It’s going to be impossible to have an echo continue past the end of the clip because…the clip ended. What you can do is position the Work Area bar over your clip in the timeline, but extend it a few seconds past the end of the clip, then Export as a .wav file, then bring that into timeline, THEN apply your audio effect and the new audio clip now has extra space beyond the original ending point, into which an echo could continue. I think this is what Dennis was getting at.

Before exporting clip, you might want to add a quick fade at the end so it doesn’t cut off abruptly, depends on the source and desired result of course.

Hi Simon,

In Premiere, go to Edit > Preferences > Playback and make sure that the “Blackmagic device” is checked, and then check the “Setup” to select proper output format from Intensity to your display.

Thanks

Hi Ed,

How is the footage being captured – some type of capture card?

Any screen saver, power saver options enabled on machine that might interrupt recording?

Hi Robert,

Do you ever use the “Scene Detect” option during capture? This automatically breaks up your clips into individual .avi files at every scene change. Once all your material is captured to the hard drive, you can delete the Premiere Project if you want – the clips will remain on the drive to use as desired later, and you can certainly review and organize them into different folders and such if need be.

You can then create different projects for different subjects and import/use only the clips you want. Note that within a single project, you CAN create multiple Sequences, or Timelines. So within the single project, you can organize clips in the Bin with folders, and work on several different sequences within that Project if you want.

Thanks

Hi Keith,

If you ONLY changed the audio and video remains the same, quite simply I would just use AME to Export a new audio file from Premiere (takes a minute or less) and then place that into Encore timeline. Have done it many times. Quite painless.

Just export as Windows Waveform 48k 16-bit stereo (default I believe).

Stan’s method may also work fine, but personally I don’t use DL to Encore and like the control of manual method.

Thanks

Correct – if going to broadcast or DVD, no sense deinterlacing interlaced material in most circumstances. For web exports, just set fields to PROGRESSIVE in AME settings then.

What you are seeing might be totally normal for interlaced footage – two fields of video make up each frame, and the fields are 1/60 second apart in time, therefore there will be movement between the two fields. During playback, this aids in providing smooth motion, but when looking at a freeze frame, it can look odd as computer displays are not interlaced!

Try this – right click in the Program Monitor window and find the FIELDS option, probably set to BOTH by default. Change to “Field one” or “Field Two” and see how that looks. Should remove the interlace artifacting. This does not affect final output, but just the preview.

By deinterlacing the footage, you are throwing away half the resolution. If going back to video tape, DVD, or broadcast, better to keep interlaced footage interlaced usually.

However, if exporting for YouTube, or any online or computer viewing, you can set the FIELDS to PROGRESSIVE in Adobe Media Encoder, as you don’t want interlaced video for computer viewing. But generally you would not deinterlace in Premiere.

Hope this helps

I’m on CS6 on the PC, probably changed some shortcuts along the way?

Thanks

Hi Peter,

Under HELP menu, enter “Keyboard shortcuts”.

As for keys to move up and down the chapters, the keys are the UP and DOWN keys -just figured that out myself yesterday.
