Hello people!!

I bought recently a premiere pro manual (Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5 Studio Techniques). Well the book seems really intersting but when I want to use the exercises coming in DVD. (Icant open them in my computer>>and Im not trying 2 open them from DVD)...Im wondering where it's the problem...??? does anybody here have the same problem ???? Im thinking to send it back, Ive already checked two DVD:s from the same book...!!

I have the book, can you elaborate on "doesn't work"? I am guessing you are running PPro 1.0 - 1.5 files will not open in 1.0. Is that the issue? Check your version.

Yes indeed, I got the same answer from another forum in Sweden...I'm using premiere pro 1.0v.
....then I'veto send it back...or maybe u know another book dat might be usefull for me using P.pro 1v.??
Thank u!!

Last i knew the PPro classroom in a book is still 1.0 - i havent seen it updated yet. If you are looking for a good general overview of the program, this book is pretty good. Might be worth picking up. Honestly, the lessons are more work oriented than "studio techniques" is anyway, as that book focuses a nit more on concepts instead of practicals.

Hi Jeff! thank u!!
I might buy it then!
About th another question about "the backward clip" do u remnber ? well yeah it doesnt go so fast like U said to me...
There is somethning I'd like to ask u: when I change the speed...to -800 for instance . then the whole clip goes really u know like jumping,,, is not anormal backward speed u know like (it goes like u'r watching a film in an old computer, u know w I mean) wondering why?? . It does the same if I increase the speed....crazy uhn.

Gracias!

Did you render the clip? If there is a red line above the clip on the timeline then it needs to be rendered. The clip you are watching is a preview being produced at run time by the software. When you render the clip, a new video file is created with the effect properly in place, producing the desired effect at full res. The purpose of the unrendered version is to increase workflow as renders take some time to produce. So, to render your work, press enter, wait for it to complete and watch your new, non jerky footage Also note that the rendered footage now has a green line above it instead of red, indicating that it has been rendered.

Side note - unrendered previews will be less jerky if you put the monitor on draft quality. On the top right next to the monitor there is an arrow. Click it and choose draft quality halfway down. Choosing automatic will automatically switch between full quality and draft as it sees fit.
