Preset for Screen Cam?

Hi -
I am trying to edit screen cam video captured at 1024 x 768. When I go to edit in Premiere Elements (I have an eval copy) , it gets a terrible flicker. I now understand that I need to edit in a similar format to the capture. It looks like all of the presets are targeted to video camera capture only. Is there any way I can change the format to edit for what I need?
I saw an earlier thread about editing the presets, but it looks like that doesn't work in 8?
Thanks for your help,
Elizabeth

I would anticipate that the 5 FPS is the reason for the poor playback.
Not sure what the best solution would be. Yes, PrPro allows one to use the Desktop Preset and then adjust the attributes to match non-standard footage, but it is a pretty robust program, and anything but inexpensive. There must be a better way to get this footage edited, and in either PrE, or in a similar NLE, even if conversion is required.
I'd like to invite you to post to the Muvipix Community (their fora), as many subscribers there do Video tutorials, and use various Video screen-cap programs and maybe SnagIt. Some of those subscribers post here, but many do not, and some of those might have some great, helpful hints for you. One such subscriber is Chuck Engles, who does quite a few Video tutorials. One can post/read as a Guest, but sign-up is free. There are also many excellent items of Functional Content, articles on how-to-do, and the Learning Series, by our very own Steve Grisetti.
Good luck,

I am trying to determine the new project preset for a multi-camera video shot as follows: 3 Canon camcorders,
Main shot is DV (tape) (720x480, 29fps) - ceremony and reception
b-roll is DVD (mini-disk) (720x480, 29fps) - bride preparations
additional b-roll is AVCHD (1920x1080, 29fps) - groom preparations and misc all day ceremony and reception.
Film is from a wedding, DV contains main footage so I assume it will need to be the base. I am planning to use the preset for DV-Widescreen. Is there a better option? I'm concerned about playback as the three appear to have different PAR. I'm using Premiere Elements 10 on W8.
Ultimately this will be burned for two formats - one for a DVD that can be watched on a widescreen TV, second for a short clip trailer to go on vimeo.
(And no I won't be doing this again for a wedding that I shoot.)

Please review since I am not sure how you obtained Video 3 tall when you scaled Video 3 with Constrain Proportions in effect.
Before
After
It becomes a zoomed in effect to get rid of the black borders. But, there is no tall and thin involved anywhere.
And, after the Scale increase, you can always click on the screen and move the image around a bit
(without overdoing it to get black borders again).
After and an adjust
Please let us know if you are OK with the information above.
Thank you.

Camera Raw brightness and contrast preset for art capture?

I'm capturing oil paintings for reproduction with a D3x tethered to Lightroom 3. I'm converting though in camera raw. My camera profile is created using Color Checker Passport software/target which uses a DNG file. Given that, the profile is build without brightness or contrast adjustments. My question is, for accurate color, tone and exposure capture should the default ACR presets for brightness and contrast be reset to 0?
Thanks!

Or use the Zero'd setting on import to get no initial settings. However, I thing you'll find doing your own is better.

The screen came off off my ipod is it broken for good?

i dropped my ipod and the screen came completly off is there a way it can be fixed?

You can try making an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple Store, if you have them in your area, and asking if they'll exchange it for their out-of-warranty replacement fee, but in most cases when the iPod has broken into multiple pieces they won't. It won't hurt to ask, though. If indeed they won't, there are unauthorized repair shops that may be able to repair your iPod. Do a web search for "ipod repair" and you'll find a number of options. I haven't used any so I can't make any specific recommendations, but someone else here might know of a service they can recommend.

Thanks buddy. never thought it was that easy. my facetime still indicates validating account even the wifi signal is ok, as I was able to download apps. I checked my email and nothing came in yet for verification or validation. I will try it later again.
thanks again.

Internet went down , does and a screen came up ( internet diagnostic screen) does anyone know if this is real ? said it would diagnose and send info to apple then ask for computer password and a minute after I gave it internet came back up. Real apple sea

internet went down and a aplle diagnostic screen came up ask for password as soon as I gave it and entered within a minute internet came up again. real or Hacked? Has anyone ever seen this before --- internet diagnostic screen said it was from and going to apple

No, as I already said, they will not. They will not repair or replace any Apple device that's even been opened by anyone else.
In this case, the morons who butchered your phone caused a lot more damage than the broken screen.
You should have taken it to Apple for service in the first place.

This is it ! Code for Full Screen Camera STEP bySTEP idiot prove !

1: Create a Normal View Based Application
2: Drag in "BTLFullScreenCameraController" *.h and *.m files into Xcode.
3: In the Header file, implement this:
#import "BTLFullScreenCameraController.h"
4: Add in the delegations <UIImagePickerControllerDelegate, UINavigationControllerDelegate>
UIView *BaseView; //Base View that everything else adds to.
BTLFullScreenCameraController *camera; //The Magic
UIImageView *LCARS_Frame; //The ImageView that frames the whole camera [LCARS Frame]
UILabel *label; //Labels and more labels [Possibly the information tags]
@property (nonatomic, retain) UIView *BaseView;

self.BaseView.alpha = OVERLAY_ALPHA; //This line can only work after the previous line.
//Add Image First

// since the modal view is not as desirable
// This isn't working but should:
//self.view = self.camera.view;
// Modal view always works, but it's harder to work with.
[self.camera displayModalWithController:self animated:YES];

1) Use, this can be done, as you said in 1.4 there is Full Screen mode for windows.
2) There is no way to catch Alt-Tab. It would too dangerous to allow to catch it and prevent. All you can do is to react on it, I am sure you'll receive some focus event(DEACTIVATE, WINDOW_LOST_FOCUS, FOCUS_LOST) when user switches from your application by Alt-Tab
3) There is no way to prevent screen capture, it is system call, I am sure you can write some C application using hooks to catch and filter out key sequence for screen capture but not in Java.

Does adobe PE 7 have the right preset for my video camera?

The video my camera outputs is high definition 1280×720 30fps video in H.264/MPEG-4 AVC format. Which preset should I use in PE 7 for best results?
thanks,
Paul

You're right, there is no preset for 1280 x 720. Unfortunately I dont think upgrading to version 8 is going to be an option. What would be my best option from the presets in PE 7?
PS very impressed with the prompt and knowledgeable replies

The camera presets for the Lens Correction Filter are gone

Hi! I shoot with a Canon 5D Mk II and Mk III. Sometimes I need to use the Lens Correction filter and have gotten used to seeing the dropdown choices for Canon cameras and associated lenses. Suddenly, they are all gone. Canon isn't even an option. What could have happened to them and how can I get them back. Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Jeff,
   Thanks for the quick answer, but I still think the menu is misleading.
   If the body choices were in the format of "full frame, 1.3 crop, 1.6
crop, etc.", it would be clear that the specific model didn't matter.
However, this would create its own problems since many people wouldn't
understand the concept of the crop factor for their camera.
   The fact that the 5D Mark II exists in the pull-down menu as a discrete
choice in addition to the 1Ds Mark III implies that there is a difference
between the two. Even if there is no functional difference in this context,
it would avoid confusion if the actual body from the EXIF information could
always be the default selection.
   Thanks.

How to create a preset for computer output of 1024x768?

I just upgraded from Premiere Elements 1.0 (yes, 1! :) ) to PE7. I record user group meetings for my local software developers group. We have screen capture at 1024x768 pixels and audio.
In PE1 I had no trouble bringing this footage in, editing it and exporting it as 1024x768 for viewing online by the members.
However, I can't seem to find anyway to create a project preset for 1024x768. It seems I can only create SD, HD and similar.
When attempting to create a custom preset 90% of the values are pre-filled with settings and I can't change them. I see textboxes for the height and width but I can't change them.
Is this a limitation of PE7? Why in the world can I not create a video any size I want? Without this ability the upgrade is almost useless to me.
Please let me know because I feel like I must just be missing something.
Thanks!
Matt

Hey Steve,
Thanks for the reply.
I did see the 720p preset and this does produce a nice image. The SD preset made the output look muddy and the screen text was unreadable.
That being said, when importing my media into a project on the 720p preset I get the black letterbox bars on the side.
I did render a 10 second test area and changed the output size to 1024x768. I was afraid it would squash the entire video, but much to my surprise it just cropped it. So, while I have to work with the letterboxing I can output an actual 1024x768 video. I was also having a little trouble because I was using File - Export Movie to, well, export my movie. When I tried the Share task, set it to PC and changed the settings this was much easier and produced a much better result.
Thanks for the help!
FYI, I use PE7 to export it as a wmv. I'm playing with Expression Encoder to then encoded this with VC-1 for Silverlight clients.

CS3 How to choose a Codec/extension wrapper and Preset for a project

Goal
To create fanvideos from commercial DVDs for personal fair use.
Potential to use to promote a series in a social media campaign with permission of owner.
Tools on Hand
Three seasons worth of the series ripped from commercial DVD --> .VOB format in TS Folders on my 2008 10.5.8 Mac using MacTheRipper
FFMpegx CODEC pack.
CS3 Premierie Pro with Mac updates that were posted on the Adobe site.
So far I've been able to
I managed to use ffmpegx to convert my .vobs into .mp4s, which I then renamed as .movs to get Premiere to recognize it. I managed to sync my audio with the mp4 encoder (may have been a H264 but not sure by changinge the frame-rate from ntsc film to ntsc.
Problems I've encountered
I had admittedly been experimenting with different codecs and .exts, trying to find optimum quality:size:premiere/iDVD compability, so I had a variety of source footage in my project. For some, I had to readjust the pixel aspect ratio. But when i rendered/exported the final product...everything was squished and incorrect. I had sound syncing issues for some of my trials, too. Before I was trying to make things compatable with iDVD. I no longer care about this and have no intention of burning anything with this project.
I saw things on the internet about using Encore's library of codecs, but couldn't find anything .dll on my computer. I also have no idea how to use any of hte CS3 support software (bridge, extension manager, after affects)
Current steps I'd like to take
I'm starting over and converting my .vob files into something Adobe will recognize (a simple file name change didn't work in this instance). I've read the different file types that Adobe PPro recognizes, but it's come to my attention that it prefers some file types to others. Which extension wrappers are the least likely to cause headaches when trying to edit in Pro?
Out of those possible codecs and extension wrappers that are compatible, which are the best for fitting a lot of quality into a small filesize? I heard good things about H264, but I don't know if the patch I dl'd will be enough to make it Adobe PrePro compatible (and I know there are a few different kinds of h264. the only one i had any success with at all put it an mp4 mpeg container, but didn't end up being anything of a filesize savings compared to the other h264, which ended up being useless). I have about 60 .vobs that are 2 GB big, and don't have an external hard drive yet, so this is a consideration.
How do I choose a preset for my new project? These DVDs were released over the course of 3 years, and they don't all have the same specs in their native format (when I grab the info from DVD player, it's different). Will I have better luck using different seasons if I convert them from .vobs to identical target file types? I guess the better question is, when using 3 different types of files that are wrapped into .vobs, am I better off customizing the target file to match the file information DVD Player gives me for each different season....or trying to find specs that serve all three seasons best and have more uniform files imported into Premiere? Eitherway, how do I know how to pick a Preset? I try keeping a 16:9 or 16:9 DVD in my target files, but does that make it a widescreen project to start? Once I start the project, is it too late to change these settings?
Thank you for helping a newbie. I tried looking around for answers to each problem as I came across them, but eventually I got overwhelmed and threw my hands up, deleting everything. I'm ready to ask for help and have a little patience.
*It's important for me to use free or very affordable 3rd party software, as I am currently unemployed.

You MAY want to think about a product that will read the output from your DVD player and convert to DV AVI
Matt with Grass Valley Canopus in their tech support department stated that the model
110 will suffice for most hobbyist. If a person has a lot of tapes that were played
often the tape stretches and the magnetic coding diminishes. If your goal is to encode
tapes in good shape buy the 110, if you will be encoding old tapes of poor quality buy
the model 300
Both the 110 and 300 are two way devices so you may output back to tape... if you don't
need that, look at the model 55
http://www.grassvalley.com/products/advc55 One Way Only to Computer
http://www.grassvalley.com/products/advc110 for good tapes, or
http://www.grassvalley.com/products/advc300 better with OLD tapes

How to create presets for Keyframes in Adobe Premire Pro CC?

Dear Users,
I´m working on a Clip with more than one Video inside. I want to have one video in the back and the other Video on the right lower side (Picture in Picture).
Sometimes the right one should move to full screen and after a few seconds it should go back to the lower right again. This action
will be repeat many times in the complet movie, so I have to create keyframes for the movement (right to full screen / full screen to lower right).
All the time I have to copy the needed Keyframes and have to paste them on the new direction, but this needs many time.
So my question: Is it possible to make presets for the keyframe actions? Means, if I reach a position where I need the action
"right to full screen" I have to klick only one Preset Button and the keyframes will be added at this position!
Hope there is a possibility.
Best regards and sorry for my bad english!

Hello,
You can try the following work around with composition:-
1) Add a you tube video to the page.
2) Drag the video to the target of composition widget.
3) Resize the video to have the size of the target.
The triggers can have the images related to the videos so as to act as thumbnails for videos.
