DownConverted HD to SD Premiere Pro CS4.1 now what?Please HELP!!!!

Hi I have followed Jeff B's tutorial downconverting HD to SD using Maximum Render etc.. excuse me for being dumb but now what? How do I get that onto DVD in best possible quality. Do I import the avi file into Encore? Or do I Start another Premiere Pro project paste this sequence onto timeline & then export to Encore? What settings do I choose in Encore?
Sorry for being so untechincal but was used to CS3 & SD and am having all kinds of trouble with HD, downconverting & authoring DVDs.
Thankyou

Jan,
I would Import the AVI into Encore as a Timeline, and let Encore do the Transcoding on Automatic. When the authoring is done, Burn to Folder, and use a DVD software player, like CyberLink's PowerDVD to test it. Look especially close at the areas where you have motion, either camera, or subject. How does that look? You could also Burn to Disc, and use an RW, to test in a set-top player (no "coasters" that way). If you have any issues, you can go back, clean the Media Cache and manually set the Transcode settings, but Encore does a good job.
Some feel that other encoders do a better job, than PrPro, or Encore. In that case, you would use one of those to do the MPEG-2 Transcoding. I think that most of those are stand-alones, and not plug-ins for PrPro.
Good luck,
Hunt

Premiere Pro CS4 - Problems with mpeg2 export file

Hello!
I shoud get export a one videofile (mpeg2 D-10, 4:2:2) with 4 audio channels (two stereo track). Audio must be .wav and PCM. The end result shoud be on channel 1 and 2, which has music, effects and narration. Channels 3 and 4, everything else, but without narration. (tv company wants to change narration language).
The problem is that Premiere Pro cs4 connects two separate stereo tracks to one stereo track when I export mpeg2 file. Another problem is that Premiere Pro does not accept PCM audio if I have any multiplexing setting selected. If I select none multiplexing, audio is seperate from the video file.
I have now about 150 test clips with different settings, nothing works...So, please help me! What shoud I do? Is this possible with Premiere Pro CS4 and Adobe Media Encoder? If so, how it can be done?

I don't believe the end result is possible with Premiere Pro alone. You'll have to export out am .m2v file, and two separate .wav files. Then look to other tools to mux them together.

Premiere Pro CS4 - Problem with the monitor program.

Hi. I'm not able solving problems with the monitor using PremiereProCS4. When I drag a photo (also only one photo) in the timeline and play it in the monitor program, vision in the monitor program doesn't run:black monitor or a little part of the photo appear... sometimes distort colours. Asus P5QPRO, Intel 9550 and Sparkle Nvidia GeForce 9800 GTX+ 1024 DDR3; last gpu driver and directX are installed. Different configuration of stratch disks were tested. Where am I wrong?

Dear Bill,
thanks for your answer and your article. I tried with your NTSC 4:3 720x480 PAR 0.9 and, "magically", no more problem!!! I used the script pocedure in Photoshop CS4 to resize my images. Now, before starting my workflow and hoping not to overuse your patience, I would like to indicate you my equipment and my target: I use a Canon Eos 7D (generally for still images, 90% are vertical, and just some videos) and I use Premiere Pro CS4 to burn a dvd (normal, 4.7 Gb or double side, more than 8 Gb) with a 16.9 lcd tv (I'm Italian); my camera save as .jpg and .raw (but why use heavy .raw files if I've to redute to 720x480?!??).
So, according to your "everyone wants the highest quality that they can obtain when doing theri videos..." and "your video project may vary, so you will need to plug in the dimensions for YOUR video project in that case", I've a question: which is the best for me?
And then:
1 - Premiere Pro CS4 havn't a batch or a script procedure for still image like PS (only for videos)!?!
2 - Premiere does'nt allow you to import images like 4.181 Kb (a too large dimension file error appears)!
3 - In the timeline of Premiere, after you dragged images, you can select them and right click to perform "resize to frame size": it seems to run good without problem, but what appen to the photo? Which is it's pixel?
4 - In the general preferences of Premiere you can to optimize rendering for "memory" or not: which is the best for you?
5 - I attached file with a screen of something strange in Premiere: dragging an image (the first of the project) in the timeline, the timeline appears distort (you can see the part in the yellow square): then, when I render the project and play in the monitor program, it becames normal.
Thanks!

Premiere Pro CS4 Export fails with Media Encoder CS4 "Encoding Failed"," Could Not Read From Source.

There has never been a history of Adobe CS3 installation on the brand new MAC Pro I am using prior to installing Master Collection CS4, despite other posts claiming that chief cause of this issue is a previous CS3, Beta or trial installations of previous versions. I simply had a straightforward installation of CS4 and have had trouble since day 1.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Master CS4 three times, two times with the action script cleaner for CS4. I tried changing Adobe Cache folder locations to alternative drives. I ran shift start many times to correct any inconsistencies and corrected for permissions using disk utilities repeatedly. All updates have been installed and I am still getting the same error when exporting my timeline to Media Encoder CS4, be it a large High Definition project or a small one consisting of few stills.
No matter what presets I chose, the job appears as one of the items in the render qeuee of Media Encoder CS4 and sits there with the status WAITING until i hit Start Queue. When I do, it still says WAITING under Status and at the bottom corner of the window it reads : Loading "project name.prproj" and after an average of about 6 minutes, a yellow caution sign appears. No render whatsoever takes place. When I click on the yellow caution sign, it reads a log of all errors in connection with each job, including the ones that have gone before it. Here is one:

END OF ERROR Paste
Please any gurus out there know how to troubleshoot this damn thing on Mac, I really appreciate it. I have not yet encountered any posts of Mac owners with no previous CS3 installation having this issue. I am in the middle of 3 projects with tight deadlines and need your urgent help. THANK YOU!

Hello There,
I resolved the issue through a simple process of elimination. So simple in fact I wonder how I missed it. Since there has been no history of prior CS3 installation on this machine and every conceivable trick was applied to resolve the problem (refer to my original post earlier in the thread) ending in frustration, the problem had to reside in a factor or series of factors that were only present in this machine. Of the two remaining causes different in compare to other machines, I had to look into the possibility of any hardware and/or software conflicts. After all, this very same installation works perfectly fine on my colleague's Apple Macbook Pro and several Windows machines.
It turns out that I had installed Pro Tools on this machine that comes with all kinds of optional plug-ins in the so called ignition pack. One of these optional plug-ins is called IZOTOPE (three varieties include Spectron, Trash and another one that escapes my mind). They were all lite version licenses that would automatically pop up on their own when you would start a program where they had been residing. One such program where an association existed was indeed the Premiere. An annoying dialogue box directing you to buy the full version when you would start the premiere would refuse to go away. Sometimes it would even start on its own culminating in a a permanent dialogue box.
The cause of the problem was right before my eyes and I had overlooked it. Once uninstalled using IZOTOPE clean uninstaller on step 4, the problem was resolved. Projects are now loading very fast into the AME and encoding begins in earnest. I have never had any issues ever since.
Long story short, if you have any plug-ins specially the ones that are loading upon the start of any program or the ones that reside inside the premiere or the ones that start on their own independently, they could be one of the highly probable causes of this error. I have seen other similar posts complaining of plug in folders inside premiere that needed to be moved to resolve the issue for instance the ones that needed to be moved to AE folders. If you are a plug-in admirer, I would suggest to look into them seriously.
On the side note, many combination and causes may lead to the same error. I am not claiming that this is the solution for everyone.
It must also be noted that I applied the trick of creating a shortcut of Premiere (and naming it exactly as such) and dropped it into the Adobe Dynamic LInk folder (even though this was suggested for windows)and have changed the adobe Cache locations to an alternative folder on a separate drive. I haven't been able to establish conclusively if the latter steps are also essential in fixing the error on MAC but I can confirm that since the latter steps were taken before the uninstalling of Izotope plug-ins and i still had issues, probably uninstalling those plug ins or finding a way to move them to a place where they don't interfere (if you absolutely need to keep them) is the one essential step that solved the problem.
Hope this helps.

Premiere Pro CS4 crashing.. Advice please

A customer of mine has CS4 and it constantly crashes. This can be at any point at start up or after 2 -3 hours work. The hardware is as follows.
HP Workstation XW8200 Xeon cpu3.6Ghz, 4GB system Memory DDR2/400Mhz running Win XP sp3. I have upgraded the Graphics card to a Nvidia Geforce 9800GT with the latest driver (6.14.11.9107) I have turned of indexing on the drive. The HDD arrangement is Raid 0 using two disks with a total of 297MB, there are no other HDD and everything uses this volume.
The sound card is the standard on board that is shipped and is Sound Max the driver is the latest available from HP but is dated 2003.
A crash file is generated when the application crashes although I dont have this at the moment.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Pete

In this system the "crashing" can occur at any point, sometimes it happens almost as soon as the application is launched other times it can be minutes or even hours into working. The application stops responding and a message is generated saying that the application has had to close and a log file has been generated. There is no bsod and the rest of the system works ok, it is the application (cs4) that seems to be having the problem.
I had a feeling that the disk setup was not correct but I have inherited this problem so am coming in half way through so to speak. I personally don't have much experience with premiere pro but have ownership of this problem so need to get it sorted. To that end what would be your recommendation regarding the disk setup? Say the most basic that would function without any problems and say a setup that would provide some redundancy.
As far as the system itself is concerned it is a clean install with only AV (sophos) and MS office.
Many many thanks for your response so far.

I am unable to change the preferences on my Premiere Pro CC 2014 program...Please help!

Hello, I use Premiere Pro CC 2014 on my Mac Computer. I am unable to change the settings in the preference of Premiere Pro. When I change a setting and click "OK" Premiere doesn't respond. I can click cancel and the window closes, but when I click ok the window does not close. Since Premiere doesn't respond when I click ok, any setting that I have changed remains the same. I tried reinstalling the program, but after the installation I still have the same issues. Does anyone have a solution?

Hi,
What preferences exactly? Are you trying to change them under Premiere > Preferences? What OS are you on? Can you please attach a screenshot?
Thanks,
Rameez

Premiere Pro CS4 dynamic link to Encore CS4

I'm a newbe and I have a fundamental question about the Premiere Encore workflow. When I edit a project in Premier and I use the File>Dynamic Link>Send to Encore command, I get "Start New Project" from Encore. How do I update the edits I did in Premiere to a current project in Encore? Is there a way to Dynamic Link Premeire edits while I'm in Encore?

I have the exact same problem. I linked them together, but when I made the change in Premier Pro, the changes did not update in Encore. Everything
I read and watch on Adobe says it will happen automatically, but I'm not seeing it happen. Is there any way to replace an existing timeline in Encore with its updated sequence in Premier?

Premiere Pro CS4 / Probleme mit dem Arbeitsbereich / Export funktioniert nicht

Ich möchte meine Sequenz einfach nur exportieren, damit man sie als Clip ansehen kann. Dazu aktiviere ich die Sequenz, gehe auf Datei -> Exportieren -> Media.... und dann passiert nichts. Außer dass der Arbeitsbereich 'deaktiviert', in den Hintergrund geschoben wird, so als ob irgendwo ein Fenster aufgegangen wäre. Ist es aber nicht.
Das Programm "bingt" mich nur an, wenn ich irgendwo hinklicke und ich komm' nur mit Esc wieder in den "aktiven" Arbeitsbereich. Was tun? Workspace reset habe ich schon gemacht.
Ergo, dort wo das Export-Fenster aufgehen sollte, geht keines auf.
Hat 'wer ne Idee?
Vielen Dank schon'mal
PS. Falls es noch eine andere Möglichkeit gibt, die Sequenz zu exportieren, würde das auch sehr helfen. Ist ein wirklich kurzer Clip, den ich einfach als mpeg4 oder ähnlichem haben möchte.

Hat denn keiner 'ne idee?
Falls das ein völlig konfuses Problem ist, sagts bitte. Dann ist zumindest klar, dass ich wirklich zum Support muss.

Premiere Pro constantly crashing on startup. Please help!!

I have a lot of work done on a video I started yesterday, but now Premiere won't start, always crashing on start up and saying that there has been a serious error. I'm so annoyed. Nothing I've read might work has been working to fix. I uninstalled and reinstalled, but that didn't help. I'm using the trial version. Aside from this problem, the program is so great, and I was so happy with it, but now I can't even get all of the stuff I worked so hard on off of it!!

Is your media loaded on an external drive? Try moving it to an internal drive.
If Pr isn't crashing immediately after starting, wait for a while before doing anything in the program (up to several minutes) to see if the Media Pending screen goes away and your clip appears in its place.
Try starting Pr from a shortcut (not by double-clicking a project file) and hold down the Shift+Alt keys until you see the welcome screen. Then select or navigate to your project file and open it.
Try creating a brand-new project and then import your old project into it.
Cheers,
Jeff

Macbook Pro CPU problem - idle % consistently low, please help!

Hi,
I've had my Macbook for about 8 months and never had any problems with it. Recently it started running very slow - freezing, mouse moving slow, typing response slow. I tried some solutions I found online (installing all updates, resetting NVRAM/PRAM, reindexing Spotlight, verifying disk permissions, entering purge in terminal). None of these worked. I checked Activity Monitor and the problem appears to be with the CPU, since every time the computer is running slow the Idle % is under 10%. Out of an abundance of caution, I uninstalled two Chrome plugins which were the only things I've installed in months (Adblocker and Disconnect.) I don't use any games or any other apps - pretty much all I do on my laptop is browse the internet on Chrome and use MS Word. I also have plenty of disk space, so I know that lack of storage is not causing this problem.
The only thing that has worked, at least temporarily, is shutting down, connecting to power source, and holding ctrl option shift power for 10 seconds, then turning back on (this was suggested in another thread on these forums.) The first time I did this it worked like a charm - my computer worked fine afterward, with the idle% back up to well over 90. However, it started running slow again the next day. I repeated the key process and again it seemed fine. Then again it slowed.
At this point I've tried the same solution several times and it doesn't seem to be helping anymore. Upon startup the idle% use in Activity Monitor is anywhere between 4% and 10%. The kernel_task is showing around 350% in Acitvity Monitor.
I have a very important test coming up at the end of the month and I'm studying 16 hours a day, and can't afford to be away from my computer for long. Is there ANYTHING I can do to fix this from home, or does it need to be taken into Genius under Apple care? If so, will they have to send it out and replace the hard drive, or will it be an easy in-store fix?
Any information would be appreciated! I am about sick to death of Apple products (my old first gen Macbook Air had to have its hard drive replaced twice and its screen replaced once.) If I can't find a solution I may have no choice but to up and buy a PC.

The kernel is using excessive processor cycles. Below is a partial list of causes for this condition.
Throttling
When it gets high temperature readings from the hardware, the kernel may try to compensate by interrupting the processor(s) to slow them down and reduce heat dissipation. This condition can be due to an accumulation of dust, to high ambient temperature, or to the malfunction of a cooling fan or temperature sensor. You might, or might not, see messages like the following in the Console window:
SMC::smcHandleInterruptEvent WARNING status=0x0 (0x40 not set) notif=0x0
The timestamps of those messages (if any) indicate the times, since the log was last cleared, when a processor was being throttled due to high temperature.
Note that if the problem is caused by a faulty sensor that reads too high, there may be no actual overheating.
The Apple Hardware Test, though not very reliable, is sometimes able to detect a bad fan or temperature sensor.
Using Apple Hardware Test
Encryption
Transferring large amounts of data to or from an encrypted disk image or FileVault volume may put an extra load on the kernel. If both the source and the destination are encrypted, the load may be doubled. If you transfer data from an encrypted disk image on an encrypted partition to another such image on another encrypted partition, the load may be quadrupled.
This issue probably doesn't affect late-model Macs with an Intel i-series, recent Xeon, or later processor. Those processors support hardware-accelerated encryption. You can determine what kind of processor you have by selecting About This Mac from the Apple menu in the menu bar.
Installed software
User-installed software that includes a device driver or other kernel code may thrash the kernel. Some system-monitoring applications, such as "iStat," can also contribute to the problem. You can test for this possibility by completely disabling or removing the software according to the developer's instructions, or booting in safe mode (with the shift key held down at the startup chime.) Note, however, that disabling a system modification without removing it or booting in safe mode may not be as easy as you think it is.
Corrupt NVRAM or SMC data
In some cases the condition has reportedly been cleared up by resetting the NVRAM or the SMC. I can't confirm.

Exporting from Premiere Pro CS4 using Media Encoder gets stop error

I am trying to export my timeline from Premiere Pro CS4, using the Adobe Media Encoder CS4 to export my timeline as an MPEG2 HDTV 1080 24, and it goes for about fifteen minutes then I get the blue screen and my computer restarts, telling me the program had a stop error. Is there a way to go around this step? Another method to get the mpeg2 without losing quality? Anything I can do?
Please offer any knowledge you have before I scream at my computer again.
Thank you

as I know Adobe products are buggy no matter what hardware you have.
I am sorry, but my experience has been the absolute opposite of what you have heard, or experienced. I have used many, many Adobe programs for almost 2 decades (maybe even more than 2 decades?), and have never observed such. I do have to admit that over those many years, I have always had a "state of the art" computer, but have made plenty of $ using Adobe software. Even with my now aging workstation, things work great. Time to upgrade though.
When troubleshooting issues, they shake out like this:
1.) system
2.) Assets
3.) Project
4.) OE
5.) Bugs
This is after troubleshooting Adobe issues from almost the time that PS hit the PC, when they were only NNTP, in what, 1985?
Now, I am not saying that your issue IS hardware, but only that that is the most likely issue, given a BSOD. Also, system is the #1 cause of issues, so that is where I start.
Good luck,
Hunt
