JEB Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 Does anybody have any advise on using PS to edit video? Exporting rendered video for use in PTE is giving me headaches at the moment. john Quote
Lin Evans Posted January 11, 2016 Report Posted January 11, 2016 Hi John, You might ask Barry - I think he may sometimes use Photoshop for video editing. If you could explain what the issue you're having with exporting "rendered" video for use in PT is, perhaps someone could be more helpful. Personally I use two freeware products (VideoPad Video Editor and AVIdemux 2,5) for my own editing. I understand that the latest versions of Photoshop CC have decent video editing capabilities but I don't use CC so can't help with any useful advice. Best regards, Lin Quote
JEB Posted January 11, 2016 Author Report Posted January 11, 2016 Hi Lin, Thanks for your reply. I think I'm beginning to see sufficient light to proceed. One of my problems is selecting the correct encoder and format in the export dialog within PS. I've identified a couple of instruction/training documents that have been of help so I am experimenting with encouraging results. As video is now pretty well standard on cameras nowadays I'm beginning to find reasons to use it. However, I am finding that when I incorporate it into my show which is 99% still images the video needs to be adjusted for exposure etc. Being a subscriber to CC it seems to make sense to use it. Though as you state you don't use CC your favourable "understanding" of its capabilities are encouraging. Having no experience myself of this subject my post had to some extent been intended to see if it generated opinions from those in the know. So if anybody out there has a view I would be interested.

Guest Yachtsman1 Posted January 11, 2016 Report Posted January 11, 2016 Hi JEB I also use Video Pad for anything other than basic editing, which I use the PTE functions. Video Pad is great but takes some getting used to & the free versions keep running out & have to be renewed. Eric Yachtsman1. Quote
michaelr108 Posted January 11, 2016 Report Posted January 11, 2016 Hi John There are some very useful videos on Youtube on all aspects of Photoshop. Michael Quote
JEB Posted January 11, 2016 Author Report Posted January 11, 2016 Thanks Michael, I have found them. I think i'll persevere with PS for the moment. It seems to do what I want. John Quote
