• What is the best laptop for video editing that task my money?

  Hello

  I have Lenovo laptop, I used it for 5 years, until now, I see that it is not good enough to make the work of video editing. So now I think to buy a new laptop for this case, but I am not confident about my knowledge on the area of the laptop. Everyone here knows or has a good knowledge on laptop, please give me a serious opinion, thank you.

  Hi jespong,

  Thanks for posting.

  The first starting point would be to look at the minimum specifications required by the video editing program, and then start looking for laptops with these specifications.  Then look for those that have the best specifications requested by the program and settle for something in between.

  According to your budget, it would be better to buy something that has more than request the program you always want to have the best.

  Kind regards

• IMac with Fusion Hard Drive - HD Setup for video editing

  Hello

  I just ordered a new iMac with the following specifications just for video editing:

  iMac 27 "Quad - Core Intel Core i7 3.5 GHz

  8 GB RAM

  3 disc Fusion to - [I] I got this configuration with the merger of 3 TB for much due to the fact that it was a mixed open-box, otherwise I would of went with an SSD. [/ I]

  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780MX with 4 GB of GDDR5

  My question is: what is the best way for me to set up my hard drives (Cache OS, programs, file, media, media, projects, previews, exports, etc.) for editing with this iMac and hard drives that I own?

  I currently use a combination of a HD Lacie Raid - 0 6 TB and 1.5 TB OWC FW - 800 Raid-0 for video editing on my MBP that has a 750 GB HD SSD and oem.

  iMac installation:

  3 to Fusion: operating system, programs, parallel

  6 TB Lacie Raid: video/media storage disk

  1 TB OWC USB 3 external:

  Several OWB FW - 800 external references:

  I might consider to get a 1 to Lacie thunderbolt HD, though it will have a significant advantage.

  I'm intent on obtaining a raid of the Rainbow-8050 somewhere down the line, but that is out of my budget right now.

  In addition, I already know the standard of the guidelines for the use of the disc which is in the link below, but since the iMac cannot be configured with multiple HDs, I'm looking for suggestions of knowledge of people with this type of installation.

  Thank you

  I'm already a user of Areca (32 terabytes on Raid6). As you have a capable TB2 iMac that I would wait for the next version of the Areca 5080 TB2.

  I suggest you a configuration of data 3 step; for example the project files on an external drive and Fusion cache on external SSD and based on external Raid 0 and as the third step one backup (BR, external drives, LTO, basically everything what is available or practical).

• 2016 budget PC for video editing and animation

  I am building PC mainly for video editing and animation (suit Adobe, Maya, etc.).

  I7 6700 k, z170 pro gaming, 16 GB of RAM Gskill, evo Samsung 256 gb SSD, 2 TB WD Blue, Dell u2515h.

  I'm really confused, choose the budget videocard, CPU cooler and wardrobe.

  Budget: Around $ 1500 (Indian Rs 100000.) Intend to buy this month.

  Note: With good performance, I want dead silent.

  Thanks in advance.

  I have not read any problem of heating with the gtx 1060, only with the reference cooler on the rx 480. the series gtx 1000 added support for 4 k hdr and wcg, if you don't need those then the older gtx cards are always great to use. the 1060 gtx may be 40-50% faster than the gtx 960 and both are rated 120 watts. If your creative work who need a lot of power gpu, the gtx 1060 with a mid to low workload has a better chance to keep fans and be completely silent. I don't know if the model bill recommends is able to turn off the fan, but with a design unique its radiator fan will not be able to run passive as a biggest fan of double or triple design card. If you are more concerned with budget and plan on only using a few gpu accelerated fx and only HD projects, the gtx 750 ti 2 GB or 950 models 2 GB may be powerful enough for your needs. you would have to see what are the prices where you shop, here all the series 900 gtx cards cost too close to the gtx 1060. I don't know when will be released the gtx 1050, but it can help to lower prices on 900 gtx cards. the gtx 1050 can be around or just below the gtx 960 for the performance.

  the corsair website says the 100R will support 150mm height max cpu cooler, so it should be 90 to 120mm air coolers. you will need to check the dimensions of the cpu cooler you are looking for, to make sure it fits. It would also be good to search online if others use the casing and cooler together. cryorig h7 seems to be 145 mm in height, then he could adapt. I don't know the price for coolers here, so you will need to see those that fit your budget and look at reviews for cooling and noise levels to find the best. If you went with a larger case, it would be able to hold a 140mm cooler air and be quieter. coolers liquid AIO got better when they first came out and last usually a few years before the pump breaks down, or he flees. If an air cooler does not, he would need a new fan and would not risk damaging any material. If the case was too thin to allow a good air cooler, then the liquid would be appropriate, but I would choose replace the case first. the corsair 100r site says it will hold only a 120mm cooler liquid. It should be a 240mm or more large cooler liquid for a chance to be quieter than a good air cooler.

• Mac Pro: more RAM or better video card for video editing?

  I'm going to buy a new Mac Pro for video editing in first Pro CC, but can't decide if I should ad more cores, more RAM or a better graphics card.

  Intend to change the RED 4 K files.

  Hello

  I'm certinaly not an engineer who can comment on how applications are written and how can hearts of processor they can write effectly, but there has been a lot of comments to the Mac Pro (new), and to answer your question, based on what I read, there were comments that the 8 basic model is good for video editing - not too , nor too little.

  Being an editor, I'd always put my money to get the best graphics cards and the largest amount of RAM that you can afford.  For work, we've been specing on new models and it was the 'formula' we follow.  With the exception of the RAM, sounds like once you buy, your clerks to the material with the new machines.

  I found the review below to be a great resource that can help answer your question.

• Portable light for video editing?

  Hello

  I'm going on a long trip to Asia where I'll do a video on the go a lot. I'm open to Mac or PC, with a preference for PC. Can anyone advise me on the best weight for the compromise of performance?

  I thought I'd go for a Dell XPS 13 with this configuration:

  • 3rd generation Intel® Core™ i7-3537U processor (4 M Cache, up to 3.1 GHz)
  • Windows 8, 64-bit, English
  • 13.3 "FHD 1080 p
  • 8GB¹ DDR3 Memory SDRAM at 1600 MHz
  • 256GB Solid State Drive
  • Intel HD 4000
  • 2.99 lbs

  I'm a bit wary of the Intel HD 4000. The rest looks pretty good to me, what do you think?

  I don't need first-class performance, but I don't want to fall asleep on my Pad Thai in waiting for the rendering of base effects.

  Thank you very much

  1. A laptop is always a compromise and can not outstanding performance.
  2. Only 8 GB of memory is a serious drawback, 16 GB would be much better.
  3. Only a single SSD is not enough. You need at least one other 7200 RPM (e) SATA disk or drive USB3 for media.
  4. You need a power outlet to power the additional disk and one for the laptop, because the battery is not the last long enough under the heavy.
  5. The Intel HD 4000 card STINKS for video editing, especially compared to 1 + GB VRAM and nVidia with CUDA.
  6. The i7-3537u is only a dual core 2.0 GHz.

  The best you can expect is a system that is part of the bottom 5%, at least 30-50 x slower than a fast system. Be aware that when a fast system needs an hour to export a timeline, this laptop will need three or four days for the same work. Another reason, that you need from this socket. See reference PPBM5

• What are the best setting of calibration screen for video editing, if you are shooting indoors, without natural light?

  What are the best setting of calibration screen for video editing, if you are shooting indoors, without natural light?

  Not really related to Prem Pro, however:

  Neutral gray scale to set the brightness (white saturation) and contrast (black crush).

  Conveniently located:

  Gamma: 2.2

  White point: 6500K (5800K with ambient lighting)

  Brightness: 100-120 (cd/m)

  Use a calibration device like SpyderElite (above applies). Grade with a neutral gray background low light level - easier on the eyes.

  Some additional information:

  First items 12 and some other old versions must run under XP. If you really want to buy an older version, I see that they are available at some retailers like Amazon.

  If you end up buying a new computer, your options will be first items 13, Premiere Pro CS6, or subscribe to the creative cloud single app or another plan. Be sure to check the system requirements first.

• Need recommendation for laptop - for video editing

  I'm trying to looking for a new laptop and need recommendations based on how I use the laptop.  I produce videos and mainly use the following programs: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Encore DVD.  I also use other software such as AutoFX PGE7.0 of photo editing.

  I currently have a HP Pavilion which is about 5 years old.  This office has the following specifications:

  HP Pavilion PU131AV / a1050y, Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.20 GHz, 2 GB RAM, Windows XP MCE, SP3 32-bit, Nvidia GeForce 6600

  I believe that with a new laptop, I was able to create my videos more efficiently.  If you have any input as to what I need in a laptop for my specific purpose, please let me know.

  Thank you very much

  Angela

  ``````````````````````````````````````````
  old computer: HP Pavilion PU131AV / a1050y, Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.20 GHz, 2 GB RAM, Windows XP MCE, SP3 32-bit, Nvidia GeForce 6600
  new computer: HPE-180 t, Windows 7 Pro (64 bit), Nvidia GeForce GT 220, Intel Core i7 - 930 quad-core CPU @ 2.80 GHz, 8 GB of RAM

  For what you are doing you need all the horsepower you can gather. You have not specified a budget and with what you're trying to do, I don't think that it would be useful to think of anything less than a thousand dollars. You need at least 4 GB of memory and preferably 8. You need a 64 bit version of Windows 7. You need a quad core or i7 processor. Regarding the size of the screen, it's a matter of personal choice, but I don't see how you can get in with less than a 15-inch screen. In respect to the HP products you can consider the urge again, but the problem is the lack of an internal optical drive (CD/DVD type).

  HP is running a special offer on the dv6t Quad model with an i7 processor, $ 999 with a free upgrade to 4 GB of RAM and a concert full of video memory. While your P4 3.2 was the killer at a time where it was released, the dv6t Quad run rings around her, particularly in Photoshop. Make sure that you use a recent version of Photoshop with 64-bit and support multi-core. Also be sure to get the 7200 RPM hard drive, because it makes a big difference in video editing.

  Good luck and enjoy.

• Number of CPU cores required (Virtual vs. physical) for video editing 4 K Prime Minister?

  Hi all.

  About to start my own business / video editing. I'm doing a customized version of PC. I am considering a motherboard very processor dual Xeon with maybe 64 GB of RAM and a certified Quadro 4 GB or 8 GB GPU. The 4 k I intend to work on commercials under 15 long minutes, will take place with an average of 3 video tracks and 2 audio tracks.

  When it comes to running Adobe Premier Pro 5.5 or 6 (for 4K editing video and rendering), I read that it is recommended to have 12 hearts in each of the two processors. (The PDF I read was an official guide of 2015 from Intel: "Hardware Performance Guide: serious 4 K editing ')

  Now, I wonder if this figure of 12 cores per processor is related to PHYSICAL cores, or ALL hearts including VIRTUAL cores (.. .If it is referred to all the hearts, so I just need to buy two 6 core processors, giving a total of 24 cores can be used.) Big price difference between a 6 core CPU and a 12 core...

  The Xeon series which will be compatible with my MB is the 2600 CPU of the E5 v3 family. Stories of advice or that popular horror...!

  Paul.

  guide intel suggests probably 12 real hearts, possibly the v3 of E5-2680. It would be double Xeon 24/48 virtual hearts.

  software Adobe does not need the features on the quadro, using the version of game/Office nvidia gtx can help save money.

  If you need 10 bit out for the color correction, view maps of mfg as blackmagic, aja and others may be a better option.

  have you already bought the motherboard?

  Hardware requirements may vary for different types of media and project as multi-cam configurations. codecs like h264/5 are very difficult for the processor process and the gpu should be handled, but first does not currently support gpu accelerated encoding/decoding. This is what can lead to dual xeons as intel recommends. Dual cpu also have large overhead, reducing their combined processing power. Another reason why intel may recommend the 12 core dual processor. If you use the less demanding codecs such as prores or dnxhr, UC must be as powerful, and can even be possible to use a single processor. Some people transcode their sequences of difficult codecs like h264/5 prores or dnxhr as a whole work rather than buy a more powerful system to manage h264/5 when editing.

  Hackers Page - Video Codecs

  Intel PDF: "Hardware Performance Guide: serious 4 K editing."

  It is important to note that software engineers need to write specific code to take advantage of some features like multiple nuclei (multithreading) and virtual cores (hyper-threading). Consumer applications such as Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe After Effects already take full advantage of these features.

  If you check that the tests carried out here: Tweakers Page - decide between one processor or dual CPU and read through the discussions here and other websites, you will find the results against this last sentence. software Adobe has long had problems fully multi-threads, the first is not as bad as some of the other adobe programs but can still have problems.

• Correspondence of time remapping with ramps for video editing of first CC 2015/output

  I would like to ask experts, which will be the best workflow...

  Location:

  I have the project with 50 + video segments where I have to slow down part of the clip to highlight some details (in my case - CIRC. enduro motorcycle - need to slow down the part where is visible some technical riding etc.).

  I use bulit Premiere Pro CC 2015 in the tools of the keyframe to select two points between where I change the speed for example at 50%. First has nice handles around the keyframes where I can create smooth ramp, so the change in speed is graduated.

  Insofar as simple here s

  But the first will not do the same with audio track associated with each clip. In the audio is for his example of the motorcycle.

  I need to have his original when the video is playing at 100% speed and its different from "lower pitch" when is slowed down and once again normal sound when is 100% video speed on the end.

  So I edited each audio segment to the points of the time remap keyframes, manually set the speed of the middle section and - it s horrible. Video slows gently while it is quite annoying audio changes.

  I need to make the same effect as what we were doing with Ribbon old VCRs in television production - smooth audio ramp corresponding to the video and return to full speed.

  As my knowledge about hearing is close to zero - I would like to ask at the front to start learning - I can do up in the hearing? What I have to do it every time from scratch or can I use existing keys from first images? Anyway how above 'automatic '? What workflow you have advice when I need to do it quite often many of these clips?

  Thank you much for the help.

  P. S. tried to find out, after a while with the help chat online too...

  Most of the discussions and tutorials is very old - there may be some new features in CC 2015 in order to do compare with 2011 toolset or almost. And in many video tutorials only covered - they talk about audio at all. But for audio track that I use, is the audio very good.

  Here is an example of a part of the timeline. I needed this project to do quickly, I decided to stretch the entire audio segments to match the new length of the video. It s not correct but it sounds better then it divides in three parts with a slow speed in the middle. Just to match audio speed changes in the Panel of video editing

  

  Not sure about the exchange of workflow with first for this type of effect.

  However the hearing can make the effect of change of speed/not very well using effects/time and Pitch/Pitch Bender. This uses a waveform envelope on with keyframes to vary the height must therefore ideal for your needs. In order to see where on the waveform, you need to place keyframes without doubt the best way is to place markers on audio in first at beginning and end of each ramp. These should be done through when you export audio in Audition where you should be able to match Pitch Bend keyframes to markers.
