General error when trying to export as a QT movie

Everytime I try to export as a .mov from the timeline (FCP 4.1) I get a general error code. I can export as an .avi file, open in QT Pro and then to a .mov file.
I am having the same issue on two different machines, one is a Quicksilver and the other is a Gigabit Ethernet, same OS and version of Final Cut Pro.
Is there any preference I forgot to change, or got changed without my knowledge.
I need a little coaching here I am still new to the complexities of the programs.

I am exporting to my media drive which is the fourth partition of the master HD and is formated OS Extended (journaled).
By master HD do you mean the system drive? The one with your OS and all applications? And I assume that when you say media drive that you also capture to that partition?
Might not be the cause of your problem but that's about the worst setup you can have for capturing and playing media with FCP. The system drive has to run the OS, run the programs, capture and playback footage! That's a lot of work. And partitioning does not help in that respect... still just one physical drive, and some would say that partitioning slows thing down even more since the heads have to jump from partition to partition to perform various tasks.
If I've misread your post I apologize for going on, but if not, you should really consider adding another drive for capture.

    Hi,
    From your description, when you export a SharePoint list to excel from chrome, you get an error.
    In my SharePoint 2013, when I export a SharePoint list to excel from chrome, it works fine.
    For your issue, make sure the excel client have been installed in your environment.
    To narrow down the issue, I would like to confirm the following information:
    To check whether the issue is related to the browser, I suggest you to do a test in other browsers, such as IE and compare the results.
    What version is your office client? office 2013 or 2010? 32bit or 64 bit?

    Hi Martin,
    We are using OAM also. So, It might cause these errors. We will try to Install it from the beginning....
    Thanks....
    But, I have another issue.
    1) We put our new changes by running patch_jboss.cmd file. After doing this, if we run xlStartServer.bat on <OIM_HOME>\bin directory, we can see all the changes.
    But, if we start jBoss using <JBoss>\bin\run.bat file, we can not see any changes. I try to clear cache using PurgeCache.bat file. But, it is still not working....
    2) When we start Jboss using xlStartServer.bat file, loggs are not written into <JBOSS>\server\default\log\server.log file. I try to configure using best practice guide. But, it is still not working...If I start JBoss using run.bat file on jboss, it writes loggs to server.log file..
    3) Earlier, when we are doing development, we did not use OAM server to connecto to web site. So, for some customizations, I get the current user's userLogin from
    <bean:define id="userLogin" name = "userMemberOfForm" property="userID" type="java.lang.String"/>..This works fine..
    But, since we are going to use OAM or Windows authentication to connect to OIM web in live, it returns null or empty for "userLogin"....(if we use the above code)...How can I get the userLogin of the current login user....???

  • I get "General Error" when trying to playback unrendered video, and when trying to export to my desktop and I'm not sure why.

    I import video footage into Final Cut Pro 7, added some effects like motion blur and colour correction, and cannot playback the video whilst it is not rendered. I click the play button but it just says "general error". This also happens when trying to export to my desktop "general error" once again. Does anyone know what is going on?
    My RT settings are:
    Safe RT or Unlimited RT (I get the error on either setting)
    Framerate & video quality - Dynamic
    27" iMac i7 @ 3.4GHz
    4GB Ram
    2GB Radeon 6970m

    Hmmmm it seems to be just that file. The rest of my files are fine. I tweaked some settings and tried other files and it worked, so maybe it was just me, I am very new to Final Cut after all. Turns out I'm OK now! Thanks anyway!

  • Unknown Error when trying to export movie with certain PNG files in Adobe Premiere

    Hi!
    I've made an animation video in Premiere Pro CC2014 combining apple pro-res live action with png animation. When trying to export, some parts of the video are no problem, and some (seemingly random) png files Adobe Premiere just doesn't like?? I don't understand why it will export some and not others?
    Help??!
    Thanks so much!!

    Error compiling movie can be anything from gap to bad clip, transition, effect, nest, you name it.
    Export from AME with preview open and watch were in the timeline it goes wrong.
    That is the place to fix it.

  • "General error" while trying to export my movie.

    Hi all, I saw a few threads with this topic but no one seems to have a solution so I thought I would post a new one hoping for a miracle
    I have a small movie that I made that I want to export with "using quicktime conversion" option. As soon as I rename the title and choose a destination, I get the "General Error" message that pops up with no number or error code attached to it. I tried saving the file to different hard drives with a lot of space to spare and still won't work. I also did the "render all" option before trying to export my movie. BTW, I'm only at around 11 minutes of movie and my whole project should be about 2 hours...
    Also, I chose the correct AVCHD 1920 X 1080 codec since my original data comes from my Canon HF200.
    When i was only a few minutes into my project, I did a test film and I managed to export it but had no sound when playing the test movie on my WDTV (that's another problem though) but now it won't even export at all... Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    A couple things to try:
    1. Decrease the amount of RAM allowed to the application and see if it was a problem with the OS not having enough to function.
    2. Basic troubleshooting procedure, trashing preferences and repairing permissions:

  • 'general error' when trying to get clip from browser to viewer

    I'm trying to put together a short instructional video (a kind of 'quick intro' on what a particular website is all about).
    Some clips in the video consist of screen captures (made with iShowU) while others are 'live' from a firewire camcorder.
    There's no problem with the camcorder clips. All going according to plan there.
    However, *when I try to get the screen grab clips from the browser to the viewer (to mark in/out points, etc), I get a 'general error' message followed in quick succession by an 'out of memory' message*. (I have 8GB ram so I'm sure memory's not the issue.)
    I can drag the screen grab clips from the browser directly to a sequence in the timeline, but not to the viewer.
    Neither quitting FCP nor logging out (and back in again) fixes the problem. (BTW, I'm working with a PAL setup on the camera and am capturing in PAL dimensions in iShowU, if this has any relevance here.)
    I'm tearing my hair out... Maybe it's something very simple that I'm doing wrong? *Any ideas on how I might get the screen grab clips from the browser to the viewer?*
    TIA.
    Hugh

    Sounds like iShowU may be writing a less-than-valid QuickTime file.
    If you can successfully drag one of these items into the timeline, I'd drag it in and then File->Export->QuickTime Movie... checking the Make Movie Self-Contained box. If this works and you have a lot of clips you might try dragging them all into a timeline and then saving them as one big movie. Sounds like they're not that long so such an approach shouldn't get you into FCP performance problems.
    Another approach would be to open each movie in QuickTime and do a Save As... with the "Save as self-contained movie" option.
    Either way these will probably write a MOV file that FCP will be happy with.
    Good Luck!

  • Using SSRS local mode, receive invalid token error when trying to export the report when running in worker thread

    We're using ASP.net with .Net 4, developing with Visual Studio 2012.  We use SSRS 2012sp1 with local reports, so exporting the report ourselves instead of using a reportviewer control (and not using the SQL Reporting service).  The reports are
    executing fine when we export the report in the main thread, but if we spawn a worker thread and run a report there we receive the following error when calling Render():
    Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Failed to load expression host assembly. Details: Invalid token for impersonation - it cannot be duplicated.
    We only receive this when running a report that uses expressions on a separate thread.  I've tried running the application pool under all the default built-in accounts (NetworkService, etc), and under admin user accounts to no avail.
    This didn't occur with the previous version of our application which used .net 3.5.

    As mentioned, we are not using the Reportviewer control, we are rendering locally.  Not certain if that would make a difference.
    Also, I had tried using all the built-in accounts.  Just for kicks I changed it to LocalSystem again, then reset IIS (see image below).  I then tried to export the report in a worker thread and received the same error.
    Here is the text from the exception:

  • Why is Premiere getting an error when trying to export .MXF files?

    Hello!
    I have a video that I need to submit to DMDS and it must be a .mxf file. This is the first time I've ever had to export a .mxf so I am not too familiar with the type. I have been exporting every other type of file for years and never had an issue (H.264, quicktime, etc.). However, when I try exporting .mxf I get the generic rendering error which then stops the export.
    The first time I tried, the video was down to 12 minutes left (after about 2 and a half hours) when I got the error.
    The next time, it crashed right away with over 2 hours still remaining.
    So it does not seem to be a corrupt clip because: A) I've been rendering this video out as other file types for rough previews, drafts, etc and it's worked fine and B) The 2 crash times were on opposite ends of the spectrum.
    I am running an iMac with OSX 10.7.5, 3.06 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 8GB ram...I am using Premiere Pro Version 6.0.0
    I do have Third Party plug ins installed but have never had an issue exporting in the past, only with this .mxf file.
    Thanks in advance for any and all help!

    If you have GPU accelertation enabled in Premiere Pro, try switching to Software Only.
    Are you queuing the job to AME or clicking "Export" in the Export Settings dialog (which encodes directly through Premiere)? Whichever path you're going down, try the other one.
    I'd also keep an eye on your resource usage, especially RAM, while encoding in progress. With 8GB of RAM, I'd be surprised if that were the problem.
    Lastly, if you're encoding through AME, then you might want to post on that product's forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/ame

  • Why am I getting an error when trying to export a jpeg at 300 dpi?

    I am trying to export a 18" x 24" illustrator file to a jpg at RGB 72dpi and CMYK 300 dpi.  72, no problem but when I try to export at 300 I get an error message. Any ideas why this is happening?

    Not so much a RAM problem as it may be a scratch disk problem.  Illustrator may be looking for 1.) a place to put the file, and 2.) enough scratch space to accomplish the op.  Try opening the .ai file using Photoshop using the size 18 x 24 @ 300 ppi in the Open dialog.  That will rasterize the file ( not sure why you'd want to ).

  • Error when trying to export as Flash

    I'm attempting to export my very small test project as Flash, but two errors occur:
    1. Adobe Encore has encountered an error. [..\..\src\AMEEncoder.cpp-2359]
    There is only a "Continue" button to click, so I click it and the Build Progress bar finishes and states "Completed". I then click "OK" and get this second error:
    2. "An input contract violation has occurred!"
    There is only an "OK" button to click, so I click it and that's it.
    I try to play the swf or index.html that was created and though the Flash build opens to my main menu, complete with correct navigation and highlights states, their respective videos do not playback when selected from the menu. Only a blank black screen appears. If I click Pause or Play respectively, nothing changes, but I can select the "Next" button and it initiates my set end action for that clip and correctly returns me to the main menu. So, some of the settings stick, but video playback does not.
    Some other info about this Encore project:
    From Premiere Pro CS3, I used the "Export to Encore" export option. I selected "Author With Menus", and changed my Encoding Settings to a custom setting of:
    NTSC, 720x480, 29.97 drop frame [fps], Progressive, Quality 5.0
    192 [kbps], 48kHz, 16 bit, Stereo, MPEG
    CBR, 9.00 [Mbps]
    It successfully encoded without error and opened Encore and such.
    Hope I have provided enough info...

    Hey Neil,
    Thanks for replying. When I author DVD's, I use the basic encoding standards you listed above.
    In this case, since the output is not written media, I was encoding in a way that would give me the best possible results (in theory at least) when planning on flv being the final encoded output, where lowest possible file size with best possible quality is the goal (since it's home will be on the web, not a DVD).
    As for my issue with the errors generated from the Export to Flash option, I have learned some things, and was able to successfully Export to Flash.
    One thing is that apparently the Flash encoder that EncoreDVD CS3 uses is not the same as the Adobe Flash CS3 Video Encoder or whatever Flash encoding engine Premiere uses. Encore's Flash output settings are limited, and so are the results.
    What I had to do was export my PP CS3 projects to Flash using Adobe Media Encoder and update the XML that Encore spits out accordingly to point to my newly encoded flv's, replacing the flv's that Encore created... not a big deal, but one extra step and little more waiting time.
    Now, the results are stunning! And since I'm not comfortable in Flash CS3 or coding ActionScript, having Encore create the menu interface, with all the navigation and interactivity and such, for me was a big BIG plus!

  • Error when trying to export to wmv

    i keep getting an error when i try to export my movie to wmv. is anyone else having that problem?

    The flip4mac update doesn't appear to solve the problem exporting from iMovie 08. I have updated both iMovie and the flip4mac exporter plug in and still cannot export from within iMovie - it comes up with said error. I have to export to a *.mov file first, and then open that file in quicktime, then export to *.wmv from within quicktime itself. Perhaps using VisualHub would be cheaper (and faster).
