“AA”?

Also, make sure if you have an NVIDIA card in your Mac, that you have installed the latest CUDA drivers.

However, depending on the effects installed, you may wish to turn off the GPU hardware for the render in case something weird is going on.

Try the above three in that order and if it doesn’t help, post your system specs and we’ll take a look.

Nice Star Wars reference, BTW. I am also guilty of that phrase…

Hi Gerry,

Premiere Pro resolves all of the frame rates both during RT playback and during your final encode and handling any cadence issues without any intervention by the editor. As far as ‘film’ look, that’s just too broad a description in my experience, since you don’t mention anything about grain, color, post fx like a vignette, etc. All of those may contribute to a film look…or not…

Premiere Pro itself supports Speedgrade LUTs or .look files and in our forthcoming release has an expansive, completely new color workflow that I think is pretty amazing (and I’m a jaded Adobe employee!) Speedgrade itself is a full on grading tool with all of the trimmings. All that to say, that I think you can get good quality results based on what you’re looking for today and in the future.

Best of all, I won’t charge you $100.00. 😉

Cheers,

Don’t know for sure, but have you tried the master clip FX in this particular case?

[John Davidson] ” I’ll believe it when I see it.”

I’m okay with that skepticism but I am hopeful and this article offers some encouraging signs.

Not with 2GB of RAM. If you put 16GB or maybe 8GB, it will run okay.

Eric,

Sorry to hear that you’re experiencing a less than awesome experience. Generally, our RED performance is very very good. Below are some thoughts, tips or suggestions that might help.

1 – The biggest thing to know with large frame sizes like RED is understanding the fractional playback controls in the Source and Program panels. If you’re trying to play 4k content at “full” on a laptop or even a decent desktop, then that’s likely your overall problem. In the bottom right of each panel there is a pull down that allows you to set the resolution – Full, 1/2, 1/4, and so on. This will lower the playback resolution which is fine since you’re not likely viewing on a 4k monitor anyway. Check out this: Source and Program Monitors
2 – editing anything large and complex in most NLEs requires balance among the system components. Most important to Premiere Pro is RAM. Depending on the project and the system you have, you should have at least 32GB of RAM.
3 – standard house keeping stuff like this

Hope this helps.

Hi Jeff,

Check out this blog entry from my buddy on how to install Encore CS6 from your Creative Cloud subscription.

Hmmm, it’s working for me. Are you putting the comments in the timeline or in the clip themselves? Maybe experiment and put your metadata in the comment field to see if it accessible?

[Joshua Pearson] “1) Without realizing it, I fell in love with keyword collections. I guess the parallel in PPro, as it was in FCP7, is to build SLX sequences, but they are much more cumbersome than keyword collections. So i dug deeper and am liking using markers and the marker panel. But still very different from keyword collections. One big request would be to select multiple sequences and see ALL the markers, and search them globally… can this be done?”

Premiere Pro has “search bins” which allow you to create bins based on keywords and combinations of metadata. This will include marker data I believe so if you tag a bunch of bits and want to organize around those bits, it should work fine. That said, I don’t think it is a straight analogy to keyword collections. Check it out and tell us what you think.

[Joshua Pearson] “2) For some reason the production team is getting a LOT of external audio, like 8 tracks for interviews and verite.”

Premiere Pro has a very powerful audio engine, but it can be a bit complicated. We are working to simplify it in the next version. There are a lot of good tutorials out there to help you understand how to route and control complex audio like what you’re describing. One channel recently created is by my friend and former Adobe colleague, Colin Smith. Check it out – Video Revealed
