Elgato turbo.264 export fails in Compressor as a QuickTime Component

I would like to know if any user of Compressor 3 and elgato turbo.264 hardware accelerator has had succes in using the device as a QuickTime export component within Compressor.
I setup a few export settings but the Batch Monitor reports "3x encoder type unavailable".

You should report this to Elgato on their support site if you have not already. Add a trouble ticket here: http://support.elgato.com/

Elgato Turbo.264?

So I am looking into expanding my mac mini for use of audio and video editing. I have used my mini for about a year now for doing professional audio editing in Logic Express and have found it just dandy, still do. But my 80GB internal harddrive was getting even more cramped, especially after loading 10.5 Leopard a few days ago. Plus my 120GB and 250GB external HD's are packed with audio and video content I can not afford to erase so I went out and purchased another Lacie, 500GB USB2.0 and it works amazingly.
BUT... I feel my graphics are lagging. This is of course because the mini has integrated graphics, but more then this, while rendering in Final Cut and Motion. It has become a MAJOR pain, especially when my friend with a MB Pro sits next to me rendering the clip super fast. So I saw the elgato turbo.264 which states it will help with this, i have also read reviews into it.
My only question is, will this overtake day-to-day graphics processing? Thanks for any help!

turbo.264 will not accelerate, thus will not help you, your rendering needs. That job belongs to your CPU and your GPU, which are limited in a Mac Mini.
I own elgato turbo.264 and really does work and speeds up things in my dual 2.0 GHz G5 tower.
Because of my work, I encode a lot of videos to Apple Devices codecs in H.264. That is what the turbo is made for: encoding. it is not a graphic accelerator. it is an encoding accelerator. Regarding it being a USB, that has no effect. It works and does that fast. Time is money and now I am able to encode many times faster.
On the negative side, I have not been able to use it as an export component with Compressor just because I prefer it for professional jobs that require more control and metadata within the output file. If that does not apply to you, their application works perfectly and does batch exports. It also has custom settings.
Another minor negative is that Apple TV export are limited to 800x600 or 960x540 (anamorphic) thus not supporting the AppleTV supported 720p24... looks good but is less than what the AppleTV is capable of as long as your footage is 24 frames per second.
Hope this helps and that it can answer your question.
To me, I give elgato 4.9 out of 5.0, which I'll change to 5 out of 5 as soon as I can fix the Compressor thing

Can anyone confirm if Elgato Turbo.264 HD works with iMovie '11?

I've been reading a couple of accounts of people who seem to be using Turbo.264 HD (hardware) to accelerate iMovie '11 encoding.
Yet on the Elgato site there is an (admittedly old) support article that says it is only compatible with iMovie '09. Other reviews around the 'Net say the same, and have not been updated with info about iMovie '11.
So can anyone confirm that they have a working setup with iMovie '11 and Elgato Turbo.264 HD (hardware version)? I'd like to make sure before I plunk down the money.
P.S. I know it doesn't seem to work with Final Cut Pro X, I'm focusing on iMovie for now.

confirmed
does an excellent job with my set-up (MacMIni, C2D, 2.26GHz) ...
in FCPX it's a 2step process: export timeline, drag resulting .mov into Turbo.app ...

Elgato Turbo.264 problem

After installing Elgato Turbo.264 on an Intel iMac 27" a problem with HTML5 video playback in Safari appeared.
When playing videos on Vimeo.com in the HTML5 mode the error message "Ooops something broke..." shows up. I have to switch to the Flash player.
It seems there might be an incompatibility problem with QuickTime or Safari but Elgato support does not have a clue. Did anyone else notice this issue? Or does anyone know what to do about it? Please let me know. Thanks!

Encountered same problem. I submitted a support ticket to Elgato, but no reply yet. I suggest you do the same thing so they work on it ASAP. http://support.elgato.com/index.php

Anyone know if Elgato Turbo.264 works with iChat?

thx!

Hey Ralph:
Thanks for the reply. I think you're under the impression this is a camera. I probably should have explained that the Elgato Turbo.264 is a H.264 hardware encoder on a USB stick. It looks like any application using the Quicktime codec has the processing offloaded to the Turbo.264. But, I didn't see iChat specifically mentioned on their web site. I'm going to guess this is just wishful thinking on my part.

FCE VS ELGATO TURBO 264 HD

I import MTS files from Panasonic HDC SD100 and edit them to produce 1080 PAL video to see on 1080 TV Aquos.
I tried a lot of different ways with FCE but it always give me some artefacts especially on diagonal lines. I get a better result only if I use Jes Deinterlacer after FCE.
Then I bought Elgato Turbo 264HD and discovered that if I use only it without FCE it gives a better video. Even Elgato used as export format indise FCE does not give the same good result but I need again to go to Jes.
I am missing something ??? Do I make some mistake ??
Of course the power of FCE in editing is not comparable with Elgato but.....
FCE is somway old... should we expect a upgrade ???
Would final cut pro be better ?? But for home use is too expensive and may be too complicated.
I also never used iMovie...I was guessing it could not be better than FCE but shoud I give it a try ?
Thanks for your opinions

WOW !!!
Alchroma, thanks a lot !
I have now not jet solved the question but may be Thanks to you I am on the right direction.
Jes.. I was importing direct from SD card and using "Custom" setting instead of the AIC1080. I was not confident with this settings because I do not use FCE so often and in the past I had to log and transfer some standar def DV tapes. Now I changed the camera and probably I was not aware of the necessary settings to change.
Your suggestion is great value and I am now testing the Log and transfer again from SD card but using AIC standard 1920*1080 50.
THe artefacts are still there (seen on MAC screen - I have not TV here) , may be a little less but it is still lower quality if compared with Elgato direct import, or after a treatment with Jes deinterlacer....
I will try to import direct form the camera.
Thanks again

Exporting fails in compressor 4.1 and fcpx 10.1

Ok I have a bunch of projects that I brought into Compressor using "Send to Compressor" command in fcpx. Using the m2v/ac3 preset for DVD in Compressor on a batch, audio exported fine, video failed.
I tried just doing a DVD as well as the compressor preset for m2v/ac3 in FCPX share menu both options failed. When I click details it says "com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1" I tried deleting preference files and re-installing the apps still have the same error.
All of this worked prior to going to 10.1

Not sure what to suggest except that I agree it's a communication problem between the two apps. And judging by the fact that you got one of the libraries to work, I would say the problem is on the FCP end of things.
In my case, I've run into some flaky behavior – but nothing so far that I couldn't resolve by trashing preferences and/or running Compressor Repair. (CR comes up with an incompatible version warning, but then seems to do useful things.) And I brought some of that flakiness on myself by experimenting with past versions and moving the app around. FCP, itself, has been remarkably predictable…and fast. And I also have some of the FCS installed, and as in previous versions, they all seem to coexist OK.
Do you still have your events and projects so that perhaps you could hide some and limit the libraries' size?

Will Elgato Turbo converter/encoder fix the posterization issue in iMovie?

I know this is a well-known issue with iMovie. Dark spots and shadows look posterized or color-banded in iMovie. I've scoured the internet in search of a solution, but short of learning how to hack my computer and install different codecs, I can't find a reasonable solution. I know the elgato turbo USB stick is an encoder. My question is, if I used the elgato turbo to export my videos, would that get rid of the color-banding issue? Does that even make sense? (I'm not a video expert.) If anyone has tried this, let me know. If you don't know what I'm talking about and what I'm trying to get rid of, see the image below.

Ok..here are some files to help demonstrate the problem I am encountering.
access my iDisk here: https://public.me.com/testpilot58d
*RC Stuff.mov* is the footage from my camcorder in iMovie.
When I export it to HD 720p setting using turbo.264 HD, the resultant file is *RC Stuff.mp4*. This file is beautiful...perfect...crisp...looks just like my HD camcorder. It is 1280x720 progressive (Apple TV spec), avg bitrate 4,907 kbps (Apple TV spec) but it is 59.940 fps (NOT to spec) size 3.2mb
When I choose the "Apple TV" output option, I get file *RC Stuff.m4v*. It is flat, not crisp, doesn't "popp" on either my iMac or when viewed on Apple TV. It too is 1280x720 progressive, avg bitrate of 3,438 and 29.970 fps. I changed output size to 1280x720 in the Apple TV preset and it still looks flat and crappy.
So....who can get me from point A to point B? How do I need to process RC Stuff.mov to that it will LOOK like RC Stuff. mp4 but is compatible with Apple TV specs and looks as good on a HDMI LCD flat screen TV? How do I deinterlace/what field order, etc to cut the frame rate in half and still look sharp and crisp?
Thank you anyone in advance!

Editing H.264, exporting with current settings results in transcode?

Hello, I just edited a H.264 (.mov) home video and exported it using "Current Settings". The original file size was 400 MB but the export resulted in a 4.5 GB file. FCP X obviously transcodes the original material. I've also tried exporting the same file using the "H.264" setting, the result then was a 300 Mb file. This corresponds to the cutting I've done but the export process still took a lot of time and CPU to finish which proves transcode taking place again. In the past I used Quicktime 7 Pro to cut and edit H.264, it never transcoded the files and the saving was quick an painless. Am I missing some settings here or is FCP X currently unable to edit H.264 and export it without transcoding the original material? Thank you

Hi Badunit,
thanks a lot for this clarification. It perfectly makes sense in the way you describe it.
Maybe you can give me an additional recommendation ?
At the end I need my film in h.264 format and of course I'd like the film to be in terms of quality as close to the original material as possible. Original files are AVCHD HA (so h.264 codec with 17Mbit/s) in 1080i resolution.
So far I have exported my material directly from FCP X (using either the "export to h.264" from FCP itself but also trying several h.264 export formats from Compressor). All these attempts ended up with a quality that is visibly worse compared to the original AVCHD file, even when I use a bitrate for the output that is much higher than the 17 MBit of the original material. Resolution is fine but scenes with fast moves are really bad in some cases. From a "naive" point of view this seems strange to me: An output file in h.264 25MBit/s should be as good as the input material that was h.264 17MBit/s, shouldn't it ?
From what you stated above, I now wondered if I should better export to ProRes first (thus building what you called the "master" in best available quality) and than build the h.264 file from the master with Compressor in a second step ? means: go the way "Highly compressed" -> Master -> "Highly compressed" instead of directly doing "Highly compressed" -> "Highly compressed" ? Would there be any difference ? Or is the material anyway transcoded to ProRes in the background when exporting to h.264.
Happy to receive any recommendations / experiences on this.

FCP 6 sequence fails in Compressor 3

I have a 60 minute project comprising three 20 minute sequences. They are of mixed media clips (TIFFs, H.264, DV, etc). I'm exporting each to Compressor.
Sequences 1 and 3 are compressed just fine. But Sequence 2 fails again and again, even after trashing preferences, restarting, etc. There is no explanation other than 'failed', which is of no use. Any suggestions as to how I can work out why one sequence just will not work?

If you are editing in on a timeline with a codec that is equal or better in quality than your source material, you will not see any quality loss when you export a QuickTime movie in the sequence codec, and then use that file in Compressor.
A usual workflow is to edit in FCP-7, then export a master file of the finished edit, and then take that master file into Compressor to create your deliverables.
H.264 is not an edit friendly codec in FCP, the fact that you have had success is a function of luck. H.264 files should be converted to an edit friendly codec prior to ingest in FCP. Problems with H.264 files show up in all kinds of unexpected ways. If you check this forum, you'll find countless posts on this subject.
This, however, may not be your problem. Exporting the Sequence as a QuickTime is another way to test the integrity of the sequence - if you have a successful export, then you know the sequence is not problem and the media itself, when presented as source files to Compressor, is.

H.264 Output Fails in After Effects and AME

I'm having the same problem - H.264 export crashes around the 1:03 mark every time. DNxHD is fine.
Dragging comps to Adobe Media Encoder and trying to render from there doesn't work either.
My CS6 install [last week] is on a brand new Dell Precision T7600 dual eight core machine with Windows 7.
It's ridiculous to say that we shouldn't render H.264 out of After Effects. Sometimes I render 50+ TV ads at at time from composition templates for delivery to a multitude of media outlets - each with slightly different specs.
Even if AME was a workaround, dragging all these comps over would be a crippling waste of time.
This is an Adobe problem and we've all wasted too much time troubleshooting and talking about it. PLEASE FIX.
Thank you.

What version of After Effects? CS6 with all current updates.
Have you installed the recent updates? Yes.
What operating system? Windows 7 Professional
What kind(s) of source footage? The test composition contains only text created in After Effects. Other test comps have included MTS, MOV, PSD, MP3, WAV, AIF files.
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)? After Effects error: Rendering error while writing to file "Q:\...\Test.mov". An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1610153464)
What were you doing when the problem occurred? Sitting at my workstation with my fingers crossed looking hopelessly at the computer monitors.
Has this ever worked before? Yes. Worked flawlessly in all previous CS releases.
What other software are you running? Other software installed but not running at time of crash: Avid Media Composer 6.5.1, Sorenson Squeeze 8.1, Quicktime 7.5.5 [also didn't work on v7.6.9].
Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed? Whatever Avid and Sorenson install.
Tell us about your computer hardware.: Dell T7600, Dual Eight Core XEON (E5-2665, 2.4GHz, 20M, 8 GT/s,Turbo+), 32GB, DDR3 RDIMM Memory, 1600MHz, ECC (8 x 4GB DIMMs), 2GB NVIDIA® Quadro® 4000, DUAL MON, 2DP & 1DVI, [1] 1TB system drive, [1] 12TB G-SPEED eS PRO.
Do you have any third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU)? No.
Are you using OpenGL features in After Effects? Yes.
Does the problem only happen with your final output, RAM preview, or both? RAM previews work fine. Crashes occur while rendering to MOV w/H264 in both AE and AME.
Are you using Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing? Yes. But have tried disabling also.
What is the exact sequence of steps that you are taking? Open AE, create new composition, add some text layers, add some animated effects to the text layers, add comp to Render Queue or AME, select MOV with H264 codec.
Thanks in advance Ben.

MPEG2 Export failed

Hi all,
i´m running in problems generating MPEG2 (m2v) with compressor.
That´s what i´m usually doing (worked 100 times before, last time 28.03.2008):
I´m rendering out a video MJPEG A PAL from AfterEffects.
Then I´m using a Compressor Droplet to generate a approval Version for my clients (QT Sor3 halfres) and a MPEG2 file as final delivery.
But now the MPEG2 Export fails. Find the error report at the end of this thread.
I tried it with the last files when it worked, also failed.
I tried another MPEG2 Preset (the apple ones) -> failed.
Playing MPEG2 Files using QT-Player and VLC works fine.
Any help highly appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

The source frame rate is 23.976, so I guess I would go with 24p. My intention is to upload the file to a streaming video website. They have their specs laid out for me, I just happen to be new to all of this so I am having a tough time meeting them.
My question right now is, if i have selected the MXF OP1a XDCAM option with XDCAM 50 NTSC (4:2:2) video codec, will the export be in mpeg2 and what will my bit rate be? I have no way of viewing the bit rate with this configuration.
Here is a screen grab of their required specs:

Export Failed. (-50)

I am trying to use Quicktime 7.3.1 to export a .mov file to an mpeg2 file. I've done this multiple times using the same method. However, this time, and I've restarted my computer to see what that did, but this time it went all the way through the export process and then stated "export failed. (-50)" right at the end at 99%. Right now I am trying to change the name of the output file to see if that helps. Any other ideas?

QuickTime Pro no longer exports to MPEG-2 format. Older versions of DVD Studio Pro did add that export option but it has been removed in favor of the new Compressor app.

HELP!!! EyeTv and Turbo.264

This is driving me mad!
When I use the 1'click export to Apple TV button on EyeTV2 with Turbo.264 plugged in, the red progress bar will go up and then down and then up and then down... and keep doing this for ages.
Then it will do one of two things:
1. Delete the output file leaving nothing
2. Leave me with a file which has the video broken up in the wrong order, but with constant (correct) Audio - (maybe the video is mirroring the jumping red progress bar??)
Without turbo.264 plugged in, it's fine. The iPod export works fine, as does the AUTOMATIC Apple TV export which you select for each 'Scheduled' programme.
I am using the latest software for ALL aspects.
Any thoughts much appreciated.
Thanks!

I have also bee using EyeTv 2.4 and h.264 1.1 since day dot and all is working perfectly. The only issue I have is that once exported and imported into iTunes the software doesn't clean up and remove the converted file from my Movies directory (I found 50gb of HDD last weekend)....
Cheers.

OMF export failed due to internal error

I get this error message whatever I do when I try to export as OMF:
"OMF export failed due to internal error"
I tried OMF 1 and 2.
I tried to uncheck "include audio".
I tried an extremely small project (one region, one track).
Always the same error. Problem is there's absolutely no information on what kind of internal error this is.
All other export options (AFF, Open TL and Final Cut) works.
Any ideas?

I suppose that beside CCM 4.1(2) you are using AC 1.4 (1), if yes, then you need to upgrade to AC 1.4 (1) ES11 or upgrade at least to CCM 4.1(3)ES42 or CCM 4.1(3) sr3c
