As others have already noted, those numbers are off.

[Oliver Peters] “The other problem I have with Premiere is the push for native media all the time, with no fallback to transcoding.”
AME and Prelude both provide transcoding workflows should you wish it. AME provides a background process through watch folders. Prelude provides partial ingest as well as tagging and subclipping as part of the process.

July 24, 2014 at 10:42 am in reply to: Crash pasting text from AI CC into Premiere Pro CC titlerI can confirm this behavior. I will ask the Premiere Pro team, but my guess is that you’re ultimately trying to paste a vector (math representing shapes and color) into a raster (actual pixels with color values, etc.) and that is creating the issue. If I get anything that says differently, I will let you know.

Peter,
Premiere Pro does have a pretty good scaler as noted by others. With Premiere Pro CC 2014, you have a new option called Set to Frame size, which allows you to ‘scale’ the frame to fit your sequence settings, but does not rasterize the image and thereby giving you room to do pan&scan should you wish to.
The Premiere Pro reference PDF is pretty handy to have and you can search it to find the command and its definition. You can get it here: Premiere Pro Reference PDF
Here’s the entry for the command in said PDF:
Use the Set To Frame Size command to scale an image to the sequence frame size without rasterizing the image. When you use this command, the native pixel resolution is preserved, letting you see the sharpest resolution when you zoom in on an image.
1 Right-click (Windows), or Control-click (Mac OS) an asset in a Timeline.
2Select Set To Frame Size.
When you select the Set To Frame Size command, the Scale To Frame Size setting is toggled off for improved playback performance. -

Sorry you’re having some problems. I’d recommend updating to 10.9.4 which address some issues that we identified to Apple. Also, make sure you have the latest version of Beauty Box (that goes for any plugin you use).
If you still have problems, one thing to try is to temporarily disable the OpenCL/CUDA hardware acceleration (assuming that you’re using it). Sometimes, issues can be related to the graphics acceleration and temporarily disabling it can help you narrow down where your problems may lie.
HTH,

If you search for tutorials for tilt-shift with After Effects and Photoshop, you will see a bunch. In Photoshop, it’s now a filter and pretty easy to apply. Just take a video in, convert it to a smart object and apply the tilt-shift.
It is a nice effect.

I’ve got 24gigs right now but I’ll keep an eye on RAM usage and upgrade if it become a bottle neck. What about project file size? I know FCP 7 would start crashing left and right if a project got to be over 90megs. Is their a similar ceiling to PPro? Also, someone else brought up timelines and in my experience with FCP 7 it was timelines that ballooned project file sizes, not really the number of clip in a project.”
Andrew,
The project file size in general shouldn’t matter, but as a cautious fellow, I’m all for keeping it smaller as a precaution. The biggest thing that I see that balloons project sizes is a lot of extra clips that are useless in the project. This is why I’m always a big fan of the Media Browser personally. The other thing that can make projects bigger is heavy usage of Warp Stabilizer. This stores a lot of keyframes and data directly in the project which if many/most of your shots have WS on it, will start to affect performance.
HTH,

I would disagree at a philosophical level. The best people can edit on anything and often do. Talent doesn’t need a specific tool. And as mentioned by Fincher, Coen’s, etc., some of those best people can edit on Premiere Pro. Many still edit on Avid. Some switch to FCPX and so on…
