Problems with .aaf import in premiere pro cc

Hi,
So I'm having problems with importing an aaf file into premiere. The weird thing is it was working about a week and a bit ago, then stopped. I can't work out why, to my knowledge nothing has changed but if someone could point me in the right direction that would be massively appreciated.
I'm using premiere pro cc and avid media composer. I'm trying to export from avid and import into premiere. I'm creating an .aaf file in avid and trying to import into premiere. When I press import, the progress bar comes up and gets stuck instantly. I can close the aaf import window, but then it leaves the import files progress bar still up and premiere stops responding completely.
At first it worked fine, within premiere I can still use the aaf files already imported, I just can't import more (I can't even import the files I had previously done successfully). I just can't work out why?
Any help would be massively appreciated,
Thanks,
Jack

  • Problems with Dinamic Link between Premiere pro CC and After Effects CC

    I'm having serious problems with dinamic link between premiere pro and after effects, really serious problems that have 2 big projects in trouble (a documentary and a video clip) and I had to redo all the work pipeline to the consumer.
    The documentary for a spanish TV was made on CC 2014 and a video clip was made on CC. Both of them with a lot of after effects composition in the premiere pro timeline. Render freeze, a lot of playback issues, and many more problems... Until I decided to remove these links between premiere and after effects and render out all the after effects compositions one by one and insert as clips in premiere pro. 1 week working away with back and fourth.
    I've got a huge workstation:
    i7 4990
    32Gb ram
    GTX780 3gb
    256 gb system ssd
    2 Tb project storage
    *All my hardware and software are update.
    I know that a lot of folks are on the same huge problem and I want to ask everyone:
    How do you save this?
    What is your pipeline?
    Are there any solution?
    Best practice to use dinamic link in a huge project?
    Thanks,

    Thank You, Jim -
    Unfortunately that specifically did not work.
    Based on another comment sent to me, here is what did.
    In PProCC
    File > Adobe Dynamic Link > New After Effects Composition
    In AECC
    From that composition created from PPro, I imported the project (aep) initially created in AECC from another team member. Saved the file.
    Back in PProCC
    File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Import After Effects Composition
    Magic.

  • Problems with time lapse in Premiere Pro cs5.5

    About a month ago I tried to make a time lapse with my Canon 7D.
    I imported the pictures to Lightroom and exported them as JPG. Than in Premiere Pro I clicked on import, selected the first image and checked the "numbered stills" box. It all worked as it should.
    Yesterday I tried to do this again. The only different thing is the cameras but I don't think that's the problem (it's the 5D mk2).
    When I import the photos as numbered stills in premiere pro it and drop it in the sequence all seems ok. When I move the slider in the sequence forward and backward it also seemed ok at first but now it shows no pictures but only a black screen with some noise (like tv noise). If I export it there is no movie, just black screen with noise.
    Where seems to be the problem?
    When I drop it into the sequence I can also change the scale of the image to fit the screen and that all seems ok... :/
    I can even play a preview inside the premiere pro and it's almost ok (it's not a smooth playback, but it plays as it should...tough it drops some frames).

    Welcome to the forum.
    When Still Images show as black, the first things that I investigate is the pixel x pixel dimensions of the images. With many Stills, even if they are within the allowed pixel x pixel range, one's computer's resources can be used up, and an alternate workflow might be useful - Scale the Images to match the Frame Size of the Sequence, prior to Import, in a program, like Photoshop. This ARTICLE might be helpful.
    The second thought is that the video driver is no longer performing properly, and needs to be updated. What is make/model of your graphics card, and what is the current number/date of your installed video driver?
    Good luck,

  • Glitch with .mov import in premiere pro cc

    I'm having trouble with one of my imported .mov files pixelating in premiere pro cc. The original video when I watch it with Quicktime is fine. So it appears to be a problem with premiere. I thought at first some of the effects I had been using were messing with it, but I started a new project and imported a clean version of the video and ran into the same problem without using any effects. I've attached a picture of what it's doing. Any thoughts? I'm using a 6 month old Macbook Pro... I've tried restarting my computer, restarting premiere, all the "usual" things to do when something is glitchy. Thanks.

  • What is the problem with Adobe Creative Cloud Premiere Pro CC 2014, why it freezes often?

    I Purchased the Adobe Creative Productive Premium Suite CS5 in early 2010 and I was very satisfied with it all this time, I can say that I never had a problem while using any of the Production Premium applications. Few weeks ago, I asked Mr. Philip Bloom about a technical issue regarding the best method to use a 50 FPS clip with a 23.976 FPS project, and I got his kind help but he recommended me too that I should upgrade to the latest Adobe Cloud CC 2014 which has many new features added to the different programs. I took his kind advice and downloaded a trial version of all the Adobe Cloud CC programs which I use for my filmmaking business.
    Today is the 20th day of my trial period and I have 10 days left to take the decision of continuing with CC 2014 or not. The past 20 trial days were not very pleasant. I want you to share with me the following details which I'll list them as bullet points and I would appreciate diagnosing the problem if you can and suggest a solution for it  to re-try the Adobe Cloud CC 2014 for the 10 remaining days with no further problems.
    I used to have the Gigabyte graphics card GTX 470 for about 4 years and it malfunctioned last year and I replaced it with a humble Geoforce GT 610 card, but it worked fine with the Adobe Suite CS5 programs.
    My system configuration is Intel Core I7   950@  3.07GHz , installed memory 12 GB. , Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit Service pack 1, 3 hard drives 1TB. each (one of them is dedicated for Adobe asset files and the editing work)
    For the first 2 or 3 days I used mainly the Premiere Pro CC 2014 establishing short projects for a max. of 5 minutes each and it was working normal. But, later, as soon as I started to build a project which reached about 24 minutes of length and I began to edit those before I add more clips to the timeline, unfortunately, the PrPro CC 2014 started to freeze on any of the frames every time I try to edit normally as I used to do with the CS5, so, I had to wait for 2 or 3 minutes every time it freezes, then it works for seconds then freezes again!!  and during the 20 days mentioned above it crashed once.
    The movie files of my project are the Nikon's .Mov files and the editing work which I performed included effects such as Color correction (levels) color correction (fast) color correction (Auto) sharpen effect, and stabilizing effect.
    I installed the Magic Bullets Suite trial version, and the Neat Video trial version, aiming to purchase either the DeNoiser or the Neat Video (but I tried their effects without saving them to the project).
    I used to export parts/ or whole project before finalizing the editing process to be able to monitor on a TV screen (mp4 file format) some of the changes I made in PrPro before being freezed.
    Based on my previous 5 years experience using the CS5 Suite I have a strong trust in Adobe, I never thought the problem was in the PrPro application, but rationally I thought it was the graphic card (GT610), and accordingly I purchased yesterday a new Zotac Geoforce GTX 770 (listed by Adobe as an approved card) and I installed it and checked that it is running fine and I checked the processor temperature which was within the normal level.
    Only today, I began to think that it might be something wrong with the Adobe Cloud CC 2014 ( a bug or something) and as a result of searching on the internet I could see lot of users since 2014 who were having freezes and crashes with the CC and the CC 2014 versions. That was a shock for me, could it be that until Feb. 2015 the same severe problem still occurs???
    Sorry for any inconvenience, looking forward to seeing a solution for that serious problem.

    Hello Ashraf,
    Sorry you didn't get any help on this post. In the future, please contact Adobe Support for 1-1 assistance on issues like this: Contact Customer Care

  • Problems with animated gifs in Premiere Pro

    Hi everyone,
    I need some help with my video project - I made some animated gifs that I want to add to the end credits. Importing them etc. works just fine, but in the video, the images always show up with a white background (white "box" around the animted figure), although the gifs definitely have a transparent background to start with. If I import them e.g. as png stills, they are transparent.
    Am I doing something wrong? Or is that a Premiere thing&do I have to re-create the animations inside Premiere?
    I couldn't find anything on this in the forum and I am grateful for any help/suggestions!
    Thanks&have a great weekend!

  • I'm having problem with exporting video from premiere pro cc 2014

    I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 and I'm having problem with exporting video.
    When I click Export and media, the window for exporting appears and it starts exporting video.
    But after a few minutes, it looks like it has completed exporting video and says there's a bug in exporting.
    It literally says it has a problem with compiling, but I don't know what the real problem is.
    I tried many things like restarting computer and Premire Pro but it's no use.
    But it works when I use Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 for exporting video.
    If anyone knows any possibilities about why this problem happens, please let me know.

    I'm having a similar issue.  When I go to export my project, I add it to the render queue, set it up with the h.264 settings that I've used with countless past versions of the program, and then hit render.  Randomly, at some point in the process, the render just stops and the ETA just keeps climbing.  I actually had to save an XMF file of the CC 2014 project and bring it into the previous CC version of Premiere just to finish it.  Even a clean re-install of CC 2014 doesn't work.

  • Help with export/import in premiere pro

    Hi Everyone
    I have a question about import and export in Premiere Pro CS5.
    I have some 1920*1080 .mov-files shot with canon eos 500d.
    What is the best import setting for premiere pro cs5?
    What is the best export setting from premiere pro (to adobe encore) to dvd?
    The film is going to be projected on to a big screen. How do I get the best quality for this?
    I would be very very thankful for your help!
    Tami

    check your paused and/or playback resolution settings...
    I've found TIFF to be the cleanest output from PPT for inclusion in video, and I've also found that the scale to frame size command usually works pretty well within Premiere. However, Photoshop's scaler uses much better algorithms and will give you a much better result. You can do a batch process on all your files and automatically create smaller versions of them if you'd like. Alternatively, you can open PPT and customize the size of your PPT slide, which should scale everything to fit your new size. Then you'll have native 720x480 TIFFs on export from PPT.

  • Problem with screen size in Premiere Pro CS5?

    I'm making a movie in Premiere Pro CS5 and I've ran into a problem with the screen size. The source screen shows my footage in widescreen (16:9) but my project screen is playing the widescreen footage in standard size (4:3) so it is cutting off some of the footage from the screen. I would like to make my entire project standard size so how do I do that? (Most of the chopped off footage was adjusted in After Effects so does that have anything to do with it?)
    Thanks for any help you can give!

    The properties of the footage are:
    872 x 486
    00;00;25;00, 29.97 fps
    48000 Hz - 32-bit Float - Stereo
    The properties of the sequence are:
    Editing Mode: DV NTSC
    Timebase: 29.97 frames/second
    Video:
    Frame Size: 720 horizontal 480 vertical 4:3
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: D1/DV NTSC (0.9091)
    Fields: Lower Field First
    Display Format: 30fps Drop-frame Timecode
    Audio:
    Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
    Display Format: Audio Samples
    Video Previews:
    Preview File Format: NTSC DV
    Codec: DV NTSC
    Width: 720
    Height: 480
    I'm also quite a beginner at Premiere Pro and basically all the Adobe programs, so are there any good websites (preferably free) that give good help and information for beginners like me?
    Thanks!

  • Problems with Mac Mini and Premiere Pro CC 2014

    I am new to video editing with a background in graphic design and typically do short corporate videos.
    I am currently using a Mac Mini (late 2012 model), running Mavericks 10.9.5. And I keep having a problem with Premiere Pro CC 2014 freezing in the program monitor, while scrubbing through the timeline.
    Here are my specs:
    Processor: 2.6 GHz Intel Quad Core i7
    Memory: 16 GB
    Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024MB
    I am also using a 2TB Fantom G-Force Megadisk external HD to store all my media. It is connected via a Firewire 800 cable
    I'm wondering if the freezing is caused by Mac Mini having a integrated graphics card vs. a discreet one. Has anyone else had any problems like this using a Mac Mini?

  • Need Help Fast Re: Problems with capturing in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4

    I am working on a project with a deadline.  I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4.  My camera is a Sony Digital Video Recorder DCR-HC26.  My computer is a Dell with OS of Windows Vista.  I have been capturing numerous clips from hundreds of mini digital video cassettes.  Yesterday, I attempted to capture from a Radio Shack Mini DV Metal Evaporated mini DV digital videocassette.  For whatever reason it will not capture.  I have never used one of these tapes before.  Could it be the tape?  After I click on "Capture," the screen shows NO PICTURE of sound, however, it plays on the camera.  It can't be the camera settings because all the other tapes work. . .  Any advice?

  • Capture problem with trial SW (CS4 Premiere Pro / Canon DM-MV1E,OPTURA in USA)

    Hi,
    I have used this camera earlier with older premiere 6.5 with Canopus DVRaptor-RT firewire. Those files I can not use with CS4 Premiere because Canopus is using their own codec?
    Now I try with CS4 Premiere Pro with motherboard firewire (Asus P5AD2-E Premium).
    Timeline is running in capture window during capture but there is no video and no audio (and no file....). During capture "Capture duration" is 0. When I stop capture there is text "Recorder captures no frames".
    Device control works ok (atleast Rew, Play, Stop, FF).
    Yes I know my camera is old...... Is it so that this camera don't work anymore with this SW?
    Asko

    I am having a similar issue with trial ver. PPR CS4  but with a Panasonic AG DV2000.
    Where did you find the MV1 setting or was that something to do with your cannon settings?
    I have  the trial ver. loaded on a windows 7 64 box.
    I get message to reset my VTR.
    No video in capture window.
    I currently use the same VTR with Premiere 6 with no issue.
    Any ideas ?

  • Arbitrary data param not importing from Premiere Pro project into After Effects.

    Hi,
    I have an AE SDK plugin effect that works in Premiere Pro and After Effects... the effect has a bunch of standard parameters and one Arbitrary Data parameter.
    I believe that the Arbitrary data parameter is implemented correctly, and I have implemented all of the cases for PF_Cmd_ARBITRARY_CALLBACK...
    PF_Arbitrary_NEW_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_DISPOSE_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_COPY_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_FLAT_SIZE_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_FLAT_SIZE_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_FLATTEN_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_UNFLATTEN_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_INTERP_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_COMPARE_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_PRINT_SIZE_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_PRINT_FUNC
    PF_Arbitrary_SCAN_FUNC
    The only issue I have found, is that when importing a Premiere Pro project into After Effects with the "Import -> Adobe Premiere Pro Project" option, the value in the Arbitrary Data
    parameter is always the default. There is no problem saving or re-opening projects within AE or PP... and there are no problems with cutting and pasting instances of the effect.
    Importing a Premiere Pro project into After Effects using the Dynamic Link works correctly... the Arbitrary data is imported.
    Thanks.

    Some kind of answer would be awesome... there are Adobe staff members on here right?

  • Problems importing AVI with DV codec to Premiere Pro

    Problems importing AVI with DV codec to Premiere Pro  (720x564 px, 32 kHz stereo, 24.4 bitrate)
    I can't import that video. What can I do?

    Svanur,
    I agree with Harm. The specs. do not match up correctly. Where did those AVI files come from?
    I assume that you are working in PAL-land (and not NTSC-land). Is that correct?
    What platform are you working on, Mac, or PC?
    When you attempt to Import those AVI files, what is the exact error message that you are getting?

  • Serious problem with FCP import

    Hi
    I wonder if anyone is having the same problem with Final Cut Pro importing into Premiere Pro CS4 - basically it all looks fantastic until, on any sequences with audio fades or anything more complex than just clips having been dropped onto the timeline in a straightforward manner, you try and drag anything or copy and paste it elsewhere: "serious error" pops up in a dialogue referring to a .cpp library (or something) and crashes the whole program.
    Having now installed CS4 Production Premium on a desktop and laptop (both with different OS - XP and Vista) and both coming up with the same problem at pretty much the same point in the import/editing process, it seems that the FCP import is seriously flawed. Really disappointing.
    Is anyone else having this issue? What can I do about it? The errors mean nothing, it is so difficult to know where to begin to start to try and fix the problem or find a workaround.
    Thanks,
    Andy Campbell
    www.onetooneproductions.com

    Thanks for replying. The clips are in Quicktime format. Basically I am taking over an edit that was started in FCP on the Mac and trying to finish it in Premiere Pro CS4. However any even slightly complex timelines crash when you try and drag or select certain clips. I can't find any one common aspect of a clip or series of clips that makes it crash otherwise it might make some sense.
    Josh Townsend's advice on the forum about exporting as AAF however has really helped me - I have taken the sequences back into CS3 and they work perfectly, no problems, although a little slow. Shame it has to come to that though; working in CS3 again rather than CS4 when I've just upgraded.
    Playing or rendering the sequences from FCP in CS4 actually works. Even scrubbing works. But selecting or trying to drag just causes a serious error that flushes the whole program down the toilet.
    Thanks,
    Andy
