Preview problems in CS5

When I preview from the tool bar chapter 1 plays, but reverts back to the beginning at the end of the clip rather than moving on to the next chapter. I have created 5 chapters with poster points and they all look and work fine. Chapter one is set up to play first. I've been using PP since ver 1.5, but Encore has been quite challenging. I would really like to hook up with one of you pro's out there by telephone and computer to computer link.

Unable to get any telephone support from Adobe I charged ahead on my own using hit and miss method. There was a glitch in my first Encore file so I started with a new file and the problem went away. I liked the old PP before Encore where you could select templates within a built in library and burn to DVD. Encore is not very friendly.

Preview problems, Premiere CS5 Windows

Hi!
I´ve been using Premiere for 10 years, so I should know it pretty well, but this is my case:
I start Premiere, choose "New project", tried different sequence settings, but the DVCPro HD 25 (PAL) is the most relevant. Inside Premiere, I import a clip, and drag it onto the timeline. So far, everything´s normal. The problems starts when I press the space button for preview. The only thing´s happening is the play symbol changes to a stop symbol in the composition window. No timecode´s running, no moving marker, and only a still image in the composition window. I can jog it frame by frame, and I can move the marker, and everything is fine, but also no playback. The play button in comp window does not make a change.
My next problem is to get this version to work with my Black Magic Decklink Extreme. I have an output signal, but no picture.
My system:
Pentium i7
12GB RAM
Win 7
Anybody?

Thanks, but I´ve found a problem with my Decklink Extreme PCI card. The Premiere preview problem happens only when I´m using any Black Magic presets. Is Decklink Extreme PCI/windows 7/Adobe CS5 a bad combination? I´m not able to get any picture on my monitor from the decklink what so ever (composite/component), but there´s a signal there (black video). Worked fine in XP (with CS3), kind of worked in win7 with my old configuration (4GB RAM, single core AMD-processor), and absolutely no response now.

Bridge CS5 preview problems.

Hello, all.
I am experiencing a problem with CS5 I didn't have before when running CS4. After downloading all CR2 files from my Canon DSLR I am not able to display the previews as sharp as they always were. I can open these images in Photoshop CS5 or even in Apple's own Preview application as sharp as they can be. However, I can't seem to be able to do the same with Bridge.
So far I've tried the following without any success:
1. Preferences > Thumbnails
     - Entered 200000 MB under "Do Not Process Files Larger Than:"
2. Preferences > Cache
     - Checked option "Keep 100% Previews In Cache"
3. On Bridge's Menu (upper control bar), selected:
     - "Always High Quality"
     - "Generate 100% Previews"
After selecting all the options above I've tried purging and then rebuilding the cache but it didn't seem to improve. As I select slideshow display mode to see the images enlarged to full screen size the images once again appear soft and out of focus.
Any ideas as to what might be the problem ?
In case the information is relevant I am using an Apple 30" Cinema Display.
Thanks,
Joe

Smash87,
Thanks for your reply and suggestion.
I have already tried what you suggested but it didn't work at first. I will try it again just to see if it works this time but to be frank I don't expect it will.
Another problem is the fact that I didn't have this issue with CS4 which is the version you are using. The problem appeared once I switched to CS5. The fact that your issue was resolved in CS4 is no guarantee the same will happen to CS5. In fact, it is almost a given it will not considering Adobe's track record with Bridge. Every new version of Bridge brings along with it a new set of problems and challenges. I am really getting tired of it. Now please keep in mind that my collection of images includes a few thousands of folders each containing anywhere between 200 and 1000 images. Adobe shouldn't have to force a customer to have to purge the cache and rebuild all previews when this customer (as it is my case) has thousands of folders and/or images. This is just insane.
They really need to get this application working right. One would imagine that it would have happened by now since they have already had 5 versions of this application to do it plus the file browser application experience before Bridge was formally introduced. So, what is happening Adobe ???
Thanks again for your help and suggestion.

ProRes to Blu-Ray H.264, then Preview problems in Encore CS5

Hello all,
I've been taking 90 minute or so ProRes 422 QuickTimes (29.97 interlaced) into Media Encoder CS 5 and creating H.264 Blu-Ray files for use in Encore CS5. I'm using the 1080i maximum quality setting and adjusting it so that target bitrate is 25mbps and max is 30. Also doing 2-pass VBR.
The issue I'm having is when I import these files into Encore CS5 and then preview them in a timeline they are artifacting all over the place. They look like my cable signal when it breaks up, except through the entire program. I've re-transcoded in the Media Encoder and am having the same issue. I've also tried transcoding within Encore (which is really the same thing), and still it persists. I haven't made a BD-R yet to check that and I know the preview in Encore CS 5 is very buggy. But I'm wondering -- has anyone run into this? Is this just a preview problem, or is there something actually wrong with the transcodes?
Also, if anyone has a tip for where I can open the *.m4v files coming out of Media Encoder so that I can check them somewhere other than in Encore that would be awesome. VLC player doesn't work, neither does QuickTime. Thanks everyone!
Best,
JD

Jeff,
Thanks for the response. Here are the answers to your questions:
Some obvious but necessary checks:
Are you authoring in a Blu-ray project and not a DVD project? YES, it is a 1080i 29.97 Blu-Ray project.
Are you checking the transcode status column for Blu-ray and not DVD? Definitely looking at the transcode status for Blu-Ray, and not DVD.
If all is OK with those checks, then please check the audio:
Are the files multiplexed? If so, try elementary streams.
Are you using elementary streams? If so, try multiplexed.
On these notes -- what is a good way for me to know if the transcoded files are multiplexed or elementary? The interesting thing is that when I bring in the M4V and WAV files into Encore from what AME creates, the WAV file does NOT require transcoding, but the video file (M4V) does.
Regarding the preview issue I was having it's worth noting that when I checked back in preferences the playback quality was still set to DRAFT, as if when I switched it to HIGH it just didn't take (and I tried this more than once). I put it to HIGH again today and this time it seems it took, as preview playback quality is good again. Just seems strange to me that Encore has a mind of it's own sometimes with certain things.
I'm really more concerned with the transcoding at this point. I did a project a couple weeks back where I just bit the bullet and transcoded the M4V again in Encore to author the ISO file, and several chapters of the program came out stuttering on the disc. The original Quicktime source is fine and the preview playback on it was fine during those chapters. I can't seem to find a throughline for these problems -- just seems to happen every now and then and can't control it.
I authored a 53 minute 1080p 23.98 disc in early January that worked beautifully. Everything was great - no problems.

Printing problem in cs5 and imac 27

I have been running my Epson Stylus Pro 4800 on a macbook pro and cs3, for a couple of years with no problems whatsoever. I have now upgraded to a new iMac 27"and have had nothing but problems with the 4800. I have made my own profils and used Epson paper profiles but the prints are not as colourful as they used and totally wrong as well. I am also getting totally oversized prints compared to what image seize in ps is set to be.....for example, I have been doing a 10x21 test picture on Premium Lustre paper (photoshop is managing the colours through CS5, but it is printing the image at least 1,5 the size that it should be. All my settings are correct, dpi is 300, I'm printing at 1440dpi resolution on the correct profiles for the paper. I am at a loss to understand why this is happening. Is anyone able to assist me?
I can do the printing in preview and that is looking quite ok. But trough photoshop it is bad colors and wrong size on the print.
Regards Ulfja

I saw you're having a printing problem with CS5 while using an Epson printer. I'm having a problem too. Read my situation and see if you think it's similiar to yours. I posted this about an hour ago but have not heard from anyone yet.
I'm having problems getting good prints when using Photoshop CS5 with my Epson Photo R2880 printer, problems I never had with CS4. Here's the situation:
If I take a PSD file and print it using CS4, everything works out perfectly. But if I take that same PSD file and print it out using CS5, the print is now offset top to bottom, as well as left to right, along with a 1/8" black strip being printed down the right edge of the paper. As far as I can tell, everything is set the same.
I've compared all the print information found in the Print dialog summary box between CS4 and CS5 and everything appears to be the same. I've verified that I'm using the latest print driver with my printer, and I am. It's 8.27. I've verified that I've checked off the box to center the print to the paper, each time I've made a print. And in trying to figure out what's going on, I've discovered that this problem occurs with any paper size when using CS5, but not with CS4.
I'm stumped and frustrated and without any more ideas as to what I should do next, except to always print my projects using CS4. If anyone has an idea for me, please let me know!
I'm sorry I don't have any suggestions for you. The colors I'm getting in my prints from CS5 seem to be alright, but not the positioning on paper. It keeps offsetting and running a black stripe down one side. Fortunately I have CS4 on my computer that I can use to print from, but it shouldn't be this way.
Good luck!

Previews in Bridge CS5 are not sharp

The preview panel images in Bridge CS5 are not sharp (almost blurry). Also when I select a thumb and view it using the space bar method (from within the Bridge) the image doesn't appear sharp. Anybody have an idea why? They look fine in Bridge CS4. I've been looking for a preference setting to no avail. Doesn't matter if it's RAW or JPG (same results).
When I select an image and view it using the space bar method (while in the finder) it looks sharp/normal.
Thanks.

[I've replied to the wrong thread, but this is still relevant]
The soft previews also affect raw images which have been cropped within Camera Raw. The 100% preview within Bridge looks soft compared to when editing in Camera Raw.
Raw images which haven't been cropped look sharp at 100% magnification, but not fit-to-screen.
The raw files I'm dealing with are CR2, not DNG. However, I converted one to DNG and tried the full size jpeg preview option, but it looks the same. Even if it did work, it would mean converting all CR2 files to DNG, which is a lot of extra work to get round this one problem.
Here's what I'm seeing. They are both viewed at 100%. The first file shows a screen capture of the Bridge preview, the second within Camera Raw. Again, the raw files are cropped images, which seems to cause this 100% preview problem.

GRAPHIC CARDS AND 10.6.4 PROBLEMS - MAKES CS5 CRASHING!

Photoshop CS5 has crashed on me several times today and *my screen becoming extremely distorted and flickering very fast, locking up the Mac and not responding at all*, leaving me to reboot.
I tried PS CS5 in 32-Bit mode, and it is still crashing.
+That crash just started appearing with the delivery of MacOS 10.6.4+. (Acobe engineers found unknown crashes moving up the statistics and had engineers looking at them) It is related to OpenGL, and probably to a driver update delivered with 10.6.4.
Adobe has found no problems with CS5 and this is a problem related to Apples 10.6.4
This has been discussed with users and engineers at Adobe here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2957823#2957823
We are working on a very important project with one of our main clients - and really needs this resolved asap! This is not just affecting gamers but creative professionals.
Is there any news on this issue?
Thank you very much,
Kim

A business that is using the latest OS, would also be taking risks, and would have been prudent and conservative, having multiple bootable backups to work with, and realize these things happen.
Other than a brand new Mac that doesn't work with Leopard I can see having to have 10.6.3.
As to how long since release to move production up from CS4 to CS5? well, people really detest the IT-minded for their "test, retest, and don't deploy until the testing is done" approach.
I assume "graphic cards" and you have a Mac Pro 2009 w/ ATI 4870 or GTX 285, but your post was scant on that, and it is really helpful to have a more complete .sig with hardware profile to see.
There is a patch from Nvidia for GTX 285. You should be able to roll-back to 10.6.3.

RAM Preview Problems in After Effects CC

AE CS 6 RAM Previews work, but two problems to report with AE CC on the same computer. Possibly two faces of the same problem.
1. Having QuickTime Player open while doing a RAM preview makes the RAM preview stutter. I quit the player, and now the RAM preview plays back without dropping a frame, though Info palate shows "fps: 24 (realtime)", but the RAM preview playback is slow: ie, a tenor sounds like a baritone.
2. A RAM preview that looked and sounded fine last night, is now playing back slowly (tenor sounds like a baritone), though Info Palate shows "fps: 24 (realtime)". I have no other applications open. The only thing that changed is that I quit AE, slept the computer, slept a little myself, and then launched AE. Trashing the cache files (manually), rebooting, relaunching and re-RAM-previewing creates a functional RAM preview, so I assume there is some problem with the cached files or the retrieval of them.
Is anyone else getting either of these? If so, what is your system configuration?
Also, I posted on another thread that Quicktime import/render works with AE CS6 on this computer, but AE CC can not import, play, or render QT reliably (without throwing error messages). Perhaps all of this is part of the same problem.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Benjamin
CS 6 CC | Mac OS 10.8.4 | MacPro5,1 | 96 GB Ram | PROJECT & MEDIA drive: Mercury Accelsior > 500 MB/s read/write | CACHE drive: Mercury Accelsior > 500 MB/s read/write | Nvidia Quadro 4000 Mac | CUDA Driver: latest update | Wacom Intuos 5

96 GB RAM is accessible in 10.8.4 on my machine according to OWC. I'm working on a stereoscopic 4K project with large files and hundreds of layers. I regurlarly render with AE MP while working with huge files in PS, and am glad to see the % of RAM AE uses displayed in my render cue between 3 and 60%.
I have 12 processors (24 with hyperthreading)
I have reserved 10 for other applications leaving 14 for After Effects
4 GB per x 14 = 56 GB for AE. leaving 40 GB for everything else
I've played with what and how much I have allocated being sure to keep the CPU counts even, but this does not fix the RAM preview problems described above. Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Benjamin

CS4 Premiere Pro General file format & preview problems

I was redirected here after posting my complaint on Twitter, so please excuse my forum manner.
I've been using Adobe Premiere Pro (CS4) for about a year now, and I've been editing videos along with other packages with no problem. (Only problem being my slow processor). Up until last week Premiere Pro has been completely fine. But seeing I have a project deadline next month, I thought I would spend a day trying to kick-start the video editing.
My source videos were originally photograph-frames animated in Flash CS4 into .MOV, decided to use the H.264 output codec. As I have finished exporting my needed videos, I imported them into Premiere Pro as usual, as I have in the past. But then I encountered the common problem that I have seen quite a few have also encountered with .MOV, or jsut general "no-preview" problem when the source video is fine.
I then took a day to research online about Premiere Pro's compatability with .MOV, among other container and formats. Upon using softwares such as MediaInfo and GSpot, I found that there might have been a problem with missing Codecs within my Adobe package. I then tried to convert the .MOV into .MPG (mpeg2), hoping such standard codec would work with Premiere Pro as they they in the past. No result avail.
I then turned to the uninstall route (retaining user info) and re-installing. The problem has NOT been fixed, what's more is that it crashes almost instantly after I try rendering the workplace. (Even post-rendering does not show the preview, but the files in the Adobe folder, does). Here's a screencap to my latest workplace, if it helps:
[IMG]http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k83/neo0031/AdobePreProcap.jpg[/IMG]
Before the re-install, I believe I was running Premiere Pro CS4's latest update (4.2.x) something, now it is back to 4.0.0. But I don't think that is where the main problem is? I recently changed my locale from a certain language to Japanese to run a certain program. Would that be causing the problem(s)?
Does anyone know a way that I can FIX this? Any help is appreciated and I thank you all in advance.
I am using a Sony Vaio NS series laptop,
a 2.0 GHz Intel Pentium Dual Core processor
3GB RAM,
intergrated graphics Intel Chipset Family Series 4( I think).
Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit.
I tried moving the Scratch disks from an external portable hard drive to the local hard drive, to no result.
Again, any help is appreciated. I would appreciate direct advice rather than links. Thanks again.
Neo.

I have updated my CS4, Ppro to 4.2.1. The problem still remains. Would it have anything to do with my project setting? I don't have much knowledge to setting one up. The difference between the AVC projects and etc?
EDIT : I took the problem to my lecturer, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but his "magic touch" click on the preview panel (Main composition) has made the video show up! But even after render, it won't play. But scrubbing along frames is now fixed. Any idea what's causing the no-preview-playback?

I got render and RAM preview problems. help?

i got render and RAM preview problems with after effects! please help me
when i started on a project earlier today the RAM preview was failing and it stoped making a preview after about a second, when i hit the RAM preview buttom again it continued to load and stoped again after a half second, and it continued to do that till it wasn't loading at all, just playing the same thing up even doe it haden't loaded the whole composition! BUT if i moved the (thing you see where you are on the timeline in need of a better name) it started loading a little more and then it stoped again.. so after alot of problems and moving i managed to make a RAM preview of the whole composition..
now the real problem: when i was done with my project and i was going to reender i did like this: i added my composition to the render queue, chosed my render settings and started to render, after exactly 37 frames it stoped and no window or anything poped up, the only thing that was telling me something was wrong was the render status, and it said: ''failed at 0;00;00;37'' that's not even a second! and BTW when i render after effects only uses 12% of my 6GB RAM memory.. i dont know what to do! i've tried other render settings but the same thing happens! can anyone help me?
BTW i'm swedish and only 14 so i might misspelled something..

Start here and make sure that you understand how RAM preview is supposed to work first:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/424030
What version of After Effects? Have you installed the recent updates? What operating system? What kind(s) of source footage? Has this ever worked before? What other software are you running? Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed? Are you rendering with OpenGL?
What are your Memory & Multiprocessing settings? Are you using Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing?
