Newbie CS6 Trying to export Quicktime h.264

I am new at exporting. When I use the h264 format and it's maximum quality it's a 55 MB file.
When I use the customized Quicktime and then h264, my file is only maxed at 8MB.
I'm trying to figure out how to maximize the size of this :30 commercial for air.
All help is great appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Yes. Quicktime, at h264.
I was able to manage 89MB file using all of the best quality improvement enhancements I could figure out.
They tell me though their typicall :30 commercial at quicktime h264 is usually about 250MB

Can't export Quicktime H.264 from AE CS4

Whenever I try to set the export module to Quicktime H.264 I immediately get the error/message, "For reliable output with H.264 compression, please choose it directly from the Output Module Format menu instead of via Quicktime."
If you try ro render, you only get an error and there is no render.
What could be going wrong? Is a plugin not working? The only thing I can think of is I updated to Quicktime 7.6 a few days ago. Anyone else experienced this problem?

I'm encoding at 640x360. I usually use profile level 4.1, but this is only going to be directed towards software not hardware. There are work arounds to this, lots of them. Like encoding using Quicktime Animation codec and then re-encoding to Quicktime H.264 out of PP CS4, Sorenson Squeeze, or even Quicktime itself. All will work well. But the thing is that a person shouldn't have to go through a two-step work around like this. You want to maintain quality but Animation files are relatively huge. (By the way, its funny how PP CS4 has no problem exporting QT H.264).
How would I use Adobe Media encoder directly? Just drop the project from AE into the queue?

Trying to export QuickTime but only the first 30 seconds exports

I'm trying to export my 3 minute long project using QuickTime conversion but only the first 30 seconds of the sequence exports. How do I get the full video to export?

If you're trying to export it to WMA or WMV, you need to purchase a version of Flip4Mac which includes that capability. QuickTime cannot create files in those formats without third-party software which provides the necessary engine; even though it appears that QuickTime is doing the conversion, it's not.

Trying to Export - Quicktime to DPX - in Linear (R709) Color space NOT LOG

Hello,
I am trying to export an image sequence through compressor from a Linear (R709) color space. When I try to do the dpx image sequence output it changes the files to LOG.
Is there a way to pass the material through without any color space changes?
Thank-you,
Carl

FYI, In the Inspector, and filtes, COLOR tab> Output Color Space: Default for Encoder (CAN NOT BE CHANGED - It is greyed out)

Premiere pro CS6.0.3 keeps crashing when exporting to H.264

Good day everyone,
I am trying to export my timeline using some of the H.264 setting and it keeps crashing on me. Not all of the H.264 like the Apple and Android settings. Those work fine. But trying to export to H.264 Youtube (any presets), H.264 HD 1080I 29.97 and HD 1080P 29.97 it will process to around 80%-95% than crash. It gives me an error message than gives me three files that can help with finding the problem.
I have tried to export using Premiere and also AME. They both crash at the same point.
I have tried creating new projects, new sequences and such. No luck.
Currently I am using Premiere Pro CS6.03, Adobe Media Encoder CS 6.03 as well. Windows 7 64bit, Intel Core [email protected] with 8GB ram. My video card is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670. Any advice would be most helpful and appreciated.
Thanks

I solved what might be a similar problem last evening by lowering the speed of my i7-3055K (nominal 3.9GHz) to 4.2GHz from 4.5GHz.
My symptoms were similar: new PC build (10 days old); crashing or blue screens about 1 minute into a 3 minute Premiere export or AME render, Win7 Pro. The system had previously been very stable. At first I suspected an H264 codec problem or an iTunes/Quicktime incompatibility but when an AVI render using the NTSC DV Widescreen preset crashed it broadened my search for solutions. Mercury GPU render on/off did not fix the crash problem.
The render last evening was probably the first time that my new CPU was seriously stressed. Lowering the CPU speed was the quick solution. Overclocking sites/forums probably have tips on stress tests, memory tests, voltage tweaking, etc but as long as the system is stable I'll probably be satisified with the slower CPU solution.
The CPU cooling is the Intel stock fan. 32GB of Corsair memory is running at its rated PC1600. CPU and memory voltages are the defaults, i.e., no tweaking. Intel DZ77RE-75K motherboard. EVGA GTX680 FTW+ 4GB at its defaults, i.e., no overclocking/tweaking. 1000 watt power supply , which is probably overkill but it's what I had lying around (I have an almost identical setup (GTX460 rather than GTX680) which runs fine at 4.2GHz with a 700-watt PSU -- but I've never stressed that 2nd PC with an Premiere/AE/AME render).

Export Quicktime from a DVC Pro HD 720p60 Project

I've read the discussions and am still looking for some solid answers on this and /or confirmation that I've done it correctly.
I'm working in a DVC Pro HD 720p60 project
Sequence setting frame size is 960x720
(no I don't know what it was shot on)
The cuts are :30 spots and I'm looking to do 2 things for my producer.
1) export the spots so that he can compress them as desired for his reel on his website, for which I've done the following:
File - Export - Quicktime Conversion - Settings, H.264, size 1920x1080
Is this the best way to do this?
2) export the spots so that he can add them to his reel when he wants to on dvd, for which I've done the following:
I created a new DV50 project and cut the spots into them.
File - Export - Quicktime Movie - Current Settings
I also tried:
File - Export - Quicktime Conversion - Settings, H.264
The strange thing was that the H.264 on this looked better than the quicktime movie.
Any thoughts? Much appreciated!

Well, if you need to get it to the web guy to compress as he sees fit, then you will need to provide him with...well, what he wants. You need to ask him (her) what they want you to give to them.
And the dimensions would be 1280x720. 960x720 is squeezed anamorphically. and going to 1920x1080 is makig it bigger than the original.
As for the H.264 for DVD. Compressing it like that, then compressing again for DVD...icky. It looks better? Well then, maybe it darkened or brightened the footage as it compressed it. You might consider color correcting your main footage if you like that look.
And you weren't in a DV or DVCPRO 50 project, you were in a DVCPRO HD project. Why cut it in a one of those settings? it won't look any better, in fact, it will look worse. And compressing it for DVD ro the web wouldn't be any easier. Sorry, I guess I don't understand your reasoning here.
DV 50 isn't what it was shot nor edited at. It is DVCPRO HD...DVCPRO 100. Export self contained using sequence settings and it is EXACTLY the same quality as the original footage in the timeline.

Block noise in CC2014 Adobe Media Encoder Quicktime H.264 Export

I would love some input from the community here. Perhaps someone else is having a similar issue.
I've been wanting to make a full switch from CS6 to CC2014, but I am experiencing a host of issues that I don't experience in CS6. For one, when I export my Canon 5DMK3 DSLR timeline using Quicktime (H.264), I get an abrasive global noise all over my rendered video as if I was using a low data rate. I use the same settings in CS6 and experience no issues.
Since YouTube compression hides these artifacts, so please download and view original file: Dropbox - RenderArtifactsQuicktimeH264.mp4
Format: Quicktime
Video Codec: H.264
Quality: 100
23.976fps
progressive
Use Max Render Quality
Render at Maximum Depth
10,000 kbps
What I've tried:
1) exporting at 720p and 1080p
2) another codec (H.264 mp4 exports are clean)
3) all combinations of the "Use Max Render Quality" and "Render at Maximum Depth" settings
4) exporting straight from Premiere
5) rendering with and without effects (Magic Bullet Looks, sharpening)
6) GPU (CUDA) enabled and software only (on project and on Adobe Media Encoder)
Custom Desktop Specs:
Intel i7-3960X @ 3.3GHz
32GB RAM
GTX 780 Ti 3GB (and tested Adobe certified regular GTX 780 3GB)
GPU Driver: 340.52 (up to date)
Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
SSD OS drive
WEstern Digital 2TB data drive
SSD adobe cache drive
I'm at a complete loss. What else could be contributing to this?

Hi Mark,
I did install the CC 2014.0.1 update and the issue remained. I had a colleague tell me that he experiences the same issue for Format= Quicktime, Codec= h.264 when he has the "limit data rate" option checked with a value. When I unchecked the limit data rate (of my standard 10,000 kbps 720p preset) I got a clean render devoid of the previously mentioned artifacts. However, it defaulted to a 70,000 kbps data rate which of course is higher than I'd like/need. For now I guess I'll be exporting .mp4 h.264, but I'm still curious why the limit data rate doesn't behave like it did in CS6.

Media Encoder CC2014.2 crash on windows when trying to export when quicktime is installed

Hi,
I'm trying to export .mov files (created on random Mac computers in very hi-res) to reduce file size, and have the same output format. (possibly 1080p H.264-> .mp4)
I installed Media Encoder cc2014.2 on my pc (win7, 64bits, french).
When I first tested, Only the audio was being exported. But I soon realized I didn't had the proper codec installed on my PC.
(I wasn't able to play the original video file, only the audio was playing).
So, like a good boy I installed Apple Quicktime (7.76.80.95)
With quicktime on my PC I was able to play the original video file. (with quicktime player)
So I opened Media Encoder again, and on the preview this time I can see the video with the sound. But as soon as I start the coding (the little green arrow) Adobe Media Encoder crash.
I have tried multiple output format, it always crash right when I start exporting the file.
I uninstalled Quicktime, and media encoder is working again ... but my original files (.mov) can't be exported with video, only the sound.
I have tried a third party codec (K-Lite), I can see the video+sound on my pc, but Media Encoder is still blind, no video, only the sound.
Is there a way to add codec to Media encoder without having to install Quicktime?
Or a way to make Media Encoder work on my PC when Quicktime is installed?
btw I'm sorry if my text is a bit confusing, I'm french speaking
Thank's in advance!

The Error is back!!!
Yesterday it worked today it crashes when I export from premiere via media encoder. I tried it with all the things you told me:
1. Bars+Tone => export => crash
2. Video Project with 2 short h264-files => export => crash
3. Software only renderer => crash
These are the two logs that I found:

Export quicktime movie from Flash CS6 hangs

I am trying to export a very short flash animation as a quicktime video from Flash CS6 but when the "Recording Flash Content" progress bar gets to the end nothing happens. I am able to click cancel and the x but nothing has been created for me.
If I wait long enough I get the error message "The export operation failed because it ran out of memmory" How can I fix this?

Hi Tomlijagogo,
Can you try the solutions in this post? Flash CS6, QuickTime: The export operation failed because it ran out of memory.
Thanks,

Not able to export quicktime movie from Flash CS5 or CS6.

Hi! I am not able to export quicktime movie from Flash CS5 or CS6. When I export it the progress bar is showing and says Recording Flash content and nothing happens

I havent exported any videos in the past from Flash. The movie is around 45 seconds and the size is 470KB.
I tried both, the memory and the hard drive.
In the attached image you can see the settings and in the other image you can see the progress bar that remains without something to happen.
I dont mind what type of video to export it can be also .avi but again I have troubles there. It is very large and the animation is distorted.
The animation consist from two scenes. The first one can be exported without any problem but the second one cannot be exported. May be because it has some masks layers and guide layers?

AME fails to export as Quicktime H.264 each time

Hello all,
I'm having a problem.
I'm trying to export a project out of Premiere CS4, as Quicktime H.264.
Every single time that I try to export it, it seems to go though 99% of the process smoothly, yet on the last few seconds AME just stops and refuses to complete it (and can stand like that for hours). When I try to cancel the process AME freezes completely and force quitting it is the only solution.
I tried searching the forums but I couldn't find anything like this. Is there anything that I'm missing/doing wrong? A known issue? etc.
Using OS X 10.5.5 with all updates. Premiere/AME CS4 with all updates also installed.

Please provide
these details to help us help you.
Cheers

HT3130 trying to export a 4 minute video to desktop. Only 1:08 seconds exports. I've tried other clips and they all cut at 1:08. Used different exports like Quicktime with the same results.

Good to hear that you've had some success with the import.
I tried 3 times to do it before I finally changed it to H.264, and it worked on the first try. The quality of the compression was terrible with those settings compared to my standard settings, but I'm just glad it worked.
Rather than Share>Export using QuickTime and then choosing your own settings for H.264, you may get a better result if you simply use the Share>Export Movie option. Alternatively, use the Share>Media Browser option (as I mentioned in my earlier post). You will be presented with a range of sizes to choose from. Depending on your target, it's usually best to select the highest size available, such as Large, HD 720p or HD 1080p. However, for producing a DVD it's best to not go beyond the HD 720p size, as the DVD will be downscaled during encoding to Standard Definition in the appropriate size for either PAL or NTSC.
In my experience, both these options (Export Movie or Media Browser) produce a video file of excellent quality. The files will be in H.264 format and will have the file extension .mov or .m4v depending on the size of the export. I'm assuming that your camera records HD video in AVCHD format.
These files work well with iDVD (or other DVD authoring programs). The export process for the presets is optimised by Apple to produce high quality video files at a reasonable file size. So, selecting a preset may give you a much better result. Choosing your own H.264 settings when using the "Export using QuickTime" method could be why "the compression was terrible". You may have selected a data (bit) rate that was too low. There is always a trade-off between quality and file size when compressing video.
So, to summarise, try one of the Apple presets using either Share>Export Movie or Share>Media Browser.

Premiere Pro CS6 crashing when trying to export

Trying to export a video in PP CS6 and keep getting this error:
"Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project."
This happens no matter if I try to export AppleProRes or H264 or whatever)
I'm working on a new MacBook Pro running OS X 10.9.5
Processor- 2.5 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory- 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3
I've tried everything you normally do like: restart - reinstall software - creating new project - trying different material - ....
AND: I also checked Video Rendering and Playback (Mercury Playback Engine) : It's set to "Software Only" and greyed out.
Any help is greatly appreciated! I have to finish that #### movie until tomorrow :-(
THANK YOU!

Sorry - forgot some details:
Premiere Pro Version: 6.0.5
Software is installed on a brand new computer. On the old one it ran without problems, on the new one I can work with Premiere without problems but I cannot export anything.

Hi. I'm using illustrator cs6 on pc. I've made a scientific figure for a paper and now I'm trying to export as a png or save for microsoft office. Despite my figure being in the middle of my artboard, it always comes out bottom left in the png file or jpg

Hi. I'm using illustrator cs6 on pc. I've made a scientific figure for a paper and now I'm trying to export as a png or save for microsoft office. Despite my figure being in the middle of my artboard, it always comes out bottom left in the png file or jpg. Must be making a school boy error! Please help!

In similar cases, my solution is to "select all" then "deselect" only the artwork I want to keep and "delete". If I'm curious I may "cut" then "paste" to see what shows up in the center of the screen. it is usually some stray point. or other element out direct sight.

Quicktime Crashes on export to h.264 on xp

I am trying to export a 2 min movie to h.264 in QT. I get a far as the movie Settings for Movie to Quick Time Movie and when ever i click on the Setting button QT shuts down. It will not let me change the settings, I've updated my machines drivers and still unable. I was wondering if it was because the registration code I have is one that I purchased 2 - 3 versions ago. Could that be it??

I am having the SAME problem. Two different new Dell Lattitude laptops (630 & 830), with XP pro. Newest version of QT and 6.4, both do the same thing, crash whenever the "settings" button is clicked when exporting. Two attempts with factory installed XP and two with new XP install from official MS disc.
Closest info I got was last night on QT 7.xx "Buffer Overrun", crash.
Both Dell laptops have stock nVidia video hardware.
Same software installs work fine on an IBM T-30 laptop, Dell desktop and a Toshiba laptop.
???????? help?
