laptop recommendation?

That HP is essentially my computer in a HP. Mines dual core tho, and I'm not sure if the i5's are dual. the "i" series is an awesome processor tho.

Look into ASUS. I know best buy sells them. They make all the components (MOBO, HDD, etc) so you can usually get more for less. See what they have in your price range.

*edit* I now see it's for captured clips and idk what format they are saved in but if they are flv's then this could help you! If not just delete the folder from the db

I put my flv converter into the db for you to try mam, you don't need to register the product as it allows an infinite amount of converts under 1 min long

My settings are as follows:

Profiles: Mp4 - MPEG4 - Video Format
Video Quality: Superb
Video codec: Mpeg4
resolution: 1280x720 (720p)
Framerate: 30fps
Aspect Ratio: 16:9

Audio Quality: 160kbps (superb)
Audio codec: mpeg4aac
Channels: 2 channels stereo
Sample rate: 48,000hz

Hope this helps dude, it converst flv's nice and crisp for me at least

thanks shaydee but captured clips come as mp4's. they look great played in WMP but look like piss in vegas

thanks for the help roc. i'll let you know if i can get the quality figured out with triple my ram and a better graphic card

Idk if its the same in Vegas but some times in premiere, converted cap clips show up weird in the program but come out fine when I render. Make sure ur bitrate is high enough when u render. 6-9 Mbps/sec is necessary for HD video

fuck fucking around with vegas. roc can you put the activator in db and hook me up with some quality settings for premiere?

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4957798/AdobeCS5Activator.rar

Mp4 H.264
1280x720
30fps
variable bitrate
Target bitrrate 6MB/s
Max bitrate 9MB/s

that's off the top of my head. Lemme know if you need screen caps.

so, the instructions included in the read me pretty much say

step 1: run activator step 2: ??? step 3: profit

it doesn't say when during the installation process you should run the activator. roc? help please?

Install then run activate then profit

so, like before you open it? or when you open it and it asks for a serial? or after you click to do a trial cuz you don't have a serial?

Before you open it

alright, i'll check it out. i thought i did that, but it still asked for a serial.

also, the activator itself is confusing as fuck. hidden buttons and shit, and what the hell is the date thing for?

Fuck if I know. Whatever the hackers wanna do when they crack it

Use one of the serials if it doesn't unlock it. Or just find a keygen quick. The activator blocks Adobe's authentication servers so you can use any serial.

they didn't include any serials for just premiere and i don't want the whole suite. whatever, i'll try some shit

Try the master collection one
