Would I use Premiere Pro for making a DVD?

I am looking to put my graphic design porfolio on a DVD. I want to have an interactive DVD with a menu where user to pick which area of design they want to explore and my resume itself. Then when they pick a piece...I want to have the information page to pop up first then the user have the ability to pick the piece where it will enlarge on the screen or vice versa. It's all still pieces, no video. Then I want to author the DVD.
However, I am not sure which Adobe programs to use to do this DVD. I was thinking of using Premiere Pro CS4 and Encore?? Am I correct?
I need direction and advice!! Thank you!

How to use Premiere Pro for live shoots (newbie needing some answers)

My school is about to delve into the world of live streaming. We have a homemade Tricaster setup of sorts which allows for us to use three camcorders through as switcher which allows for some nice streaming capabilities.
My question is, how do I use Premiere Pro, or something else, to run live titles/graphics, etc. into the production? You know, things like lower thirds, etc.?
Is this as simple as running another computer into a source on the switcher? If so, how do I get the graphics etc. to appear as simple key pages?
Sorry, I've never used Adobe during a live shoot before.
I'd love for someone in the know to explain the workflow here. Thank you so much!
I'd also be interested in knowing best practices for running b-roll into the switcher. PP again? Same computer as the graphics or a seperate one?

I dont't 'know anything from Adobe that could do this.
Look at this:

Well, when I start working (should I say try to work with FCPX, activity monitor in the %processor column for FCPX jumps rapidly over 100% and reaches more than 200% ??? What the **** is that ?
200% or more is not strange. Remember that your mac has 4 cores (you say it's 3 months old, so I assume it is a new model), so 200% amounts to using 2 of these 4 cores to the max.
Regarding the question of creating a new admin user: while it sits in the same system, it may help if the problem is caused by some user-specific preferences or settings. Not likely in your case, since you seem to have reinstalled from scratch, but still it is worth a try. It takes 5 minutes and may help pinpoint the problem.

Websites, books, and other resources for learning to use Premiere Pro

What websites, books, tutorials, and other resources have you found useful for learning to use Premiere Pro?
I want to make sure that we have a comprehensive list of good resources for Premiere Pro. See this page for a list of high-quality After Effects resources that I put together; I want something like this for Premiere Pro.
I'll start. In no particular order, here are some resources that I've found valuable:
this forum (of course)
Premiere Pro Help documents and Help & Support pages in several languages
Community Help search for Premiere Pro

> I see mention above of Lynda.com, but either missed Total Training, or perhaps they have merged?
I didn't mention Lynda.com.
And, no, Total Training and Lynda.com certainly haven't merged.
Total Training has some good Premiere Pro stuff, but it's not the first place that I'd point someone for Premiere Pro.

Using Premiere Pro CS6, currently not able to capture video.

Using Premiere Pro CS6 along with Canopus ADVC100 as my capture device through a firewire port, but in the capture window, it only shows black. I've tried all different settings. I've always been able to capture in the past. I had the AOL Tech Gurus check my computer and all ports and everything is working properly. I've even switched out the firewire cable, as well as used a different ADVC100 and different firewire ports, though it still is not working. I did see video for a few seconds without sound, but it went away. When I do power up the ADVC, it immediately starts up Premiere Pro CS6, so my computer is recognizing the ADVC100. I'm wondering if something within my computer is conflicting with the capture.

Thanks cvid01 for jumping in -
Where would I see the ADVC100 as the Capture Device aside from the drop down window in Device Control where I can choose it to be the Device Control?
It's always worked with the Device Control Device showing "None". And the ADVC100 has always worked in the past with Premiere Pro CS6 for all my Captures.
Also, my Premiere Pro CS6 starts up once I power up the ADVC100. Though I have even closed the Premiere Pro CS6 after it opened up, and restarted the program.
Just wondering if the program itself has some sort of bug now in the capture window? Is there a Premiere Pro CS6 fix that will solve the issue?
Here is what my capture window shows:

Using premiere pro and replacing with after effects composition

Hi I am using premiere pro CS4.
I have created a multi camera sequence from 2 cameras, on a separate sequence. when I go to replace the time line footage with an after effects composition, after effects starts up but what I get is the footage in the after effects is from the other camera the exact time length.
what can I do to keep the correct footage from each of the cameras on the time line
Thanks
Rodney

I don't think that is possible at all. It may be a limitation on how multicam works. Since it doesn't produce genuinely separate clips, there is no way for AE to determine which one is actually being used currently. I would imagine, that you would have to insert the relevant snippet as a separate clip to get this working....

Using Premiere Pro 6 - Capturing HDV .mpegs - These can't be seen by other programs like Compressor?

I'm using XHA1's using a Canon HV20 to capture via FW to my IMAC with 10.7. I'm using Premiere Pro 6 and have been using Plural Eyes to do audio sync for the past year.
About 6 months ago when I upgraded to Plural Eyes 3 (which they don't support video thumbnail preview for HDV) I noticed my MPEG files created in Premiere Pro could not be opened in Compressor to change to Apple Pro Res or do anything else with.
So, what I would like to know is there a way of capturing to some other file format than .mpeg using an HDV preset in Premiere Pro? I do weddings every weekend with 3 cameras doing hour long ceremonies. So, audio sync is real important and being able to see those thumbnails would be great.
Finally, when I export my XML to the desktop and bring it back into to Premiere Pro it "squeeshes" the HDV footage into 4:3 aspect ratio. Which I then create a new Sequence, select all, copy and paste and now I have 2 sequences to keep track of.
I realize these are not earth shattering - but they would sure save precious hours over a weeks time while doing many repetive actions. Thanks for any advice.

I have same experience/problem:
- PluralEyes does not show HDV thumbnails
- Windows version crashes (I tryed initial version when WIN support was added)
- Premiere still needs XML export-import, so stereo audio becomes double mono audio
I'm still using PluralEyes version 2, which is at least working:
- use PluralEyes Connector to export from Premiere directly, that opens PE2 and asks you which timeline you want to sync
- when done, exit PE and it will automatickly open Premiere, import project, and highlight added bins
- grab highlighted bins and drag them to the "new folder" icon in project bin; that will create new bin and put all imported bins/clips in to that bin.
- open synced project and copy all clips and paste them in original timeline (where unsorted clips vere).
OPTIONAL: I do replace all clips than with original clips from project bin, just to get stereo audio back. After I replace all clips I delete added bins/clips, because Premiere duplicate all (it will add them every time you re-import clips, instead of knowing it is already imported). So just to keep premiere project file smaller, I remove doubled clips.
If I need to sync just some files I use Premiere CC built in syncer. But PluralEyes does resolve harder to understand clips and Premiere solution is limited by how many clips is capable of syncing. And it does not work with several video/audio tracks, but only two. At least in my case, if I try to sync more than two clips it is grayed out.
Yes, I'm dissapointed by PluralEyes3, because this was my main reason I bought licence, Only to now using version 2.

HD to SD using Premiere Pro CS4

Hi there.
I have imported AVCHD footage into Premiere Pro CS4 from my Sony HDR-SR11 and now I would like to export for DVD. The specs of the source video are:
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Pixel Depth: 32
Frame Rate: 29.97
I watched Jeff Bellune’s video on ‘Scaling HD to SD Using Premiere Pro CS4’, and replicated all export settings according to 1080i60 (please tell me if I’m wrong here) but the resulting quality it poor.
The one thing I could not replicate was the ‘Use Maximum Render Quality’. I do not have it as an option under the Fly Out Menu for the Video Settings tab.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks,
David

I'm using the trial version....
And I am considering purchasing Adobe Production Suite CS5 and just want to make sure that I will be able to export high quality SD DVD's from my AVCHD footage. I watched Jeff Bellune's video on HD to SD using Premiere Pro CS4 and it explains it all clearly but I have been unable to use the ‘Use Maximum Render Quality’ option.
So without being able to see the end product, has anyonen else done this and be willing to tell me how good the DVD's look after that import? They pretty much look awful when I use all of the settings minus the ‘Use Maximum Render Quality’ setting.
Thanks and take care,
David

How to remove shine or glare from face ( forehead cheeks and nose) using Premiere Pro?

Hi there,
I need to remore some glare from a person's face during a footage. This person has a darker skin tone and the lights we had in the room reflected on his forehead and nose. Can I do that using Premiere Pro or any other adobe software? I would prefere to watcha video tutorial or read some step by step instructions. If you know where I can find the answer to this I would apreaciate it !
Thanks

If you're just needing to bring down the highlights in some hot spots on the face, then using the Curves effect or the Three-Way Color Corrector to just pull down the highlights would be an easy thing to do. Since you probably only want to target the face and not modify the rest of the scene, you'd probably be better off doing this in After Effects because of its superior masking and adjustment layer features.
Feel free to come on over to the After Effects forum to ask for specifics. Here are a couple of movies that show how to target just a face with an effect:
using motion tracking and rotoscoping
using Roto Brush

Can you capture video from the internet, using premiere pro cc?

trying to capture video from the internet, using premiere pro cc, is that possible?
also - it keeps saying "video capture offline" - any solutions for that?

I am going to go out on a limb and say that while it may be against the YouTube terms of service to download or scrape a video off of their service, there are times that I really don't care since it is for my personal use. Providing myself or my wife with entertainment that she can watch or listen to on her smartphone while on an airplane, or in a car traveling down the road, just doesn't bother my moral compass. Doesn't make it twitch in the least.
Perhaps I am wrong. Perhaps I shouldn't do it. Tough. I do, and will continue to do so until the Google police come knocking on my door.
This is pretty much the same argument that they tried to kill the VCR with. The simple act of time shifting was something that was considered wrong, and illegal, until people came to their senses.
As for the editing capability, you might be surprised at the ways it is possible to download video that works just fine for what I use it for. Premiere Pro has no problems allowing me to edit out the parts I don't like, or just aren't funny, and the quality really doesn't suffer much at all.
Now, with the exception of something I did for my two year old Great Niece, I have never used any video that I have downloaded for anything except a tutorial, or in her case, a Sesame Street song I used when I shot video of me reading her the Sesame Street book that I purchased.
Would it be wrong to post downloaded video, intact or edited, for public consumption? Sure it would. No question about it.
But please do not assume that everyone downloading video from the Internet is doing so for nefarious purposes, and I promise not to assume everyone is a perfect angel and is following all the rules.

Is there a way we can edit and improve existing youtube videos by using premiere pro? Just simple changes like having professional looking opening and closing credits?

Assuming you do not have access to the "original" video/project and the YouTube video is the only copy, there is a method. Try "YouTube Downloader" which is a free software that allows you to download clips from YouTube as .mp4 files. You can then edit with Premiere, and re-encode again for upload to YouTube. Just keep in mind that you are re-compressing the video so there will be some quality loss. The better the quality of the original, the better the copy will hold up.

Burn DVD using Premiere Pro 2.0

I use premiere pro
2.0 on my PC with Windows 7. I can edit and save a video project, but I can't burn it to a DVD.
Is there a burn program in 2.0, or is there another burning program that will accept premiere
pro 2.0 projects? I can import video segments into the Microsoft DVD burning program in
Windows 7, but it will not accept a Premiere Pro project.

If the issue is that PrPro does not see your burner, there might well be other programs "hooking" the burner. Do you get any error messages?
If Win7does not see your burner, then it is likely that either the firmware, or the driver used, are out of date - or both.
If Win7 does see the burner, then what you will need to do (depending on the answer to the first question), would be to Burn to Folder from PrPro. Then, use the free utility, ImgBurn, to do the physical burn to disc.
Good luck,
Hunt

Problem importing VOB files using Premiere Pro CC

Something must have changed between CS6 & CC as far as importing VOB files from non-DRM DVDs.
When I import the VOB files from a DVD using CS6, the import seems to go fine.
But when I import the VOB files from the same DVD using CC, the video info Frame Size and Aspect Ratio of the last VOB files comes in "wrong" when it should be the same as all of the other files.
It always seems to be the last file and it always seems to be off by the same amount.
I can Interpret Footage back to the same aspect ratio as the rest of the VOB files, but I cannot seem to fix the incorrect framesize.
I am using Premiere Pro CC Version 7.2.1(4).
Thanks in advance for any help.

Try this instead.
