Exporting mp4 adds white frame to the end

Every time I export an mp4 I'm getting an added white frame at the very end of the video. I'm using the render queue and exporting with the windows media setting in the adobe media exporter. I've tried shortening my comp but that doesn't solve the problem. Any suggestions?
thanks

Hi Mylenium,
Thanks for responding. I'm using the standard H.264 export settings from AE. It doesn't occur when using QTs Mp4 settings but the quality that I'm getting from that is pretty bad which is why I started using the H.264 exporter in AE. The other thing I liked about it was the file size to quality ratio. I also don't think the mp4s will stream in flash, which is what the final goal is with the files. I have tried changing the settings so that my duration is an even time like 23:00 seconds.
I see this issue in various places on the internet and I'm not sure what is causing it.
Thanks again.

  • Compressor white frame at the end of WMP

    I want to use compressor and flipformac to produce my windows media files. I have 50 clips to move so I wanted to take advantage of the automation.
    Every clip it finishes as a wmp9 using the flipForMac quicktime plugin has a white frame at the end of it. Any way to get rid of that?
    I downgraded my flipformac to the 1.0.2 from the 2.0 that is there current release because of a known bug that causes floating green chroma crap to appear on the wmp doc. I also tried using Sorrenson Squeeze to batch, but Sorrenson can't compress 720p codec footage that is the DVCPRO HD codec. (again, known bug they are working on). I tried downconverting the HD footage to SD and having compressor do it and still .... white frame. So then I tried cleaner... it just crashes... I hate cleaner.
    sorry for the rant... can anyone help.

    Is there a chance your source footage has the same white frame before you encode it? I've never seen this problem.
    As far as flip4mac, there is a work around in the current version to avoid the green monster. With a Two Pass VBR Constrained, set your Peak Bit Rate to 1.5x. This makes your encode closer to a CBR, but eliminates the compression artifacts. Also in the advanced settings, a shorter Key Frame frequency will improve overall quality.
    Sorry I'm not more help with the white frame. What version of Compressor are you using? I've done close to 100 encodes in the last month and haven't encountered this. What are your source files? Quicktime out of FCP? Reference files?

  • Compressor adds a white picture at the end

    When I convert a Quicktime video exported from FCP into MP4, Compressor adds a white picture at the end of some clips.
    What I have to do is to make my video longer or shorter if I don't want this white picture (my video should stop on a still frame with a text).
    I don't know what it is due to but it's really boring because it takes me sometimes a long time to find the right length to get no white picture at the end...
    Does anyone know this problem ?
    What is the issue ?
    Thanks for your help.
    Sand

    This might be an "outpoint" issue in your original FCP file.
    (choosing the end of the last frame instead of beginning of last frame)
    See Volume II pages 101-117 of the FCP 5 PDF user manual.

    Have you seen my User Tipp here
    "Movie Magic" with Stills and Dissolve
    When you 'prep' your stills in any 'picture app', you can do a lot of marvel by simply applying dissolves.
    In your case, I would create a white document (in Pixelmator, Keynote, Photshop, online at pixlr.com, whatever ...) and another with your logo (and further more ones with additional logos). Drag the jpgs into your iMovie Project and apply dissolves  - tadahh! - logos appear on white.

  • Compressor adding white frames at the head of the movie converted

    i used compressor to convert footage from mp4 to Apple prores 1024x576 16x9 and also change different frame rates to 25 fps
    I resized all the big videos to 1024x576 and maintained the smaller videos like 640x360 in its original size as i will composite them together to maintain quality.
    everything went well as compressor makes a very good job in resizing and frame rate coversion.
    i noticed that compressor added at the head of the movies a white frame on most of the converted movies
    and after importing the movies to fcp 6  i found that every time i use a movie with a white frame in the head Fcp crashes.
    is it because of the frame rate as i noticed that the white frames are in the movies with for example 23.98 that were conformed to 25.
    i cannot edit because of fcp quits.

    What do you have the most of? 1920, 1280, SD?
    What is the final deliveable? web, broadcast, blu-ray, SD DVD?
    Maintaining the aspect ratio can be done in your sequence settings whether your sequence is HD or SD.
    640x360 will still only fill about 1/2 of the 1280x720 screen at 100%.
    You can scale it to fill the screen but you will take a quality hit.
    In most cases putting 1920 in a 1280 sequence isn't going to make the baby jesus of quality cry.
    In my experience upscaling SD outside of FC in another program doesn't usually help with quality.
    I do the scaling in FC and know that I will have to render. I would still use Compressor for the frame rate codec conversion but do not change the source size unless you are converting to a more friendly broadcast size.
    You may want to consider that SD footage doesn't have to fill the entire screen.
    You can do other treatments to the footage so that you still fill the entire screen but the actual footage isn't being scaled to fill the entire screen. Blurred footage, stills, etc for a background can help with this.

  • Frozen frame at the end of every clip

    Without transitions, there is a frozen frame at the end of every clip that can be very distracting. Is there a way to disable this? I've been putting transitions in, which works, but I don't want to have to do that.
    Thanks,
    Elsa

    Thank you very much! Sorry it took me a while to get back to you. This ended up working! It ***** that I have to add this extra step, but I'm glad there is a work around. Thanks again for you help.

  • How to add a string at the End of TLFTextField without loosing current text format!

    I have a TLFTextField that loads text from external text file.
    Then a function changes the format of some parts.
    Then as soon as I add a string at the end of my TLFTextField, All previous formatting is lost!
    I use this code to add string:
    myTLF.text += "." ;
    or
    myTLFText.text = myTLFText.text.concat(".");
    Should I use another method??

    pass the text through your formatting function again, or try appendText:
    myTLF.appendText(".") ;

  • How to add a signature at the end of each post

    How do you add a signature at the end of each post (if possible)?
    ^^right now, I just have to copy and paste that

    It's possible to set up your signature on the Desktop such that it can be simply dragged into the Camera icon's "From the Web" field...
    1. Right click on an already posted pic
    2. Choose "Open Link in New Tab"
    3. From the address bar of that new tab, drag the URL's favicon (little icon) to your Desktop whereupon an "@" icon will be created
    The above only has to be done once, and then to use that image in future posts...
    1. Click the Camera icon
    2. Click "From the Web"
    3. Drag the URL's "@" icon from your Desktop to the URL field and click Insert Image
    And if you want your signature instead of a generic "@" icon, that's possible too:

  • Is it possible to add a word at the end of a line?

    Hi, i'm searching a way to automatically add a word at the end of a certain paragraph styles?
    is it something possible doing by using a script?
    i don't script myself but if someone could find me a way to do this it would be really appreciated.
    Here's an example to what i need to do:
    i have paragraph style X in a current  book document, and i need to edit the book and add the copyright source at the end of every line that has the style X to it
    so i would need something that asks me
    the targeted paragraph style
    which word i want to append to it, and then apply it torough the document.
    Thanks in advance

    Yes, the screen shot shows where you got it wrong:
    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    Find: (.)$
    and set your paragraph style in the find format area
    Change: $1XYZ
    where XYZ is the text you want to insert.
    .. you forgot the '1' right after the '$'. It's an important omission: "$1" is a GREP code, meaning "insert the found text, parenthesized group #1" -- and there is also a "$2", "$3", etc. up to "$9". It's great if you have to switch two, or even more, items around! But without the digit, the dollar sign indicates ... just a dollar sign.
    Change the Change to text to
    $1~S(CEMEQ)
    and you'll be fine.

  • I just got a white frame in the middle of my images in viewer mode. What is it and how did it get there and how do i get rid of it.

    I just got a white frame in the middle of my images in viewer mode in Aperture 3. What is it and how did it get there and how do i get rid of it?

    Just fishin' ...
    Is by any chance "View→Show focus points" checked?
    Does the frame persist after closing and re-opening Aperture?
    Notice anything else different?
    To post a screen shot, you first take it, them upload it.  To take them, I use and recommend Skitch -- one of the best little apps ever.  But this ability is built into OS X.  Use Grab or Preview (search OS X Help for full directions).  In Preview, use "File→Take screen shot ... →From selection ... ".  Save the file in Preview to your drive.  In the Discussion forum click the "Insert Image" icon (a camera) and select the file you created in Preview.

  • My time Frame indicator stops one frame before the end...?

    Basically what the header says, which means every rendering I do is putting a black frame at the end of everything, so, for example, doing a Vine loop vid effect is proving impossible, because of the black frame it  puts at the end of everything.
    Any help please for this novice, would be greatly appreciated, its driving me crazy, hope it/s something simple.
    Cheers Simon.

    There is nothing wrong. AE operates on genuine time and a discrete frame is sampled at its temporal entry point. and nothing stops you from creating perfect loops, you just need to understand this little thing.

  • When exporting a .wmv in After Effects 5 the export adds additional black/Blank frames at the end

    We are experiencing an issue where we or a client provides us with a video that is a .wmv video, exported from After Effects 5 and it adds almost a second of data less video.
    What I mean by data less is the video renders out as WMV, 30FPS, 24 Bitrates (No audio) that is say 7 seconds long within After Effects. The moment it is rendered/exported, it is 8 seconds and shows 8 seconds in any program we import it to. That last second is empty, there is no frames, not even black frames, and when you preview the video in any program, you see the scrub bar, drop about 1 second before the actual end of the timeline.
    I opened the video in Camtasia, and you can clearly see that at the end, it shows in the timeline (Video Editor), however there is no actual video.
    I import the video in my company’s software, and I move the frame scrubber at the end, it says 'Unable to retrieve the requested video frame.'. If we import it to our software, it sees no frames for that second, and automatically loops and adds the first second of the video to the end.
    Typically we only import uncompressed AVIs, but would like to know what this issue is.
    Windows 7 Enterprise
    64bit OS
    After Effects 5

    I 100% agree about not being a fan of .WMV. We only recently added .wmv video support to our own program our clients use for importing videos and graphics. Our customer only used .wmv because it was on our list, and we are running into this issue.
    Two different users (our own Graphic Artist, and our clients Graphic Artist) and we get the same result. We are 100% certain there is no video framerate mismatch in either of the AE files.
    It would be interesting to see if anyone else using AE, if they could make a video few seconds long, export as a WMV and see if another program shows a whole extra second at the end, that has no data.
    Thanks for your responses thus far.
