Premiere Pro CS4 over remote desktop does not play sequence

Hi all,
I have been researching this issue over the internet but I have found absolutely no references to it:
I am running Premiere Pro CS4 on my high-resource PC but would like to work from a different room so I am remoting form my laptop to my "good" PC.
The system lets me do everything I could normally do when working directly on the main PC with the exception of playing back my edited files (before rendering). This is an obvious handicap since I can not watch my edited sequence and am, therefore, working in the blind. I am able to step through it frame by frame, but when I click the play button, it changes to a pause symbol (as usual) but nothing is shown in the video window. This does not just happen when previewing my edited sequence but also when previewing any imported resource.
Essentially, Premiere Pro CS4 is not playing any video content over a Remote Desktop.
Other normal playback software (such as VLC, Windows Media Player etc...) works though, so it is not an issue of no video playback at all. This just happens when I'm using Premiere Pro.
Any suggestions as to what this may be? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I was able to edit a full 1080p HD video in Premiere Pro CS5 remotely using HPs RGS (Remote Graphics Software).  I had a Workstation at work with Premiere Pro installed on it and all the source footage on it.  I was then able to log on remotely from home with my old weak-sauce desktop and successfully edit and play back the HD footage remotely.  You just do a google search for HP RGS or go to this link. http://h20331.www2.hp.com/hpsub/cache/286504-0-0-225-121.html
There is a free trial available too. I don't know why there is not more information about RGS on the web, but it seems to me to be the only solution to work on Premiere or After Effects remotely.
I hope this helps

  • Premiere Pro CS4 "Export Settings" window does not show up.

    Hello,
    I've run into a new problem with Premiere Pro CS4. Basically, when I select "File > Export > Media" my Export Settings window doesn't show up. If I click on the Premiere window I hear the beeping sound and nothing happens, if I hit Enter the Export Data window pops up and then Media Encoder opens. So, it seems that my Export Settings window is still open but I can't see it and make the necessary setting changes. It does not appear to be minimized and I can not locate it on my desktop anywhere. This is really frustrating because I was able to see the Export Settings window just a few weeks ago when I was exporting my last project. I've tried changing my screen resolutions but that didnt reveal the Export Settings window.
    Does anyone know what is going on here and, more importantly, how I can fix it? I am really stuck here and am working against a deadline. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

    Ben,
    THANK YOU!!!! For two days I have been struggling with the exact same issue. And of course it was simple to fix, if I had just thought about it. Thank you for taking the time to post your experience. I had tried all sorts of stuff trying to get everything onto my #1 monitor, with desktop & workspace resets, resizing my display, etc. After reading and printing your post,
    Hitting ALT+Space,
    Down Arrow,
    Enter,
    and then pressing the left arrow and watching my Export window slide into view, I was laughing so hard, that I was tearing up. It would have been a month waiting for my second monitor to get repaired to get to see what was still being displayed on this ghost monitor. Each week, I video and edit our church's service and then post three versions (Windows Media Player, Ipod-MP4, MP3 Audio) of it to our web site. I would have been four weeks behind were it not for your post.
    Again, a BIG Thank You!!!

  • Installed Premiere Pro CS4 but video display does not work?

    I just got my copy of CS$. After installing Premiere I found two things that seem very wrong:
    1) video display does not work, not even the little playback viewer next to improted film clips located on the project / sequence window. Audio works fine.
    2) the UI is way too slow for my big beefy system.
    My pc is a dual boot Vista-32 and XP system with 4GB of memory installed and nvidia geforce 280 graphics board with plenty of GPU power. The CS4 is installed on the Vista-32 partition. My windows XP partition on the same PC with Premiere CS2 works great and real fast.
    Any ideas how to solve this CS4 install issue?
    Ron

    I would like to thank Dan, Hunt, and Haram:
    The problem is now very clear to me. The problem only shows up with video footage imported into PP CS4 encoded with "MS Video 1" codec. So this seems to be a bug. The codec is very clearly called out and supported within various menues but video with this codec just will not play in any monitor or preview window. In addition the entire product looks horrible with respect to performance while PP CS4 trys its best to play the video. Audio will start playing after about 30 seconds. And once in awhile part of video shows up at the wrong magnification before blanking out again.
    My suggestion to the Adobe team: fix the bug and add some sample footage to the next release so new installations can test their systems with known footage.

  • Premiere Pro CS4: 64-Bit App or Not?

    I read in the new Premiere Pro CS4 specs that it was "optimized for use on Win Vista 64-Bit..."
    Using that language, is Adobe saying it's still a 32-bit app, but will work fine on the Vista 64-bit platform? Would appreciate somebody clarifying that point.

  • Premiere Pro CS3 PCM audio recognized but not playing back

    Hello all,
    I have an AVI file which uses the Huffyyuv codec and PCM audio. Premier Pro (PP) recognizes the audio, as I see the audip specs in the project pane.
    The following are the properties of the source video:
    Type: AVI Movie
    File Size: 500.2 MB
    Image Size: 720 x 400
    Pixel Depth: 720
    Frame Rate: 25.00
    Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 16 bit - Stereo
    Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
    Total Duration: 00:01:11:09
    Average Data Rate: 7.0 MB / second
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0
    AVI File details:
    Contains 1 video track(s) and 1 audio track(s).
    Interleave: 1 : 0.50
    Video track 1:
    Size is 487.04M bytes (average frame = 287.06K bytes)
    There are 1784 keyframes.
    Frame rate is 25.00 fps
    Frame size is 720 x 400
    Depth is 24 bits.
    Compressor: 'HFYU', Huffyuv v2.1.1
    Audio track 1:
    Size is 13.06M bytes
    Rate is 48000 samples/sec
    Sample size is 16 bits
    The audio will play on all media players and also on Windows Movie Maker. But on PP, it does not play in the source monitor or in the timeline.
    Any help would be appreciated - Thanks in advance!

    Well, the PCM/WAV 48KHz 16-bit should be fine.
    Since it is not, something must be afoot. The first thing that I would do is check that that Clip has a CFA and PEK file n the Media Cache folder. If not, then Conforming might not have been allowed to complete, though the Source Monitor should be able to play it, as it relies on the actual source file.
    Then, if it's still a no-go, I'd try a Render/Replace for that file's Audio portion.
    If that still does not work, if you have Soundbooth, Audition or even the free Audacity, I'd rip the Audio to PCM/WAV 48KHz 16-bit (yes, I know that is what it already is, but something is not working), and Import that resultant file, replacing any Audio stream from the muxed file.
    Now, one quick question, and probably should have been asked first - do you get other Audio to play fine in PrPro? If not, see this ARTICLE.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • I uninstalled the Premiere Pro and my CC app does not recognise it

    I uninstalled the Premiere Pro from my computer and now, when I try to reinstall it my Creative Croud accuses that I still have it on my computer. But I don´t have. What should I do? I tried closing the CC app, I tried unlloging from the CC and it still displays as if Premiere was installed.

    Moving this discussion to the Creative Cloud Download & Install forum.

  • CUPS PDF PRINTING IN WINDOWS OVER REMOTE DESKTOP - PRINTER NOT LISTED

    I am running OS X 10.6.2. I connect remotely using windows remote desktop / terminal services to various windows machines. For the XP and Windows 2003 Server 32 bit systems I have no problems with printing pdf documents from the remote windows system back to my mac using CUPS PDF. I don't have to install anything on the remote windows computer. However, for Windows 2003 Server 64 bit and Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, the CUPS PDF printer does not appear in the printer list. I tried installing the Laserwriter 8500 print driver (which apparently CUPS uses) and attaching to a unused TS printing port. The printer appears in the list but it won't print, and it's obviously not attaching to my computer.
    I can't upgrade my mac operating system until I resolve a keyboard driver issue with 10.6.3 and above. Any suggestions?

    I am having a similar issue. I'm using Remote Desktop to connect to a 2008 R2 server and am trying to use PDFWriter as a redirected printer to create a PDF. It is only working after I check print to file, save the file (which it creates an XPS file that is not compatible), then I uncheck print to file, click print, and then it creates the pdf file I need.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Basically - I need to have a "PDF" printer because the print window is on the remote server and it doesn't have the save as pdf option.
    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.

  • Apple Remote desktop does not start

    When I launched it on my iMac (17", 3.4Ghz/8Gb/1Tb) under OSX 10.9.1 the menu of Apple Remote desktop appear but nothing else, no window.
    When I put my cursor in the menu the color wheel runs, when I click on it, nothing appen (=App frozen).
    I uninstalled it (with CleanMyMac2), repaired the disk permissions (with Disk Utility), redownload Apple Remote Desktop (from the AppStore) and I have the same problem when I launched it.
    Could you help me? I need to establish a professional connexion to an other country.

  • MacBook Pro 17" (mid 2010) desktop does not fill entire screen

    Hi,
    First of all I apologize for posting such a long question but in order to best describe the problem I am having with my MacBook Pro, I had to mention every detail.
    I recently installed windows 7 x64 home premium on my new MacBook Pro 17 inch (mid 2010). After successfully installing the Bootcamp drivers (version 3.1) I have noticed that my screen resolution has become slightly smaller than before. There are half an inch thick black bars on the right side as well as on the top of the screen.
    This problem is not limited to windows, I'm having the same problem in mac osx after the windows 7 installation. Even on the start up gray screen.
    I have tried almost every trick in the book, adjusting the screen resolution from the display settings menu (which by the way are on 1920x1080), checking all the settings on the nvidia control panel, resetting the SMC, resetting the VRAM, running the hardware diagnostic test (short as well as the long one), formatting the windows partition, formatting the Mac OSX partition then performing a fresh install of both. So far, I have been frustrated with failure.
    After trying my best to resolve this issue on my own, I tried my luck with apple support. The customer representative was very helpful and listened carefully as I explained the problem to him. He asked me first to check for any available updates on my mac osx as well as in win 7. I told him that I had already installed every available update in both the OS's. He then asked me to reset the SMC and after that to reset the VRAM. Even though I had already tried this, I still gave it another shot but that didn't help.
    Since my MBP was still under the standard warranty, (I have also purchased the Apple Care Protection Plan) he asked me to take it to an Apple Authorized Service Provider. I took his advice and went to the nearest AASP. The Apple Engineer over there performed the same steps, adjusting screen resolution, resetting SMC and VRAM, but even he was not able to resolve this problem. He suggested that I should get my graphics card replaced or if required upon inspection, the logic board replaced. To be very honest, I was very skeptical about his suggestion as the laptop is brand new, hardly 2 months old. How is it possible that there could be a problem with the hardware? I asked him whether it is possible to restore the firmware of the graphics card as the problem could be software related. He said that Apple have not started issuing firmware restoration CD's for the latest mid 2010 MBP's so a firmware restore won't be possible. My best bet would be to get the graphics card replaced or the whole logic board replaced.
    So you see, I have been down almost every possible road which could have lead to resolving this issue but unfortunately I am stuck with it. I hope any of you could offer a different approach in order to get rid of this annoying problem.
    Any help would be highly appreciated. (Trust ME!!!)
    PS: I have also posted this question on the Bootcamp forums page. Since the problem is not limited to windows 7, I decided to post here as well.

    UPDATE: I just came back after a visit to the apple service provider here in New Delhi. They have replaced the logic board on my macbook pro and guess what? the situation is still the same. No difference what so ever as far as the screen resolution is concerned. I can still see those black bars in the exact same places i.e. the right hand side as well as on the top of the screen. Even the size of the black bars are still the same.
    I am so upset right now. After trying my best in order to solve this problem I went to the AASP with high hopes. I was very confident that after replacing the logic board this annoying problem would go away but unfortunately that's not the case. Even the Apple Engineer was clueless on how to solve this problem.
    I think I'll call apple care and speak to the customer relations regarding a replacement.
    If any of you can come up with a solution to this problem please let me know.
    I'm all ears!!!

  • Vob Import Question in Premiere Pro CS4 4.1

    Hello,
      Prior to posting, I read numerous posts related to importing vob files in Premiere.  None of them seemed to address the particular problem I am experiencing, and I was hoping to find an answer here in the forums.  Here's what I am attempting to accomplish:
    1)  Export the vob files (there are 4 of them) from a commercial movie DVD to hard disk
    2)  Import the vob files into a Premiere Pro CS4 4.1 project
    3)  Build a sequence out of the 4 vob files
    4)  Replace the sound in two very short segments to eliminate profane language so that my children may watch the movie
    5)  Import the sequence into Encore CS4 and burn a standard DVD
    I was successful in all of the above steps 1-5.  So what's the problem?  I noticed, when viewing the output DVD, that at a certain point (only a single point) in the movie, the sound was garbled and the frames got 'wonky' (a technical term I picked up from Deke McClelland).  My first assumption, was that I had messed something up somewhere in my editing process.  When I navigated to the problematic time in my Premiere project, I saw that there was a problem in that at a certain point, the video would flicker, after which the audio would be out of sync with the video and would remain so until the end of the sequence.  If instead, I simply navigated within the sequence to a few seconds past where the problematic frames seemed to be, all would be well (audio and video in sync).  So, this means to me, that at the point where the problematic frames seem to be, Premiere has trouble interpreting them, and from that point on, the sequence is affected.  If the seemingly problematic frames are skipped, then Premiere does not enter its bad state.
    The next troubleshooting step was to start afresh, and see if the problem existed prior to making any edits to the sequence (i.e. steps 1-3 above).  The problem still existed.
    The next troubleshooting step was to see if a media player exhibited the same behavior as Premiere.  So I took the same vobs and viewed them with Windows Media Player 11.  There was no problem viewing the exact same vob in Media Player 11 that essentially is not viewable in Premiere Pro CS4 4.1.  Hmm.
    The next troubleshooting step was to see if an encoding program would exhibit the same behavior as Premiere.  I imported the same vobs into TmpEnc, and when viewing them, no problems were exhibited.
    Although not conclusive, it appears that there is a bug in Premiere Pro CS4 4.1.
    Another problem that I noticed with vobs, is that sometimes, Premiere Pro CS4 4.1 does not recognize the proper frame rate of a standard DVD vob file, e.g. given 5 vobs that comprise a single movie, the first vob is shown as simply a video file (i.e. no audio at all) @ 29.97 fps in the Project panel, but the subsequent 4 vobs are recognized correctly as having both audio and video @ 23.976 fps.  As before, I validated that the apparently problematic vob (from the Premiere Pro CS4 4.1 point of view) renders/plays perfectly fine in other applications (i.e. no audio or video problems).  I attempted to use 'Interpret Footage' to rectify the problem with the vob, and when I type in 23.976 fps, it takes it, but then displays in the Project panel as 23.98 fps.  It didn't fix the problem, but I was wondering if diplaying 23.976 as 23.98 (as opposed to 23.976 which is shown for the non-problematic vobs) is another problem.
    Thanks much for any and all help,
    Matt

    Welcome to the forum.
    Now, you have several problems, but most are with your choice of equipment and your workflow, not your choice of an NLE.
    I took a wedding video from 1990 on a VCR tape and turned it to digital via a Dazzle hardware unit that plugs into the computer. It gives me vob files with no menus or anything like that
    Few people have ever been able to get a Dazzle to work. This is true, even with the Pinnacle software, that often comes with it. It is an AVID product now, as they bought Pinnacle, and if you can get it to work at all, you are ahead of 99% of all owners. Stop by the Pinnacle fora and type in Dazzle. You will get the idea quickly.
    A far better workflow would be to use a VHS player, hooked to an A-D device, like the Canopus/Grass Valley 110, or their 300. Use the Edius software that comes with it, to Capture DV-AVI Type II files w/ 48KHz 16-bit Audio. There will be zero OOS issues.
    Most other equipment and workflows are kludges and seldom work at any level.
    A good workman does not blame his tools. He might blame his choice of tools, but not the tools. Unfortunately, you chose a piece of hardware that doesn't usually work with the included software, and are blaming a great NLE program, because you are trying to work with horribly bad footage.
    Please do yourself a favor. Donate the Dazzle to Goodwill, and look at the Canopus/Grass Valley 110. The price differential is not that great, and you will keep all of your hair.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS just did 34 VHS tapes via the above suggestions (some LP and some EP), and got many hours of usable footage. Not one glitch. No OOS. Every file edited perfectly in PrPro and I delivered 15 DVD-5's, that the client loved. I paid for a Canopus 300 with just my time on one project.
    PPS, please see my post #5 for a link to an article on VOB files.
