It was an ‘Instant HD’ effect tool’ that I hadn’t even realized was attached to the main video sequence. Was on my editing workstation before I began using it.
All tools and effects were all working fine, then I upgraded my Boot drive and did a fresh install of OSX 10.8.2; Migrated Apps from prior boot drive. Then got a great offer on CS6 Cloud and went for it. Since then a few old plug ins stopped working.
The instant HD was the most useful one; though as I mentioned I had over looked that it was on a clip that really didn’t need it; it was already 1080HD.my error.

Ha ha.
No seriously, Everything is licensed. It’s the ONLY Video that has this WireFrame.
Recently upgraded Computer with new boot drive, Installed Fresh 10.8.2 and then Migrated from 10.6.8; as well as installed to CS6. Perhaps my licensing of my plug in’s didn’t transfer to the new CS6 Premiere Software…? Could that be the cause?
A prior editor to my workstation installed the plug in, so will have to search out the serial and resolve; but yeah, that was the issue.I’m looking at my source footage, and it’s not there; so it’s the only cause that I can see. There is the 1 plug in, that I realize now wasn’t even needed. Live and learn.
Thanks for taking the moments to contemplate and consider this.
Much appreciated!

Bruce,
No, certainly not.
Once you watch the ‘Multi-Cam’ tutorial on Lynda.com you will understand WAY better than any response in mere text.
Create Sequence from Footage; Go to Effects=>Motion and Make required Changes. Personally, I would Render the Video (perhaps also apply any required Color Correction as well) and Render to a separate File that is Either ProRes or otherwise (Mpeg, etc).
Not sure why the other commentator suggested placing the corrected video into another sequence, other than correcting a selected clip and using it with-in a primary edit (placing Sequence 1, Into PRIMARY Edit Sequence).
If i wasn’t so backed up with projects, I’d just to a Screen Share and SHOW you.
Though, if you REALLY, REALLY need to figure this out… I might just show you. There are a few ways for you to see another computer’s screen including https://www.join.me Good Karma doesn’t have a price.
Where are you located and do you have a Very Fast internet connection?

Check out Lynda.com they have allot of Awesome tutorials, that I totally love and rely on.
To nest, you make your first sequence create the rotation and then either Render to another video file, or Place Sequence 1 into a 2nd Sequence.
The way i learned this was with ‘Multi-Cam Editing’, via a Lynda.com tutorial.

Ryan,
You totally get where I’m coming from.
I wasn’t sure about MXF, and certainly knew I had to figure it out. After searching the internet, and watching videos seeking a ‘refresher’ on the updates from the recent years when I was more focused on editing, Realized the best way was to ask right here. Getting out of a long-GOP, CPU intensive codec like AVCHD or h.264 was certainly essential, and considering that CS6 with the Use of Prelude would allow me to do this, it simply makes sense.
Consider that with Color Correction, then Render. Primary Edit (some Warp Stabilization), Render; Polishing (slowing some video segments) and Titles; Render. Intro and Exit Graphics; Final Render to Quicktime H.264 is the breakdown of my work flow.
Which of the 2 formats make the most sense? Quicktime ProRes or the Avid DNxHD? I just installed the Avid DNxHD codec, and my workstation already had a wide variety of codecs from Final Cut (7) Studio, as well as lingering fragments of old projects from prior editors that used my workstation. I know a faster CPU would seriously speed things up, though making the best with what I got.
Another opinion I am soliciting is: Does it make more sense to edit my project in 720HD, considering that I am uploading to YouTube in 720HD? Someday we may require to master to DVD, though I am seeking to Speed up my render times and overall processing.
I realized a couple months ago, that I was expecting ‘too much’ of the render engine because my videos would appear totally fine and ready to rock, I would upload to YouTube and had ‘irregularities’ with Audio/Video sync. Considering that my video projects were between 15-40 minutes long, this was greatly frustrating. My discovery was that I had to expect less and render more often.
Made some upgrades, got faster data devices & storage with faster video card, sure reduced some areas of frustration.David

Great Info Ryan!
The videos I am working with as i mentioned are all AVCHD, and I want to work with a video format that is less processing/processor heavy. My talent screwed up my scene and opened the windows blinds right before our shoot (after I had everything set). I have to use some ‘Warp stabilization’ too because I was new to using a camera and wasn’t aware that every-time I shut it off, the settings were reset. (Aargh!)
Years ago, when I was working with smaller projects I would have video uncompressed, and simply curious how other media editors would approach this.What is the general consensus with all you fellow editors; how would you personally handle this? I have a few projects that we shot that day. Instead of re-shooting, my talent requested that we ‘make it work’.
Considering the processing that is involved for Color correction within Premiere Pro as well as ‘Warp Stabilization’; I’m simply looking for some effective suggestions.
Thank you
David

I have a similar question.
Personally; I was editing regularly with Premiere CS4 a few years ago. To speed up my editing time, I would convert all my video to AVI (Huge files) just to avoid the extra codec times added to rendering.
Would love to have as close as possible to ‘real-time’ rendering/editing. Any suggestions?
My source files are in AVCHD, would love some ideas.
Thanks!

I solved this problem. Took me over a week, though I resolved it.
Contact me if you want to discover how.

Good Day Michael,
I just made the purchase of the same size of Mercury Accelsior, the 480 Gb.
Like you, I have also chosen to use Premiere CS5, Currently waiting for my Accelsior to arrive in the next day or so; and looking to speed up any ‘learning curve.
Wanting to use it as my Boot, Application, and Project Drive. Any pointers or suggestions; Wisdom you have to share?
