Hi

I have a copy of Camstasia but prefer using premier pro.

I use Zoom meeting software and they have some screen sharing features which you can record. But when I import the mp4 into premier pro the quality suffers. could it be the screen frequency of the browser or something - when the mp4 has a video of me talking the qualitynis great.

To recap: in the same mp4 there is a mix of screen shot and me talking. The images of me are great but the screen capture suffers.

    Report back with the codec details of your file, use the program below
    Free program to get file information for PC/Mac http://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo/Download
    - when you analyze your file in MediaInfo and post a screen shot in the forum, do so in TREE view

    Does your video use a Variable Frame Rate? See https://community.adobe.com/t5/Premiere-Pro/Variable-frame-rate-video-with-Premiere-Pro/td-p/4601935
    If yes, use https://handbrake.fr/ open source transcoder/converter to convert to Constant Frame Rate

    Okay. I figured it out. DON'T USE NCH SOFTWARE FOR MAC if you need it for Premiere Pro (so far). The strange thing is I've utilized screen captured footage from this NCH's Debut, and even recently when provided by a PC user using the software. Worked fine. Solution: Use the free Quicktime Player to record screen captured footage. Works great.

    I'm capturing video using NCH Software's "Debut" which is free from the Web. I cannot seem to get the footage captured to preview or play in Premiere Pro. Also, anything with this footage won't render in Adobe Media Encorder CC either. Has anyone else had this issue?
