (not entirely certain, could be up to 10 higher)
Encode MPEG 90 (not entirely certain, could be 20 lower or higher)
Render Time 7 (the only number I recall correctly)
I'm well aware my hard disk isn't fast - but why should VirtualDub be able to encode a 2gb uncompressed avi clip with a duration of 20 seconds to DivX in about a 1/3rd real time/8fps (using 50mbit, i-frames and 50fps and amazing quality) while AME takes 50 minutes (1/200th realtime) for the same file with the integrated MPEG4 encoder?
Now, I know that those are different codecs, yet their data reduction works on a similar base. From my point of view, there's not much that could explain such a high discrepancy of performance on the hardware side, other than AME just does not like my computer configuration. I know my computer is very capable to perform way better than that, just with about any other program but AME, and that is a royal pain.
Unfortunately, I am unable to install a second HDD in this notebook, because it is full. I do know it could perform better using a secondary HDD, but I have also encoded files with Adobe Premiere CS3, and that performed way better than CS4 on the same computer.

Premiere CS4 vs Full HD YouTube (BEST quality) settings?

Windows Vista Premium (32-bit)
Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 (Version 4.2)
Hello. I have a problem. I've been using this settings to save my work for youtube:
http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/6816/settingsr.png
Now, here is a quality that I get with it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2teDL4MPS_8
I've been playing around with the settings and somehow today I saved this file:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMBixEnweWQ
I have no idea what I've changed, but the quality difference is significant!!!
I know the text is a little tiny bit smaller in the better quality one and it was move a couple of pixels, but that's not the point. I am 100% sure it has to do something with the settings.
Here are properties for both files:
http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/9373/propertiesz.png
It is kind off strange because a "Good Quality.mp4" files has a better quality over "Bad Quality.mp4" yet it has a smaller Size as well as Data rate and Total bitrate (highlighted in red)
I've even tried doing this hoping it would increase the quality. Maybe it did, but not significantly. Not nearly as good as the "Good Quality.mp4"

What could be an issue? Can you guys help me work my settings in Adobe Premiere CS4? It is one of those situations where I don't care about files size... I want to quality and I wanted it the finest.
Thanks... All help is greatly appreciated...

Hi,
I'm back...made dinner and took a break...
I hope you bear with me on this as I really would like to see you get good results...and there's no reason why a title couldnt be loaded up to youtube with good results..
First off, a rule of thumb about video editing is this...
1) project settings match the source footage.
That's something it took me a while to learn but I finally did ( from people helping me here in fact ).
Another sorta general rule is that what you export would be about the same as your project settings ( same frame rate, same type of video (interleaved or progressive), same aspect ratio ( 4:3 or 16:9 ) and so on. The biggest difference in exporting is the type of delivery format ( mpeg 2 for DVD or mpeg 4 for web and that sort of thing...which means the codec you choose for export will be related to the final product usage.
Also, and this happens a lot....you can downsize the video to a smaller size...like go from HD to SD for a DVD instead of Blue Ray. Orrrrr, downsize video to play on a hand held device ( ipod ) etc.
Sooo, basically what you first do generally is create a project that matches your source footage. In the case of DV NTSC it would look something like this:
720x480, 29.97 fps ( which is how 30fps interleaved works because of a timing mark in the frame - when to start the next field scan --so its not exactly 30fps ) --- aspect ratio 4:3, interleaved, bottom field first , and so on.
As you can see from the general "specs" most of the important and outstanding things about the video in that format of describing it, most people will talk about their video source specs the same sorta way.
Like, 1920x1080 24p ( means HD progressive 24 FPS - the "P" after 24 means progressive )
The best results for export usually follow the source and project specs very closely. You CAN make an interleaved video progressive, but you have to half the size ( frame dimensions ) to do that and make it look good, because when you go to progressive you lose one field....lose half the resolution..
So lets say I start a project that is DV NTSC like you did...and made a title...
That is going to be 720x480 29.97 fps interleaved ( or progressive ) 4:3 aspect ratio OR 16:9. If interleaved it will be bottom field first, if progressive it will be NO FIELDS. The pixel aspect ratio is weird and depends on whether it is 4:3 or 16:9 and if I remember right neither one is square pixel. Sooo, this gives you the general idea what the project settings can be.
You could tell us exactly what your project settings are ( since theres no source video no need to worry about that for now ...can deal with that when you do get some video ....for now we can just get it exported well for the title )
Your project settings will tell us what would be BEST for exporting for YouTube...but I would bet that if you match DV NTSC with the YouTube preset to export DV NTSC as Ann mentioned earlier you would get GREAT results !
The problem so far has been trying to UPSCALE to HD from SD. That's why it has been geting blurry.
Now, just so you know....you can make a brand new project that is in fact HD ...and do a title and then export THAT to youtube also...as HD, without losing any quality also....but you need to set the project settings for HD first.
I hope this helps a little and sorry my head was spinning around earlier ...please don't hesitate to ask more questions...OK ?
ps... because you are only dealing with a title ( which is a bit different than actual video ) you may in fact get decent results upscaling to HD from SD...but you really shouldn't get used to doing that ...as you can just as easily create the HD project, make the title and use the YouTube preset Ann gave you...and it will be beautiful !

Premiere CS4 Quick render

Windows 7 Ultimate
Premiere CS4
Ram 6MB
Working with 1920x1080 footage
Gentlemen !
I am working on a 5 mnis song , each time I send it to AME to render or export to AME it takes atleast 5 to 6 hours to render, Obviuosly I try to stay native with my output file, but sometimes I choose DV NTSC for the output file.
My question is, is there any way to choose a different format for output file, that would take less time to render ? I mean just to check my colors and effects and etc.
What i mean by that is ,my system is not that powerful to handle HD footage very well, so I have to render my footage so I can check all effects and etc.

About if I change the output file's size to a smaller size ?
the prob with that is that you're still dealing with your original asset(s) ( video) and now compressing it and downscaling it etc, and the program has to work pretty hard to do all those calculations and make the product...( like h264 or wmv or whatever )
so its still the same problem re: strain on your computer stuff and time involved....plus you wont know for sure if that "translation" is gonna be as good product re: transistions etc...
lets say you have effects that need the program to "tween" frames..create frames in between your original frames...well....in the math etc and compression algorithyms ( sp? ) that makes that happen from one codec to another is different...and maybe your "color" and overall quality wont give you an " honest" translation compared to if you just export for your final product ( the high res ). Plus, to do the downscaling and so on is actually MORE of a strain on resources maybe...its not a given that by making it smaller it is gonna take less time to export...might take LONGER
know what I mean? it might be close and good enough for what you want to do with your particular output...but I wouldnt trust it myself if I had to give it to someone and stand by it ...
so youre stuck with long exports is what it sounds like, and thank goodness you can even get THAT done !

Is Ciniform still the way to go for editing HD on Premiere CS4?

Hi all,
I may have a opportunity to edit an inde film shot in on P2 HD 1080p. However, i have a few questions....
0. can Premiere CS4 read and edit MXF files?
1. I'm not sure if my Premiere CS4 system will handle it natively without using an intermediate codec like Ciniform. The files have already been transfered to an external drive which i will then transfer to my systems' video drive. The following is my current system configuration:
. Premiere CS4
. Windows 7 x64
. 12gb of DDR3 ram
. Intel 920 quad core processor
. 1tb (2x500gb) video drive
. 1tb (2x500gb) storage drive.
2. The client is not sure the frame rate the video was shot in, either 24p or 59p. Is there a way to determine the correct frame rate so i can select the proper preset in premiere? I may be able to use VLC to view the codec information.

Now i just have to figure out how to get paid for editing this indie film. They called asking me to edit it now and get paid later - yea right!
Get paid before you deliver it.

Need to correct tilted camera position - Premiere CS4

Hello there,
Yesterday I filmed an event with a camera up high in a horizontal bar (on a gorilla pod - upside down).
EDITING WITH PREMIERE CS4
I corrected the upside down position with a vertical and horizontal flip.
But now I have problems with tilting. I tried to use the rotating tool to correct the problem, which worked for the tilting, but the movie frame is now tilted with black filling the rest of the screen. I figured I could use the crop tool to eliminate the black waste, but it only crops along the new tilting frame, which doesn't solve my problem.
What I need is to have the rotation as it is, but crop along the original frame (unrotated). Do I make any sense?
I attach two photos to help clarifying my question.
ORIGINAL
ROTATION
Although it's not very apparent since the edges are mostly black, you can see from the projection screen that my frame is now tilted to the right. The rotation is correct, but I need to eliminate the upper, down, left and right edges to make all the frame uniform again.
Any ideas?
By the way... how can I correct barrel distortion?
Thanks,
Goncalo Figueiredo

even if it was MORE off the horizon plane...it wouldnt bother me at all...
all im saying is it doesnt bother me at all....and next time keep it in mind how to level the camera etc...or else make the whole thing smaller on your delivery and crop it, rotate it etc they way you want to correct...
In other words, put your assets into a smaller project so the video is "bigger" than the project frame...now you can rotate etc and not run out of space...

Adobe Premiere CS4 Projekte archivieren.

Hilfe- ich verzweifle: Ich arbeite mit Adobe Premiere CS4 (Windows). Grosse Probleme habe ich einzig beim Archivieren fertiger Projekte. Kann mir da jemand helfen? Ich lege meine Projekte so an, dass sämtliche Footage-Dateien (AVI,MFX.JPF,WAV,MP3, verbundene Aftereffects-Kompositionen etc.) im selben Stammverzeichnis (mit mehreren Unterverzeichnissen) sind. Wenn ich nun die Festplatte mit dem entsprechenden Projekt an einen anderen Computer anschliesse und das Premiere-Projekt wieder öffnen möchte, findet Premiere die Footage-Dateien nicht mehr. In stundenlanger Handarbeit muss ich die dann jede einzelne Footagedatei wieder zuordnen (Medien verbinden). Das kanns doch nicht sein!!! Was mache ich falsch? Wo zum Teufel speichert Premiere die Dateizuordnungen ab? Das Löschen der Common-Cachedateien führt übrigens auch nicht zum gewünschten Resultat. Mit der Funktion "Projektmanager" komme ich auch nicht weiter, da dann verbundene Aftereffects-Kompositionen und MXF-Filmdateien (von meiner EX1) NICHT archiviert werden, d.h. die fehlen dann im Projekt. Ich habe sämtliche möglichen Einstellungen durchprobiert. Es funzt nicht!!! Also-hier nochmals meine einfache Frage in Kurzform: Wie kann man komplexe Premiere-Projekte archivieren, um sie später auf einem anderen Computer (auf welchem die CS4 Suite installiert ist) wieder problemlos zu öffnen.

Christoph,
Glad to see your English is good, because it makes for a broader audience for your questions.
It is a make or break condition that drive letter and directory structure are absolutely identical on both systems.
Let us know if that helped.

How do I get Vio Pov.1 (helmetcam) footage to work with Premiere CS4?

Hi.
I'm having the same problems as this guy: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b78c2b/7 with video from the Vio Pov.1 not playing in premiere. Although his topic is already there I made a new topic to get some fresh hits and try to resolve this once and for all. Also because I make some reference to Canon Ixus video files.
I have run the codec-analyzer g-spot on one of the pov.1 video files and it states that I have the proper codec installed.
Codecs in video clip:
Video: XviD ISO MPEG-4 @ 3101kbps 720*480
Audio: 0x0050 MPEG-1 Layer 2 @ 32000Hz 64 kb/s , Monophonic
Still no luck playing/editing them in Premiere CS4. Audio plays fine, video shows but frame is only updated every 4-5 seconds and not the actual frame that corresponds to that point in the audio but actually the next frame from the first one. It continues like that.
Specs:
Running Vista 32 bit and Adobe Master Collection CS4
Quad-core 2,4GHz
4GB ram (i know, only about 3 to 3,5GB utilized in 32 bit OS.)
Nvidia 8800GT 512mb
74GB WD Raptor as system/adobe software drive.
500GB Samsung spinpoint throuch E-sata as project drive.
The wierd thing is this:
I have a separate system drive with windows xp installed, Adobe Master collection CS3 fully updated and NO other software. (same computer)
Differance between CS3 and CS4:
CS3,no codec pack:
- Canon ixus video files WORK
- Vio Pov.1 reported as audio only, not even thumbs showing FAIL
CS3, ffdshow codec pack installed(ffdshow-rev2180_20081004_xxl)
- Canon ixus: WORKS
- Vio Pov.1: WORKS
CS4 on vista, relatively fresh install, fully updated, no codes packs.
- Canon ixus: FAIL
- Vio Pov.1: FAIL (video)
CS4, same as above with ffdshow installed:
- Canon ixus: FAIL
- Vio Pov.1: FAIL (video)
CS4, same as above with morgan mjpeg codec installed:
- Canon ixus: WORKS (yay!)
- Vio Pov.1: FAIL (obviously as it's not mjpeg)
Someone with some insight into these things, please point me in the right direction. Does anyone have experience with managing video settings within the ffdshow interface? I'm not experienced enough to tweak all the settings.
The current project Im working on is a small web clip shot with a Panasonic HDC-SD100 and the Vio Pov.1. It's a short rally on ice clip I'm looking to produce the panasonic video files are NOT supportet in CS3 even with codec packs.
CS3=
panasonic: no!
vio-pov1: yes!
CS4:
Panasonic: yes!
Vio-pov1: no!
See my problem?
I added the Canon ixus comparison since I previously had problems with it but have now solved them. Also to show that Adobe seem to have cut support for certain formats when moving on to CS4. It has taken me a looong time figuring out how to get ixus working in premiere because I'm not used to this stuff.
The ideal solution is not having to convert clips before using them so I would like to focus on that avenue. After all it finally worked with the ixus clips so I have hopes that eventually a solution can be found for the Pov.1 clips which is also more widely spread and used in proper productions.
Im very sorry for the format of this post, and the length. I just had to get it out there to see if someone can help me.

Thank you Stanley and Bill for your input.
Sorry for checking the topics progress so late.
Bill, could I ask what specific software you are using for this batch conversion task?
Like I stated in my first post I am able to edit the Pov.1 material when plugging in my secondary HD with Xp and CS3 on it. So I can fiddle about with that as well but if you could supply me with the name of your software it would save me all that time swapping harddrives back and fourth. There are so many out there, would like to eliminate risk of malware and such by using the software you have.
(reminder, cs3 does not do AVCHD, #1 of many reasons why I prefer cs4)
I'm still testing various xvid/mpeg4 settings with ffdshow and other codecs, I'm still determined to find a solution, for everyone. After all, it CAN run under CS3.
I have also submitted the case to Adobe. Hoping to hear from them soon. Anyone else care to throw some thoughts in?
Thanks again for the input so far,
Johannes

Can you help me with this Premiere CS4 error? (picture included)

Hello
I have Adobe Premiere CS4 and when I recently updated to 4.2.1 many of my videos now do not have playback in the source or edit windows. Some are black screens, and some are turquiose during playback. If I click on the edit window to select the video frame and move it within the edit window (say to the left side) it will play back with a turquoise overlay and show the video behind it enlarged. This ONLY happened when I did the update. I am running Windows 7 64bit. When it was at 4.0.0 everything ran just fine. The video I have been working on is a 1080p .MOV file. Has anyone else seen this? There is a picture of the problem below.
Thanks for any help!

Updates, whether with a program, or the OS from MS (or Apple), can cause all sorts of driver issues. These are most often seen with video and audio drivers. Just a simple OS hot-fix can render these obsolete instantly. Also, some recent nVidia drivers contained some "gamer-only" modules for things like 3D rendering and 3D stereovision for use with nVidia goggles. These seem to have been updated, so that these modules do not bring Adobe programs to their knees.
A couple of XP-Pro hot-fixes messed up my nVidia Quadro in PS. A simple driver update fixed those. I had gone more than 6 mos. with not one problem, and then installed the hot-fixes and BOOM!
Good luck,
Hunt
