How to get Premiere Pro CS4 rendering HDV again?

Embarrassing problem:

Use PP CS4 (as part of the master collection) for several months, no problem. Details of the system below. This morning, I made a 1 HR 1080i HDV sequences 29.97df (AVCHD, Blu - ray) m4v format. I've done many other makes this same sequence, with no problems (MPEG 2, etc.). Completed successfully rendering. So, I decided that I would study the output and possibly adjust the brightness. I tried to import the PP. any sequence, he showed as a screen orange without video or audio. I assumed that this meant that the PP could not interpret the video rendering, which seemed strange (it seemed to be a reasonable-AVCHD with audio PCM format).

Like it wasn't a big problem, I simply deleted the imported clip and decided to make an another record in HDV MPEG-2 format. (I have I'm going to do a standard DVD also and wanted images MPEG-2.) I started to export standard (MPEG-2 1 - pass VBR with 384K audio preset, even the one I had used many times before) and nothing happened. Adobe Media Encoder hung on the first image with no progress. I tried to stop the queue and delete current file. SOUL hanging there. I had to use the Task Manager to kill him. I then closed PP and rebooted the system. Open pp with sequence again and I tried export again in the same way. Same results.

I tried a few times with different preset settings - whenever TEA would hang and he made no progress. Whenever I couldn't cancel, but had to kill using Task Manager.

Then, I decided to do a new rendering part of the sequence just to see if that would make a difference. I put a small bench and deleted the files of rendering by using the option menu sequence. A red lines as expected. Sequence hit + effects on a work area. Nothing. Render hung with 0.02% full. Tried to cancel. No dice. You have to use the Task Manager to kill PP.

Tried a bunch of times with different segments of the sequence. Every time I did, I would be cleanly restart the system to ensure that nothing has been left in a strange state.

If at this point, I could not export or go to MPEG-2 or AVCHD.

Next: I create a new test project dummy with a film DV, import, apply effects and rendering. No problem. Export also works very well.

The same project, create sequence HDV and import the small clip of HDV video. Plays very well. However, cannot make no effect and cannot export. (Same problem as before: hangs.)

HERE IS WHERE I AM NOW:

PP works fine in every way except that I can't make any effect of HDV footage and I can't export HDV to MPEG-2 or AVCHD format. I can make and export DV SD to SD (AVI etc) formats with no problems. I was also able to export the HDV SD AVI film (but only without effects - if I tried to apply effects in PP, they wouldn't render-hang as before).

Here's what I see:

ImporterProcessServer.exe hangs in the background (Task Manager) as PPProHeadless and processcoordinator. None of them shows no activity of the CPU. Somehow, the HD processing pipeline is defective (locked). There seems to be no problem for SD DV rendering.

Here's what I did to try to solve this problem:

-Downloaded and updated to latest version of DirectX (9 c for XP)

-Downloaded and updated for more recent QuickTime

-Ran CHKDSK on the system and A / V drives (no problem found)

-Reinstalled PP, AE, SOUL and modules involved in the original game from DVD - ROM

-Downloaded all updates of PP, AE, Adobe's SOUL and installed

-Deleted all files of the user for the PP, SOUL, etc. (i.e. under Documents and Settings) and permit software to re - create.

-Delete the Cache of media and permit PP to recreate (which she did successfully). Also moved Cache of media to a few different readers.

-Double amount of virtual memory available (it was a shot in the water because everything had worked perfectly before)

-Rebuild the cache plugin (now SHIFT key)

-Checked for own log events (in the Windows Event Viewer)

-Check the logs of other SOUL and PP without finding something interesting

-Checked the nVidia card has latest drivers (it did)

-Services checked to make sure minimum of background tasks are running

-Checked to make sure that the disks have enough free space

-Sacrifice a goat to the God of the Moon at midnight

(Kidding on the last one of them, but just barely.)

I'm open to suggestions, but I'll be skeptical of suggestions that the equipment or system is at fault, given that PP has run so well before, and given that the computer does not show any other problems. My hunch is that in some way something damaged the MainConcept HD codecs, but I guess that uninstall and re-install the software Adobe must have re-installed them, and which did not help. I don't know of another way to test them, or to re - install just this component. It is confusing that the SD treatment works very well.

I'm frankly at a loss and have spent 8 + hours trying to understand this...

Thanks for help that someone can give!

    Hello

    If you had installed Premiere Pro CS6 using a disc, you can use the same disk to install Encore CS6.

  • Slow rendering in Premiere Pro CS4 (with a fast computer?)

    Hello people on the Adobe Forums,.

    I hope someone can help me with this issue, it has been bothering me a very long time now and this week I have to make a decision, or solve the problem and keep this configuration, or spend the money for a new processor (i5 750) and a new motherboard. But I think that this computer must do better, then he doesn't. I have the following configuration:

    WD 1 TB (SATA) USB (hdd extern)

    WD 250 GB SATA (7200 RPM, I think)

    So I don't understand the problem, first is very slow on my computer... Rendering of a piece of 5 min of just a film randomly takes like 3 hours! Just now, I found some things that I shot with my cell phone, it like 10 sec 1 frame! On most pc with this vice versa!

    Marinus,

    My compliments on the way in which you have documented your problem! Very, very good. I wish that more people would take your example.

    Unfortunately, as you can see from the results PPBM4, your PC is a serious lack power. About 80 times slower than the top ensuring an and more specifically on the MPEG encoding. This means that, with your XDCAM, your machine hardware fights like h * l to get anything it to be delivered. Even with SD AVI material, it would be a struggle with these specifications.

    The only solution I see is to get a new machine. To get a rough hint of what you face. Watch Adobe Forums: how to build PC? and realize that the version of the budget is the minimum for DV and HDV, possibly material from XDCAM-EX, but for AVCHD and DSLR equipment you would not drop below the economic model. In addition, if you go to the hyarware forum and press the "View" tab at the top of the page, there a dropdown menu with several items that might interest you. http://forums.Adobe.com/community/premiere/hardware_forum?view=discussions&start=0

    BTW, on your new system you want to clean. With all the running processes, it adds to the burden and you could do with much less overhead.

  • Slow playback in Premiere Pro CS4 (how to reduce res preview?)

    Hi everyone, I was just wondering how to reduce the resolution of the reading/preview while3 editing in Premiere Pro CS4? I'm editing 720 p video (.mov format, that's what my camera takes pictures, so I don't think I can change that). All I see when I right click in the source monitor is "quality > high, rough, automatic. Is there anything else that I can choose? (kind of in aftermath, where you can set it to 1/2, 1/4, etc.). I searched the internet for the better part of the day and what I found is that 'quality' menu I mentioned earlier.

    It is always very slow to look on the 'project', and it doesn't look like it's much more of a difference in quality. Now, my laptop isn't exactly the rendered beast that I wish it were, but it can handle 720 p [slowly] in after effects so I think it should work first too.

    Thank you!

    PS: Anyone of you experts think it would be a good computer for NLE / rendering of effects?

    http://www.TigerDirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7192259 & SKU = B69-1277

    CS5 offers specific options like 1/2 and 1/4.  Earlier versions offered only full, project and Auto.

    A new computer is probably in order.  Your link isn't a bad option.  (Even if you need to add at least two drives more.)

  • Premiere Pro CS4 question on how to integrate into my website

    I have a simple question...

    I used the Premiere Pro CS4 to create an Avi file in video.

    And now I need to integrate it into Dreamweaver CS4 to download on my site.

    I never have, so I have no idea on how to do it.

    Could someone send me a tutorial or a site with explanations.

    Thank you

    Mathieu,

    I can't answer for first, but if you have, you can use your file avi, and flash flv export file.

    Still includes templates for use with your file menu flash and different sizes of flash export dimensions

    Depending on the size you want your final file and to be.

    Create a folder with everything for you, including the index.html file and all you have to do is transfer the file

    your directory of Web sites and the hyperlink. Voila!

    Sorry, I can't point to specific tutorials for the moment.

  • Export of parameters (Premiere Pro CS4 with Matrox)

    Premiere Pro CS4

    Canon XHG1 camera (HDV/Mini-DV/NTSC)

    Card Matrox RT. X 2

    HP's Z800 with Intel Xeon 2.4 GHz, 12 GB of RAM and running Windows 7

    I have experience with digital video editing in first, export up to 40 minutes the videos (which took maybe 2 hours for export), but the last version I used was perhaps first 7 and I didn't have the Matrox card (and used a much less powerful than this computer). I used as just a level of consumption, not the big Canon camera. Now, I try to export the video and there are more choices that I had before, and it seems that the time estimated to export is quite high, despite a good machine and the Matrox card.

    So my question is, is there anywhere a chart that shows what settings to use for the particular output you are looking for? For example, what should I choose for the web that's enough quality but not a giant file? What should I choose if I want to make a DVD? Is it possible to export directly to a DVD, if you do not manipulate the video at all? I said, I should be able to use the Matrox card to reduce the time to export, but it seems that at least 5 times the length of the video export anything.

    I guess a question important here is: what is the normal amount of time I should expect something to take to the export? I have a 2 hour video that just needs to be transferred from mini DV tapes and engraved on a DVD - no necessary effect. Time to export the lowest estimate I can get is about 10 hours, and I don't know what that looks like in terms of quality when finished.

    In the future I'll do more often in short (2 minutes or less) video for the web, so time for export should be short, but I would still like to know what are the best settings and how much time it should take.

    I hope this makes sense - thanks for your help!

    The major bottleneck appears indeed disk I/O.Even if you have two physical disks in the system, Win7 consider them as a single disc, because they are attacked as a raid1. For performance optimal disc I suggest you to add at least two physical disks + 7200 RPM (so SAS or SATA, the latter cheaper, the first with a best performance), move the pagefile and projects and the cache of media in one of the discs and the other disk media. Which will improve your results significantly in my opinion.

    Then have a look at the two latest guides here, storage and tuning: How to get the best from a PC? Some guides...

    The setting guide was written for Vista, but the Blackviper site now also has a guide for Win7 services.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 hungs on importing or opening files

    Hello!

    I have a serious problem with Premiere Pro CS4. I have install on Windows 8, everything goes well. I create the first project and import mov files. First time I tried h284 Canon DSLR raw file. He played really bad. Secondly, I try AVID DNxHD mov, plays too slow, but everything is normal. But shortly after the first absolutely freezing. I restart, try to import the file or open the project with imported files (no matter what codec it is), it freezes again as before. And nothing helped. I tried to reinstall it about 5 times, it has no effect. What is c? Please, help me!

    P.S. I don't know it worked on Windows 7 with MOV of the Canon camera, but I was working with other codecs.

    Update. I found this problem described appears only with files DNxHD. regular H.284 causes different problem - during the first window loses focus (when I go to explorer, for example) first crashes, it's the window disappears and only strange red line stays on the screen. WTF?...

  • Premiere Pro CS4 video fills the whole frame.

    My Windows Movie Maker has stopped working so I bought it and I regret it completely. WMM is so simple and straightforward. I don't want a software that takes a genius to use. Even I could design a better software.

    In any case, for some reason when I import a video on my project it fills the screen. It is black boarder thick around her. I did research it and I saw a lot of things on the elongation or something like that. But I'm not a computer genius and adobe is expected of course as everyone else so I was wondering if someone could help me. Thank you.

    Heres a pic so it can help.

    Welcome to the forum.

    When its assets are either zoom-in, or have black bands around them, in the timeline, it is usually because the predefined sequence/project does not have the 100% source footage.

    In CS4, when you create a new project, they will set some preferences global and then invited to create a new sequence (chronology). It is here that we will need to know the full specs. their source files, and then select a predefined sequence to match these assets 100%. There are many Presets and then one 'special', the desktop Preset. What makes this 'special', is that you can set almost all the parameters for costume/game, such as the size of the image (this is where you are off), FPS, etc.

    If you can tell us the complete specifications. of your source footage, anyone can tell you exactly what Preset to choose, or how to customize the desktop Preset to match. That will fill your frame perfectly.

    PrPro from CS4 has the ability to have different sequences for different sequences, in the same project.

    Now, WMM is well enough designed to deal with standard WMV images, is very limited on the one hand, but on the other hand, simple to use - many, many fewer choices to make. It's 'standard', or nothing.

    When you have explored the power of PrPro and get used to the implementation of your footage, you will come to love him. The 'power' is intoxicating, and operations will become second nature.

    I highly recommend a great book, Adobe Classroom in a Book for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, Adobe Press. The author you will return you though first the concept of using a NLE (of Non-linear editing), then give you a tour of GUI (Graphical User Interface) program. Then, although the use of resources and projects, you will return the reader through all aspects of the process of with PrPro CS4 edition. When you are finished, there will be very little, that you will not have been exposed to. Curt spends a good part of the time by saying the drive all on the 'why' and not only the "how".

    PrPro-Wiki has a great FAQ section on how to do most of the things in CS4 and should be bookmarked.

    Believe me, the operation will change from 'rocket science' to 'second nature '.

    Good luck

  • Degradation of JPEGs imported into Premiere Pro CS4 in steps

    For this I downloaded 2 JPEG files, I don't know if the scale applied by the forum software is just for display in the message, I hope that JPEG files can be downloaded as they have been downloaded.

    In any case, I make a documentary, he made abundant use of computer images captured in JPEG format using the Microsoft Vista cutting tool.

    The first JPEG is a real snip, while JPEG was introduced in Premiere Pro CS4 and I did another captures the workspace.

    It's progressively worse within the PrPro.

    PrPro window in the top center shows how PrPro JPEG format after importation.

    This shows a degradation.

    PrPro window top right shows how PrPro JPEG format after the addition of the sequence on the top layer of video and it has more degradation, in particular it vertically down by comparison with the first of these 2 screens.

    When I do a test of the 1 4 seconds of this sequence generation, the JPEG is unreadable.

    It is perhaps in part because of the square pixels computer video versus PAL rectangular pixels, but I don't think it's history because of the increase in degradation. The ability to present with 1.333 pixels using rather than the square does not solve the problem.

    I used Windows Movie Maker and Windows Live Movie Maker to create JPEGs which this JPEG video files and basically what they translate with only a tiny decline, output files .wmv 1080 HD, Movie Maker gives only intertwined but Live Movie Maker gives progressive, so I think.

    If you import these .wmv files and place on the top layer of the sequence that they also get murdered in PrPro.

    Tool Vista capture is to save JPEG files as RGB 24 bits and Gimp color evoke the color in sRGB profile.

    Is it possible to get RGB JPEG processed correctly in PrPro?

    Thank you.

    I have download the sequence of parameters you will see here are for interlaced HDTV 50, but also my video resource only for this sequence, I found is progressive better so I'll start by creating a new sequence to match the video resource base. The interlaced stuff was just because my vid cam creates interlaced AVCHD but all these vid files have been used in previous projects and the output has been set to 1080 progressive

    -----------------------

    your project now

    1440 x 1080 50 Hz 25 fps, 16:9 (anamorphic-1, 333) - problem of language from me... That's right 25 frames per second?

    XDCAM-ex, 24.4 fps, 1920 x 1080, 50 Hz.  -Once again, language prob... It's 24.4 fps?

    Download bad example? looks intertwined for me (50 Hz), but I'm a little confused because I do not work with pal and do not (your) language. How you can know more than one language is beyond my comprehension!

    Anway, was this snack one mistake and you are really going to use progressive? You can download jpg of this progressive file info if it was a mistake?

    progressive should say something like "fields = no, no field, progressive, or square pixel.

    lets get this project directly first defining... cause, you might be better to create your project settings "custom / desktop" instead of a "Preset"...

    especially with your video in 1920 x 1080 instead of 1440 x 1080... you want to make your project, 1920 x 1080, 1440 x 1080 anamorphic and not.  But first lets be sure if your video is interlaced or progressive you want in the project... then you will make the project to match images and then after that in the face of AN image and you should be set to go

    IM understand everything so far, seem however there is 1 simple function, I can't understand.


    On a PC, how do you get the metadata Panel to display in the monitor?

    IM repeatedly told (on a Mac that is...):

    Click on window

    Scroll down and select "metadata" to display the metadata Panel in the monitor.

    On the PC, (windows 7 64 bit which is..) Metadata is not in the drop-down window, however.

    Actually, theres lots of options in the drop-down windows on the mac in tutorials, which are not in the drop-down list of window on my PC version.

    Ive climbed throughout the program by going to each Panel menu (such as the monitor menu) as:

    Edit > Preferences

    and the project settings menu

    to be honest... I can not even find the WORD metadata, anywhere in a menu of Final Cut Pro.

    It's called something else?

    The PC version is not it?

    I know that I should do something simple/stupid and fake. Can someone help me please? Thank you

    There is also a menu of "whirlwind down" (small triangle) in the project bin which allows you t o implement the display of the metadata.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 is quickly eating my hard drive!

    Hey all,.

    So, I was working on a video with my trial version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. I initially had 28 GB on my internal hard drive on the left. After you import a bunch of videos and their abutment, I noticed that kept first in line with some videos again and again. I didn't think much, because my source files (where I save the .prproj and video files) are on a drive terabyte external hard. When I finished my project, I go to my computer and see that my internal hard drive has suddenly been reduced to 3.1 GB! I don't know where the other 25 GB disappeared.

    What exactly does first only when he says it's the video compliant?
