Removing head switch noise from VHS video

Hi experts,
I have imported a video from a vhs videorecorder - and now I want to remove the head switch noise by shifting the entire video 8 lines down and insert 8 lines black at the top and bottom.
How do I do this with Premiere Elements 11?
Thanks a lot for your help!

I think that the scale up ever so little (with Constrain Proportions Off) would have been the best, but if your image has problems with that (and as Hunt says can live with black bars), then
Approach 1 - On Screen Image Moved Down
The just moving the screen image down far enough to hide the switch head noise at the bottom of the frame. To do that:
a. Click on the image on screen, and use the mouse cursor to drag the image downward far enough to hide the switch head noise bar.
or
b. Highlight/select the Timeline clip, go to Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded, and increase the second value for Position to move the image downward on the screen.
The black at the top of the image that you generate in this process is not the color black but rather the program using black to represent transparency.
Before Position second value = 238.8 in this example
After Position second value = 250.8 in this example
Approach 2 - Cropping out Noise
Go to xf Effects/Transform/Crop and drag the Crop Effect into the video on the Expert workspace Timeline. Then adjust the Left, Top, Right sliders so that the image is not cropped at any of those edges. Move the Bottom slider from 0 upward to replace the switch head noise with transparency/black border at bottom.
Please review and then let us know the outcome.
Any questions or if clarification needed, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Removing microphone crackle noise from a video

Hi there,
Please could anyone offer some advice on how to remove a "crackly" noise from my video? The "crackle" appears to have come from the microphone that was clipped to a shirt, and as the speaker moved, the microphone picked up and recorded the scraping noise!
I have had a go with the audio effects in Premiere Elements, but haven't had any luck removing the noise, unless the sound gets distorted. I am new to Premiere Elements but have a gut feeling that I will probably need to re-record the speaker again. I thought I would ask the question, just in case there was some method I haven't found / understand yet.
Thank you

From within PrE, I think that you have gotten good advice. The ability to remove transients from Audio is a bit limited in a video-editor, and can take a lot of experimenting.
There is something a bit better, but requires additional programs to accomplish. Even then, experimenting and critical listening will be needed. The first is an inexpensive, but great audio program, Magix Audio Cleaning Lab. With just the default settings, it does an amazingly good job with such things, though might never be perfect. I then use Adobe Audition, which has a Transient Repair Tool, and must be applied by hand, for each Transient that remains. It is NOT inexpensive, but so very powerful. This ARTICLE will give you a bit more info, plus a link to the Magix program.
Also, I would check out what is inducing the crackle into the audio stream. Usually, this is because of a bad connection in the chain. Fixing things there, is the best course, for the future.
Good luck,
Hunt

How do I remove the Trial Watermark from my video in premier after I have purchased the full version

How do I remove the Trial Watermark from my video in premier after I have purchased the full version

HaywoodBrandon
Please excuse if you know this already....
If you have the tryout version of Premiere Elements (any version) and you export with the Adobe watermark, you cannot remove the Adobe watermark from that export, even after purchase of the program.
As you found out, you can remove the Adobe watermark from the tryout project file (project.prel) after purchase. The classic way (as you have indicated worked for you) is the deletion of the project.prel's rendered files (preview files) in the purchased program. Some, like myself, have found removal of the watermark placed in the project.prel of the tryout could be achieved just importing the project.prel with its watermark into the purchased version (no rendered file deletion by the user).
Nonetheless, glad to learn that you are moving forward in your Premiere Elements projects. Wishing you many great projects.

How to remove Header and Footer from Flat File

Hi,
In a scenario , we are going to recieve a flat file which will contains header , footer and data. We have to have to load data in Oracle tables and remove header and footer.
once the data load is complete , we have to delete flat file from source directory.
Please help me in solving this issue.
Thanks,
Kamlesh

You have a header parameter in the file datastore. You can provide any number to skip rows from top of the file. For footer you can create a filter in staging area.
Filter coould be something like this.
where source_alias.source_column not like '%FOOTER_OR_ANY_VALUE_AS_PER_YOUR_REQ'

Remove header and footer from blank left-hand pages

Are there any scripts to automatically remove header and footer on a blank left-hand page for an InDesign CS3 document? I have a book with many chapters and it would be more efficient than removing them by hand.

It's a one liner from a much longer script that does quite something else -- this is merely a side effect, a quick way to get a page range (i.e., I need the range "251-256" to appear on my first page, excluding an optional blank last one) [*].
Perhaps I could write a full script, but for that I need a bit more information. Is your document an InDesign Book, with each chapter in a separate document? If so, any empty frame on a last leftmost page can safely be deleted. If your book is in a *single* InDesign document, this line can only be used if a left hand page has *no objects at all* -- not even an empty frame. That's the easy case -- in English "if there are no objects on the page, apply the "[None]" master. If there *is* a frame, however, it cannot be removed right away, even if it seems empty. That's because in that case you probably have inserted a page break somewhere on the previous page, and if the frame is deleted, tht page break will push off the text on the *next* page (the right hand). It also depends on what kind of page break -- as a character or as a paragraph Keep Option; Next Page, Next Frame, Next Odd Page, Next Column. Way too complicated to script right off the bat.
All in all, applying that empty master maually is much easier :-)
[*] Sure, I know how to use the Next Page Number trick. However, I also need the range in my XML output, and the Page Number markers do not play nice when written out in ASCII.

Remove Header and footer from Word Docs

Is it possible to remove the header/footer from Word docs?
The html output from ctx_doc.markup gets the header/footer and (specialy)page numbers all messed up.

Please define 'messed up'. I'll reproduce here and then try to find a cause/solution. I checked a couple of other forums and Metalink with no good discussion on the topic.

Removing the black border from exported videos

Ok, basically I'm trying to rip DVD footage and convert it to something playable on an iPod. Nothing too hard getting it ripped and converted and all, but the VOB files didn't break right on the episodes, and I also wanted to edit out the theme from the beginning of EACH episode in the interest of space.
Overall it's working pretty well so far, I've been able to perform all that I needed to do, but when I export I get a wide black border around the video which looks fine now, but will take up a lot of valuable space when reduced to iPod resolution. I've found ways to change the color of the border in FinalCut, but no real way to remove it. Anyone have a way of dealing with this?

Ok, figured out what to do.
If you go to the canvas, hit the box for the borders, tell it to show the wire frame. Click and you can rotate, resize, etc.

Removing a dust spec from a video

so i made a time lapse froma bunch of stills with quicktime pro and there is a sensor spot in the fram
the composition never changes in the clip.
is there a way i can clone stamp out the dust spot in the video without having to do it frame by frame?

Camera RAW should apply a spot heal to a batch of photos. This is almost certainly the long way to do this. The help file I'm posting doesn't quite mention the batch features, and I'll admit I've never tried this (though I need to with my horrible lens-cleaning habits), but it's supposed to work in ACR for CS3 (according to Real World ACR).

Remove Noise from Video Breaks Sync

I recently removed some audio noise from a video and the audio lost the sync with the video. Any ideas on what might cause this, and how to avoid it?
I have 8 files I need to clean up, and obviously not breaking them would be best.
Thanks!

Hi Wes,
Can you describe what happens a bit more? Is the audio late or early? By how much? Does it get worse over time? Does it appear out of sync within Soundbooth or only after you export it?
Thanks,
Durin

Removing background "noise" from an interview recording

Hello!
I was wondering if it was possible on Soundtrack Pro to remove continuous background "noise" from a recorded interview? An example would be someone clicking a pen or a tapping his foot during the duration of the interview. Any advice would be extremely helpful.
Thanks so much!
Ted

It can, but what you are describing are not continuous, but points of sound. Continuous refers more to hums and vibrations, things like air conditioner noise or the sound of traffic. That said you can still give it a try. You can also try running the click and pop filter and see what you get.
Regarding these point sources I have better luck removing them with Adobe's Soundbooth. Their cascading frequency display allows you to draw irregular shapes around sounds like these and then extract them without disturbing the other sounds around them.
Take a look at the manual.
Good luck

Removing Wind Noise from Audio in FCP

Is there a way to remove/filter wind noise from audio for use in FCP?

I'm not sure if you're if your sarcasm is targeted at me or Apple but just to clarify:
By rolling off the bottom end prior to using a Noise Print style NR technique you'll get a far better end result than just asking something like SoundSoap to decipher everything.
Wind noise is dynamic. NR tools like SoundSoap and other basic noise tools do not adequately address it. Since much of the problem with wind is in the very low frequency range simply rolling that stuff off cleans up the signal significantly and sometimes is all you need. Adding noise print style NR after the LF has been eliminated will produce a much better result.
Another technique for changing the perceived amount of interference from a dynamic source like wind is to copy a chunk of relatively clean ambient tone and pasting it over areas where there is noise but no dialogue. This step will obviously not help of a strong wind gust happens over the voice but it does improve the overall perceived quality of the recording. I usually don't offer this suggestion right off the bat because it's more of a surgical procedure which takes a bit of skill. What most people are looking to do is just clicking on the "remove noise" button.

Removing green screen from a video sequence in PS

How can I remove the green screen from a video sequence in Photoshop?

There's a bunch of tutorials for editing video with Photoshop on Adobe TV
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/photoshop-for-video/chroma-keying-backdrops/
I am not sure if the above link is going to help you though. Is this footage you shot yourself? If so what sort of camera, and how was the BG lit? I ask as chroma keying can be tricky to get right, and I understand that DSLR footage is far from ideal for chroma key for instance. I use a Canon XF300 which records with a 50mb/s 4:2:2 codec, which works well for chroma key.
