Audio & Video are not matching up in Adobe Premiere CS3?

yo

first off, i use a Panasonic PV-GS500 camcorder. i have an imac and i edit on adobe premiere cs3.

ive tried 2 camcorders and 2 firewires. these are not the problem.

after im done capturing, when i start editing the footage, the audio is all messed up and the audio drags far behind whats going on in the movie!

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

thanks
 
yah with big programs from adobe, EXSPECIALLY with video editing you will need a lot of ram for your computer to keep up
 
I HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH PREMIERE 2.0

HOW MUCH RAM DO YOU THINK IS NEEDED TO MAKE

THE PROGRAM RUN SMOOTHLY?

ALSO HOW MUCH BETTER IS CS3? WORTH THE UPGRADE?

I HAVE HEARD ABOUT THE RATE STRETCH TOOL WHICH

SOUNDS USEFUL FOR SLOWING DOWN / SPEEDING UP

AND IS THERE A BURNED LENDS EFFECT IN PREMIERE

LIKE THE EFFECT YOU SEE ALL THE TIME IN TEDDYBEAR CRISIS

AND HOW DO YOU GET THE PLAYBACK MONITOR FULL SCREEN?
 
theres a button called caps lock, press that.

cs3 is definitely nice, that stretch tool is handy and you can do ramped slowmo right in premiere which is very helpful. There is, however, no "burned lends effect", or film burn as most people would call it. I dont think any editing program has that, you might be able to find a plug in but chances are you'd have to pay for it. One way i've heard of it being done is to film a flame, like of a candle for example, in the dark and then key out the black. Film burn only looks good if you can get your footage to look film-like, otherwise it's a joke in my opinion.
 
you might've just been running a lot of stuff in the background. Did you restart your computer since it was running sluggish?
 
Thanks for the advice i'll try the candle trick!

Still think I need more power, I am trying the CS3 upgrade

but it wont let me do it with out 1gb of memory

Has anyone got a good tactic for editing with music in Premiere? I have

seen some vids that are bang on with the cuts and beats - any advice

on getting this right?
 
Well I'm not sure on CS3's interface and functionality, but all of the other Premiere versions I have used require you to render your footage. You should notice a red bar on top of your timeline. This won't show up on raw captured footage, however if you mucked with it in any way it will come up. You have to press enter and it will render the footage so it will be running off your hard drive, as opposed to your RAM card. I think the Premiere programs are excellent for this feature. Sure it eats a lot of hard drive space, but your computer runs much more smoothly than any other video program I've used.
 
like leckett is saying, video always gets screwed up without consistent rendering. Also 2gb is vital when edit. I started with 1.5, and i got extremely impatient.
