Premiere Pro CS6 H264 Blu-ray encoder does not do MBAFF interlace

I have been testing the Premiere Pro CS6 H264 Blu-ray encoder with some HDV video 1440x1080i25 top field first and I have found that it always encodes as PAFF even when the MBAFF box is ticked. I analysed the stream with h264_parse and found that the mb_adaptive_frame_field_flag is set to 0 and that the pic_struct flag alternates between 1 and 2. These indicate that the encoder is using PAFF when the MBAFF flag is ticked.
The CS5 encoder does work as it sets the mb_adaptive_frame_field to 1 and the pic_struct to 3 which is correct for top field first.
There is another problem in that Premier pro does not recognise field order of correctly encoded MBAFF video. It reports tff video as progresive and bff as top top field first.
MBAFF generaly gives higher quality pictures.

For obvious reasons I do not like to be constanly connected to the internet with my Video Edting PC.
There are no 'obvious' reasons not to stay connected (if you know what you're doing), and in fact very good reasons to do so (more so if you're a Creative Cloud subscriber).
Having said that, there is a way to get the PDF to come up when you hit F1, instead of the online help.  I just don't recall where that setting is.

  • CS6 H264 Blu Ray Export Dolby Digital not bitrate selection Issues

    Hello,
    if we try to export in H264 for Blu Ray Format and switch to Dolby Digital the bitrate selection vanishes from the setting:
    But if we deselect the audio export and select it again the bitrate can be set correctly.
    Seems to be a small error in the media encoder CS6

    I'm seeing the same thing here.

  • Pioneer Blue ray burner does not work in a Mavericks.

    MY Pioneer Blu Ray burner BRD-RW 206D does not work and I get this message (The disc can’t be used because the disc drive is not supported (error code 0x80020025). I have the last firm ware update in it. It worked fine in Mountain Lion but not in Mavericks.

    Hi, everyone
    just wanted to report I've been successfully using my Pioneer BDR-208D for a couple of days now with no further problems.
    I power-cycled and put to sleep the MacPro a few times, and burned a few DVDs and a couple of BD-RE disks.
    So, to summarize my experience:
    Pioneer BDR-208DBK in second (lower) bay
    Mavericks on Mac Pro (early 2008)
    Superdrive in upper bay
    Drive not appearing in eject menu button, alt-eject on keyboard
    dialog pop-up: "The disc can’t be used because the disc drive is not supported (error code 0x80020025)".
    What I did:
    Booted back into Lion
    Inserted non-blank media in the BD drive (a CD in my case)
    Rebooted into Mavericks with the CD still inside the drive
    System found the drive and enable eject both on keyboard and menu
    Disabled "Put hard disks to sleep..." in Energy Saver prefpane - this is what I believe stopped the seemingly random disappearing of the drive
    Hope this helps...

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Project Manager gives error & will not manage project - OS X Lion 10.7.5

    Premiere CS6 project manager reports  an error and will not manage my project. I have tried several times with both "Create New Trimmed Project" and " Collect Files and Copy to New Location". I have also tried to manage the project with options checked and unchecked (Include Preview Files, Include Audio Conform Files, Rename Media Files to Match Clip Names). Every time I try to manage the project, the process takes a few hours and then gives an error asking me to try again.
    The project is 90 minutes long and uses multiple footage formats:
    Sony FS100
    Sony NEX7
    Sony NEX-5n
    Canon C300
    Canon 5DmkII
    Panazonic HVX200
    My computer is:
    Processor  2 x 2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
    Memory  12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB
    Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)
    Is this a bug, or are there specific things I can do to troubleshoot the problem? I have read of issues with AVCHD. I have confirmed all of my AVCHD folders are intact. Any other Ideas?
    THANKS!

    I have this same problem on a Mac with CS6. I was simple trying to archive a project using the "collect files" option. After five or six hours of troubleshooting (Thanks Adobe) I have narrowed it down to MXF clips that came over in a Final Cut EDL (Projects created in PP with MXF files seem to be fine).  In other words, as I was transitioning from FCP to Premiere Pro, I sent four or five projects out of FCP as an EDL, opened them in PP and continued to edit.  It seemed to work really well until I attempted to archive my media.  If there was a single raw MXF file in the timeline (Not the project panel for some reason) the Project Manager would give me the standard error:"An unknown error occurred during the Project Manager operation. Please save your project and retry the operation.".
    I have found two solutions that seem to work, both of which are a pain in the ax. 
    Option 1: Save the original project file only to an archive folder.  Then delete all the old timelines from the project, and save the project with a new name.  Create a new timeline and just drag all the raw video and audio into it. (Project Manager needs a timeline of some sort to archive) Then use the Project Manager to archive the modified project.  If I need the project in the future, I'll need to open the original PP project and relink all the media from the archived "media only" project folder. 
    Unbelievably, if you were to take this route and then re-edit the project in the future, it looks like you would run up against the same archiving issue AGAIN next time (At least using CS6). You'd have to go through all the steps above to archive it a second time. Depending on the size of your project, you may want to take option 2 and get the pain over with once-and-for-all.
    Option 2: If you only have a couple of MXF files in the timeline (in my case I had mostly renders from AE by the time I was done and THAT raw project had archived in AE just fine) you can export the raw MXF files to another format, then replace the media in your project panel.  Finally, use the Project Manager to archive the project like you should have been able to in the first place if Adobe had written the code well in the first place!

  • Blu-Ray Creator does not seem to work- has anyone used with success

    Hi abhi.p,
    Thank you very much for your kind reply.
    Yes, it does show the checkbox as checked if I use value="#{true}". However, it is checked permanently, user cannot uncheck it.
    That's why I used the bean variable "#{pageFlowScope.fullExpressionEditor.categorySel.selected}".
    The variable 'selected' is set to Boolean.TRUE in the bean. But in the UI the checkbox unchecked, strange!!

  • Premiere Pro to Adobe Audition Dynamic link does not work. Cannot edit audio in Audition.

    Trying to edit Audio from Premiere Pro within Audition thru the Dynamic link but it does not fire up Audition to edit. Seems like a common problem/bug. But no one has posted a solution. Please Help
    -Windows 7
    -Premiere Pro CC 2014
    -Adobe Audition CC 2014

    You dont understand it was all working fine in the previous Adobe versions. matter of fact you can go on youtube and see a couple of videos that shows the work flow between Premiere Pro and audition by way of Dynamic link. If you edit a video clip in Premier Pro and want to add some music or simply edit the audio that is contained in the video there was a time within Premiere Pro you can just right click "Edit in Adobe Audition" and Audition would open with the audio clip in place. Much in the same way Premiere Pro works with After Effects thru the Dynamic Link. The Dynamic Link is the bridge between applications to work with each other. For some reason Premiere Pro and Audition Dynamic Link is not working properly.

  • Blu-Ray audio does not loop properly on simple menu

    I have authored a Blu-Ray disc using CS4 of Encore. Each menu is very simple: No motion elements. I have added a short clip of music to each (about 30 seconds). This is already transcoded AC3 audio (to ensure it matches the audio on the main movie(s)).
    When playing back in test mode, the menus play fine. However, on a PS3 (the only BD player I have), it plays a few seconds (up to 10 seconds) of the audio and then loops. The false loop point occurs at different times on each menu.
    The loop point on the menus is 0. The audio length is set to 30 seconds in the project and the menu is set to loop forever.
    Anyone else come across this?
    Thanks

    Seems that this is a bug (rather bad one, actually), but there is a work around of sorts.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Generates HUGE file - Encoder settings help please

    Using PPCS6 to create a 6 minute AVI file. The source video is an AVI screen capture from Camtasia for an application that is spread across 3 widescreen monitors, making the screen/video resolution 5760x1200 with a frame rate of 30. I need to output the same resolution/aspect ratio (Camtasia will not do this, hence my use of Premiere).
    The initial screen capture is just under 2GB.
    The AVI output from Media encoder is 45GB which is just too big to use.
    Is there some settings I can use that will create a file of approximately the same size (under 3GB) and still look as sharp as the original capture?
    My current encoder settings are:
    Codec: Microsoft Video 1
    Quality: 90
    Width: 5760
    Height: 1200
    Frame Rate: 30
    Field Order: Lower First
    Aspect: Square Pixels (1.0)
    Depth: 8-bit
    Keyframe Interval: 8
    Optimize Stills checked.

    Camtasia files use their own TechSmith codec (TSCC) which is highly optimized for screen captures where hardly anything changes from frame to frame, and realistically you can't beat it with any of the default codecs, which are designed for full-motion video. With MV1 that file size is about what I'd expect from such a massive resolution. Also, do you really need 30fps? Most screencaps will look OK at 15 or even 12 at a push.
    You should be able to encode back to AVI/TSCC if you have Camtasia on the same machine as Prem, if not you can download the codec pack for free from Techsmith's website.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Wrong Media Interpretation. Quicktime, Not MPEG4

    Hey so here's my issue. I can import two of the same files in different locations and hit properties in Premiere CS6, one will show the video as a Quicktime movie (with green previews and a very weird frame rate such as 0.13 fps. Where as I import one in another location that shows in the properties as a MPEG4 movie it has excellent fast previews with no issues.  and the correct frame rate. Any idea how to fix this error? I have tried in the Modify>Interpret footage and there isnt an option to change the "Movie Type".
    Thanks!

  • Premiere pro CS6.0.3 keeps crashing when exporting to H.264

    Good day everyone,
    I am trying to export my timeline using some of the H.264 setting and it keeps crashing on me. Not all of the H.264 like the Apple and Android settings.  Those work fine.  But trying to export to  H.264 Youtube (any presets), H.264 HD 1080I 29.97 and HD 1080P 29.97 it will process to around 80%-95% than crash.  It gives me an error message than gives me three files that can help with finding the problem.
    I have tried to export using Premiere and also AME.  They both crash at the same point. 
    I have tried creating new projects, new sequences and such.  No luck.
    Currently I am using Premiere Pro CS6.03, Adobe Media Encoder CS 6.03 as well.  Windows 7 64bit, Intel Core [email protected] with 8GB ram.  My video card is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670.  Any advice would be most helpful and appreciated.
    Thanks

    I solved what might be a similar problem last evening by lowering the speed of my i7-3055K (nominal 3.9GHz) to 4.2GHz from 4.5GHz.
    My symptoms were similar: new PC build (10 days old); crashing or blue screens about 1 minute into a 3 minute Premiere export or AME render, Win7 Pro.  The system had previously been very stable.  At first I suspected an H264 codec problem or an iTunes/Quicktime incompatibility but when an AVI render using the NTSC DV Widescreen preset crashed it broadened my search for solutions.  Mercury GPU render on/off did not fix the crash problem.
    The render last evening was probably the first time that my new CPU was seriously stressed.  Lowering the CPU speed was the quick solution.  Overclocking sites/forums probably have tips on stress tests, memory tests, voltage tweaking, etc but as long as the system is stable I'll probably be satisified with the slower CPU solution. 
    The CPU cooling is the Intel stock fan.  32GB of Corsair memory is running at its rated PC1600.  CPU and memory voltages are the defaults, i.e., no tweaking.  Intel DZ77RE-75K motherboard. EVGA GTX680 FTW+ 4GB at its defaults, i.e., no overclocking/tweaking.  1000 watt power supply , which is probably overkill but it's what I had lying around (I have an almost identical setup (GTX460 rather than GTX680) which runs fine at 4.2GHz with a 700-watt PSU -- but I've never stressed that 2nd PC with an Premiere/AE/AME render).

  • 720p 120fps clip from GoPro Hero3 Black not recogniced by Premiere Pro CS6

    Hello. My clip from Hero3 Black Gopro isn't recognized as a 120fps clip. I've read people saying that this is normal because premiere pro won't recognize them for anyone.. But it does, look at this clip:
    http://youtu.be/YeHCUNH4KcM
    At around second 30 it shows how it recognizes that the file is actually 120fps, in that same screen, I get that the file is 59,94fps and not 120fps and it really is.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thank you.

    I've created a few sample files for anyone interested. These files are straight from the camera.
    Here is a 1280 x 720 at 60 fps: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/92935787/1280x720%2059fps.MP4
    Here is a 1280 x 720 at 120 fps: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/92935787/1280x720%20119fps.MP4
    Here is a 1280 x 960 at 100 fps: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/92935787/1280x960%20100fps.MP4
    Import these into Premiere Pro CS6 or even Media Encoder CS6 or After Effects, have a look at the metadata and both of the 720p videos will show up as 60 (59.94) fps. I tried this in Premiere Pro CS5 and had the same result.

  • Premiere Pro CC 2014 and Medie Encoder CC 2014 problem

    Hello there,
    Every time that I am willing to export my project my Premiere Pro CC 2014 stop responding all together. I tried the short cut (Commend+M) or going through the Manu bar. the result is the same, Premiere Pro CC 2014 just freezes and does not respond to anything till I force quit it and restart it allover again. I tried exporting from Premiere Pro it self, without using Media Encoder, but the problem remains the same.
    I am using the new Mac Pro. I heard Adobe Premiere Pro is experiencing  problems with the New Mac Pro. Is that true? Or is there other issue?
    Thank you and looking forward to hear back,
    Maruf

    I am having a similar problem.
    Premiere Pro CC 2014 suddenly decided to crash every time I export to either Adobe Media Encoder or within Premiere itself.
    The encode will usually go for 5-10 minutes before the programs either spits out a "serious error has occurred" window, or it just sits there frozen until I force quit.
    I did find a work-around for the moment. If I open AME and FILE > OPEN, select my project and then the sequence I want, AND put it in Software render mode, it will work.
    My timeline is 2K, 58 minutes in 23.976
    Only effects applied are Lumetri LUTs - no third party.
    I've exported as recently as a week ago without issue.
    Running OSX 9.5 on an X99 board
    3.75 GHz 8-core
    64GB 2400 MHz RAM
    EVGA Titan Black 6GB
    Because I can get my renders out, I am not too concerned. Either there is something wonky with my timeline that screws with any graphics enabled rendering, or there is a bug that is have the same effect. I will try rendering on another of my edit bays that utilizes a GTX 580 that I KNOW works. The Titan is pretty new to my workflow.
    Thanks Adobe, for checking this out.

  • Is Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 compatible with Yosemite?

    I'm considering buying a copy of premiere pro cs6 as I prefer a copy that I can use forever without a subscription to CC and also be able to use without an internet connection as I am mostly without internet. I just recently updated my iMac to Yosemite. I'm curious if I can install a new copy of Premiere Pro cs6 onto Yosemite? Also, if not does Adobe plan to update Premiere Pro CS6 and keep it compatible with Apple's new OS releases? Or will they only be focusing on the CC apps?

    It is unlikely  that CS6 will get any updates. I beliee that has been answered/ advised by Adobe
    Someone else may answer from experience if CS6 plays nicely with Yosemite
