Preview Timeline Issues in Premiere Pro CC

Hi,
I am wokring on my feature film and since the last 2-3 days I have notice my PREVIWE RENDERS on the timeline stagger. When i give for rendering, the render just keeps increasing, the number of frames increase...sort of like a variable frame render...and just goes on and on !
I uninstalled Premiere CC and installed, changed hard drives. Still the problem persists !
Please suggest what to do !
Thanks

To get the fix for this bug, you will need to update. But I suspect you don't absolutely need the fix for the bug as there are workarounds. There's probably just a small number of problem spots in the sequence that are causing the issue. Perhaps only one. So render the sequence in segments defined by In/Out points until you find a problem spot. Then simply skip that point.
All of which begs the question as to whether you really need to render at all. In case you're not aware, doing so is entirely optional for purposes of smoother playback. If your computer is powerful enough, it may not be necessary.

  • Major Issues with Premiere Pro CC

    I am currently having some major issues with Premiere Pro CC running on my macbook pro(specs below).
    I am trying to export a 4 minute video using the vimeo 1080p export settings as I usually do, and it takes about 10 hours to export the video. On cs6, a similar project would take 5-10 minutes.
    Also, the video that was exported contained a lot of clips that came out choppy and low quality.
    I am currently on the phone with tech support, and they cannot seem to figure out what is wrong.
    I have seen a few post about CC having issues with amd cards, but nothing has been confirmed yet.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated since this job is past due due to these issues.

    You neglected to specify exactly which release of PPro CC you are running. There have been 5 of them.
    If you're on CC7.2 or 7.2.1, then you may be hitting the same problem discussed in one of these threads:

  • Graphics Card issues with Premiere Pro CS4

    Hey there,
    I've placed the screenshot of my problem at the bottom of this post.
    I'm having lots of issues with premiere pro CS4 and editing videos since I upgraded to Windows 7. I have some .mpg and .MP4 videos. Both of which play fine in WMP, VLC, WinAmp, VirtualDJ etc. But when I load them into PPRO CS4, as you can see in the screenshot they go green and pink. And they don't move. I.e you see one still image and hear only audio.
    Now a fix I have found for this is to uninstall my graphics card. But this is no way an option to edit videos, as the resoultion goes from 1920 x 1080 to 1024 x 768.
    I should add that I am runnig the following system:
    Dell Vostro 1000 Latpop
    Windows 7 Ultimate 32Bit
    2.00Ghz AMD Sempron Processor
    2GB RAM
    ATI Radeon XPress 1150 Graphics card
    I have the latest graphics card drivers installed. I am just wondering what the problem is, and a potential fix. Would be great to hear any advice,
    Regards,
    Adam.

    OK, here are some other things to think about:
    ATI/AMD Catalyst seems to have an issue with one of the latest versions, maybe rollback to an earlier version.
    Depending on your OS, check Hardware Acceleration (though this usually affect smoothness of playback) in Control Panel>System>Hardware>Advanced.
    Check your OpenGL settings.
    In Catalyst, turn OFF any GPU Acceleration
    That's about all that I can think of for now, and those are shots in the dark.
    Good luck,

  • Syncing footage with music track issue in Premiere Pro CC

    My experience with Premiere Pro is still limited to basic editing. Recently I've been asked to help out a friend to edit a music video. I've done this before in Final Cot Pro X but decided to switch due to the integration of Adobe CC.
    The issue I am facing is that all footage that has been shot is delivered to me at 23.976 fps but with the audio playing faster. The audio track after importing is being played back at 29.97 fps and plays at normal speed.
    The solution I have found so far is to slow down each clip to 80% so it matches the original audio track. This is not ideal I found out while editing, so it would be better to have each clip rendered to its original state of 29.97 fps.
    After some more research I discovered that it is possible to re-render each clip to its original speed in After Effects, and even apply frame blending. Then import all back in Premiere Pro.
    My question is if the road I am following here is the correct one.
    Thank you!

    by reducing the speed in the timeline, i think it does the same thing as forcing interpret footage. the difference is by changing it in the bin before starting, you can change all clips at once. just make sure to set the sequence fps to the final output fps, not matching the changed fps of clips.  you can also right click the footage on the timeline and choose frame blend, but i think it ends up doing the same thing as the export option you are using. the difference on the timeline is you can see the frame blend while editing. AE is extremely slow and might not look any better, so where u are on deadline, forget about it.  so in premiere i think frame blend on vs off is your only real option to change the behavior of the slow-mo.
    the slow mo trick is nice for music videos, but yeah, for best results the camera needs to be sped up with the song on set. then in post both are slowed back down, replacing the song/audio with the original song at normal speed. 23.976 or 29.97 are both acceptable in NTSC usa land.  23.976 has gotten alot of attention as the "film look" since it has more motion blur, while 29.97 has a cleaner video look. below are some numbers i found somewhere and kept. so if the final render fps is known, can choose the correct shooting fps for on set with matching sped up or slowed down music.  the italic values would be used to end up with sped up footage, while the Bold values would be used for slo-motion effect. i haven't used these but the numbers look right. he could have shot at 29.97(30) fps and slowed it down to 23.976 in post to get the 80% slow-mo.
    For an NTSC/US, using a 24p timebase, for the following frame rates, adjust the song speed to:
    12 fps: make song last 1.956x longer by stretching it to 51.1% speed
    18 fps: make song last 1.333x longer by stretching it to 75.0% speed
    20 fps: make song last 1.226x longer by stretching it to 81.6% speed
    22 fps: make song last 1.067x longer by stretching it to 93.7% speed
    26 fps: make song last 0.907x as long as normal; play it at 110.25% speed
    30 fps: make song last 0.800x as long as normal; play it at 125% speed
    32 fps: make song last 0.747x as long as normal; play it at 133.87% speed
    36 fps: make song last 0.672x as long as normal; play it at 148.81% speed
    48 fps: make song last 0.498x as long as normal; play it at 200.80% speed
    60 fps: make song last 0.400x as long as normal; play it at 250.00% speed
    For an NTSC/US,  using a 30p timebase, for the following frame rates, adjust the song speed to:
    12 fps: make song last 2.445x longer by stretching it to 40.91% speed
    18 fps: make song last 1.667x longer by stretching it to 60.00% speed
    20 fps: make song last 1.533x longer by stretching it to 65.23% speed
    22 fps: make song last 1.333x longer by stretching it to 75.01% speed
    24 fps: make song last 1.250x as long as normal; play it at 80.00% speed
    26 fps: make song last 1.134x as long as normal; play it at 88.22% speed
    32 fps: make song last 0.933x as long as normal; play it at 107.14% speed
    36 fps: make song last 0.840x as long as normal; play it at 119.05% speed
    48 fps: make song last 0.622x as long as normal; play it at 160.73% speed
    60 fps: make song last 0.500x as long as normal; play it at 200.00% speed

  • Black Preview // No Picture in Premiere Pro CC 2014 // MCP Retina 15" (2013)

    Dear fellow Premiere Pro users,
    I am facing a problem recently.
    When editing it quite often happens that the picture in the sequence monitor and preview monitor from one moment to the other just turn black and stay so until I restart the app.
    I also witnessed a graphical distortion when using premiere. The screen "crashes" which means that it really looks like an electrically distorted pixel crash thing.
    Both occurences do not depend on what kind of footage is used. It happens with DSLR footage as well as Blackmagic Material.
    Both Problems do not seem to be connected to each other since they also appear seperately. But sometimes they pair up. Wehn that happens Premiere just freezes and I have to force quitting.
    I assume that there might be a problem with the graphic processor or the graphic card or both.
    Hardware and software check ups did not find any problems. I also have CUDA updated as well as all my other Adobe apps.
    The system partition has more than enough free space and i care about my MCP not to get too hot.
    Does anyone have that problem or can imagine what might go on inside the app or hardware?
    Thanks for your efforts and time. Appreciate it!

    Thanks for posting that info.  This mirrors the issues I'm seeing with DSLR footage.
    It's so hit or miss if it's going to flicker.  I'll delete renders and re-render and certain clips will be fine, others are now flickering.  I tried to make a test project that demonstrated this issue, but couldn't reproduce the effect.  RGB Curves and Three Way CC are in my list of effects, as well, where I see the issue.
    Just curious, is anyone else working on projects started in other versions/computers?  I've seen it on project started in PPro CC and finished in CC'14.  Saw it again on a project started on Mac in FCP7, converted to CC'14 Win7.  Quite honestly, I haven't been starting projects myself in CC'14 because of the flicker issues.
    As a workaround, I was hoping to import the CC'14 project back into CC or Media Encoder CC, but no luck there.
    Another issue I've had with CC'14 includes converting a CC project to CC'14, giving it to a CC'14 Mac user and the A/V sync is lost.  We abandoned that collaboration all together because of the issues.  CC'14 has been incredibly unproductive to my workflow, despite the great interface update and various other features added.  I haven't had mystery issues like this since CS4.  I'm keeping our post team in CC as much as possible until the issues are resolved.

  • Display Issues in Premiere Pro CS4

    I'm having some weird display glitches in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 in the timeline area. I attached a picture that shows what it looks like. This happens whenever I drag clips on the timeline and it makes it so it takes a lot longer to edit my videos.
    I'm really hoping that Apple or Adobe fixes this issue. I really can't afford to upgrade my creative suite to CS 5.5! And I would prefer to stick with OS X Lion.
    Well it looks like I can't upload an image. Any ideas?

    Keep in mind that the following sustained transfer rates - as a rough rule of thumb - apply:
    SATA & eSATA: 80 - 100 MBps
    Firewire 800:       50 - 60 MBps
    Firewire 400:       30 - 35 MBps
    USB2:                20 - 25 MBps (depending on other USB devices connected it could be even lower.)
    I agree that your storage capacity with 1 TB is enough, but the interface is too slow. If you do not have an eSATA port on you Vaio, you can get a Xpress card to eSATA connector with two eSATA ports to cover that. Also keep in mind that the C drive may be a 4200 or 5400 RPM disk and not 7200.
    Mininmum requirements state: a DEDICATED 7200 RPM disk and while your USB disk is 7200, it lacks in the sustained transfer rate when compared to SATA or eSATA. BTW I think Adobe should explicitly mention SATA or better.
    Above I mentioned for USB depending on other USB devices attached. USB shares the bandwidth among all devices connected. If you have a USB stick connected, a USB receiver for wireless keyboard or mouse, a USB printer, they all have to share the bandwidth and further reduce the sustained transfer rates of the USB disk.
    Hope this explains it a bit.

  • Video Playback Issue in Premiere Pro CS6

    I am editing a video with 2 video tracks on top of each other. When I scrub through the timeline or jusy hit play in the timeline the top layer of video scales to about 50% and plays on top of the layer below it. But it didn't do that 2 days ago. Any ideas on what could cause that? I have attached a screen capture of what it looks like while playing back. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
    ::Premiere Pro CS6 (v 6.0.5) and a Macbook Pro running OSX 10.9 on a SSD, and 8GB RAM::

    They are both 1280x720 but they were shot on 2 different cameras. The thing that is killing me is that I have done this exact same camera setup and editing before without this issue. And it only scales the top layer video down while scrubbing or playing back (spacebar). When the playhead is still it pops back to normal.

  • Timeline dead in Premiere Pro CC?

    I've been using Premiere Pro CS6 long enough to get used to it. Today, I downloaded the Premiere Pro CC trial to see how I like it. Well, it loads and plays clips in the preview monitor just file, but that's all folks!!  I am totally unable to drag any kind of clip/file/image/audio...anything onto the timeline!! When I try, the cursor icon just shows the circle with a line through it (I call it the 'nope, can't do that' icon). Also, the timeline just shows two empty tracks instead of the multiple tracks CS6 shows. This is on a pretty fast Win 7 machine, and the present Premiere CC setup is the default, as it was installed.
    Well, without a working timeline the program is pretty much useless. I'm sure it must be something I've overlooked, but what?    Thanks!

    Thanks for the tip! I was able to start a timeline with the file>new>sequence. Would have liked to use the New item button for this, but since the Media Browser is in a different window then the New item button, dropping clips and files to this button is a bit tricky.
    One other thing, CS6 allowed one to expand the tracks right on the timeline (which I notice in CC is not a fixed window like in CS6) to adjust audio volume or balance with keyframes). CC doesn't allow for expanded tracks, so how does one make these adjustments?
    I have and like After Effects CC, but after a few hours of working with Premiere CC, I want to go back to Premiere CS6. Have other people felt this way??           Thanks!

  • Rendering issue in Premiere Pro CC

    I have a problem when I'm rendering my timeline. It seems when I select render sequence in to out, the render seems to get hungup towards the end of render. What I mean is that around 98% the render goes incredible slow and sometimes never finishes. If I cancel the render nothing will have been rendered. In FCP if you cancelled the render, it would have saved what you have already rendered, so if you were at 98% in the render, 98% of the timeline would be saved. It seems a little better if I select render effects in to out. What is the difference between  render sequence in to out or render effects in to out?  When I render I use the mercury playback engine gpu acceleration and the only application I have open is premiere pro CC.
    Another question, does it make any difference for export if you render the sequence first and then export? Or is it just as fast to export the sequence without it being rendered? In FCP if you rendered your sequence first the export would be really fast. Somebody told me that even if you render your sequence in Premiere Pro, when you export it will have to re-render the sequence, is that true?

    As to the first paragraph, have you tried rendering out software-only, with the MPE turned off? For some people, they've had hangs on renders with the MPE on. Also, make sure you've got the latest drivers for your card ... and you might want to search the forum to see if there's been similar problems with that card for others. Some cards are not as nice at playing with Adobe (even though listed as 'certified') as others.
    As to render before outputting, those are actually two different steps & processes ... confusing titling of the two things causes a lot of problems methinks. "Render" on the timeline within a PrPro project creates previews the program uses in the playback monitor, NOT a final-qulaity image. Not same quality et al, according to Adobe staff. Frequently posters here complain about slow renders with lousy quality and they'd rendered the entire sequence out, then checked the box on output "render" (perhaps 'encoding' would be a better term?) to use previews thinking it would speed things up.
    But it didn't speed things, it just meant their output was dumbed-down to the quality of the previews.

    Hello, I had to update the driver due to premiere stating I had an outdated driver.  After installation everything seemed fine however today when I opened premiere my source and preview windows showed black, no video.  My edits and source files were all still there.  Sound from my clips played but no video.  I have Mercury playback set to hardware.  When I switch it to software the video images return.  Has anyone else had an issue with this driver in Premiere pro and did you find a solution?  I did a search and this seems to be an issue with drivers.  Hope they fix it in the next update. Thanks.

    Thank you everyone,  I just figured it out.  For some reason in my NVIDIA Control panel-Manage 3d settings-Global settings Preferred Graphics processor drop down was set to Auto-Select.  I switched it to the NVIDIA card and everything seems back to normal.  Phew! 
    Harm,  I used your system configuration guide to set up my system. That really helped take the confusion out of proper system configuration.  Thank you for writing that.

  • Make timeline more like Premiere Pro?

    On Elements, the audio and video on the timeline are coupled, one right beneath the other. Is there any way to make it function more like the Premiere Pro timeline with audio and video completely separate?

    Im just an anachronism. I like my complete, customizable and controllable Timelines, ála Pro. I did not use other PE versions before PE4, so do not know exactly when Adobe chose to move to the new, streamlined, sleek Timeline. However, I miss the old style, that gave me so much control. This is probably the biggest reason that I have not embraced PE (over my PP2), even for shorter Projects, like I had intended.
    Now, I am not trying to sell one version, over another. I just like the way that PPs Timeline works and have grown to love and know its workflow. So much depends on what one is used to and how they like to work. I am just hoping that CS4 Pro does not go the way of PE, regardless of how nice it might appear.

  • 5.1 Audio issue in Premiere Pro CC

    Hello All,
    So I have the latest Premiere Pro CC with the most current updates and a Sony HD camera that records videos with 5.1 Dolby Digital sound. When I create a project and import the files using Media Browser, I get the error message: "Dolby Audio Decode Licensing Restriction for <file path>", I'm on a Windows 7 64-bit machine, the files are on M2TS format, I imported them from the camera to the computer using PlayMemories Home, the software also copies a M2TSMODD file to the same location. I've seen a lot of people complaining about this issue with CS6 but not CC, I've reinstalled the software twice now, is there anything I can do other than trying to extract the audio with another software and import the audio file? This is really a bummer.

    I had this problem this evening 090813 after upgrading my Adobe Cloud Desktop. 
    I open Pro CC and had the  Dolby Audio Decode Licensing Restriction for (File name.......... )       Error
    Previous CC progs loaded and worked with problem.
    I uninstalled Pro CC - Restarted the computer - Re-installed Pro CC.
    Now working with no problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I shorten the length of the timeline in Adobe Premiere Pro?

    This is my first time using Adobe Premiere Pro.  I created a slideshow of images with music. The entire length with all of the images ends up being around 40 minutes.  The length of the entire timeline is over 10 hours.  I had finished my slideshow and exported it in a .mov format.  The exported file ended up being a 10 hour long video with the first 40 minutes being the actual slideshow and the rest of it was blank.  That file ended up being about 140 GB in size.  All that I want to do is to cut off the rest of the time after the first 40 minutes.  PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Set In and Out Points or the Work Area Bar to the Head and Tail of your edit.
    The when you Export..use either of those as a setting to tell the exporter what  to export.  There is a Menu for it in AME.

  • Can't Preview HDV Capture In Premiere Pro CS6

    I just figured it out.
    I'm using 2 monitors in extended mode.
    One is a VGA flat panel and the other is a DVI flat panel.
    I had the Capture Window open on my VGA monitor.
    When I moved the Capture Window to my DVI monitor, I got a preview picture.
    It's funny, when I move the Capture Window from the DVI to the VGA while playing, playing stops.
    And when I move it bak to the DVI, it continues to play.
    Maybe because the VGA isn't digital?
    Both monitos are hooked up to my GTX 470 GPU, so it seems wierd.
    Any feedback on this would be welcomed.
    Thanks again!

  • XDCAM audio issues in Premiere Pro CC

    We run 4 New Mac Pro Towers at my shop with Adobe Creative Cloud, and we're editing on Premiere Pro CC. We were a Final Cut 7 shop until we were forced to choose between PP or FCX. I've recently been experiencing audio issues when ingesting XDCAM footage from my Sony EX3 Camera. While the video looks great when ingested into either XDCAM Browser, or when I drop the BPAV file into our external drive and bring it into PPCC, the audio becomes noisy and unusable.; while this same audio sounds excellent on all my other machines. I've uninstalled both the XDCAM Browser and Premiere software and reinstalled them, but have not had any luck so far. Meantime, none of my other machines are experiencing this issue. Any assistance would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    One way, assuming you are working in mono, pan A1 center and A2 right, this will give ambience to left and ambience and narration to right. If you are mixing and you don't want the ambience only track to change in level you will need to use subgroups but this will get more involved.
