Export to Encore - DV Project - 4:3 Rendering Benchmarks

I am trying to export a 4:3 DV Project which was originally analog VHS converted to DV-Media to Encore. I am using a Vista Ultimate 32 Computer with a Q6700 Quad Core 2.7Ghz processing and 3.5 GB or RAM, but even though all edited footage was rendered, the process to Export is rendering for a Progressive Scan - High Quality Disc Burn and estimating over 65 hours??? When I first noticed this estimate and that the rendering is was only utilizing about 25% of CPU capacity (8 hours into the burn)I cancelled the job thinking that there must have been some kind of mistake in the settings. I then opened Premiere Pro as the administrator and kicked off the job again. I'm now 6 hours into the same render and it is confirming another 63 hours.
Does this seem right? This is not HD/HDV footage, it's just DV?

Unfortunately it looks like it's going to take that full time. 9 hours or so in and it's still showing another 60 hours to go. I'm not sure if this is a problem with Vista, or a difference between progressive and non-progressive video rendering or not - but when rendering previous videos I always got to 100% CPU( x4 - Quad) utilization (or close to it). I'm only using about 25-30% capacity now which seems really odd.
I'm not using any other applications on the PC in use for the rendering - I even increased the priority for the job (and I'm running it as the administrator).

Export problem "A serious error has occured", or hang, upon export to Encore.

Hello,
I am using adobe Premiere CS3 3.2
I am trying to export my project to a DVD. I've been told that the best way to do this with minimizing quality loss is to export to Encore.
My project has some filters that affect system memory and have locked up the computer numerous times before, like Looks Suite and Noise Remover (on some clips)
when I choose export to Encore, then choose settings, I get the error "A Serious Error has occured...." Then I trried lowering the settings, and I got the window that says "Rendering", at least, but nothing appeared in that window after I left it overnight.
So I have some questions:
- What's the best thing I can do to export my movie onto a DVD with minimum loss of quality?
- Should I export as a video file first? Which is the best quality? Then can I export to Encore?
- Does it help to pre-render my entire project in Premiere first, THEN export to Encore?
I'd appreciate some advice.
Thanks!
EDIT: I just tried to export as a Quicktime Uncompressed video with the regular method (Export-> Movie).. and it gave me the error "Could not compile movie..." then the message "adobe premiere pro is running very low on system memory"
So I am assuming this is a memory issue? Then what should I do??
Also, I want to ask- If I put my entire project with all its files onto an external hard drive, then move them to another computer with adobe premiere pro installed which also has the same filters installed, would I be able to export this way?

I am quite sure it is a memory problem... the computer exported other videos in the past just fine, but its never been used for making a film with a lot of filters and such that run down the memory, and so it gives me the memory errors.
I am not sure what is "Memtest86+"... I would like to try such a program, but in fact this is not my computer... I am using a Workstation at a University and now I have limited time to complete my project (I must figure out a solution by the end of the day on Monday)
Maybe AVI is the best for some... but I have done comparisons beforehand which found .mov to be the best... and I was even told that uncompressed quicktime doesn't lose quality at all (though in fact it seems to just a bit). So if you not completely sure which will be better, I will go with .mov.
So I will try a few things- like exporting only the "special" clips which used a lot of filters on individually as .mov, then reimporting them into the project, then trying to export the whole thing into encore... If that does not work, I will try to export fragments as.mov (because if I try to export too much at one time, it has the memory error->crash).. then create a new project, import the .mov files, and export to Encore.
I only have limited time to solve this problem.. do you all think I am taking the right steps?
Also one key question I have is about the audio.. do you recommend that I export all of the audio into one wav file, and then put that into the new project? Or should I just export the quicktime files, with their audio, into the project and keep it like that?
I appreciate the help, again

Project crashing during rendering

Hi all again,
Ive a new problem that may be a simple Premier Pro CS3 software reinstall but first I thought to seek further advice.
During the rendering processes (to Encore) Im frequently having system errors with PP needing to shut down.
The error message is;
C\DOCUME''1\user\locals'1\temp\143d-appcompat.txt
Any advice as to what this might b pointing to or other sugestions to get remdering process running better.
With persistance the projects will render and export to Encore but i may take any attempts
The Computer Specs;
Intel (R) Core (TM)
E6750 @ 2.66GHz
2.67GHz, 1.97 GB of Ram
Windows XP Professional version 2002
Cheers

In some instances you will experience crashes during renders if the automatic screensaver kicks in during the process. Goto your desktop and ramp the screensaver up as high as it goes. You may find this fixes that nasty problem.

Looking for a sample of the Flash Export from Encore CS3

I am close to upgrading to the CS3 Production Premium and one of the features that intrigues me is the Flash export from Encore CS3. I have searched the Adobe site without success for a sample of what an exported project looks like and functions on the web. Can anyone point me to a on-line sample of an exported project? Thanks in advance :)

'Black Gaps' in Flash usually come from the Flash trying to locate & load the next Flash file. Without a Pre-Loader, you will probably always have this... especially if your quality is set too high. This equates to longer load/buffer times which means there is nothing to display until there is enough video loaded in the buffer to play.
If your ultimate goal is to create Video for the Web... you'll need to learn proper techniques for producing video for the web. It is much different than producing video for TV or DVD. On the web you have to compress your video a lot more therefore you should not use a lot of Motion/Movement in your Characters, Camera, Media, Motion Backgrounds, etc. The less Motion/Movement you have means you can lower your quality settings but still get awesome looking video & good load times eliminating the Black Gaps and making an all around smoother internet presentation/experience.

Exporting to Encore from Premiere

Hi all,
I have Premiere Pro CS6 and I have completed my ediring in Premiere. I am ready to export the work so I can place it into Encore and do more work.
However in Premiere , I go to export, media and do all the settings. Yet I cannot work out what option to use so the work can be recognised by Encore.
Also is their an option like their was back in CS3 were you can export your work straight to Encore?
Thank you

1. In Premiere Pro, select a sequence.
2. (Optional) Add Encore chapter markers, if desired. See Add Encore chapter markers.
3. (Optional) If you are producing a sequence for standard-definition output that includes high-definition clips, select Maximum
Render Quality before using Dynamic Link to send the sequence to Encore for DVD authoring. This does not apply to HD
sequences that use Dynamic Link for Blu-Ray Disc authoring.
4. Choose File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Send To Encore.
5. On the Basic tab in the New Project dialog box, type a name for the disc into the Name field.
6. (Optional) Click Browse and browse to a location for the Encore project, to change it from the default location.
7. In the Project Settings pane, select the name of the authoring mode desired.
The sets of options available in the Settings area and on the Advanced tab depend on whether Blu-ray or DVD is the
authoring mode.
The authoring mode can be changed at any time in Encore, in the Project Settings dialog box.
8. (Optional) Click Advanced, and select the desired transcoding settings.
9. Click OK.
Premiere Pro starts Encore. The Encore Project panel contains the dynamically linked Premiere Pro project and sequence.
10. Finish authoring and exporting in Encore. For more information about using Encore to author and build DVDs, Blu-ray discs
and SWF files, see Encore Help.

'project must be rendered before it can be encoded'

Why do I always get the message 'project must be rendered before it can be encoded' when I try to export using quicktime conversion to product an mpeg2 for DVD Studio Pro?

Beeeeeecause the project must be rendered before it can be encoded.
Based on my experience, this is the workflow you should use for going from Final Cut Pro to DVD:
1. Finish your project. You'd be amazed how many people forget this step.
2. Export a QuickTime reference movie. That is to say, do "Export" then "QuickTime Movie," but leave the "make self-contained" box unchecked.
3. Drop the resulting QuickTime onto Compressor.
4. Select one of the DVD encoding presets, based on the length of your material. Use one of these:
DVD: Best Quality 150 minutes
DVD: Best Quality 120 minutes
DVD: Best Quality 90 minutes
5. The encode will go as fast as it can, depending on how you set up Compressor. If you're using eight processors, it'll go pretty darned fast.
6. Drop the resulting ".m2v" and ".ac3" files onto the "assets" window in DVD Studio Pro. Place them on a track, and finish your DVD just like you would under any other circumstances.

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!

Updating Encore CS4 project with subsequent changes in Premiere Pro CS4

Hi, I would like some help with the following issue (I could not find anything in the documentation):
If I create an Encore project (CS4), then watch the resulting DVD and realise that I still need to make a few changes in my original premiere Project / sequence, is there any way of updating the Encore Project without having to start from scratch?
When I tried this today, Encore still just told me about the transcoded previous version of my sequence and I could find no way of convincing the programme that the sequence had changed. When I tried to import the new sequence, for some reason the import function showed me only the top two levels of my directory tree and so I would not access the right directory to try if that option would have worked.
In the end I started a new project, but I guess there must be a better way, especially if you have already finished a complicated menu set-up etc.
Many thanks for your help.

If you dynamic linked, select the sequence in Encore (not the timeline made from it), right click and "Revert to Original."
If you did not dynmamic link, but exported and kept the project embedded, you can right click and pick "Edit Original."
For exports, you can also use the "Replace asset," but use a different name.

Exporting to Encore Burn issue!!

Ok so for some reason this problem just started! If I export to Encore without menus to just burn a copy of a sequense it gives me an error. It will render fine but when in encore and building the dvd it gives me this
PGC "project name" has an error at "Time code"
Internal software error %0, line (project name)-PGC Info:Name=(project name), Pref=bpgc, (time code)
Its always like the last few tenths of a second and I have tried shortning the sequence so its before the error but it just gives me a new one.
Does anybody have anything to help me with this??

Simon,

Exporting to Encore for Blu-ray

Hi all
Couple of questions guys before I get stuck into some blu-ray projects
I have a couple of HDV projects that I want to get onto a Blu-ray disc. I have a burner and a test timeline went well - using /export to encore/ with default settings for MPEG2 Blu-ray / direct burn no authoring.
However, if I want to get a few projects on one disc I need to export manually and use encore properly. From Premiere AME I am not sure whether to use the H264-Blu-ray option or the MPEG2-Blu-ray. I assume in either case I set the size to 1440x1080 to match hdv?
Looking at the settings, I think I will get a smaller filesize using H264 and I just know its gonna take longer, but is there anything else to consider - will h264 result in better quality on end disc?
Now when I get to Encore, should I change default settings for new Blu-ray project to 1440x1080 - or leave at default 1920x1440. I understand I need to stop encore from re trancoding.
Any pointers would be much appreciated
Thanks
Mike

Thank you! I've made it to the transcoding stage! (So my fingers are crossed!)
I tried saving the original PSD files as new PSD files (as the original were temp files; which, in hindsight, might have been the issue, as I hear different drives tend to mess up Encore's transcoding process), then I re-imported the PSDs as new menus within Encore. Sure, I had to re-link all the chapters again, but it was made a lot easier thanks to Encore's "Auto-name (sic.)" feature that automatically detects chapter names. Thanks so much! I could kiss you. So many hours wasted trying to resolve this! I really hope I can get this prototype burned overnight!

Export to Encore from Premiere - Set DVD Title?

I am new to Encore.
I tried to Export to Encore from Premiere. The DVD turns out fine, but the DVD is named "Untitled Project" and I'd like to give the disc a custom title.
I saved the Encore project, gave the disc a title, and the titling works out fine, but the DVD has no sound.
I have tried both of these processes two times each, and the same thing happens.
Given the choice between a custom title and sound, I certainly want the disc to have sound. But how do I get both?
Help help help.

Thank you for your reply.
I used a short disc title in Encore, which was PANDORA. The titles winds up on the DVD, but no sound.
But when I export the video from Premiere to Encore, I don't see a place where I can enter a custom name. So it names the DVD Untitled Project. Can you tell me where that is in Premiere?

Audio goes out of sync when Blu-ray folder is exported from Encore CS6

I compile a project in Encore using H.264 and .wav files. The audio plays fine directly from the timeline. It also plays fine when I preview it from Encore. When I finally export it as a set of Blu-ray folders, the audio exports out of sync with the video. It is approximately 6-7 seconds ahead of the video. What am I doing incorrectly? When I mux the files into an .MKV, the video is in sync with the audio so I know the files themselves do not have different start times.
I am running with an HP Z820 with Windows 7, 64-bit OS and 16GB RAM.

For anyone who's interested, I found a solution to this problem. Once imported into Encore, the leader in on the video and audio files cannot be trimmed at all. (I had been trimming the beginning of the video and matching audio file to eliminate the 8 seconds of dead space at the start of the clips.) Although the trim took effect immediately in the Encore timeline and I could also watch it in preview in sync, exporting was another story. The audio track seems to retain the trim when exporting but the video track does not, hence the 6-7 second delay between audio and video.
I reimported the files to my project and left in the 8 seconds of dead space at the start and voila! The video and audio match up when exported.
Ideally the trim tool would just work as its supposed to through export and all, but at least I found a solution I can work with.
(As a note, the trim works just fine in export on Encore CS5. I only had this problem with Encore CS6.)

Red frames when exported to encore

Not sure if this is an encore or a premiere pro problem
I am trying to create a blu ray disc from a video shot in HDV.
I have captured and edited my video in premiere pro and it looks great but I am having problems getting it on to a blu ray disc. I am using premiere pro CS3.
If I export to encore or use the adobe media encoder I end up with a few clips being affected by being replaced with bright red frames.
Now I have tried this on two projects and its always the same clips which are affected
so I have started a new project gone back to the source footage and captured just a clip which was affected and tried to encode that single clip with the same results it gets corrupted into red frames.
The clip plays perfectly well in premiere pro and can be exported back to tape without any problems ...so what is going on

Thanks for responding Jeff.
Its hard to know what has corrupted the frames as sometimes after encoding i get some completely red frames and some whith a little of what should be there showing through.
It happens consistantly on two clips that I have been using in different projects.
so as I said before I have created a new project gone back to the original and recaptured those two clips into my new project and tried to encode them in several different ways but all fail to encode properly.
This is a Pal Project recorded captured and edited in HDV
I used the MPEG2 settings and frame size of 1440X1080.
I first used the default setting for 1440x1080 quality high, with a default qualty of 4 and then increased the quality to 5 without improving things.
Ive tried reducing the target bit rate from the default to 20, still the same.
Ive tried using CBR instead of VBR 2 pass. still no difference.
My machine is a Dual Quadcore Xeon processors. with 4 GB of ram and a Matrox RTX2 card. both my video hard discs have around 50% free.
I really am struggling to know what is wrong.

Sound problems exporting a 16:9 project to my DV camcorder (FCE HD)

I was ready to "print" my video to my DV camcorder, Final Cut rendered my video and audio and I hit play and the camera started to record. But immediatly when the camera began recording the project, weird "Digital" disorted sounds were playing on the camera during export. The project was fully rendered. I switched out firewire cables, but still the same problem; I even switched out cameras and the distortions remained, almost as if they were on the video. I then exported my 16:9 project to a high-quality DV file and it played fine. I even imported the video file from my project into iMovie HD and it played fine. What could the distortions be? I know for a fact its not my camera, tape or firewire because I mixed them up. Please assist.

Cannot export to Encore from PPCC2014

I have CC2014 (& Encore), all updated. Win7 64 Ult, updated. File > Adobe Dynamic Link is supposed to be able to send a project to Encore. But Encore is not listed. The PPCC2014 project has no yellow or red lines on the timeline. The project is just AVI files that came from the same camera (Canon GL1) I have used for years. How do I export to Encore?
Is there a way to burn a DVD directly from PPCC2014?
Thanks
Dennis

I was doing the export from PPCC2014 via MPEG2-DVD (and with its audio) and then to bring those two into Encore CS6 as assets. So I was aware of that method.
But I was hoping there was a method to bring the PPCC2014 project directly into Encore CS6. I had hoped if this could be done it would save time.
I was aware that Encore is not a part of CC2014. I have a license for CS6 and subscription for CC2014 components.
One of the help files I read said that File > Adobe Dynamic Link is supposed to be able to send a project to Encore. But it is not an option in my PPCC2014.
Is there a method to burn a DVD direct from PPCC2014?
