Premiere Pro 5.5 timeline timecode question

Does Premiere Pro 5.5 output TC on HD-SDI when using Kona 3. There have been reports by users that when recording the HD-SDI output (like to a Ki Pro Mini) that they are not seeing any Timeline Timcode coming out the spigot. Any Adobe folks or others know if this is true of false?

As a preemptory response...yes I am in touch with AJA engineers as well to try and get an answer to this question

Premiere Pro CS3 - Preset & Media File Questions

Volunteered to create a high school football highlight video using Premiere Pro CS3 on a Mac. The video will be shown in a banquet hall using a NEC projector attached to the ceiling. The hall owner doesn't have any info on the projector, so I don't know its native resolution or any other specs. The screen is standard size.
I'm being given a potpourri of media:
1) The team's game DVDs shot from the press box. MPEG Streamclip shows the VOBs have these properties: 720 × 480, 4:3, 29.97 fps, 9.30 Mbps, upper field first - 128 AC3 2/0, 48 kHz, 256 kbps. Right or wrong, I converted the VOBs to dv files for import into PP with these properties: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, 720 × 480, 4:3, 29.97 fps, 28.77 Mbps - DV stereo, 48 kHz, 28.77 Mbps.
2) Field level video taken with a Canon HV30 (HD, wide screen). The files I've been given are: Apple Intermediate Codec, 960 × 540, 29.97 fps, 30.09 Mbps - 16-bit Big Endian stereo, 48 kHz, 1.54 Mbps. I could ask to have these files recaptured as SD files.
3) Many side line photos (TIFFs) taken with a Canon 30D.
After editing the project, I was planning on exporting the final video/audio as a mov file to be played from my lap top hard drive rather than from a DVD. Not sure about the export settings to do this for best quality.
But first, which PP preset should I use for this project, or should I use custom settings? If so, what should they be?
Have I converted the VOBs to the proper format?
Should I recapture the HV30 footage or convert it to another format?
I have the photos in Lightroom and can export them as TIFFs, JPEGs, PSDs or DNGs and can resize them down if necessary. Any suggestions?
Finally, I was thinking of converting the background music from mp3s to aif files at 48 kHz, 16-bit to be consistent across the different audio files. Any suggestions with the audio?
Any thoughts or suggestions on these issues would be most appreciated. If the answers to these questions hinge on the projector type, I may have to wing it....or buy my own projector. Ouch.
Sorry for the length of this post.

I recommend setting up a 720x480 4:3 project. At the very least, have
them recapture the #2 video files as widescreen SD. (I'll refrain from
making any comments about the usefulness of AIC at half-HD) The
recaptured widescreen SD files will end up letterboxed in your 4:3
timeline. Your other choice would be to set up a 720x480 16:9 project,
but that would end up pillarboxing the 4:3 footage. Your choice.
I think you did a fine job converting the VOBs.
Resize the images in Photoshop. Get them as close to 720x480 as you
can, adjusting that upward to account for any panning and zooming that
you might want to do. But don't increase the size any more than you
have to. You definitely want to avoid working with huge frame-size
images in Pr.
48k 16-bit stereo audio should work just fine.
You should find out the native resolution of the projector, and whether
or not it has an internal scaler.

Premiere Pro: Not Playing Timeline, Not Rendering Full Sequence, Stalling on One Frame

2013 iMac // 10.9.3 // Premiere Pro CC 2014 (latest update)
I have been editing a project for a few days, and it just started giving me issues on my last run through it before exporting.
I have dealt with many problems with PP before, but I honestly don't even know what's going wrong here. I cannot pinpoint the issue. It seems to be a number of things. I started by updating PP and CUDA. Nothing. So I continued.
1) I was having problems rendering, so I figured I'd delete the preview files and start from scratch. When rendering the entire project, it would get to about 60%, then stop and hang there. After five minutes of watching it, I would quit PP. Even though it would look like it had quit, it would still be running in Activity Monitor and the little light underneath it in the dock would be on, so I have to force quit.
2) It was odd because the spot where it stops rendering is the sport where, if I scroll through the timeline, the Program window will freeze on one frame. Then it doesn't matter how much I move the playhead, it won't show any other frames. Nor will the sequence play at all after this. So I'd quit again.
3) I went back to another project and rendered everything in it - fine and dandy.
Why is this giving me such a problem? If anyone needs anything else from me to properly diagnose this, please just say so! Thanks for the help.

Sorry 'bout the time lag. Our new firm just started its first large project, and as the tech geek for the photo-part of it, been kinda busy.
So there's clearly a problem with the project file having gotten corrupted, but ... when it hits the footage it choked on before, it choked again. There's some kind of glitch here that has to to with PrPro interacting with those files. I'm wondering if a file header somewhere has a digit that can confuse PrPro or something? I do recall a couple issues of a similar nature that eventually involved people sending a bit of the nasty footage to an Adobe staffer, who poked through behind the scenes and found something that was not exactly what it might best have been in a header or something. Altered that, PrPro & footage liked each other again, everybody else happy. But that's the sort of ish that one needs experience at ... and I've got none.
There's been times also where people have split a project up ... right on the edge of the Problem. Three parts to their project, in separate project files. First "good" part, and rendered it out as a separate project. Next project, the "troubled" footage that worked by itself, as again its own project, and rendered out. Then the final & also untroubled part, again rendered out. I've heard of both taking those into QuicktimePro (if appropriate codec) and uniting in one continuous piece, I've also heard of people who took three PrPro projects that had been rendered out separately (if I recall one was probably about six parts, a long & complex bugger) and brought those rendered-out parts back in to make a final project with everything in it. In fact, there are a number of people who split their larger projects into chunks, that are finished separately, then combined in a final PrPro project for final polishing as their normal work habit.
Best wishes ...

Premiere Pro CC single app license question

Are Adobe Bridge CC and Adobe Encore CC programs included with Premiere Pro CC single app. license?

MikeG624 Previously Brdge CS6 was a part of several other applications like Photoshop CS6, After Effects CS6, etc. However, now its a seperate application
If you purchase a single app subscription, you will only get that application. However, you will still be able to download Bridge CC from the Cloud website as its a free app.

Premiere Pro to Audition | No Stupid Questions with Colin Smith | Adobe TV

Colin’s back showing off how fantastic his Z800 workstation performs with the new Adobe 5.5 software. In this episode he shows you how to send a complete Premiere Pro sequence to a multitrack project in the new Adobe Audition 5.5. From there he shows how you can add effects to individual clips, or complete tracks with lots of built-in effects or support for VST and AU plug-ins. Once complete, this project can be send back to Premiere Pro CS5.5 or exported to OMF or Final Cut Pro XML.

When exporting to Premiere, do the Track and Clip FX get rendered along with it, or do you have to do something special first?

Need help with 24fps in Premiere Pro CS4

I am having issues working with 24fps imported video. My computer hardware is an AMD dual core processor running at 2.6GHz. It has 2GB of Kingston Hyper-X memory, 2x 300GB hard drives (not RAID), and an Nvidia 7900GS video card with 256MB video ram. My operating system is Windows Vista Ultimate with SP1. I am running Premiere Pro CS4 with all the current updates.
So here is the issue I am having. I captured video on a Canon XL2 in 24fps, 16:9 widescreen, and 2:3:3:2 pulldown. My CS4 project settings were set up as DV-24P Widescreen 48KHz. I did not try changing other settings on the other tabs. I captured the video directly from the XL2 with no dropped frames. The resulting AVI plays back in Windows Media Player 11 correctly. What I mean by that is the is no jerky video, I get no raster lines, and the video quality is very clear. When I load the video into the time line and play it back in the program monitor the video jerks like it is dropping frames, I get raster lines and it looks like video clarity fades in and out.
At first I thought nothing about it. I used Adobe Media Encoder, and burned a DVD. Playback on my widescreen TV looked jerky, rastered, and the video was only clear in static scenes. So I made some test projects with different settings. Still had no success. The original capture looks good, but whatever I do in Premiere the video jerks and looks like old VHS video.
I did another test. I set the XL2 to 30P and 4:3, and captured the video. Again the captured AVI looks good. Put it on the Premiere timeline and played it in the program monitor. It plays fine - good video quality, no rastering, and no jerking. Made a DVD with no problems in the video. So my question is what setting in Premiere do I need to capture, edit, and export 24fps 16:9 widescreen video so that it plays back with with the same video quality as it was captured? Do you think it is an encoder problem? The captured AVI is what ever encoder came with Windows/Premiere as I have not added any other encoders.
Any help would be apperciated. If I have not supplied enough information, please just ask.

If the video is playing back badly in Premiere Pro from the timeline, then the things I would check would be the program monitor quality - is it set to highest...if you don't know where that it is, click on the 4 horizontal lines in the top corner of the program monitor - make sure highest quality is selected. It also may be a video card issue - are your drivers up to date? If the clips are only playing back badly on the PPro timeline (and anything exported from it), but fine in Windows Media Player - something is up.
As for the frame rate - no, you don't have to work at 24P...as mentioned before, the camera actually records at 29.97 fps, but is able to be played back and edited at 23.976 fps (or 24P)...it's a complicated explanation on how it all works...
If you're going to finish to a regular DVD, then working at 29.97 is the way to go. As for the interpret footage command, highlight the clips in your bin, then right click on them - in the menu, you'll see interpret footage - click on that and a new window should open...you should see a box with a check next to it that says remove 24P pulldown - click it (removing the check) and the footage frame rate should change to 29.97 - then click OK...create a 29.97 sequence (DV NTSC Widescreen 48Khz), and edit away.

Switched from Premiere Pro 2.0 to FCP studio 2

and I couldn't be happier!
No crashes
fantastic rendering times
simple work flow
no glitches with Boris continuum
the list goes on....
PLUS
the advantage of working on a mac- which I'd never done before
I have to say it was the best thing I could have done-
this software kicks ***!
I use to be a PC only only guy
editing long form and promos on Premiere Pro, and I got use to the crashes,
the reboots,
the glitches, etc etc\
one day I got ****** and dropped $$$ on a top of the line Intel Mac and its been glorious ever since!
I wanted to write this in the premiere forums but I would **** all those guys off big time.

Here's a big question, and I've been scouring the net for almost 2 months trying to find an answer.
Is it possible to export meta-data Premiere Pro 2.0 timeline sequences to Final Cut 6?
I've recently switched to Mac and with many years of cutting on Premiere Pro I have several projects that are still online that i CAN NOT bear to go back on the PC to finish. Is there anyone else with a solution that will allow me to preserve my edits and work on them in FCP 6.0.2? I've heard of a few rumors for being able to transfer edit information from Avid to FCP.
I do definitely realize the native DV file format (AVI/MOV) and I already have a solution for a large batch conversion.
I realize this may be something that "the management" might not want us to know, but I thought it was worth a try.
Thanks

Premiere Pro CS4 Unusable With Hardware RAID 0

Greetings, This is a mysterious problem I seem to be having, let me tell my tale...
I was using a software RAID0 while editing with Premiere. Even using HD clips, it was very fast! The RAID was only to serve up the footage. Scratch disk and OS disks are on separate drives.
We then upgraded to a Hardware RAID card (3ware) and migrated the data from the old to new drives, everything going fine. Finally get around to opening permiere and the project used to take 2 minutes or so to open, now takes an excruiciating 10-15 minutes! Plus the timeline that I was able to scrub through at a decent speed is basically unusable. I cannot play clips in the timeline either unless I render the preview, where on the software RAID I could play unrendered timelines with no stutters.
Went back to the software raid just to check, and it performed just as fast as before.
Of course I assumed it was a hardware issue. So I contacted 3Ware support and basically they were stumped. Then I moved onto running a whole slew of tests from HDtune on the RAID array. I was getting around 290MBps and very nice random I/O speeds, write speeds were great too. Weird. I could also open up any of my source clips in Quicktime and they would play perfect, and i could seek anywhere in the clip with no hesitation.
Still not satisified, I opened up about 250 clips in Avid MC5, (using AMA linking to make sure it's not some kind of codec thing) and made a lot of short cuts in the timeline. And lo and behold, it is playing like it is a rendered clip, and I can scrub through the timeline perfectly.
This weird HDD activity was then confirmed using a disk monitor. Take a look at the graph: http://www.bubble-engine.com/HDtune.jpg
The low evenly space out bars are activity from using Premiere Pro, when the timeline is unusable. The big solid areas are me using Avid. You can see for some mysterious reason that Premiere isn't accessing the drive properly. But again, on the software RAID Premiere behaves properly.....
Any Ideas?? This is one of the weirdest tech support things I've ever encountered...

when I click the record button, the screen goes to a blue screen with Playing on video hardware
This is normal for HDV.
How do I also get the Scene Detect to work?
With HDV?
Upgrade to CS5.

My Adobe Premiere Pro: Activation Repair Type Help

My software stopped working 12-16-2013, the dialogue box said that my computer was recently reconfigured. I have not re-configured my computer in the last 7 years. I am still using Windows XP and all my original programs. My activation type says Repair 93:21468669244, My computer is a stand-alone, not connected to the net, I just connect when I need to fix a driver. I was looking through some FAQs and most people said that Premiere Pro is not supported by a server anymore. I was not even connected the internet, how can my computer be affected or why did I recieve this problem. I intially purchased Adobe Primiere 6.0 in 2001 or 02 and upgraded to Adobe Premiere Pro in 2005, I also upgraded from Windows 2000 to XP in 2005. Everything was fine until yesterday. I just need someone from Adobe to contact me and help ASAP.

Codec information in the info window or anywhere in Premiere Pro?

Hi all,
I'm very new to Adobe Premiere Pro so pardon the newly question. I of course come from the Final Cut Pro world.
So one of the things I didn't get was the level of information provided in the various info panels. I noticed that neither the file properties or info panels, display what kind of codec a particular video is when it's in the project. Lets say I had some XDCAM files and some ProRes files that i've imported, and I look at the info on the files either through right clicking and selecting properties or selecting the file and then going to the info panel, it doesn't ever display the actual codec in which the video is in. It usually says something like MPEG movie or Quicktime Movie, but it won't get more detailed like it's a "ProRes 422 file" or something like that.
Is there any place in Premiere where this information can be displayed? That's something that I did like about FCP, is it's transparent display of file attributes and how specific it gets down to what codec the file is encoded in, etc.
There's got to be a place in Premiere that has that info, no? Please advise.
Thanks!!

From what I understand, QT is now 64-bit native, so I'm not sure that would be the issue.
QuickTime X is 64-bit, but that's a completely different application and architecture than QuickTime 7, which is only 32-bit. Premiere Pro uses QuickTime 7 exclusively for QuickTime import/export support, since QuickTime X a) doesn't do everything QuickTime 7 does and b) is only available on the Mac.
Premiere Pro is not a QuickTime based application, the way that FCP 7 was (I think FCP X is a completely different animal, all the way). In many respects, QT is a bolt-on in Premiere Pro, but that's by necessity rather than by design. The QT32 Server application that Todd referenced is a result of this necessity; Apple didn't make it easy for other application authors to integrate QT into their applications, so Adobe had to do the next best thing. Not including QuickTime support of any sort in Premiere Pro CS5 and beyond, once the application went 64-bit, would have been an unacceptable end for many shops and editors who use QuickTime in their workflows. This comes at certain expenses, but there's only so much Adobe could do with the limitations of the QuickTime 32-bit architecture.
That said, Adobe has done a lot with many types of QuickTime files that completely circumvent the 32-bit QuickTime process, and allows Premiere Pro to natively and directly support certain MOV flavors. For example, Canon DSLR QuickTime MOVs are handled by Premiere Pro's MPEG importer (that's why they show up as MPEG Movie in Properties), as are DV/DVCPRO50/DVCPRO HD MOVs and JVC XDCAM EX MOVs. There are several other examples as well, but the end result is the same: you don't even need QuickTime 7 installed (on Windows or Mac) to import these files and they're always handled with a 64-bit importer. That's a pretty major workflow and performance enhancement, and I think goes a long way to suggest Adobe's commitment to handling as many media types natively and as robustly as possible.
Ultimately, I think that once Apple discontinues QuickTime 7, we'll be at a crossroads. Adobe appears to be trying to support as many different QuickTime codec flavors natively as they can, but that's a long list, and there are only so many that are viable to develop and maintain support of in the future. What that means for the formats and codecs you need for your workflows, I couldn't say, but definitely use that feature request form (when it works!) to add your voice to the conversation.

Premiere Pro CC very buggy timeline

Hi everyone! I can't seem to find a relevant answer to this problem I've been having with Premiere Pro CC.
Basically, I have a timeline with four video angles (not trying a multiclip edit; they are just in the timeline) and a few sources of audio. As I try to scroll side to side or zoom in and out, I get weird blacking out and clip outlines that shouldn't be there. If I try to move the divider bar between the audio and video tracks, it doesn't do anything. In the attached video, I try to navigate around the timeline, and then go to the multiclip version of an almost identical timeline (which works perfectly). In it's current state, the first (non-multiclip) timeline is completely unusable. Ideas? Thanks! Premiere CC Buggy Timeline - YouTube
~Tim

The audio and video tracks aren't synced via a timecode or anything definite like that. The audio track in question starts at a different time than the video clips, which means that I would need to scrub through it to find the spot where the audio I need occurs, and grab it. Maybe I just don't know about some functionality within Premiere, but I don't think I can just toss audio in a sequence and have it line up.
And again, just avoiding a broken or buggy timeline doesn't help me in the long run. What if I was working on a long-form documentary or something where this happened, but I didn't happen to have a multicam sequence already in place? I want to have a solution, not an avoidance-based workaround for this particular project. Thanks!

Premiere Pro CC won't read media source timecode?

We recently switched over some of our editing systems to Premiere Pro CC, but for some reason Premiere Pro CC isn't reading the timecode from our source footage. It works fine in CS6 and CS5, but on each of the CC systems, even though the timecode preference is set to "Use Media Source" the timecode that is displayed in the project window, the source window and even in the timeline with a timecode window effect added and set to media, the time code that is displayed starts from 0 as though it's set for "generate" or in preferences, "Start From 00:00:00:00."
All of our source footage is recorded on XDCam or DVCPro 100 and we've been using Premiere since CS5 without issue. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Can you upload a short clip somewhere for us to take a look at?
BTW, exactly which version of CC are you on?
