Video cuts out of frame when importing to timeline :( What to do?

Hi there!
So I have my initial video on my timeline and all is well.
However when I try to import another video with the same frame, it looks like it zooms in because it cuts so much of the frame that I can't even see my face anymore . I even tried viewing it in the preview window on the upper left side (which looks fine) until I drag it in the timeline.
Photo 1 : This is the initial video
Photo 2: This is the additional clip that I'm adding that cuts out of frame
Something I should specify as well is, I recorded audio & video separately and merged them through he merge option that Premiere Pro has but that shouldn't be a problem since I did the same thing with my initial video to sync the audio and it did not cut out of frame.
I am still new at premiere pro and when I look up tutorials, no one seems to have that problem. Any help?
Thanks

Video Cuts out After 20 Minutes

With my iPod video coming soon I am preparing movies to put onto my iPod. I convert DVDs into MPEG1s, then MPEG1s into uncompressed AVIs because QT can take audio and video from AVIs. My final uncompressed AVI is perfect, audio and video all the way through. Now, when I convert this AVI to an iPod format movie (320x240), a QT movie (.mov), or a MPEG4 (I have tried all three), it seems to work fine, no errors or anything. Then when I play the result, the audio goes all the way through, but the video cuts out to a white screen after 20 minutes. Is this fixable or do I have to wait for a QT update? By the way, the movie is 90-100 minutes long.

You are converting a DVD (MPEG-2 format) to MPEG-1 format and then to .avi file. This new (now compressed twice) file is compressed again (conversion to .mov).
Too many steps and way too much re-compression.
You should search for some software that will export from MPEG-2 to the iPod settings.
The white screen issue is probably caused by broken time codes (the MPEG-1 file, I suspect).
I've seen new software releases designed for iPod video export (both Mac and Windows versions). Maybe you should try a few of them.
Can the iPod battery hold out long enough to play 100 minutes of video?

Dropped frames when importing from sony dcr-hc52

hey all,
i'm getting a lot of dropped frames when importing from my sony cdr-hc52. anyone had this experience? is there a setting i'm missing that would correct this?
thanks in advance,
filmgrrrl

Hello kellyfromkenley, Depending on how you move the video or share the video from iMovie to iDVD it can make a big difference. One way is to go to the Share Menu > Share to iDVD. But the better is to Share to Media Browser instead. Try this:
Go back to iMovie and open your Project in Project Library.
Go to Share Menu > Share to Media Browser
Choose the Large size and let it run until it finishes
Quit iMovie and open iDVD.
In iDVD click on the Media Button, then click on the Movies button and look for your project under the iMovie star icon in the Media Browser itself.
Drag that project icon into the iDVD project window and burn another disk
I think you'll see an increase in the visual quality using this method.
The reason this has an effect on the visual quality is there's a whole different set of operations performed on the video when you first Share to Media Browser. The side effect of those changes in steps is a much better looking DVD from your iMovie project.

Audio cuts out (mDP - HDMI) when entering clamshell mode

Hi - my MBA is late 2012 (8 GB, 2 GHz i7, 10.7.4). When I hook it up to the LED TV (a Toshiba 40L2200U) using a Folsom miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable (no separate adaptors, it's a 6' cable with mDP at one end and hdmi at the other) it works fine - audio is transmitted and it comes through the TV speakers. But when I close the lid and try to continue watching with the laptop in clamshell mode (a magic trackpad is around that is paired to it), video continues just fine but the audio cuts out.
Annoyingly, when I open the lid back up the audio still doesn't work. I have to futz around a while before it comes back (restart any programs with audio output, unplug the cable and plug it back in again, move the audio output in system preferences to core audio and back again to the TV etc.)
Does anyone know what's up with this? I don't think it can be the cable's fault--clearly it's able to transmit audio along with the video, and nothing changes about the cable when I close the lid.
Could anyone with a similar setup (MBA/Lion -> TV via HDMI adaptor) let me know if you are able to enter clamshell mode without losing audio over hdmi?

In 'alsamixer' I have a setting called ''Headphone Jack Sense' which if enabled mutes the speaker when a headphone jack is inserted.
What's the output of
amixer get 'Headphone Jack Sense'

Iphoto is blacking out vertical images when importing. how do i fix this?

iphoto is blacking out vertical images when importing. how do i fix this?

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.

P2 card video out of sync when importing to FCP

Trying to transfer P2 card video (specs on file show 720P60 960x720 59.95 FR with time code 30FPS NDF. P2 plugin is installed and I can view the clips in log and transfer fine. But when importing into FCP the audio is OK but video is slow motion and out of sync. Help what can I do?

Go into the LOG AND TRANSFER preferences, that sprocket menu on the upper right, and uncheck REMOVE PULLDOWN. It really needs to be defaulted to OFF. It causes so many issues.

Photobooth recording videos cuts out

Hiya
my one month old macbook pro, was just using it today for a bit of fun, so i set the application up, starting recording while me and my friend did our act in front of the camera. as usual, i pressed stopped when we had finished (after 3 minutes) and photobooth finished recording. (as i pressed stop, it was still recording with the timer well into 3 minutes)
however, when playing the video back, i discovered it had only recorded about 30 seconds of it even though after 3 mins it still said recording and the green light above was on
so we tried again, this time recording for 2 and a half mins, but still not the whole thing
and again, this time for only 26 seconds.
But as i pressed stop, it still was recording!!!!!!!!! and this was after 3 minutes each time
Why has it cut loads out when it has saved it?!?!??!?!?!
really annoying. i have 130gb HDD space remaining too.
thanks very much if anyone can shed any light
Dave

thankss

Out of Sync when importing rendered sequence

This is the first time I've had this happen and haven't been able to solve the problem yet and haven't found any solutions yet through searching. Using CS5.5, I'm building a show consisting of 7 or 8 already rendered sequences. All seem fine when put together, but one sequence is thrown way out of sync when I import it. The file plays fine otherwise and it isn't until it's imported into premiere that the problem occurs. I've tried re-rendering several times and get the same out of sync problems. And it eventually gets wildly out of sync, not just a few seconds. The properties of the clip are:
Type: MPEG Movie
File Size: 1.5 GB
Image Size: 1920 x 820
Frame Rate: 23.976
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Total Duration: 00:04:23:09
Average Data Rate: 6.0 MB / second
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0
This is the same as all the other rendered/imported sequences. I'm at a loss here. Is there anyone who can help steer me to solving this?

Welcome to the forum.
Just so that everyone is on the same page, when you say "rendered," is it safe to assume that you mean that that file was Exported, and then is being Imported into a new Project?
Good luck,
Hunt

Audio on keynote exported quicktime videos cuts out at 50 seconds?

It just started! When I export my keynote into a Quicktime file, the audio cuts out at 50 seconds. I have been creating videos a long time with this method and never had problems before.

I am willing to share files with Apple. Mine are copyrighted, but are shareable.
But here's a wrinkle on the problem that puts me a little more in sympathy with Apple engineers, since they may well not have encountered the subtle environments we have that is generating this audio problem.
I was having the same problem you are for several days after I upgraded to Keynote 6.5 and Yosemite 10.10 (running on a mid-2011 MBA). I duplicated a keynote file with audio recorded that cut out after 50 seconds or so: audio stopped on slide 2 even though I had recorded and saved the whole 50 minute presentation. I store my keynote presentations along with Quicktime movies (m4v) and downsampled mp4 files in a sparsebundled disk image. I created a new, larger disk image yesterday because I was running out of storage space. To do that, I copied all the files in the sparsebundle to a temporary folder on a backup drive (My Mac Book Air is running out of storage space). Then, I deleted the old sparse bundle, created the new one, and copied all the files back.
After reading your latest post, I thought I would try again. I opened my test Keynote file, now copied to the new sparse bundle, and the audio works! I can hear the audio in the Keynote file when I "Play Recorded Slideshow" from the Play menu. I also exported to a Quicktime m4v movie and the audio is all there. The Keynote file size didn't change during all this: still 36.8MB, which is typical for the audio recorded ones. I start with a 2 to 4MB presentation of 15-20 slides, record audio, and the file size increases to 35-40MB. Then the Quicktime m4v is typical 200-300MB. This one is: 239.4MB.
So, although the bug is not squashed, take heart and don't delete those files! Your audio may actually be in there somewhere.

Stablize video with out of frame anchors?

I have some clips I want to stablize. However, no high-contrast object stays in frame throughout the clip.
What do you do in this case? Do you break the clip into two and stablize each one individually, then match them up manually?
Or is it possible to define multiple anchor points so that when one goes out of frame, another one can be use to continue the analysis?

If the shots line up spacially, you might be able to stitch them together in a pseudo-panorama and then track that. Of course also look into the techniques explained in the video. Beyond that such shots may require some heavier weapons and involve using 3D tracking/ matchmoving software like PFTrack that also can use their sophisticated algorithms to do these "simple" 2D tasks, but whether you really wanna spend 3500 GBP is another question...

Sound on videos cuts out after a few seconds?

Whenever trying to watch a video from a site on safari, Facebook (App), twitter (app) and instragram (app) the video plays sound for about a second then it cuts out. I have to restart the video or click the ringer off and on to hopefully get sound at the beginning ( which never happens). Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Same issue here. I actually won't have any sound if the video starts while "vibrate" mode is on, then when I flick it to "sounds", it plays the audio for a second then fades away until I start the video again.

Problem with Cross Dissolve: The video cuts out during the transistion

I'm encountering a problem with the Cross Dissolve transistion wherein during the period in which the transition should be happening the video instead drops out. There's plenty of heads and tails available on both clips, but as soon as the timeline hits the start of the transition "from' clip cuts out, revealing the background or black if there's no background underneath and then the "go-to" clip cuts in at the end of the transition.
Any help would be appreciated.

I've been having this issue and it's driving me crazy. It's random, that some cross dissolves work, and others don't. Seems to affect AVCHD footage. Adobe seems to be aware of the issue.
The work around that I've seen posted by a forum user "Mitch W" is to apply a GPU accelerated effect to one of the clips in the pair. The effect can be turned to "0" so as not to alter the video. The act of doing this, makes premiere see the clip differently, and render the cross dissolve correctly.
Fast Blur, set to "zero", seems to do the trick, and allows it to work with CUDA acceleration turned on. I did notice that the work around was broken by changing the playback resolution in the viewer window. In that situation, I had to apply the GPU effect to the other clip in the pair to make it work again.
I don't know what will happen if I change my playback resolution again...

'cut-out' images from Photoshop import into FCE with unwanted background

I want to import some custom 'cut-out' images from Photoshop, but they come into FCE with a rectangular background around them. Is there a way to import just the irregular 'cut-out' image?
Bob

Make sure the images are RGB 8-bit and in a format that carries an alpha channel or Photoshop transparency like Photoshop, TIFF, PNG, even PICT.
