PremierePro 5.5 and Encore 5.1 not closing (Vista64)

I recently installed the 5.5 Master suite update which pretty well duplicated most of the apps in my previous 5.0 Master Suite except for the few that are improved, such as Premiere Pro. I'm now seeing that Premiere Pro is not closing after I exit. It will appear to be closed but when I check the Task Manager I find that it's still present in the list or running processes. With Premiere Pro it's not a problem I would not have noticed as PPro re-launches without any complaints. But Encore is doing the same thing (still running in the Processes list even though I closed it) and it will not relaunch unless I force the process to end by selecting it in Processes list and choose End Process.
Anyone know what might be causing this and if there's an easy fix? I'm not terribly fond of the idea of having to uninstall/reinstall the whole CS 5.5 Master Suite.Is there some web functionality added to the CS5.5 update that keeps apps open in the background even when they've been closed?

Tell us about your third-party video hardware, drivers, and codecs. BlackMagic, Matrox, AJA...?
I'm running an ASUS P6X58D-E motherboard with 24GB RAM (nothing overclocked), boot disk is an SSD, 2 WD VelociRaptors (300/600) for files and scratch and another SSD that I use as a Photoshop's scratch disk. The videocard is a Gigabyte Radeon HD5750 'Silent Cell' and I'm running the latest drivers. It's OpenGL features work fine with Photoshop.
fwiw I use a small mobile rack to swap out my 'Boot' SSD for a second one on which Windows 7(64) is installed as well as the second install of the Master Suite. I just checked it out and it behaves properly with that installation. Since both OS's use the same hardware as well as the same video driver version then I assume that's probably not where the problem is.
I'm not sure if I'm checking in the right place for the CODEC versions as I'm much more familiar with Photoshop stuff. In 'System Information', under 'Components' and 'Multimedia', there are 2 tabs listing Audio and Video Codecs. In there are listed 5 video Codecs and 5 audio ones. They're all Microsoft except one audio Codec named 'Fraunhofer IIs MPEG Layer-3 Codec'.
I'm not sure what you might be refering to by "BlackMagic, Matrox, AJA..." ?
For now I can just shut them down manually and poke at things more when I have time. Perhaps someone else will find the culprit and save me the trouble. Reading so many other posts online with the same (or very similar) problem suggests that there's something in common.
Do you have any suggestions of where I might start looking? Is it worth trying a 'repair install' of the Master Suite? I'd do a reinstall of the suite if I thought it would help, seeing that the error does not occur with Win7(64) on the same hardware.
Thanks for the help :-)

After upgrading to 3.6.12 my browser is not opening pop-up windows and while closing the browser giving a message that some tabs are open and shall the same be closed? I have not encountered this problem with eralier version. Is there any known issues?

Some of my web pages open a new pop-up window for entering credentilas and display sensitive information. After upgrading t0 3.6.12 i found that firefos is not opening pop-up windows (earlier version allowed). When I close the browser, it gives a quit message saying there are unclosed tabs and windows of firefox. shall they be saved for next time start.
Also observed that the memory usage (from Task manager)is very high compared to earlier ones and the process is not closed even if I close the browser.

3.6.13 is also behaving similarly.

Getting Files off CD-RW that is not Closed

Hi,
I have an issue that is new to me. My dad has a CD of a music concert his chorus performed that was captured from the mixing board to a CD writer of some sort. The result was a CD that has a single session that is marked as Open when I look at the disk in Toast.
He had 2 such CDs but I closed the session and finalized one disk by burning an additional file on it. That closed the disk and I could see the 2 sessions (as different volumes) and get the audio files off the disk. However, the second CD seems to have run out of room for me to try that trick again. I tried to copy an empty file created by the "touch" command (probably about 4k in size since nothing is every empty in size) it tells me there is ~600k to write and only about 300k available. Toast tells me there is 702MB of data on the disk already (and CDs only say they hold 700MB so I'm assuming it's at the limit).
So the big question is whether I can use Terminal or some other means to just grab the files from the disk even though the session is open and the disk is not closed. Has anyone run into this before or a way around it? Since the Finder will not mount the open session I can't see it in the /Volumes folder to copy from it. Disk Utility wants to erase the disk and Toast can see the disk and if I had room I could write more to it.
Any help or ideas anyone has is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sean

Give this one a try....
http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Utilities/Dragon-Burn.shtml
Do just run it and go.....and do a fresh restart, run that app, then feed the CD - all in one shot, right after a reboot and don't run any other burn apps, feed in any other disks, etc.
If it mounts for DragonBurn, immediately create an image, then burn that to a blank DVD or export audio tracks to iTunes...don't try to pack it all back onto a CD.

Stax bug: writeEmptyElement not closed

Hi,
The following test case:
xsw.writeStartDocument();
xsw.writeEmptyElement("test");
xsw.writeEndDocument();
xsw.flush();
xsw.close();
Produces:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?><test
And the tag is not closed.
Looks like the logic doesn't cope with one empty element in the document.
An egde case it has to be said but one we need...
Thanks,

As far as I read the documentation and newsgroups, I would expect, that
the code above closes the resultset by itself, so that I don't have to
call
q.closeAll()
It works fine, as long as the resultset (LazyResultSet) contains at least
1 row.
When the resultset is empty, the query stays open, so that I get more and
more open session (using Oracle 9i)
I often use wrapper classes/methods around queries, which only return the
Collection that the query returned.
When using these wrapper classes it is of course mandatory to iterate the
Collection to the end.
Due to the bug(?) above that whole logic isn't working, at some point
oracle refuses to give new connections and the application hangs.
What can I do about it ?

Encore CS6 will not Burn DVD and restart computer

Encore CS6 will not Burn DVD and freeze then restart computer. But if I burn to a Image file then use a program like Image Burn no problem burning a DVD. Whats up? The burner is Blu-ray \ DVD burner from Pioneer. All other Adobe suite apps run with no issues. Computer is windows i7 with 24gig of memory Nvidia Geforce GTX 760 Raid 5 system.

Project Settings vs. Encoding and Encore Resolution for BR

I am editing HDV footage from a Canon HV20. When I setup my project in Pr Pro I used the recommended
default HDV project settings. Hopefully these are correct. I will be burning a Blu-Ray disc for the project.
I assume like other products I have used, the best answer here is the native resolution of your source which hopefully is what I am getting.
Now when I render it via media encoder, it asks me for the "frame size"/resolution for the Blu-Ray disc output.
Also when opening a new project in Encore, it asks for similar information. I am in NTSC land.
I am familiar with the HD standard and resolutions, and the end result of this project is a Blu-Ray disc played on HDTV's.
However what is the best media encoder resolutoin and encore "frame size" settings for a Blu-Ray disc with an HDV source?
I saw several articles and videos from Adobe about these settings and they explain what they are, but not what the recommended selections are.
As a sidenote, once you are working on a project in PP can you change the settings/resolution of the project?
Thanks,
BJBBJB1
PS...Did not know which forum to post this in as it straddles all 3 products!!

First, thanks to both of you for your help! Hmmm, I am sure the confusion is on my end....
Both of you recommend H.264 vs. MPEG 2 for encoding. If I am rendering a 1 hour 20 minute Blu-ray, for burning Blu-Rays that I need to paly on a white variety of standalone players, what is the better choice and whay? I was planning on burning to single layer Blu-Ray at best quality. I am also using 5.1 audio.
For the encoder, I was going to use "HDTV 1080i 29.97 High Quality" as my rendering preset with MPEG2.
However now I am wondering if I should be using H.264? Harm, you mention it and you also mention "square pixels". I am familiar with this concept due to my photography work and slide shows vs. video, but where is this "square pixel" setting in the media encoder??
Anna, I appreciate your comment regarding keeping it simple, however, although I am far from a PPro expert, I definitely am into Home Video and understand quality and resolutions, etc., so I want to get the best quality even if I have to do a little work.. So I'll get there. I see that clicking on that menu item allows you to choose maximum render quality. I have plenty of RAM but since I am not going SD to HD or SD to HD, perhaps it won't matter much. However I am confused by the resolution you are showing there, 1440x1080?
As far as my initial question regarding how to setup my encore project, I may have answered it myself by playing around with the media encoder box. I opened up the drop down advanced section and I see it presents the frame dimensions there. I would assume I would use the exact same frame dimensions in Encore when setting up my project.
So I guess at this point my only decisions are:
1) What codec should I use when exporting from PPro? h.264 or MPEG-2. If it matters, I am using 5.1 audio also. (thanks for all your help with that Harm months ago, it works great!).
2) What resolution to use in media encoder?
3) How do I set square pixels?
4) Once exported, in Encore, is my assumption correct that I will just use the same resolution as exported from P Pro.
Perhaps that is what Anna was recommending, keep the same resolution and then let Encore render to 1920X1080 however I would want to get all my rendering out of the way during the export process and just keep it all the same in Encore if that is a good workflow.
Thanks again for all the help!

Mac OS 10.7 and Premiere Pro CS5 not reading AVI and DV files, not rendering to Media Encoder

Hi Folks,
I've been wrestling with these problems since I bought my Macbook Pro running Lion (currently v10.7.3). I've had video editing and DVD authoring workflows that have worked perfectly for both CS3 and CS4 with Premiere Pro and Encore. I used to be able to import DV and AVI files and render timelines to Adobe Media Encoder so I can make DVD projects in Encore but it seems there are a lot of broken bits and pieces either with 10.7 or with CS5 or both. I've tired creating new projects or re-editing CS4 Premiere Pro projects that I can still edit with CS4 on my old Macbook Pro with 10.6.8. In fact I've given up on CS5 and I've gone back to my old laptop to edit. My problems with CS5/5.5 are:
1     Can't import DV files - error message saying this is an unsupported format
2     Can't import AVI files - error message saying this is an unsupported format
3     When I export media and try to use Adobe Media Encoder (AME) the render queue doesn't respond to the files being sent from Premiere Pro (PPro). I have to render the files one at a time from within PPro. I have no idea where the queued files go but even if I have AME open it doesn't respond. In CS4 AME would open automatically and wait until I told it to render the files.
4     In Encore I've had trouble burning to DVD. I have to make an ISO file and then burn that using Toast. I'n not particularly fussed about this but while I'm unloading I may as well give you the full picture.
Basically I'm really hating this vcersion of CS5/Mac OS. Lion is like using Vista from what I can tell. On my PCs I went from XP to Windows 7 so I kinda avoided all that pain it it seems the computer gods are smiting good and proper now. I don't care whose fault it is I want Apple and Adobe to fix it or if some kind soul can share their experiences and hopefully how they fixed it I'd be eternally grateful until the next upgrade totally blindsides us all.
Thank you in anticipation --> Mal/Melboure/AU

Sorry for your troubles.
Pr 5.5.2 is still a bit persnickety for me on 10.6.8, but overall, it's still faster than FCP7 and MC6, and overall pretty dependable. Imports and plays AVI files just fine.
Lion still isn't ready for prime time, from what I've seen. Like all Mac OS releases, it probably won't be until 10.7.6 or so. And that may never happen, becuase 10.8 is purported to be just around the corner.
So, my advice is, if possible, go back to what works, 10.6.8.

Premiere and Encore CS4 crashes and issues on Toshiba Laptop

I have a Toshiba Qosmino Laptop, 4 GB ram, Windows XP Sev pac 3, Nvida Gforce 7300 video. new 7500 RPM Hard drive
The two programs that crash all the time are Premiere and Encore CS4
Premiere will start some times and sometimes not. I've tried a new projects, importing a CS3 project seems to make no difference. Takes approx 2-3 minuites to load. Click on a imported video clip or timeline and crash.
Encore crashes "EVERYTIME"... tried to import from Premiere into Encore.. when the timeline is clicked in Encore it crashes everytime. Tried a new project in Encore same problem. Started Encore alone and same problem... first click and crash.
I'm not getting a blue screen just the Adobe crash report screen asking me to send a report... have done that many times.
Things that I have tried:
Had CS3 (BTY it ran fine)
Uninstalled CS3 and uninstalled CS4. Reinstalled CS4 same problems.
Defrag hard drive....
Reinstall CS4
Updated video drivers to latest version
Reloaded older video drivers
Did MSCONFIG and stropped all unneeded processes
All the rest of the CS4 programs open and run fine.
Any help is appreciated!!

Sounds like a problematic video driver or codec issue. You need to update all your drivers and try again. Also get rid of any unnecessary codecs. Try opening files in various formats and see if the same happens. Also you should search the KnowledgeBase, it contains a lot of information about this kind of problem.
If all fails, call Adobe Tech Support...

CS4: PPro and Encore crash upon startup!

I have been using CS4 for a long time with no issues, but yesterday PPro and Encore started crashing upon starting up.
The screen for either one will load up, but in PPro the timeline pane will be ghosted and the system will just freeze if I click on anything in the PPro window, including the menu. Encore does the exact same thing as far as crashing if I click anything.
I have not installed any new programs and I shut down as many background tasks as possible, as I have always done.
If I reboot the computer after a crash, I get a popup window telling me that PhotoshopServer.exe has caused an exception, blah blah. I have NEVER had that before this crashing started.
I uninstalled the entire CS4 suite and reinstalled it. The installer kept giving me errors about some components not being installed correctly, so I ran the Adobe Support Advisor and it sent me to a link that instructed me to remove the Color Profiles. I did this and the installer continued with no further issues. I then installed all patches up to 4.2.1 with no issues. BTW, I did shutdown all of my antivirus/antispyware/firerwall programs first and copied any missing color profiles back to the Windows directory, as instructed without overwriting any existing ones from the new install.
I started the new installation for the first time after a reboot and shutting down everything in the background... instant crashes AGAIN!
I'm running out iof ideas and I have no idea what went wrong after using this suite for so long with no issues.
Here's my computer specs:
Asus Rampage II Extreme mobo
Intel Core i7-920 @ 3.0 GHz.
3x1 GBs Kingston HyperX Tri-Channel 1800 MHz. RAM
2 EVGA e-GeForce 9800 GTX+ 1 GB boards in SLI
2 WD 500GB SATA hard drives in RAID 0 (boot)
2 WD 500GB SATA hard drives in RAID 0 (storage)
PC Power & Cooling 1.2Kw PSU
Windows XP (32-bit) SP3 with all updates current.
Any help would be greatly appreciated -- I'm pulling my hair out here!

It's probable that the Canon drivers are to blame rather than Adobe. The change in behavior may be due to another piece of software (driver, automatic update, etc) installed that now results in the Canon drivers loading into a different address space where whatever they were already wrong now has a negative consequence. Could also be related to the Canon drivers not dealing properly with ASLR (address space randomization feature in Windows) but that seems likely.

Adobe premiere and encore dynamic link

When I tried to go from Adobe Premiere 5.5 to Encore by Dynamic Link from Premiere to Encore I found it NOT Working and
Also in Encore when I go File> Adobe Dynamic Link > Import Premiere Sequence it does not work?

Hi Stan,
Thank you very much for your help and quick reply and I have to buy you a free drink now. Ha…Ha….
I spent about 6 hrs. try to searching for the fix but I could not find anything except a few people stated that you could fix this Dynamic Link by going to help/deactivate the activate but I did not to try it
Encase I lose all Premiere. Do you think it will work?
The problem started after I had chat with Adobe support team to help me to reinstall Production Premium and after that the link did not work.
On my user account in premiere when I click on DL it does nothing and in Encore when I try to import the sequence I can see the window with disk activity but I cannot select any item.
I can open premiere and encore separately but I cannot link them?
I create a new user account and also I cannot send Premiere project to Encore But I can import Premiere’s sequence without any problem?
Any Idea how to fix this by repair not by uninstall because I had a lot of problem when I had to reinstall them. Is easy to repair them?
You also stated to me it is better to export from premiere to Encore directly without losing any quality, What is the best setting for this and I will buy 2 drinks.
Thank you again.
