Distorted Video Display Problem
i'm having problems with how Premiere pre-renders... i think.
everything looks fine in the Display Window as long as nothing is pre-rendered. But most staff here have to pre-render... this is when the problems appear. SETUP ================ CS4 Suite 4.0.1 WinX64 Pro 64bit SP2 Xeon Dualcore 2.83GHz 4 Gig RAM NIVIDIA Quadro FX 1700 All media is square pixel, all the templates used are square pixel. all output is square pixel. Image size is 720x540 and 864x486. PROBLEMS ================ 1) pre-render footage (green line above timeline) using I-Frame Only MPEG, all media in the display window scales slightly in from the left/right edges of the frame (similar to D1 media scaled to DV format). 2) pre-render footage using Microsoft AVI, media is scaled outside the display window significantly (like 16:9 over 4:3) a nifty followup problem is that: 3a) if one pre-renders using Microsoft AVI, then attempts to Export, Premiere will crash. 3b) if one pre-renders using I-Frame Only MPEG, then Exports, Premiere does not crash. ~ if it was j-u-s-t me, i wouldn't bother with pre-rendering. but there are others here who need to. Anyway, it doesn't seem unreasonable to expect a Display Window to function in a WYSIWYG manner. are the problems in #1 and #2 documented somewhere? or is CS4 still getting the bugs worked out? |

Can i assume that the pre-renedered files aren't the same as your project settings in PPRo?
There shouldn't be a green line for pre rendered material brought into an existing project..There should be a red line for pre rendered clips that aren't the same as the project settings. Are you using a Matrox card? |

LATER ok, to recap: everything we work with is in square pixels. we recently shifted to 64bit workflow. this caused some problems. lost some codecs (still waiting for IT to install Huffyuv/Lagarith for instance). anyway...
We changed the codec to Microsoft Video 1 and Video Preview now displays correctly. And in a follow-up I found this posting at Adobe Forums which covers almost all the same problems and also lists the solution, tho the topic devolves after a bit: Quote:
