Premiere Interpreting Same Filetype Differently

I'm working on a MACPRO 2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon with 16GB of RAM. I am working over a network via 10Gbe fiber connected to a main Storage Array and am working on CS6. I am creating cutdowns of weekly hourlong podcasts and then exporting them for the web. A description of my current workflow (simplified for purposes of troubleshooting)is:
1. Ingest MP4 footage
2. Create a sequence which requires nesting mulitple hour long clips
3. Export that edited sequence as an mp4 compressed further for youtube.
Prior to today the final encode has been taking 1.5hours. Today the encode is taking 5 hours. I have been checking to see what's different and the only thing that I have come up with is that one of the files of today's footage is getting imported as a quicktime movie while the last time around the footage was getting imported as an mpeg movie. When you select the properties of last week's and this week's file in premiere, this is in fact the case. Plus, the quicktime one is actually a "quicktime reference." There seems to be no way to get Premiere to import it a different way. What I don't understand is that both files are approximately the same size (give or take a few minutes) and when you pull up the info on the files in VLC or Quicktime both formats and settings are IDENTICAL. So the two questions I have are:
1. Could the fact that premiere thinks one file is a quicktime be the reason why today's encode was 5 times longer?
2. What could possibly be different about these two files that appear identical in format and wrapper?
Thanks in advance for any insight.

Josh,
Welcome to the forum.
This is but a wild guess on my part, but unless I mixed things up, it's the QT Reference, that is taking the longer to process. That guess is that PrPro is needing to "fill in the blanks," on the Reference File. Why one, nearly identical file would show MPEG, and the other QT Reference, is a mystery to me.
Also, I'm a PC-guy, but do work with a lot of MOV files from outside contractors (mainly 3D animators), but I specify MOV Animation, and those work just fine.
I hope that others will have something useful for you, beyond my guesses.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • How do I make my animation look the same in different browsers?

    Hi!
    When I play my animation in different browsers it don't look the same as in the preview. In IE some of the parts of the animation have disappeared and in Chrome the pats are no longer in their right places. See picture below.

    Ah, found the issue, the problem is with the name of the two images,
         genomförande    (instead you can use genomforande)
         Grå bakgrund     (instead you can use grabakgrund)
    Seems like IE is having issue with those special characters.

  • Create a new branch On same OR different Client

    Dear Experts,
    Can anyone tell me the advantages and disadvantages of same vs different client, from FI & CO view, as we are having a new foreign branch in another country, should we use the same client or a different client?
    For e.g.:
    Client 100 Company A - present
    Client 100 Company B - new
    OR
    Client 100 Company A - present
    Client 200 Company B - new
    Regrads,
    Mohammad

    Hi Mohammed,
    It would be better to choose the first option ie, choosing the same client. Please refer the attachment which deals with this topic.

  • Does the object in BO repository the same in different BO version?

    Hi Guys,
    Does the object in BO repository the same in different BO version or in different type of Database?
    One of my customer said that the objects(index, procedure, table ,view, etc..) are different between their TEST and PRO environments.
    Your help is appriciated.
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Daniel

    Hello Daniel,
      The BO repository or CMS database has a different database structure between versions of the CMS database.  So if you have BO XIR2 versus XIR3, then they  have different database structures.  If the customers has a one version of XIR2 in TEST and it is a  different version like XIR3.1 in PRO environment then that would make sense. Each version of the XIR1, XIR2, XIR3 has a different database structures for the CMS database.   I hope this answers your question.

  • Same format, different content?

    I'm preparing to create 12 DVD masters for duplication. All the DVD's will have an identical format, but different content, and I want them to all behave the same way.
    Each DVD will have 2 menus, 14 songs with singalong lyrics, and 2 "wallpaper" graphic stills.
    I want to build the first one, using generic titles for the files (song01, song02, wallpaper01, etc.). I'd like to then use that as a format for the following 11 DVD's by giving the new files the same names, and then typing in the new titles in the menu buttons.
    Is this a do-able approach, or will I need to build each DVD from scratch?

    You should be fine, (unless you are using stories or
    markers which are based on time and the new assets
    are different lengths or menus different layouts .
    The songs will have different lengths, and there will be 4 "medleys" of 5 songs each which will have markers where each new song starts. Juding from your comments, it sounds like that will negate repeating filenames with assetts that have different lengths and marker positions.
    Dang.
    The menu layouts will be the same, with different song titles for the buttons.

  • Premiere - Interpret Premult Alpha

    Hi there quick question. I noticed that Premiere interprets Straight alpha channels properly, but Premults have the dreaded halo around it. When I right click the master file and click 'interpret footage' I don't have the option (like in AE) to interpret it as Straight or Premult. It seems like I can only disable or invert it. Is there a way to properly interpret Premult alphas in Premiere? The only fix I have found is doing a 'send to AE' in the sequence and then interpreting in there, once it links back it's totally fine, but this is probably not the best answer.
    I am running CC 2014, and just to clarify Premiere reads transparency for both, it's only a matter of interpreting them correctly
    Any help appreciated thanks!

    Hi,
    Thanks for responding and getting back to me guys  
    @ Fuzzy...Trust me... I didn't think it would work...it didn't make sense to me either but I misunderstood Gerry...he doesn't know that I am operating exclusively on a PC using only PC based software...I don't have a MAC.
    @ Kevin...as you have garnered by now I can't use APPLE MOTION because I am on a PC.  I used Sorenson Squeeze to convert the file to an Animation File.   For hours I tried importing and manipulating it in Premiere AND in After Effects with No luck whatsoever.  I tried everything I could think of.
    It is a virtual set and I was given 2 files:
    Per instructions from a video tutorial on YouTube titled:  "Adobe Premiere Tutorial Set  Alpha Matte" I successfully excuted the instructions but the ALPHA STILL DIDN'T WORK:
    File #1)  The alpha.mov file is on VIDEO LAYER 3: > I placed a Channel> Set Matte> set to "Use For Matte" > Luminance on the VIDEO LAYER 3 alpha.mov file > Take Matte From Layer> VIDEO LAYER 2
    File #2)  The fullHD.mov file is on VIDEO LAYER 2
    Should I send you the file to take look at Kevin?
    Thanks again

  • Same query different timings , different sessions at the same time

    I am running exactly the same query from 2 different sessions almost simultaneously and in one session it is taking 2 seconds and in the other it is taking 20 seconds. The explain plans in both the sessions (by set autotrace on) are exactly the same. The timing is almost same for succesive runs of the query in the same sessions. That is when I run the query again in the "slow session" it is always around 20 seconds and when I run the query again in the "fast session" it is always fast. The queries are being run within a few seconds of each other so the load on the database is almost same.
    My hunch is that it is a database parameter that needs to be changed to solve this problem, can someone guide me with this ....which parameters I should ask our DBAs to adjust ? Our database is Oracle 10G.

  • Same Problem - Different Scenario: Encountering Problems running Mac OS X c

    Same Problem - Different Scenario: Encountering Problems running Mac OS X commands.
    Hi. I'm having a weird experience on opening document using
    the Microsoft word 2008 application in MAC OS X.
    To be specific on what is the scope of my application.
    What I'm trying to do is run or simulate my application on appletviewer on a certain pop-up HTML
    document. The first part of my statement block on my code doing well on
    executing the downloading process of a file and save it on local machine.
    This portion of works fine.
    But the thing that I'm having some difficulties is
    whenever i Re-opened the downloaded file from my local machine
    that is being downloaded from my server.
    I'm trying to established a checking or triggering pattern that the
    file from my local machine was modified or not.
    doing this execution I'm using the following code below to figure it out:
    java code:
    portion of calling the trigger part
    if((nMacEditMode = editFileViaMac(clientFile)) == 1)
    baseApplet.addMsg("Opened and edited file on local machine ...");
    else
    if(nMacEditMode == 3)
    baseApplet.addMsg("Opening and editing of file on local machine failed! Try again!!");
    else
    baseApplet.addMsg("No changes made. Server file unchanged! You may close this window.");
    portion of the runtime execution of opening the file via MAC OS X
    public int editFileViaMac(String wordFileName)
    try
    String cFile = wordFileName.trim().replaceAll(" ", "\\ ");
    wordPath = wordPath.trim().replaceAll(" ", "\\ ");
    Process wordProcess =null;
    Date startTime;
    Date endTime;
    File wordFile = new File(cFile);
    startTime = new Date(wordFile.lastModified());
    String[] myCommand = { "open", "-a", wordPath, wordFile.getAbsolutePath(), "-W" };
    wordProcess = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(myCommand);
    wordProcess.waitFor();
    endTime = new Date(wordFile.lastModified());
    if (startTime.before(endTime))
    return 1;
    return 2;
    catch(Exception ex)
    baseApplet.addMsg("Method Error : editFileViaMac() - "+ex.getMessage());
    ex.printStackTrace();
    return 3;
    Now the weird things happen here.
    The file was able to opened- as I wanted to, but when a made changes or not doing anything.
    The Microsoft Word 2008 application on the MAC Activity Monitor. The instance was still alive or
    keep running and I execute MAC commands being implement on the Process on the Terminal and it still
    stuck in that thing. which means I have to manually kill the process of the said application on
    the GUI part of Task Manager of MAC and my 2nd statement on the if replies.
    Any thoughts will glady appreciated.

  • Synergy bug: incorrectly interprets same phone number with different area codes as one number

    I sync with Google.  I have a contact that has two numbers for which the exchange and the number are the same, but the area codes are different, e.g., (517) 123-4567 and (773) 123-4567.  On the Pre, the page for that contact will only show one of those numbers.
    If I touch Edit, both numbers are in there.  Of course, that doesn't help, because you can't dial from the Edit page.
    Sprint tech support was unable to resolve it, and I tried to contact Palm Support via chat, but the LogMeIn Rescue module required for the chat wouldn't download for me either in IE or Firefox.  Any idea how to get this resolved?
    Thanks!
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    I had unbelieveable problems with the synergy feature trying to synch my contacts from Google.  Palm (or I guess HP now) won't admit it publically, but the synergy feature acts in ways they have no clue of how to resolve.
    I suggested to them that they should have an Synergy On/Synergy Off choice for the users.  They said they had no plans to do that.
    I switched to a DROID2 Smartphone from Motorola, and now everything is working perfectly!!
    Love the new phone.

  • The iTune Remote App has stopped finding my iTunes library when connected to wifi from my main router, but works fine when connected via second wifi router on the same network (different SSID)

    I'm running iTunes Remote App from a couple of iPhone 5's and a first generation iPod Touch. iTunes is running on a PC - Windows 7. My home network runs two Wifi Routers, each with a different SSID. I've had no problems with the Remote app running this set up for the last 8 months but recently the App can only find my iTunes library when the iPhone/iPod is connected via one specific router, when connected to the network via the other router, no iTunes library is found. I'm also running an Apple TV and it's the same as the iTunes Library, only visible via the one SSID.
    Everything else seems to work fine when connected via either router, eg Internet on the iPhones (definitely via wifi)
    I've tried renewing the lease on the iPhone wifi connection, restarting everything.....several times.....
    It used to work fine, this only seems to have been a problem in recent weeks
    Any help or advice would be much appreciated
    Thanks
    Ian

    It turned out to be the firewall settings on our router. Her machine was sending traffic that our router interpreted as a DoS attack and blacklisted her Airport's MAC address. That's why it would work fine if she switched to Ethernet.

  • Same IDoc, different communication channels for receiver

    Hi,
    In my file-to-IDoc scenario I need to send the same IDoc type to 2 different receiver channels. But these channels are created in the same service, and also the sender service is the same in both cases, so I cannot create two receiver agreements (one per channel).
    I've tried to create a message interface with the IDoc as message type, allowing me to create two receiver agreement this way. But then sxmb_moni shows a kind of error like this:
    "IDOC_ADAPTER">ATTRIBUTE_WRONG_INTF
    Unable to interpret IDoc interface
    I've been searching in the forum, but I couldn't find anything useful for this issue. Can you help me with this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Paco.

    hi,

  • Same clip, different lengths in CS3 and CS4?

    I'm trying to fix a problem I'm having importing my CS3 project into CS4 and I noticed that the clip lengths in the properties windows do not match for my files. For example, if I open my clip in CS3 (where it was originally edited) it shows it this:
    File Path: F:TapesTape 24Scene 018 - Ally & Paul Coffee (9).m2t
    Type: MPEG Movie
    File Size: 365.4 MB
    Image Size: 1440 x 1080
    Pixel Depth: 1440
    Frame Rate: 29.97
    Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
    Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
    Total Duration: 00;01;54;14
    Average Data Rate: 3.2 MB / second
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.333
    But in CS4 the properties show up as this:
    File Path: F:TapesTape 24Scene 018 - Ally & Paul Coffee (9).m2t
    Type: MPEG Movie
    File Size: 365.4 MB
    Image Size: 1440 x 1080
    Pixel Depth: 32
    Frame Rate: 29.97
    Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
    Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
    Total Duration: 00;01;53;08
    Average Data Rate: 3.2 MB / second
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.3333
    What would cause this discrepancy? I shot at 30f on a Canon XH-A1. My project settings in CS4 are HDV 1080p30. Do I have the wrong settings? How could the same clip be of two different lengths. I'm so confused!
    Please respond only if you have a suggestion. I am not looking for comments about how I shouldn't switch programs midstream. I would like some honest help, however!
    Thanks!

    I've got a couple suggestions.
    First would be to see if its a problem with the import or a just a difference in how CS3 and CS4 reads the files. If you import one of .m2t files directly into CS4 and not through importing the project, does it give you the same info as you listed above? (I'm assuming the file info above was derived from importing the project and then looking at the file's info.) If it is correct when independently brought into premiere, then the problem lies with importing a CS3 project and I would suggest trying to unlink then link your media. If there is no difference, then it's something else.
    Second suggestion is to export an EDL out of CS3. Then, instead of importing your CS3 project into CS4, import the EDL and see if this resolves your edit points.
    One note I've noticed with the EDL's in premiere, they don't import well when generated in framecount mode, but work fine in timecode mode (in CS3 this is just what your timeline time indicator mode is set at, right click the time indicator and set it to Timecode. in CS4 this doesn't work and you have to set the Display Format to Timecode under your Project Settings.)
    Good luck.
