Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro No 720×486 presets?

  • No 720×486 presets?

    Posted by Gary Childress on July 2, 2011 at 11:37 pm

    OK, I use both Final Cut Pro and Media Composer. Given the situation with Apple right now I thought I would give Premiere Pro a spin on a spot since I already own Premiere as part of my Adobe bundle.

    Right away I run into a problem.

    I can’t seem to set up a 720×486 project/sequence.
    720×480 seems to be the only choice.

    None exist in the presets and the settings that might allow me to
    manually adjust the frame size are grayed out and unavailable.

    Even the title safe photoshop files do not include a 720×486 version.

    WTF?

    You can modify a DV-NTSC sequence to 486, but you have to change the Editing Mode (to Desktop). Once the mode has been changed, you can change the resolution to anything you want, and save the Preset. If you have an AJA Kona, the presets for 486 will be included. I would assume BlackMagic cards provide similar presets.

    It’s actually called ‘Custom’ now, not ‘Desktop’.

    Which version of Premiere Pro are you using?

    If you find the frame size grayed out, try changing the ‘Editing mode’ (the very first option) to ‘Desktop’. Now you can customize the frame size.
