Premiere- bad quality problem

[rankz]

I am having problems editing some footage i captured. The footage i captured is 29mins long, and runs fine on Windows Media Player. However, when i come to edit in Premiere 6, i preview the footage and its lost around 20 frames per second !!!!!



So, i try and save it. Then watch it on WMP, and it is about 3-4 fps !?!?!

Can somebody please help.

Hi, Are your project settings correct ie. Pal not NTSC - Frame Rate 25 fps and not 30 0r 29.997fps?

[rankz]

yeh. its in PAL and 25 fps.

I have the same problem with another clip i tried. that was same settings 2.30 mins long

Why use premiere to edit video? Are you adding transitions and stuff? If all you want is to cut a few scenes out, use Virtual dub instead

i'm not using Virtualdub because i want to delete most scenes, and only keep a few. then i want to re-arrange them and add backing music. So i find Premiere easier to use for this.
