A lot of thanks for your contribution, Akribie. I tried it and it worked. Your idea suggests reverting to the old A/B editing system which I find more manageable. I tried overlapping clips in Premiere Pro and then applying the transitions on the overlapping parts and the transitions seemed to...

I have upgraded from Premiere 6 to Premiere Pro 1.5 and I find the new features very useful. However I am finding a particular problem. When I apply transitions they do not seem to work properly and this thing is puiting me off. When I razor cut a clip and try to join it with another clip by...

Thanks for your very useful suggestions. I do not have a capture card. I work with a digital camcorder so a Firewire connection is enough to transfer video to harddisk. I would like to clarify one comment I made in my last post. I noticed jerky movement when playing mpeg or dvd video on my PC...

Actually what I did was that I split my project into 2 one hour+ projects. I did notice an imptovement in the quality. However my major concern now is the jerkiness of the movement. Moving pictures are really jerky. Whenever there is a scene where the zomm is used, the zooming is jerky and very...

Once again thanks for your advice. A friend of mine who uses Encore told me that when he transcodes with Encore the resulting DVD format quality is of a very good quality. However he uses and video editing card (I don't know it's specifications). Does the presence of such a card affect the...

Since my last posting, I have transcoded my Adobe DVD Encore project which is some 2.25 hours long using the Adobe Encore software. However I cannot say that I am pleased with the resulting video quality. In fact the picture quality degraded quite noticeably. There was a marked difference in...

I have just edited a 2hour+ family video in Premiere 6. I exported the timelines to Movie in Premiere and I ended up with new edited AVI's. I have imported these AVI's into Encore and created a project. My dilemma is whether to let Encore transcode the AVI's itself or else to export the Premiere...

Thanks to both WizyWyg and Creamcake. I think I have clarified a very basic but important thing about .vob and MPEG2 files. I will be acquiring a DVD authoring software, probably Encore and I guess the software will take care of all encodings necessary to make the DVD fully compatible. However I...

I am new to DVD creation. I am a little mixed up. I have a digital video camera and I want to convert my videos to DVD. I have downloaded several programs to convert my AVI's to DVD. However some programs simply convert AVI's to MPEG2 whereas others convert them to .VOB files. I have browsed a...

Thanks EdwardMartinIII for your interest. I guess I succeeded in asking a rather straightforward question in a rather complicated way. Sorry for mixing you up. Let me put it this way (hopefully more clear). I have imported a number of clips, added titles and transitions and saved the whole as a...

Thanks EdwardMartinIII for your interest in my problem. After so much trying I finally succeeded to get the required signal and I am getting a colour picture. I have connected a TV and the picture is OK. However problems seem to continue cropping up. Now getting back to Premiere! I have saved a...

Once again thanks for your interest. I am recording through the input socket of my VCR. It is receiving signals since I succeeded to record on VHS tape but the recording was in BLACK & WHITE. I have also connected a TV directly to the output from my computer and also the picture on the TV was in...

Thanks for your replies. I do not have a video capture card. I only have a graphics card with TV out. Ever since my first posting in this thread I have succeeded to record an AVI file onto VHS tape. I used Print to Video. However it only recorded black and white, I guess it's because of some...

I am relatively new to video editing. I have Adobe Premiere 6 and I have succeeded in editing some video clips I took with my digital camcorder. Now I want to transfer the edited video unto a VHS tape. In short I am not succeeding and I don't know whether it's because I'm missing something in...
