Video Transitions for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 contains/includes very few useful video transitions for my work. There were many very useful, sophicticated and great third party plugins for video transitions for earlier versions of Premiere (i.e. Premiere 6.5), but most of these no longer work with Premiere Pro CS4. Adobe kept changing the plugin architecture so that third party plugins for earlier versions of Premiere would stop working with newer versions of Premiere.
What third party plugins are available for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 that will provide sophisticated, fancy and useful video transitions? What third party plugins are available for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 that will provide sophisticated, fancy and useful video effects filters? Most third party plugins that I am aware of only work with Adobe After Effects CS4, but I would like to find those that will work with Adobe Premiere Pro CS4.
Unless there are some very good third party plugins available for Adobe Premier Pro CS4, I am about ready to uninstall CS4 and reinstall Premiere 6.5 and the third party plugins I had for it and work with those.
Thank you for any information you can provide!

Richard,
Welcome to the forum.
The term "useful" can mean different things to different people.
Here are some of the 3rd party Transition plug-ins, that will work (in their current versions) in CS4:
Pixelan SpiceMaster
ProDAD Adorage
NewblueFX
HollywoodFX used to work, with a bit of file renaming, but I think that Pinnacle has dropped that line of Transitions
Good luck,
Hunt

  • Where can I download a trial for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 Middle East version

    Hello
    I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4
    Now I am working with new project which requires me to add some titles in Arabic (I mean from right-to-left direction)
    Please how can I do so?
    Does it requires me to get a new copy for middle east? or I can do it with some how using my current version?
    Please consider it important and needed.

    I do not mean the interface or anything a like.
    But I only mean to suport or enabling titles written in Arabic language like this (بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم)
    We do have Adobe Photoshop CS4 ME (not mine but my company has it and it support adding Arabic as I've mentioned above)
    So I was looking for to see Adobe Premiere have the same thing.
    Thanks,
    I'll add the feature request as you recommended.

  • What's the best DIVX file conversion solutions for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, Windows XP OS.

    I am on a PC with CS4 Adobe Premiere Pro using XP OS.
    I have VIO POV 1 (helmet cam) footage that I need to edit within my CS4 project.  The Footage is DIVX MPEG4 AVI and Premiere doesn't recognize the video.  I need to figure out the best conversion to maintain the highest quality format that Premiere will recognize.
    What is your best recommendation on how to convert (and what format to convert to to maintain the best quality) and can you recommend a good converter program?  Free perhaps if I don't have to buy one.
    I have spent days looking for a solution and reviewing posts but to no avail.  I have tried MPEG Streamclip, Virtual Dub, Digital Media Converter, Prism and many selected others.
    -MPEG Streamclip doesn't seem to recognize the DIVX files (even after the 3IVX codec installed)
    -Digital Media Converter (free watermarked version) seems to work to produce the DV AVI files (type II) but the quality is pretty low so not really wanting to pay $50 to use the low quality conversion -does the converter program have much to do with the quality of the output?  It also produces a MPEG2 that seems a little better quality than the DV AVI file it produces.
    -Prism does convert to a high quality AVI file that does output a really high quality file that plays in Media Player (latest version) but not in Premiere Pro CS4. Prism also converts to a WMV (windows media vid) that I can use on PP but is not quite the quality of the above noted AVI.  This may be my best option???? Or is it a bad idea to use a compressed codec as wmv to edit and eventually output for the complete PP movie?
    http://www.nchsoftware.com/prism/index.html
    Any insight is very much appreciated. I must get on with my editing project!!! Thanks,
    Aaron.

    Jeff, thanks so much, but I'm still not quite there!  Agreed, codec packs can be dangerous but apparently the DIVX one is OK!
    So I downloaded the DIVX pack, and the VirtualDub did work and converted via VirtualDub to AVI,... then tried in PremierePro.  Again no luck viewing... sound OK but the video freezes on the first frame or two.  I can view those outputs in MediaPlayer or DIVX player though. So I tried rerunning the UT codec installer and the logarith but still can't view the outputs from VirtualDub in PP.
    I tried (in VirtualDub) converting the previously converted AVI file I did in Prism converter and again, can see the output in PP (still minor artifacts here and there though).
    ?Maybe I should just be happy with a the DIVX converted to a .wmv file but I think I will be sacrificing quality on already pretty grainy footage that I'm inserting into a largely HD film project so kinda shotty?
    Any more suggestions? The help is greatly appreciated!
    Aaron.

  • Problem with video playback in adobe premiere pro CS4

    Whevener i am to put something into my video. Via it be either A fraps recorded video or a video shot by my camera... i put it in the library and drag it to the stage. then when i play it in Premiere the video just stays as a still picture but the audio plays. It does this with 2 methods i tried (Fraps and my Photosmart M537 Camera). I asked My uncle (who had the same problems with CS3) and he said that hes pretty sure theres something wrong with the Codec. I think thats it because when i put in my video that i had recorded with Hypercam 2. it worked fine. Could anybody please help me?

    1 - search the forum for fraps - many problems, few successes
    2 - what CODEC is used for your Photosmart M537 Camera?
    If that is a STILL camera which has a video mode, you most likely need to convert to DV AVI type 2 with 16bit 48khz sound

  • Creative Wedding Transitions & Effects for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 or CS5.5

    Hi!
    I am Professional Wedding Video Editor. before that i was using Pinnacle Studio 14 and Canopus Edius Pro but these Sucks, Now i have Intel Core i7 Extreme 64 bit OS and using Windows 7. I just Buye the Adobe Creative Suite 5. and soon i will Upgrade to Adobe CS5.5 . this is the Great Video Editing Software i Ever Seen. But i found some standard Dissolve & wipe Transitions in it.
    My Question is that can i Use 3rd Party Creative Video Effects & Transitions with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5?
    i want to know about thier names. that has Great transitions and smooth Transitions ever.
    Thanks
    Looking forward for Great Response.
    Regards,
    Waseem

    Once, one could use the Hollywood FX Transitions (available from Pinnacle), but I believe that as of about CS4, that is no longer possible, but since Zac did not mention it (also, I think that Pinnacle no longer works with Hollywood FX, and they might be history?), I assume that CS5/CS5.5 does not support them either.
    Pixelan (mentioned above) is a great resource for Transitons, and I recommed them highly.
    I also have ProDAD's Adorage, but do not use those that often.
    My normal Transitions are just Butt-cut, Cross-Dissolve and Dip-to-Black.
    Good luck,

  • Exponential fade on Adobe Premiere Pro CS4

    I  am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. I have recorded some voice. And I am deleting a few words, so I use the razor tools to cut the starting and end points of the uwanted audio. Then i ripple delete it. To make it smooth, I try to apply the exponential fade on the transition. However, the unwanted voice reappear!. It seems that the deleted part just appears hidden. I'd like to ask how I can completely delete it so it will never be revealed.
    Thanks for your help!!!

    It sounds like when you have Cut out the unwanted Audio, and then applied the Transition, you are picking up some of that removed Audio, due to the need for Handles to allow for the Transition. Though it focuses on Video, the theory of Handles is covered in this ARTICLE. With Audio, it is the same.
    Good luck,

  • How can I add my software in Adobe's Third-party plug-ins for Adobe Premiere Pro ?

    Hi,
    Our company have a software called Moyea Importer for Adobe Premiere.
    Moyea Importer for Adobe Premiere is a recommended FLV, MPG, RMVB, HD  video import plugin for Adobe Premiere Pro. This plug-in enables users  to import FLV videos with various codec like AVC/H.264, AAC, Screen  Video, Nellymoser, MP3, PCM, and Sorenson H.263. Besides FLV video, the  plug-in allows AVCHD import and HD video import in MTS, M2TS, TP, TS,  and MKV formats.
    Moyea Importer for Adobe Premiere do not convert your video so it keeps  video quality for you. The plug-in automatically detects the Adobe Premiere versions on your  machine and you can choose the versions to install the plug-in. It  currently supports Adobe Premiere Pro 1.0/1.5/2.0/CS3/CS4 and Elements  3.0/4.0/7.0/8.0.
    I notice in Third-party plug-ins for Adobe Premiere Pro this part, Adobe didn't get any such plug-ins. They only have two file support plug-ins and Moyea Importer can fill the blank.
    Now I want to submit this software on Adobe's site but I don't know where to submit or who I should to contact. Any suggestions? I really need your help and I am sure it is really good software.

    Any suggestion? Admin of this board? Who can help me

  • Need Help Fast Re: Problems with capturing in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4

    I am working on a project with a deadline.  I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4.  My camera is a Sony Digital Video Recorder DCR-HC26.  My computer is a Dell with OS of Windows Vista.  I have been capturing numerous clips from hundreds of mini digital video cassettes.  Yesterday, I attempted to capture from a Radio Shack Mini DV Metal Evaporated mini DV digital videocassette.  For whatever reason it will not capture.  I have never used one of these tapes before.  Could it be the tape?  After I click on "Capture," the screen shows NO PICTURE of sound, however, it plays on the camera.  It can't be the camera settings because all the other tapes work. . .  Any advice?

  • Media Pending with Adobe Premiere Pro CS4

    First of all guys, I know this is not a brand new issue but please help me out as am providing details. Thank you.
    I have JVC Everio jvc everio gz-hd5 60GB camcorder. As you probably know that it records file into .TOD format, I converted them into .MPG format. This is how I am importing to Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 before it's showing me golden little screen displaying PENDING MEDIA forever.
    1. Import -> new project
    2. Capture format -> HDV
    3. Available Preset -> HDV108030p
    Operating system detail
    Microsoft XP Pro Version 2002 Service pack 3
    2.19 GHZ, 1.99GB RAM, Intel core 2 duo CPU
    p.s - I read some forums but the way they explained is too confusing.

    I dont think I have enough info about your computers and hard drives and so on to tell if you can really edit HD stuff , but at this point you should really convert the TOD file first anyway. I don't think just renaming the extension will make it work OK, but I found some info on the internet that might help you convert to a more editor friendly format...
    Standard definition video is stored in MPEG program stream container files with MOD  extension; in most other systems these files have extension MPG or MPEG.  High definition video is stored in MPEG transport stream container files with TOD  extension; in most other systems these files have M2T extension.[2] Transport stream files can be converted into more common program stream  files without recompressing the video itself. For example, FFmpeg,  a free software program, performs the conversion on Windows  and Linux systems with the following command: ffmpeg -i myclip.TOD  -acodec copy -vcodec copy myclip.mpg. Software, included with TOD  camcorders, performs this conversion as part of capture process. A  similar command is used for MOD files: ffmpeg -i myClip.MOD -vcodec  copy -acodec ac3 -ab 384k myClip.mpg -acodec mp2 -ab 192k -newaudio.
    You Gspot screenshot is good, and it shows that it doesn't recognize anything about the codec and codec name..the right side of the GSpot is usually full of information about the video file...like the frame size, FPS , aspect ratio, and so on.  As you can see from the above paragraph you would probably benefit from converting the TOD file using FFmpeg or some other program like streamclip ( also free program )
    That's your first step I think...
    You will have to know what your video file is...from the camera manual you can find out the frame size and fps used, whether it is progressive or interlaced, etc...  The reason you will need to know about your video file is because when you open the TOD file in a program like streamclip to convert it, you will want to convert it to basically the same specs, but with as a different "codec" and file type....but keep the same video characteristics as the original.

  • My Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 wont export properley.

    Im running Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 on my Windows Vista & everytime I try to export my video something goes wrong. When I go to export, it opens Adobe Media Encoder & starts encoding it, but most of the time it will jus stop encoding. Even the elapsed time stops ticking. & I know it isnt the program freezeing up because I can still click the icons and even cancel or add new files, and it isnt just running slow because ive left it for 4 hours and it made no progress at all. A few times it has finished but the video gets screwed up. Like once a certain effect didnt show up, & both times the clips got screwed up & jus flashed green & repeated with the audio stillplaying fine. The only thing I can think of is it's the fact that Im running Vista or that the video has 117 items imported. Please help, Im at wit's end.

    Alright, my computer is a Windows Vista. My processor is AMD athlon(tm) Dual Core Processor 4450e 2.30 GHz. I have 3 Gigs of memory (RAM), and it's a 32-bit Operating System. I have 2 harddrive Disks, the C drive (85.6 GB free of 112 GB) and a "FACTORY_IMAGE (D:)" with 1.53 GB  free of 11.2 GB, but I think the D drive is just for recoverey, it came built in with the computer. My virtual memorey says it's saving on the C drive and has "Total paging file size for all drives: 3241 MB". I close all other programs besides Adobe Premire Pro CS4, and Adobe Media Encoder when encodeing. Ive also tried running just Media ENcoder with same results.
    The video files I have uploaded are .MP4 and .FLV. Ive uploaded MP3 files for some of the sound clips and PNG for some still images. Like I said before I have 117 imported files. Also my video is 7 minutes and 44 seconds long.
    Now my problem has never accoured in the same place in the video. It seems to be spontanious. For example I tryed to export it the first time and it encontered an "Unknown Error" this was at a minute and a half of encoding the video. Then the second time I tryed to encode it it worked all the way through, but when I went to play the file it played just fine up until a point. then a series of clips began to flicker and play the wrong clips, some times from a scene that happened just previously to the clip before and also flash green. The audio stayed the same though. After the clip finished and another clip began to play it worked fine. Then I tryed to encode it a third time and this time it simply stopped encoding. Like I mentioned earlier the program or my computer never froze it just stopped encoding and the timer stopped. This happened a few more times before it finished encoding it again, but the same problem happened with the skipping, playing the wrong clip and flashing green while the video progressed, but this time it happened at a compltetly different part. For exaple the first time it happened about 2 minutes into the movie and the second time it happened about 5 minutes intot he movie.
    When while I was making the video randomly the flickering of wrong clips and green flashing accourded when I would played a scene, now by just restaring premiere the problem would go away and the scene would play just fine. But this only happened in editing maybe 3 times. Unlike when I was encoding where it happens everytime the program finishes.
    I hope this was enough info, if Ive missed anything please tell me.

  • Can I import I-life files into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4?

    Okay, so not exactly an Apple question, but there are so many smart, helpful people on here, and the Adobe forum doesn' t seem very active.
    I recently got Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 (the movie editing software).  I tried to import files from I-photo, but those folders wouldn't even open.  Tried to import files from the movie folder, which were in .mpg format, but got a message that it is an incompatible format.
    Those were just simple movie files taken with a small digital camera.  Does anyone know how I could use this footage in Adobe Pro?  I have access to other Adobe software as well, perhaps there is a way to convert the files?  If I try to import something to Adobe from I-movie, should that work?  Or from I-DVD?  Also, is it possible, with Adobe or regular Mac software, to import regular DVD footage (that is not in form of a computer file, but just something that plays in your DVD player) or perhaps convert it into a computer file?  I have some old VHS footage that was copied onto a DVD and would like to edit it, or at least have it on my computer as a file.
    Also, if I can't use those files, are there any places on the internet where one can download some simple footage to try out in Adobe?  I'm new to it, so I'm just trying to get some files together so I can try out how it works.
    Lastly, if anyone knows of a good online tutorual for CS4.  It's an older version, and on the Adobe site they only have tutorials for the newer one.
    Thanks!

    This is a forum. None of the users here -at least not to my knowledge - are Adobe professional
    Ninety-nine point nine percent correct. We are blessed with a few Adobe employees here, unlike some fora, but those folk are probably at NAB right now. Also, they are in other departments, so would have to walk "down the hall," or make a call, just as we would.
    When it gets to issues on licensing, installation, etc., we're pretty much at a loss. Most of us have never encountered such issues, and only know what we have read in others' threads, when they have bothered to report back. Even then, that is third-hand info.
    Last time that I had an Adobe installation issue was AI 3, IIRC. My upgrade version did not have the old database of S/N's. Mine was 00-000-003, and things had changed drastically. One call to Adobe, and a total time of about 5 mins. (including hold time), and I was given a number to plug in, and then everything installed perfectly. That was in about 1989, so is not quite contemporary. Still, that is the last and only first-person account that I can offer. Most here have zero personal experiences, as they came to the party later, and have just not had any such issues.
    We'd love to help, but just do not have the experience.
    Good luck,
