Working on keyframes in a copied sequence changes the original sequence as well (Premiere Pro CS5.5)

Hi everyone,
maybe this is a very basic question, but the search in the forum didn't bring up any related questions, so here i go:
Let's say, i copy a sequence in Premiere Pro CS5.5 and paste it in the same project. I have some textclips with keyframes in them. (I do this, because the videos stay the same, i just write different things into them. When i change the keyframes in the copied sequence the way i need them there and then go back to the original sequence, the keyframes there were changed as well. This is not what i wanted.
My question therefore is: How can i make a copy of one sequence and then work on it without changing the original one at the same time? Why are they linked anyway? Is that just a selection in my version of Premiere Pro or is that a general thing?
Would be great, if someone could explain that to me.
thanks!

If you have not done the New Title Based on Current Title, what you have are Instances of that Title, and they are all linked to the original Title. Make a change, and it is global to all Instances. This is very useful, if for instance, you have a typo. Say that you have used the old Western moivie cliche Title "Meanwhile Bock at the Ranch," a dozen times, only to discover the typo. You only have to correct "Bock" to "Back" one time, and it corrects all Instances of that Title.
With New Title Based on Current Title, you have separate, individual, and un-linked Titles, so any change will ONLY affect the Instances of THAT Title.
While the Instances can be very useful, one can be easily confused, when a change to one Instance affects all others.
Good luck,

Variable of copied Query changes the original Query - variable

Team:
I have a Query "A". Then, I made a copy "B". Both Queries are the same definition, including the variables. In the Query A, there is a variable "ZWWW" that checks the date entered by the user. In the user exit I_step = 3, we check for the validity of the date entered. Unfortunately, we need to test the Query in QAS, which we do not need to test the validity of the data. Thus, we changed the variable to be "YYYYY" on the Query B.
Unfortunately, this new variable "YYYY" somehow is reflected automatically in the original Query A. This issue is only present if the Query B is a copy of Query A. Basically, the Query A and B have different technical names and UIDs. However, they are in the background related.
The question is: how can I change the variable on Query B without affecting Query A.

Hi Raul,
Variables are at
Query Filter Level
RKF Level..which is Global
What i understand is that this Variable of Query is in the RKF - which is GLOBAL.So if we change the RKF Variable on that Multiprovider... for not just Query A... ...it will change across all the Queries not just Query A or B.
We will have to identify the RKF1 and create a copy of the RKF1 as New RKF2 and replace the old Variable with the New One YYYY.
Hope this Clarifies.

AVCHD interlaced sequence export to progressive (h.264) with Premiere Pro CS5.

Hi !
I have searched everywhere on the web (and this forum) for an appropriate answer.
Here is the problem :
I have used AVCHD (upperfields first / square pixels / 1080i30(i60)) footages to make a movie.
The primary sequence settings are correct :
AVCHD 1080i30(i60) square pixels
The files play fine in Premiere, and the montage was flawless in high 1080i quality.
I have exported 5 seconds of the movie into raw "AVI Microsoft uncompressed" files, so I can import them in "After Effects" to had some texts and graphics. When done, I re-imported them into the Premiere's sequence. (same AVI uncompressed format).
Playback works fine. The movie looks great and flawless, and has no interlacing artifact.
HOWEVER : When I want to export this sequence into a MPEG H.264 progressive final file, there is some gerkiness on the parts where the "AVI" files were added.
It looks as if it had been interlaced, when the rest of the movie looks ok.
When I'm in the exporting window, I can see the "Source" and "Output" display.
"Source" looks fine and "Output" looks gerky.
I have tried to create a new progressive sequence, into which I imported my main AVCHD sequence (with some progressive footages in it). To no avail !... I had heard that this could work but it's not.
I looked in the "Output" window while trying all the possible codec formats (and field orders), to no avail.
UNTIL !! I checked the key : "Make Sequence settings match" that is on top of the exporting window.
The image in the "Output" window became clear. However, all the settings below the checked key were now locked.
Producing a file with this format (it seems it is a MPEG2 / upperfield first, the same format that is used for Preview files) can render a file that has all it's field and image quality aligned.
By unchecking the "Make sequence match" key, I was able to create my own settings of MPEG2 "upperfield" that still interpretes the movie correctly.
But it's not the MPEG H.264 progressive file that I want. I have to re-render it with a third party software to get a H.264(p) out of a MPEG2(i).
Is there something I should check or try to be able to export my movie in H.264 directly ?
Thank you!

How to change the language to English in Premiere Pro CS6?

Hi there,
I recently bought the Master Suite over Amazon, because the Adobe Online Store seemed broken (Unknown Errors after ordering and a Telephone Number which you couldn't call) and I really needed it before the end of the year (Tax Reasons). So now I got the German Version. I want it to be in English because the Translations are sometimes really bad and also most of the Tutorials and Learning Materials are in English. No big deal I thought, you can surely change it to English. I did my Research and I could change Photoshop and AfterEffects to English. What is left of my most used Tools is Premiere Pro. So:
How can I change my Premiere Pro CS6 to english? There has do be a way?
Thanks a lot!
Edit: Also I can't request a language swap as recommend http://forums.adobe.com/message/4702895#4702895 because i couldn't order it via adobe store.

I know that the PrPro S/N's are platform-specific, i.e. Mac, OR PC, but I am not sure if they are also language-specific. Others WILL know. If they are NOT, then it should be possible to download the trial for English, and unlock that with your S/N. I have never done a trial, so have never converted to the full-paid with my S/N, but am just thinking there.
As for the Adobe Store, you are correct that they had issues (many related to Adobe cookies in one's browser), and I had to make a purchase, about the same time that you did, from another browser.
With your invoice and S/N, Adobe Customer Support (not Technical Support), should either be able to help you, or give you the definitive answer to your question. If you bought directly FROM Amazon, they are a certified reseller, so that should not be a problem. If you bought from someone else, just THROUGH Amazon, then there could be a problem.
Good luck,

Help: Clips rendered in AE turn blue when changing clip speed and exporting in Premiere Pro

Hi
I've been having this problem in Premiere Pro CS5 (I'm just not sure with CS4 & ealier versions).. ok the problem is that in Premiere Pro CS5 when I change the speed of a clip that is rendered in After Effects and export it either in AVI or in MOV, it produces some blue flicker on that clip or sometimes the entire clip turns blue..This only happens when I am using Quicktime Animation codec in AE..I can't find any forum that discusses this problem..And I don't know if others are also experiencing this (except for my friend who is also experiencing this in MacOSX)..by the way my version of Premiere Pro is 5.0.3 and my After Effects is 10.0.2.4 (Windows 7 x64)..I don't know know if this is a bug in PrPro or AE, or if Adobe is aware of this problem..
Here's a video of what I am consulting to you guys for you to better understand what I'm saying.. (sorry, no audio)
P.S. CS5.5 users please tell me if you also experience this..
Thanks in advance!

This only happens when I am using Quicktime Animation codec in AE
So don't do that. It's probably not the best choice for video, anyway. I mean it says right in the name - "animation". There's a reason for that.
On a Windows machine, Lagarith and UT are two free lossless codecs that play well within the Adobe suite. Give them a try.
Or better yet, don't render out of AE at all. Use Dynamic Linking instead.

Mac OSX v10.6.5: How's it working for you with Premiere Pro CS5?

If you've installed Mac OSX v10.6.5, let us know how it's working for you.
Please make sure that you're using the most recent update for Premiere Pro CS5 before you report back. We don't want to waste our time disentangling problems that were actually fixed in Premiere Pro CS5 (5.0.2) from issues that still exist.

So, here is my experience:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/751458?tstart=0
Basically:
Premiere Pro does not want to play the timeline (or the source window) anymore. Sometime it plays for 2 minutes, sometime for 2 seconde and then stops, but most of time, it wont play at all.
I can scroll over my timeline (no sound scrolling), but when I hit space bar (or clic on the play button) I can see the play button turning into a square (which mean it's now the stop button), but the timecodes doesn't run and the image doesn't play.
So I suggest people to not being stupid as I was and to wait before to update... And hope a solution to come soon.

Iphoto - when exporting photos with their titles,iPhoto changes the manual sequence that I have given and imposes an alphabetical sequence

Mac mini
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 768 MB
Software OS X 10.8.5 (12F45)
When exporting a group photos with their individual titles, iPhoto changes the manual sequence that I have given and imposes its own sequence (which seems to be alphabetical). The export dialogue box allows me to use my titles or to impose a numerical sequence.
How can I keep my titles and the sequencing that I had carefully worked out?

What you are missing is that files have no order - you view them using a program and that program creates the order
When viewing in an iPhoto album you can sort manually and iPhoto will display the photos as you sorted them - but when you move to a different program (the finder for example) you have a totally different set of sorts available - for example in the finder the same set of files can be viewed in alpha order, in size order, in date modified order, etc - none of those are inherent in the file but are sorts set under the view menu
So to meet your requirements you must export with file attributes that allow the finder view options to present your desired view - which is what volunteers here have tried to help with - even though it really does not involve IPhoto in any way

Ibook g4 (2005) wont boot from cd. always wants to boot from hd. how do i change the boot sequence?

so my ibook as i wrote will not boot from the cd rom. it always wants to boot from the hd but i had the hd wiped b/c it had linux and it would not allow me to access the firmware. now that the hd is clean i was able to access the firmware but i dont know how to change the boot sequence. the starts to spin in the drive and acts like it want to boot from the cd but the cd just keeps spinning and i get a screen with a blinking question mark and smiley face.

Hello and welcome to the support community.
Why do you need to go into the firmware?
If the disk is a boot disk like Mac OS X, then all you need to do is hold down 'C' key or the option key while the disk is in the drive and the iBook is booting up (After the chime)
If either doesn't work, then there must be an issue with the disk not being a boot disk or corrupted. Alternatively a problem with the optical drive. You don't need to go into the firmware to change any boot selection.
Hope this helps

Changing the Sequence of the Access Sequence for Pricing Condition Type

Hi Friends,
We have an access sequence to determine the pricing. We have 8 key combinations for the same.
Customer/Plant/Material/Batch
Sales Org/ Dist Ch/ Cust Region/Plant/Material/ Batch
Price List Type/Currency/Plant/Material/ batch
Plant/Material/ Batch
1st 4 is with batch. and 2nd 4 is without batch. At the time of implementation ie., before 8 years the 1st 4 key combinations were used. But now based on the business need we are not using the 1st 4 key combination rather we are using the 2nd 4 which is without batch.
My question is that can we change the access sequence so that while the system fetches the price it need not go through the entire ( 91,02,401 ) records.
If this is possible then
Will there by any impact during viewing of past data?

Hi,
There are two options.
1)Change the validity dates for those condition records to earlier date.
2)Usually the sytem checks from top to bottom.If it finds the record in first table then it will return that value and stop searching.
As your not required things are on the top,remove the condition records for them using VK12 T.Code.And maintain the records for what condition tables you are required.
Regards,
Krishna.

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

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!

New in Premiere Pro CS5. Questions: markers, shortcuts, keyframes, and more!

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I'm an editor from Argentina, with background in Avid media Composer, but I'm switching to premiere pro cs5 for a new job. I was highly and happily surprised with it. But, there's still a couple of things I haven't quite got right, yet.
So, a couple of newbie questions... you'll save me a lot of time if you can answer some of them.
Markers
1a. Can I use markers with different colors?
1b. Is there a way to select more than one marker and delete them at the same time? Of course, with out deleting all of them, just the ones I need.
1c. How can I set up a shortcut for going to next\previous clip marker in the timeline? In shortcuts, I go to Marker>Go go Clip marker> and select a shortcut, but in the timeline it goes nowhere. I have made this work for sequence markers in the timeline, and this shortcut also work for going next\previous marker on a clip in the source monitor.
1d. How can I extend a marker in the timeline? I know I can set the duration of the marker in the pop up menu... but if there a way to do it directly in the timeline?
Razor Tool
2. A simple one. After I've used the razor tool on a clip... how can I join the clip again?
Track Select Tool
3. Can the Track Select Tool, select all the clips to the LEFT, instead of all the clips to the right? In avid there's a Select Right command, which works as the track selector, but there's also a Select Left command, which does the same, but to the left.
Audio Master Meters
4.Another simple one. Can I put this in a horizontal way? It'll fit perfectly in the tool bar then.
Tab sizes
5.Can the tab size be modified? I have "Media browser", "Info", "History", "Effects" all docked... but the size of the panel is such that I can never see the four tabs at once, I have to drag the little bar at the top. Can I have the tabs be smaller so that I can see the four of them... as if they said "Media.." "inf.." "hist".."eff"... instead of wasting space with long tab names?
Keyframes
6. Is there a shortcut to add one? Where is it in the shorcut configuration? I know I can put them with the Pen Tool, I need a shortcut to replace the "add/remove keyframe" button on the tracks in the timeline.
6b.How can I snap the current time indicator to a shortcut in the timeline?
6c. Can I lazo multiple keyframes?
Audio While Scrubbing
7. In Preferences>Audio>Play Audio While Scrubbing I can select that on and off. How can I set a shortcut for that?
Well... that was A LOT! Sorry for so many questions. Hopefully they can help other new users.

From the top:
1a. No; but you can set numbered markers, for both clips and the sequence.
1b. No; you can delete one or all.
1c. You have to select the clip in order to activate the command.
1d. You can only do this in the Marker dialog.
2. No direct way to do this. Delete either the portion before or after the edit, and then extend the clip to fill the gap. Clunky, yes.
3. No, the Track Select tool only operates to the right.
4. Audio meters are vertical only.
5. The tab size matches the title of the tab; no way to change this.
6a. No keyframe shortcut.
6b. It doesn't work in the Timeline panel, but in the Effects Controls panel, you can hold down Shift to snap the CTI as you drag.
6c. You can lasso multiple keyframes in the Effects Controls panel with the standard selection tool, or you can use the Pen tool in the Timeline panel. Just be sure to start within the graphical representation of the clip.
7. No, it's only a program preference.
Sorry that so many of them are negative! Be sure to file feature requests for anything that you'd like to see: Adobe Feature Request/Bug Report Form
