Bizarre error in Premiere during video preview, then crashes at export

I upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit & decided to also upgrade to Premiere CS4. It sets up, loads, edits fine, but once I try to ram preview the video composer distorts like crazy (pictures below, before and after.) Whenever I scroll it also flickers. Once I try to export the media, it crashes with an unknown error. I have tried to reinstall premiere twice now & don't know whats going on at all.
I work with clients on a 1 to 1 basis so its import for me to ram preview, I have a client on Monday coming so I really hope to fix this issue soon. Thanks, V.

Well, yes, but I call whenever I preview an area my work a ram preview. Whatever happens when you hit the Enter button thats what I mean.
I went through that troubleshoot John posted, nothing that really helps me. I have a quad core processor so I'll try changing the affinity to a single processor, but I really doubt that's it since it was working fine on windows XP.
here is a full system spec just in case its necessary:

Camera video preview - Random crashes and green screens

Hello everyone,
I am currently working on a Windows Phone 8.1 app and I need to preview video from the phone's back camera. For quite some time I've been struggling with random crashes and green screens. When these green screens appear, all camera apps become affected and
the device needs to be restarted. Occasionally the phone freezes and only recovers after battery removal. I test the app on my Lumia 620.
After some web search, I found references to the same problem by many users/developers of different apps. I'm really frustrated as I've tried many possible solutions with no avail.
Here is part of my code:
//in App.xaml.cs:
MediaCaptureInitializationSettings settings;
public static MediaCapture captureMgr;
public static bool UnableToInitializeCamera = false;
public async Task InitializeVideoCapture()
DeviceInformation backWebcam = await GetCameraDeviceInfoAsync(Windows.Devices.Enumeration.Panel.Back);
if(captureMgr!=null) captureMgr.Dispose();
captureMgr = new MediaCapture();
settings = new MediaCaptureInitializationSettings();
settings.StreamingCaptureMode = StreamingCaptureMode.Video;
settings.PhotoCaptureSource = PhotoCaptureSource.VideoPreview;
settings.AudioDeviceId = "";
if (backWebcam != null)
settings.VideoDeviceId = backWebcam.Id;
else
var _messageDialog = new MessageDialog("Back panel camera not found");
_messageDialog.Commands.Add(new UICommand("OK"));
_messageDialog.ShowAsync();
try
await captureMgr.InitializeAsync(settings);
captureMgr.SetPreviewRotation(VideoRotation.Clockwise90Degrees);
UnableToInitializeCamera = false;
catch
UnableToInitializeCamera = true;
Debug.WriteLine("HANDLED EXCEPTION: camera could not be initialized");
var _messageDialog = new MessageDialog("Unable to initialize camera");
_messageDialog.Commands.Add(new UICommand("OK"));
_messageDialog.ShowAsync();
protected override async void OnLaunched(LaunchActivatedEventArgs e)
//.... other app initialization code
await InitializeVideoCapture();
Window.Current.Activate();
private async void OnResuming(object sender, object e)
AppIsResuming = true;
FinishedCameraInitialize = false;
await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0.5));//this makes crashes less frequent
await InitializeVideoCapture();
FinishedCameraInitialize = true;
if(WasPreviewingCamera)
WasPreviewingCamera = false; //the following line allows time for SetupPage._captureElement to be assigned before video preview starts while (!SetupPage.CaptureElementSourceAssigned) await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1));
SetupPage.CaptureElementSourceAssigned = false;
try
Debug.WriteLine("trying to restart video preview");
await captureMgr.StartPreviewAsync();
SetupPage.PreviewingCamera = true;
catch
Debug.WriteLine("HANDLED EXCEPTION: unable to start previewing");
SetupPage.PreviewingCamera = false;
GC.Collect();
AppIsResuming = false;
private async void OnSuspending(object sender, SuspendingEventArgs e)
var deferral = e.SuspendingOperation.GetDeferral();
while (AppIsResuming) await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1));//prevents crash when app is suspended right after it is resumed
await CleanupCaptureResources();
TimeOfLastSuspend = DateTime.Now;
FinishedCameraInitialize = false;
GC.Collect();
deferral.Complete();
public async Task CleanupCaptureResources()
if (SetupPage.PreviewingCamera)
await captureMgr.StopPreviewAsync();
WasPreviewingCamera = true;
SetupPage.PreviewingCamera = false;
else WasPreviewingCamera = false;
if (captureMgr != null) captureMgr.Dispose();
//in SetupPage.xaml.cs
void OnSuspending(object sender, Windows.ApplicationModel.SuspendingEventArgs e)
var deferral = e.SuspendingOperation.GetDeferral();
_captureElement.Source = null;
CaptureElementSourceAssigned = false;
GC.Collect();
deferral.Complete();
private async void OnResuming(object sender, object e)
ProgressRing2.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
ProgressRing2.IsActive = true;
while (!App.FinishedCameraInitialize) await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1));
App.FinishedCameraInitialize = false;
captureElement.Source = App.captureMgr;
CaptureElementSourceAssigned = true;
GC.Collect();
ProgressRing2.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
ProgressRing2.IsActive = false;
Any help towards a solution will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I will also advice that you start by following the
Windows Store app sample.
Is this a Windows Phone app?
The crash/green screen only manifests itself when I suspend my app and switch to the default camera app (could be any other camera app perhaps). It happens roughly 1 out of 8 times. That's why I posted the suspension and resuming handlers, which I wrote
according to the msdn instructions.
I found
this page with a sample that demonstrates the MediaCapture API for Windows Phone. Some developers have reported problems similar as mine. Has Microsoft dealt with this issue?
I've spent quite a few weeks trying to investigate this problem, without actually knowing if it is my code that needs to be debugged. That's why I'm asking if other developers are facing similar problems.
Thank you
Edit: It seems that the crash/green screen can appear when suspending/switching to any app (regardless if it uses the camera or not). Also, all works fine when the app is running on the debugger.

Constant event error being logged during video capture

I recently upgraded my version of Premiere Pro to version CS4. When I now perform a video capture from my DV Device, I get the following error logged in the event window: "file is busy, and couldn't be updated". Until the first logging, there is no RED X in the bottom right corner. Upon the first log, the RED X appears in the bottom right corner.
As far as I can tell, the event error occurs immediately after a scene download has been completed and the next scene is initiated.
The camera I am using is a MiniDV camera (not HD) and it is not listed in the device table within Premiere (Panasonic PV-GS500). I have Premiere's device set to Standard Panasonic and have also tried each of the Alternatives (1,2,3,4 and 5).
Can anyone please help me understand what this error/event means as Adobe is somewhat prehistoric when it comes to providing definitions.

Several possible causes:
1. You are not running as administrator or with administrative rights.
2. You use Win7 and your firewire driver is not the 'Legacy' one. See Adobe Forums: Can not capture under Win7
3. Background processes are getting in the way.
Possible solution:
Try Scenalyzer Live for capturing SD material. Better, more reliable and with more features than CS4.

Adobe Premiere 7 video turns blurry / pixilated upon export. How do I get a high quality export?

Hello. I am editing a video in Adobe Elements 7.0. The footage is standard definition. I am ready to export the video, but when I do this the video comes out blurry or pixilated looking. The footage looks clear when I am actually editing it, but when I export it something goes wrong. I need one export in Flash (which will later be posted on the web) and one export as a Windows Media File or MPEG so it can be viewed internally on our office computers. I have played with copious settings, formats, compressions, etc. How do I export non-blurry, high quality, clear videos?
Thank you so much for your time and consideration. I really appreciate it.

Hi Mr. Hunt! Thank you so much for responding. I really appreciate it.
What is my project preset? That's a great question. My settings are:
General:
Editing Mode: DV NTSC
Timebase: 29.97 frames per second
Video:
Frame Size: 720 horizontal x 480 vertical
Pixel Aspect Ratio: D1/DV NTSC (0.9)
Fields: lower field first
Display format: 30fps drop frame timecode
Title Safe Area: 20% horizontal and vertical
Action safe: 10% horizontal and vertical
Capture:
Capture Format: HDV Capture (Footage/tape is SD, camera is HD, does this impact anything?)
Video Rendering:
Maximum bit depth - box is NOT checked
Previews:
File Format: DV NTSC
Compressor: DV NTSC
Color Depth: millions of colors
Optimize stills - box IS checked
Footage is shot on a Canon XHA1 Hi-def camera, but on standard definition tapes. Footage is shot drop frame.
Does that answer your question? If not, where would I go to find my presets?
I'll have to check out MS Windows Media Encoder.

Why does my iMovie 11 sometimes turn black while replaying videos and then crash?

After editing parts of my video i go to replay it and the video turns black. The mouse then changes to a multi-coloured spinning CD and Imovie exits. Please help me as this is stopping me from completing my video!

Yes. And, Apple needs to work on this.
It is terrible because it is random and there is NO WAY to just select and get back the button or the choice.
Come on Apple.

Generating Previews then crashing

Hi,
when I open Aperture it immediately says generating previews when I click on the little whorly thing in the bottom left corner. Yet the previews are never generated and Aperture crashes when I attempt to quit or cancel the preview generation. It also prevents me from updating my vault because it says it needs to wait for background processes to complete. I had aperture 1.0 and now 2.0 with all the updates, it did the same thing on both versions.
Any help is appreciated!

L2 cache per processor 4mb 2x3GHz Dual Core Intel Xeon 4GB memory Nvidia Quadro FX 4500.
I'm running aperture 2.1 and my hard drives are less than 1/3 full ( 4x 465 GB)
Hope this helps.

New iChat hangs during initial setup, then crashes

I got the latest version of iChat (I can't find out the exact version because it's not included in the info). It asks me if I want to use jabber, and all that stuff, and I choose "no." Then it just hangs with the spinning beachball of death. I do a force-quit, delete the preference files, and start over. Then it gets through the initial setup process, and says "click OK to start using iChat AV." I click OK, and then it CRASHES! What's going on here?!?

Hi James,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
You might want to try reinstalling the 10.4.2 Combo Updater before you go to all that work, especially if you updated to 10.4.2 with one click in Apple's Software Update on your Mac.
See How I Update My Mac OS X for more info.
Readers who do need to reinstall might find some useful suggestions at Reinstalling Mac OS X (Rarely Necessary).

Premiere Pro CS5 - Media Encoder Crash when Exporting to MPEG-2

System:
Core i7 920 @ 3.8 Ghz
Gigabyte X58A-UD3R
12GB DDR3 1600
External Sound Card - M-Audio ProFire 610
OS Drive - 2x300GB WD Raptors - Raid 0
Project Drives - 3x300 WD Raptor - Raid 0
Video Card - Geforce GTX 285 1GB
Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 and Media Encoder CS5 continually crashes or hangs every time I try to export to MPEG-2. I can successfully render to every other codec without any issue, but need the MPEG-2 for an Adobe Encore Project.
The project is approximately 38 minutes long and contains AVI and MP4 files, all of which were ripped from DVDs as I'm producing a reel for a producer who provided his DVDs for me to rip and use as content.
Possible issues:
1.   Currently have Magic DVD Ripper and DVD Fab installed (codec conflicts?)
2.   Originally ripped the DVDs at 630x360 (my mistake - hadn't really worked with a DVD ripper before and was the largest avi pre-set) and I'm exporting to MPEG-2 standard 720x480 Widescreen) (I know I should've just ripped them as the original lossless MPEG-2 files - I'm a tool)
2.   Blank space in the timline (there are a number of these)
I would like to get some input before I try to export to MPEG-2 again as I blew a capacitor on my old mother board (Gigabyte x58-ud3r) after I had gotten my computer to start rendering a MPEG-2 after about 50 tries to export/launch media encoder set on MPEG-2. I just installed my new motherboard to replace it. Clearly MPEG-2 taxes the system more so than any other codec (from what I can tell). However, I thought the issue with the blank space/no media in the timeline was fixed with CS5. I saw in a previous post that someone thought that ffdshow was conflicting with AME. I don't have ffdshow, but I believe that's a ripper program like Magic and DVDFab.

I experienced this at one point. Searching the WEB I saw suggestions that there was a problem with a recent version of Quicktime. (I have no idea why the quicktime player would have an impact.) However, reverting to an earlier version of Quicktime fixed the problem. Search this board using quicktime as a search phase. The quicktime web site allows you to download the earlier versions. I'm not at my editing machine, but I believe that I am at version 7.5.2.

Premiere Pro CC Blue Screen Crash on Export or Playback

I just bought a new hard drive, reformatted, and thought maybe this time I'll evaluate Creative Cloud because I've been wanting to purchase but have been holding back.
I signed up for the trial and installed Premiere Pro CC.
Well the application gives me a blue screen of death and hard reboot every time after either a few minutes of project playback/scrubbing or a few seconds after rendering. Same blue screen if I just open Media Encoder and try to export a Premiere sequence from there. No crashing with Photoshop CC, even when manipulating 3D Extrusion layers.
I contacted chat support and they said this avenue is my only option for support because I haven't bought yet. Well I have a hard time buying something I know doesn't work from the beginning...
My setup:
Freshly installed Windows 7x64 SP1 w/updates and latest drivers.
Nvidia GTX 770 2GB w/ latest nvidia driver 334.89
Intel Core-i7 970, 12GB DDR3, all stock timing, no O/C.
Passes all stress test and diagnostic test, no hardware faults found.
I suspect this is CUDA / MCP related issue. Maybe the GTX 770 and/or drivers 334.89 are not compatible.

Premiere Pro CS3 crashes when exporting to Encore CS3

"Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project."
That is the error message. I am editing an AVCHD project in which I already converted as an .mpg prior to importing into Premiere (since CS3 does not import AVCHD natively). This is the first time I am doing this workflow, as a client has given me AVCHD files to work with. The project RT is 1 hr 2 min. I need to create a DVD and Blu-ray of this project.
System Specs
~Processor: AMD Phenom 9600 Quad-Core Processor 2.30GHz
~RAM: 4.00 GB
~OS: Windows Vista 32-bit
~Have the most recent updates for all CS3 programs
I tried:
Exporting to Encore
~Tried various settings for DVD. NTSC Progressive Widescreen High Quality, Medium, etc.
~Tried the preset for exporting Blu-ray to Encore.
~Created a new sequence with about 7 min of the project to see if it was a corrupt file; same results.
Using Adobe Media Encoder
~Used various presets and custom settings with the same result [error message; Premiere "stops working" and then crashes]
~Created a new sequence with about 7 min of the project to see if it was a corrupt file; same results.
I observed the Windows Task Manager when Premiere is opened and then when it crashes. The RAM is at 1.12GB before the project is opened, goes up to 2.17GB when it is opened, and remains about the same when it crashes. The CPU Usage is about 4-10% before the project is opened, spikes dramatically (+/- 10-80%) when Premiere is opened as well when it crashes.
I appreciate any and all help. Thank you to everybody in advance who will contribute a solution to my problem!

Video preview during capture CS3

Video preview during capture is not working even though settings are at preview video and audio during capture.
The work around seems to be to go ahead record anyway (red button) then it works after I paste the captured audio onto the timeline.
When pasting it to the timeline the video appears. The video appears during subsequent captures. It seems like a bug in CS3. This was not a problem with PP 1.5
Thanks

A few more of
these details will help us help you.
