Having an odd export problem

Postby Cosmos Studio » Thu Jul 13, 2006 6:11 am

Okay, I've made about 6 video's so far and have never come across this problem.

I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro 7.0 and NTSC DVD footage. My video is finally finished (for the editing part), I've exported it numorous times to check timing an such with the PicVideo JPEG codec (just for the quick preview) without any real problems. Now that I'm ready for the final encode it's not exporting properly though.

I've tried HuffyUV (which is what I always used in the past) and Largarath Lossless Codecs... both of which are exporting the video improperly or incompletely. The first try with HuffyUV actually distorted the video (skipping scenes and the finally freezing at the 3:12 mark of a 5:03 video)... Lagarath I just finished exporting and it seems to have exported correctly, however it's freezing the sceen at 4:16 and the rest of the video is screwed up.

I have plenty of memory free (about a gig) and still a gig left on the Hard Drive it's exporting to, any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

it could simply be that your computer can't handle viewing those lossless files. Open them in Vdub and see if the errors still exist.

Mine can't. Not even in vdub, actually. I just make a random mpeg encode with the lossless exports. to check the export before actually putting them in the finalformat.

They are messed up in Virtualdub, I just need a way to get my edited video out of premiere and into Virualdub so I can finish the AVS editing and encoding, I just can't seem to get in out of Premiere though. I've tried 3 different lossless codecs and unfortunatly I don't have enough HD space to try uncompressed. Any advice?

I've had similar problems in the past and the only way i've been able to get around it is exporting as uncompressed. : /

I'd suggest freeing up some HDD space and giving it a shot, or investing a new HDD.

I'm afraid that's what it'll come down to. Might anyone have a ballpark range of how big an uncompressed 5:03 long video would be? In HuffyUV (not even coming out properly) it's around 3 gigs. >_>;;

That depends on the nature of the video. More effects=more size. I'd say between 8 and 14 gigabytes.

Premiere Pro is unable to export properly using most codecs. Uncompressed or debugmode frameserver are the way to go.

That helps a lot, hopefully it'll all work out now. ^^

Thank you so much for the help! Goes to show though that newer is not always better. ^^;;
