The Tiff you gave me is limited to 16/235

And I tried opening the mxf by importing in PPRO or PS-64 (CS6 here) without success…
Later on today I’ll send you what I created so you can see it in PPRO There…

Please double check me:
From what I gather fron the link —- I make a one
layer grid 39 pixels wide. In Photoshop. (Like I did in an eprom
But in hex)

layout as follows:
236, 237, 238, 239, 240, 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, 246, 247,
248, 249, 250, 251, 252, 253, 254, 255, 254, 253, 252, 251,
250, 249, 248, 247, 246, 245, 244, 243, 242, 241,240, 239,
238, 237, 236

That gives me a ramp up & down.

I don’t know how to do this in Premiere. I don’t think
This will be correct in Photoshop.

Every time I export a maximum white bkgnd
in Photoshop it shows 255 in Photoshop, but imported
into Premiere it shows up as the same amplitude as existing
white flag Premiere’s bars—-235! Another way of saying this
is: Photoshop 255? Imported into Premiere is 100 IRE on scope.
The two Photoshop people I approached to help on this both
couldn’t do it. Without having the ramp go downward from 235,
and not upward from 235 toward 255.

I default to others in Photoshop because I’m not very good at it.

Happy to help!!

One other thing I’ve found…. If you are used to using both BD-RE and BD-R media… You’ll have to Save an ISO for each media….
It’s not as if you save an ISO and then select media later…. No…
A separate ISO with pre-selected media has to be made for each media….
I ususally Write to RE media until it gets approved, then switch to -R media…

After approval of BD-R media, and dubs are made from ISO, I then delete or archive all footage except ISO…

Frees up space for next project!

I have seen that error occasionally, writing to a BR Disc…. Enough to be frustrating..
I got around it by exporting a BR Image (ISO File)… and then burning the BR from ISO, which doesn’t error out…

Actually, this kills 2 birds with one stone… I usually make an ISO file as a backup after Disc is approved, Deleting all files involved, and Just keep the ISO…

Just to be clear….. Let me reiterate:

Priemiere CS6 Monitors WILL NOT show the difference between 16-235 & 0-255, But the Waveform Monitors WILL Show the difference between 16-235 & 0-255, Even with Display card set for 0-255. (this also explains a color difference in the image, which is an altogether different subject! :(! )
Camera Capture Card outputs Might show 0-255 levels if 0-15 & 236-255 clips are disabled–Check your Capture Card Settings!)

Encore CS6 monitors WILL NOT show the difference betweeen 16-235 & 0-255, EVEN WHEN the input per-rendered formats Support 0-255!!! But WILL STILL BURN 0-255 Levels, Based on the Pre-Rendered formats indicated in prior post… Camera Capture Card Outputs Might show 0-255 levels if settings described in last paragraph are set correctly–Again check your Capture Card Settings!)

Yes, it is confusing…. but it does eventually work!

[Jan Janowski]

I can only speak for CS6 programs, but, I’ve got to ask….. What were the audio settings you used in Premiere?
and in Encore, when you imported that file from Premiere, did audio on computer sound identical to Premiere?

Also… Check your BR Player…. Is the audio settings there correct for the audio settings in Premiere and Encore?
Also… Check settings on Computer Player software… Do those match the BR Player

I’ve never encountered this, so I’m trying to come up with a senerio that may cause this… Its got to be incompatible audio settings somewhere… ???

[Jan Janowski]

As it turns out… There will be editing needed, and Color Correction needed. Audio this time is good… SO… It will take longer… and contain at least 4 edited pieces per DVD…
It’s time to turn my mind off, and just do the work!!!

Let me improve on prior post.
I playback YC off vcr to DPS framesync with NR, and embed
Processed Audio if necessary in serial digital. That is fed to CC and then to MX02 all prior to capture.

[Jan Janowski]

If it’s a consumer camera, it most likely will need cc.
I do this as I capture, along with audio correction if necessary.
Have a Videotek color corrector I got on cheap and restored it
with new rotary encoders
