"error: out of disk space message" while exporting Quick time file

Got an "error: out of disk space message" while exporting a 94min hdv project to the quicktime conversion (format:QT mvie, use mose recent settings / Options-dv/dvcpro -ntsc, size-dimensions compressor native) I also tried using compressor to creat a QT movie and got same error message. It gives me an estimate of 4-6 hrs, runs and at the end of 4hrs it gives me the error message. It is a large project, transitions filters 4+vid tracks 9 audio tracks, but Im using a dual4core, 4 gigs of ram.
Is this a ram or hard drive problem. I asume its the disk but cant imagine Im running out of space.
I've tried sending it to the "hard drive bay 1" with 30 free gigs and to the "hard drive bay2" which has 22 gigs open. can't imagine we are making a file bigger than that. I'm thinking about sending it to an external drive with 60 gigs free.
Any help would be great since We have our sound mixer waiting for this as a video reference. Also trying to export OMF files but they are greater than 2 gigs so we're gonna try and split the track up with 4 tracks, 3 tracks & 2 tracks. This has been over a years worth of work and our sound mixing is the last thing to do. Please help us over the hump and I'll thank you on our website, thelaughingplanet and maybe even send you a copy of the movie. Marc

""hard drive bay 1" with 30 free gigs and to the "hard drive bay2" which has 22 gigs"
Sounds like you're getting perilously low on drive space, you should always leave about 15% free on a drive for the OS to do it's thing. Either backup and clear some room, or get another drive.

    Is this a ram or hard drive problem. I asume its the disk but cant imagine Im running out of space. I am sending it to an external hard drive with over 80gigs of free space. This makes no sense, please help.

    The 20 gig qt file was what the mixer asked for. I guess he wants it instead of a dvd because it can be inserted to his pro tools. He asked for the 16:9 size dv/dvcpro ntsc format. He may be wrong and a half frame size would work. he did say he wanted the precision info provided by the QT file. Will the half frame give him the same frame and precision movie info of the 20 gig file with only a lower quality display image?
    The problem with dropping everything into a dv seq is that we have many sections that have multiple layers of video with movement and size changes. What is the problem with making a 16:9 QT file?

  • "Error:Out of Disk Space" message. Why?

    I've been using an Apple G4 with FCP2 to capture footage through a Sony DSR-11 deck. I've set up a LaCie 500GB 7200, with most of its 500GB available, as capture disk. As late as last summer I used this system to capture 70+ hours of footage which was then edited on another system.
    This time I've met only problems. I've tried capturing 5 different DV tapes. They seem to be capturing but at the end of the hour I get the message "Error: Out of Disk Space".
    Does anyone know why this might be happening? I've checked the set up and everything seems in order. (These tapes are 4:3, the ones captured last year were 16:9 DV, so the only adjustment I had to make was un-checking "anamorphic".) I even tried capturing to the MAC hard drive to see if the problem was the LaCie drive, but I get the same same message. (The LaCie I've been using had been full with last year's capture scratch and the disk had been erased through LaCie's Silverlining program, so for a while I began to think that this may be the problem; that maybe I'd have to reformat the disk, etc. but this test seems to rule that out.)
    Thanks.

    Since I last wrote I’ve changed hard drives, run tests on them, as well as trash my preferences, which I did earlier. Still, if I try to capture a tape (to disks with up to 460 GB available) I get the message “Error: Out of Disk Space”. The only thing I can think of doing now is deleting and then reinstalling the Final Cut software.
    Here I’m kind of dumb and don’t want to make any mistakes. This Apple has been a stand-alone computer used only for Final Cut and the software was installed when I got it. The rest of my life has been conducted on a PC. So is there anything I should do before deleting Final Cut? Should I be doing anything to protect exiting project files, captured clips, thumbnail cache etc.? Will Final Cut just recognize these when I re-install? What do I do? Just open the Mac hard drive, identify the Final Cut application and drag it to Trash? Do I need to empty the trash first or should I leave it there for safety?
    I look at the instructions that came with my ancient Final Cut 2 disks. Here’s what they say in full:
    To install QuickTime, follow these steps
    1) Insert the Final Cut Pro CD in your CD drive. (I see I have two disks: one “Final Cut Pro 2”, the other “Final Cut Pro 2:Tutorial Media” Do I need to install the second?)
    2) Double-click the CD’s icon, then double-click the QuickTime Installer folder.
    3) Double-click the QuickTime Installer icon and follow the onscreen instructions.
    4) When the Choose Installation Type window appears, select Custom, then click Continue.
    5) In the next window, click Select All, then continue
    This replaces any previous versions of QuickTime and ensures a complete installation of all components required by Final Cut Pro.
    6) When a message appears saying installation was successful, click Restart.
    Is this all straightforward or might there be any potential pitfalls in the above instructions for someone unfamiliar with installing software on a Mac (In my case old software and an old Mac – a G4)? I guess I should also ask if you folks out there agree that re-installing Final Cut may be the answer to my problem, that this error message is the result of a glitch that has arisen in the installed version of Final Cut.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Tried exporting in smaller chunks and that seems to work but obviously not the result  i'm after.

    OK, let's play 20 questions!

    How full is that drive?

  • Out of disk space message

    Can anyone advise me please? My disk space seems to be fluctuating from 2.2gb free space to Zero kb. In between I notice that the available space goes up and down. Is someone downloading from me?
    All I keep getting is 'out of disk space' error messages.
    When I reboot the disk space shows 2.2gb free but then in an hour or so I start getting the messages.

    What onClick reported—a variation of ~0.6GB in a free disk space—is reasonable. His only problem was that he wasn't leaving enough free space on his boot drive.
    As to stulid, 2.2GB variation may be normal—depending on what the OS is doing, and how much swapping is taking place. He had a serious problem with free disk space—one is courting trouble if one lets it come close to zero. But that was long ago…

  • "out of disk space" when trying to export

    I'm working on a Macbook Pro and Final Cut Pro HD version 4.5. Here's the deal:
    I'm trying to move a project into iDVD, so I'm exporting it as a Quicktime Movie. After about a minute of exporting, the "Error: out of disk space" window pops up. I have almost 3 gigs on my external drive which, I think, should be enough for the file.
    On another post, someone with the same problem said it was a faulty timecode that made the project seem reeeaaallly long and the drive didn't have enough room for that long duration. I believe this might be the cause of my "error" because at the very beginning of my project the time code reads 01:00:00;00. If this IS the problem, how do I fix it? If not, what do I do?
    I am a very amateur film editor and would very much appreciate any help!
    Thanks.

    Two things:
    1. That is not nearly enough of available space. At least 20 GBs is needed.
    2. FCP 4.5 HD is a PPC app; you are running it on a Intel Mac. Not compatible and you will have issues. I'm surprised you were able to install it.

  • IBook g4 ran out of disk space, internet doesn't work

    Hi.
    I have an iBook G4, running OSX 10.3. Yesterday, we were looking at some pictures on the machine and we put too much stuff on hard drive; iBook said it ran out of space (presumably for virtual memory) and then froze.
    We rebooted, did a big archive/clean-up (ten gigs free, now). It ran sluggishly, I zapped the pram and nvram, it runs well. Now, we can't get the internet to work through our Airport. But here's the weird thing:
    -We have 4 bars. Airtunes works perfectly.
    -Our other iBook (G3, 10.4) connects to the internet just fine.
    -If we connect to our neighbor's airport, we get internet but it's really slow, slower than usual.
    Any thoughts?

    You're getting an out of disk space error ... which means you've run out of disk space, no?

  • "out of disk space" error with Quicktime export

    Hi - just trying to export a fairly small (3 minute) video sequence to record via iDVD. When I try to export the sequence as a Quicktime movie, I get an "out of disk space" error. I don't understand why - the video is not that big, and I have over 30 GB of free disk space. I suspect I'd be able to do it if I deselect the "self-contained" option - but I don't understand why 30 GB of disk space isn't enough.
    Other details: FC Express 3.0

    Well, I thought everything had been rendered, but I'd missed a couple of transitions. When I tried to render those, I got another "out of memory" error. Turns out I'd misinterpreted what the "minimum scratch disk size" setting meant - it was set to 32000 MB - I thought that meant that 32 GB would be available for storage, but I guess it means that the 32 GB will NOT be available for storage.
    Anyway, I changed that minimum to 10000 MB, and now everything works....
    Thanks!

  • "out of disk space" error on export, or stalls at 100%- but I have plenty!

    Can anyone help me with this?
    I'm using FCE HD 3.0 on an iMac 2.66 Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB, running Snow Leopard.
    I have over 700Gb available on the internal hard disc.
    I'm trying to export a short (under 4 min) movie as a self contained Quicktime file. The footage was captured as DV-PAL anamorphic. On export the status bar says it will take "about a minute" counts down as expected but then stops at 100% and fails to finish. I left it at that point over night last night and when I came back to it this morning I had an "out of disk space" error.
    I've tried trashing preferences.
    If I export using Quicktime conversion things work fine.
    Thanks
    Mary

    FCE3 isn't supported on recent versions of the OS or QuickTime. Strange things can happen because of this.

  • Error message-the volume unkown is about to run out of disk space.

    When I try to log and transfer any of my video clips from my camera it doesn't work, because in the middle of the transfer it comes up with a message saying volume unknown is about to run out of disk space, please clear some space and hit continue...This shouldn't be, because I have more than enough room on my mac. So I'm wondering what, if anything do I need to delete. And what else I have to do so I can get back to successfully transfering my clips. Thanks alot!

    Are you capturing to the internal boot/system drive of your computer?
    Also, how much remaining free space do you have on the drive you have set as the media or scratch disc?
