Thanks, guys. Just to clarify, I’m editing an SD sequence that has lots of titles and intertitles mixed in between picture.
This sequence will be inserted as a whole into an HD timeline that has two other HD sequences in it, for release and theater screenings.
I’ve been experimenting with Red Giant for deinterlacing and uprezing the SD sequence including both pictures and titles to put in the HD timeline. So I’m not using RG to specifically uprez the titles; I’m not creating titles to separately drop them into an HD timeline. I’m just wondering if after I do the uprez I’ll have to recreate all the titles in that HD timeline.

I guess experimenting will tell . . . it seems Pr doesn’t create separate media for titles–they’re some kind of effect or code modulation to the project file.

There’s a timeline panel button in the upper right corner of the timeline. The drop-down menu gives the video display options.
Sometimes it’s all about the buttons 🙂

Your system is way advanced beyond mine, but I use a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter to connect to an HDMI TV from my Macbook Pro with a single thunderbolt output. Cheap. Doesn’t your Mac Pro have several TB outputs?

Here’s my thread on this from the linkedin premiere group:

Project panel tabs

Robert Withers Pharma-Medical Copywriting and Media

I notice in the Media Browser/Project Panel that the Project tabs keep duplicating, so that I end up with several Project tabs that all have the same same and seem to have the same contents.
Why is this happening and can I turn it off?
I’ve searched through Preferences and several books and Adobe.com without results.
Thanks.

I’ve never run into this problem.

Are you using CS6? CC?
Without knowing more details, I’d suggest you look at Edit/Preferences as a starting point.

There are three things that can happen with bins. If you doubleclick, if you Ctrl-Click and if you Alt-Click. As you can see in the image I have linked to, you may have the doubleclick set to “Open new tab”. The way I have them is the default, I believe.

As Denis stated, look in your preferences.

What may be happening is that you closed a project with multiple bins open. When you then started a new project, Premiere remembered the state of your windows when you last closed. It opened the new project with all windows in previous positions, but with no media, defaulted to Project tabs.

Thanks Steven and all. I thought this was in Preferences but wouldn’t have guessed it was under Bins. It’s so hard to look these things up in books and resources if you don’t already know the answer:-)

I have the same very annoying thing happen all the time, particularly on shared projects. I do not see that the preference for opening bins has anything to do with it. If Adobe could warn you that “that bin is already open” it would help.

The preference for opening bins is the ONLY thing that has to do with it.

If the way you would normally open a bin happens to be the command the preferences have for “open in new tab”, then you create a new tab every time you do this…then, since you really didn’t see this was happening, you keep navigating up, but since you’re in the new tab, the next bin you open creates another new tab, etc, etc.

If the editor doesn’t like this, the editor can easily change the preference to “open in place”.

In Preferences, the General tab, it’s labeled “Bins” (common NLE term for project clip directories since the dawn on NLEs in the late 80’s/early 90’s based on editing film).

Everyone wants some different behavior with almost every part of video editing software, but each person seems to think that the way they individually use the software is the only way it makes sense for everyone…and that’s simply not the case. I use, and see plenty of merit in the current default state of this function, but since I know it’s happening, I leave the tabs I’m opening on the bin I’ve opened and click back into the original tab to see the root project directory, so I end up with each tab showing inside a different bin.

Looks like the second shot is taken from a slightly higher angle. Try raising the height of your camera to the eye level of your subject or even higher. It will be more interesting if the subject’s eye look is slightly up than down.

I brought an iphone movie into my mac using Image Capture — in a .mov wrapper. This imported into Pr but it was really an MOS take–no lip sync.
I wonder how an iphone movie would behave if you brought it into a Pr timeline set to 30fps.

Thanks, Shane. I’ll post to the Pr Pro forum.

Hi Shane,
Is this the same for Pr Pro CC? I’m making titles in an SD sequence that I will want to deinterlace and uprez to HD. The titles seemed to look quite sharp when I did a Red Giant conversion on a test sequence. I’d rather finish editing and then process the sequence than worry about processing the rough cut first and creating HD titles.
Thanks for your thoughts,
Robert

Actually, this was part of my motivation to upgrade to FCP7, to get the more advanced XML export function. Along with other more advanced and current options. But even FCP7 is fading into the sunset. I can still make a splice on 16mm 🙂
