Adobe Premiere & Premiere Pro discussions from 2005

No I'd go to the video card manufacturer sight. Nvidia or ATI or who ever. Like I said, it fixed it immediately. Let me know how it goes.

Under the Effects tab, twirl down Video Effects, twirl down Image Control and double-click or drag'n'drop Color Balance (HLS) to the clip or monitor window. In the monitor window, select the Effects tab, twirl down the Color Balance (HLS) filter, twirl down Saturation, and either slide the bar or enter a value directly to change saturation.

I already went thru all those... I ended up restoring to a month ago, then doing a Windows Repair installation, then reinstalling PP... WHAT A PAIN.. but it is working.

If anybody tries to export to DVD from Premiere Pro 1.5 and discovers that PPro can't find the DVD burner, look at this link:

If that doesn't work, look here:

But keep in mind that the list is just a reference. My Sony DVD burner is not on the list but works great.

Thanks Doug.

I've just started experimenting using the 'Color Corrector' effect to reduce saturation. That effect does not have the flicker problem of 'auto color'.

I'll also try the method that you propose.

Ken W.

flicker using auto correction settings is a common problem for premiere users. there should be no flicker if you use the manual adjustments tho. that's the only "workaround" i'm aware of. good luck.

Well, the problem I'm experiencing is rather consistent. On short audio clips, say 1-2 minutes, the audio files update after tweaking in Audition (using edit original after render and replace). But when I work on a 20min clip in audition and do the save as, and go back into Premiere, I can see that the file is conforming, but after it is done, the audio clip is still the same. I waited for 5 minutes but still the old unmodified clip. If I save the project and close it and reopen it, the new audio file is present. Any ideas?

I am curious - In using Premiere, is it possible to select a section of a frame and add an effect just to the selected region (i.e. blown out sky in otherwise well exposed scene)? Or is this only done in After Effects?

TIA!

Hi Hugh,

Thanks for posting this, It'll probably help others out if they get stuck with the same problem!

Cheers,

[Jimmy McKenzie]

Export a frame and open in photoshop.
Select the area you want to isolate for the effect.
Alt + backspace to fill black.
Invert the selection.
Fill that area white.
Now you have a matte.
Back to PPro ...
Duplicate the clip in the timeline.
Place the photoshop matte in track 3.
The upper clip (track2) will have track matte applied to it.

Un-eyeball track 3.
Apply whatever effect you want to track 2 and only the revealed space based upon the track matte will have the effect applied.
The above is for locked down scenes. For more complex work with motion mattes, you are best to play in A/E. Lots of patience for that.
YWA!

Ed:

I haunt the Adobe forum from time to time and I can feel the desperation in the words of the people who post their hardware/software conflict problems. In this particular case, I had the same problem and could not sleep because of it (literally). I awoke at 0300 hours and worked on the problem and searched the Adobe forums and read every post and solution until I found one that worked. So I like to pass it on to anybody who has this issue which is simply solved.

Now that you are here, I seem to be having a problem with the Adobe Audition 1.5 software. When I first started using it, I could rip individual music tracks from CDs for use in Adobe Premiere 1.5. However, now all of a sudden, when I try to rip individual music tracks, the software recognizes my drive but tells me it does not recognize any music with the .cda extension (which is cd music!) So now why, all of a sudden, can I not rip/import tracks from my Sony DVD burner?

By the way, if you click the links on my fist post you cannot get onto the Adobe site unless you are a registered user so here is a cut and paste of my post:

<<You need to remove then re-install Premiere Pro so it recognizes the new drive. The following paragraph cut and pasted from the Adobe site explains why:

<<18. Reinstall Adobe Premiere Pro.

DVD driver entries can be accidentally deleted or become misprioritized in the Windows registry, resulting in errors. Removing and reinstalling Adobe Premiere Pro can replace a deleted DVD driver entry or change the priority of a DVD driver entry in the Windows registry.>>

I did what it said and now my DVD burner works great.>>

Very cool! Thank you so much!

In Adobe Premiere Pro, I am gradually losing lip-sync even after rendering. If I stop and start again in the same place, the lip-sync is restored, but is lost again in around a minute. Can anyone come up with a solution?
Thanks in advance,
Mike Wham

I was wondering if this card
(ATI All-In-Wonder X800 XT 100-714200 All-In-Wonder Radeon X800XT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3)
was good to use with Premiere Pro. I currently have ATL 9600. Works great but I could use a faster one. HAs anyone had experience with this card? From all reports it appears to be a great card. Just wanting to get all your Ideas.

Thanks
Harry
