Premiere Pro CC Export To Tape

[Kevin Monahan]

[Marcus Smith] “Does anyone know if the (supremely terrible) export to tape function in Premiere got the much needed overhaul in CC?”

I do. There is a new Export to Tape panel that is available with installed third party hardware.

Hi Kevin,

Great news! Is it any good?

Thanks,

Marcus.

I don’t have a third party card in my rig, so I wasn’t able to test it. From what I’ve heard, it’s pretty awesome, though.

No FireWire support then? (Have a client who can’t see to export to tape (to DSR-11 or similar decks) in CS6: no signal in video.

There are two Edit to Tape panels now, the existing one for DV/HDV and a new one for SDI.

Thanks Kevin!

Hi Alex,

The main difficulty in getting DV export to work with CS6 is that the Mercury GPU-acceleration must first be set to “Software only” for some reason.

Awesome, thanks Jeff. (Met a couple of your coworkers at NAB, cool dudes; missed you there.)

I think the client already tried that (setting GPU acceleration to software), but I’ll email him to make sure.

Thanks again.

Hi Alex,

Wish I could’ve been there, maybe next time.

There are actually several hoops to jump through to get DV output working, took me a while to succeed the one time I needed to do it with CS6. Also check under Edit > Prefs > Playback and set up the various checkboxes for the DV Output. Audio also needs to be enabled or you get a silent movie on tape. Don’t have access to the CS6 PC right now to look at the options or I could be more specific.

Thanks
