Render file wrong size when played back thru windows media.

Odd one must be a bug.
I render a project that is 1 hour and 18 minutes.
Upon looking at it in windows explorer it claims it is 56 minutes long. I get same result in windows media player. When I bring this file into PPCC it says it is 1 hr and 18 mins.
Ok. Is someone playin a trick on me here. Or do I have ghosts?
Help. : /

Is it possible that Premiere Pro is interpreting it at a different frame rate thatn Windows is seeing it?
What is the actual frame rate and what does Premiere Pro say it is?

How to render and save a file as windows media file or mp3?

Cannot create Windows Media with PRE 8 - Writer not found

I have recently installed PRE 8 (paid single user) on my Windows 7 dual-core machine, and I have installed the 8.0.1 patch. I can import, edit and render video and audio just fine. I can save files as AVI and MPEG, but whenever I try to save a my movie as a Windows Media file, the rendering progress bar is displayed followed immediately by a pop-up entitled "Export error" with notification "Writer not found." I have reinstalled PRE8, turned of my antivirus, but nothing seems to resolve this problem. I cannot seem to find any remedy on the web. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

As I mentioned above I am running Windows 7 (omitted above: 64 Home Premium Edition). I have all updates installed, and I have verified I have latest device drivers. With regards to QuickTime, I am suffering from the accursed "Error 46: Could not load or fine Quicktime Active X control." So I am running withouy quicktime, but do I really need an Apple product to produce Windows Media?
I have tried to correct the Error 46 problem by using the "Subinacl/Reset" solution desribed in many places (e.g. http://research.gerger.com/?view=lab:en&aID=1006 under "Quicktime Annoyances"), but that solution isn't working for me. I can see that the issue is with registry priviledges -- no one can read the QT registry keys once QT is installed ("Insufficient Priviledge"). I suspect this solution isn't working, because I never installed an account named "administrator" on my machine, and it looks like the reset.cmd script assumes that you have.
I sure hope I don't need Quicktime to produce Windows Media, otherwise, I have spent a lot of money on a tool (PRE 8) that won't serve my needs.

Jerky playback in Source Monitor (vs. Windows Media Player) ...

I am a new user of CS5.5. I've read the FAQ and other posts and understand that my machine is underpowered.
That said, why do my HD clips play smoothly with Windows Media Player or Quicktime, but play jerky in the PP Source Monitor? What is it about PP's source monitor player that causes clips to choke when they can play back smoothly on the same computer using other software? Are there any other workarounds other than a faster machine I can do in the meantime until I upgrade my hardware?
For example, I see the "render entire work area" option under the Sequence menu as noted above - is there any way to do something similar to get PP to (pre) render the clips in the Project Panel for follow up editing in the Source Monitor window?
What about batch encoding to an uncompressed format and then editing the resultant clips? I would be concerned about loss of quality here though. Being new to PP, not even sure this question makes any sense in the first place.
Thanks!

Good news for you...its not designed that way and a great playback experience is possible.
Bad news is...you have to work out why you are not getting it!
(It has nothing to do with Quadro Cards because plenty of users with other cards have no issue either.)
Well, I'm just going by what I've seen in the past few years. When Premiere CS4 came out I had an Intel Quad Core 2.66 Ghz, 8 GB of RAM, Intel motherboard and an Nvidia 7950GT card. Playback was fine in Vegas, skipped frames in Premiere. Then on my current machine, an AMD 1090T 6 cores @3.2 Ghz, G.Skill 16 GB of RAM, a top of the line Gigabyte motherboard, and at first an ATI Radeon 4850HD, same thing, Vegas played fine, Edius much better (but nothing beats Edius in speed), and Premiere CS5 stuttered like crazy. Now, same machine but with an eVGA GTX570 instead of the ATI, Windows 7 x64, fresh install just one day old. Premiere CS6 does the same thing. If it's my machine, I have no idea what could it be, but the fact that it did the same on two different cards on this machine, and that Premiere CS4 used to do the same in a totally different machine, plus the fact that two other NLEs didn't have that issue, tells me Premiere has a problem at displaying video inside the GUI.
Maybe it could be that most people don't see stutter because they leave the playback quality in automatic? I'm sure I don't have any stutter if I do that, but it looks terrible. Some frames look fine, others look like the pixels got drunk and had a night out with crack whores Well, maybe that's an exaggeration, but you get the point.
If anyone has a suggestion I'd be happy to try it. It's not a terrible issue for me, I always edit with the TV set on and that is fed by the Matrox MXO2 Mini with perfect quality.

Blurry/Scanlines where ever there's motion when rendered as Windows Media

Hi,
I'm using PrE 9 and trying to save/share/render my clips as Windows Media -- as it seems to have the best compression without sacrificing video quality too much.
However, no matter what I set the quality settings to, I get motion blur - more like horizontal scan lines where ever there is motion. If there's no motion, quality is fine. It only shows up, when there's motion e.g. hand gestures or head movements produce it and it's quite visible.
If I use the MPEG setting, I get perfect quality. Clearly it's a setting somewhere in the WMV preset. I used the HD 720p 30 preset to export my clip.
Any idea what might be causing these blurry scan lines where there's motion?
P.S. My footage is shot as 1080i using my Canon Vixia HF200 camcorder.
Thanks,
Sam

It's the HD 720p 30 setting. Exactly what oRBIT1975 said.
I rendered the same project as WMV at different settings. If I export it at HD720p, I have this issue. I also rendered it as WMV at 1920 x 1080 and the artifacts were gone.
I captured the footage using my Canon Vixia HF200 at 1920x1080, 24Mbps quality and 30 fps (PF30). So I figured HD720p 30 would be a nice way to downsize the footage. I really want to be able to bring the size down because my videos are for web and don't need the full HD size or the huge file size that comes with it.
One idea is to capture my footage at HD 720 but I'm old school and I always try to keep my footage at highest possible quality because I can't predict what I'll do with them in the future e.g. what if I want to make DVDs out of them. So I really want to keep my "input" files at the highest possible quality I can, given my current equipment.
I do want to get to the bottom of this issue. Looks like lowering the frame size to 1280 x 720 is producing these interlace artifacts because I keep everything else the same. Is there a way to fix this issue and still export WMV's or will I simply have to export them as MPEGs because MPEG at 1280x720 produces nice results.
Thank you all for your help.

Color space, Windows Media 9

Hi,
I´m using AE CS3 and try to render a Windows Media 9 file. But I don´t get the colors right. The blacks are too light and the whites too dark (I´ve checked the file in both VLC and Media Player). I guess it could be a color space issue. In AE I use HDTV (Rec. 709) color space. But not sure if this is the right choice. Have also tried not to use any color space, but that doesn´t help either. Thankful for any advice.
Thanks

Rec 709 as a project setting should not affect output in any way, as it covers the full 0-255 8bit RGB value ranges. They should only get limited when using other profiles and working in other bit-depths.. The only other thing that in my experience might cause color shifts is odd combinations of older Windows Media components with the latest AE. In these cases, the ranges may be misinterpreted. As a last thing, also check hardware acceleration options in your players. Sometimes simply a color otpion introduced by your graphics card can make things go crazy. In any case, I would, as a minor, update Windows Media player to the latest and see, if it helps.

Rendering from AECS5 (Mac) for someone using Windows Media Player 11?

Does anyone know if it's possible, and if so what settings, I could render out of AECS5 on a Mac to a format someone using Window Media Player 11 in Windows XP so they could view the file?
They are unable to install any other software or codecs other than what comes stock with the XP install.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Kristin.

MPEG-2 should work. If you include audio, you will get a .mpg file which WMP should play.
Edit: Sorry, I am wrong about that; they would need to have a DVD decoder pack installed which apparently doesn't come standard.
Here are two links that don't have an answer, but have info about the problem:

AfterEffects CS4 Crash on Output Module Windows Media

After sitting on hold for 2:15:00 yesterday, I have yet to discover humans working support, so I turn to this forum....
I own CS4 Production Premium, on a HP Z800 with XP64, sp2 and 16gb, nvidia quadro fx 3700.
Since installing it several months ago, I have not been able to use the render que in After Effects CS4. When an item is in the render que, selecting the "Output Module", and then selecting the "Format" drop down, as soon as I release the mouse on the "Windows Media" option, AE begins a predictable crash routine.
No matter what the project is, this is the same result.
What is remarkable is the fact that I can run Adobe Media Encoder and render perfectly fine to this format. But this is an awkward middle man, when I'd really like-and should be able to, to encode the project directly from AE, not AME. Premiere also renders perfectly to this format as well. Only AE appears to crash when activating the Format->Windows Media drop down.
I've installed the latest 9.0.2 update. I've installed various WME packages from MS. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the entire suite several times. The last alternative is to surrender the machine to the IT guys to set up a clean installation of XP64 again.
Sure would be lovely if I could speak to a support technician or get some help solving this problem ;-)

Here's a thread that might help:

There appear to be some problems with some Windows Media presets.
Here's a thread about CS3 that seems to indicate the same thing:

BTW, I'm not saying that this is related to this problem, but note that 64-bit Windows XP is not one of the operating systems that we recommend for After Effects. Here is the system requirements page.

Can I export to Windows Media 1080p with same quality as Windows Live Movie Maker?

I am looking to replace Windows Live Movie Maker, because of the following:
it keeps crashing
it has occasional problems with audio sync when I use MTS source files
it has very limited editing features (especially inability to increase audio levels for a clip)
However, I would like to still render to 1080p Windows Media files for archiving. Does anyone know if there are settings I could use in Premiere to export to 1080p and get equivalent quality to WLMM? I have failed to find a combination of settings in Premiere that doesn't mess up the video with horizontal lines during motion. Here is an example:
When I use the 1080p export setting in WLMM, the video comes out looking essentially the same as the original MTS files, like in this snapshot:
However, I have failed to find any settings in Premiere Elements that will give an equivalent result. Below is a snapshot from the Windows Media file I exported from Premiere:
And these are the settings I used:
My Equipment:
Canon Vixia HF200
Windows 7 x64
AMD Phenom II x4 945 3Ghz
4GB RAM
300GB 10K RPM HDD
ATI Radeon 4800 Series
Premiere Elements 8 trial

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the response. I did go back and verify the project setting, and I think I was originally using the wrong project settings. This is what I'm using now for the project:
And then to share, I went to Personal Computer -> WMV, and selected these advanced settings:
Unfortunately, I still see the jagged horizontal lines like the original screenshot I posted. I tried playing with other video export settings (constant bit rate, at 8,000 and 20,000 also), and with variable constrained/unconstrained output. I'm really at a loss for what is going on. I did confirm that it doesn't have the horizontal lines if I encode to MPEG, but the WMV problem persists.

Windows Media FIle

There is not an option to render out as a windows media file in Premiere CS4 on my Mac. Is there a way to do this that I am missing? Please help.

You need a program called Flip4Mac to produce wmv on a Mac. It attachs it self to QT and works very well.

Export a Windows Media File

For some reason, I can only export the first half of my 30 second commercial to a Windows Media file. Odd. I really have no idea why it's doing this. Any suggestions?
AE CS3, working on a MAC
Heck if I'm missing it in the render Q options let me know.

There is technically no need to buy anything than one single Windows licence. No need for AE or other tools. Windows Movie Maker is free, Windows Media Encoder Basic is free and so is VirtualDub and several other tools that can output AVIs in a plethora of CoDecs and WMVs. All you have to do is get an AVI or MOV over to the Windows world... The question however is, how frequently you have to do this and if it is worth spending an afternoon with Bootcamp and a Windows install. You might quite well get happy with Flip4Mac Basic, which is a mere 99 bucks if I recall correctly. Things only get dicy if you need more advanced features of the more expensive Pro version. In addition, there's always the risk of something looking perfect on OSX and the client still ending up with an unusable file if you have no way of checking them on the native OS.

My Window Media Files will not run

This is a strange one, We installed PE4 and have had no issues. Just last week when I render a video as a window media file, there is no outward indication of an issue. When I try to play the file it will not play on Window Media Player. And I have tried to insert the file into Powerpoint and it also fails. I can render the file as a quicktime file with no issue, but this will not insert into a powerpoint presentation. I tried to "repair" the installation and uninstall and reinstall to no avail. Window Media Player files just quit running. When I run old files that were rendered with the program no problem. Is there an issue with a Media Player Upgrade?
Please Help........

gtwalkeriii,
What settings did you choose for the WMV? That could have a lot to do with it not playing. Have you tried to play it in programs like VLC Player? Have you run it though G-Spot (www.headbands.com/gspot) to see what it reports? Often, it will pick up errors in files. While it does a better analysis of MPEG and AVI files, most WMV's will also yield a report.
Good luck,

Mac + Windows Media Center

I currently have both a pc and a new Macbook. On my pc i use Windows Media Center to record tv shows that i've missed. I'm able to network the two computers to view and share files however i can't play the recorded shows on my Mac. I see them in the shared file but its not opening it. It says "Error opening movie". Can anyone please help me? I'd really like to watch my recorded shows from my Mac laptop and not have to be stuck behind my pc. Please Help???
Thanks

You need to export the Media Centre recordings into a format which will be viewable on the Mac.
Taken from the Media Portal Forums
Here is a quick guide to strip off the ASF wrapper MS use for their DVR-MS file format. This is used in MediaPortal for recording with MPEG-2 capture cards like the Hauppauge PVR-250 / 350 models.
What you need to have...
1. Graphedit http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/downloads/graphedit.html
2. Cyberlink DirectShow filters MPGMUX.AX & CLDUMP.AX (You'll have to find these)
What you need to do...
1. If not done already register the two filters listed above from the directory where they have been installed.
regsvr32.exe MPGMUX.AX
regsvr32.exe CLDUMP.AX
2. Start Graphedit and the click 'File' then 'Render Media File'
3. Choose the *.DVR-MS file you wish to make into a *.MPG equivalent.
This will automatically build a Graph ultimately providing an output to the Video Renderer and Default DirectSound Device.
4. Remove all filters except the *.DVR-MS output box.
5. Click on 'Graph' then 'Insert Filters' within Graph Edit.
6. Go to the 'Direct Show Filters' section and add 'Cyberlink MPEG Muxer' (MPGMUX.AX) to the Graph.
7. Now add the 'Cyberlink Dump Filter' (CLDUMP.AX) to the Graph and it will prompt for a filename give it a name with a .MPG extension. i.e. Test.mpg.
8. Leave the Filter addition window and connect the DVR Out-1 connector to Audio In on the 'Cyberlink MPEG Muxer' on the Graph.
9. Also connect the DVR Out-2 connector to Video In on the 'Cyberlink MPEG Muxer'
10. Next connect the Output pin from the 'Cyberlink MPEG Muxer' to the 'Cyberlink Dump Filter'
11. You are now ready to get your MPG equivalent file click on 'Graph' and then 'Play' (or click the green play button)
12. You'll notice a green progress indicator moving from left to right. Once complete you will have successfully dumped your MPG file in the same quality it was recorded without re-encoding!!!
Note: The MPG file should be slightly smaller the the original. Don't worry if they are not exactly the same size as we have stripped off the ASF guff.
You can do what you want with the MPEG file. i.e. Convert to AVI, Deinterlace it, Crop It, Resize it, Burn it to DVD/SVCD...etc etc
It worked fine with the two files I tried, but I then ran out of time to try doing something with the resulting MPG files. As I was using RDC to connect into the Media Centre, even playing them wouldn't work as expected. I did try VirtualDub but it didn't like the mpg file, but I am not sure if this was a RDC issue or an issue with the mpg files.

Windows Media export has horizontal lines

Hello,
I am exporting a video with basketball footage in it and am trying to do a windows media export. Unfortunately, no matter what i do to the settings, I get these horizontal lines in the video when there's a lot of action/movement. Any idea what this might be and how it could be fixed?
Thanks
Paul

Depending on the encoder you are using, you can create interlaced WMVs.
Deinterlace the movie before you pring it into your encoder. You cna export a reference movie or nest the sequence and apply a deinterlace to the nest. Render, export self contained.
