Ty-Thank you for your reply! Video Essay (at least for me) is documentary in style but with unreliable or reliable narrator. That may not make sense but think of the book, “Catcher in the Rye”. I’ll be using actors in interview environment but not limited to that. It might end up with reenactment sequences.

I’m just tired of having terrible audio that has to be treated in post to be passable. Even that makes for less than good audio.

I have to use DSLR for budget reasons. I use a Lumix GH5 and its preamp has a background hum but I read that, if you go straight through any brand, the same issue persists.

What I came up as a solution is a Zoom HN4 using XLR cable for a boom and shotgun mic and directly into my camera input.I’d gone wireless from boom to camera and the results are the problem I mentioned but even a direct connection gives the hum!I have lavaliere mics also…

You mentioned a better solution. I’m at the end of the road with no real solution that I trust without guidance.I’d like very much to hear a tested method or suggestion of any kind. Thanks, Gary

I have a similar problem with the phantome Menu, not the crashing or hanging.

I just posted my problem today: 6_19_08. This appears to be a bug rather than a negative feature!

Here’s my post:
__________________________________________________________________
I have a project that has a Menu that was accidentally added from the standard menu library. How I don’t know…

It appears in the Menu Tab but not the Project Tab! In the Menu Tab I can delete any other menu except this one!

When I Check Project it shows up as Orphaned Menu!!

I can Edit in Pshop then track it to its Source Folder and delete it there but it comes right back as a place holder when I Check Project again!

Apart from the ‘END OF FILE’ ERROR that has no solution, this is the 2nd annoying problem with Encore!

I like having a Check Project but what about the other finicky problems that Encore throws up without a clue to a solution?

I hope someone asnwers our posts. I placed mine on the Adobe Encore Forum also…
