Premiere pro v2 to photoshop CS2 file - help?

Yesterday I wanted to see if I could edit the *.avi video clip in Photoshop CS2 - so in Premiere, I tried exporting this .avi clip as a quick time movie file which I then tried to open in my photoshop CS2, but it would not even open.
How do I save an .avi video clip in PPro so I can open and edit (like cut out a wall from a room, and put a big stained glass window in place where the wall had been, for example), and then save it so I can 1) edit it in After Effects (by adding moving characters), 2) export it so it will import back into PPro, render and run smoothly when viewed in the Source or Program monitors?
I also d/l the free PFx Film Machine, but I'm not too sure what it does? I think it lets me open quick time files in photoshop as a sequence of still images for editing in PS?
Also, I haven't yet installed this Film Strip, not sure how to install it?
Thanks in advance.

Bill, Ann, after we got home from the picnic last night I took the time to read chapter 27 "fun with filmstrips" in the newly arrived book, "photoshop for digital video," and earlier today I went to the local Barnes & Noble cafe with my laptop and I cropped a ~2 second video sequence of the *.flm file (it had the wordpad icon) in PPro that I was having trouble opening in PS, saved it after cropping it, then I exported again as a new *.flm sequence, exited PPro, started up PS, then went to Browse, located the new file, > Open, and it opened as a double-columned (with a L column of a sequence and a R column of sequences). I then started editing all the sequences the left column, editing out say, a stray person that I did not want in the finished project, saved the file as a *.flmroj while still working on it in PS. Then I gropued all of the edits into one folder, duplicated it and tried to move the copied (this entire filmstrip was taken with the same angle/perspective in both L & R columns) folder onto the right column, but the layers (edits) in the R column had the individual layer (going frame by frame) boarders (white boarder separating one frame from the next frame) off-center, unlike the way they were lined up perfectly in the L column.
How to I get the boarders of these edits to line up perfectly in the R column like they do in the L column?
This file (since working on it at the cafe and saving it) now has a PS file-association icon. I'm going to do more background edits on each frame later in PS.
What does *.flmroj mean? What application does it open with after all of the background edits are finished and if I'd like to add an angel to this sequence that moves according to the sequence (such as giving someone a book that the angel pulled out of his back pocket for example)?
Did I just solve a software problem (by getting the *.flm file to open in PS) today without any errors?
Apparently when I kept getting these errors, that flm file was just too big for my system's OS to load it into RAM to in order to open it/display it onscreen, altough I have enough RAM to save the edits rather quickly in PS (this means the application writes the new data into this file's hard drive location, thus updating a whole string of binary digits on the file's hard drive location).

Premiere Pro CS5.5 importing .MOV files help!

Hi, I have been using this software for quite a while now but this problem has only just started occuring.
When I import video files from either my iPhone 4s or Ipad3 into PPro the monitor preview screen goes green, but when I insert the video file onto the timeline I can hear the audio but the video file itself is just showing green.
When I open the exact same file with WMP, VLC player, FLV player quicktime and so on it is perfect but this only happens when I import into PPro CS5.5.
I also have a handheld HD video camera which records in .MOV format and when I import those files into PPro it works just fine, so it is only the iPhone and iPad files that it does not like!
I'm assuming this is a codec issue?
Please can someone help as this is driving me insane!
Many thanks
Dan
P.S, this has only just started happening, I have been importing iPad and iPhone video files into PPro for ages with no problems whatsoeva, I am not aware that I have deleted anything like codecs or anything that would make this start happening. Very strange!

>assuming this is a codec issue
Maybe... or maybe a Windows update changed "something" that has made your graphic adapter cause problems
So... ATI or nVidia, and EXACT driver version... and, for either, have you gone to the vendor site (NOT Windows Update) to see if there is a newer driver?

Importing Multi-Layered Photoshop CS2 files...

Hello again everyone. I trust you are all well.
I am currently constructing some tutorials for my Video Editing class and I am trying to demonstrate how to import and use Multi-layered Photoshop CS2 files inside Final Cut Express 2.0.3.
Here is the problem:
My iBook is running Final Cut Express 2.0.3 but does not have Adobe Photoshop CS2 on it. My DELL PC is running Adobe Photoshop CS2 and I am creating my PSD's on that and then transfering those PSD's across to the iBook with either my USB stick or my iPod.
Now according to the Final Cut Express 2.0.3 Help file, "When you import a layered Photoshop File into Final Cut Express, the file becomes a sequence in your project".
However, when I import my PSD, that was created on my DELL in Photoshop CS2, into Final Cut Express 2.0.3, it does not import it as a sequence, but as a flattened still image.
Is this because I need to have Photoshop CS2 installed on my iBook for the PSD to be imported correctly as a sequence, retaining the layers, or is there a compatability issue with creating PSD's on a PC and then trying to import them into Final Cut Express 2.0.3?
Regards,

Thanks for your quick reply Tom!
I had a feeling this might be the case after I did some more testing with Photoshop files created on a MAC. If I resave those PC Photoshop files on a Mac in Photoshop, they import correctly as a sequence into Final Cut Express.
Thanks again for the advice!

Justin Pamenter

Why does Adobe Premiere Pro modify original footage/asset files (e.g. mov)? (CS6)

Background:
A colleague had given me a large 33Gb .mov for use in a project, I put this file on a backup drive.
I made an identical copy of this 33Gb .mov file and placed it in a folder that I'd use to work on a Premiere Pro Project.
I ran Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and dragged in the 33Gb .mov file into the Sequence (imported it)
Premiere Pro CS6 started conforming the file.
After it had finished, I noticed that it's Modified Date was just now i.e different to the Modified Date on the original copy of the file on the backup drive (see step 1)
I ran a BeyondCompare check between the .mov file on the backup drive (see step 1) and the one that the Premiere Pro project was using (step 2, 3) and Beyond Compare reported they were different.
I had initially thought it was unrelated file corruption of some kind, but I have checked this several times and got the same outcome, so it's definitely Premiere Pro deliberately modifying the file.
So I am puzzled: these are supposed to be the same file.
Why would there be a need for Adobe Premiere Pro to modify the footage?
What does it do to the file?
Would it not be better to create a separate file if necessary?
I can accept this if that's how it works and it's good to know that it was Premiere Pro deliberately modifying the files and not corruption (so my hardware ought to be healthy). But it makes more sense to me if Premiere Pro made separate modified copies for its own use. Modifying the file as it does hinders my process for checking the integrity of backups; if the original asset footage files were the same as earlier copies then it would be easy to know that the backups are OK.
Thoughts?

Definitive Answer (I believe): It's all about this setting, "Write XMP ID To Files On Import" - which confirms that Adobe Premiere Pro is deliberately modifying the .mov file: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/preferences.html#WSE3BD4A43-7022-4fe6-97F5-95313 935347B
These posts give some background as to why having this setting enabled would be beneficial: one benefit being to be able to skip conforming files by matching the conformed file with the original using the embedded XMP tag :-

Can I use Adobe Premiere Pro to convert Camcorder MOD files to MPEG?

Can I use Adobe Premiere Pro to convert Camcorder MOD files to MPEG files?

If you are on CC2014 probably not. It does not get interpreted correctly.
Premiere and previous versions does not support MOD files.
Best is to convert to avi

The first link John posted contains confusing and incorrect information.

Will Premiere Pro CC support Cinema DNG files?

Will Premiere Pro CC support Cinema DNG files?

That would be nice, but my guess is that if support was built in, Adobe would have made mention of it as a new feature.
Given that Blackmagic is releasing a $1000 DC camera that records CinemaDNG to SD cards, it sure would be nice if PP cold work with them natively. People, please keep filing that feature request.

Premiere Pro creating impossibly huge project files

I am confused as to why Premiere Pro CS6 is creating projects files that are so enormous they either crash my computer while saving them, or when I try to open them again after closing them, they simply will not open because they are too big. I have NEVER seen Premiere Pro CS5 create a project file that was, for example, 1.75GB in size. Now, I can't even edit a two minute video without eventually losing everything because the file size becomes unmanageable.
I thought it might be an issue with Magic Bullet Looks 2.0, as I noticed the file would grow enormously every time I added an effect to a clip. Not sure. Anyone else having this problem, with or without Looks or other otherwise 100% compatible plug-ins?

I too am having the exact same problem, but the only effect I've been using is cross fade (both the transition effect and jut dragging the opacity down. I think it might be the drag on effect now that I'm hearing everyone else's issues. At first I had thought it might be a nesting issue (the main thing I've been using PrPro CS6 for is cutting together animatics with ref footage, so a lot of individual images laid over eachother) but that did really make sense. The odd thing I've noticed, thoug, is that it seems to be increasing by a factor of two once it really starts getting gigantic (which I can tell because I version constantly). Isn't that a bit... I don't know, odd? I mean if this is infact the case. The size where they really start to seem unwieldly is at about 250mb. I'm trying to open that file now, remove a whole bunch of the crossfades, and see if it has an effect on the file size.
I have been nearly patient enough yet to wait for the 500m files to even re open.
Tell me, for you guys, does the load project bar always stutter at the same place, like, right below the "Pr" in "Load Project"?

Importing Photoshop CS2 file to Premiere Pro 1.5

I have edited a frame from Premiere Pro 1.5 in Photoshop CS2 and I have had trouble importing the edited frame into Premiere.
I perhaps thought I couldn't import it because:
a) The file size had changed.
b) The error message mentioned that it could be damaged (it said something else as well but I don't remember what it said)
c) The photoshop file had lots of layers, which I then flattened.
I'm fairly new to both programs, so may be I didn't apply the correct settings. I hope this isn't the case as I spent all day editing the frame!
Hope someone can help!!!!

Welcome to the forum.
Stepping back a bit, can you Open that file in PS?
Like Jim, I'd like to know the format of that file.
What are the full specs.of the file, i.e. pixel x pixel dimensions, Color Mode, Bit-Depth, etc.?
Cannot recall PrPro 1.5 that clearly anymore, but you should have two options, when Importing a PSD w/ Layers into PrPro, and that would be as a Sequence, with all Layers still separate, so that they can be animated, or manipulated, on separate Video Tracks, or as Footage, which will Flatten the Layers. Which are you choosing?
Good luck,

Can't convert Canon CR2 RAW files to photoshop CS2- please help!

I have a Canon EOS Rebel XT and am using Photoshop CS2 and can not open my Raw images. Canon saves the images as a CS2 file. I guess needs converting.. Please Help!!

Daag Kees,
>[Kees] DNG converter 4_3_1 don't convert my raw Leica M8- images to digital negatives files that will open in Photoshop CS 8.0.1. (Camera raw 2.0).
Of course not. You need ACR (Camera Raw) version 2.4. Version 2.0 does NOT support DNGs.
After you correctly install ACR 2.4 according to the instructions on the download page and after you relaunch Photoshop, you need to Purge the Cache for each folder.
>[Michael] Simply run the DNG converter and point it at your M8 raw files and they will be converted to DNG.
Nope. Point the DNG Converter to a folder containing RAW files, not to the raw files themselves. The DNG Converter works on Folders containing raw files, not on individual files.
>What means "using Bridge" ?
Forget that. It does NOT apply to Photoshop 8.x. In CS3, you can have ACR hosted either by Photoshop or by Bridge. Photoshop 8.x doesn't even have Bridge.
Prettige Kerstdagen!

Photoshop CS2 File Info Templates fill in all pages, not just it's own

I just purchased an Acer Laptop computer, has an AMD 64x2 Dual Core Processor, 2GB of DDR2 Ram, 160GB hard drive with Windows Vista Home Premium preinstalled. I'm not sure how any of this could be of any help, though.
I've just installed Photoshop CS2, Neat image noise remover, Nik sharpener, and Huey pro calibrator on it.
This is to be a second computer to a Dell desktop, that will be used when out of town and we want to work on our images.
Today we opened Photoshop CS2 and tried to work on some Raw images. We were just going to crop them and fill in the File Info on them then save them to jpeg.
The cropping went fine. When we tried to enter file info and save the Metadata Templates we had trouble. There are 7 of 12 different pages of info that can be changed, the other 5 can't be, I think. Anyway, we were filling in the Description, IPTC Contact, ITPC Content, IPTC Image and IPTC Status pages. We saved the IPTC Contact page as a Metadata Template.
The first image went fine, but when we opened other images, and typed in the information it all changed back to the information on the first image we did when the saved Contact template was used. When we saved the IPTC template for the first image it save the information on all of the pages, not just the Contact page. When we realized this, I started playing around with it and whatever template was saved last will give you all the information typed in on all pages that was there when that template was saved. I also checked the Photoshop CS2 installed on the Dell Desk Top and it is working correctly. We have templates for Description, IPTC Contact, and IPTC Image saved on it. These will give you the information on the individual page not all.
Why would it be doing this on the Laptop and more importantly, how can I fix it?
I sure hope this makes sense and do apologize for the length of it. Thanks in advance for any help I can get. Linda

I was having a similar problem - I was saving an SVG from Illustrator, only to find that when I tried to open it or place it back in Illustrator, I got the error "This SVG is Invalid. Validate it before opening."
You can run the SVG through the W3C validator, remove all the parts causing errors using a simple text editor like Notepad, and then Illustrator should be able to open it. This is a laborious process though if you have a lot of SVGs to save.
After a discussion with Apple support, I learned that it was actually one of my graphics in the Illustrator file that was causing the issue. I had placed an SVG I received from a co-worker, changed the colors, and was trying to save it as an SVG again, but for some reason I kept getting that error, even when I tried save other icons/layers in the same document. When I deleted the two layers that were corrupt, the Save As SVG worked perfectly, no errors when opening the file.
I don't know details, but if you are getting this error, try the Flatten Transparency thing like witkacy suggests. If you're still having problems, it may be caused by an SVG you placed in your file. After a little bit of trial and error, you may be able to find the culprit. You may then have to re-create the graphic yourself (like I did). Converting it to outlines or a shape or something may work as well, but I'm not sure.
Hope this helps someone else!

Fonts are degrading in Premiere Pro CC from Photoshop CC

I'm creating some simple text slates for use in a video. I am making them in Photoshop CC as TIF files with a transparent background to overlay onto the video in Premiere Pro CC. In Photoshop they look crisp, and clean around the edges, but when I import the TIF files into Premiere they get pixellated and have jagged edges. The dimensions of the TIF files are 1280x720 which is the same as the video and sequence settings in Premiere Pro.
Are there optimal settings I should be using in Photoshop to ensure best TIF quality in Premiere?
Should I maybe not be using a TIF file at all? PSD?
It is a very clean sans serif font. Nothing crazy. I don't know why this is happening and have tired a lot of things with the render settings etc to try and fix but am getting the same results.
I know in Final Cut the main thing was to ensure RGB color mode VS CMYK but I'm not sure if there are other things at play in Premiere Pro CC.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

How do you typically set your transparency settings? I have them set how I always would.
What I've figured out that this definitely has something to do with the actual TIF file some how. If I use the exact same font at exact same size in Premiere by creating a title it looks crystal clear. This is very strange because I don't think I am doing anything different than usual with the TIF files...

So upon opening Premiere everything seems ok. There is no lagging or glitching, I can click tabs and everything is fine.
When I import a .mov file or any of my previous premiere pro files I have no issues.
The problem starts when I try to scrub through the timeline. As I scrub through it nothing shows up in the preview area. Sometimes it is blank and other times it only shows the image that the scrubber was set on. The program seems ok as I'm scrubbing, there's no weird lagging and the program doesn't freeze until the box telling me "Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 has stopped working" pops up.
The same thing happens every time. I do not know why.
Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this?
My copy of Premiere Pro is legal and bought.
The sooner I can resolve this the better. I have other computers I can use premiere pro on but I would like to be able to work on my own laptop when I'm at home :|.
I've also tried updating the program but that didn't do anything either.

It turned out to be a display problem with my computer's settings.
For some reason my computer changed its color mode from 32 bit to 16 bit, which was also making my photoshop gradients show up choppy.
I changed it back and problem solved!!
Thankyou though!
