I’m getting the same error, and even when I downsize files, I still get it. So I hope you figure it out soon becasuse it’s driving me nuts. It says I have plenty of room. I was just wondering if you figured out what’s going on yet?

No, after. Cineform still hasn’t responded, which makes me think they shouldn’t call it “support” on their web page. “Hang out to dry” would be more like it. Adobe, however, actually said tech support would help as a complimentary support case because of the error message. They couldn’t figure it out either, but I finally figured out that the PPro effects preset files in the user’s folder, not under the program folder, somehow got moved from their folders or were corrupted. I actually found three of them. Deleted them all, and restarted Prem Pro, and it is now working fine.

I’ve been having the same problems. Seems to hang up when I have some Slo-Mo, even through it plays fine in the timeline, and that sections exports out fine in a test. Unfortulantley,k Aspect HD tech support now says that despite doucmentation to the contrary, HD Link can only eport ONE m2t stream at a time, meaning you can’t break up a glitchy sequence into smaller, chunks which export with no problem. I’m having it hang up in the last few minutes of near hour-long clips. Tech support calls it a “bug” but I call it a major problem. I’m in two weeks trying to get a 76 min show onto HDV tape. That, in my opinion, is not acceptable for a peice of software that advertizes HDV export support. It’s the sort of thing that drive users to FCP.

That’s the main reason I’m trying to upgrade from HDV, plus getting prepared for the HVX200, if I can also get around the price of the P2 cards–big expense and too little running time for footage–another big issue in NOT buying the camera right away. The Black Magic card has been recommented by others. I’m on a budget, so I want to make sure it’s going to work and not have to spend thousands getting it working.
Thanks

I thought Avid express uses dvcpro natively. I was told it would soon be able to use dvcpro hd natively, but I’d like to avoid editing with Avid.
Don’t Blue Fish, AJA and Black magic all convert dvcpro hd to another codec? And if so, what is it exactly that Premiere Pro is using as an HD codec. And what the computer/cpu requirements are.
My question basically is: I’d like to shoot in 24P dvcpro hd and edit on premiere pro. If not, my options are to shoot sony hdv (wich I’ve already done) or look into Avid or find a FCP editor. The Sony HDV is working okay, but it seems to struggle with any video efx and color corections, and most speed changes are filled with flickering, even with video options set to deinterlaced or flickerless. I still don’t get the smooth slow motion I’ve gotten on my Velocity Dps system. At this point, I’m trying to see what I’m up against if it shoot with a Panasonic 24P HD camera.

Sorry, I meant the HDC27H. But regardless, dvcpro hd in 24P mode is what I’d like to shoot on, but that doesn’t answer the question if Prem.Pro can handle dvcpro hd or any dvcpro format.

thanks, i’ll give it a shot, and see how it goes.

If you look at the pre-release, it’s going to sell for $6100, support DV TAPE in addition to the P2 chip, so I think it’ll impact quite a bit on the SONY HDV Z1.

True enough. And I doubt the camera will actually come out before the end of the year. But DVCPRO HD in general, know of any Prem. Pro support in the works?

I’ve gone through all those problems. I open a 24p project even if I shot it in 29.97 24p on the Panasonic dvx100a. I do this because it sees it that way, but it plays back fine and outputs fine, even though the “info” box says 23.97 for the frame rate. I think this is the only problem, but it’s playing it correctly. And it doesn’t want to render it, and it would normally if you brought in footage shot with another camera at 29.97. If you open an ntsc 29.97 project and bring in dvx100a footage shot at 29.97 but in 24p mode, it wants to render it, and it stutters. You don’t have to re-dig (I didn’t), just import into a 24p project. Also, exporting directingly to DVD, I use ntsc 4×3 7mb cbr setting, and the DVD looks great and plays fine. exporting to an avi file: I use microsoft DV AVI, square pixels, no compression, no frames (progressive scan), and that plays fine as well. I think I imported that avi file into encore for a test dvd, and it was good. But for dvd screeners, I just export directly out of pre pro.
This all took hours of trail and error, and a bunch of messed up avi files and dvds. No one said to do it that way, I just ended up doing it because it works.
