Hello again Ed.

Yeah, got the new PC. Don’t know about the monitor yet. This is due to the fact that the Radeon 9200 needs an adapter for the second monitor (which I don’t have until sometime this week)

Adobe was installed before the DV500. Instructions off the Pinnacle site were followed exactly.

There is nothing running in the background. The new PC has no connection to the Internet and it has no other programmes (except DVD player software and other bits).

The comp crashes at the editing point. It can be when clicking on virtually anything or rendering. Or even just dragging a clip to the preview monitor.

The settings are Pinnacle DV PAL.

Audio Changes

I've been having this problem with Premiere (v6.5)... what happens is I'll get my project exactly how I want it, but when I export the project all the audio levels turn down for some reason. So I have to go into the project and turn up all the levels which sound like crap in the project just so it sounds good when I export it. Its really annoying because I have to export clips over and over again until I find the right sounding levels for everything.

Has anyones else had this problem or know how to resolve it?

Thanks.

Hi Will,

I have heard of problems where in P6/6.5 if you made a fade, and you went to preview it, it would not fade like it was supposed to.

A reset to default (Shift+Ctrl while opening premiere, if I remember rightly) normally solved the problem. Or closing the audio mixer if it is open.

What are you expoting to? Is it AVI, QT or to tape?
How are you previewing the audio? though PC speakers or TV?
Are you using any hardware assistants (DV500, RTX100 etc)?

Thanks,

Hi Sean,

That one had me puzzled for a while. But a bit of fidderling around I think I might have found what you are after.

Rather than right clicking on a clip in the timeline (like you used to do in any other version of premiere), this time it is done on a per clip basis from the project bin.

1 On the clip you wish to change aspect ratio, right click it in the project bin.
2 Then choose Interpret footage...
3 In the Interpret footage dialog box, select the conform to... radio button, and then from the drop down list select the aspect ratio you wish to use for the clip. Select OK when done.
4 The clip now has the aspect ratio you selected. Drag to timeline and edit as you wish.

5 To change the background colour, you will need to create a matte (File> New> Matte). Choose your colour and select OK.
6 Then place the matte below the clip in the timeline.

Hope that makes sense. Let us know how you get on,

Yep, that's the method I came up with too. Or, in the case of a textured background, you just have to lay it onto a lower track someplace and the do the "interpret Footage" to it. Problem is, what if the image I imported already has a bit of black around it, now I will need to crop it as well.

That's a lot of steps to take if I have 150 images in the timeline.

Seems like it was easier in 6.5 for some reason.

Sean

Exporting as AVI, previewing with computer speakers and no, I do not have any hardware assistants.

Hi Wayne,

A few things to check:

1 Are you pressing play before record?
2 Have you set your DV device control (found in preferences)?
3 Do you have control of the deck. i.e can you fastforward/ play/ rewind etc?

Thanks,

I can answer those questions for you Ed

1. Only the record and pause buttons light up, the play button does not work.

2. It is set at:
NTSC
Canon
DM-GL2A
Status is On-Line

3. No I don't have control of the deck.

I have tried the same firewire cable and camera to a XP labtop and it worked perfectly.

By the way I'm Wayne's son.

Try pressing the "Tape" button in the Capture Box (lower right corner of the Capture Window)

How do make Premiere Pro files portable?

I'm trying to move it between computers and it seems like that the file requires that everything be in the same exact location in terms of path. Any way around this? quite annoying...

Yes it would like that. I solve the problem with Vegas by mapping
my work drives to the same drive letters and paths.

Loading the project should give you the option to locate the files
manually. That's the only way, basically.

Getting 24p with a DVC80 in premiere 1.5

Ok, i made a little test, but if you choose the 24p project settings, then you capture the video in 60i, and you use the premiere interlace method... you get 24p material right away... and really fast...

Tell me who else have tested this ...

Try using Network paths... like //computerNetName/Path/

Kinda easier if you keep all files in the same folder ... so you just remap 1 and premiere find the rest.
