Are you referring to placing ‘in’ and ‘out’ points then hitting the ‘apostrophe’ key which deletes that section while moving over the rest of the sequence? Because I have noticed that, too.

If that’s what you are talking about, sometimes it still works for me and other times it deletes the entire sequence after the ‘in’ point. Very frustrating.

You don’t need to use Premiere CS6, but you do need to have it on your machine since Encore CS6 is installed when you install Premiere CS6. You might be able to find it somewhere on the internet. Encore does work on current PC workstations.

Once you have Encore, it’s a very quick process, even though you’re going from Premiere to Media Encoder to Encore. I use it every month.

As I said, if you find a copy I’d be happy to provide more details if needed.

First I encode the timeline using Media Encoder (NTSC DV Wide Progressive is the format I use). Then I use Encore CS6, which is the last available version of Encore but it still works perfectly for me and I have the most recent updates of all Adobe software.

I can go into more detail if needed.

I’ve used BCC before – very rarely – but as I recall it worked very nicely.

I should have been more clear on what I meant by ‘render’. I’m getting a yellow render line, not a red one, so I’m not having any issue with playback. Even the red lined clips usually play back nicely.

I was just trying to figure out why I was not getting any colored lines with the same clips in Liquid Chrome that are yellow in Premiere. And also making sure I was selecting the recording format in the HD100 that Premiere likes best.

Is AVI type 2 as good a choice as any of the others?

Thanks,
Bob

Tim,

Thanks for the reply.

My sequences have the same properties as the video files: 720 x 480, 0.9091 pixel aspect ratio, editing mode is DV NTSC, 29.97 fps)

Interestingly, when I check the properties of the files from the HD100, the ‘type’ is listed as Matrox AVI even thought the unit is set to record AVI Type 2.

Also, the video files I have that don’t need rendering are clips I digitized through the Liquid Chrome from MiniDV tapes before we had the HD100. The extension on these clips is .dif, and they are listed as a ‘QuickTime Movie’ files. Otherwise, the image size, frame rate and pixel aspect ration are the same.

This is not a problem for me really, as render times are very reasonable, I was just curious about why I need to render these clips at all.

Thanks,
Bob

Jacki/Mark,

Thanks for the responses. Mark’s link had the answer.
