  • BUG with 5.2.1 drivers and Premiere Pro : 16/ 9rendered clips are squished

    Posted by Donat Van bellinghen on October 12, 2005 at 8:59 am

    I’m having problems with the new drivers (5.2.1) in Premiere Pro 1.5 about aspect ratio and rendering effects.

    Steps to reproduce bug :

    1. Create a PPro project using an PAL Widescreen BMD preset (SD in my case)

    2. Capture some PAL anamorphic widescreen footage.

    3. Put the footage in a sequence.

    4. Put an effect on the clip. For example a fast blur. So far so good. If I play the timeline without rendering it first I have some dropped frames but that’s ok because it depends on my systems speed. So I hit ENTER to render my clip like I used to do.

    That leads to an unexpected effect : the rendered video is squished horizontally (as if the width scale was reduced to 75% I’d guess). Seems like a huge bug to me. Can you repair this or does it involve Adobe ?

    I’ve rolled back to drivers 5.1.2. Repeating the exact procedure, with the same PPro project, doesn’t produce the bug with 5.1.2 drivers.

    I’ll wait for 5.2.2 drivers then…

    I too have reverted back to 5.1.2 this morning, because after several uninstalls and reinstalls of 5.2, I just could not get the Decklink to work from within Premiere.

    Having gone back to 5.1.2, I now have presets and output from premiere again

    You are not alone. I got the same problem, but I am still running driver 5.2

    Hi Donat,

    We found the code causing this (we did a change for something else which should not have had an impact on this – obviously it did)

    Fixing it now and will do a cut next week (with the QT 7 support)

    Thanks for the report.

    Cheers,

    Regards,
