Premiere Pro - How to make a proxy?

Hello! This is my first time on Adobe forums. I'm using Premiere Pro CS6 on Windows.
I've been given a short film to edit (it's my first go) with the footage originally being: Apple ProRes 4444, 1920x1080, 24fps
As I'm on a PC, I can't export the whole film out in that exact same format -- so I will (later on) be shifting the project to a Mac (and maybe Final Cut Pro) to resolve this.
But in the meantime, I've been asked to export several clips from the movie as proxies, so that VFX artists can create layers that will then be added to the original footage.
The VFX artists require same frame rate (24fps) and same resolution (1920x1080).
I can't see a QuickTime preference that will allow for this.
What are my best options to get them accurate proxies asap? Thank you!

1080i Preset and change the Frame rate to 24 and the fields to progressive (if they want progressive--almost certainly will for VFX)

  • Merge to HDR Pro - how to make it work?

    The 'Automate -> Merge to HDR' feature worked fine during the first few weeks of my Ps CS5 trial but now doesn't work. Photoshop  gets through the Merge to HDR Pro dialog but throws the attached error when returning to Ps.
    If Merge to HDR Pro is chosen on DNG images from Lightroom 2.7 or Bridge  CS5, Photoshop again gets through the Merge to HDR Pro dialog but when creating  the HDR image and returning to Ps seems to throw it away with no resulting error. Photoshop  just stares blankly with no image open.
    I experienced the same error with CS4 and was excited when the Merge to HDR Pro feature on my CS5 trial worked fine, yet with 5 days left in the trial the HDR feature now refuses to cooperate. It previously was working OK from the Automate menu, from Lr 2.7, and from Bridge. What exactly I did to upset Photohop is a mystery.
    I've tried resetting preferences and removing all plugins and extenstions to no avail. Any ideas on how to make Merge to HDR Pro  functional?

    There has been a long and continuous thread regarding CS5 having problems when one tries to save images that have been combined in Merge to HDR Pro.  I have exactly the same problem.  I have been shooting 3 images bracketed -1, 0, +1 or -2, 0, +2.  When I select 3 images in Bridge.  Go to Tools>Ph otoshop>Merge to HDR Pro the computer does its work and produces an image of a combination of the 3.  I can see the image, and in the Layers Panel I see 3 Layers plus one Layer that is entitled Merge to HDR Pro(layer is devoid of image. When I try to Save As Photoshop freezes up.  I have 11 Screenshots to illustrate.  Also Select 3 in BridgeI have tried many different sets of images.  Screenshots:Select 3 images in Bridge CS5Go to Tools>Photoshop>Merge to HDR ProSave as 32 bit image; have tried 16 bit and 8 bit too- still freezes at endSave as BEF 32 bitSaving -Computer is Processing32 bit image saved on screenSave as bef to proper locationPutting in File TitleSelecting 1PHOTOSHOP FROZEN- anything I click on no responsePhotoshop Running but not responding- Frozen; Task Manager says all running here, but no responseHave to end process with task manager.   Thanks, Sam

  • DVD STUDIO PRO - How to make chapters loop?

    Hi
    I'm trying to create a DVD and my last problem I'd like to resolve before the final burn is:
    Is there a way to make the Chapters in my Track Loop?
    My scenario: I have 5 Chapters Total. In my Chpater Menu I created 5 Buttons so you can jump straight to 5 Chapters. But let's say for Button 3 (Chapter 3), when I activate/play it, if I hit SKIP FWD I can skip to Chapter 4, & 5, BUT if I hit SKIP BACK it stops at Chapter 3 (which is where I started - Button 3).
    Is there a way for me to set it so that if I hit Button 3-Chapter 3 from the Chapter Menu - I can access Chapter 1&2 by hitting Skip Backwards while the track is playing? The only way I can think to resolve this is to add Chapter 1&2 after Chapter 5 in my Story List but that means I can only hit Skip Forward and it will eventually stop skipping forward once it hits Chapter 2. So is there a way to loop it???
    Sorry I hope I explained it decent enough for you guys to understand
    NEED HELP ASAP!!! Trying to finish for a client this weekend! :

    Yeahhh so it took me giving up and just burning to DVD and playing it in an actual DVD player to realize that the DVD Studio Pro does its "behind-the-scenes" magic and will have that function automatically figured out for the DVD Player. DO NOT rely on the simulation feature...geez...problem solved.

  • How to make weblogic proxy to work on Sun Java system web server 7?

    Hi Every one,
    I am working on upgrade our Sun one 6.1 webserver to Sun Java system web server 7. Our website uses weblogic server to process jsp, web server only send static pages.

    Quick obvious question - Are you positive you're editing the correct obj.conf? Check the config directory and see if there is a second one called something like <instance>.obj.conf (where <instance> is the name of your configured instance).
    Alternatively you can grep for object-file in the server.xml to see which obj.conf the server is using:
    # grep object-file server.xml
        <object-file>bare-php.obj.conf</object-file>Assuming that you are editing the correct obj.conf file, are you making certain to restart Web Server after making your changes?

    Because its part of the export codec  protocol which would need to allow for it in the header.. andfor the the "player" to read it.

  • How to make it look like the actors are watching TV

    Hi,
    I am looking to add an effect in Adobe Premiere Pro CC to make it look like the actors are watching TV in the dark. Just a soft pulsating, bluish-white light that may vary throughout. Does anyone know how to do this? I've tried scouring the internet but haven't found much. I'm a beginner for sure, but trying to learn!
    Thanks so much,
    -Andy

    In the effects panel type "light" in the search box. This will bring up all the lighting effects in Pr. Adjusr/Lighting or Stylize/Strobe might work for you. There are a lot of adjustments you can key in until you find what suits your needs.

  • CS6 Premiere Pro generic project icons issue

    I installed the new Cloud version of Premiere Pro through my monthly account.  I can open projects from Premiere Pro but if I try to open a project file from a folder, the icon is one of those generic icons.  I've tried using the Open with...and then browse to the Premiere Pro.exe file but it gave an error.  Now, when I try that same process it wants to open it using Adobe Reader X.  I deleted Adobe Reader X and tried again and now it wants to try to open my project files from my folder using Windows Media Center.  Huh?  Weird.  Any ideas anyone?
    At first all of .prproj files received the Adobe Reader X icon.  Now they all are showing the Windows Media Encoder icon.  I can still open them all from within Premiere Pro just fine but would still like them to show the correct Adobe Premiere Pro icon show that I can double click them and they'll open in Premiere.
    Harold House

    Yes, it was/is a Win7-64 install.  Perhaps I'll try a install repair from the Adobe installer thingy.   See if that works.  Gasp.
    Update:  The error message I get when I try to open one of my many CS3, CS4,or CS5 projects, be they PS, Premiere, or AE, by double clicking those older projects is this:
    Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS3\Adobe Premiere Pro.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.
    Not sure what to make of that error message as I uninstalled all my older CS Suite programs after I installed the new CS6 stuff.  I got the same error message when trying to open up an older PS project but instead of CS3 it said CS5.5 in the above error message.  Weird.

  • Premiere Pro CC won't import video files

    Two days ago I used the free trial of Adobe Premiere Pro CC to make a video. Everything was working fine, and I saved the project so I could work on it again later. Today I tried to open Premiere Pro and it told me that my trial had expired and that I needed to buy it. I bought the monthly plan for Premiere Pro CC and opened up my previous project to continue editing. However, when I opened it, all of the files on the dashboard were red and it says "Media Offline". I tried to locate the media files but then a notification pops up that says "Error Message: Format unsupported or files damaged". The video files I'm trying to use are .mov, so it should be working like it did two days ago. It lets me import pictures, but no video. I could really use some help with this, it's a project for work. Thanks so much

    Hi bschmus12,
    Try this, rename the folder where your media is and then try to relink. Does that work for you?
    Thanks,

  • How to make IIS plug-in do STICKY load balancing

    There are two classes of scalable services: pure and sticky. A pure service
    is one where any instance of the application can respond to client requests.
    A sticky service is one where a client sends its requests to the same
    instance; those requests are not redirected to other instances.
    It seems to me that weblogic IIS proxy plug-in does not support the sticky
    load balancing.
    Could someone give me some information on how to make the proxy sticky?
    Is there configuration parameters for this?
    Thanks,
    -Lei

    I set the cluster.
    It seems to me that there is some problem with the Set-Cookie mechanism of
    the plug-in.
    Sometime it set the cookie in my browser, sometime it is not.
    Even from the wlproxy.log, I could set something like
    Fri Aug 03 17:56:12 2001 Hdrs to
    client:[Set-Cookie]=[AribaNode=O2tII92qHlP2tpZjUV0m5ued1s6X028cUPu24QcGj1Q25
    AE5VXOd!1782877802312707887!ltang.ariba.com!8001!7002; domain=ariba.com;
    path=/]
    But the cookie is not set in my browser, what might be wrong here?
    Thanks,

    I do believe that this will not work since if clustering is not enabled, a
    cookie will not be set on the browser that contains the primary and
    secondary server.
    You are specifying two different ports in your servers. You need to use
    clustering in order to get this functionality with the plugin.Furthermore,
    you will achieve fail-over.

    I add the following in iisproxy.ini
    # This file contains initialization name/value pairs

    WebLogicCluster=ltang.ariba.com:8001,achu.ariba.com:7001

    I use SesssionServlet.java as an example
    When I involk http://proxy/test1/SessionServlet, I always get 1
    if I use
    http://proxy/test1/SessionServlet:AribaNode=................................
    I could see the session becomes sticky.
    If I do not want to use URL rewriting, what should I do in order to makethe
    session STICKY
    for this example.

    If you leave the CookieName untouched on the WebLogic side, then there
    should be no reason to make the change in the plug-in.
    But yes, you need to make sure the cookie names are the same.

    "Mark Vaughn" <[email protected]> wrote in message

    Actually, you also need to make sure you set the "CookieName" in theplugin.
    That let's the plugin read the cookie set by WebLogic to determine
    who
    the
    primary and secondary servers are for that session. Otherwise, theplugin
    has no
    way of knowing if you are establishing a new session or returning to
    an
    existing
    one. The cookie will tell it if you have a current session and who
    it
    should
    send you to for continuing that session, or failing that session
    over.

    Eric Gross wrote:
    Without having clustering enabled, you will not get Sticky load

    You need to have clustering so that a cookie is sent back to the
    client
    that
    contains information about where it's session is located.
    Otherwise,
    you
    are just going to get round-robin each time.

  • Premiere Pro 2: Replacing SD with HDV

    Hi all,
    I have a foreign project on hand which involves shooting, editing and finally finishing the project at the site itself. I have Canon HDV Camera. I intend to shoot on HDV and give the final project on HDV DVD.
    Softwares: Premiere Pro 2, After Effects 6.5, Photoshop CS2
    Now, the place where I will be working does not have strong computer which would allow me to work on HDV format. But I can edit on SD format on that computer. Now, I am keen on giving the final DVD on HDV. So this is what I am planning to do.
    -         Shoot on HDV format.
    -         Down-convert to SD 16:9 while capturing on the computer (Camera has facility to down-convert to SD).
    -         Edit and finish entire project in SD 16:9 at the site.
    Once the entire project is finished in SD 16:9, I would come back to my studio
    -         Recapture the entire footage in HDV again
    -         Replace the SD (*.avi) files with HDV (*.mpg/*.m2v) files in premiere pro 2.
    -         Make a final DVD in HDV and send them back the HDV DVD.
    My Important question is: Is this possible to do? Is the direction of my planning rite?
    Kindly inform me as I would be shooting in the coming week.
    thanks in advance

    give the final project on HDV DVD.  
    You'll need Blu-ray for high-def delivery.

  • Premiere Pro CS3 - How to Save a Final Project to Make Changes to Afterwards

    OK, I just registered to the forum and this is my first post/question.
    I'm fairly new to Premiere Pro editing
    , and I wondered if there was a way to save the whole edited project/sequence to an external drive in case the client wanted changes to the project after they had viewed it.
    I edit mostly weddings, so the projects are anywhere from 1hr 30m to 1hr 50m. I've watched all the lynda.com tutorials on Premiere, and I know about saving the final project as an ISO image file or as DVD folder, etc.
    Also, I thought I remembered hearing something about being able to 'delete' the footage that wasn't used in the project too, and just saving the edited project somehow? I just thought I'd ask before I go ahead and delete all the footage that pertains to this edit. I've made an ISO file, but it doesn't look like Premiere will load it; nor will it load the video_ts files/folder.
    Anyway, so my questions are:
    1. Is there a way to load an ISO file to make editing changes?
    2. If not, then how could I save the whole project/sequence in order to load it back into Premiere to make any changes to the original edit?
    3. Does anyone here use Premiere for wedding edits? And if so, how do you 'save' projects for the longterm, in case you wanted to make changes to it?
    4. Once you have an ISO image file saved, how do you burn it through Encore? Or am I forced to use the Roxio Creator program?
    I guess that's it for now. I'm sure there are many more questions that I need answered, but I'll save them for later. :-)
    Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!

    I do a LOT of weddings. Here's the process I've come up with over the years.
    First, make a window dub of the whole thing. Sit down in front of a properly calibrated TV and home theater system and watch it from beginning to end. Make notes on what needs correction (here's where the visible timecode comes in handy) - music selections, audio levels, clips to be trimmed, color corrections, misspellings, etc.
    Then, make those changes.
    Next, author the final DVD for client review. Send that out with appropriate paperwork for a signed approval. Never delete/archive a project without client approval. Now, because some clients would take literally months to approve a project, I instituted a time limit of three weeks. After that, any project is considered approved and may be archived. I make this very clear, with the deadline in writing, when I send out the review sample.
    If the video comes back for changes, things are still in place and I just make the requested changes, sending out another review copy with a two week limit this time. When an approval comes back or if a time limit passes, I finish up the project.
    I make any remaining client copies, plus one copy of the DVD to go on a shelf. I also make an ISO for storage on an internal hard drive, to be moved later to an external hard drive at the end of every year. This gives me two master copies of the finished DVD.
    I then save the project file, music and other audio selections, pictures and graphics to a CD (DVD if more space is needed, but this is rare). I make two copies in case one goes bad, and file them by groom's last name in a small CD file case. The previews and conformed files can always be rebuilt, so there's no need to save them. The actual media can be recaptured from tape, so they just get put on a shelf.
