Premiere CS4 exporting to MPEG2, changes timeline??

I've been using Premiere CS4 to edit my videos. Once the video is complete I do a file > export > media to use Media Encoder to save the media in various formats, one of them being MPEG2. In the timeline for each video I have 3 seconds of black at the start and 10 seconds at the end. I just noticed today that when I export to MPEG2, the created MPG file has the black trimmed off both ends, and it apparently stretches the video to fill the full time length somehow. So if my show should fade to black at 28:00 normally (as it does on the timeline), with 10 seconds of black until 28:10, when I view the created MPG file the video start immediately instad of waiting 3 seconds, and it will fade out the video at 28:10 and not have my 10 seconds of trailing black. So it must be stretching the whole video to fill in that extra 10 seconds. It only does this with exporting to an MPEG2 file, the AVI and WMV files I export into using the same timeline are fine.
I had never noticed this before on the 20+ shows I've previously exported, I never even thought about going back and checking out the actual end time for the MPG versions because it was fine on other formats. Apparently this is something not isolated to this computer I'm using because I went back to my old laptop and did an export the same way on an old video and it did the same thing. I'm stumped.
Any help on how to be able to export to an MPEG2 file exactly what I have on the timeline like the other formats do would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Ann,
The sequence length is the same in Premiere as it is when I play it in media player. They both clock in at 28:10, but the exported mpg plays differently somehow. When I play it on the sequence my show fades to black at exactly 28:00, and then I have 10 seconds of black, that’s how I want it to be. When I play the exported mpg file in media player it doesn’t fade out the show until 28:10, and there’s no 10 seconds of black at the end, it just ends after the fade out. The software appears to be stretching the video to make 28:00 of video fit into a 28:10 length file, but since 10 seconds over 28 minutes isn’t that much it’s not noticeable when I watch it.
I just tried what you said to do… I took the exported MPG and pulled it back into Premiere and played it on the timeline, and it is playing it properly in there with the 10 sec of black at the end and timing it correctly. I don’t get it! It only shows up correct in Premiere, I’ve tried in both WMP and Real player and they’re doing the same thing. But my avi and wmv version exports all play properly in WMP. Very strange!
Thanks for your help.

Premiere CS4 export Mpeg2 setting

i use Premiere CS4 and i am a leisure user.
1. when i export mpeg2, the video is 800m file sze
    if i export to DVD, the files (video + audio) are 240m
   as i know DVD is mpeg2, what's wrong with the setting on huge file size difference?
   i need a small size mpeg2 file.
2. can i edit vob directly? it is very time-consuming to convert vob to avi and then edit.
3. when i used premiere pro before, it has function to export DVD directly at premiere.
    but now CS4 need to revert to Encore. Any fast track?
4. i alway have corrupted cache when importing avi files. i need to remove cache and import again until it is ok
   any way i can do it better or less error.
5. any fast method to simply cut the movie, not do any change of resolution, codec....
Thanks a lot in advance. i have lots of question.

Unfortunately, you've posted to the Premiere, and not the Premiere Pro forum. This is for a program that predates the "Pro" designation. Maybe the MOD's will move this for you, so you'll get more traffic.
Now, let's see if I can address some of your questions:
As for the MPEG-2, it is most likely that the larger file has a much higher bit-rate. What are the settings between your Exported MPEG-2 and those in the Transcoded file? That is the common difference.
As for editing .VOB's, if they are 100% DVD-compliant (very important), then CS4.1 can Import and edit. These still have the MPEG-2 compression, but should work fine. If those .VOB's were created by Encore, then changes are almost 100% certain, that you can edit them. If not, then the odds go down, and quickly. See this ARTICLE on .VOB's.
Export to DVD directly, went away with CS3. The included Encore is much, much better, and is the way to go. There is also a forum for it.
I've never had a corrupted cache, and cannot help here.
If you have DV-AVI Type II material as source, you can edit until the cows come home, and Export to DV-AVI Type II with no noticable degredation. Other formats/COCE's not so much. Here, it just depends.
Good luck,
Hunt

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.

Need help with Premiere CS4 Export...

I currently shoot HD video with a Canon Vixia HF S10 digital camcorder (link goes to Canon's site). I shoot at the highest quality available, MXP 24 Mbps (1920x1080). When I bring the video over to my machine, it comes over as an .mts file which is the AVCHD file format (link goes to Wikipedia article on the format). I import these .mts files into Adobe Premiere (CS4). I import them into a AVCHD 1080p30 (29.97) Sequence. I do my editing, adding title screens, music, whatever. The problem comes when I go to export the final product into a usable format. I've tried all different sorts of formats to export to and I can't get any usable results. If I select, for instance, H.264 HDTV 1080p 29.97 High Quality (a preset within Premiere) the video comes out extremely choppy...as in the audio will play and the video will hitch along and be mostly out of sync dropping whole sections of the video as it tries to catch up.
My end goal is to be able to export two versions...a higher quality (maybe burned to a DVD or Blu-Ray) and a lower quality (but still HD) for uploading to YouTube/SmugMug.
Any help or thoughts anyone may have would be greatly appreciated.

Premiere CS4 - Export is Fuzzy, Display is Clear - need help

I'm on a MacBook Pro, and running Premiere Pro CS4.
I need to export a Quicktime (.mov) with h.264 at 1280 x 720.
This is a quick edit, so I'm just piecing together a .PNG photo (opening), another .mov file (the main file), and then a closing graphic (that is also .mov).
So, the main file is 1280 x 720, FPS is 23.98. The video is clear and crisp. When I import into my project, the video is also clear and perfect.
The closing graphic is similar size, but FPS is 29.97. It's a .mov file.
These are the project settings:
Editing Mode: Desktop
Timebase: 29.97 frames/second
Frame size: 1280 x 720
Square Pixels
Progressive Scan
Display format: 30 fps Dro-Frame Timecode
Video Preview: Quicktime
Codec: H.264
In my timeline and in the monitor, everything looks crisp and clean. And when I export the file, I have it set at 1280 x 720 Quicktime H.264. (Progressive Scan, 29.97) The preview looks crisp and clear. But after I export it, in the edited version, the video is fuzzy. The words on the opening slate are fuzzy.
And the end slate does not render properly. There are lines that run across it and it's very pixalated.
I'm new at Adobe Premiere. So I am a beginner at all this. If you could help me figure out what I am doing wrong, I'd be grateful.

Premiere CS4 Export Problems

I have been having some problems with exporting a video with Premiere/Media Encoder CS4. Here is the file type - .mov SD widescreen and HV30 .m2t HD files. In a 720p sequence. The first problem was that it will not export any image file types. Next when I try to export certain file types it has issues - for quicktime and WMV I remember it would not work. The only one that would work was H.264 (I didn't try them all) Any ideas?

Hi,
The usb hard drive is probably too slow to edit with. Most people only use usb drives for storage.
I would suggest you make sure your project file isnt on that drive and would move your assets off that drive into your c drive if thats all you have. You could use and external firewire 800 drive, or esata would be even better. Maybe clear as much space as you can from your c drive and defragment it, make sure your pagefile is set to 1.5 times your memory and try it that way. You really should have only program files on your c drive, projects files on a 2nd drive and assets on a 3rd drive...and drives should be only about 1/2 full...
There's threads here about how to set up your system for editing.. especially in the hardware forum.
I personally only have two internal drives with programs on c drive and projects and assets on 2nd drive. The 2nd drive is 1Terabyte 7200rpm ( pagefile on 2nd drive also )...the drive is about 3 percent full....as I only have little SD projects on it now...and I dont even try to edit HD stuff...as my computer is not powerful enough.
using CS3...
I have an intel dual core 2.6 ghz, 4gig ram, windows xp, 2 hard drives sata, 7200rpm. If I edit more than a couple minutes of HD with transitions my computer starts to slow up so much its retarded to even try to edit that....

Premiere CS4 - Exporting to Quicktime prores?? Help!!

Hi there,
I am still a relative novice when it comes to all the exporting formats/codecs out there. I have been asked by a client to deliver files for broadcast in the Quicktime prores format... I tried to find it in Premiere but couldn't. My footage is 1440x1080 29.97fps filmed on a Canon XH-A1 and captured through HDV Split.
What do I do??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You don't mention (you should!) but are you on Windows?
If Windows, I don't think you can export to Apple Prores

Premiere CS4 exported videos for ipod all show black screen when played

Hi,
I am trying to export a video for an ipod from an mp4 source file.
The project settings are set to ipod and so are the export settings. I get a normal video file (mp4) with the right resolution etc. The sync with itunes works without problems and i get the right thumbnail of the video in the Ipod menu.
But when i try to play the video i only get a black screen, the timer is running and i have sound.
I think i have tried all the possible settings. None of them worked.
Can you help me? Where is the problem?
Thank you

export to a regular .wmv file, or any other type you want.
now use a program like this one:
http://www.imtoo.com/ipod-movie-converter.html
If you have deep pockets you can try Sorenson Squeeze.
or you can try this one
http://www.xilisoft.com/ipod-video-converter.html
unfortunately this doesn't solve your problem the way you wish. ( a free fix )
I'd do a good Google search for answers, with some good keywords, and you may find
a solution that won't cost you anything.

Premiere CS4 doesn't work properly with Windows 7 trial - Please help!

Hello!
I have installed the trial version of Windows 7 on my laptop and now my Premiere CS4 doesn't play the timeline in real time anymore. It worked fine with Windows Vista. I have also installed the newest Premiere update, but it didn't help. Is there a patch for Windows 7 (64bit) or will I have to wait until the full version comes out and try it again then?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Rafiki

It's a laptop and probably an older one, that means it is probably underpowered.
It's a laptop and that probably means it is a single 5400 rpm disk which is inadequate.
Bill,
Probably good observations. I tend to loose sight of the fact that most laptops are not like mine and forget the common limitations. One mentions "laptop," and I see my Sager - duh! on me.
To the OP, this ARTICLE might also offer some tips on getting your computer ready for an NLE session. Common references are to how things are done in XP-Pro (my OS), but you should be able to "read between the lines," and adapt the general concepts to Win7 and your setup.
Also, giving full specs. on your laptop might help greatly, otherwise we're all just guessing. Bill brings up a couple of critical points. Your details will either point to them, or dismiss them.

How to export timeline sequence to .vob in premiere cs4?

Hi All,
I am new to premiere cs4,
earlier i used premire 6.5 for video editing.
in premiere 6.5 for exporting video i had used procoder 2.0
after procoder instalation it comes as plug in premiere 6.5 by using procoder i can export timeline as my desired video format.
but now this procoder is not working in premiere cs4
after i installed procoder it is not showing in premiere cs4.
i tried export option in premiere cs4 but it has no .vob option for export
now how can i export timeline sequence as .vob file and
how can i work with procoder in premiere cs4? is there any chance to install procoder in premiere cs4?
Thanks,
Murali.

I agree with John T. Normally, the creation of a VOB (Video Object) container is done in an authoring app., like Adobe Encore, which he mentioned. Up through Premiere Pro 2.0, there were limited authoring capabilities, built in. However, with PrPro CS 3, those were removed, and all authoring functions were provided with Encore, which has shipped with PrPro, ever since.
Now, the VOB is just a container. It will have mostly the MPEG-2 DVD AV file, which can span several VOB's, which are only ~1GB in size. The first VOB might also contain the DVD Menus, and navigation instructions, all of which can only be ~ 1GB. If those elements are less, then the first part of the MPEG-2 DVD AV file will be in there also.
While I do not know one, there are probably utilities available, that can wrap an MPEG-2 DVD AV file into a VOB. Still, you have Adobe Encore, and it can do that, plus a whole lot more, so just finding a program to wrap the MPEG is likely a waste of time, unless you have other, very specific needs.
To utilize Encore, you have basically three ways (as of PrPro CS 3 and up) to accomplish that:
You can use ADL (Adobe Dynamic Link) to Import your Sequences/Timelines directly to Encore.
You can Export a DV AVI file, then Import that into Encore.
You can Export an MPEG-2 DVD file, then Import that into Encore.
Good luck, and if you do have some other, specific needs for the VOB container, let us know, as someone might have suggestions for that.
Hunt
PS - If you do go the Encore route, and are not familiar with that program, I strongly recommend the very good, and very active Adobe Encore Forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/encore/encore_general

Premiere CS4 to Encore CS4 Export Quality Problems

I recently purchased a non-linear editing machine with an RTX2 Matrox Card and CS4 Professional. After six or seven projects, I finally noticed that all my imported .avi files exported through Adobe Media Encoder and burned through Encore CS4 are not as crisp, sharp, or look like the original high quality SD footage after the DVD is burned like it always used to look in CS2. ( jumped from CS2 to CS4)
These DVDs were of plays, football, and basketball games. It seems that when the camera shoots a close up, the video looks fine but after you shoot from a distance, there is a considerable difference in the footage. ( alomost blurry) I just caught this and nobody has complained but I watched one of my older DVDs I produced with CS2 and it had no quality loss whatsoever. There is a night and day difference
For the sequences, I am using Matrox SD, NTSC, Standard, 720 x 486 and capturing with firewire through the Matrox card. The raw footage is beautiful. The Video Preview Option is NTSC Standard and the Codec is NTSC Matrox DV/DV Cam.
I can playback a timeline from the Matrox card and burn directly to a DVD burner and the footage is perfect, but when I export, I have chosen Microsoft .avi file, Matrox DV/DV Cam/ MPEG2, and MPEG2DVD.
I have even changed the sequences codec to Matrox MPEG-2 I-Frame and tried exporting using that out of Adobe Media Encoder and am getting the same results.
None of my customers have complained yet, but I definitely do not want to continue producing almost blurry DVDs.
I am using Adobe Premiere CS4 Version 4.1.0 and Encore CS4 Version 4.0.1.048 and Matrox Version 4.1.0.23
Can this problem be related to and eliminated by updating my CS4 Production Suite and my Matrox Software.
I was wondering if anyone had experienced this same issue and what solution they came up with or if anyone knew if the updates would correct this important issue. I just filmed a lengthy play that I have to author through Encore CS4 and I cannot release any more of my productions until this problem is solved. This is a big dollar production and I need some assistance on this matter as soon as possible. Thanks Jimi White

Thanks for taking the time to help me out. I just purchased my non-linear with CS4 Production Suite and the Matrox RTX2. I have several projects that I am working on right now and I was advised by Adobe, Matrox, and my non-linear vendor, 1 Beyond, to finish those projects before performing updates.
I also found out that If I export using the MPEG2 8Mbps, it cleared up the video dramatically. We had to go through a number of export presets in order to find out what worked best in Encore. I am going to try to finish the project now and will advise on the results.
This is a basketball highlight DVD and that's when I noticed the problem. My other productions were photos to music, and non sporting events and I didn't notice any problems with those DVDs ( they actually looked decent. Worst part about it was, I finished the project once and burned 18 DVDs, and then reviewed one of them and found the problem. I have to start over and just eat the DVDs printed and all.
Thanks again, it was nice of you to get back to me.

Premiere Pro CS4 Export fails with Media Encoder CS4 "Encoding Failed"," Could Not Read From Source.

There has never been a history of Adobe CS3 installation on the brand new MAC Pro I am using prior to installing Master Collection CS4, despite other posts claiming that chief cause of this issue is a previous CS3, Beta or trial installations of previous versions. I simply had a straightforward installation of CS4 and have had trouble since day 1.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Master CS4 three times, two times with the action script cleaner for CS4. I tried changing Adobe Cache folder locations to alternative drives. I ran shift start many times to correct any inconsistencies and corrected for permissions using disk utilities repeatedly. All updates have been installed and I am still getting the same error when exporting my timeline to Media Encoder CS4, be it a large High Definition project or a small one consisting of few stills.
No matter what presets I chose, the job appears as one of the items in the render qeuee of Media Encoder CS4 and sits there with the status WAITING until i hit Start Queue. When I do, it still says WAITING under Status and at the bottom corner of the window it reads : Loading "project name.prproj" and after an average of about 6 minutes, a yellow caution sign appears. No render whatsoever takes place. When I click on the yellow caution sign, it reads a log of all errors in connection with each job, including the ones that have gone before it. Here is one:

Please any gurus out there know how to troubleshoot this damn thing on Mac, I really appreciate it. I have not yet encountered any posts of Mac owners with no previous CS3 installation having this issue. I am in the middle of 3 projects with tight deadlines and need your urgent help. THANK YOU!

Hello There,
I resolved the issue through a simple process of elimination. So simple in fact I wonder how I missed it. Since there has been no history of prior CS3 installation on this machine and every conceivable trick was applied to resolve the problem (refer to my original post earlier in the thread) ending in frustration, the problem had to reside in a factor or series of factors that were only present in this machine. Of the two remaining causes different in compare to other machines, I had to look into the possibility of any hardware and/or software conflicts. After all, this very same installation works perfectly fine on my colleague's Apple Macbook Pro and several Windows machines.
It turns out that I had installed Pro Tools on this machine that comes with all kinds of optional plug-ins in the so called ignition pack. One of these optional plug-ins is called IZOTOPE (three varieties include Spectron, Trash and another one that escapes my mind). They were all lite version licenses that would automatically pop up on their own when you would start a program where they had been residing. One such program where an association existed was indeed the Premiere. An annoying dialogue box directing you to buy the full version when you would start the premiere would refuse to go away. Sometimes it would even start on its own culminating in a a permanent dialogue box.
The cause of the problem was right before my eyes and I had overlooked it. Once uninstalled using IZOTOPE clean uninstaller on step 4, the problem was resolved. Projects are now loading very fast into the AME and encoding begins in earnest. I have never had any issues ever since.
Long story short, if you have any plug-ins specially the ones that are loading upon the start of any program or the ones that reside inside the premiere or the ones that start on their own independently, they could be one of the highly probable causes of this error. I have seen other similar posts complaining of plug in folders inside premiere that needed to be moved to resolve the issue for instance the ones that needed to be moved to AE folders. If you are a plug-in admirer, I would suggest to look into them seriously.
On the side note, many combination and causes may lead to the same error. I am not claiming that this is the solution for everyone.
It must also be noted that I applied the trick of creating a shortcut of Premiere (and naming it exactly as such) and dropped it into the Adobe Dynamic LInk folder (even though this was suggested for windows)and have changed the adobe Cache locations to an alternative folder on a separate drive. I haven't been able to establish conclusively if the latter steps are also essential in fixing the error on MAC but I can confirm that since the latter steps were taken before the uninstalling of Izotope plug-ins and i still had issues, probably uninstalling those plug ins or finding a way to move them to a place where they don't interfere (if you absolutely need to keep them) is the one essential step that solved the problem.
Hope this helps.

How to Mix Export and Burn 5.1 Surround in Premiere CS4

Ok I'm attempting my first 5.1 mix in Premiere CS4. I have a couple of basic questions about mixing and exporting in 5.1.
I have created my 5.1 master sequence in premiere and have broken out my 5.1 track to 6 mono audio files. Right now they are all .wma with a very high bitrate because that's the only format I was able to rip off the Blu-ray disc I'm experimenting with. I have also learned to change my audio hardware to run off of my Matrox Driver to utilize my hardware for my matrox axio LE. The end result I'm trying to produce is a 720p 23.967fps H.264 Blu-ray disc with 5.1 sound.
Questions:
Should I use wma files for audio or something else? At first I noticed a little bit of a lag in performace before switching my audio hardware to the Matrox Driver.
Do I have to use Dolby Surcode upon export to burn in Encore? When I first upgraded to premiere CS4 I used my 3 free encodes while testing our the program, is there any way to get them back?
When importing the Audio into Encore is there anything special I need to do or can I just drop the Dolby 5.1 track onto the timeline as I would normally with at stereo track?

Should I use wma files for audio or something else?
PCM WAV 16 bit stereo @ 48 KHz.
Do I have to use Dolby
Surcode upon export to burn in Encore? When I first upgraded to
premiere CS4 I used my 3 free encodes while testing our the program, is
there any way to get them back?
Yes, no.
When importing the Audio
