Premiere Pro CC - File Size

Please help me!
I am working on a QuickTime video that was 45 MB 49 minutes long. I trimmed three simple areas (beginning, a tiny piece in the middle, then the end) and after it's a 46 minute video that ended being a 1,681 file size!
I have attached the original file here.
I am trying to get it back to around 42.7 MB but it's really frustrating. I have it at a Youtube HD 1080p 29.97...

Less than 50mb for 49 minutes is ridiculously small.
The data rate must have been absolutely minimal and have affected quality.
You will need to lower our bit rate substantially for your export ( and I doubt that you wil make it to42 mb for 46 minutes.)

I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function works

I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function, render workspace function, export file are still operational. How can I fix it so I may complete my assignment?
Besides DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Creative Suite 6 is the only software on the machine. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Operating System on AMD FX 6100 six-Core Processor at 3.31gHz and 32 GB RAM memory. There are two SLI-bridged GTX680 NVidia cards.
The software was very stable for the last six months, working with 720P proxy files from 2.5K masters (Blackmagic Design Camera). I am working on a feature-length project that exceeds 1000 edits. I have broken the file into 2 one hour segments.
I have deactivated the software before reinstalling the entire OS from scratch. PP6 was very stable for 48 hours. Then the freezing space bar returns. After a dozen strokes into the project, same problem. I have made cache files store next to originals, I have deleted preview files if they were corrupted and causing instability. Am I missing something?
I have Microsoft Security Essentials for virus protection. I double checked the memory for damage/defect. Nothing says that the motherboard or other components are damaged.
I am in film competition overseas and need to have deliverables in less than a month's time. I lost the last two weeks troubleshooting and this crisis came at an inopportune moment of the project.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Still getting software freezes but found a way to mitigate for the mean time.
Upon launching Adobe Premiere Pro, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to launch TaskManager as well.
You will want to highlight Adobe QT32 Server.exe
Right click and select "End Process Tree"
You will get considerable stability in the program, long enough to get timing of cuts done. Be sure to save often.
If the program freezes, do not hit Save. You definitely want to avoid saving the corruption into your TimeLine
CTRL-ALT-DEL to relaunch the TaskManager and highlight Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
Right-click to "End Process"
No need to reboot the whole system; just launch Premiere Pro again and continue with the session. Note that your work reverted to Last Save.
Hope this helps until the bug is fixed.

Premiere Elements 11 file sizes

Premiere Elements 11 file sizes?
I recorded small 170MB and larger 570MB videos with audio using HyperCam 3.
Both load and play back in Windows Media Player (ver 12.0.7601.18150) without a problem.
I can load and play back the small files in Premiere Elements 11 without a problem.
But, when I load the larger file into Premiere Elements 11, only the sound track loads and plays.
No video track and the preview screen is a solid black box on my monitor.
Is there a file size restriction in using Premiere Elements 11?

By the time I downloaded and looked at your sample video, I see that you and nealeh have worked out a workaround, that is, converting your Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM).avi (1920 x 1080 @ 10 frames per second) to H.264.mp4 (1920 x 1080 @ 30 frames per second.
I was able to convert your sample video into H.264.mp4 (1920 x 1080 @ 30 frames per second using the free HandBrake program). All 11 minutes 52 seconds of the H.264.mp4 imported into Premiere Elements 11 without issue.
In the case of these converters, we are dealing with changes in at least video compression, file extension, and frame rate.
However
The tests brought up some interesting questions
1. When I ran your file through the gspot utility, the video codec was shown as Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM), but it listed Codec NOT installed.
2. In spite of the Codec NOT installed, I was able to play back your video in Windows Media Player and VLC Player.
3. Your Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM).avi imported with the complete duration of the file, but only audio, no video.
Further
4. When I ran my own Premiere Elements 11 created Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM).avi (30 frames per second, 11 min duration) through gspot, the video codec was shown as Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM), but it listed Codec NOT installed - same as yours.
5. Yet, my file imported into Premiere Elements 11 completely (video and audio).
6. I need to run a Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM).avi 10 frames per second, 11 min duration) to see if I get the same results as in 5.
When you record your video, do you have the option of changing the frame rate from 10 to 30 frames per second?
So, some of the questions that the remain for me
a. Why is my Premiere Elements 11 created Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM) appearing to be different from the Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM) that you use in your file?
b. Why is gspot telling me that the Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM) codec is not installed when I can use it in Premiere Elements 11 for the import and export of my own file?

Thanks Miles4Ever!
When you say converted, do you mean you got a dialogue box after double clicking saying the file needed to be converted? Or some other kind of procedure. thanks again.

Importing a Premiere Pro Project file in AE

Hi,
I've just finish editing a long feature with Premiere Pro that I've broken down into 10 project files to allow Premiere not to have the memory crash.
Now I'd like to import in AE the project file to be able to do image stabilization on different shot and sky replacement.
My questions are:
a) If I import the project files, can I make modifications in AE (like color correction, stabilization, sky replacement,...) then save the project so that it can still be opened in Premiere
b) Can I recombined my whole feature into one project in AE or the memory won't handle it as Premiere's memory didn't ?
Thank you.

You can save a Premiere Pro project from After Effects. See
"Export an After Effects project to Adobe Premiere Pro".
Note that there are several other ways of moving data between After Effects and Premiere Pro, including copy & paste and Dynamic Link. See
"Working with Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects".
> Can I recombined my whole feature into one project in AE
> or the memory won't handle it as Premiere's memory didn't ?
The size of the project doesn't tend to be a problem for After Effects. (Frame size, occasionally; image buffer size, occasionally; but not project size.)

Export Premiere Pro CS4 file into QuickTime Movie

Hello!
I am a student at the Art Institute Online program. I am taking a video editing class using Premiere Pro CS4. I successfully completed my video which needs to be saved to display in Quicktime; however, I am not able to upload the file to my class discussion because the file is too large. The size of my Tfile zipped is 169,761 KB. Is there anything anyone can recommend?
Thanks much,
Annette

You need to reduce the bitrate to reduce the file size.
It is okay to then ZIP the file to make it even smaller for uploading to a server, however people will have to then download it and unzip it to watch.
You will also find links to many free tutorials in the PremiereProPedia that will quickly show you how things are done in Premiere Pro.
Cheers
Eddie

Premiere Pro 4 File Won't Open

Hi all
I have an adobe premiere pro file that won't open. When I double click on it, the load project bar gets to about four fiths of the way, then it just stops. The last time I saved the file, I saved it to my computer, then I saved it to a portable hard drive to back it up (around four minutes later). Both versions of the file won't open. The previous file will open, but I have done 30 hours more work since then (on the new file). I thought it was enough to be saving every few minutes, saving back ups to a portable hard drive... I also have a raid 1 configuration! I was never expecting this. When I leave the Premiere Pro on the Load Project screen, it stays there for hours.
If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi John
Thanks for getting back to me. I just looked in autosave. The file that won't open was last saved at 11:02pm on the 16th. There was an autosave project at 10.25pm on the 16th, and that wouldn't open either (it crashes at exactly the same place as the other one). However, there was an autosave file at 6:17pm on the 16th that would open. Curious though, it doesn't seem to have a lot of the changes I thought I had made by this time. It seems to be earlier than this (although perhaps my memory isn't serving me correctly). Should there be more autosaves that this? I had the program open pretty much that whole time, and nothing between 6:17 and 10:25.
Anyway, that's a start! Something must have happened between 6.17pm and 10.25pm that'd made the file go kaput. I would love to know what, so I can avoid this happening again. First things first though, it'd be fantastic to get the file that isn't opening working.
Thanks for your swift response too, Jim. I opened PP and tried to open the file from the interface. The load project bar stopped at the same place. I can open other projects fine. As to your last suggestion, I created a new project, and went to File/Import then clicked on the file in question. It started importing, then the progress bar froze at exactly the same place. I'm not sure if I did this correctly. Is there another way to import a PP file into an existing PP?
Thanks again for your time. It's just nice to speak to someone about this because I really freaked out when it happened.

Acrobat Pro 9 file size increases 10x

When I edit a pdf file in Acrobat Pro 9, even the smallest edit like the date, my document size increases by 10 fold. Another user, on the same version, makes the same edit and it does not change much at all. I have uninstalled/reinstalled 3 times, tried Reduce File Size and many other things but nothing seems to work. Has anyone else experienced this same thing and found a resolution?

That is my bad...I must have been in a hurry trying to beat the snow storm and misposted. How can I move or delete and get this in the correct forum?
Thanks

Premiere Pro CC file from MAC does not open on PC?!

Hello,
I had to edit a school assignment on Premiere Pro CC and I used my Macbook at home to edit it. When I tried to open the file on the PC computers at school with their Adobe Premiere Pro CC, it wouldn't open and said that I created the file with a newer version of Premiere Pro CC.
My question is, is it not cross-compatible between platforms? That is kind of annoying. Or is there a way around this in saving my projects so that I could use both Mac or PC to edit?
Thanks.
Eileen

Use the EXACT same version of CC. There is no way to open a CC2014.1 project with an earlier version. But you can open the source clips in an earlier version, only not the project.

I Need Help With Premiere Pro CC File Issue

When I shoot video with my Canon XF100 camera for an extended period it creates new files every 5 minutes. In a continous shoot it keeps these separate files in a sub-folder until I hit the stop button. When I recommence shooting it creates a new sub folder and a new file.
Until recently Premiere Pro CC would read each file seperately in a sub folder but just recently it has started to combine them all. For example, if I was shooting continuously for 15 minutes I would get three 5 minutes filesand Premiere Pro CC would normally see 3 separate 5 minute files with their own file names but just recently it will see 3 files, each 15 minutes in lenghth, and each with the same content even though they have different file names.
Has anyone else experienced this and, if so, do you have a solution?
Thanks,
Milton

This was an unintended result of an intentional change to fix how Premiere Pro handles spanned MXF clips. To learn a bit more, please consult this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1358012?tstart=0
Look for the workaround recommended by PPRO developer Wil Renczes.

CS4 Premiere Pro General file format & preview problems

I was redirected here after posting my complaint on Twitter, so please excuse my forum manner.
I've been using Adobe Premiere Pro (CS4) for about a year now, and I've been editing videos along with other packages with no problem. (Only problem being my slow processor). Up until last week Premiere Pro has been completely fine. But seeing I have a project deadline next month, I thought I would spend a day trying to kick-start the video editing.
My source videos were originally photograph-frames animated in Flash CS4 into .MOV, decided to use the H.264 output codec. As I have finished exporting my needed videos, I imported them into Premiere Pro as usual, as I have in the past. But then I encountered the common problem that I have seen quite a few have also encountered with .MOV, or jsut general "no-preview" problem when the source video is fine.
I then took a day to research online about Premiere Pro's compatability with .MOV, among other container and formats. Upon using softwares such as MediaInfo and GSpot, I found that there might have been a problem with missing Codecs within my Adobe package. I then tried to convert the .MOV into .MPG (mpeg2), hoping such standard codec would work with Premiere Pro as they they in the past. No result avail.
I then turned to the uninstall route (retaining user info) and re-installing. The problem has NOT been fixed, what's more is that it crashes almost instantly after I try rendering the workplace. (Even post-rendering does not show the preview, but the files in the Adobe folder, does). Here's a screencap to my latest workplace, if it helps:
[IMG]http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k83/neo0031/AdobePreProcap.jpg[/IMG]
Before the re-install, I believe I was running Premiere Pro CS4's latest update (4.2.x) something, now it is back to 4.0.0. But I don't think that is where the main problem is? I recently changed my locale from a certain language to Japanese to run a certain program. Would that be causing the problem(s)?
Does anyone know a way that I can FIX this? Any help is appreciated and I thank you all in advance.
I am using a Sony Vaio NS series laptop,
a 2.0 GHz Intel Pentium Dual Core processor
3GB RAM,
intergrated graphics Intel Chipset Family Series 4( I think).
Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit.
I tried moving the Scratch disks from an external portable hard drive to the local hard drive, to no result.
Again, any help is appreciated. I would appreciate direct advice rather than links. Thanks again.
Neo.

I have updated my CS4, Ppro to 4.2.1. The problem still remains. Would it have anything to do with my project setting? I don't have much knowledge to setting one up. The difference between the AVC projects and etc?
EDIT : I took the problem to my lecturer, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but his "magic touch" click on the preview panel (Main composition) has made the video show up! But even after render, it won't play. But scrubbing along frames is now fixed. Any idea what's causing the no-preview-playback?

Premiere Pro CC file imported to PPCC 2014 missing audio

I've been working on a project in Premiere Pro CC for several months and just downloaded the 2014 update. When I loaded my project file into PPCC2014, the file was converted, but now most of my audio clips are empty. The video is there, but no audio information at all. How do I get it back? Thanks.

Answered my own question...it merely needed time to render.

How do I export a Premiere Pro CS4 file as a *.mov file?

Hi,
I got Premiere Pro CS4 some time back and never got round to properly learning to use it. I've picked it up again and have put together a small video sequence to ensure I can create something simple for a start and that it publishes fine but I've encountered a problem at the publishing stage (and I want to use it in After Effects so this is irritating me):
* I've finished the sequence and it's on my timeline in unexported form
* I then click File-Export-Media to go to the export settings
* In the settings I export as a Quicktime *.mov file and both the video and audio check boxes are checked and ready to go
* The quality is 100% and the output name has a legitimate path on my computer
* I click 'OK' and the save window closes and a smaller window says 'Exporting data/file/whatever it should say'
* I then search for the saved file on my PC, first in the path the save screen said, then using the search box in the windows button and I find it hasn't saved anything and told me it has done
Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to properly save my video on my PC as a *.mov file? I looked on Youtube and a tutorial suggested I was doing everything right but I just can't see why this isn't saving properly.
Advance thanks.

What version of Apple's QT Player do you have installed?
What CODEC did you choose with your MOV Export?
Good luck,
Hunt

Deleting Premiere Pro Preview Files

I have a huge file containing the preview files. Can I delete these? When is it safe to delete them. I am using Premiere Pro CS4 on a PC with Windows 7. Thanks in advance for any help

Yes you can delete them. If you render the timeline Pro will remake the files.
