John & Richard,

I just wanted to say a big thanks to all your help and advice. I order the lights and did exactly what you advised: changed the plug from a US to UK plug and swapped the bulbs from 120v to 240 bulbs…the lights work fine.

Thanks again, Mike

Hi Derek,

Generally you want your project settings to match the settings of your source footage, so at the very least you shouldn’t be using the DV – NTSC/Standard 32kHz preset since your footage is in high definition.

In terms of the export, you probably used the wrong codec or/and used a frame rate that is different from your source material.

Try the animation or photo-jpeg codecs.

Hi Ben,

In the project panel, click on the relevant source file, then from the top menu click clip>audio options>source channel mappings. Then change the track option to mono and that should do it.

Make sure the source file isn’t already on the timeline otherwise the source channel mappings window options will all be grayed out.

Hi Richard,

Thanks for taking the time to respond,

In regards to the bulbs, I’ve already enquired about that with the seller and I’m waiting for a response.

So if I was to replace the US plug with a UK plug like you suggested, and replace the the 120v bulbs with 240v bulbs, you think it will work? Should I be concerned about the dangers of this? (if any). I’ve rewired old UK household plugs before so I’m sure it’s not hard to do like you said, I just want to make sure that this is something relatively safe and viable to attempt.

Thanks, Mike

Hi John,

So assuming the lights are available as a 220v version will all I need to worry abut is the power adapter?

“another solution I’ve used in the past is to make a pigtail power adapter that puts two 120v units in series and makes them 240 volts. Very elegent solution if proper globes are not available. ”

….could you elaborate on this please? I’m not too familiar with this stuff.

Thanks, Mike

Hi Romeo,

It’s difficult to give ‘detailed instructions’ or any instructions when your post is so vague. What exactly is the problem? How is the sound not playing back correctly? If you take the time to be more specific then you’re more likely to get relevant help.

November 3, 2009 at 1:51 pm in reply to: Maintaining aspect ratios after using ‘scale’

Hi Tom,

I’ve actually had similar problems with scaling/positioning when exporting from Premiere. I got around it somehow. If I remember I’ll let you know!

The best advise I can give you is that there’s no need for you to change the 16:9 aspect ratio in Premiere. Most, if not all modern DVD players will do the necessary down-scaling for you. For example, if I import a 16:9 video into Encore, iMovie, Toast etc, then burn it and play it on a 4:3 TV, the video will be played letterboxed with black bars at the top and bottom automatically.

Hope this helps, Mike
