Shazam!!
The new PHD v 4.0.5 has fixed some big problems for me. CS4 CFHD video playback is now smooth & normal looking (as in CS3/PHD3) Plus I was getting a severe audio glitch from EX1 converted footage that is now gone. Is that a light at the end of the tunnel that I'm seeing???? I think I can actually start editing with this rig now. Congratulations to you and your team, David & Jay. Ahaaaa... nothing like the bleeding edge. |
How come the last two updates of Neoscene MAC say version 1.0.5.9 in About in my system? I installed the 1.0.6.11 tonight from your site and it was still 1.0.5.9. Thanks.

All systems Go!
Yep, 4.05 has fixed the last few bugs I needed to start using ver 4! Cineform AVI export no longer deinterlaces, playback is good in CS4 etc.
So after owning Premiere CS4 for over 6 months, I can ditch CS3 and fully edit in CS4. I bought my NeoHD upgrade last night! Good going David, Tim, Jake and the rest of the team. Keep up the good work. |
412 still doesn't install filters and transitions on either of my sytems.

Where are ALL your Premiere PRo folders? Exact paths please.

Hmmm... My CF 32 bit filters & transitions show up in Pro CS4, and are usable, tho they give a red render line.
However, I can't find any "Mediacore" folder under Program Files (x86). Adobe> PProCS4, or Common Files> Adobe. I remember there was a Mediacore folder on my old CS3 system Now my CF filter/transition files are installed in Program Files (x86)> Adobe> PProCS4> Plug ins> en_US. Is this as it should be, or am I missing something?? |
Hi Guys
I want to try using CS4, but the video transitions don't show on the list. I have been using CS3. How do I get them to appear? Thanks Gil |
For some reason mine were installed into C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4\Plug-ins/en_GB/cineform.
Ive never seen the GB directory before. Anyway I moved the the cineform directory to en_US and everything worked for me. |

So, should playing back the Timeline in Premiere Pro CS4.1 make all cores to peg at around 88% - 97% when playing back CF files? Source footage CineForm AVI File, 1080i, High Quality, I-Frames Only, 25fps, UFF. I use: Premiere Pro CS4.1 NeoScene-1.3.2.117 Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit 16GB RAM 2 x Intel Xeon E5450 (3.0GHz) |

I'll file TT tomorrow. |
Roger, similar % of usage on my machine also. I have Vista x64 SP2, Quad Core 2.83ghz.
CS4 4.1 I am getting in 92% range when viewing in high quality playback and 75% range if previewed in Draft mode |

I updated the graphic card driver and that helped a bit, but not much. It is ImporterProcessServer.exe that uses all that power when i playback the footage. This Process belongs to Pr CS4. |

full file path Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/CS4 |

The full Premier path is Vista/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe Premier Pro CS4 I notice that CF filters installed in Adobe Premier Pro CS4/Plug-ins/common and also put a Cineform folder into the Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/CS4. The files all have the same date so I presume they all installed at the same time. They work when moved down one level to Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/CS4/Mediacore |
Is the Vista part of "Vista/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe Premier Pro CS4" really in your path. Please should the full path including the drive letter, as that path looks weird.

I am getting ImporterProcessServer.exe crashes quite regulary and it blames the cineform dll. :-)

However, playback 1920x1080 CFHD footage in Pr CS4.1 and take a look at the CPU usage and how much of that CPU usage ImporterProcessServer.exe uses. I see the same issue on any CFHD 1920x1080 Timeline and/or directly in the Source which rule out any mismatch between media and Timeline.

No, that is not snickers in the background...I really feel for you... I guess Adobe is getting like MS with their version numbers: "anything odd is good, even is not". Maybe CS5 will chase the 4 blues away...if there's any blood left in us. Maybe we'll get lucky and Google will come up with a cloud computing editor to take on Adobe...snick snick... |
At the moment I feel like Adobe has their head in the clouds and I have a fully fledged "cloud editor".

I am actually moving along rather smartly on a 30 min program (200-300 clips in the bins) using PHD4/CS4/Firstlight. It's all running pretty smooth. The power of i7/ Vista 64/ Big RAM is very impressive and I do like PPro CS4. So far, no lock ups, crashes, etc. Occasional minor previewing problems due to lack of CF RT playback, but no big deal so far. I'm encouraged!! And...duh...I did finally find my Mediacore folder- everything seems to have installed in the right folders. I'm finding Firstlight to be both terrific and convenient as a basic CC/Clip Tweaking device. Bottom line: right this minute, CF/CS4 seems to be working better than CF/CS3 does on the old XP/Quad system. We may finally be coming down the home stretch on all of this. |
Well, smack my mouth! That's the best news I've heard all day! And yes, I confess, now that I remember back Adam...CS3 was crap city in the beginning. Maybe there is hope for CS4 after all?
I'll have to turn my chair around and go back to bleeding with CS4 on another workstation for a while, and see if you guys are telling me the truth...ha! I sure hope so, we've got lots of work ahead and we need all the POWER we can get. Keep bleeding! Keep bleeding! We need the fixes and you guys have got my attention now... |
Interesting because I always liked CS3. I started out with PP2 also. CS4 is the FIRST TIME that Adobe reminded me of Microsoft which is not good.
But looks like Cineform is fixing all the Adobe errors which is great to hear. Simon |
hmmm
Booya...fixed :)

Cineform presets
Does anybody get the Cineform presets with this latest version of Prospect 4K when opening a new project in Premiere Pro CS 4.1 under Windows XP64?
|
There are no presets yet in CS4, we will put that in the update log when they are ready.

Bug Form with Trial
Roger, you can infact submit a but report with a trial version. Just put TRIAL in the serial number field.

Quote:
I did however unistall the trial yesterday since it is impossible to try it properly. No RT playback, it uses *more* CPU power to playback the files than it takes to render them out from Adobe Media Encoder (it should be the opposite), 8-bit CFHD files makes Pr CS4.1 freeze everytime i import or try to use one... |
