Can not import certain mp3 files
 

In a bin (within Project), I tried to import a .mp3 song file and I get the following:I am using Win XP Pro with Adobe Premiere 6.0.
Has this ever happen to you and how do I fix it? The weird thing is that I can import other .mp3s without a problem, only some don't work.

Proper Procedure to Batch Capturing
 

I am ready to import all the video clips from the source tape.
In Premiere 6.0, I opened File/ Capture / Batch Capture/ and Add New Item

I typed in Reel Name: 001
File Name: source01
Log Comment: Night Short Clip
In Time: 09:10:30:00
Out Time: 09:12:30:00
Frame Rate: 30 fps
Format: Drop Frame

I clicked Record (round red circle) and I get an error:
"Please insert reel001, then click OK."

Is the problem from the In/Out Time?
I typed in the time shown on the video (9:10:30PM In and 9:12:30PM Out)

Capture to your hard drive using JVC HD10's enclosed HD Capture Utility.

Rename resulting m2t files into mpg.

Import into PPro 1.5

Voila!

Pardon the late reply. I am using 1.5

Yes that's the error, you should type in the timecode time.

How exactly do I find out the timecode?
On the camcorder LCD, I only see the time in which the video was filmed.
On the camcorder itself, it has a "DATA CODE" button and not a "TIME CODE" button.

It should actually appear in the monitor window in premiere.

If not and you have a sony TRV14, 22, or 33 then you can press the "display" button on the left of the camera by the viewfinder to make the timecode appear.

The data code option on my camcorder doesn't seem to have anything to do with time code.

Your timecode will nearly always be between 0.00.00.00 and 1.02.08.00.

I had this problem a while ago in Pro. I was capturing from CD using windows media player, seemed that I had somehow put copyright protection on. Therefore it didn’t open in Premiere. Took me a while to realise what I had done. I took it off and now it works fine

I was getting the same error as you are.

Hope you can relate

So..... Alex, I'm assuming you have an FX1 that you've used the JVC Capture Utility with?

And it does work with the Sony? Uunfortunately the other JVC supplied software didn't like Kaku's m2t FX1 clips..... so I was wondering how the Capture Utility would go with the new cam.....

Should work fine. Choose AVI as export and then the DIVX codec.

16x9 export frame doesn't work
 

When I import 16x9 footage from my xl2 and then export a frame the result is not the same size. I've never had problems when working with 4:3 projects. I can't use any of these frames in my project becuase they don't match. It doesn't appear to be the height that is the problem but it looks like it is pushed in from the sides. I've tried every setting (square pixels, dv1 16x9, etc...) and nothing works. Any help here would be appreciated.

I'm using Premiere Pro 1.0.

First time adobe user...stupid question.
 

Okay, I feel really dumb for asking this, and I should. I've been using Final Cut Pro HD for editing, I've gotten used to it...I like it. I'm over my friends house at the moment and I have to edit something over this weekend, I have no FCP at all, this is my first time using Premiere...

How the hell do I take my IN and OUT points from my MONITOR view, and make them subclips into the PROJECT window? I can't seem to do it for the life of me, I can't even find it in the help option. In FCP I just had to press apple+U , and viola...

I know this is probably very easy, but damn if I haven't been at it for the last 20 minutes looking for it, lol...I don't want to edit my whole file in the TIMELINE area, I'll go crazy... :) , thx alot guys...nice forum.

Quite simple..

When in monitor view you should see a type of slider underneath the monitor window. Quite simply at the in point you require press the "i" key on your key board, and for the out point press "o". This will automatically trim the clip in the project window. Just drag this clip into your timeline and voila! If you want to use a different part of the clip somewhere else in the timeline, double click the icon in the project window to open the clip back up and readjust the in and out points. It will not effect the first clip, just the next one.

Good luck.

Damn, I figured it out...long night last night ;) , thx

Hi Jay,

In the bottom left of your monitor screen there are two little symbols that look like jagged parethesis. Like other software, if you rest the mouse pointer on the symbols, a little banner will pop up telling you what it is. The one one the left is set in and the one one the right is set out. Shuttle your video and mark your points. Move your timeline marker to the area where you want the clip to go. On the bottom right of the monitor window are two symbols for insert and overlay, choose accordingly and the clip will appear in the timeline.
Another way is after you choose your points, position the timelime marker where you want the footage to go then left click on the monitor video and drag to the project window. It automatically appears in your timeline.
