• I need a definite answer for the use of Premiere Pro CS4 to work with .m2ts and .mts files

  I have a Canon Vixia HF20 and a Sony HDR-XR350V.  The Canon gives me. The MTS files and the Sony product. M2TS files.  What should I do to be able to work with these files in Premiere Pro?  I sought and obtained that I'll need to buy a codec.  But there are two types of is going to be good with a codec files?

  Also, what are the steps to getting started?  Buy the codec, load the codec... Are there other measures to work with files in first?

  I'm sorry about the basic questions, I'm a photographer!  I've never worked with video before, and it's HARD!

  Thank you for your help,

  CS5 has native support for AVCHD... for CS4, I think that you must convert to HDV (or, perhaps, to buy a commercial CODEC to install)

• What size a SSD need me for media Cache in Premiere Pro

  Hi all

  I wonder how great an ssd, I need for my cache of media in first pro. I'll just use the ssd for media cache and nothing else. What is usually a good size?

  All the best

  Kevin

  Interesting question.

  It depends on how many times you clean.

  If you are before an a whole project to a person of time as I am, and your projects are not two hours long feature films and you restore ove and above, then you should be OK with 256G.

  I just looked and the file cache and preview my Premiere Pro are only taking up to 50 GB for now. (Half a dozen projects worth of cache)

  My After Effects cache is only 35 GB. That said, I don't have to make my Premiere Pro projects very often because I try to stick to hardware accelerated effects.

• Media cache files: first Elements 9 with SSD

  Hello you lovely people from Adobe.

  I apologize if this has been asked before, if so please could someone direct me to an answer?

  I have the first Elements 9 on Windows 7. My question is quite simple: my new shiny SSD becomes full of temporary files to the location of 'Files of Cache C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\Media' every time that I'm working on a project.  I put all the other elements of the cache that I can see in 'Préférences' on my mechanical drive, but I'm scared to see this folder filling with large files on my SSD. Apart from the useless reads and writes, it will be filled in no time. It seems in Premiere Pro, you can send this file to an external drive, but I can't find this option in Premiere Elements.

  Please tell me there is a way to move the media cache of the file to another drive than C:\ directory?

  Thanks in advance

  The answer is that you need answers to Premiere Elements for questions of Premiere Elements.

  Standardized audio files (cfa and pek) are stored in the media Cache files folder. By default, this folder is located in Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 64bits.

  Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements / 10 (if 10 is your version). You set the save location for media Cache files folder in first things Editor workspace Edit Menu/preferences/Scratch disks as well as 'Media Cache' category.

  The respected video files (CMPD) are accessible via the first elements Editor workspace Edit Menu/preferences/Media and its area of media Cache database. You will find a Clean up to a certain limit set and clear them. The real files (with a .mcdb file extension) can be found via the path in this field. This seems to be a static situation.

  Render the content of the timeline to get the best possible overview to read the back of the chronology of the content in the box monitor edition preview files are stored in the folder of files Adobe Premiere elements previews. By default, this folder is located in Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 64 bit libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements / 10 (if 10 is your version). You define which record the location for the Adobe Premiere elements elements previews file folder to the first elements Editor workspace Edit Menu/preferences/Scratch disks and the category of video Previews.

  Please let us know if you are now clearly Premiere Elements and how it relates to media Cache and al.

• Remove all media cache files?

  I found a hidden folder in my user folder called media Cache files. It's more than 163 GB.  If I can delete these files, or will they screw up Premiere Pro?

  I remove after each project is finished... If they are needed, P - Pro them will create again

• Work on two machines - what media cache?

  I am a long time user of the PCF getting just my head around first Pro CS5.5. I often work on the same project, at work and at home. With FCP I just duplicated the media on another drive and carried just the project file on a disc flash - obviously rendered effects will have to be done locally.

  Now with the first, I noticed there is the media cache which AFAIK, is not necessarily something to do with rendering and effects, but associated and applied to each element.

  So my question is, the media cache will need to be built from scratch on each machine whenever I move the project file?

  If so, is there a way to avoid this, so that I won't have to wait for it to build the media cache?

  .. .or on a 30 minute film with 15 hours of original media will be what it's going to be a quick process so as to not be a problem?

  I guess what I'm really asking is how can I easily work on the same project in different places?

  Any help appreciated.

  For now my media is in my library folder of the user on the system drive.

  I would avoid using the system drive for media cache files.

  The best would be to have another one with the same name in car
  (D) for your media cache.

  If you use an external drive for your media, make sure that
  you assign the same drive letter on this drive on both systems.

  ... and then duplicate the lot on another drive?

  I never tried to copy large media files in a cache
  system to another... preferring to create generate a
  cache for each system.

  Another thing. Suppose I have capture some media more at work, can I just copy this media in the same location on my drive home and then cover media on my machine at home just update new media?

  Yes.

• Media cache re-edit the link

  My external hard drive has been suddenly disconnected and after that I reconnected it I made sure the cache of media and media cache files have been pointing to the right folder.  But still the media are all in line all over again. Is there anyway to connect to the cache of already in line media?

  We found a work around.  We had a backup of the project folder.  We have replaced the damaged file which was to reconform with the old project file that was saved before the disconnected hard drive and it automatically reconnected to the original and working media without consistent cache.

  MORAL OF THE STORY:

  ALWAYS save your project file.

• Manually remove Adobe media cache?

  I'm looking for I have the Adobe/Common/media file Cache file and want to remove about 20 GB of data in this folder.

  I can just select the files I want to delete and delete them manually or I have to open each adobe program and remove them through preferences?

  I would like to remove them manually if possible because they are old files, I recognize that I want more but don't know what program is caching them as it is not possible to lookin at them in the folded media Cache files

  Thank you

• Try to move the media Cache folder

  I have the latest version of first Pro CC on OSX 10.9.4. I want to spend my media files cache and media cache database by default file, / USERS/LIBRARY/APPLICATION SUPPORT/ADOBE/COMMON on my drive to scratch the external media. I changed it to my settings, and I can see the files cached in the new directory. However, somehow, new media cache files are still put in the old cache files and database records. It's as if some go to the new, some go to the former. Any reason for this and not to chance it? I don't want no caching to arrive on my internal system disk, I want that all to be outside.

  Just found something odd - I tried to make a whole new cache directory of media on my scratch disk after you reset the first pro prefs. Now, first put the files cached in this new, the previous, I created on my Media Player and on my system folder. Is this a bug?

  The way to solve it is to change your location of folder cache directory in first preferences, then first immediately close and re open media. If you close and re open, the change will not take effect if you do something else, even after restarting the program. I advise to do this without having to open a project with the media, just make a new project and do not import any media.

• Permanent disk cache should be on a separate media cache drive?

  Hi guys =) I will build a mounting with PP & AE system and I am trying to decide on my storage configuration. Google, PPBM7, books whites and useful forum posters have mostly resolved my questions.

  But one thing that I'm still not clear persistent Disk Cache. After reading this white paper , have left me a bit ambiguous as to how different caches must be sorted.

  That I have collected (I think it's good):

  • Persistent disk cache is a "permanent" copy / stable for your RAM previews.
  • Persistent disk cache is totally different from the 'media Cache"/"Scratchdisk' other guides on PS, PP, etc, I see.
  • PDC is also distinct from the "media Cache" used by After Effects
  • Caches of media should always have their own drive (if possible) because they are accessible at all times and benefit from separation I/O

  I'm not sure is:

  Should be the PDC also on its own separate drive of the media Cache? The white paper and other configuration guides, leave this ambiguous, often only mention 'Caches Media' in their recommended configuration "four motor".

  I am interested in this in 2 different directions:

  • Hypothetical. Whether practical or not, performance increase by PDC and media on separate drives Cache?
  • Practice. In practice, if the main domain controller is placed on the same drive as the other Caches/Scratchdisks, will create this slowdown noteworthy/questions?

  I understand that any response cannot be absolute in the world of software creation because it will always be concerned with exactly what you do and how you use it. But in General would be nice. =)

  Yes, it's OK to use the SSD even for the two kinds of cache. If you had a lot of extra money, you could get a small acceleration by separating them, but it is not essential to do so.
