How to export HDTV footage with Adobe Premiere 2.0

[siemed]

Hello there,

Can someone please tell me what kind of settings I should use to export HD content to a file in Adobe Premiere 2.0? I have several options (Windows Media, Quicktime etc.) but I can not find the option to export it in High Defenition.

I need this for a showing this week. I have recorde with my Sony HC1 camera, imported the footage in Premiere, cut is and put music behind it, and know I want to export it to a file that I can play as a constant stream on a showing.

Thanks in advance,

Edward

You have a few options. If you want to keep it HD then File>Export>Export to Tape to take it back to your HC-1 and play it from there. You mentioned something about playing it as a "constant stream". You could of course encode it as a Windows Media HDTV 1080 60i clip from Adobe's media encoder to keep it HD and play it from a PC. If you want to downconvert it to SD DVD then you Export to DVD, although I don't know if Premiere's DVD authoring feature permits you to create a looping DVD. Just how do you plan on presenting the material? If you are not showing it on a large, say >32" screen, then a SD DVD should look great created from your HD material.

Thank you ! The part of the Adobe media encoder did the job. I tried to use export to a file, but there you can't choose hdtv.

Thanks again.
