How can I turn off the green indicator in the program window, that highlights my blacks that contain no image information. I applied a three-way-color corrector via an adjustment layer. Many thanks!

Compatibility issue Adobe Premiere CS6/Decklink HD Extreme 3D
Hello,
I have issue capturing and exporting video since I updated to Adobe Premiere CS6.0.3 on Windows 7 -no preview in the capture window, and not capturing anything-. I am using Decklink HD Extreme 3D (Blackmagic Design Desktop 9.7.2 diver) and it used to work fine with the CS 5.5 suite. Are you aware of any compatibility problem between this video card and the CS6 suite ?
Thank you in advance, Julien
EDL and Timecode question
Hi,
Please allow me to start by saying that I do not understand timecode at all .
I am trying to wrao my mind around it, and where it falls within the project we are busy with. I have some time to learn about it now, as we are busy with a few things that give me a few days to focus on it. I am trying different tests to try and figure it our, but I am getting a little confused as a result. Here is what is happening.
1) I shoot on a R3D Scarlet. The media is labeled on the camera side, and set to reel 06 (For this test)
2) 4 pieces of footage are shot.
3) Footage is inported into RedCIneX, and exported from there as Editorials. I burn in the following information
3.1) Reel ID
3.2) Frame Number
3.3) Edge Timecode
3.4) TOD Timecode
4) I import this into Premier (I also add the above to the default Metatdata in RedCineX
5) Due to the multiple shots, the clip starts with the following burn in:
ReelID - 006, Edge Timecode - 06:01:20:09, Frame number - 0, TOD Time code - 11:36:58:19
6) I import the clip into a new timeline, and making no changes at all, export a EDL and save it.
7) If I open the EDL in notepad, I see the following:
My question is, why does there appear to be a 9 frame difference between the actual clip, and the EDL details? it is the same at the end, which is 06:01:41:06, and not 06:01:40:23?
This is just the first step to my road towards understanding the mysetries of TimeCode (at this point I feel it deserves the great Capital Letters!)
Once I start understanding this, I would like to figure out how exactly EDL files and Premier work? I have looked around for some pointers online, but am not coming up with much, and I have tested some multiple footage sequences, and the way Premier (or EDL by definition for that matter) works, I dont quite understand the way it exports the tracks - as it can only do one at a time? yet my tests dont seem to show this (Ill run through this question at a later stage I think!)
And of course, the final question I would love to figure out, is HOW important timecode is in our project. At this point, our project is destined for TV, but it is going to be presented as a complete episode. It will be sold as a complete series. Would the broadcasters still need the specific timecodes, or do we then submit a new set of timecode generated through premier?
Once again, I do apologize for the complete lack of understanding, but, we gotta start somewhere!

Thank you very much...
Re: I cant downloading some trial version
On the download page(s), you MUST be sure to read:
"Note: Very Important Instructions".
If you do not carefully follow the instructions,
you will get the error message you posted.

Re: Split one long sequence to many small sequences
It looks like you want to end up with four, smaller sequences.
Make four copies of your pictured 'master sequence',
then delete the unwanted sections in each of the four copies.
Re: "The source is longer than the destination" ?
What happens if you hit 'Overwrite' instead of 'Insert'?
Re: EDL and Timecode question
Do you need to send an edl to someone for conforming or grading?
I have no idea what is causing the 9 frame offset, but unless you
are needing to send an edl to someone, it seems a moot point.
And, with RedCine in your timecode workflow, it's a bit difficult to
determine exactly where things went wrong.
...our project is destined for TV, but it is going to be presented as a complete episode. It will be sold as a complete series. Would the broadcasters still need the specific timecodes...
The source timecode of your original media clips is only important
if you need it for reference in situations like described above.
Once your episodes are edited, the broadcasters will have no use
for an edl of your program.
Re: EDL and Timecode question
Hi Joe,
That is possibly the best, and worst reply I have received yet! (For me of course - nothing against your reply! )
Its great, because it means I dont really need to worry about EDL or timecode, as we are running the project in house, end to end. We are editing and everything here, so it is in one system only.
Its bad, becuase I am wondering (the more I read up about EDL and Timecode) if we still dont actually need it here. Say either something goes horribly wrong with a rendered clip, or worse, the broadcasters request a specific change, or even worse, a piece of footage (other than the original, which we will of course back up in several places ((one fo these days...)) and store offsite) goes corrupt and we need the re-extract the correct selection from the original. How would we know to get the correct piece without the timecode?
To add my own possible answer - If we are doing all the work, from shoot to deliver, and we save the various projects in the various applications every step of the way, if we do lose some footage, I guess we can just replace the footage within, lets say - Premier's project, and the edits and cuts should still remain intact.
Is this correct?
We had a consultant come in to give us some advice, and he was extremely adamant about the importance of timecode, edgecode, absolute timecode etc. It was that day, that I first started getting really worried!

Re: Audio Effects Bug CS6
The error message you got initially about missing plug-ins does not mean they have gone missing from your project. The effects are still applied to the clips in your sequences. They will show up as "Offline" in the Effect Controls Panel. The error message means that Pr can't find the effects themselves in the effects folder.
So first you have to go to the "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS6\Plug-ins\en_US\VSTPlugins" folder and make sure that the PitchShifter 1, 2 and 6 .dll files are there, and that the EQ1.dll file is there. They will almost certainly exist since you can re-apply them. But it's good to check and make sure.
This may be a permissions issue, so make sure you run Pr from an administrator account. You may even have to force "Run As Administrator" when you launch Pr. While you're in the VSTPlugins folder, make sure that the permissions on the PitchShifter and EQ .dll files matches the permissions on the other .dll files in that folder. (This presumes that you can add the other audio effects and not lose them when you re-open your project).
If none of that works, you may have to uninstall, reboot, run the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, reboot and reinstall.

Re: EDL and Timecode question
Joe,
as for the RedCineX being in the mix, as a test, I will take a footage file directly to Premier and see if the timecode stays right. Ill update after the tests (busy with a large Mocha track, so it will be a while still....

Re: "The source is longer than the destination" ?
In my experience, this oddity occurs when clips are loaded into the viewer by means other than double clicking or dragging from the project panel.
For example, if you do match frame command from the T-L, then try to add that source clip to another location in the t-l, you can get this pop-up, despite the fact that you've set up a standard 3-point edit and everything fits.
Re: M2T missing audio in CS6 prem pro
I downloaded your clips, and here is what i get in CS6.0.3.
The audio is in sync, but cuts out before the end of each clip:
In VLC, these clips play all of the audio in sync to the end,
but there was one oddity...
When double-clicking the file(s) to open in VLC, the player wanted
to initially jump to a midpoint in the file and play from there, instead
of starting to play from the beginning of the video.
Do’s anyone know how to contact Adobe, there seems to be no E-mail address?
It does not exist. (Would you like to do a daily check of that inbox)?
There is 'online chat with support', 'phone support', or this Forum.
Frankly, you are more likely to get help here.
You can always file a Feature Request/Bug Report:

Not only is that correct, it is the best way to do it.

I'll bet that guy was 60 years old or above.
Timecode used to be much more important
in the days before non-linear editing.

...And here I thought I was being silly and over simplifying everything
Thanks for the confirmation.

Re: Lagging response of AVC-I and AVCHD Footage on Time-Line
I haven't noticed any measurable difference in Encore, it seems about the same but someone else may have a better answer than I because I do much less disc creation now than I used to.
Re: Audio Effects Bug CS6
Jeff, this is ace. Thanks for this. Why on earth is this necessary though? I own the computer. Nobody else uses it. I do not know how to run it from an Administrator account but I will look it up. Thanks again.
