Hmm ok

How would I do that?

[Anthony Uccello]

I am going to try that asap

however Ive come into another random error….the video plays SMOOTH inside premiere but when I render it, the rendered video vibrates up and down constantly. Do you know what that might be?

here is video footage of the issue

Gotcha

Yes the native file does have black bars,

I guess there’s not way to just trim the sides and the resolution at the same time.

Ill make do,

I appreciate the help! Im normally a sony vegas user but for some reason I have a bunch of videos (like this one) where the audio cuts out after 30 seconds, so Ive had to switch to Premiere to get these working.

Appreciate the speed and advice Jeff

Brilliant answer that REALLY helps!

The one issue I am having is the native clip I am working with has 2 black bars on the sides

Is there a way to trim the sides of those bars off the native file so I can render it black bar free (and without having to zoom in to push them out)?

[Anthony Uccello]

Yes thank you that worked well!

I just realized though that the native video clip has 2 black bars on the side.

Is there a way I can trim the side bars from the video clip or render the clip such that the black bars are removed?

I realize I can scale the video to push out the side bars but then its too zoomed in and I lose part of the top and bottom.

Thanks

Would you say a Xenon 5650 (dual 6 core 2.66ghz) is more useful than the singe i7 6 core 3.33ghz?

[Anthony Uccello]

Another great answer

Thank you

Im going to think very carefully about what you’ve just suggested.

I was looking at the Quadros, they were pricey but maybe the way to go….

[Anthony Uccello]

Thank you for that information really helps!

Im removing the video cards (I thought the bigger the video memory the better :|)

As per a suggestion above Ill be getting 1 SSD for the main install.

Will rendering a video to an SSD vs Non SSD be any faster?

Brilliant answer (although the 2nd link isn’t working)

I’ve looked at the macs, and I’ve spent $5k on PC software (vegas, and creative suite, camtasia, mindjet etc). Think I need to stick with PC on this one.

I’ve found this deal for $3500, if you’ve got the time to take a quick look I’d love to hear what you think
