These are just titles that I created in PPro and I'm moving with keyframes in PPro, and the same is happening with a Photoshop mask I am using.
Here is what a frame is looking like in the monitor: http://www.integralarts.com/barry/interlace.jpg In this the title is moving in from the right. Any ideas? |

Adding default transitions
Guys,
I have been adding default transitions on a sequence, too easy.However, all of a sudden, can not add transition using the cntrl d menthod. I click on sequence tab and the add video transition in greyed out, can not do. Please help me understand why that would grey out so I can not activate, making me have to manually add every transition. In the end I cut and paste to new sequence to fix it but may happen again ......any ideas would be FANTASTIC MATES. Your Aussie battler |

Basically 3 things need to happen for this to work correctly:
1. the project settings must have the correct pixel aspect ratio for 16:9 NTSC 2. the footage must be detected as being 16:9 (I don't know how to set or check this in Premiere) 3. when outputting to something other than DVD (MPEG-2) or DV AVI you need to output at 1.0 pixel aspect ratio AT THE CORRECT RESOLUTION (multiply 720 by the pixel aspect ratio number to get the correct horizontal resolution).

Does this PC have audio inputs/outputs? If so, can you play back audio files
with something like Windows Media Player? If you answered no to any of those questions you need to fix and/or get your audio system first. This seems to be required by Premiere. (you will need it to edit your movie anyway).

Hi Rob!
It can be so simple that you have another track targeted. If you want to add a transition with Ctrl+D on Video 1 you must have Video 1 targeted. If Video 2 is targeted no transition will be placed on Video 1 using Ctrl+D. The same goes for audio transitions regarding targeted tracks. /Roger |

Import from DVD
I copied all of my VHS and Hi-8 tapes to DVD a while back. I would like to import these DVDs into Premiere Pro for editing. Can someone tell me what tools I need to do this and where to get them? I thought it would be a simple thing to import from DVD.
thanks |

Thanks for the frame grab. Next question: Do you see the same effect on a television monitor? I'm not surprised you'd see that effect on the computer monitor, as it is progressive scan and the combing effect happens if both video fields are played at the same time. But if it plays okay on a TV monitor, then everything is okay.

the problem is that your footage will most likely end up being automatically re-encoded a couple of times, which wrecks the picture quality... a lot of people out here just don't understand that.
in short, archiving video footage onto dvd(aka mpeg2) is never a good idea if there is the slightest chance that you'll have to re-use it again. if this is a commerical venture, you could take a look at the mainconcept mpeg2 plugin that claims to avoid re-encoding... it's expensive, and maybe a bit buggy. |

What verison of prem pro?
What are your project settings? Did you open a microsoft DV widescreen project or 24P? What are the Interpret video results when you right click on the clips in the bin?

Hi Roger,
I have been targeting the timeline. Eg,I will even click on the clip I want to add the transition too and the timeline scrubber is sitting between the two clips like always, very confusing. Have you any other reasons why this silly problem may be occuring. Thanks so far |

Target the desired track. Hit 0 enter to return the timeline bar to the start. Hit page down button to begin your journey across the timeline of the sequence. If there are multiple edits on many tracks, be sure you are on the edit of the track you need. Control-D. Done. Best to modify your own set of shortcuts and assign the default transition to an "F" key. This way when you have an hour of 2 camera content, you can blaze through at the end and sequentially hit page up then F10 as an example to effortlessly bomb your way through the many edits without your left hand getting sore.

Ahhhh ok, i was under the impression if i converted my footage (at my leisure) then i could edit it without encoding it all again :) (would take up less room)
i thought maybe i had a problem. :) thanks |

George,
I got ahold of a TBC and that did the trick. Even with the TBC, some parts were not stable, so the sync signal must be really bad in spots. Anyhow, all that could be transferred is on DVD now. Thanks again. |
