If you try an earlier version you should be able to find one that works with your GPU.
I did.
Resolve worked fine on one computer with a current GPU but not the other. I went back 2 versions and got it working fine.

Hi Lena

Sorry for your issues.

What software are you using? Premiere, Avid or ?

I see the video is 23.976 and audio 48k. Your sequence settings should be the same as video. Unless it has timecode, the audio has no frame rate. If there’s timecode audio needs to be the exact same framerate as video.

Not 24, but 23.976 aka 23.98. There’s a .1% speed…

You can also use Adobe Media Encoder to make ProRes file. In fact any phone footage should be converted to ProRes because most phones us VFR [Variable Frame Rate] rather than Constant [CBR] and edit software works better with CBR.

You can record several seconds of background noise during your record session. In Audition you can use the Noise Reduction tool to sample that area only then use it to apply NR effect.

This won’t eliminate all BG noise but can greatly reduce it.

Also various Effects tools you can try to pick certain frequencies or sounds. Sometimes you have to…

You should be able to create 2048×1229 Premiere sequence. Drop your video into that and resize or reposition as necessary.

Make sure you setup audio for 5.1 in the sequence. You should be able to create discrete channels. Just follow one of the accepted channel orders such as LCRLsRsLfe, LRLsRsCLfe, etc.

I agree with Ty. I use an external lithium battery and have never run out of power, even on long shoots. They’re not expensive and will quickly save you money over alkalines.

You don’t mention what format your files are. I’m guessing H264 if they’re straight from your camera.

Most pro edit programs work better if you transcode to an edit-friendly codec such as ProRes422, Avid DnX, etc.

H264 encoding scheme is GOP [group of pictures] rather than frame by frame. So FCP first has to decode the GOPs to play them. Not…

I just checked SurCode’s site and they still sell it for Premiere.

I suggest checking their support site. Check to make sure they support the current version of Premiere and your license is still active.

An uncompressed AVI file would be so huge as to be unplayable.

For YouTube MP4 is sufficient.

Everyone I know only uses uncompressed video for archiving.

The mic would have to have two mics to work.

I’ve seen dual pickup mics and not sure why it’s even necessary. People’s voices come from one location, their mouth.

Stereo comes from the environment, music, etc.

Frankly I don’t see a need for a stereo vocal mic.

James

AVI files are old school and huge. Do you need it specifically for some reason? Most of us use Avid DnX and Apple ProRes, with H264 for final viewing files.

Uncompressed files are virtually unplayable on most systems. Most of us use them for archival purposes.

Let me know what your client needs and I or others can help.

As is I don’t think you…

If Audio and Video are unlinked you’ll see a small icon showing how many frames out of sync.

If source material has a sync problem you’ll have to figure out yourself.

This is why I always use a slate/clapper board or simply clap my hands in front of the camera to have an absolute sync point.

Mike

Generally it’s good to have separate tracks for room tone. Anything with PFX [production effects, aka footsteps, door closing, whatever] should have it’s own track. You can never have too many these days!

That way when editing and doing your final mix you have the most flexibility and control.

Any good scanner with slide/negative holders should do fine.

I don’t think you need uprez software as even an $80 Epson can scan at greater than 4K resolution.

Nikon even made some scanners years ago just for slides and negatives.

I would scan at double or more the resolution of your video project so you can enlarge, reposition or do moves on the images.

That is a common problem on analog vcrs like VHS, Betamax (not Betacam).

On some machines you could adjust tracking to stablize it or else use a Time Base Corrector.

However Warp Stablizer should help. You can do it in Premiere but After Effects has more controls.

Try and pick your region of interest as the time/date stamp. If that looks stable…

You may be trying to use a proxy that’s not a derivative of your original format. In other words the proxy needs to match the same aspect ratio and I think audio configuration to work.

However you can create your own preset and use them. You might want to try that.

Chris

More details are helpful, like how much ram, drive size, type, etc.

I suspect you’re underpowered as set up. One alternative is create proxies as you seem to be in 6k which is a lot for a laptop to handle.

I don’t use Mac to edit, so I suggest you join our Facebook Premiere group. Lots of pros there on Macs. Ask for Kyle.

Rowdy’s right

You don’t mention file codec, HD, 4K, etc. H264 files don’t play as well on some systems for example.

What drives, HD or SSD? That affects playback. Also try assigning your Cache to a separate SSD.

Clean the cache between projects

Set PP playback windows to 1/2, 1/4 resolution. That improves playback although not as sharp.

And remember…

I don’t know of any way to get that version since Adobe doesn’t offer it anymore.

-20db is normal for video/audio.

Music folks often like -14.

However -20 is most common. Just be consistent

Tom

This has happened to me. Often it’s a result of a damaged file at that point or some probleme with it.

One solution is to mark that spot in/out then render and make sure it’s green. When you export, click “Use Previews”.

If that doesn’t work, try re-importing the clip, or open the clip in a new sequence, render that and re-import.

Or import the…

The easiest way to do it is make a new Adjustment layer over your clip (or duplicate your clip and add to that).

Then go to Video Effects/Obsolete/Opacity and add Opacity. In the Effect window you can keyframe the effect.

Since it’s an obsolete effect then likely it’s been updated and incorporated into Essential Graphics but I haven’t tried it.

Hi Emre

My suggestion is use Adobe Media Encoder and output the footage at 25fps. It should play correctly.

I suggest using Apple ProRes HQ which will play well in After Effects.

Instead of saying you want to “reduce the frame rate” rather what you’re doing is converting to another format that plays the same visual speed.

Best of luck.

Bret

I think Premiere is more accurate than YouTube. However I only have limited experience with either this way. I usually create subs and captions myself.

My tests on Premiere showed it does caps as well as periods.

Premiere sends the audio to their AI, Sensei for processing, which supposedly helps accuracy.

Like any voice recognition program it has…

The Beta version of PP does speech to text transcription. You should be able to output an SCC file (I haven’t tried yet).

However the accuracy is very good.

Just go to your CC account and select Beta apps. Everyone can use it now and it’s no extra charge.

It’s happened to me. I suggest first saving as a new filename.

Otherwise create a new project, copy everything into that, verify everything linked.

Both the others are right. Mini takes composite video. It’s in their specs.

Use that or Intensity but not both. That’s adding an unnecessary step.

Either will digitize and send to your computer via Thundeerbolt, HDMI, USB depending on which device you use and FCP input formats.

Pitch-shifting or any audio time change can only go by so much before it becomes distorted or doesn’t work.

I’ve heard Apple is no longer supporting Firewire on newest OS updates. I would try Daniels idea. If that doesn’t work check if any of your friends has old OS and try that.

If no luck you can buy an analog to USB convertor to capture footage. Most cameras have analog as well as Firewire outputs.

Dave

If you put the clips and audio in the timeline and link them when you click on the clip to add a marker it should add to both.

It concerns me you unlinked camera audio. Now you have no absolute sync for reference. If it were me, I would use Multicam to synch audio, using the external recorder as your main track. The camera audio will still be…

Hey Rick

I’m actually building a CD right now.

What I do is create separate tracks for each song, then import into a CD project. I don’t think Audition has easy way to do what you suggest.

However I watched a good Adobe video with Jason Levine on creating CDs.

Try that, let me know if you still have issues

Bret@Brethampton.com

I don’t know any way to do in Premiere.

I suggest looking for an image in one of the stock photo programs, but they won’t likely move along with your video.

Try one of these FB groups for Premiere. Perhaps someone there knows.

You can export an EDL – Edit Decision List

This is old school but still works. You get a text file with source reels, in/out points, if audio, video or both.

Almost certainly your camera records 24fps at 23.976. Only certain high-end digital cameras and camcorders can record true 24. Pretty much any dvd, blu-ray, streaming, tv is either 23.976 or 29.97. So you’re not changing frame rates at all.

Camera audio is almost never as good as external recorders. They’re 16 bit whereas Zoom and others can record 24bit.

Also better to stay XLR all the way. If you convert to miniplug it may not ground properly without right adapter and you can pick up audio hum.

There’s some filters in Audition for Male or Female voice. However unless you’re already voicing in a higher register that is in the female range I don’t think you can make a believable woman’s voice.
