As predicted, Premiere starts in a fresh user account. It would be nice to know which files are involved, so we can replace these by fresh ones (copied from the new account). Do you have the instructions that Apple gave to you, Pierre? Or do you know which files are involved? ... View more

Thanks, but I don't think that is a solution. Most of the time people don't want the controls in their previews, so that option is switched off in 99,999% of the cases, at least in my situation. More: I really never used it in 20+ years. ... View more

As told: "Note: Premiere 2019 starts normally."   Premiere 2019 is known as Premiere 13. Quite long ago... Pre-Catalina I think. And Catalina isn't even the latest OS.   Which brings me to this: Did anyone solve te Premiere Pro problem by upgrading to Big Sur? ... View more

RAM preview is not affected by that. It has its own specifications.   ... View more

I think there is some miscommunication here. What I think @MRseif123 is suffering from, is that the cached RAM preview doesn't play in realtime. I am suffering from the same problem once in a while, on a 96gB machine with 3,2gHz 16 core Xeon W, Radeon Vega II, 4tB SSD and 16 tB 4 disk Raid. Can't even play quarter resolution RAM previews in realtime, while Full HD youtube and every other video is running smoothly. That's kind of unexpected, isn't it?     ... View more

Great to hear Pierre! In Cataline permissions are the cause of most evil. It broke Dynamic Link as well. After repairing that started to work again. I'll try the new account trick to find out.   Thanks for your effort to inform me. Really appreciate that!   ... View more

Hi Kevin,   Tracked down some of the plugin trouble (RSMB and Trapcode Suite). Removed the plugins that gave trouble from the Library/.../.../Common/Plug-ins folder, and put those in the After Effects plug-ins folder, to prevent Premiere from trying to load and failing launching.   Now still dealing with the ImporterQuicktime.bundle, which I can not find on my system, but causes Premiere 14 to not start. The only thing I find is in the  Media Encoder Plugin Loading.log: Loading /Applications/Adobe Media Encoder 2020/Adobe Media Encoder 2020.app/Contents/Plug-Ins/Common/ImporterQuickTime.bundle   Feature request: let Premiere skip thire party plugins that don't load in 10 seconds. Saves a lot of pain for many users.   Premiere 13 still starts fine in both situations (even with the plugins in the Common folder)     ... View more

I'm not the only one who was dealing with this Outlook issue (see links). But in the latest version, it seems to be back to normal 🙂 So thanks for challenging me to investigate it again!   https://www.extendoffice.com/documents/outlook/3851-outlook-insert-picture-with-actual-size.html https://blog.gimm.io/how-to-fix-blurry-pixelated-or-fuzzy-email-signature-images/   Some extra arguments and remarks to support my feature request, though:   1. "There is no DPI setting in Photoshop or Illustrator" In Illustrator obviously not - that's a vector drawing app! In Photoshop - yes, there is. Please open the Image Size dialog to see it. And sure, the dpi are related to actual paper sizes, which is logical. When choosing not to Resample, the pixel count stays the same - resulting in a different size when printed - of course.   For print, it is convenient - apart from having a lot of pixels, to set the ppi to >254, because the size when imported in e.g. InDesign depends on that. In that way the size at import is the 'original' that has enough spatial resolution to be printed nice and sharp. See how the same image imports in InDesign, with 3 different ppi settings.    Again: it's nice when an image imports at the intended size. When it's way too big, because of the standard 72ppi, the designer could easily think that it's a high resolution image, which it isn't.   (note: In print, a 300ppi image has to be halftoned in a much higher resolution. The halftone dots [which are spaced in lpi - lines per inch] are build in a spatial resolution more than 2400 dots per inch, for professional offset print.)   2. If it's not needed, and there is no tag (or metadata), why can Lightroom, Bridge  and Photoshop change it in a batch process? And why not enhance Ae to be able to do so? What is the downside?   3. "Resolution is the number of pixels' That's an arguable statement. When comparing two devices or files, it is true. Number of pixels is a relative resolution. But it's of less use when it comes to the commonly used terms 'high resolution' and ' low resolution'. In absolute terms, when no output size or medium is given, the number of pixels is not enough to know whether the resolution is high or low. 1920 x 1080 px is high definitition, and for an sd screen, it is high resolution. But not on a 4K display, or printed on a bill board. A photo containing 1200 x1800 px can be rather hi or lo resolution, depending on the size it's gonna be printed. For a passport photo, it may be enough, but for a movie poster it's far too less. I thinks it's good to distinguish image resolution and spatial resolution, the latter is used for detail in relation to size.   4. I was not talking about .gif, most modern image formats do have a ppi in their metadata.   But to be short: why not add a ppi setting to Ae image output modules? Makes some workflows much more comfortable, without having to go to another step in another app. Ppi is an image parameter anyway. I think it's not hard to add it. (and Ae may continue to ignore it at input)   ... View more

I know about all this, dear Rick. But today,  some applications (like Outlook) prefer 96dpi, can't help it.   Images output by Ae have a 72dpi tag, as you can verify in Phtotoshop. What I am asking for, is to be able to change that to e.g 96dpi, or whatever. Again, I know the number of pixels stays the same, but some applications interpret the images different.     And when using Ae as an image manipulation tool, as explained, other values for the dpi metadata are welcome. E.g. InDesign uses that value to base its previews and preflight on.             ... View more

Martin' explanation is correct - but... I like to use After Effects for batch output of images. And since many systems use high resolution displays today, it would be nice to add a spatial resolution number to the output images. E.g. When working for a mailing, Outlook likes to have images with 96dpi. These are displayed better than the same image (with the same amount of pixels), saved as 72 dpi.  So, it would be a nice extra when Ae could add a 'resolution' to image sequences, since some other apps use this number to decide how to display it. The 'resolution' is a part of the metadata of an image: A print analogy: Photoshop adds the spatial resolutio to its images as well, while InDesign can scale the images to whatever size (which make it hi or lo res in the end product. When checking for output, InDesign can warn for low resolution, because the intended resolution was enclose in the image file).   The same may apply for future applications of old low res movies next to new high res images and movies.   ...
