  • I have often thought that if I could tell the right people exactly what I wanted, they could design it. But I can not figure out what to tell them to get what you want. You want to change the shape of a picture without cutting anything off or distorting it. What would it look like?

    You already know it is not possible, and even Harry Potter could not make a frame of video, or a still picture, do that.

    AE has time remapping, but it also has the abikity to merely change the duration like in PPro.

  • The batch process never made it into Premiere Pro. I highly suggest that you join the people who have written Feature Requests.

    Being able to see the quality of a still was nice, too true. It is not possible currently, but a feature request could help here as well. Although I imagine that your editor would get used to an extra step of double-clicking on the result in the Project Window (assuming you automatically add it to the project).

    Premiere Pro was written from scratch, so many things never got done, or were left out in favor of something else.

  • You mean after it has been trimmed? Yes, it works. The new clips have the timecode needed to recapture.

    You should use the Motion effect, yes. Set the beginning point and then click on the stopwatch to set the first keyframe. Then move to the end of the clip and set the next position. Changing the position, and scale if needed, will create keyframes.

  • They are actually quite easy, and you might have gotten a quicker response on the Premiere Pro forum. It is time to expand the number of people you know, since the ones you already know, do not know everything you want to know.

    Place the long clip in the source window, then set the in/out markers, and grab the middle of the picture and drag it to the Project Window. Then immediately rename the new clip in the Project Window, since it will have the same name as the original. Change the in/out settings and drag the next section to the Project Window and rename. Keep doing this as often as necessary to get all of the smaller clips into the Project Window and renamed using descriptive names.

    The problem is that it references the original clip, and is not limited to just the in/out settings. But they can easily be used as subclips. Just be aware that they are not locked down to just the area you selected. They can easily be expanded, but this should not cause a problem once you know the deal.

    If you really want to delete the original clip, and make true subclips, use the Project Manager to trim the project. That will create all new clips, and you can delete the original. Thos new clips should be just the selection plus the designated handles.

    I’m sorry, but I have to laugh a little. Now that I edit HDV, rendering is a part of my life again. And the export times to WM9 are outrageous, even with Aspect HD and Premiere Pro 1.5.1 – somewhere around 12 times realtime on my 3GHz system.

    And here I thought that mealtime was for rendering! I often need an excuse to stretch or eat or whatever, so rendering makes a great excuse. Or, if you are hiding the fact that you are rendering, lunch makes a good excuse.

    No. But a Page Down and a Ctrl-D does wonders.

    That is a pretty old program, and there are better Microsoft WMV encoders in the newer Adobe apps. However, you can export the AVI and use the free Microsoft Media Encoder to output WM9 files. Cut the frame size down to 320X240, and if necessary to reduce the file size, cut the frame rate to 15fps. A data rate of no more than 512K should do the trick for most video.
