100% CPU Usage in CS5.5 Premiere Pro during export/encoding

I am wondering why my CPU usage is so high during exporting of my videos. My counter shoots up to 100% as soon as I start and hovers at 95% throughout the whole process. This seems dangerous to me so I wanted to bring it up here as I haven't found anyone with this same issue on this website or google. Here are my system specs:
i5-2400 CPU @3.10GHz
6 GB of Ram
64 bit windows 7
Geforce 660 ti graphics card (2gb)
They aren't top of the line but I feel like it should be capable of encoding. I've cleaned my fans and tried using avi and h.264 formats which both led to the same issues.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to premiere pro so I'm sure I left some useful information out above.

"...the same results"
This means high CPU usage, right?
Correct
Are your exported media files ok?
I've only completed one because I was freaked out but yes they are fine.
I guess the thing I'm worried about is my temps going up really high because of the 100% usage. I thought that they were both entertwined as in high usage = high temps. I'll look for a temperature program to run while encoding and I'll monitor how high the temps get. You've given me hope here as I may have been making mountains out of mole hills. If the temperatures are high would you recommend more fans in my desktop?

HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fn - DNS issue, hundreds of UDP connections affects my router 100% CPU usage

Hi all,
We've bought about ten pieces (HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fn), tested only one the other 9 are waiting for their time to be sent in our branch offices. The MFP works fine, no complains till later that day I noticed that our Mikrotik Router was struguling with high CPU usage, it took me some time to find the issue and it was the new bought MFP. Don't know why but it creates hundreds of UDP connections and almost 100% CPU usage goes to DNS service. As soon as I shutdown the MFP and delete all the connections everything goes back to normal. I've disabled almost all services (HP web service, Ipv6, SNMP, AirPrint, SLP, LPD, WS-Discovery, Bonjour), leaving only Ipv4 but without luck the issue persists. Here are some print screens confirming my saying:

Music store & 100% CPU usage

I've had this problem on my newly built computer, and my older machine. When I browse the iTunes music store, the status bar on the top will often move like it's opening the music store, but it'll do this for a long period of time (several minutes) and iTunes will work, but the music store will not load, and you cannot click the 'X' to stop the contacting of the music store. During this time if you open task manager, iTunes uses 100% of CPU resources. If you close iTunes it still uses 100%. you have to end the process in task manager in order to make it stop. On occasion the music store will work to view maybe one album, but if you search for another album, or click another link it'll do the whole not-responding-100% CPU usage cycle again.
All drivers are up to date and like I said it's done this on two seperate computers of mine on the same iTunes account. I also have a laptop and the music store works completely fine on it. It's only on my desktops that I have this issue.
Some specs on my machine if this will help
Asus motherboard
AMD Athlon XP 4000+ processor
2gb Kingston 184 pin DDR ram
Seagate SATA II 160 GB HD
Windows XP PRO service pack 2
thanks for your help!

I'm only guessing here, but perhaps iTunes is having a conflict with another application. If you are anything like me you probably install your favourite applications on all your computers. As a shortcut to troubleshooting, perhaps consider an application you have installed on the desktops, but NOT on the laptop. Then try uninstalling that application from your desktop computer and test iTunes.

Distiller 8 and 9 both locking up, 100 % CPU usage

Not sure if its related, but probably, since it happened right after...I just transferred everything from my quad core mac pro to my new 8-core Mac Pro. Everything went well, but now Distiller 8 starts and then sits and gives the beachball of death, and one of the cores shows 100% cpu usage. (I have that utility that shows memory used, CPU usage, etc.). I hadn't bought Acrobat 9 yet so I downloaded it and installed, and Distiller 9 does the EXACT same thing. The ONLY thing I can call an "error message" is that I can see in the window after it launches is "Error in /Library/Application Support/Adobe PDF/Settings/PDFX4 2007.joboptions:/CheckCompliance out of Range."
That message may have been there whole time, even when it worked, though. I don't know. At any rate, I need distiller working! Any ideas?

Glad to hear all is well. Preference files can cause big problems. Eons
ago, in the 1980s, I used a communications program called Red Ryder. I
loved the program. After it was updated to a new version (it might have
been called White Knight by that time), I started to have terrible
problems. I wrote to their technical support. They couldn't duplicate
the problem. It couldn't happen etc. I eventually got a little hot under
the collar. After all, if I couldn't use my modem, I couldn't check my
email, etc. It turned out to be a problem with my preference file when
converted to the latest version, that was causing the problem. Since
they always started with a new preference file, they couldn't duplicate
the problem that was obvious to me.

[10.1.2] Protected Mode causing 100% CPU Usage/Extra Processes on Win XP 32-bit?

Hello,
I'm not 100% sure if the two are related, but I have a client who was seeing 100% CPU usage using Adobe Acrobat Reader X 10.1.2 on Windows XP 32-bit and Firefox 11. The acrord32.exe process would hang around after closing the main window and eventually leading to tons of processes and his CPU at 100% use. I believe disabling Protected Mode may have solved this issue. I didn't see it documented anywhere so I figure I'd post about it here and see if anyone else was seeing this resolved as well.

I noticed 'only' 50 % CPU usage. Not during Reader usage with ~ 20 %, but it started after closing main window.
Two instances of acrord32.exe were created - the moment pdf was opened - of which one was using zero CPU.
After opening another pdf, 2 more processes were created, so 4 in total. Have seen 2 of them using 100 %.
Issue is easily recreated.
This is all in 10.1.3, no fix from Adobe, only THE fix from you: turning of Protected Mode!
After which now only one proces is created, with 1 to 3 pdf documents opened at same time.
This instance is then nicely shutdown after the last pfd is closed.

Recently FireFox often has been causing 100% CPU usage and locks up until it finishes the process (various ones). Clearing cookies/cache didn't help. Any ideas?

Windows 2000 SP4, 1g RAM, Firefox 9.0.1
We keep IE6 and Firefox open simultaneously for 2 different mail accounts. Firefox was always much faster even with 3 or 4 tabs open, but for the past couple of weeks when trying to update a screen the CPU suddenly goes to 100% usage and of course nothing will move until the particular process is finished. Closing one or more tabs does not help. If I close Firefox completely with Task Manager CPU usage goes back down to nil. After restarting Firefox CPU usage may or may not go back up depending upon whether it tries to continue the previous task that was locking it up.
It did not do this with Firefox 3.6 but then again it didn't happen immediately after updating to 9.0.1 either.

100% CPU usage occurred most often toward the end of the working day when busy trying to print on-line postage. We don't have any memory-consuming plugins but according to the knowledge base articles Firefox memory usage can gradually increase during the day even if you do nothing. It seems that may be the problem so we close and restart Firefox more often now as that usually fixes the problem. However, if we get stuck on a particular website update that causes the CPU to to go 100%, we can always start Firefox without previous tabs so the update will stop, or simply use a different browser until we have time to let the computer play games with itself.
So our workaround of restarting Firefox turns out to be the final solution (until we find something better - will post it if we do). Vic

K7N420 100% cpu usage

Apologies in advance for a long post but I'm stretched beyond my technical abilities to solve this thing. I was running a virus scan a week ago (no issues, it had just been a long time since I ran one) and while I was away the machine restarted itself when it shouldn't have. It was waiting at the redhat login (dual boot XP and redhat) when it should have been waiting to tell me the scan was done in XP. It never booted properly again. The HD reported fatal unrecoverable errors. I bit the bullet and replaced the drive with a Maxtor 80G 7200rpm drive and loaded XP Pro with no issues. Loaded Norton, updated it twice and proceeded for Windows updates. No issues, device manager has no conflicts. HOWEVER, the machine is running no apps (they aren't even installed!) and taskmanager reports 100% cpu usage and no processes running except system idle which jumps from 97 to 99% repeatedly. Somehow I managed to revive the original drive (wrote zeroes to it and ran scandisk several times and it reports no errors now) and tried it with the same problem. I've gone so far as to install 98se (yuck) on the original WD drive and it is using about 28% cpu, again with virtually nothing installed. I ran stinger off a floppy as well as Norton several times so the drives and MBR would appear to be clean. The RAM is appearing properly on both OS's and always no applications running and no processes showing as using anything. I'm stumped.
Any advice is welcome.

GlennVidia, first thanks for helping this dumbass out. I ran the memtest overnight with no issues. I just reinstalled XP on the new Maxtor drive. I am using the 2.03 drivers. I just installed PCAlert and it shows the following voltages: Vcore: 1.74, 3.3 is at 3.34, 5 is at 5.03 and 12 is at 12.18 with a cpu temp of 118F. I have installed no other apps including anti-virus. The cpu usage is bouncing between 44% and 65% cycling every second...you can set a clock to it. (Hopefully that triggers someone's memory?) No processes showing as using resources in task manager besides system idle and an occasional hit for task manager itself. Device manager has no issues. I changed the ide cable and reseated all cables to and from the mobo.
You mention usb...I'm not using any usb devices but will gladly kill it in DM if that is what you are suggesting for a test run.

Microsoft.Exchange.AddressBook.Service.exe 100% CPU Usage

Hi,
We have an exchange server 2010 and the Microsoft.Exchange.AddressBook.Service.exe used 100% CPU Usage suddenly. However, after rebooting the server, the CPU Usage of the above .exe is back to normal. Client cannot connect to the exchange server during
the high CPU Usage of the above .exe.
Any ideas for the above problems? Thank You.

Hi
Microsoft.Exchange.AddressBook.Service.exe is related to OAB function.
Maybe mobile or client fails to download will cause this problem.
What was the fix for this?

DotMac Translator 100% CPU usage

During the last few weeks I have a process called dotMac translator running and it's taking 100% CPU usage, I can kill the process off but it just comes back after about 10 minutes.
Does anybody have any ideas on what's causing this and how to fix it.
Thanks
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.10)

run the 'top' utility and see what the processes are. You will certainly see some oracle procs in the list. can you post back the output here so we can review it?
Also run the command vmstat 10 130 whilst the cpu is at 100% and post back.

Queue consumer stops with 100% cpu usage

I'm trying to use Berkeley DB queue with transactions. When I tested what happens when transactions with DB_APPEND are aborted I found that while it works and DB_CONSUME correctly skips over rolled back records, unfortunately extents that have those records are never deleted, which causes database to always grow. Next I tried DB_CONSUME with database opened using DB_INORDER flag and it seems there's a serious regression in Berkeley DB that causes it to loop indefinitely with 100% cpu usage when it encounters a rolled back record. I tested various versions and found that this bug doesn't happen with 5.1.29, but it is reproducible with 5.2.42, so this regression might have been introduced in 5.2. I have also tested 5.3 and 6.0, and both have this behavior. There may be something wrong with the way queue records are rolled back, one indication of that would be that in 5.1.29 doesn't have neither of the two problems I found with DB_QUEUE: extents are deleted after being consumed, and there are no issues when consuming with DB_INORDER either.
You can find Python code to reproduce this issue here:
https://gist.github.com/snaury/027a3c546f5b0a62a440
Sorry for using Python and not e.g. C++, but it's a lot shorter that way.

We have looked at the issues and they are valid. We will roll the fixes out for this in our next release of BDB. The test case was very useful and really helped to speed the process up. If you have any questions, please contact me directly at [email protected] Thanks again for bringing this to our attention.
thanks

Roto Brush issue in CS5 Premiere Pro

I am a new CS5 user with a week of learning under my belt. (My previous experience was splicing 8mm film together when making films as a kid.) I am hoping someone can advise on an issue I am encountering in CS5 Premiere Pro? (I realize Roto Brush is a tool in After Effects, but I am having trouble with the output of the Roto Brush tool in Premiere Pro.)
I opened a .VOB file (taken from a DVD) in Premiere Pro (first I changed the extension to .MPG). It opened as 720 x 480 at 23.976 fps. No problems scrubbing through and using the Razor tool. I selected one of the small razored subsections I made from the video, and opened it in After Effects using the Premiere Pro menu selection: File>Adobe Dynamic Link>Replace With After Effects Composition. No problem opening in After Effects. I learned the Roto Brush tool and it also worked great as I successfully masked out a moving figure - looks great. But ...
When I return to Premiere Pro, the After Effect composition does not display the same as it did in After Effects. Specifically there appears to be some kind of mask/motion mismatch, and so a bluish border will appear on some frames around the figure as it moves. In After Effects the rotoscope is perfect, but in Premiere it is like a poorly done rotoscope with the borders of the figure messed up. I am hoping the comparison images below will make this clear. The image on the left shows the perfectly rotoscoped figure in After Effects, and on the right the same frame but in Premiere Pro. Note how the image in Premiere Pro has a messed up border around the figure?
Has anyone experienced this or know why it is occuring? I can think of some possible work-arounds that could be tried, but the dynamic link method is nice and fast. So before I start rendering and saving and reopening files in a work-around attempt, I am wondering first what could be causing this issue. Thanks for any ideas.

Hi,
Just to let you know that you've posted in the Audition (audio) forum and may do better posting over in the Premier Pro forums.
However, as one who works in both video and audio, I'd just comment that your choice of export format is affected big time by what you want to do with your edit. Things like Youtube, DVD, Bluray, etc. all have their own formats that you have to adhere to. Within those formats you often have choices you can make to balance bandwidth vs. quality but these only come into play once you've decided where your project has to end up.

Problem:100 % cpu usage with tcp server dll

Hello,
I am trying to write a dll with labwindows/cvi that allows me to create a TCP Server. This dll is integrated in labview.I created this Dll with example provides by Labwindows/cvi(rtserver.dll).
Description of my problem: when i execute this dll in a "While Loop" in labview,the TCp server wait a connection and 100% cpu usage occurs. However when a client is connect to the server,the CPU is normaly used because the program stop when he meets the timeout of the tcpread() function. I would like to know how i could limit CPU usage when the server is awaiting a client in the labview "While loop".
I know I could use a DELAY() to limit Cpu usage ,but I would like to know if there are any others solutions.
thank you.

i dont know your exact application, but i generally use Q to transfer data to TCP loop in my prgram it helps me in two ways.
1. it automatically restricts the iteration when ther is no data (Less CPU Usage, Less Unnecessary Trafic)
2. Q can eliminate problems arising due to non synchronization of loop

100% CPU usage with XP Cooler from PCAlert4

Any idea why I would be running 100% cpu usage when running XP Cooler from PCAlert4? I noticed PC was sluggish when running it so CTRL+ALT+DEL and under performance is 100% CPU with 245MB Ram Usage. No other TSR's running - several application but under 10% CPU usage without PCAlert and XP Cooler.
I was also wondering if anyone had any ideas on the video? I have the K7N2G with 768MB DDR PC 2100 (3x256) XP2200+ 266FSB running 1804MHz - Maxtor 30GB 7200RPM - 350W PSU (raidmax - yea yea I know, dont say a word though LOL) on board video and here is the problem - graphics are great, but they get choppy - running NFS HotPursuit 2 at 32bit 800x600 (doesnt seem to matter even when running 16bit 640x480still does it.) what setting am I missing? Thanks in advance.

Deathstalker (Richard),
I did what you suggest in memory management and also changed out the mem on the board - it did make a difference, not as much as I had hoped, but it did.
Raven,
I have used Fraps in the past, forgot about it, but went ahead and downloaded it to get a better look.
To the Both of you,
Thanks so much for your replies, sometimes it just takes someone outside looking in to see the things overlooked. But I went ahead and also ran all of the latest updates for the board (semi new system and I only installed with the CD that came with the Mobo) and everything is running better than expected. Thanks again for your thoughts - keep 'em flowin, it's amazing whom we could help. Take care.

Run program in 100% cpu usage

hi all,
does any body know how to set the java program to utilize 100% cpu usage? thanks!

class Empty implements Runnable {
    Empty() {}
    public void run() {
        while(true) {}
    public static void main(String[] arg) {
        new Thread(new Empty()).start();
        new Thread(new Empty()).start();
        new Thread(new Empty()).start();
        new Thread(new Empty()).start();
}Not sure why you would want to do this though?
