OMF Export Issue

Need help exporting an OMF to include the media inside the file (rather than referring to it) For some reason, the resulting exported files are simply shells, meaning they do not contain the media inside the file itself. The file sizes should be much larger.
Any thoughts?

If I choose Encapsulate in the settings, the audio is included in the OMF, which get's extracted when opening.

Multitrack OMF Export Issue - CS6

Hello All,
Does CS6 not like exporting an OMF when I have a multitrack audio file? It hangs during OMF export (separate files) and never finishes.
If that is the case, what is the purpose of the multitrack audio file.
ex: I have one stereo track, and one multitrack on the timeline.
Thanks!

Hey TacoRye,
I posted about this like a month ago and got no response. It has made my life hell on this job I'm doing. What happens is when you make the OMF PP is taking the entire audio track that is attached to every clip in your video instead of pairing it down with handles so the OMF is huge. Apparently OMF's can't be over 2 gigs with media embedded. The only work around is to render and replace but then your audio engineer doesn't have handles. (You'd think they'd at least give you handle options on render and replace.) I never ever would have started this edit of 10 different videos using the multi track functions in premiere as they obviously haven't thought through the work flow. You can't even match your audio back to original source to try and replace just the audio portions of clips in your timeline. Absolutely pathetic.

OMF Export issue in Premiere CS6

Hello,
I am trying to export a feature length OMF file for my sound mixer. I have the tracks I want on and selected. I then do File - Export - OMF. I do encapsulated audio, with 60 frame handles. I then start the export. I encodes through the files then it starts "generating metadata" and making its "First Pass Parsing Tracks", but it will immediatly jump to about 1/3 of the way through and just sit there. I have left it for about 3 hours and it still sits there. I have tried saving to various folders/hard drives and still no luck. I have seen people having problems with the omf working with other programs, but I haven't seen many people with this problem. Deadline is fast approaching and I desperately need to get this out to my sound mixer. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

Hi Anthony,
I'm using Premier Pro 6 from the creative cloud, and am also doing a feature length doc. I'm having issues exporting an OMF and it originally came from FCP 7. I'm wondering if you've had any other reflections on the issues mentioned above and if you can offer any more insight? I'm pretty sure I don't have any filter applied anywhere as I had only exported it from FCP 7 when I was in the logging phase.
Someone else mentioned using Audition. Send the whole sequence to Audition and export an OMF from there. Have you tried to send your feature length doc sequence to Audition and has it been succesfull?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ryan

Syncing Audio with Merge Clips option and OMF export question/issue

Hi,
In the past when I've edited video, when it came to syncing audio I always did it manually. This time, using Premiere Pro CC, I used the merge clips option, to speed up the syncing audio process, which was a huge time saver with excellent results.
The question/issue I have..is that when I get my OMF exported for my sound editor, will this screw anything up, since on the project file, it doesn't use the original audio file, but the one that was merged. And in the project list, I don't even need to have the original audio file listed, since it's already been merged into a clip, which I used in the project. I know it's the same file used, but will it mess anything up since a merged clip audio was used instead of just dragging the original track onto the timeline?
- Ken

A good way to know for sure (and therefore feel comfortable that you're doing the right thing) is to do a test OMF export, then open this in Audition. This ill show you exactly what you're exporting.

'OMF export failed due to internal error' message

Hi,
Has anyone ever got an 'OMF export failed due to internal error' message when trying to export in OMF format?
I get that every time I try to export in that format.
How can I make it work?
Thanks and best,

Premiere CC to ProTools OMF/XML issues

XML and OMF audio timecode does not relink properly in external applications with my current Premiere CC / Mavericks configuration. Reverting to CS6 solves the issue described below...cannot say with certainty if previous CC versions solve the issue.
Exporting OMF's to our sound engineer do not relink properly in ProTools - I've tried every available method for OMF export (encapsulated, referenced, etc).
Exporting XMLs have a related issue - if an XML export is brought into another application (e.g. FCP 7) The audio region is correct but audio is not synced properly...it is pulling from incorrect timecode. This is externally recorded audio, recorded separately from source video. Video tracks are correctly synced.
I can get accurate XML's out of Audition. Reverting to CS6 via XML and exporting OMF from there is my current workaround.
Mac OSX 10.9.2
Premiere CC 7.2.2

Hi Andy,
Sorry this isn't working for you.
Can you export a much simpler version of your sequence?
Can you try exporting only with mono tracks?
Are there any nested sequences in the sequences?
For file export, did you choose "encapsulate?"
Are all the clips the same sample rate?
Does the sample rate of the clips match sequence settings?
Audition should work. If you have changed any of the above, please try another export from Audition.
Thanks,
Kevin

OMF export failed due to internal error

I get this error message whatever I do when I try to export as OMF:
"OMF export failed due to internal error"
I tried OMF 1 and 2.
I tried to uncheck "include audio".
I tried an extremely small project (one region, one track).
Always the same error. Problem is there's absolutely no information on what kind of internal error this is.
All other export options (AFF, Open TL and Final Cut) works.
Any ideas?

I suppose that beside CCM 4.1(2) you are using AC 1.4 (1), if yes, then you need to upgrade to AC 1.4 (1) ES11 or upgrade at least to CCM 4.1(3)ES42 or CCM 4.1(3) sr3c

Bizzare export issue

Here is a very weird export issue. Windows XP.
Project is set at h264 1920x1080 mono audio 29.97 fps
I have 30 shots that make up the sequence. Each shot is exactly 90 frames. I exported each sequence at h264 1920x1080 with one channel of audio. The first shot exports just fine and is 5 MB. The second shot exports at 10 MB. The third is 15 MB, the tenth shot is 50MB. But the picture is still 90 frames for each shot. BUT, when I export without audio each exported file is just 5 MB. If I look at the properties of each clip the duration of the video and audio is just 90 frames. If I open one of these clips in QuickTime Pro and re-export it as source then the files size goes back to 5 MB; same video, same audio yet with the correct file size.
Anyone seen this before?
Is there a setting that could be incorrect?

Weird, man. Not sure what might cause that.

Crystal JRC PDF Export Issue

We are experiencing a PDF export issue with Crystal JRC version 12.2.202. The PDF report shows 1 of 3 pages but ONLY the first page is generated. When this occurs, ALL other users that are exporting to PDF experience the same issue with any multiple page report. I can't find any errors in the log that would indicate what the problem is. To resolve the issue, I have to recycle the WebLogic application server that hosts the JRC, which would indicate something gets "locked" in memory and gets cleared when the app server is bounced.
Any ideas on how to resolve this ?

Hi Ted,
Thanks for the response!
Though, the mentioned Sun JVM Bug explains the root-cause, the Bug status also state that it is not fixed yet.
Also, we are reluctant to change the JVM Option to -Xint due to unknown impacts on JVM optimizations.
Is there a patch released for CrystalReports to deal with this behavior? We are using CRJ runtime 11.5.7.620 and seeking for a patch on this version.
Thanks.

PP CS5.5 FLV To MP4 Export Issues / Problems

I just upgraded from Production Premium CS5 to CS5.5. I do a fair amount of converting/exporting of imported FLV files (downloaded from internet news sites) to H.264/AAC w/ MP4 wrappers using Premiere Pro (PP) and Adobe Media Encoder (AME). My equipment is a 1+ yr. old HP Win 7 Pro w/ an Intel i970 Quadcore, 12 Gb RAM and MSI nVidia GTX 470 GPU. I have never experienced any queue or export issues w/ CS5 (at least that I noticed), but I am experiencing noticeably degraded queue export and direct export problems with these files in CS5.5.
Description: (1) The queue export times for the exact same imported FLV clip(s) using the exact same sequence settings and H.264/MP4 export settings are noticeably slower in CS5.5 (sometimes 2x, depending on the export settings, e.g. using maximum render quality) than in CS5; (2) My MSI Afterburner GPU monitoring software indicates 5-10% GPU usage during queue/export in CS5, while indicating 0% GPU usage (flatline) in CS5.5; and (3) When I attempt to direct export these files using CS5.5 I get the following error message: "The source and output audio channels are not compatible or a conversion does not exist."
I suspect that it may have something to do with "conforming" anomalies when the FLV file is imported into PP, but I would put that squarely in the category of rank speculation on my part.
Has anyone experienced the same or similar problems or have any insight into what may be the problem(s)? Of course, thanks for any help/insight you can provide.
Jim

What do you mean by a better routine?
A better compression routine than H.264.
Is the quality better than H.264?
Yes.
Does this use an MOV wrapper?
Yes.
Also, would it import correctly into PPro?
Yes.
we would import files into PPro exported out of FCP and would get a red pixelated glitch during preview and export. Does this codec solve this problem as well if it is an MOV wrapper?
I don't know anything about FCP.
Sorry for all the questions, just want to get things right before diving into a new codec.
It's harmless, and free.
Download it and run some tests.

Simple flash export issue

hello
I'm trying to export a flash video using Adobe media encoder from Premier Pro, but when I do I get this error " there are no clips to build".
I have another file that I am able to export and it does not have this problem.
They are Windows Media files and play in Premier fine. I am using Premier Pro CS3.
Lastly, I'm not a video expert but I really need to get these up on the web for work, there is a lot of pressure and I need to get it done.
Regards,
Tom

fixed the exporting issue.

OMF Export Hangs

I imported a FCP XML project and it seems to be just fine. But now I'd like to export my project to OMF to go to Pro Tools. The export process hangs (so does AAF)...any idea what could be causing this??? I have even tried to cut everything from the sequence and just have two audio clips, and it still hangs.
Other OMF exports from projects I have started in Premiere CS5 seem to go smoothly.
On PC, Win 7 64, CS5 v 5.02

I have had the same and other problems with OMF export ... I wish Adobe would get this working or provide better documentation on the problems. I also wish they would add a way to export CS5 audio tracks to their excellent application Audition 3 which I would rather use than Pro Tools anyway!
I have found that deselecting all the video tracks (no eyeballs) helps sometimes. The OMF export chokes on time remapping, nested sequences and other of PPro's cool features. I have also had problems with audio in the timeline which was inserted as "subclips" from the bin - the exporter can't find the audio file.
Hope this helps, I haven't really solved the problem either.

Exporting ISSUES! Help

I am a relatively new user to lightroom. I haven't had any exporting issues until today. I am attempting to export a photo/photos to a specific folder with a custom name. When I do this it exports the WHOLE library and NOT the edited photo. What am I doing wrong??

Lightroom usually exports all images that are highlighted. If you only want to export one image then make sure it is the only image that is highlighted.

Audition 5.0.1 crash on OMF export

I'm getting a crash everytime I try to export an OMF from Audition 5.0.1 ( and also from 5.0.0 )
I'm on a mac 10.7.3 any clues, anyone else seeing this?

Hi Durin
Actually no it wasn't working on 5.0 either, I tried installing the update patch in the hope it would fix it. Thanks for all your help with this.

Exporting issues after 4.2 upgrade

Has anyone else experienced exporting issues after installing the 4.2 upgrade? It used to be a breeze but now I keep getting the message that a destination folder has not been specified even though I've done that. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Are you using an Export preset, or setting the Export up manually each time?
