Export progress initialising

I have just upgraded to QT Pro for the purpose of exporting .avi video to my iPod. Whenever I start the export, it opens a a progress box and then appears to do nothing else. The progress bar remains blank and the text underneath says 'initialising'. I've left it running for several hours, and tried various file sizes, but nothing seems to work. Can someone please give me a clue what to do next, or advise on what the problem might be....

Export progress bar shows, but no SWF appears

Hello all,
i've been through tech support and about 100 different sites with this issue but nothing seems to help. I'm using windows Vista 64 bit (work machine, not personal) with Adobe CS5 production premium. I have this training I created in flash and it used to export just fine. I was able to test and everything, but lately, it stopped doing that. I hit CTRL+enter, and it won't give me a SWF file. I hit debug it says it can't find the swf. I looked in the folder where everything is for the training, and sure enough, there is no SWF file there. I tried hitting CTRL + enter and watching the folder. The SWF file appears while the export progress bar is going, but the second the bar is done, the file vanishes. For a while, if I went into File and hit Export Movie, it worked, but even that's stopped working. Can anyone help me figure this out?
FYI - I put the file on my Mac and it works fine there. I can export, make changes, debug, anything I like. It's just on my windows work machine.

Hi,
Please zip up all of your files, change .zip extension to .zzz and email it to my attention at [email protected] Please also add the link to this thread. I'll take a look at it.
Thanks,

Can't Render Video Hangs on the Initializing Video Export Progress bar

When rendering a video I never get past the Initializing Video Export Progress bar.
Running windows 8 64bit, Photoshop CC.
I have Windows CS4, Lightroom 4, LIghtroom 5 and Premier Elements installed. I have no problem exporting video from lightroom or Premier Elements

I am trying to process a move clip of various types. I don’t even get to the dialogue that presents the parameter entry. I’ve tried .mp4,mts,3gp,f4v & m2t. I don't even have any changes applied to the clip.

Export Progress window seems to be stuck on Initializing...

I am trying to encode to h264 video with Type 2 DV .avi rendered in VT4.5 with Quicktime 7 pro.
I chose the movie to ipod setting in the export menu and hit ok 21 hours ago...
The Export progress bar is still at the Initializing... stage with no apparent progress.
The project is 19.5 GB when rendered to Type 2 DV.avi.
Is this normal? Does anyone know how long QuickTime 7 pro usually takes to encode? I am hesitant to cancel the process since I have so much time invested.
Thank you for your help.

Why not try a ten minute "cut" from your file and time that process. You'll get a good idea of how long your file will take to convert.
The QuickTime export dialogs seem to not properly update when a huge file is processing.
The "Movie to iPod" is the most complex export you'll probably make and changes found in the latest release now use a 640X480 display size which will drastically increase the time of encoding.
Since I don't own an iPod I've never used those export settings. And each computer will take longer or shorter time based on its hardware and processor.

Export Progress stuck on "initializing"!!!!!!

I just got my video iPod and downloaded Quicktime Pro so I could "easily" export my videos into iPod format.
Well I have waited all day and the export progress box still says "Initializing..."
Anyone know a fix for this or what I'm doing wrong?
Also, if anyone has a number or e-mail address for customer support let me know because I am very upset that I dropped $30 for a program that's not working.

Scan mode when exporting - progressive or interlaced?

This may be a dumb question but I did a search and couldn't find anything definitive.
I have large uncompressed quicktime files that I need to export with the DVCPRO codec down to a file I can then use.
What's better to use as far as the scan mode? Progressive or Interlaced? And what's the difference between the two?
Any insight into this matter would be really helpful.

In layman's terms...
Film is Progressive.
TV is Interlaced.
Computer monitors do not show interlaced material in its true form... that is with a 'gun' zooming down the screen showing one field and back up the screen showing the other 60 times a second, as in a TV.
If you really want to see what progressive material will look like you need a progressive monitor. If you really want to see what interlaced will look like you need an interlacing monitor (broad generalization, but kind of true... I mean, you can get a good idea what progressive will 'look' like on an interlacing monitor, but you won't get a good idea what interlaced will look like on a PROGRESSIVE monitor).
SO...
What YOU really need to decide is 1) what type of LOOK you are going for... smooth 'reality' look of interlaced, or film-ish look of progressive, and 2) where you will be presenting this work... if it is for the web, realize that 90% of the monitors will be progressive in nature.
Don't be AFRAID of interlaced material... just use it for what it was intended for use with... er... in which it was intended to be used... er... well, you should get my point by now.
Good luck,

Youtube Exporting: Progressive frame video, Adaptive Details etc

I just read Ken Stone's article (or at least as much as I could understand) about exporting for youtube these days (http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/you_tube_reduxgary.html). My main question is: Do I need to have Compressor to take advantage of the settings he outlines? FCE gives me many of the options he includes but I don't see how to ensure that it's progressive or that the Adaptive Details option is unchecked. I know so little about what these things actually do, but I'm in great need of exporting good-looking youtube vids and my stuff isn't looking so hot. Help?
Thanks!

FCP keeps exporting progressive ProRes files as Interlaced

I have captured a clip from tape using 1920x1080 25i setting on Kona3 card with the ProRes HQ codec. The tape is progressive but there was no option to capture 1080 25psf so I was informed that 1080 25i would be fine.
FCP states the clip has Upper field dominance so I set it to 'None' and dropped it into a 1920x1080 ProRes HQ 25fps sequence.
The Sequence timeline settings were 'None' and the Prores Advanced codec options the Interlaced option was also unchecked. All fine, exported the clip based on Current Settings to render a new (progressive) Quicktime.
I then reimported the rendered clip it back into FCP and it stated that the rendered clip is still Upper Field dominant. Short of reencoding through Compressor (v slow and creates a second generation encoded file) I cannot seem to get FCP to export this material as progressive.
Is there a way I can just change the Field Dominance flag/tag of the clip within FCP or another application to "None" withut any rerenders/encodes?
Any help gladly appreciated as this is becoming a real mystery/headache!

If I manually change it for every source file to progressive (which should be done automaticallt by Compressor), I then get a progressive output.
But that defeats Compressor's purpose and is a source for error.
Jérôme.
I'm not sure what this means.
And I wonder whether it's a metadata thing and, and while disconcerting, whether it will have any practical effect on your project.
As a test try a single clip. Turn on frame controls with output fields set to progressive. See if it is now identified correctly. If it is bring that into FCP and compare against that against the one that is identified as interlaced.
If Frame Controls doesn't work, then I think I would use MPEG Streamclip. It's fast and has a very good batch feature.
Good luck.

Export Progress

In earlier versions of SQL Developer when I exported the query results I would see a running count of the number of records exported in the lower left of the window. With 3.2.10.09 when I export all I see is a barber-pole progress bar in the lower right but I don't get a running count of how many records have exported. Is this something that has been removed from more recent updates of SQL Developer? I'm on a Mac running OS X 10.6.8 if that makes any difference.

Powerpoint video export progress using ResampleMediaTask

Hi,
I am using Python 2.7.6 along with the win32com.client module in order to automate a couple of actions in Microsoft Powerpoint 2013.
This is my code so far:
import win32com.client
powerpoint = win32com.client.Dispatch("Powerpoint.Application")
presentation = PPobject.Presentations.Open(FileName='myFile.pptx', WithWindow=False)
try:
# May need a few other parameters as well
presentation.CreateVideo('out.wmv')
except:
raise SystemExit
The only info I have managed to retrieve so far is by polling the CreateVideoStatus attribute which only tells me if the conversion has ended or not.
while presentation.CreateVideoStatus == 1:
time.sleep(1)
How should I retrieve the "live" progress of exporting-to-video in Powerpoint?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'd ask in a python forum, we handle Microsoft scripting technologies here. Here's one possible place to try (I'm not personally sure if it's any good, I just asked my search engine):
http://www.python-forum.org/
Good luck.
EDIT: Slow on the punch today. You can also follow jrv's suggestion and ask PowerPoint development questions here (since I can't find a PP-specific forum):

What's with the 12 hour Export progress bar?

That's what it says, and that's after two hours of trying to encode a 20 minute clip using Export to QuickTime Conversion. It's 11% done. At this rate, it should be ready after midnight, EST. This can't be normal, or is it?
I did increase the bit rate and the dimensions, but those were the recommendations of the web viewer page (ExposureRoom) which I intend to upload the file to.
Is there an easier to get a web file with decent size and resolution?

Yeah, I think about faster, newer Macs as well, but you know what? In OS 9 the NLE I use (not FCE) has an encoder called Cleaner EZ - now out of business and support and updates - that gives me a compressed file in about 35 mins. It's fine for just putting something up that's casual, but I need a file that's sharp, since there's text in a PowerPoint presentation that people have to read. That's why I thought FCE/QuickTime would do the job.
Maybe it will in the end, but at present, I'm looking at 17 hours at 15% - something's amiss.,,in fact, it's absurd..would Apple make a product that took till next week to render files? And this 2003 MDD isn't all that old, really. (And I can't afford a new Pro either). I don't think its the computer. I also tried this footage in Compressor.... an MPEG 4 fast encode - and it split the video and audio into two files How am I supposed to get that up on the Web? A second try with FCE at normal settings for QT conversion only gave me a 56 MB file - looked awful.
Also, I should add that my original footage is SD. Generally that comes off fine when compressed from the 4.4 GB for the 20 mins. down to about 500MB, or even less. What I'm working with is a self-contained movie at the orginal size, of4.4 GB.
Any help appreciated,
thanks,

Export progress bar speeds to 50% then slows way down

While I'm here browsing for answers to another question I just asked, thought I would ask another one about a project I worked on at home...
Home computer specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64
AMD Phenom II 6-core 3.2ghz processor (overclocked to 4ghz)
16gb 1600mhz RAM
Nvidia GTS 450
Plenty of hard drive space, all 7200rpm internal
So my problem is with exporting... I was working with a 30 minute wmv file...and really all I did as far as editing goes...was cut off about 5 minutes from the beginning. That's it. No graphics, no effects...nothin.
So I proceed to export it as a wmv, I used stock settings because I honestly didn't care about the quality, I just wanted it done fast. Estimated file size was less than 100mb I think... The export process began
and speedily finished 50% of it in about 10 seconds and then slows to a crawl, where the time remaining was now going up 1 second at a time instead of down. By how slow it was going, it was probably going to
take about a half hour, which is bs for exporting to a crappy file type with low quality settings. My work comp has lower specs than this computer, and it exports 30 minutes of my avchd footage in the same amount
of time...
This seems like Premiere has an issue with certain file types here.
Any help?

yah i was thinking the same thing, the 2 pass is what is causing your timing dilemma, 50% was just the first pass analysis. The rest is the real rendering process.
Being crappy video with a crappy codec has nothing to do with speed, if anything it is going to make it slower. You didn't say how long it actually took to render out your video? With WMV i am guessing it is not multithreaded well and not using all 6 of your cores. try turning off maximum quality on your encoder and check your wmv settings, it is just a container and gives you lots of codec choices. it certainly is not the fastest thing out there but it appears you are being forced to use it anyways?

Exporting Progressive Footage

Hi There.
I have a Sony Z5 and have played with the 25P HDV setting. I like the effect and wish to use it on shoots. When I started to edit the footage, it dawned on me that I had no real true idea of how to import it and then export it.
I bought into PP CS5 as HDV 1080 2p5 but not sure If I should be usuing this one (I am in the UK where PAL is used).
Once I had edited I wanted to export out and not sure which settings I should use. I have tested a few using "Match Source" and them playing around. The source would say 25fps Prog but the output shows as Upper with no room to change.
I may be causing myself more headaches than I should but wonder if it makes much difference and if someone with more experiince that I could offer a workflow?
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the help.
Final destination of footage will be mixed, sometimes Blu-ray, other times (when less that 25mins) a regular DVD as AVCHD using Encore to build a Blu-ray image and ImgBurn to create the DVD.
Which preset would you suggest for the export? I noticed there are some HDTV ones... would one of these be best and if so which? I think chosing a preset would more than likely mean I would have to tweak something or other and therefor making a custom one. It would be useful to know though if a Preset would work for my needs and that i was getting the best output possible.
Just as a matter for the look of the film. I have heard a lot about the Programme 6 preset on the Sony Z5 and used this along with the 25P setting. I think the footage looks good but doesn't soften much or give the yellowish tint you kinda associate with Film. If anyone has a better experience with the presets within the camera, be good to know.
Thanks again for your help

"low memory" in exporting to progressive JPEG

hi, anyone knows how to deal with "low memory" or "low virtual memory" error when export file to progressive JPEG? it happens when file is from a few mb to 30 mb. if file is only under 1mb will be ok. I got pretty new pc: xp pro with dualcore 2.6 ghz and 4 gb ram, but it can not export 10 mb indd file to progressive JPEG. i did adjust page file to max 20000mb. but does not work. thanks for help.

it's only working a few times after computer got fresh start or restart, then"low memory" msg up again and can not to export progressive jpeg as 300 resolution. anyone has ever experienced this issue? is it possible that RAM type does not match with motherboard?
