Adobe Premiere & Premiere Pro discussions from 2006

How would you fix this (PPro or AE?) http://www.geocities.com/djlewis2000/gold.jpg

And the coorect answer doesn't include the phrase "re-shoot"

Its a combination of not having a field monitor, and my boss insisting on holding up a gold reflector.

Jad Meouchy · April 18th, 2006, 07:10 PM

wow, that's not going to be too easy.. not much to work with except the green of the grass

it's oversaturated to the point of losing a lot of color information, but there is enough to salvage

I think I killed significant fine detail with too much contrast, but the colors seem a little better

Eric Lagerlof · April 18th, 2006, 07:54 PM

Has any one gotten this message? I get the error with both a DV and HDV camcorder. I have tried the renew 1394 folder in the registry that is on the Adobe tech paper. I don't seem to have the Nimo Codec that was a problem for some and I have not changed any hardware on my computer, (a Sager 4790 laptop with a 3.2 p4/HT and a gig of RAM). There is no specialized capture hardware either, i.e. Canopus or Matrox stuff. The only a/v type software I've added since the install has been the Dreamweaver 8 Studio tryout version. Everything worked fine up until about a month ago. No real changes to the computer I remember. Anybody else have this issue and or a solution? Thanks for the interest.

DJ Lewis · April 18th, 2006, 10:47 PM

Yup, that's about the same result I get as well... pretty frustrating, but you can only do so much once its on tape (and can't re-shoot).

Pat Sherman · April 19th, 2006, 12:25 AM

About the same here.. That white hair is killing ya..:)

does anybody know how.....or if possible, to take a M2T file, stick it in premier1.5.5 and burn it to a disk so i can view it on a large screen T.V.?
i burned one, but it was REALLY pixeled out, so maybe i'm missing a step or something? any help would be great
thanks

Hey hey. Another question for you all, regarding Premiere Pro 1.5, again. I recently mastered Color Correction, and now I feel like a big man. But, now, I wanna know something that has been bothering me for a while.

Clips in movies and television occassionally play backward, for, say, jumping backwards up a building or whatever. Is this possible to do in Premiere Pro 1.5? I have no idea where to start - the Mirror effect wasn't what I wanted at all.

As always, thanks in advance for everyone's help.

Hi Logan,

I think that you should select the clip in your timeline, right mousse click on it, and then go to: speed/duration.
There you can select the speed, but if I'm not mistaken, there's an option there: reverse.
If not, try - 100 %, with the speed, but I think there's an option for it.

Best regards,

Logan Bright · April 19th, 2006, 03:28 PM

Ah! All that time, and all it took was one check box. Thanks a lot sir, 'tis much appreciated indeed!

I have never attempted to put still images (.jpg) in the timeline. I dropped one in the timeline today thinking it would show up in the preview monitor. It didn't. Just black video.

Anyone know why it might not?

Joshua Provost · April 20th, 2006, 11:00 AM

Adam,

Based on a recent thread here, try converting the JPEG to a Photoshop PSD file and try that. Premiere seems to work best with PSD file.

Stephen Jackson · April 20th, 2006, 03:33 PM

If the file size of the .jpeg is too large it will disapear, I had that happen to me on an edit job.

What I did was to import into photoshop and save as .tga
Or you can resize the .jpeg to reduce file size.

Thomas Fraser · April 22nd, 2006, 08:43 AM

I want to scan my photos and insert into a video.
What is the best format and dpi to use thats works best in Adobe Premiere Pro.
Thank you

Robert Holley · April 22nd, 2006, 09:48 AM

Hi I am having the same problem, and the way you said oyu fixed it is pretty foreign to me, care to elaborate?

Robert Holley · April 22nd, 2006, 09:54 AM

Hello,

I've had this problem for a while but in the past I've found creative ways to work around it. I'm working on a project now though that I cannot workaround so i have to rectify.

Basically whenever I lay text or a QT with an alpha channel on track 2 over some footage on track 1, when rendered the footage in track 1 gets a wider picture.

any advice? by the way I am using PPro1.5 and the Matrox Rx
