I've had this issue for the last 2 years, ever since CC was introduced with Lumetri, and it has still not been resolved, even with totally different computers and graphics cards.

Selecting and adding a lumetri look, then changing that look to another look with drastically shift the gamma of the the image to be totally washed out. going back to the look first applied will bring the gamma back, but any other look from the first one selected will cause the gamma to wash out. Same issue applying lumetri within After Effects.

Has anyone else had this issue?

First applied look:

Changed look, with wrong gamma in the program monitor, but fine in the look preview window.

What are ".mxfindex" files and can they be deleted?

≪ Previous: Changing Lumetri look in PPcc Changes Gamma

We recently finished a multicamera project in Premiere Pro using multiple Canon c300 MXF files. Now, we ready to archive the project. However, there are several copies of the original source media for backup and also second working set for our second editor.

At some point during the editing process, a number of ".mxfindex" were generated in the same folder as the original ".mxf" files. I can't seem to find any information about why or when they were created. I can confirm they didn't come from the camera by looking at my offload log from ShotPut Pro.

Now, we need to clarify which copies to save (or if to save them at all). Is it something like an ".xmp" file that's saving metadata? Is it a temporary file that can be regenerated?

I've reached out by phone several times to Adobe Tech support on the phone and nobody including the senior guys seem to know exactly what this is. I've gotten conflicting information about saying it's both "very important and will break the folder structure" and also "it's temporary and can be deleted." Help!

Any help or insight would be very appreciated. Thanks guys!

Hi,

I have 60 fps footage. When I import it (either through import button or drag and drop) it shows up in my bin as being 29.97.

If I interpret footage, it just plays it fast forward.

My comp is set to 29.97, and I want to be able to play my 60 fps footage at half speed. Regardless of what my comp is, my footage should still import into the bins at the correct frame rate, no?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Premiere Pro Black Border Issues

≫ Next: Imported MXF-files comes in incorrect size/pixel aspect

≪ Previous: 60 fps imports as 30 fps

I'm currently trying to export a video through Premiere under the Youtube 1080 HD setting, but unfortunately when I choose that setting a black border appears around the contents of my video. All the images used in the video are set at 1920 x 1080 so this should not be occurring.

I have checked all my image sizes and they are definitely 1920 x 1080

I've exited out of the system to see if it's a glitch and this still occurs.

If I click "Scale to Fill" in the Source Scaling option the Preset automatically changes to "Custom" when I want the Youtube 1080 HD preset.

Would love help and feedback! Thanks!

≪ Previous: Premiere Pro Black Border Issues

Hi,

I have lots of old master files saved in Premiere Pro 5 as MXF in 1280x720 50p and pixel aspect 1,0 (Comes from Matrox 720 50p - projects).

When I import these files in Premiere Pro CC 2017 (or open old projects) they show up as 1280x540 50p and pixel aspect 0,750.

How can I change this so that Premiere Pro CC 2017 interprets the files correctly? I can change the pixel aspect individually in "Interpret Footage" but not the Image size. This is really annoying as I have to go through older versions to open these files.

Hope you have a solution for me...

Hi people,

I have a Kinemax 6K camera. This amazing camera shoot RAW video in 6K with the format .KRW (KineRAW). Everytime I want to edit my clips it's necessary to transcode the files in Cineform RAW, because the Adobe Suite doesn't support the .KRW files. I think this is not good for workflow, because i lost informations when I transcode the files.

So my question is:

In the future Adobe will introduce the reading of this format (.KRW)?

≪ Previous: Video duration/speed change after importing

Hello. When I open my Premiere Pro file, it shows me a list of files that are offline. However, these files are not a part of the main video project file. I inserted them at one point into the main video project file, but deleted them later. It seems as if the project has "cached" these files somewhere and I have no idea how to locate them.

When I open the file on my laptop, the main video project file plays fine and shows NO files are offline. However, when I use Project Manager and its default settings to package the main project file and send it to someone to view, it shows these files as offline within the main project file. I am at a total loss as to how to resolve this issue.

Dear all,

after I upgraded to the actual Windows Version 1703 I can use software encoding only ("Mercury Playback Engine - only software") in Adobe Media Encoder. Encoding Times are much longer than before (CUDA I think was ne normal option before)

As I can't find any problems regarding to the 1703 update, this seems to be no common issue. Anyone has any ideas what I can do to get CUDA encoding again? If not, I would deinstall the 1703 update as the next step.

Thanks for any help!

For whatever reason, my version of Premiere is set to DV as the default format.

I found out I did this when I went to export and there was a big black border around my video. Is there a whay to fix it or do I have to start over from scratch?

Hi, I've had this problem for the last two days with Adobe CC (fully up to date). When I play my timeline faster than normal speed (hitting "L") I often cannot stop it until it reaches the end of the timeline. The only way I found to get out of this is by putting my computer to sleep and restarting it.This aparently only seems to happen when I'm playing an embedded multicam sequence that I am editing. A simple clip on a timeline seems to play, accelerate and stop correctly.

Video files used : 1920X1080 .MOV files from a CANON 60D DSLR camera.

My system is a HP Z820 Workstation with 16 Gig RAM, a Firepro V7900 graphic card and a Windows 7 Professional (SP1) 64-bit operating system.

Anyone has ever had that problem? Thank you for your help.

Does anyone know how to resolve this, pulling my hair out and had to revert to CS5 to get my work done. No video is loading on .h264 .mov files... It's like the codec is missing and PPro is just importing the audio track

.h264 encoded.mov files with uncompressed audio only load audio track and no video
these same files worked previously in cs6
I have re-installed premiere pro cs6 and done all the system updates
same files import with video/audio as expected in cs5
this warning sometimes pops up on load of a CS6 project " The preset used by one of more sequences in this project requires third-party components that could not be located. These sequences will be modified to use a custom sequence setting instead. To continue editing using the original preset, quit the application withoug saving the project, reinstall any third-party components that are required and reopen the project. "
I have no additional codecs loaded, this was working until the other day
I get constantly harrassed by the licenceing box, perhaps the licenesed codecs are not being loaded
Is there a way to reload the QT codecs?
Preset is DSLR 24p 1080

Please anyone that can help would really help me out, I am being forced to move back to CS5 [already have] due to this issue, I am really hoping someone from the community can assist so I don't have to call India and wait to be asked to reinstall everything by entry level customer service person.

Premiere Pro CC and missing audio tracks for .mts files

≫ Next: Premiere introduces banding in Exports

≪ Previous: .h264 .mov files importing only audio

Hello guys,

I used to edit my .mts files with Premiere Pro CC without any issues until yesterday.

Now I import my .mts file (made with a Sony VG900) but Premiere doesn't recognize the audio tracks (that I can hear just fine with VLC).

I tried changing the extension in .m2ts but it didn't work, I also tried reinstalling Premiere but, again, it didn't work and I tried (I was desperate) to install Premiere CS6 just to check if maybe the problem was just about the CC version. Guess what? It didn't work...

I tried also converting the file with Encoder in .mp4 but after the conversion I can't hear the audio with VLC and, of course, it doesn't work on Premiere.

Do you think it's a Premiere issue or a file problem?

I used those same files for other videos (like this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1X5vsZ-5yI) and I had no problems. Then I updated Premiere, I moved the files in other folder and the problem came to life.

Any idea?

(I'm waiting for my colleague to send me a new mts file just to check if I accidentally damanged the old ones).

Premiere introduces banding in Exports

December 14, 2016, 10:56 am

≫ Next: Erreur rendu previsualisation ?

≪ Previous: Premiere Pro CC and missing audio tracks for .mts files

We've been having this issue for some time... and looking through the forums I see that people have been complaining about this problem as far back as CS6. I should also add that the people commenting in the past have been on both Macs and Windows. So this looks to be an engine problem not a platform-specific issue.

Before you comment, let me ensure you this isn't a color bit-depth setting problem within Premiere itself... this is purely an issue introduced when exporting video out of Premiere regardless of the output files target bit depth.

I can confirm this is STILL an issue under Adobe Premiere CC 2017.

I've also seen subtle color shifting occur when exporting out of Premiere. But I digress back to the original topic.

To preface I should state that each of our guys tasked on attempting to solve this problem in the studio have well over two decades of post-production technical experience.

Source media in the Premiere timeline are ProRes4444 (also tried ProRes422HQ).

Viewing them in Premiere they look perfect. However, the exported file has significant banding introduced into the output file.

We have tried exporting in every single ProRes format available... without any difference in the introduced banding.

We've tried every thing possible we could think of:

1) Setting sequence to maximum color depth

2) Setting sequence to maximum render quality

3) Setting export to maximum quality

4) Disabling metadata at the export

5) Exporting to various tile types and bit depths.

Nothing changes the output.

We've attempted exporting an animation codec version which also has the banding, but barely reduced overall.

HOWEVER... if you IMPORT this project into After Effects and render the timeline from within After Effects.... there isn't any banding at all. So clearly there is a major issue within the export engine that Premiere uses. Our only work around to ensure there isn't banding, as well as not having the color shift I briefly mentioned, is to import the timeline into After Effects and rendering from there.

This is a significant flaw in Premiere that is just mind-boggling that it has existed for at least 4 years at the minimum. Adobe should be putting this problem at the top of their bug fix list for Premiere.

Let me reiterate that our exports from Premiere were set to Maximum bit depth and maximum render quality. And we rendered to ProRes4444 files.... the same format in which the files were sourced... but banding was introduced.
