Premiere Pro CC HDV footage

I am having problems playing my HDV footage with CC but when I play it in CS6 it works fine....yes everything has been updated.

When playing the HDV footage, it freezes in the preview window and in the sequence, until I hit stop it will jump to that point in the clip. If I lay just the audio clip play it plays perfectly. The settings and loading is accurate to the project. Frame rate 29.97/ 1440x1080. I have imported these clips in CS6 which play flawlessly but not in CC.

Why does Adobe Premiere Pro modify original footage/asset files (e.g. mov)? (CS6)

Background:
A colleague had given me a large 33Gb .mov for use in a project, I put this file on a backup drive.
I made an identical copy of this 33Gb .mov file and placed it in a folder that I'd use to work on a Premiere Pro Project.
I ran Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and dragged in the 33Gb .mov file into the Sequence (imported it)
Premiere Pro CS6 started conforming the file.
After it had finished, I noticed that it's Modified Date was just now i.e different to the Modified Date on the original copy of the file on the backup drive (see step 1)
I ran a BeyondCompare check between the .mov file on the backup drive (see step 1) and the one that the Premiere Pro project was using (step 2, 3) and Beyond Compare reported they were different.
I had initially thought it was unrelated file corruption of some kind, but I have checked this several times and got the same outcome, so it's definitely Premiere Pro deliberately modifying the file.
So I am puzzled: these are supposed to be the same file.
Why would there be a need for Adobe Premiere Pro to modify the footage?
What does it do to the file?
Would it not be better to create a separate file if necessary?
I can accept this if that's how it works and it's good to know that it was Premiere Pro deliberately modifying the files and not corruption (so my hardware ought to be healthy). But it makes more sense to me if Premiere Pro made separate modified copies for its own use. Modifying the file as it does hinders my process for checking the integrity of backups; if the original asset footage files were the same as earlier copies then it would be easy to know that the backups are OK.
Thoughts?

Definitive Answer (I believe): It's all about this setting, "Write XMP ID To Files On Import" - which confirms that Adobe Premiere Pro is deliberately modifying the .mov file: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/preferences.html#WSE3BD4A43-7022-4fe6-97F5-95313 935347B
These posts give some background as to why having this setting enabled would be beneficial: one benefit being to be able to skip conforming files by matching the conformed file with the original using the embedded XMP tag :-

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 HDV Capture error

Since the latest update, i'm not able anymore to capture HDV with firewire link from my Canon XHA1.
MAC OSX Intel 10.7.5
When it should start capturing I get an error and Premiere CS6 goes on 'freeze'.
In CS5.5 (wich I kept installed), I don't have this error! But in CS5.5 there was no live view available.. what can be causing this error?
Help me please!!!

A cautionary tale:- I too fell foul of the Premiere Pro CS 6.0.5 update bug and kept losing my Firewire Capture. So I followed the advice here and uninstalled Premiere Pro and reinstalled it from the Production Premium disc and then updated to version 6.0.2.
However, my Mac Pro has now lost all system audio - no Quicktime (”an unknown error -101”), no CD/DVD sound and the iTunes progress bar does nothing when I press play. This bug is detailed by others in Apple Discussion page https://discussions.apple.com/message/18657051#18657051. Thankfully I am still able to hear sound in Premiere through my line out so I can still edit.
I’m not sure if this bug was fixed as the last submission to the Apple discussion was dated 20 June 2012 and the ‘Branched to a New Discussion’ link at the top of the page goes to a removed page.
If an update to Premiere Pro could fix this bug (it only appears to happen when Premiere CS6 is installed) as well the loss of Capture, I would be happy.

Premiere Pro CS3 DSLR footage problems

Hi guys, hoping to get some help regarding adobe premiere pro CS3. I am trying to import and compress some DSLR footage which I have captured on a Canon 5D mark 2 camera. However if i drag more than 3 or sometimes 5 minutes of footage on to the timeline the program crashes. Also sometimes my compressed footage has red screens in the playback some lasting a 3 to 4 seconds at start of clip and some a split second. Any ideas and help would be greatly appreciated.

CS3 is not capable of handling dslr footage.
You need to convert.
Might want to look at Neoscene or mpegstreamclip.

My video won't "Render and Replace" in Premiere Pro from linked footage in After Effects

I am using Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014. I can't get the video to "Render and Replace" in Premiere Pro after editing the original in After Effects. It just freezes on "Analyzing."
In order to see the footage in real time I have to export it to an mp4 then replace the linked footage. The footage is 18 minutes long and it takes more than 5 hours to export it. After I edit the exported version, I have to export it again, which is another 5 hours. This is taking a really long time. I would rather edit the "Rendered" version What am I doing wrong?
Russell

is this just a single clip, or you have the entire 18min loaded in AE as comp? does this happen with new projects and all footage or just some? can you render and replace regular clips that aren't AE comps? if its just a few clips of the 18min project, can you render previews in premiere? if its just a few clips, could also render them out in AE and swap them out in premiere instead of using render and replace... or maybe temporarily disable the ae effects/layers while editing in premiere and then turn them back on when ready to export final render.

Premiere Pro CS4 import footage bad

Mini-DV AVI footage that looks good in Premiere 6, Premiere Pro, and Windows Media Player, looks bad in Premiere Pro CS4, diagonals are jaggy. Any suggestions on correcting this issue?
Thanks.

Never heard of that. Capture is just a digital transfer, nothing gets changed. Are your playback settings correct? On what hardware and OS? What version of CS4? In short, look here: Some suggestions and answer the 16 questions asked in the first included link.

Can Premiere Pro smart render footage from a Canon 5D mark III ?

I already read that Premiere Pro can smart render certain codecs. But I want to know exactly: Can it smart render the video from a Canon 5D mark III?
In case smart render is not very specific: I'm asking if it can export the footage after cutting without rencoding it by just saving the individual frames into a new video container with the same codec. This should increase export time alot.
I'm asking because I have Premiere Elements and this feature would be the only reason for me to switch to Pro. I currently need 40 Minutes to render 10 Minutes. As a journalist I need to be faster.

Do you have any other tips how to boost export speed? I don't need the video to be small. I only do a raw edit where I cut out the junk. Quality loss should be minimal and speed ist most important.
Its hard to know if your export speed is normal or otherwise without some detail from you for comparison.
Hardware, system, OS and current export settings and times etc..
Generally the system and set up will determine the speed and editing experience.
5D footage should be no problem at all to a decent system ( and setup)
If you do a test export for us...tell us how long the export takes for how much footage . eg 1 minute footage = X export time.
No Effects.

Premiere Pro does not import any footage

Premiere Pro CS6 imports footage to the media browser, but with the image jumbled up. This happens regardless of format/codecs. Audio (including from footage) imports normally.

Ask in the Premiere forum. Sounds liek eitehr your graphics hardware acceleration is not working properly or you made a mess with your CoDecs. You need to provide exact technical info liek system specs and what footage you work with in any case.

Premiere Pro, Relinking and C300

This is something that seems to have come up for me time and again, and I wanted to see what others are doing to see if there's something I should be doing differently.
Our company does meetings for various companies. While the meeting is happening, we film everything and then make a video to play during the last day of the meeting. No sleep is to be had, and files get thrown around every which way, no matter how hard you try and stay organized. I'm not usually the person editing, but am almost always the one who has to make sense of the files when they come back to the ranch.
The editor doing the work is usually a freelance editor, and we don't really force any file organization system on them, so when the files come back, I do a slight reorganization. After reorganizing the files, I launch Premiere and it takes a long time to find all the files. I think this is something that is too be expected when dealing with the amount of footage that is in our projects. So I usually cancel out of that, and go into the project with everything unlinked, and then relink based on where I moved things around: Music, stock footage, renders, camera footage, etc.
So it all happens rather smoothly, except when I come across C300 footage.And sometimes C300 works. Except when it doesn't. If I try to connect all camera footage at the same time, it will inevitebly fail. Causing a hard crash, and often getting the "Premiere Pro has encountered a serious error" error. When this happens, I tend to go card by card, saving as I do. At some point, I will come across a card that gives me another serious error or crash. For those cards, I have to go clip by clip. It seems like the cards where I have to reconnect clip by clip in, have spanned clips. For instance, I had one named LP322701.mxf, all the way up to LP322710.mxf.
Eventually I can get the whole thing reconnected, but not without major issues. It should be a 15 minute process at most. To be honest, almost everytime I do this in FCPX, it's a snap. The last project I reconnected the other day in Premiere took 3 or 4 hours, and I endured upwards of 20 crashes. It's not always like this, but when it is, it's aweful. (And to be fair, there have been times where FCPX did not perform as expected, either.) And in this particular case, there are clips on the timeline with hashtaggy indicators meaning I likely didn't reconnect properly. Even though I know I am reconnected to precisely the same clip that it is supposed to be referencing.
Also, I've found that in some cases of the spanned clips like the LP322701.mxf, all the way up to LP322710.mxf that I mentioned before, they will be repeats of each other. So if I string all those clips out on a timeline, I get the same clip over and over again. I'm not sure how that happened. I wasn't the original editor, so maybe it was something done by him, but it's literally a copy, import, edit scenario. Nothing more.
I'd love to hear what others are doing that I might need to be doing to prevent this. This could all be operator error or something simple that I'm just not doing correctly.
A few specs:
Latest CC versions of Premiere. Running on the latest Mavericks. Originally edited on a MBP retina using the internal drive (I believe.) Then copied to a fire wire drive and once again to our Tiger Tech metaSAN. Reconnected using Late 2012 iMac running the latest Premiere Pro and OS. footage is 1080p 23.976, shot on C300. Anything I'm not including that would be relevant?
Thanks!

Be sure your freelance editor is doing things correctly:
1. Copy entire cards to the hard drive with nothing but Finder. Do not rename or delete anything.
2. In Premiere Pro use only the Media Browser for import.
When this is done, you will not see each part of spanned media, it will come in as one clip and files 322701 through 710 will not even show up.

Exporting 120fps Premiere Pro - GoPro

Hi,
I have been trying to export some footage that was edited in Premiere Pro. The footage was shot on a GoPro camera 720 @ 120fps. When I export, the quality of the video is exteremely poor and some shots give me horizontal fragmented lines through the frames.
Below are the sequence settings that were automatically made when I created a new sequence with my footage and as well as the export settings that automatically show up.
My goal is to export into a file that can be watched on a TV with the highest quality possible.
Thank you!

Hi Kevin:
I really appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to help me out.
I am very confused and I sincerely apologize for my lack of understanding.
Basically, I filmed my family vacation using my go pro and my settings were 720 120fps the whole time. I imported all the clips and adobe recognized the fps and then I edited the clips with some slow mo sections, some just normal activity a couple of time lapses and titles and it is now a 9 minute "movie".
I have previously done something like this but it was a one minute "movie" that I uploaded to vimeo and it worked out ok, quality was still poor but I was ok with it.
This time we will be viewing on a TV and I would like maximum quality. Therefore I am not really understanding how I cannot just export into .mov or something that I could plug into USB port on my DVD player and show it.
Sorry if you are answering my problems and I am failing to understand.
Regards,
Steven Sall

Can I use After Effects/Premiere Pro to change 29.97 to 23.97?

I shot footage on BMCC at 29.97 accidentally. I now need a way to change it back to 23.97 because the rest of my footage was shot like that. Anyway I can change this? Either using Adobe After Effects or Premiere Pro? The footage is all on sticks with minimal movement. Can it look the same as 23.97? I've heard using Twixtor can fix this, but want to make sure there isn't any other way before I look into that. Thanks.

Twixtor will do a better job of it because it takes more parameters into account than AE does.
And get that frame rate straight! it's 23.976, not 23.97. Those tiny fractions can come back to bite you later on.

Question- How to use HDV files in Premiere Pro

Hello everyone, I am new to using Mac's and the Adobe range as I have just started a course in film and television production.
I have recorded footage on a mini DV tape, in PAL HDV mpeg format, and transferred the footage from Tape to Digital Hard Disk at University (where it plays on Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5.5) but it will not respond once I add it to a sequence in Premiere or try to preview on my home laptop. There is no video or sound when I try to open using my laptop (just an empty black bar when I add to a sequence).
I have tried to find the answer or a Codec but with no success and I am trying to avoid working on the project on campus as I live an hour away and just spent a lot on the computer to avoid such trips.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also I should add that the files play perfectly when I open them using Quick Time and the update option in Premiere is greyed out (not available)
thanks for your time

Hey Bill, thanks for the reply.
I am including some screenshots from Premiere.
I have contacted the seller I purchased the package from to check what he says, I cannot delete Premiere at this stage as I don't have a physical copy to reinstall
Also I see nowhere to upgrade or register the program
Also I have completed [projects using this version of Premiere with no issue, only they were not in HDV format.
Thanks for your time

Help! Trouble Rendering 16:9 footage in AE, and playing it in Premiere Pro!

I have two issues:
#1. I've spent hours searching for a solution to this dilemma, and I've only managed to come across "similar" problems other people have been having... However, I still cannot fix my problem.
Basically, I've been editing some footage in After Effects. The source material was filmed in HDV 1080, 30 fps; the source's aspect ratio was 1440 x 1080. I attempted to render the completely-edited footage in an AVI format with the compression codec: Xvid MPEG-4 Codec (as was suggested by a tutorial video on YouTube) and with an aspect ratio of 1024 x 768. But, no matter what I do, my rendered video always comes out horizontally "squeezed" when viewed in Windows Media Player, and when uploaded to YouTube/Facebook. Fortunately, when imported to Premiere Pro, I can interpret the footage properly so it's not squeezed.
Is there anyway I can render footage in After Effects so the widescreen product isn't "squeezed" in WMP/Facebook/YouTube?
#2. Even though the footage can be interpreted properly in Premiere Pro, the playback is jumpy - like, it'll only play 2 seconds smoothly, and then get stuck, jumping to points that are 5-7 seconds apart. Surprisingly, the original source material does not have this issue in Premiere Pro, despite having a larger aspect ratio and a file size that's more than twice as large. I thought maybe a small RAM was the problem, but my computer has 3.8 GB of usable space on the RAM when I checked. Rendering the work area after every little edit I do is getting too tedious, 'cause it takes about a minute to render the 12 second footage - but at least it plays back smoothly... I don't have to do this with the original source, though. Is there a way around this? What's causing the jumpy playback in Premiere Pro CS 5.5?
Thanks...

If you want to render for any media player (QT or Windows) you must use a square pixel format that's appropriate to the codec you're using. AE's presets that use square pixels are all legal frame sizes. If you want to have Premiere or any other NLE playback footage you render in After Effects without having to re-render the previews you must use the same codec you're using for the sequence.
Your frame size from Premiere is NOT square pixels, it's DVC Pro HD with a 1.33 PAR so unless you bring that footage into a square pixel comp (1920 X 1080 for example) or resize it on export using the Adobe Media Encoder (recommended) or by Resizing in the Output Module (not recommended for a bunch of reasons) the output is going to look squeezed in any media player.
Rendering to the Xvid MPEG 4 codec from AE isn't recommended at all because MPEG codecs only give good results when you use multi pass ending (AME will do that), but more importantly MPEG codecs are GOP codecs which make up the data for several virtual frames from a few real (i frames), and they take a tremendous amount of CPU power to decode.
Your best rendering choices are a lossless 10 bit codec (black magic for example) or a lossless like Animation Quicktime if you need alpha channels, or nearly lossless codec like Photo JPEG QT at 95% quality when you're doing further production on the footage including color correction, or to render to the same codec the camera uses. Only the same codec used for your PPro sequence will give you smooth playback in Premiere Pro without rendering previews.
If you told us what codec the camera uses we'd be able to help you figure out the best option for rendering.

Can't Preview HDV Capture In Premiere Pro CS6

I can't preview my HDV footage in Premiere Pro CS6.
I know I'm not supposed to be able to see anything in the Capture Window when I'm actually capturing HDV, but it says I should be able to see my footage when I am just previewing in the Capture Window.
Canon HV20
i7 2600K
Windows 7 64 Bit
ASUS P67 MOBO
16GB RAM
GTX 470
Corsair AT 850 Watt PSU
Thanks!

Thanks Ann!
I just figured it out.
I'm using 2 monitors in extended mode.
One is a VGA flat panel and the other is a DVI flat panel.
I had the Capture Window open on my VGA monitor.
When I moved the Capture Window to my DVI monitor, I got a preview picture.
It's funny, when I move the Capture Window from the DVI to the VGA while playing, playing stops.
And when I move it bak to the DVI, it continues to play.
Maybe because the VGA isn't digital?
Both monitos are hooked up to my GTX 470 GPU, so it seems wierd.
Any feedback on this would be welcomed.
Thanks again!
