Scratch Disk Video Audio Previews always auto-select "Same as Project" folder (CC 2014.0.1)

My scratch disks previews folders select as "Same as Project" even though I selected another folder and saved before. Old and new projects. Help.

This is a known issue that is resolved in the forthcoming update.
A colleague reported in other threads on this issue that "if you set the customized location when first creating the project, the custom path should be remembered."

How do I prevent Premiere from placing the scratch disk onto the 'same as project" folder

I start a project by resetting the default scratch disc settings from “same as project” (which is on my “G” drive) to another hard drive where I have always stored defaults on CS3 (the “D” drive). I never had to redo my scratch disks when I created a new project in CS3. Now I need to redo them every time. If I open an older project in CS5 it automatically places all scratch disk files onto the G drive. How do I prevent Premiere from placing all scratch disk information onto the G drive before I open an older file? By the time I get around to changing the location, Premiere has already begun saving scratch disk information on the wrong disk.
However I have another related problem. When I import an older project to nest it in a new project, the scratch discs mysteriously change back from the D drive where I set it up to the “G” drive. I finally discovered this when I reopen the project and all previews disappeared and it had defaulted back to the G drive.

Thanks. Now I know that anytime I import a CS3 project file into a CS5 project, that it will change the whole project scratch disk settings to the default without warning.
One wouldn’t think that just one imported file would change the whole overall project file (out of many imported files…not project files that do not); it is odd that Premiere changes the setting of the new overall Cs5 project without warning.

Auto selection of file from folder during uploading??

Hi all friends,
Iam facing with one problem I am developing one uploading software for that i have used swing and servlet.Now my problem is i want to give auto selection of file from one folder means user just copy the files from any computer on network and paste it in predefind folder.And when they click on upload button it should start uploading of file one by one and after completion of uploading it move that file into another folder one by one.Now my software doing it perfectly but if user copy and paste any file in that predifined folder from network computer during uploading then they have to click upload button again after completion of first queue of files(for example if user first copy 10 files and start uploading and inbetween uploading of that 10 files if user copy another 10 files from network computer then they have to click on upload button again after completion of uploading of first 10 files).But my user requirement is they want to click on upload button once only at the time of starting my application and my application automatically select the file one by one from folder and send it to destination.Means if they copy the file from network machine inbetween uploading or any other user from network send file in that folder then my application should select those file automatically and start uploading means they don't want to click on upload button again.Can any one plz guide how I can slove this problem.Below r my codes:-
Upload.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
try {
suspendflag=true;
Resume.setEnabled(false);
Suspend.setEnabled(false);
dest=frame.m_txtURL.getText();
File ff=new File("d:\\DTMS\\Upload");
File[] files = ff.listFiles();
fileList = new Vector();
if(files == null)
textArea.append("There is no file");
return;
else
for (int j = 0 ; j< files.length ; j++)
fileList.add(files[j]);
java.util.Collections.sort(fileList, new FileComp());//sorting by size
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run(){
for (int k = 0; k < fileList.size(); k++)//loop for queue {
File fname = (File)fileList.get(k);
String str=fname.getName();
log("Destination:" +" "+ dest);
log("Uploading Progress\nPlease Wait....");
result=doPost(fname,dest);//method for read file & send to servlet
String str2="Transfer apparently failed.";
String str3=result;
if(str2.equals(str3)){
Error(result);
else if(suspendflag==true){
File newfile =new File("d:\\DTMS\\Archives\\"+str);
fname.renameTo(newfile);
log("File" +" "+ str+" "+"Upload Completed !");
else if(suspendflag==false){
Error("** Transfer Suspended**");
}).start();
}catch(Exception exp)
Error("Error : " + exp.toString());

Lync crashes on Video Call/Preview when I select MS VX-5000 Camera

Symptom: In Lync Settings I change the video device from the integrated webcam to the VX-5000. Preview looks good in the tools window. Then if I save it to use the VX-5000, and try to make any video call, Lync will instantly
crash. The integrated webcam works great.
I've made sure the drivers for the web cam show up and are working correctly in Device Manager. Any help/clues/workarounds would be great.

Why is the video audio white noise when I share my project since I updated to 10.0.9

On the movies I created before I updated to 10.0.9, the audio prortion of the video is now white noise. The audio is fine when played back in FCP, but when i share the project it is white noise. When I burn it to BluRay the audio is gone all together. Even when I make a master file to my desktop, it still happens. The music I added to my project is fine. It just the audio that is part of the video clips that is affected. I've turned off the EQ's and Compressors I was using and I even tried moving the audio to the center channel instead of mono. No luck. Need some help. I can't figure this out.

I'm encountering the same problem as the original poster. In my case, I'm using FCP 10.1 (running on OS 10.9.1). My source file is DV video imported via FireWire from a DV camcorder. The clip's audio is fine when playing inside of Final Cut Pro 10.1, but when I share the project the audio track is just white noise. My share settings are to Apple 720p devices (the subseqent dialog boxes indicate the software has figured out it's really 640x480 video).
Here's what the QuickTime Inspector says about the source file:
Format:
DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, 720 x 480 (640 x 480)
Linear PCM, 16-bit little-endian signed integer, 48004.6 Hz, Mono
Linear PCM, 16-bit little-endian signed integer, 48004.6 Hz, Mono
FPS: 29.97
Data Size: 5.87 GB
Data Rate: 30.30 Mbit/s
Current Size: 640-480 (actual)
I tried changing from "faster encode" to "better quality", but it made no difference.
The rather dated version of Compressor I have (v3.5.3) was able to encode the clip to H.264 640x480 and the results are fine. However, it took way longer than FCP 10.1 (I think it's too old to be taking advantage of the GPU).

Optimal Scratch Disk Setting for Notebook/Macbook Pro Users

After doing a ton of research, I came across THIS guidline for different scratch disk setups but I am still not sure what would be the best setup for me.
Here is what I am working with for my Current Projects Work Station
2011 i7 Macbook Pro with SSD as my main drive and 750GB 5400rpm HD in the optical bay.
OWC Elite Mini and Dual Mini in Raid0 for Media Storage. Both 7200rpm Drives
Currently I have my scratch disk set to the following:
SSD: Startup drive, OS, Programs, Project Files and Exports
750GB HD: Partitioned - 250GB to Backup SSD and 500GB for Photo storage and PP Scratch Disk Video, Audio and Previews
OWC Minis: Media Storage for Current Projects
My question is, what can I do to optimize my premiere pro settings?
Should I move my scratch disk to my external HD since its a faster drive?

I have a very similar setup but am using a couple pieces of new gear. Wondering if Harm or any of the rest of you have any advice.
2011 i7 Macbook Pro with 500GB SSD as my main drive and 750GB 5400rpm HD in the optical bay. The SSD is a new
Samsung Electronics 840 Pro Series 2.5-Inch 512 SATA_6_0_gb Solid State Drive MZ-7PD512BW
4th-generation 3-Core Samsung MDX Controller ensures sustained performance under the most punishing conditions
Backed by an industry-leading five-year limited warranty
I have various LaCie drives that contain projects, media, exports connected via LaCie Tbolt esata adapter. So these are drives I've had for years that are now running at 3G esata speeds.
I'm not using the 2nd internal drive for anything since it is 5400rpm. I just use it for backups, photo, music storage.
So I ususally work small projects with the projects, media, exports, renders all pointing back to the esata connected external LaCies.
Should I point media cache to the 500GB SSD my internal c drive? The answer to this is still confusing since I've read many conflicting posts in various places.
Any other suggestions for now with this setup? (External Tbolt connected raid not yet in my budget.)

Cannot change scratch disk in premiere 2014

I'm asking this again as my first attempt went into empty space.
Whenever I change the video / audio preview scratch disks, close and then re-open premiere, they return to the original, i.e., "same as project."

Hello,
We're aware of the Scratch Disk issue and are investigating the cause.
Sorry for the inconvenience. The workaround for now is, set the customized location when first creating the project, then custom path should remembered.
Hope this helps,

Any advice for teacher struggling with scratch disk problems?

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone out there has advice for me. I am a Media Teacher with very little technical expertise. We use Premiere Elements 4.0 in my school. This is accessible to students on the school network but is located on a separate drive. I am experienceing a lot of problems at the moment which I suspect may be to do with having multiple users. The students work in groups. Some of them do not seem to be able to access their current coursework - a scratch disk error message comes up and they are asked if they want to locate the scratch disks into their own area of the school network. As personal space is very limited, they always say no, and then cannot access the projects. Other students do not have this problem. The scratch disks are located by default to the same drive as the main work.
A further problem is that in one project, the clips in the second half of the project seem to be 'offline'. I have seen this before and have been able to fix it by locating the clip in the project menu and using 'locate media' to reconnect it. However, this time round, the clip can be seen and runs perfectly in the project menu. It also looks as normal on the timeline. It is only in the viewing window that it comes up as offline. The locate media option isn't available. If I save as an avi, the offline message appears, so the project burns as it appears in the viewing window. If I drag the clips down from the project area and reconstruct, everything plays normally until I close the project down and open it again, when the clips are back offline. I can tell something strange is going on because the project is loading very quickly - it was taking a couple of minutes previously.
Any advice at all would be welcome, as we are near the end of the coursework and the projects we can't access represent a term's work for the students!

You may need to contact Adobe Tech Support for your specific needs.
Is Premiere Elements installed on your network or on the C drives of each computer? The program must be installed on the C drive in order to work properly. You can't run the program from a network installation, and that could explain why you're having the problems you're having.
If you've got Premiere Elements installed on your C drive, you should be able to access your video files if they're stored on the network. But this depends on how your network is set up. It may not be possible for all of your students to access material out on your network drive and remain connected to it the same way every time you open your project.
In other words, you're using the program in ways it's not designed to be used. This is why you may need to contact Tech Suport and see if they can recommend a solution, short of each student having their own complete installation on each computer.

Embeding Video/Audio with a Premiere Pro Project File

Can anyone tell me how you can Embed your video/audio files with a Premeire Pro CS6 project file? Copying all the original footage from your specific project and placing it into a folder with the project file? Thanks alot.
Brandon C.

You can't. The only asset from a PP project that can be embedded into the project file are PP generated titles. Everything else will always be a separate file on the hard drive.
As for copying those separate files to a single location, I personally recommend using the proper tool for the job. File management should always be done using a file manager, like Windows Explorer or Finder.

Airport card won't auto select my AirPort network at boot up

I have two AirPort express routers in the house, configured together (to increase range) on one network, "Aspen". Its the only network I have. When I first set up my Mac several years ago I used the AirPort wizard. After initial config, my Mac would always automatically select the wireless network "Aspen" at every boot up. Over time, I started to see my neighbor's various networks listed too, but, the AirPort card always auto selected and connected to my network.
Somewhere along the way (with various network reconfigs happening to add the second router, reset a password so someone's WIndows machine could use the network, etc..) somehow my config got munged and for the last year or so my AirPort card would not auto connect. I'd have to manually select "Aspen". In the last few months, auto select has begun working again, but, it always, always selects my neighbors network, and I have to manually switch it over to mine.
I've used the Help docs below. I've got it set up exactly as they're saying. "Aspen" is the ONLY network on my AirPort list. When I boot, it says, "I can't find your network. Would you like to connect to "neighbors network"? What can I do to reconfigure this to work correctly?
Thanks so much!
Choosing preferred AirPort networks
By default, AirPort attempts to join the wireless network your computer was most recently connected to.
If you are in an environment with multiple wireless networks, you can set up your computer to join a preferred network when you start your computer, wake it from sleep, or turn AirPort on.
AirPort keeps track of the wireless networks your computer has connected to, and lists them in the Network pane of System Preferences.
To choose a preferred AirPort network using Mac OS X 10.4:
Open Network preferences, choose AirPort from the Show pop-up menu, and click AirPort.
Choose "Preferred networks" from the "By default, join" pop-up menu, and select a network from the list.
You can add wireless networks to the list by clicking the Add button, and clicking on the Network Name pop-up menu. Choose a network and enter a password for the network if necessary. Use the Delete button to remove a network from the list.
To give a network the highest priority, drag the name of the network to the top of the list. This is the network AirPort will attempt to join first.
If you are using Mac OS X 10.3, choose "A specific network" from the "By default, join" pop-up menu, and either type the name of the network in the Network field, or click the Network pop-up menu to display the available networks, choose one and then enter your password for the network.
You can set additional options to control the way your computer joins available networks. Click Options and choose an option from the "If no preferred networks are found" pop-up menu.
If you choose "Ask before joining an open network," you will be prompted when an open network becomes available. If you choose "Automatically join an open network," you will not be promoted, and will automatically join an open network when it becomes available. If you choose "Keep looking for recent networks," AirPort will continue looking for networks you have already joined, and automatically join the network when one is found.

Photoshop cs6 scratch disks/won't open ps.

Okay, so I got the 'scratch disks are full' message when I tried opening new projects. After googling, I read to just change the location to another hard drive instead of the main one, so I went into preferences, unchecked the C drive & checked the E drive. Now photoshop won't let me open it. I get this message:
"Could not open a scratch file because the fil eis locked, you do not have nexassary access permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the 'properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file."
.... how do I do this, exactly?
also any help on clearing/sorting out my scratch disks would be appriciated, too.
Thanks!

What does this quicktime icon mean? Mysterious connection to audio preview in CS3

Can anybody tell me what this quicktime icon means in relation to imported .mov footage?
I'm using AfterEffects CS3, and working to solve an annoying mystery related to audio in RAM previews. I've got a workaround, but would love to get to the root of the matter.
In older projects, audio previews just fine. In recent projects, I can't get audio to work during RAM previews. I can hear scrubbed audio, and audio renders fine from the queue, but can't hear it during RAM previews. I'm working on an animation project. Audio in RAM preview is crucial, dammit! YES, audio is enabled in the preview control preferences...
If I import an older AE project with working audio - PRESTO! Audio preview works fine again. WHY?
I've narrowed things down - the imported project will do the trick even if it contains noting but this (see icon) certain, earlier QT.mov file - which, ironically, has no audio of it's own.
I suspect the issue may be a Quicktime version or update version quirk. Probably solved if I updated my software to CS5, but can't afford that just now. ARGH.
Any ideas? Thank you!

Audio is in AIFF format, and was created in the same time period and format as earlier projects, where it previewed just fine.
Photoshop files do not have the Quicktime icon, my workaround solution does.
I can get RAM audio preview working again - IF I import an additional, older AE project from a time (June 2011) when audio preview was still working as expected. I experimented with those earlier AE projects, deleting various files until I narrowed it down to the following:
As long as the imported project includes a movie file with that goofy quicktime icon, audio RAM preview works. If not, no dice. The movie file in question is a tiny quicktime movie animation generated by AfterEffects (lossless, best settings) in the course of the previous project. It has no audio of its own.
So I have a workaround, but I'm curious. Why doesn't my audio RAM preview work in current projects, and what is it about this little, goofy-icon QT movie file that gets it working again?

TS3623 I rented a movie and can watch preview perfectly with video and audio feed as signal strength is at top when I checked. However, when I purchased rental video is fine , but I get scratched sound for audio. Any thoughts to fix?

I rented a movie and can watch preview perfectly with video and audio feed as signal strength is at highest when I checked. However, when I purchased rental video is fine , but I get scratched sound for audio. Any thoughts to fix? I rented movie within week and it worked. All previews of movies and show also works.

I have a suspicion that the problem is not in the recording device itelf, but rather in the playback-software, which is struggling with an unfamiliar audio format/codec/whatever-it's-called... I opened the file in QuickTime Player 7 (7.6.6) and selected "Show Movie Properties" and it says:
"Video Track: H.264
Sound Track: Integer (Little Endian)"
All current Mac systems support Integer (both Big and Little Endian) audio natively. The fact you can hear anything at all proves that the audio is playing back. The most likely problem would be a malfunction associated with the mic pickup.

When I try to use the internal hard drive as a scratch disk I get this error "unable to set scratch disk- the selected directory is on write protect or non-writable media. Any ideas on how to fix this. It only happens in fcp.

By internal, I assume you're referring to your systems (boot) drive. Is it, by chance, a partitioned dive?
Also…although many people successfully use their systems drives as scratch disks, over time you'll have better results using a dedicated drive for your media.
Good luck.

My video and audio streaming always break-up (or I have delays)

When I watch a video from MSNBC thevideo and audio streaming always delays. Any idea what the problem is or how I can fix it.

Premiere does not work well with variable frame rate video which, I expect, the ipad produces, You might have to convert the footage before you import it into Premiere. Do a forum search for variable frame rate, there are a lot of posts.
