Premiere Pro CS6 - Video Output (GPU) bad quality...

Hi,
I have a question about Adobe Premiere Pro CS6...
I have installed the Trial-Version and use a BM Intensity Pro to output Full-HD 1080i (50, Interlace) trough HDMI Video-Output...
The Video-Output works correctly, but if I enable the "GPU"-Acceleration (CUDA), and scale or transform a Video (for example a 3D-Transformation) the Quality of the transforming is very bad! (jerky, not "smooth", Interlace-Lines etc...)
If I deactivate the GPU-Acceleration (Software only Mode), everything is smooth and looks good!
Also if I render the Timeline, all tranformations are also smooth, only the Realtime GPU Rendering looks very bad....
What can I do?

Hi :-)
I have tested it now with another Grafikcard!
And it is exactly the same problem
I have found out, that the GPU makes a delay, after a few seconds the Transformation looks smooth/bicubic!
But on relatime-Playback its bad...
My English isnt very good, so I have some problems to describe what I mean...
If you stop the playback, it takes 2 Sekonds and then the image looks good!
But dureing the playback its very bad quality, false Interlace-Lines etc...
here are two screenshots:

Premiere Pro CS6 and CC with bad quality and incorrect colors in output video

Hi everyone!
I'm frustrated with my results after exporting a video with Adobe Premiere Pro (both CS6 and CC).
The color of the video output is slightly different to the original file (i've checked if it was a problem with my video player, but no, i've tested the video with WMP and others with no success).
Also the video quality is a little bad compared to the original file (i even tried to use frame blending once).
Notice that i'm not using any effects or anything alike, and i'm a begginer in video editing.
These are the parameters from the original video (made by Media Info software):

I'm exporting the video using almost the same parameters from the original file.
Here's a screen shot of my settings in Premiere:
As you can see in the printscreen, the settings only differ from the original file parameters in the bit rate (which i raised a little),
the TV standard (which i have no ideia what it changes), the level of H.264 (which i raised from 4.0 to 4.1, 5.0 and 5.1), and the bit rate encoding (which i've tried using CBR, VBR 1, and VBR 2).
Just for my curiosity...why these numbers in orange are so extensive? I mean, the original video is only 01:35:30:06 in final output (which is correct).
Notice that i do not use key frame distance (as i don't know what it does).
If i'm doing something wrong, please tell me.

Well if i do that, the video will raise up GBs larger (and that is really bad).
Why is it really bad?
Its a fact of digital life. High datarate = quality.
example ...even the Youtube preset is in the 8mpbs area.
...and you are exporting 1 hr 35mins of media.

Premiere Pro CS6 - video noise in the exported file

Hi everyone,
Im trying to make the transition from FCP7 to Premiere Pro CS6. I edited my first project with Premiere Pro and exported the sequence. However I noticed that the exported file had more video noise than the original clips.
The material is shot by Canon 5D Mark III and edited natively in the Premiere's timeline. Then they are exported to ProRes 422. After noticing the noise I exported the sequence as "match the sequence settings" and it created the .mpeg file. Same thing, there was noise. I then tried another other formats of that same clip and transcoded the Mark III footage to Xdcam EX 1080p before sending to premiere. Same thing, no matter what I did.
The only way i got the exported file to look the same as original file, was to convert the files before sending to ProRes 422, then edit those files in Premiere in the sequence thats settings are XDCAM EX 1080p and then to export it to ProRes422.
Do you have any thoughts for this. The noise I'm talking about is not a huge amount of noise but definitely noticeable if you look the FULL-HD material.
I really hope there is some setting I missed. Im using Mac pro 2009 and Macbook pro 2011.
Thanks

Hi Thomas
Try exporting by enabling "Render at maximum depth" and " Use maximum render quality" in the export dialogue window.

Right sequence and export settings in Premiere Pro CS6, video with still images

I am trying to run a video on my website (self hosted). This video, made with Premiere Pro CS6, consists of still images with different video effects.
This video is only 50 seconds, but when I transform this in the ogg, webm and mp4 format, I obtain file with large size and the quality is not good.
Could you please guide me to find out the right sequence and export settings in Premiere Pro CS6 to obtain a video for the best possible quality on the web?
A precise description of the settings would be awesome.
Thank you
Silvia

Make the export setting the resolution you want to use on the web.
Make the sequence settings accordantly to these export settings

Premiere Pro CS6 Video Startup Problem

I just updated to Premiere Pro CS6. On one of my systems it would not load because of the following error:
Adobe Premiere Pro Startup Error:
Adobe Premiere Pro could not start any capable video play modules. Please update your video display drivers and start again.
Here are my PC specs (not that beefy but handled CS5.5 fine):
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
Intel Core i7 870 @ 2.93 GHz

Anyone else getting this or has a solution?

Nevermind I fixed it. If anyone has the same error, just run as administrator FTW.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Video Playback Problem/Bug

I have been editing a video for the past few weeks, but recently, after I have been editing for a few minutes, all of a sudden my video won't play in the playback window. When I hit the play button (or the space bar) it does nothing - just sits there. All of the clips are rendered (with the green bar), but I cant see my changes because it doesn't play. I am even able to move the cursor along the timeline and it will show the video in the playback window, but it won't play back in real time. Like I said I have been using Premiere Pro CS6 for a while and havent had this problem until now. Also, when I drag a clip into the preview window, it doesn't play either (but I am able to move the cursor along the timeline). I have to shut down Premiere and open it up again, then it works for a few minutes again, and then the same problem occurs. Please help! The specs for my lap top are as follows: Macbook Pro Retina Display, 2.6 GHZ i7, 16GB RAM, 500GB SSD

Do you ONLY have that single 500gig drive?
If yes, you are below specification... which requires a separate drive for video files
An EXAMPLE concerning trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the
orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do
Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct
the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with
your video file at the same time as all the other work
You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another
very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more on partitions) with Windows (or Mac OS)
and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is
not slowed down by trying to do everything
Do not try to use a USB2 external drive for video editing, the USB2 file transfer speed
is too slow
External eSata or USB3 are both fast enough for video editing... eSata is better -

Premiere Pro CS6 very bad YouTube quality.

Hello,
Before asking me to look further on google because there may be my answer, i say that i've searched/posted/asked everywhere i could.
I use fraps to record some in-game footages, the file bitrates are huge 500-900M, i then render them in premiere pro as i need to add an intro/ending and then i upload them (or i'm hardly trying to) on youtube.
The thing is I've used every setting I could ever find, contacted youtube users who managed to do it right, but after I upload the video on youtube, the quality is absolutely horrible.
Right after i render i check the video, the quality is perfect, after that I upload it to youtube and after processing the video, it looks like it has 1M bitrate, laggy.
Can anyone please help me to solve this problem?
Thanks!
RAW clip bitrate: 500-900M
Render settings from Premiere Pro CS6:
Format: H264
Resolution: 1280x720
Frames per second: 30
Field Order: Progressive
Aspect: Square Pixels (1.0)
TV Standard: NTSC
Profile: High
Level: 5.1
Render at Maximum depth: Checked
Bitrate settings:
Encoding: VBR, 2 pass
Maximum bitrate: 20M
Minimum bitrate: 20M
(Tried with smaller bitrates too, like 8/10/15, the output file wasnt so clear but youtube would still kill it)

OK. Here is what I have done.
I took took your crisp video of game play and dropped it on the New Item button to create a sequence. I checked the sequence and saw that the video was 1280X720 using 30 frames per second. Not 29.97, but 30. That could be relevant.
Then I took this screen shot of the video playing in Windows Media Player and in the Program Monitor of Premiere Pro. I see some degradation even at 30Mb/s which suprised me to be honest with you. I read through the YouTube help and they recommed 30Mb/s for 720p so I exported at 30Mb/s.
The easiest place to spot the degradation is in the space above the letter E (before the CK) in the upper left of the frame. Some of the texture is missing.Not much. It is ever so much softer. But I don't believe that it will prove to be relevant.
So, now it is time to upload to YouTube and see what happens.
Darn, I have no way to play the YouTube video at exactly 1280X720. I just have full screen and the larger box. Is there a way to do that? Other than setting my monitor for 720p or playing it on an old HDTV?
Oh well, here it is. Reasonably clean going in. How about coming out? Not so much. I am not happy with it. I am going to try again using CBR just for the heck of it. Crud. That didn't help. See for yourself.
I am stumped. Somebody with the capability to see it at the exact size speak up please. How is it done. (I use Chrome.)
Edit: I found a YouTube resizer that sets the medium box bigger - to 1280X720. I knew it had to be possible. But I am certainly not happy with the changes YouTube makes to a 30Mb/s file.
I am off to go try Vimeo.
Edit:
I am not happy with this either.
There is something about this video that makes it difficult for them to encode it. I have no idea what it might be. Perhaps the more technical among us can provide answers. It is not horrible, and it is better than 480p, but it isn't great.

Audio and video not synchronized when exporting from Premiere Pro CS6

Hi
We have made a project in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 that´s intended to be exported to DVD (it´s a weeding). We are working with NTSC DV Widescreen. The exporting is 720x480
We have 2 audio lines activated and sounding on this project.
The question is:
When exporting the entire video (the entire timeline sequece) using Adobe Media Encoder to formats like H.264 (NTSC DV Widescreen)... Quick Tile Movie or AVI without compression (we tested these formats) the 2 audio channels get unsynchronized from the video. The same problem occurs if we get a direct link of the timeline from Premiere to Encore.
And Inside Premiere Preview audio is preety correct.
Does anyone here are getting such problem?
Also..can I ask another question (as I´m not expert on video production)?. What´s the best format for our purpose? Export a video to be played to DVD (we record weedings, birthdays..social events). No problem the time to export. We´d like the best quality for output.
Thank you for the help
Gustavo.

Hi John and techkid123
We have 4 cameras here. 1 is Sony model HD1000 (since it works with Mini-DV cassete we need to capture the image via Firewire). 2 cameras are Sony HD2000 (it generates *.MPEG files if I remember well). And 1 camera is a Panasonic AG-DVC7 (it generates *.MTS files)
We start a new project using the Standard NTSC Widescreen 48Khz format. When we drag to the timeline for example the MTS file...Premiere ask us if we want to Keep and Change timeline to suit the file specification. Anyway we always have 1 or 2 camera files that has a yellow line over timeline.
But I renders correct...no problem to edit...and we had no problem with Premiere CS5.5 :/
We are downloading the latest update of Premiere. I´ll make some test and publish here if the problem persist.
Thank you a lot for the help
Gustavo.

Error during start up of Premiere Pro CS6. "... could not find any capable video play modules..."

During start up of Adobe Premiere Pro CS6, I get the following error message. "Adobe Premiere Pro could not find any capable video play modules. Please update your video display drivers and start again." This does not occur on After Effects, and the program runs successfully. Premiere Pro will not open, and in the start up window the last thing the status line states before the error message occurs is: "Loading ImporterQuikTime.prm"
I have added an NVidia GPU card to my system and have installed the latest video drivers from the NVidida website (GeForce 310.70). This did not help. I have QuikTime on my computer, but am not sure if it needs to be in a certain file location.
I have also gone in to BIOS after installing the GPU and disabled internal graphics, but that did not help either. Not sure what to do next. Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Rhoadman

Thank you everyone for the replies. Although I don't have a laptop, the following seems to work.
Solution 1
On Windows 7, right-click the shortcut to Adobe Premiere Pro, and choose Run as Administrator.
Using this method, Premiere Pro opened successfully. Using the shortcut directly, the error persists. It looks like we will just have to open the program using this method.
Many thanks for the replies.

Exported Interlaced Video by SDK Exporter plugin for premiere pro cs6

Premiere Pro cs6 - Workspace video pane remains blank when trying to view imported files

Hello,
I'm currently working in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6. When I import my media into my workspace and drag it onto the timeline, the preview box where you can review your cut video remains black. Double clicking on the imported file gives the same result. I was initially importing .jpg files (about 300kb size for each) so I tried importing various other image formats - .png, .tiff, etc... I have even imported a movie file into my scene to determine whether the issue was with my content format. With the video, the audio plays fine, but the video remains blank in the preview box. I have tried rendering my workspace and changing my initial project settings, but to no avail. I went into my preferences for Premiere and from what I can determine, everything looks fine.
I'm running the software on an HP Pavilion, Windows 7 intel i7, 8gb ram, with a nvidia 650M 2GB card. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
Have you tried to change your Video Renderer? It would be under Project > Project Settings > General. Switch the option to Mercury Playback Engine software only and see if it helps.
Thanks,
Rameez
