Premiere 6.5 Export Settings
I am editing short films for music videos using premiere 6.5. The footage is captured via firewire from a JVC mini dv camera. When I play the edited film in premiere it runs smoothly and the transitions are slick. However when I export it as an MPEG-1 (or 2) using the built in encoder the picture becomes grainy and the transitions are jerky and often pixelated. My PC isn't running any background services whilst processing. I have an AMD 2100 XP processor with 256 Mb of DDR RAM, running on Win XP.. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Cheers!!

That's true. Experiment with compressions and settings. I sometimes have trouble with DivX at times export wise. The audio sometimes rendered does not fit the video, also my VCR will not see the video to tape it but will hear the audio. Dam DivX!
Your system is fine though. You can never have enough RAM though.
I am running at home a XP1800, 16Meg Matrox capture card and 256SD Ram with no issues. Hardly any in program lag at all

The graphics card I use is an all in wonder radeon with 128 mb of onboard RAM. So I'm pretty sure the system is upto the job.
Is it possible to capture the footage as different file format that will make the final file (which will be exported as MPEG) run smoothly?
Should I use an independant MPEG encoder and if so can anyone recommend one?
Once again all help will be greatly appreciated!!

The source footage is captured at DV AVI 568x720 all of the source footage runs perfect. When I capture an hours worth of tape it takes up around 12 gig, which I think is about right.
So you think it would be worth exporting as DV AVI (which is uncompressed) and converting to MPEG elsewhere?

I basically a separate program with it's own installer. It you watch adobe as it starts up there is a whole load of things flashing up on the splash screen as is loads. If you have a plugin then it appears in that list. When you come export a clip or the movie if you click on the settings button the encoder is listed there then click on advanced settings to select MPEG 1 or 2 and all the other things like VBR and keyframes etc
Well at least lower the resolution! MPEG 2 wouldn't be so bad with a high resolution but MPEG 1 doesn't like itOriginally posted by pip

You can capture at a low resolution yes... But it's usually best to capture it high and then re-render it at a lower resolution. This takes a lot longer though, most things I convert to VCD I capture at Quarter PAL resolution (352x288).
If you're making a VCD them make sure you use MPEG1 and the resolution MUST be 352x288. An hour long film should take a few hours to render as an MPEG.

720x576, horizontal goes first But yes that would be ideal. Capturing at half the resolution is fine but sometimes the image jumps up and down by a pixel due to interlacing nonsense that nobody really wants to hear about! A pixel is quite a lot when using Video CD resolution.
