Premiere Pro CS4 feature Questions

Hey everybody,

I was thrown in a project that is using Premiere Pro CS4 (we use Roxio VideoWave) and I hope someone can answer a few basic questions (I'm not an expert in the field of the video editing software):

(1) in the wave of the video, I can easily add photos and movies to a project simply by drag-and - drop from Windows Explorer. First, it seems, the only way I can add photos and videos to a project is to import media, and then drag them from the 'library of project' to the timeline. Is it possible to drag-and - drop a photo directly from Windows Explorer in a timeline? If so, please tell me what stage of base, Miss. :-)

(2) is it possible to get a glimpse of what will look like a transition before adding to made the transition to film?

(3) when I add a photo/video library project, I have to hold the CTRL key to have a 'ripple' Insert (for example, push everything into the exit delay). Also, I have to hold the CTRL key to make a 'ripple trim. Is it possible to define these actions by default, so I don't have to hold down the CTRL key for these?

(4) Lastly (for the moment :-)), in Roxio Videowave I could easily change the volume of an audio clip in the timeline just by clicking on the average line goes through the sound wave and dragging upwards or downwards.) I can't know if there is a similar average easy to do in Premiere Pro.

Any help is appreciated! Again, sorry if these are basic stupid questions, but the first is currently well above my level of experience.

Thank you! :-)

(1) is there a way to drag and drop a photo directly from Windows Explorer in a timeline?

First, no, it does not - at least since the Explorer himself. You must first import the files (you can drag and drop them in the Panel project/bin) and then edit them in sequence. However, you can try on the media browser; go to window > Media Browser so you don't see it. Media browser will give you an interface of type Explorer that you can use to drag files directly from the folder structure on your hard drive in a sequence; When you do so, they will simultaneously be imported into the project.

(2) is it possible to get a glimpse of what will look like a transition before adding to made the transition to film?

Nope; Just try them until you find one you like. Then memorize

(3) when I add a photo/video library project, I have to hold the CTRL key to have a 'ripple' Insert (for example, push everything into the exit delay). Also, I have to hold the CTRL key to make a 'ripple trim. Is it possible to define these actions by default, so I don't have to hold down the CTRL key for these?

Nope; those who are wired. It will become automatic for you after a while.

(4) Lastly (for the moment :-)), in Roxio Videowave I could easily change the volume of an audio clip in the timeline just by clicking on the average line goes through the sound wave and dragging upwards or downwards.) I can't know if there is a similar average easy to do in Premiere Pro.

You probably don't have the volume adjustments or keyframe activated for your track. Check out the following screenshot:

You can select "Show clip keyframes" (which lets you keyframe other effects via the menu drop-down on the clip) or "Show Clip Volume" that shows just the volume effect. A yellow line appears through the waveform; You can drag up and down to adjust the total volume of a clip, or use the control key and click the rubberband to add nodes or key images so that you can increase the audio. You can also control click a keyframe to germinate the handles so that you ease in or ease the level. Note that you can also select the 'Track' options, but (as his name suggests) to set the level of the entire track and not individual clips.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 Capture question

    Hi all

    I am currently using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 and I'm trying to use the option "Capture" to transfer files from my Panasonic HVX-170 P2 HD, but it doesn't seem to work.  I have the camera in PC (USB) mode and my laptop recognizes that the camera is mounted as a hard disk, but still the "Capture" option indicates the device is offline and I can't transfer.

    Any thoughts?  Thanks in advance!

    Welcome to the forum.

    Like an injury, you must copy your files via USB to the laptop. Caveat here: copy the structure of the entire folder of your map - all of this.

    Then, you import these files, not to capture.

    Good luck

  • 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.

  • Sync during compression HD FLV and F4V in Premiere Pro CS4

    Hello.  I am trying to create messages of public interest for You Tube initially created with a small device that produces Quicktime HD files.  For YouTube they do not have to be perfect, but that's what I'm working with.  My computer has only 4 GB of ram so I can't watch the video to test synchronization because it gives just a slide show when editing.  He never does anything, but a slide show with HD video.

    When I watch the original unedited Quicktime file synchronization was distant.  When I visited the original file in FLV and F4V formats, just to test the synchronization it is PERFECT.  Then I edited the first video from this session and FLV used and the timing was PERFECT.  So I do the second video synchronization, tested on the original film and its PERFECT.

    So I thought it was okay to continue.  Everything was perfect after that first made the raw images. The first video worked, right? Synchronization of the raw images of the second video has been fixed, right?

    Now that I spent all the time to edit the 2nd video, sync is TERRIBLE.  I have no idea why.  F4V was worse than FLV, but none are ideal for 2 video.  So I guess I have two questions:

    (1) what format should I use to upload to YouTube which does not give me a unusable timing problem

    (2) is there something I can do to see continuous synchronization in Premiere Pro CS4 without updating my equipment?  I use Vista 64 bit, 4 GB of ram, dual-core intel.  What I have to do a significant hardware upgrade just to get HD video do not make a slideshow during first execution?

    Thank you!

    AVI file to the private mssg link... 1 gigabyte, takes about 30 min to DL - look and tell me if synchronization is better or worse you know... or the same thing... without you looking at this file and checking against your own there would be no way of KNOWING what (compared to what you met).

    IF THE AVI IS BETTER... What are the steps

    project settings and description of the measures shown below...

    CineForm (neoscene) can handle that sort of thing of conversion, but I do not have this program... most of this will be explicit from the images...

    Here's the info from mediainfo avi export

    below is the description of steps

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

    easyShare measures taken

    his program (I used soundforge) allows re - sample 16 kHz sound for wav file (wav pcm) to 48 kHz and 32 bit floating point.

    record in stereo or mono (stereo may turn into 2 mono channels when they are imported in preview)

    Import original mov file to the new project, untie her, remove its import wav and put on wav chronology... link to the video.  I increased the volume on an audio file with conversion just for my own satisfaction... you can do what you want the audio file also (re: filters etc)

    The file size will be HUGE... as you're now away from the advanced mpeg 4 HIGHLY compressed format of your original footage...

    However, it is OK to HAVE BYTES COUNT FILE AT THIS POINT HUGE...

    You can then IMPORT the AVI file that you exported in first for your mounting--(je commencerais nouveau projet pour cela) with very little "loss" of original quality - most of the humans would be able to tell any difference between the quality of the original and this AVI file... (I can't).

    After you change the avi file or files to export as flash or anything else you want...

  • 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.

    I hope this helps.

  • Only Premiere Pro CS4 No 5.1, as stereo DolbyDigital surround sound!

    Hallo,

    ICH habe ein Projekt eroffnet in Premiere Pro CS4 mit DolbyDigital. Habe meine AVCHD Videomaterial exported mit 5.1 Surround importiert. Die Soundspur wurde auch kreatin ind die 5.1 Soundspur eingefugt. Exported habe ich über den Adobe Dynamik Link mein gesendet Projekt an Encore CS4. Sleeps habe ich ebenfalls ein Projekt eroffnet mit dein Einstellungen und DolbyDigital DVD. Ein Menu standing und exported auf DVD ausgegeben. Leider habe ich auf der DVD nur DolbyDigital stereo! Warum? Was mache ich please?

    Vorab vielen Dank fur eine Antwort.

    Hello

    I opened a project in first pro CS4 with Dolby Digital. If my AVCHD videomaterial with 5.1 Surround imported thereafter. The soundtrack was also inserted correctly in the trace of 5.1. Subsequently I sent on the Adobe Dynamklink my project in Encore CS4. Here, I also opened a project with your settings DVD and Dolby Digital. Spent a menu provided and subsequently on DVD. Unfortunately, I have on the DVD only Dolby Digital Stereo! Why? What do evil?

    Hallo Torsten,

Mein Vater und meine Tochter beiden leben in der Schweiz, exactly how different friends. Also, deswegen...

    Die Mitarbeiter Adobe haben deine question naar nicht ganz understand. Es ist richtig, dass of the 5.1 Audio still ausgeben kannst ohne plugin von, aber sie haben sich nicht die question gestellt offers sharp Audio in 5.1 Format herkommen soll. Sie haben einfach angenommen, dass schon ein 5.1 Soundtrack zur Verfuegung ACE. Dazu die zur plugin add over-codes Ausgabe von PR nach FR.

    Die die unkontrollierte Knackser ACE, oefters kommen vor. Meistens ist das zu fuehren auf Geschwindigkeit drive ungenuegend back. Of the you can taste die zu entfernen, PR ab zu schließen, media Cache PR Rubis zu starten und dann wird alles Rubis indexiert, und consistent PEK files werden Rubis available. VIELLEICHT hilft das.

    Hallo harm,

    Danke managed as your Antwort und das offer Dir eine zu dürfen, wenn ich noch eine question haben should send PN. ICH habe vor Wochen eine Hochzeit gefilmt some mit meiner Sonykamera und bin fast verrückt geworden, dass ich das mit 5.1 nicht hinbekommen habe. ICH habe meine drei aufgebraucht und werde mir die Freischaltung of SurCode holen nun Tests.

    Eine question had ich noch, die mich momentan valet. ICH habe in the last weeks different photographs getatigt. Wenn ich mein withdraw in Premiere Pro importiere, habe ich im immer wieder unkontrollierte Knackser sound. Wenn ich mir is das Originalmaterial, z. b. mit dem VLC-Player anschaue, sind keine Knackser available. Hello from the eine Antwort oder idea is. DAS Soundmaterial liegt wieder in 5.1 vor.

    ICH habe auch already mit Adobe u. a. wegen diesem problem Kontakt thrilled, until von sleeps erhalte ich keine Antwort form. Wanted mir auch weiss machen, dass ich die mit dem still mein video in 5.1 ausgeben kann und kein plugin email.

  • My notebook yourself run Premiere Pro CS4?

    Hey guys,.

    I'm new here. I was wondering if my laptop could run Premiere Pro CS4. Regardless of the conditions on adobe.com, could my laptop still run ok?

    Data sheet:


    Dell Studio XPS 16

    Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 - 2.4 GHz, 3 MB cache, 1066 MHz FSB

    4 GB DDR3 RAM memory twin 1067 MHz

    Graphics ATi Mobility Radeon 4670-1 GB

    320 GB AT 7200 RPM

    1920 x 1080

    Tell me if I need to add more specifications.

    Thanks in advance!

    Amazon page you can click the menu drop down and choose the 500 GB model, which is only $119 (I paid $184 last year for the 500 GB, then got the 1 TB for $155... price!). He comes to 7200 RPM drives and important features.

    No, you needn't the ExpressCard if you have an eSata port. I did not, so I was just showing what is available.

    eSata drives are not faster than internal hard drives (at least 7200 rpm ones), but they're pretty close. The point is NOT to use USB or FireWire, port ports, they are slower. But for editing on a laptop, you'll want a second disc for your support with your internal drive for the OS and creation. You can do it on a drive to the rigour, but performance will suffer. If your laptop could mount a second internal drive then that would be nice, but it's going to be a hot laptop!

    I had to reinstall my Premiere Pro CS4 (which was a downloaded update) on a new computer and install the free trial first.
