Why is my video on adobe premiere pro cs5.5 so slow

On the editing page my video comes out very slow ( lags, choppy, etc...) even though the setting before i start a project is the same and my nikon d3100.
Should i get a video card for my toshiba laptop ? or is there some other settings i have to switch ?
Thank you.

Why do mxf files crash Adobe Premiere Pro CS5

I can import Sony HD XDCam .mxf files and I can play them and I can edit with them.
But SOME of these files, not all, when played back - get to the very end of the video file - there will be a slight stutter (in the last second or two of the clip playback) - then clip ends - then Adobe has a short freeze up (5 seconds) - then a pop up saying Adobe has encountered a problem and must SHUT DOWN. And then it shuts down.
I am importing HD XDCam .mxf files from Sony PDW F350 camera - optical disc. Audio on four channels mono. High def files. I can set inputs and outputs before the end of the clips and they do export. But playing back - I get the freeze and the SHUT DOWN... only on certain files. What's up?
Cannot work this way. Thanks for any help.

Greetings.
I have Adobe PPro 5.0.3
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
Only certain Sony mxf files will do this: At the end of the video clip - either in source window or from timeline - and I tried it only with video track on time line - at the END of the clip about 1 second from end, there is a stutter stop - then freeze for a few seconds - then a pop up from WINDOWS saying
Windows is collecting information....
ADOBE HAS STOPPED WORKING
Then shut down.
I tried un connecting from the internet, but it still has this problem.
I have Matrox Mini ox2 with Max. Mercury excelleration is on.
Everything seems to be working fine with other clips in the bin and in other projects.
These Sony HD XDCam clips came not from a camera recording - rather from a export file to disc - at a TV station using AVID Newscutter - and a U1 deck (I believe.) These mxf files were in AVID - then I exported the files to a HD XDCam Disc - then imported them into my computer into ADOBE.
Perhaps there is a problem with the AVID copy? Or settings?
Thanks for any help.

How to transfer the content of the video to Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 for editing ?

Hi there,
I have an old video camera that is still working. That video camera uses a Hi 8 tape. The tape is bigger that the current DV tape. The size of the tape is something like a tape cassette.
How to transfer the content of the video to Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 for editing ? Being an old video camera, the output doesn't have any firewire or USB connector. In fact the only output is has is the Yellow, Red & while connector (is this referred to as composite).
So, how do I input this Yellow, Red & White cable into the PC (or rather into Adobe Pro CS3) ?
Any established hardware/convertor to recommend ?
Thanks

Ryan,
For "composite out," only you will need an A-D "bridge" to Capture from that camera. Grass Valley/Canopus offers two really good ones, the ADVC-110 and the ADVC-300. There are others and also PCI A-D capture cards, but the Canopus units get very good reviews.
One other workflow would be to hook your older camera to a digital video camera with passthrough (not all have this and it is being discontinued fairly rapidly in consumer cameras) and then doing the Capture through that digital video camera via FireWire. You will not have Device Control, but can easily start/stop via the mouse and one hand on the switches, or on a remote.
Good luck,
Hunt

Why can't I download Adobe Premiere Pro from the cloud- have tried repeatedly, followed all the post

Why can't I download Adobe Premiere Pro from the cloud- have tried repeatedly, followed all the posted advice- all other programs have downloaded without a hitch.... what's the deal?

Hi Clearly Stated,
Maybe try downloading the Premiere Pro trial and then licensing it?
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=premiere_pro
After you install just covert it to be licensed as part of Creative Cloud using the "License This Software" option shown here.

Color on exported video on Adobe Premiere Pro Is a bit off from the original source video

I have both Cyberlink powerdirector 10.0 and Adobe Premiere Pro C6
I noticed that adobe premere cs6. when exporting the video.. colors are a little off.. never matching the same tones as the original
source
i took a screenshot so you can see what i mean.. Notice Adobe is a a little mor orange. is there a way to fix this? Cyberlink powedirector always matches the source color when you export it. except Adobe Premiere Pro CS 6
i have windows 7 64 bit (Nvidia GeForce GTX 670M

Thanks for answering. I ddi notice different media players show colors different. But on the screenshot i just showed you.. all 3 are from the same media player.
For some reason everytime i export a video from Adobe premiere pro the color is never the same as the source on media player. I tried it on 4 different videos. Other software programs like cyberlink power director export the video with no color change.
1)The original source from the picture is a mpeg-4 (avc)
2)i always use wmv codec to encode all videos. So the shot from Premiere Pro was using WMV codec. and the other shot (cyberlink powerdirector) was also wmv to encde.
3) I even tried to see if maybe i used a different video format to encode it would fix the slight color change. like h264 and mov.. but nope still same issue
4) I did what you told me to show the source and exported video on Adobe Premiere and really weird. the exporterd video from Adobe Premiere now shows the exact color as the source.. but the exported video from Cyberlinkpowerdirector shows the color a bit different.
Heres the media codec information

I couldn´t see imported videos with Adobe Premiere pro

Hello:
My name is Oren. I´m from Spain, and this is my problem.
One month ago I bought a Toshiba Satellite 850-31M. It has an x64 processor, 16 GB of RAM and I have 2 hard drives, the c: an SSD of 500 GB and other of 1 Tb hardisk, configured as D:. It has a GeForce GT 630M graphics card with 2 GB of RAM. W8 operating system.
I wanted to try the Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and I downloaded the trial version. No problem, until I tried to import a video in the source window. Appears a small window that says "importing" and give to play in the source window and start .Audio be heard, but not the image. I've tried different video formats and always the same. The same video are seamlessly Quick Time and other video viewers ..... I do not know what to do, I think I've tried everything, even restart the computer to its factory settings and install Adobe Premiere vacuum and the problem remains. I tested with a trial of Premiere CS5.5 and got it. You hear the audio but no video . Insert the video in the timeline and recognizes it as such, even the first frame, but said, is not seeing in the "source", nor in the preview, only the audio.
What could it be? Am I you could lend a hand I'm desperate?
thank you very much

Hello:
I have the vídeos in a hard-disk. I'd tried in different video formats and
always the same. I hear the audio but I couldn't see the video image.

Specific Video Footage in Premiere Pro CS5 completely black.

I've been working on a music video project in Premiere Pro CS5 for the past few months and everything has worked really well until just a few days ago, when a certain chunk of my high speed footage randomly turned black. I have it in its own bin so it's separated from my other video source files. If I try to preview these videos, all it shows is black footage (though the timelengths for each one are still correct). I checked and made sure the actual .avi files on my hard drive still worked, and they played through perfectly. I tried re-importing these videos into my project file and that didn't do anything. I made sure they were connected to the right files in the right folder on my computer, and they were. The rest of my video footage works just fine, so I'm confused why this certain bunch randomly turned completely black.
I backed up the entire project to an external hard drive and loaded it on a different computer with Premiere Pro CS6 on it, and everything works perfectly again. Does anybody have any idea how I can get my footage to return from the black abyss it's fallen into on my personal computer running CS5?

AVI is a wrapper... what is inside your wrapper?

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,

How to download Adobe Premiere pro CS5 for windows to my new imac 27 inch

How to download Adobe Premiere pro CS5 for windows to my new imac 27 inch

IMHO Windows would be the place to start.
Why do you want to load CS5 for Windows?
Adobe does produce a version of CS5 that runs on OS X so that it would not be necessary for you to have to screw around with Windows. Personally that would be the way to go and avoid the hassles of Windows.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 crasing from ripple delete and copy

I've been using Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 for several months now and it's been working with next to no problems and I've been very happy with it until today.
As I've neared the end of a recent project, after doing nothing different than usual I went to use ripple delete and every time I try it I now get this error message:
Premiere Pro Debug Event
Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
[..\..\Src\Sequence\Action\ClipTrackRippleAction.cpp-56]
Then:
Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project.
Then:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program…
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application’s support team for more information.
Then:
Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
[Close program]
Then if I try to copy clips or move multiple clips this error message shows up:
Premiere Pro Debug Event
Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
[..\..\Src\Sequence\Action\SequenceAddTransitionAction.cpp-57]
Then:
Premiere Pro Debug Event
Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
[..\..\Src\Sequence\TrackItemTrack.cpp-639]
Then:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program…

Then:
Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 has stopped working

[Close program]
I am, however, still able to move single clips, adjust the length of individual clips and able to watch my project.
I've tried two different computers and restarted one and nothing has changed.
Is there an explanation as to why this is happening? Is there anything I can do to get around this or make it stop?

Lord Nelson here.
I've reverted back to 5.5.0 as I was experiencing lock-up problems with the BM Intensity Pro.
Unfortunately I haven't found a way of simply uninstalling the update and reverting back to an earlier version. Win 7 Sytem Restore wouldn't, so I had to uninstall Premiere Pro, apply the Adobe Clean Install utility (or whatever!) and then reinstall PP CS5.5. Trouble was that it reinstalled the whole suite, not just PP - so I lost all custom workspaces across the suite.
Grrrrr!

Final Cut Studio Vs Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.

What are the best reasons for purchasing Final Cut Studio over Adobe Premiere Pro CS5?
Thanks!

Hi friends i'ven reading your coments and my conclusions are CS5 is faster and has the same features and quality than FCP, i like to ask to Studio X if you know more FCP and you are a pro why? with facts because if i have to buy or say to a friend or client go and use one or another with real facts.
Example FCP has better color calibration, better final quality, more features or so.
Another curious thing is that jhon 1 in 2 said is better AVCHD compatibility or handle these are to consistent points that i can undertand as a normal person.
I can understand a point if you can say me why FCP is better with examples because i know much of hardware but a little of this software, i can give a big point to a software tha can use mi machine at full capacity because if i spend 10K$ in a computer i'd like a blazing fast one, if not is better to spend only 2.5K$ and wait the same amount of time for the same results.
Sorry for my english i'm not from USA so my vocabulary is short.

So upon opening Premiere everything seems ok. There is no lagging or glitching, I can click tabs and everything is fine.
When I import a .mov file or any of my previous premiere pro files I have no issues.
The problem starts when I try to scrub through the timeline. As I scrub through it nothing shows up in the preview area. Sometimes it is blank and other times it only shows the image that the scrubber was set on. The program seems ok as I'm scrubbing, there's no weird lagging and the program doesn't freeze until the box telling me "Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 has stopped working" pops up.
The same thing happens every time. I do not know why.
Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this?
My copy of Premiere Pro is legal and bought.
The sooner I can resolve this the better. I have other computers I can use premiere pro on but I would like to be able to work on my own laptop when I'm at home :|.
I've also tried updating the program but that didn't do anything either.

It turned out to be a display problem with my computer's settings.
For some reason my computer changed its color mode from 32 bit to 16 bit, which was also making my photoshop gradients show up choppy.
I changed it back and problem solved!!
Thankyou though!

Options for exporting a project in Adobe premiere Pro CS5.5

When Exporting a project from Adobe premiere Pro CS5.5 I use the format of Windows Media file and Preset HDTV 1080P 30 HighQuality. At the bottom of the window there are some options that say "Use Maximum Render Quality" And "Use Frame Blending". I used these two options on my first video I exported but I want to know for the future what both of these options do exactly to my film and if they could adversely effect things like lighting and the frame rate of a clip or anything?

Max Render Quality does what is says: gives better picture quality, but will lengthen the export process.
Frame Blending you check when output framerate differs from timeline framerate.

Adobe premiere pro CS5.5 Mercury playback engine with CUDA

Hello,
I am trying to turn on the mercury playback engine to use my graphic card (Geforce 9800 GT)
I have modified that cuda_supported_cards.txt using my graphic card name and when I tried to save it it says access denied
so I have copied that cuda_supported_cards.txt file to the desktop and modified it and replaced it back in to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 .
After all this the mercury engine with cuda is not turning on
Is it becasue my graphic card will not support to CS5.5?
Please help me.....
Thank you...
