Compressor won't render past 30 seconds of video?

I am trying to use compressor to render a sequence from FCP to a WMV and it won't render past 30 seconds? Anyone seen this before?
File Extension: wmv
Estimated file size: unknown
Output file type: Windows Media
Video Encoder
Format: Video
Pixel aspect ratio: Square
Crop: None
Padding: None
Padding: None
Frame Controls: Off

You need to buy the Flip4Mac FCP component to convert to WMV. You have the trail version of flip4Mac and it only converts 30 seconds.

Timeline won't render in Premiere Elements 12 (and music video editing advice)

I have a section of video I'm editing that won't render. I've read some similar threads but still have a question about how I can edit the clips to 'force' a render.
I'm running PE 12 on a Core i3 laptop running Windows 8, so not a huge amount of processing power. I don't have an orange line above the timeline over these clips and I understand PE has decided that it's already giving me the best possible preview quality and doesn't need to render this section. However, it's four quick edits in time to some music and when I preview it back my computer clearly can't process the video and audio fast enough because I get very jerky video so I can't verify that the cuts are perfectly aligned to the drum beats.
I've been exporting the whole four minutes just to review about five seconds of video in the middle to make sure it's synched, and this is getting really frustrating as I'm having to make frame by frame adjustments to improve the sync.
Is there anything I can do to each clip, like adjust an image setting, to force PE to give me an orange line and want to render this section?
Just as an aside to anyone who edits music video type clips - if you're making, say, four quick cuts to four drum beats in a bar, do you find the audio/visual sync works best if the cut is on the frame the drum beat attack starts on, or does it seem more natural if it's one or two frames after the initial attack so it's 'mid drum beat'? I'm tending to find just after the initial attack looks/sounds better for me - but maybe that's something to do with the delay in my PC processing the frame!
Thanks for any advice,
Chris.

Please excuse the questions, but I did not want to take anything for granted...are you sure that you are looking above the Timeline content for the render indicator line? Assuming that you are OK with that.....
Are the gray tabs of the Work Area Bar placed so that they span the entire content of the Timeline, including this five second content which you say cannot be rendered. Remember rendering does not fix problems, rather it is a preview that helps you to realize that a problem exists sooner than later. Consequently, please confirm if an orange line persists over that five second content even if you press the Render key above the Timeline.
Have you expanded the Timeline content to the maximum with the Zoom Out Zoom In Slider above the Timeline get the best look at the content on the Timeline in contrast to get the best possible preview in the Edit area monitor?
Have you gone to Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and set the Audio Display Format to Milliseconds if you are involved in audio edits?
Have you been nudging audio in sync with video using shortcuts, such as...
As you hold down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard, tap the left or right arrow key once (one tap = 1 frame nudge)
As you hold down the Shift+Alt keys of the computer main keyboard, tap the left or right arrow key once (one tap = 5 frames nudge)
I would suggest that exploration and experimentation are the best tools with which to work to achieve a specific effect for your specific
situation.
Please review and then let us know if any of the above targets your questions about your workflow.
Thank you.

IMac makes a loud beep on start up, won't load past the blue screen and the black ticking dial appears every few seconds in centre of screen.

Urgent help!
Out of the blue my mac lost the mouse cursor even though it had connection so I rebooted only for the mac to make a loud beep on start up then get stuck at the blue loading screen. It won't load past the blue screen. I've tried to reboot holding down the shift key but no change. I've also shut down, unplugged the main for 15 seconds, re plug and wait 5 seconds before starting up again but no change. Does anyone have any suggestions?
PS: I'm not too sure which systems I am running without being able to check in about this mac. I bought my imac in January or February 2011 if that helps.

The power on self-test resides in the ROM of the computer. This test runs whenever the computer is turned on after being fully shut down (the power-on self-test does not run if the computer is only restarted).
If a fault is detected during the test, you will not hear a normal startup chime. Instead, the system will beep as explained below. If you experience one of these beeps, you may call your Apple Authorized Service Provider for additional troubleshooting assistance.
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable

My movie won't play past two minutes and thirty-seven seconds. What do I do?

Hello Bdev15,
I would be concerned too if the songs I purchased from iTunes were not downloading to my iPhone. You have taken some great troubleshooting steps already, and thank you for providing the details of the steps you too. I have a few additional suggestions to get it downloaded to your iPhone.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted:
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
Enter your account name and password if prompted.
Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1725
If the songs still do not download, next I recommend downloading the songs when connected to another network. For example, if you are using the cellular network, you could switch to Wi-Fi, or you could try an alternate Wi-Fi network. Follow the steps in the section titled "iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch > Music" in the article below to download the songs:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Video Won't Render

Hi all,
My video suddenly stopped rendering. I have no idea why.
I have tried:
restarting the computer
copying the project as a new project and deleting the previous one
Moving the video to a new sequence
Creating an entirely new project and creating a small sequence (also won't render so it's not just the project)
Any suggestions other than reinstalling the software, which I am not sure will help but is the only thing I can think of...
THANKS FOR ANY HELP!
Shari

My video suddenly stopped rendering. I have no idea why.
What, exactly, needs to be rendered?
By that I mean, is there compositing and/or transitions that need it? Or is it only filters?
If it's only filters, you might have an issue with your User Preferences. That is...
1. Press Option-Q (User Preferences)
2. Click on the Render Control tab (2nd from the right)
3. Make sure - in the 'Render & Playback' box - that the checkbox for 'Filters' is checked. Then click OK
(In case it isn't checked, you'll need to correct this in all of your sequences as well - press Command-0 [Zero] with the sequence active and alter it's Render Control settings)
Also, unrelated specifically to filters, please confirm that your settings under the 3 Render settings found in the Sequence menu in your menubar - Render, Render All, Render Only - have the (correct) settings applied. (ie. that at least something is check-marked. Otherwise, when those actions are activated, nothing will happen)
(all this in addition to the solid advice given by TV Show Guy :))

IPod Video Won't Boot Past Apple Logo

I've had my 5th Generation iPod Video (80 GB) for about 1 1/2 years. I was using it the other day and it froze in the middle of a song, so I used the reset function to reboot it. Now it won't boot past the Apple logo; it just stays there (until the battery runs out).
I definitely can't use the iTunes "restore" function, since I've been unable to get my computer to acknowledge when it is plugged in.
I'm guessing this means my hard drive is done for? If so, I'm comfortable replacing it myself, but I could use some advice regarding a good (and economically priced) replacement drive. After a quick look inside my iPod, it appears the hard drive model is a Toshiba MK8010GAH.

You might try forcing the iPod into disk mode first, then connecting it to your computer and see if that makes it show up in iTunes...

Video stream won't seek past ~2400 sec using flex 3's VideoDisplay. help!

I have a video on the developer edition of FMS 3.5 that is quite large. The total time is ~19,000 seconds. Seeking to points prior to 2433.482 seconds work fine using VideoDisplay.playheadTime. However if I try to set the playheadTime to any number over 2433.482 seconds, the video state is as follows:
Video state: seeking
Video state: paused
Video state: buffering
Video state: playing
and the video never reaches the point. it just stops at 2433.482
I have messed with this for days. I'm pretty sure it's not the flex application. I looked through the conf file on the server but I couldn't find any variable that would be restricting it. please help!!

bump!

Clip won't render

I have a timeline of a few clips and one of the clips in the middle won't render (the green line never appears above it).
There is no red line above, just gray. no matter how many times I hit enter and go through the entire workarea, it stays gray.
The entire thing plays fine in preview but the green line never appears. Then when I save it as a quicktime, the audio is messed up in that part of teh clip.
any suggestions? thanks.

Glad that other formats work for you. I do not know the causes of the problems with QT, but many experience them. One noted poster, Jeff Bellune from the PrPro and the Encore forum, summed it up this way, "Apple just does not understand anything PC." [OK, maybe a slight paraphrase there, but you get the idea.]
I wish that I had a real "fix," but similar can happen when working with MPEG-2 Assets, and then going to a DVD-Video (another MPEG-2 Transcode). I have fought that one, but clients insist on working with MPEG-2 muxed files from previous DVD's, and refuse to go back and get footage, prior to the creation of that DVD. Sometimes, one gets lucky, but often OOS sinks in, and there is little that one can do about it. On one Project, I had sync perfect on the Timeline, but when we'd go to to the delivery DVD, it would be out. I moved Clips around, for the OOS scenes, by my guess on OOS. Without being able to see it on the Timeline, it was seat of the pants. I'd move a second, and observe no correction. Two seconds and still no change. Three seconds, and I'd get two seconds in the other direction! Finally, I had to just say, until you get the footage before Transcoding to MPEG-2 and the DVD, that is the best that you'll get.
Sorry for the bad news, and I wish that I had a "cure" for the QT Export. It plagues folk on PrPro, and also PrE. When things go well, all is OK. When sync goes out, there seems no way to get it right.
Good luck,
Hunt

On my iPod touch (5th generation) it won't let me watch any video's off any Internet sources eg Facebook twitter and YouTube. When I click on the video it just comes up saying 'this operation could not be continued'?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Mac Mini won't boot past Apple logo and spinning wheel

Hello,
I have a Mac mini (late 2009) running 10.8.2. Today, I tried to log into the computer. It accepted my username and password, but then the screen turned gray instead of logging in. I left it like that for about twenty minutes, then gave up on waiting and Ctrl-Command-Power rebooted it. It then wouldn't reboot: it gets to the Apple logo and spinning loading wheel, but won't go past there.
So I went into single-user mode and was able to access the HD fine. I ran a filesystems check using the recommended syntax (/sbin/fsck -fy, I think). It said that the volume looked okay, and that it had been modified. I took this as a good sign (that it had been repaired) and typed "reboot" to restart the machine. I held Command-Shift-V to perform a Verbose Safe Boot.
The computer makes no further progress after the following four lines:
vboxdrv: fAsync=0 offMin0x809 offMax=0x2bc3
VBoxDrv: version 3.2.12 r68302; IOCtl version 0x140001; IDC version 0x10000; dev major=34
VBoxFltDrv: version 3.2.12 r68302
VBoxAdpDrv: version 3.2.12 r68302
I'm assuming all the instances of "vbox" are in reference to Oracle's VirtualBox VM. I do have VirtualBox installed, but haven't used it in a while (months), so I don't see why it's suddenly causing a problem.
To clarify, the computer doesn't "hang" after these lines: I can still type text into the terminal. The entire log is being saved to /dev/console, so I could probably grab it from Single-User Mode if necessary.
Everything else seems to be working properly: even the wl0 drivers are loaded.
Does anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this, or at least disable VirtualBox so the computer can start?
Thanks!

Cult of Mac post:
When the Apple Logo appears your Mac has found a valid system disk, and Mac OS X begins loading.
Apple Logo with Spinning Gear
Once the spinning gear appears the BSD kernel (Darwin) has assumed command and begins loading device drivers. Shortly thereafter it transfers command to the almighty (and controversial) launchd process. Such are the workings of UNIX.
What this means for us mortals is that when a Mac stalls at the Apple logo or the logo with a spinning gear, it probably has a corrupt Mac OS X installation. It may also be having trouble accessing an internal or external hardware component, but this is less-likely.
Rebooting your Mac in Safe Mode can sometimes get things working well-enough that a second, normal reboot then works normally Hold down the Shift key at startup to boot in Safe Mode. DiskWarrior is also worth a shot (this is by far my most used disk utility). If that doesn’t work, an Archive & Install may be needed.

PowerBook G4 won't boot past blue screen

I've read a couple of posts with similar problems. The jist is, I did a security update/restart earlier and now my laptop won't boot past the blue screen after the white screen with the gray apple. I think I'm on Mac OS 10.4.11 but I had it on auto-update so that could be incorrect.
I've booted from the install disk and run a diagnostic from the First Aid bit in the Disk Utility. It says that there are no errors found and the S.M.A.R.T. status says "verified" as well. It won't let me boot into Safe Mode (although, I could be doing that wrong as I'm not exactly clear on how to do it - pressing S doesn't seem to do anything, but if I press Command + S it takes me to a text listy thing and I've run the "fsck -f" system check (which seems like the same as the disk utility check?) from there and also gotten the "volume is ok" message. There was also a suggestion to run some kind of diagnostic after booting with the D key from the install disk, but I was never able to get the disk to boot from the D key, only the C key.
I'm sure that this is kind of the "same song, different verse," kind of post, but I've not read about volumes registering as okay. I'm a little wary of a archive-and-reinstall as I've not ever done that before (so, if that's the suggestion you have, I would really appreciate loads of specifics on how that works so I don't mess up!)
I've read in several instances suspicion of a hard drive problem but I've not had any slow downs or any crashing. I did travel to the UK for about 10 days, but I didn't even change the time zone on my laptop while there, so I don't think that's it (but I suppose it could be.)
Lastly, I did recently replace my keyboard. A few keys had become non-responsive so I replaced it and have had the new keyboard for a bit over a month.
Suggestions? Ideas? Sorry if it's a repeat post -- just felt like the circumstance was a teensy bit different. And also, thanks very much for any info you can give.

Linsey:
If you can boot your computer into Firewire Target Disk Mode and you have access to a second Mac that supports firewire, you may be able to back up items that have not been backed up previously.
If you are able to back everything up successfully, and you have tested your backup to be sure it is sound, then we can proceed with re-installation of the OS. The best option is to completely reformat and erase the HDD and then install the OS from disk. (I will post complete step by step directions). This will enable you to start with a clean slate/HDD. Your other option would be to use the Archive and Install option. Think it over and let me know how you want to proceed.

FCP 4 won't render

Hi,
I'm using fcp 4 and I when I try to render some scrolling text, it takes a long time and then comes up with general error 34. After that, it won't render anything. I have made sure that all the option colors are checked, and I have tried dumping the preferences.
Thanks

Hi David,
There is lots of space. I had a student that added some titling to a project at the end of a video, and it wouldn't render. Then when I put the same titling on top of a clip, it rendered without a problem. I'm not sure why this was happening.

Applet won't proceed past "activate" command

I am unable to work around this any longer.
I have a script saved as an application bundle:
(*BEGIN SCRIPT FOR APPLET 1*)
set BA_ to ((path to me as Unicode text) & "Contents:Resources:BeepApplet.app")
beep 3
display dialog "Okay, this dialog shows. But will the one AFTER the activate command show?"
tell application BA_ to activate --should cause another 5 beeps, and probably will
--But will the following dialog show?
display dialog "Foiled Again?"
--THE ANSWER IS NO!
(*END SCRIPT FOR APPLET 1*)
As you can see, the applet contains a second applet (in the bundle, but it could be anywhere if its path is properly specified).
When the second applet is called (tell application BA_ to activate), the second applet does its thing properly (provides another 5 beeps), but for me the first applet won't proceed past the "activate" command.
I've tried calling application BA_ in a variety of ways, but always seem to get the same result. Is this normal behavior? Is there a way around it?
(Here's the very simple underlying script for application BA_:
beep 5)

Please see my response to red_menace. I've indicated that both your and his response were "helpful"
It appears that my response to red_menace has disappeared. Basically, it provided a version of the applet script that seems to work;
(*BEGIN REVISED SCRIPT FOR APPLET 1*)
set BA_ to ((path to me as Unicode text) & "Contents:Resources:BeepApplet.app")
beep 3
display dialog "Okay, this dialog shows. But will the one AFTER the launch-run command show?"
tell application BA_ to launch
tell application BA_ to run
--But will the following dialog show?
display dialog "Foiled Again?"
--THE ANSWER IS (it seems to)!
(*END REVISED SCRIPT FOR APPLET 1*)
I also experimented with the load script/run script approach; while promising, it wasn't suited to my purposes.

Themes won't render in iMovie06

When I use some Themes in iMovie in order to make my Holiday-Videos a little bit more "interesting", I can choose all the themes and templates und drag them in the timeline. However they won't render, so that the red line won't change. Also saving my project won't work, because it is still rendering (but nothing happens). I have this problem since QT 7.5 but cannot downgrade...
I waited a VERY long time for rendering-processes on my iMac 2.8 4GB but nothing happend at all.
what can I do?

puh.....
Thank you for the reply.
However, reinstalling the system without using a backup means very very much work... Is there no there Chance to use iMovie06 correctly?
I can't really believe that
