Time line monitor window video size

I don't know what I have done, But I am working on Christmas videos and had made one video and it was all right. I then started a new one and in the work space monitor window everything looks way to big and I only see part of the video that I am previewing. I have found by searching that I can move the window off to one side and grab the bars and resize it down to the right size. But a soon as I grab another video I have to do it again. Like I said I have done some thing and don't know what I did. I have been searching and trying things for about 3 hours now and it is time for a rest. I have been using abobe premier for many years and I have never encountered this before.
Thanks

Be sure that your sequence settings match your footage.

Measure milliseconds in time line - arrange window?

Hi folks,
When I draw a locater selection in the time line, Logic can tell me how long that range is. But only on beats or seconds+frames.
I would need to know the length in milliseconds for accurate delay adjustment - You guess I need to phase align some tracks. How can I measure exactly?

Select both a reference- and a delayed-region
Place a cut on a transient of the reference region
Now open the dealyed region in the sample editor
Select the range between region start and the transient
There's your delay in samples
You will have to delay all your reference tracks by this amount, so all tracks will be late. Is that really what you wanted ?

No audio in source monitor but it works on the time line

Hi
I just started to use a Canon XF300 and I have noticed that when I double click on a file and it opens in the source monitor the video plays but I get no audio. If I drop that same clip onto the time line I get video and audio.
Is there a setting I am missing?
Thanks
Dennis

Hi
Yes both Channel 1 and 2.
Also I just came across another funny thing. After opening the first clip in the source monitor I can not open any other clips unless I open them from the time line. Double click a clip in the time line so it opens in the source monitor and then THE SOUND WORKS! Weird.

Video Time line

Is there another way to view the time line of your video besides in the project box. I've used windows movie maker and it allows you to view it in a story board format (like in iMovie) but also in an actual time line of events of your video. I like to synchronize the pictures and movies to the music and I can seem to find a way of doing it. Thanks.

One of iMovie ’08’s major departures is the lack of a timeline. In all previous versions of the software—not to mention in Final Cut Express, Final Cut Pro, Avid Xpress, and nearly every other video editor out there—video tracks appear on a single horizontal timeline, with separate audio tracks below the video.
iMovie 06 is True "timeline based", iMovie 08 is "clip based" (each clip is like its own mini-timeline).
iMovie 06 is a free download to iLife 08 owners. (THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!)

iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 is a terrific combination.

How do I get the full size of my pics or video into the time line?

Greetings,
I've nener been part of a forum before and an wondering if this will actually be taken seriously. I'm new to video editing and know little about the program I am using (Adobe Premiere Pro CC). Would someone please advise me as to how I can add the full size video or pics to the time line. It appears whenever I add something from my Gopro 3 HD camera I only get a partial of the video / pic.

Can't resize video in Sequence monitor window anymore ???

OK Help... I have been working on a project in CS4 and the project settings are HD 1080. I have been able to bring in other SD clips and simply "click" on the video in the monitor window and a box comes up around the video and I can resize it and then render and it looks acceptable. This works if I want to shrink it and have a black border also. Now the ability to do this is GONE ! Same computer - same everything. I click and there is no box or ability to re-size. Only thing I ever did was load up another project at one time in standard DV - NTSC and encoded with Encore. Whats Wrong

Glad that you found it. You can also do the same thing with the Bounding Box, if you open the Effects Control Panel, and then click on the name Motion in the Effects list there, and you'll get a Bounding Box in the Program Panel. Personally, I like the numerical method, but some like the Bounding Box.
Good luck,

Importing video from Canon DSLR into time line in Premiere elements 10

When I import video from the media files in premiere elements 10 on to the Time line,I get a message saying that the video is not a suitable format and do I want to change it to a suitable format or leave it as it is.If I go to change it then the video does not display on the editing monitor. How do I get round this?

You're right it should work .... but in practice not always.
You have the latest and greatest mac laptop but your camcorder is frankly a bit dated. So my suggestion is to give it the signal that it wants.
You might want to try this little puppy:

I tried using the Guest Account on my Mac. In the Guest Account, Illustrator works perfect!
Then I started wondering what processes (tools/tweaks) I run by default on my account. Turned out the problem was called by a little background tool called RightZoom. RightZoom let's the green 'zoom' button always maximize your current window.
So thanks! Problem solved!

In elements 10 my video tracks on the time line appear blank

trying to sync the audio and video but the tracks do not show anything. i;'ve had this problem before months ago and i started a new session and the problem was resolved. not this time. i started a whole new session and it did the same thing. i can't see the video tracks in time line...i've messed with the stuff to the left and nothing works. where it says "shows how video will be displayed".... doesn't work. how do i get my tracks back visually?

Please remind me, in your present project, are you ripping VOBs from a DVD-VIDEO format on a DVD disc? If so, how are you doing that? If not, what are the properties of the source media that you are importing into this project?
And, could you also verify the situation so that I am not taking anything for granted....
In spite of the fact that you cannot see your video at the Timeline level, can you still see it in the Edit Mode monitor when you move the mouse cursor from left to right across the Timeline?
If this issue is just confined to the Timeline displays, could you post a screenshot of what you are looking at when this situation exists?
At any time have you tried deleting the Premiere Elements 10 settings file? I had a problem with Premiere Elements 12 yesterday. When I went to preview a disc menu in the Preview of the disc menu area, there was no main menu page displayed in the project. I tried in a new project and got the same. Deleting the Premiere Elements 12 settings file resolved the issue. The settings file deletion continues to be one of the best tools for getting at issues that defy resolution by other means.

At this point, I am not sure if the issue is related to a matter that is not revealing itself in the questions and answers. That is one reason a screenshot might help to pick up on a detail that is being missed.

Problem with Video Time Line in CC

I have encountered a problem with the video time line panel in CC.
When importing a clip, the time line panel remains on top of the video image window.
As before, the image window does not automatically resize to float above the time line panel.
I cannot resize the clip image panel to make more room for the time line.
I have tried to reset Photo Shop to the original state without success.

Are you using a docked workspace? What zoom? Is hardware acceleration working properly? What system? What footage? Screenshots? Much more info is required...

Editing in time line alters video output quality.

This is weird. If I import a basic AVI (raw 1280x768 ) in to a project with the same settings and drop that into the time line, then just export (no editing) some frames or whole sequence (to any file type/codec at the same size and settings) the resulting file is clear as a bell, looks great. But, if I do ~any~ cutting at all the resulting file looks like crap (again with the same export settings as before). I also noticed that in the program window the same thing happens, if the file hasnt been chopped up the view is crystal clear, along with any renders, as soon as I cut it (lets say I remove the first 5 seconds of the clip in the timeline with the "cut" tool) the Program window gets messed up (image gets blurry) and all the resulting renders are also poor. What Am I doing wrong???? Please help.

Yes, Xvid and DivX, are both very heavily compressed CODEC's, and are most often seen in the AVI wrapper.
With either, conversion is the best route, if you have to edit the "delivery-only" material. Please note: file conversion will not regain all the data, lost in compression - only get the file into an editable form.
Good luck,

When I drag the imported video files to the time-line it only recognizes audio - would anyone know why?

This happened 2 days ago. Before everything was working normal. Since yesterday each time I import a video and drag it to the time line, it only allows me the drag the audio portion of the file. Even those files which I uploaded several days earlier and
worked perfectly fine - now even those files are only showing audio when dragged to the timeline. I hope I didn't make my question too confusing.
I have adobe premier PRO CC 2014 and I bought it vie creative cloud.
Would anyone know why is this happening all of the sudden?

Multiple use of the same video time line for different audio tracks

I have a 90 minute video timeline
I will be putting different audio tracks in multiple languages.
But as i was just editing i wondered if i could use only a segment (30 minutes ) of the timeline
along with a 30 minute audio.
Example:
So the first thing on the menu will be the whole 90 minute video
with a 90 minute music track
Second thing might be the 90 minute video with a 90 minute commentary
Third thing might be the first 30 minutes of video with a different commentary
Forth thing on the menu might be the first 30 minutes of video and 30 minutes of
a different language
Etc.
I realize i will need to make space (mb) for all the audio.....but if i could use the same video or pieces of it
that would be fantastic.
If i can do this i am presuming i should use playlists and chapter playlists to get it done?
I have never done this before and would love some feedback on an over view or tips
that might save me some guess work
Thanks for any help :-)

Hey Stan!
Thanks for your help...i think i am really getting this. And have learned a lot.
I had to go back to my computer programming and flowcharting skills to figure out the flow :-)
And i still have 153mb to spare when i build it.
I ended up lining up all the different videos and audios exactly for each time line except for 1 timeline.
Question: I know if the audio is shorter it will be ok.... but if the audio is longer than the video on a timeline ( and its the audio i assigned it by specify link )
Will the DVD keep playing until the audio is done or end when the video is done playing?
2nd Question: I am previewing the playlists with the "Preview from Here" feature
I specify the link and chapter within that timeline ( it is the only timeline with more than one chaper....the one with the longer audio than video from the question above )
For most of the audios i only need video chapter 1.....the preview here plays it ok but if i hit the skip to next (in the preview button on theright of the play button)...it goes to the next chapter #2... instead of the next timeline chapter 1 like it is programed to do from the playlist.
I am wondering if this is just fluke in the preview feature...or will it do that on the actual DVD as well?
Lastly because i am using different timelines. I am wondering if there are delays between playlists? for example...i have a long audio that continues between three timelines...i have spliced it pretty fine so it picks up perfectly on the next timeline...but i am wondering if the DVD when playing in realtime will have a little black space inbetween timelines.
Thanks again for your help and time :-)

Hiya Mark.
DVD-Video is video dominant, with the audio always following the visuals so if the audio ends berfore the video it will not (okay, should not) be a problem.
However, the other way around could go either way - if the actual video timeline has ended the audio may well truncate so I would personally add videoblack at the very least.
I am also not at all sure how you are going to work a single contiguous audio file across 3 separate playlists. This sounds flawed in concept to me (have I misunderstood your meaning?). In DVD-Video the format is graphically/visually dominant - the audio must always be tied to a visual asset be it a menu or a timeline - so there is no way to have one piece of audio playing across 3 timelines and having it play back glitch free whilst the timeline changes. You will not get a black space - it will simply stop. So unless I have misunderstood you in some way.........
As Stan says, preview is flaky - the only way to know for sure is to multiplex & burn.

You need to help us first ...
Computer specs:
OS, CPU, RAM, GPU, vRAM ... and also disc layout & connections can be useful (as in, "2 internal hard-drives and an external on Thunderbolt connection for exports")
Program specs:
Specific build of Premier Pro from the bottom of the "About" splash screen off the "Help" menu is best.
Footage file type: MXF, AVCHD, MOV, m2s, what?
Even the camera it was shot on can be of interest at times.
And did you use media browser to import, then project panel to drag & drop?
