Maybe the banding isn’t evident on a TV. You should check before pulling all your hair out! LOL

Have you tried apologizing? How about a little love song? I bet you Premiere will melt at the sound of some poetry, and will want to play back all those fades for you.

DV NTSC widescreen just refers to 720×480 resolution, 1.2 pixel aspect ratio, 29.97 frames per sec.

What will affect the quality of your footage is not the project settings, but the codec settings used to import and export the AVI.

I’m not sure if downsizing HD footage to SD footage causes banding. Hopefully someone on the forum can educate us.

During your test, did you output the .avi and watch it on a standard def TV?

I will be interested to see if he responds here. I hope so.

I think you should be rendering your animations out in a more edit friendly format. How about something like motion JPEG? MPEG4 does not even contain individual frames!

In the AE project you can choose to replace footage on the PSD, which would swap out the old file for a new one. But if the words are different lengths, won’t you have to tweak the animation anyway??

Unfortunately, Adobe Premiere has never really catered to color correction. Even simple white balancing is overly complicated. Levels is a great way to go, but the interface in PPro is just terrible. Why couldn’t it be like Photoshop or AE?

The reason this is important to editors is because it maintains the length of your timeline.

I agree with Alex, if you are going to use CS3’s single track editing, your best bet is to plan ahead and mark your in and out points 15 frames +/- for 1 sec crossfades.

Or… it really shouldn’t be too time consuming to continue to work the way you are, and ripple edit each crossfade from the timeline 15 frames in and out after the fact. With snap turned on it should be a breeze.

BTW, Premiere 6.5 has a 2 track editing mode if you can get a hold of that. But you’ll notice the workflow is not as efficient when making revisions to your edit.

Exporting out to DV shouldn’t be a problem. But why don’t you export a 30 second test clip, and then re-import like you are planning, and check the results?

I import as Microsoft DV and Export as Microsoft DV and there is no generation loss. Of course I am exporting out to DV tape.
