Can I bypass all effects?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 20 Oct 2013 17:52:56 GMT

I'm using CS6 and need to continue some editing on a project that I color corrected. It does not play well so I would like to temporally turn off all effects without having to go into the effects pallette of each clip manually. Is this possible? In Sony Vegas there is a switch in the preview window to bypass all effects. Does Premiere have something similar?

Thanks.

Red Giant's DeNoiser II in Premiere CS6?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 15 Sep 2013 00:07:42 GMT

I usually use Neat Video but I do not own the Premiere version so I thought I'd give Red Giant's noise reduction a try. I'm impressed with the quality but find that with a few instances of the plugin on clips Premiere slows so much that just making changes to the plugin settings is not very functional without long pauses. I tested the Neat video limited version and it does not have this problem. Am I doing someting wrong? I have an i7, 12gb of ram and a 570 card. Other Red Giant plugins like Colorista and Looks work fine for me.

Thanks, Marc

Is auto save not working???

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 10 Sep 2013 08:36:30 GMT

My APC just turned off to do a test and since the battery is bad my computer lost power. When I rebooted my premiere project is now corrupt. I just lost 1-2 days worth of work because the auto save does not actually seem to save anything. At least I cant find the files and the only folder I found has projects from 3 months ago yet auto save was on. This really sucks if this feature is not working. I'm using Premiere CS6 latest version.

Video levels question

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 13 Sep 2013 03:55:24 GMT

Hello,

As a new Premiere CS6 user I'm a bit confused about the way it handles video levels when compared to Sony Vegas.

In Sony Vegas I'm used to 16 RGB being video black (0 IRE) and 235 RGB being video white (100 IRE). This is what I understand as studio levels which is the range most professional video cameras like my EX1 record in when properly exposed. During editing if I design a graphic either in Photoshop or Sony Vegas I input 16 RGB for pure black and 235 RGB for pure white. This graphic will display between 0-100IRE on the waveform monitor. I keep my entire color correction workflow within this range (16-235 RGB / 0-100 IRE) and the resulting videos look proper on youtube (since the youtube player stretches the video out to full RGB levels during playback) and DVDs since the player seems to also expect studio levels (16-235 RGB).

In Premiere however certain things appear to work differently. Video seems to be handled in the same way as in Sony Vegas. I came to this conclusion by comparing the same EX1 clip in both programs and it displayed identical on the waveform monitors. However when I create a graphic in Photoshop or using the Premiere titler or solid color I find that I must use 0 RGB to get 0 IRE and 255 RGB to get 100 IRE on the Premiere waveform monitor.

So my question is should I create a white graphic as 235,235,235 or 255,255,255? Is Premiere actually converting my graphics to legal video levels automatically or is it just showing up falsely in the waveform monitor? Are there any pitfalls I need to be aware during exporting to stay in the legal video range of 16-235 RGB?

Also will there be video level differences on output when using native YUV effects vs. RGB effects like Colorista and Looks?

Many thanks, Marc

Prelude and Blackmagic Intensity?

I have been unable to find a way to preview footage to my Intensity card while in Prelude. Is this not possible?

Thanks, Marc

External preview monitor question

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 28 Feb 2012 01:52:50 GMT

Hello,

I'm trying to switch over to Premiere Pro CS5.5 for some of my future projects (coming from Sony Vegas 10) and I'm a little confused. I have a Black Magic intensity card and I am thinking about getting a Nvidea GTX 580 for the mercury playback. My goal is to use dual PC monitors for working space and preview to a 42" Panasonic Plasma HDTV.

Question: I have noticed that many of the GTX580 cards have an HDMI output. Would I want to use the HDMI output of the GTX580 to feed my Plasma or would I still use the Blackmagic card? I got the impression from another thread that Black Magic intensity will slow my Premiere timeline down. Also would the GTX580 HDMI output be as accurate as the BM Intesity card HDMI output?

Many thanks, Marc

Motion menu: interlaced or progressive?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 28 Feb 2012 20:11:44 GMT

I'm coming from Sony DVD Architect which required progressive video when using as a motion menu. Is there a preference when using motion menus in Encore?

Thank you, Marc
