Now with the pending release of their new Mercury Playback Engine, Adobe's about to send a seismic level shockwave that the big boys better be paying attention to. </p> <p>With the Mercury Playback Engine, Adobe Premiere will be able to finally take advantage of powerful off the shelf gamer GPU's and marry them with multi-core CPU's in a 64-bit OS! I could tell you how it looks, but it would ruin the surprise. Instead let Dave Henly show you what's coming down the pike. If it works like the demo everyone from newbies struggling to work with AVCHD to pro's struggling with 4k will be able to benefit! They say it's "to be included in a future release", but it damn well better be in CS5!</p> <p><a href="http://tv.adobe.com/watch/davtechtable/sneak-peek-at-the-new-adobe-mercury-playback-engine-technology/">http://tv.adobe.com/watch/davtechtable/sneak-peek-at-the-new-adobe-mercury-playback-engine-technology/</a></p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/loss-of-mic-sound-on-dvd#post-55830 Tue, 02 Mar 2010 18:52:08 +0000 robGRAUERT 55830@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I was referring to the default settings in Compressor. </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/loss-of-mic-sound-on-dvd#post-55776 Tue, 02 Mar 2010 03:03:53 +0000 fairpaul 55776@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p><strong>Are you referring to the default DVD settings in compressor, DVD Pro, iDVD or all?</strong></p> <p><strong>The particular discs I am talking about have been exported as a quicktime movie into iDVD.</strong></p> <p><strong>Thanks</strong></p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/loss-of-mic-sound-on-dvd#post-55737 Mon, 01 Mar 2010 10:42:39 +0000 robGRAUERT 55737@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>How are you going about exporting for DVD?

I have Premiere Elements 8, and whenever I drag a clip onto a timeline, the playback on the large screen is all discoloured. However, when I double-click the clip in the Media folder, it plays fine in the preview window. I can't seem to figure out how to fix this. I have tried rendering the clip (manually, with background rendering disabled) and I also read somewhere that said to disable the GPU Playback, but nothing has worked so far. Rendering in fact makes it worse, and seems to freeze it up. If someone can help me out, it'd be greatly appreciated!</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/streaming-playback-issue-sound-wont-play-through-pc-speakers#post-52943 Tue, 08 Dec 2009 07:04:40 +0000 sswiller 52943@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>OK... I don't believe the problem has to do with the export.  I have a sequence in the timeline.  It's video that was recorded on a Canon XL2 on MiniDV tape.  This is the video formatting...</p> <p><img alt="Imported Video Format" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2776/4168634617_e5e08b8725.jpg" /></p> <p>I only hear audio coming out of the left channel.  When I open the audio in the preview pane, I see the Pan is set to -1.  If I move it to 0, I can't hear any audio, but I still see levels.  This only seems to happen when I record with the XL2 and the lavaliere mic, and the result is that the audio won't play when I export the file or when I print to video.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/streaming-playback-issue-sound-wont-play-through-pc-speakers#post-52503 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:27:30 +0000 sswiller 52503@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I will have to try this next time the issue occurs.  @XTR-91, yeah the PC speakers are working.  This doesn't affect all videos that we have posted online, just certain videos recorded on MiniDV with a Canon XL2.  We use a lav mic plugged into the front mic jack (1/8").</p> <p>Thanks for the responses.  I will followup on this thread at a later date.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/streaming-playback-issue-sound-wont-play-through-pc-speakers#post-52497 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:07:10 +0000 XTR-91 52497@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Does anything else play on your PC speakers? This could possibly be a sound processing problem due to the electrical specs (e.g. impedance) of your computer's speakers. Your PC's speakers may also have been damaged, having an internal problem of their own.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/streaming-playback-issue-sound-wont-play-through-pc-speakers#post-52492 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 10:07:00 +0000 composite1 52492@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Yeah, that sounds like you didn't export your video clips out with .WAV audio files. If the PC using Media Player either doesn't have AIFF selected as playable or it doesn't have that audio codec then you get nada. If you exported your clip in QT with AIFF files and the PC has QT player on it, it should play uncompressed audio with no prob. BTW, what video format an audio format did you export out to?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/streaming-playback-issue-sound-wont-play-through-pc-speakers#post-52486 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 08:45:57 +0000 cfulton 52486@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Have you tried changing your audio from uncompressed (probably AIFF) to something like MP3?

For some strange reason, when the videos are viewed on PCs, the sound doesn't play out of the PC Speaker. It only plays when you connect headphones or external speakers to the headphone jack. I can't figure out why. One thing I've noticed is that when I change the audio panning in FCP to '0,' I get no sound at all.

I would give that a try first.</p> <p>Also,  my experience with AVCHD is that because of it's compression factor it is very CPU intensive to decode and display realtime in your editor. If updating your PC is an issue, there are several format converters out there that you can use to change your files to a more standard format that will make your editing easier.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/avchd-with-ulead-115#post-44931 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 13:10:46 +0000 gabddb 44931@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I am using Ulead Studio 11.5.  It was working fine,  we would video tape our church service onto a VHS tape, I would use a capture device and then plug it into the Ulead program and edit with overlays and text.  We started using a Panasonic AGHMC 70P with AVCHD onto a 16 gb pg sdhc card.  I can capture off the card but when I put the video file into the timeline it will run slow and/or freeze.  I have tried to change the settings for HD but cannot get the file to run in the time line so I can edit it.  It will run in the library but not the timeline. </p> <p>Now when I am using the old video camera/VHS tape the program will work but will take over 10 hours to burn an hour DVD.</p> <p>NOTE:  Working on a HP Pavillon/triple core processor with 2 or 3 gigs of ram.   My graphics card is reading a score of 3 (windows vista)....can this have anything to do with this problem?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43039 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 10:45:22 +0000 chuckengels 43039@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> Ooops, sorry about that, guess the original question was about CS3.</p> <p>Just trying to help out when I can, and the two are very similar in many ways.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43038 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 10:31:27 +0000 jerronsmith 43038@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> I assume that is because the elements have a 1 year production cycle unlike the 18 months of the higher end software.</p> <p>But who was talking about Elements?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43034 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:32:01 +0000 chuckengels 43034@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> Adobe doesn't do patches or updates to its Elements products very often, especially Premiere Elements.  There has only been one patch in its 5 version history.  They would also rather add flash more than functionality, at least it seems that way most of the time.  I would doubt they will be investigating this issue anytime soon.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/ppro-cs3-stops-playing-when-application-window-is-inactive#post-43030 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 23:44:33 +0000 WarLightUK 43030@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Surely it must be up to the user to start/stop an application.
