QTFC Issues with Premiere Pro CS4?

Hello there.
So recently, I have been having issues with my adobe programs. I have the Master Collection CS4 and when I launch programs like After Effects, it tells me the following.
"QuickTime functions will be disabled because a compatible version of QuickTime could not be found"
and here's my real issue. When I go to launch Premiere Pro CS4, I get the following error.
"Adobe Premiere Pro.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic library link QTCF.dll"
I click OK and it pops up again, then premiere launches. How do I get rid of this error? I have tried reinstalling Master Collection and Quicktime but that didn't help.
I cannot afford to reformat computer as I'm very busy and need my programs to work.
Thankyou for your time and support.
-Matthew.

To answer your question. I had the same problem that you had. I was using Quicktime 7. So I downgraded by downloading Quicktime 6.4
Here's a link:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120297
So I installed QT 6.4, and the error message is no longer there. But there is another issue, I try to import or find a file that is a .mov and it says File format not supported. Which is weird because you get that if you don't have quicktime installed. That may be an entirely different problem. But hope this at least helps you answer your question.

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,
Hunt

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.
2011 MacBook Pro
i7 2.2
16GB Ram
256 SSD + 750GB HD
AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1GB

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:

I have 64 bit windows 7 and CS4 Production Premium. I have a problem with Premiere Pro CS4, it keeps freezing and Crashing. A simple thing like leaving the project idle for about 15 minutes, you come back and find that it has frozen. Also if you drag out a clip on the timeline you will find that the whole application freezes. Any possible solutions would be much appreciated.

Could be several factors at play here. This ARTICLE might give you some tips on getting your computer ready for an editing session. Note that there are some added tips on Win7, thanks to Black Viper, near the end.

What's a good HD camera to use with Premiere Pro CS4

I've used Premiere Pro CS4 for a while now and most of the time I don't have any problems, but recently, I've been buying HD cameras, shooting some AVCHD and then having a hell of a time getting them to play nice with Premiere Pro (or WMindows Media Player... or Quicktime... or anything but their crappy bundled software that won't let me edit or anything). My girlfriend says I should give up and buy a Mac and use FCP, but I like Premiere Pro. I'm about to take another camera back to Best Buy and I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion for the easiest camera to use with Premiere Pro.
In case you're wondering, I've bought a Canon Vixia HF10 and a Samsung HMX-H100 so far and both had every issue I can think of from codec incompatibility to aspect ratios changing to A/V sync being lost to all-out-I-don't-know-WTF-just-happend-errors. I just want a camera that's going to give me a file I can drop straight into Premiere.

Unless you want a new computer, forget about AVCHD. It requires too much muscle to edit comfortably on anything but the fastest computer.
What camera is nice, depends on your budget. Formats that are easy to edit are HDV, DVCProHD (P2) and XDCAM. In the consumer range you could look at the Canon HV40 or XH-A1s, in the prosumer range look at the Panasonic AG-HPX170, Canon XH-H1s, JVC GY-ND250 or Sony HVR Z5 or Z7 and all Sony XDCAM cameras, especially the EX1 and EX3. In the professional range look at the Sony PDW-F355 or upward.

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.

Using new Adove Media Encoder with Premiere pro cs4

I have Premiere Pro Cs4 and Design&Web premium CS6 - which comes with Adobe Media Encoder cs6. Can I get Premiere Pro CS4 to use the new encoder (and hopefully speed up)?

I am on Window 7 32-bit that Premiere CS6 does not work. So I use CS4 for editing. For one specific project, I kept getting errors when using AME CS4 and it was extremely slow (8min of video estimated 20 hours). Someone said CS4 4.2 is really slow so I'd like to use AME CS6 to render project files from CS4. Tried that but got adobe dynamic link components error. I think it may be because I didn't include Premiere and After Effects when installing CS6.
Do you have success using AME CS6 on CS4 project file? Is it likely to make it work without installing CS6 one more time?
Thanks,

Laptop editing with Premiere Pro CS4: what are the most important specs

Laptop Editing: What are the MOST important specs?
Hello everybody, I have been a long time lurker, but I decided to join in and share my voice.
I've been editing, for a while now, various projects of various lenghts shot on my HV20, on an IMac using Adobe Premiere Pro. Actually, I bought the CS4 Extended Production Suite last year thinking that it made sense to be able to edit, do the coloring and effects+ sound all within the same suite.
AND, it came with OnLocation, wich is, I think, a fantastic tool. I really want to be able to record and monitor my future shoots using OnLocation. I've seen how useful monitors and scopes are on set, and the idea of being able to shoot in HD and actually checking the focus on something larger than a few inches is very appealling!
So a laptop is in my future. Now, what are the most important specs?
I could buy 1) a barely used Macbook pro early 08- 17" HD led display ,4g Ram ddr2 ,nvidia 8600M GT 512 VRAM ,800Mhz BUS, 200G 7200HD
and have enough money left to buy an Apple Display 30" refurb
OR 2) a new Macbook pro 17, 4 g Ram ddr3, 512 VRAm, 4g Ram ddr3, double procsessors 9400M+9600M GT 512 VRAM, 1066 BUS, 500G 7200HD
and wait for a second display!
Plus, of course, a portable External Scratch Drive on the Express Card. Now, if that fast drive is handling the footage, could'nt I settle for a 5400HD in the laptop,, they seem much less prone to problems-clicking noise, heat-than the 7200, especially in the new unibody model. Is 800 versus 1066 BUS a terrible trade-off? In terms of secondary displays , I've heard less than lukewarm things about the new Apple 24 LED (glossy is no-no for me).
My intentions are to make documentaries and short fictions as well. I make a living as an actor so I don't need to be performing as a director/editor business wise!
I do want to explore that side of the craft, in a professional and enjoyable way though. I know that, in addition to the laptop, I will get a MacPro in a few years.
Thanks a lot for the inputs!

Successful video editing (as compared to tear your hair out video editing) requires at least two hard drives... one for all software and one for all data... some people use 3 drives, with data on one and scratch files on the 3rd drive
I'm not sure about software, but everything I've ever read in this forum says 5400 is NOT fast enough for the data drive
If you want to edit video... you have to buy the hardware that works

Massive Lagging and issues with Premiere Pro CC 2014

For the last year we have been in post on our feature documentary. We have roughly 15TB of footage that is all stored on a raid coming into our edit suite via fibre (I don't know much of the technical information about it other than it's trustworthy and works for the other suites in our facility). We're in the final stretch and locking edit February 1. But the issues we're experiencing are making it very difficult to advance and fine tune the edit.
Over the last month or two performance with Premiere has been getting worse and worse. We are experience lag in actions when editing. It could be as simple as moving the mouse, clicking or copy/paste which can result in freezing or lag where we have to wait a few seconds or minutes for the program to catch up with itself.
We've been trying to figure out what is going on and if we can do anything to eliminate these issues. We have removed all cache files. We have eliminated any unnecessary or old sequences from our project file.
I will note that our project file is massive. It's currently about 1.15gb in size. Our sequence is a little hairy also. Not sure if this could be causing issues, but it hasn't in the past. See image below.

Unfortunately, the only real workaround is to export to a format other than h.264. If that's not an option for you, then your best bet is probably to keep working in CC7.2.2 until the patch is released.
Sorry, but thats not completely true and by far not the correct answer:
The problems with random artifacts occurred with the introduction of a new version of H264 in CS6 but there you still had the option to export with the previous H264 Version via Media Encoder.
Since the previous H264 version is not available in CC, using CC7.2.2 is not a solution either.
BTW
Updating to CC and using the new Mac Pros with Mavericks is currently a total mess - no open cl rendering, random crashes, no usable h264 ... thanks adobe!!
... but we can track masks in premiere now ... wow!

Any issues with Premiere Pro CC and Avid Media Composer on same system?

Hi all:
Searched around for this but couldn't find similar question.
Am a long time Premiere Pro user, but have something coming up where I'm having to use Avid MC to collaborate with a staff editor for the duration of the job. Am wondering if I should expect any conflicts or issues to installing both Premiere Pro CC and Media Composer on the same system? Any insight would be most welcome.
Running Adobe CC on a Windows 7 HP Z820, Dual Xeon Processors, 128Gb RAM.
Thanks!

hi Jim,
well it turns out that Premiere update 7.2.2. put my computer into disarray, and caused my multi-camera monitor to lag (about 6 seconds) behind my program monitor .. so my my multi-cam monitor (with my 2 or 3 camera feeds) would be playing footage that is 6 seconds or so BEHIND what was playing on the program monitor.
that's the gist of it..
anyway the fine folks at Adobe, talked me through the process of going back to premiere 7.2.0 and that fixed the issue.
i hope future updates resolve this issue so that i can get back up to the minute on my software
thanks

H.264 encoding issues with Premiere Pro CC 2014

After updating to Premiere Pro CC 2014 yesterday, I see encoding artifacts on my H.264 exports.
Same source video imported into CC v2014 and v7, and exported using the YouTube 1080p 29.97 fps settings. The artifacts manifests itself as softness/blurriness in parts of the image every few seconds, especially notice the area with a red circle below.
Here are the source file (GoPro HERO3 Black Edition), the v2014 render and the v7 render.

New NVIDIA Driver issue with Premiere pro

Laptop
Windows 7 pro x64
Intel Core i7 2.7ghz
16 gig ram
NVIDIA GTX675MX driver version 314.07 2013.2.18
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.

MXF issues with Premiere Pro CS6

Hello,
I am having trouble using Canon XF300 MXF files in Premiere Pro CS6 v6.0.2. I am using the media browser (tried icon and list view) to import footage (first importing to internal HD via the Canon XF Utility). I can import and play audio and video for all files under 2.05 GB but PPro limits any file longer than 30 seconds to 30 seconds.
Alos, Canon cameras cut files over 2.05 GB into separate MXFs. Most of my footage are interviews over 10 minutes long so I have 3 or 4 separate MXF spanned files for each clip. Premiere is having most trouble handling these files. First of all it limits them to 30 seconds each. Then, when I import them and drag them into a sequence it will only play audio from the first spanned file, even if video from the second sapnned file is playing.
I have tried merging all spanned files using Canon XF Utility's 'Export to MXF' function. As a result I have one 10 minute long MXF file but when I import it to PPro it still limits it to 30 seconds.
I made the change to PPro because of the ability to edit various formats in a single senqunce without tanscoding. I recently purchased a Sony FS700 and FCP7 couldn't really handle the MTS (or clipwrapped movs). Premiere handles them perfectly but can't handle the MXFs. So currently I am finding myself going into FCP7, logging and transfering the MXFs and transcoding them to .movs using the Canon XF plugin for FCP7 and then importing those to Premiere (they work fine this way)...but of course its a hassle to do with hundreds of clips per shoot.
I also noted that VLC 2.0.x versions can't handle the MXFs so well (video plays fine, audio at double the speed) but VLC version 1.0.3 handles them ok as long as I dont forward the video.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Computer specs: Mac Pro 2.66GHz 12 core, 16 GB RAM running latest Snow Leopard update.
Clips shot at: 29.97 fps, 50 Mpbs, HD 1920x1080.

(first importing to internal HD via the Canon XF Utility)
Try skipping any special software and just use Windows Explorer (or Finder).
