you should first verify the format and bitrate that you exported the clip at, i use avicodec for that purpose... and make sure that the project properties are set up correctly inside of premiere.

you can try playing the clip in another media player to make sure it's not an issue with wmp... download the vlc player, for instance.

I'd like to add things like a film look, tinting, cropping and the ability to speed up/slow down video.

I tried to Google it, but I couldn't find anything. Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place?

Plug ins . where to buy?

Are plug ins for Premiere Pro 1.5 only avalable by download for net?
I live in Toronto Canada and was wondering if anyone knows of a store or place where I can buy plugins, other then downloading them?

What you do in that situation is this:

computer -> firewire -> camera (or deck or converter) -> analog composite / s-video -> TV

Don't forget to enable monitor out in Premiere and if you use a
camera it must be in VCR mode (ie the same as when you would
do a print to tape).

This has been discussed before, but I can't seem to locate the
exact same thread, however, the following one might have some
pointers for you:

Okay, on to your specific questions:

- tinting (color correction?): I don't think Premiere 6.5 has much of these indeed. Might be a good idea to get Premiere Pro 1.5 or something like Sony Vegas?

- cropping: all NLE's I have seen support this. Let me guess: you want to add black bars to add a widescreen look? See my calculator page for some masks that you can use for this: www.visuar.com/letterbox/calc.htm

- speed up: pretty sure Premiere 6.5 can do this one way or the other (I don't remember how)

- slow down: this is pretty difficult to do (good) with video since we can't overcrank our camera's. It is far better to use specialized tools for this (if I remember correctly a program called Twixtor is good for this, do a search on that and "slowmotion" on this forum to find hundreds of threads on the subject!)

- film look: we have a dedicated forum to this (check it out), but basically it boils down to:

+ shooting at 25 or 24 frames per second
+ lighting / acting / writing a story like a PRO
+ camera composition / movement (ie no shaky camera!)
+ color correction
+ progressive/frame mode shooting instead of interlaced

So not much to do with your NLE although you can definitely
increase the look through de-interlacing (or faking or using a
specialized program if it doesn't look good enough) if your camera
can't record progressive/frame mode, color correction and some
other work.

For color correction I would not look at a plugin, but:

- at a new NLE (like the latest version of Premier Pro or another one that is good at color correction like Sony Vegas)

- a full blown application like: After Effects, Shake, Combustion or Digital Fusion etc. (all pretty expensive)


I did a search on Google with the following keywords:

adobe premiere 6.5 plugins

The FIRST hit was to the site www.pluginz.com

I selected Premiere from the pulldown and got a full list of plugins
including color correction, film looks and time warping (including
Twixtor! whatta ya know).

As far as I know most plugins are being sold over the internet,
I haven't seen any real-world shops that sell them. I assume
buying over the internet is a problem? I assume that the more
professional video shops could order software for you or may
have some plugins they sell.

Ah, yes. Can't think how I missed seeing that. :)

So, you work out where to put the top left-hand corner, nominate the width and height, then click Start and stand well clear.

That ought to do it! Thanks, Rob.

Well...

I believe it's a bit misleading.

Premier Pro 7 sounds like the latest, upgraded, version of Premier 6.5.

Not so.

Premier Pro 1.5 sounds like an all new, possibly still under developement, offering.

Premier Pro 7.0 is also referred to as Premier Pro 1.0 (same thing) and is actually the earlier version of Premier Pro (note the difference between "Premier" and Premier Pro").

If you're about to invest in a Premier Pro skip 7.0/1.0 and go straight to 1.5.

I found 7.0/1.0 was not Adobe's best work, 1.5 is much better.

Make sure the playback settings in premiere are set to playback via Firewire.

You mention that 6.5 locks up on you. Obviously Premiere should not do this, and in most cases it can be put down to a hardware/ driver problem, or Windows settings are not correct.

If you do upgrade to PP1.5 please make sure that you PC spec meets the recommened stated by Adobe. Pro1.5 is more hardware intensive, where as 6.5 is not so much...

Cheers,

Thanks for responding.

How do I export an EDL in premiere pro? I can't figure this out and the help is not very helpful.

Thanks guys,

I double checked my format setup and bitrate and all my properties in premiere. Everything was how it should be, 16-bit, 48000Hz etc. I did notice however that not all music/songs "crackle" when the volume is turned up, only certian ones. I did find a little bit simpler way of fixing it, if you go to "Window" then select "Audio Mixer" you can adjust the master volume. I did this and found the loudest part in my edit (by watching the levels in the mixer) and lowered it to about -6db.It was just enough so that the levels wouldnt peak (go into the red boxes) and cause the cracking. All in all when i made my dvd the audio turned out pretty well and i only had to turn my tv up two more clicks than normal to have it nice and loud. I know this is not a permanent solution but untill i can find one it will have to do.

Thanks agian for all the help!
Chris
