Pre-render (preview) acts crazy and crashes Premiere - QT Bug?

I have a MacBook Pro 17", 2GB RAM, 2.4 GhZ dual core
Looks like some sort of QT Bug:
I have set my sequence preview settings to render with QT Animation codec. When I preview the sequence, it gets stuck at a specific location on a timeline when it reaches a still image. Then I try to cancel the render, but instead it crashes Premiere. Funny thing, that putting the image at some other location on timeline renders perfect. I have tried everything - I've changed the image to another one - same thing. I've deleted all the preview files - nothing changed. Then I've tried to change the codec in the Sequence Preview Settings and I found out, that when it's on DV-PAL, or I-Frame Only, it renders just fine!!! So I suppose that it's some sort of a bug that is in QT native codec probably... (it only happens to a still image on a specific location on timeline)

As a test, try nesting the problem sequence in a new empty sequence then export that new sequence using QuickTime. Let us know whether or not that succeeds.
Cheers

  • Pre-render previews ?

    Is there a way i can set all the videos in my library to pre-render at a lower quality. I use a 2009 mac book pro and it really struggles to play the 1080p 60fps on the fly. But when i render the previews it works fine. Is there a way to have them all rendered and stored so i can use them for viewing instead of using the orginal feed ?
    Thankyou for the help!
    Kieran

    Press Enter instead of the Space Bar and the bar above your timeline will turn green after the render.

  • 2010 Mac Pro began acting crazy: FCPX crashes, and now Fan comes on super loud.

    Yesterday I was brining in (importing) 1080p24 HD from my Canon 5DmkII CF card via rocketfish card reader, and everything was going well as per normal, and then very quickly, both my monitors went blue and it almost looked like it was back on-line within less than a second, except FCPX was closed, and then Canon Utility for reading my card opened as though I had just inserted my CF card.
    It was really weird and kind of scary - especially the speed of how quickly all this happened.  Some of you guys know me, but in short, I've been editing in FCP since it was introduced, and I will list all the improtant details below - but please check this out:
    This evening, I booted up my Mac Pro and it started with a new twist; the fan(s) came on like a turbine - louder than ever before, as though it was hotwired to 240 volts!  Just the noise of the fan freaked me out and I botted down right away.  Does anybody out there know what might be going on?
    MacPro 5,1 (late 2010)
    2.8 GHz Quad Core
    OSX 10.6.8
    FCPX 10.0.6 (haven't downloaded the most recent update yet)
    Please help if you are familliar with any of the issues listed above!  Thanks, Stephen

    so funny how after all these years working on mac's etc., even if we don't know what's up - it just feels better to know someobdy out there (hello.... hello....) hears me - feels my pain.  Yup - first round with my dear first personal Mac Pro was a crazy process of diagnostics and multiple phone calls and the case number and the system scan and upload results - but really nobody knew what was wrong!
    I was stunned when they dispatched a guy in a van (complete with ladder) all the way out to Summit County from Denver and he comes upstairs to my "studio" and basically tears my Mac Pro down to the shell, replaces the entire motherboard, reassembles it and gives me a new SN!  Seriously - I was almost in shock...
    "Where did that motherboard come from?  Is it new???  Does this guy know what he's doing???  "Can you just lay all these parts on my carpet like that???  I was pretty nervous.
    Anyway - yeah, I feel awful that my fan is maxed out again, but yet I'm doing another AE render anyways.  I figure it can't hurt that it's screaming - it's definately not gonna get hot!  BUT  good suggestion to check the sensor readings!  I downloaded smcfancontrol 2.4 and it only had minimums in the custom settings and I didn't see where I could set limits for maximum speeds - really seems like there is no controlling this!

  • The 'Replace with clip from Bin' command doesnt work... or freezes and crashes Premiere

    I'm not exactly sure where I should begin on this issue... re-install?
    Thx,
    David

    Yes, of course.    And even if I hadn't, that wouldn't explain Premiere freezing
    or crashing.    Let me ask this.    Is there a maximum amount of clips or some kind of RAM use tipping point where Premiere just can't handle anymore references?    That is the only thing I can think of that would possibly cause this sudden glitch or some kind of coding error, like the 'replace with clip from bin' command can only handle 'x' file references somehow...  I have about 300 AVCHD clips and 200 HD .mov files in the project panel.    What do you think?

  • .mxf files not importing and crashing premiere

    Hello folks
    I am editing an event project for a college class. We used three HVX and recorded onto P2 cards. We used about 8 p2 cards total.
    Several of the files and entire folder of the video .mxf files will not import into premiere. I get a box stating it is importing them, but the program will state that it is not responding several moments later and I have to force close the entire project.
    I have played these .mxf files on VLC player and they play, so I am unsure of how to get adobe premiere cs6 to accept these files without crashing if I can at all.
    Thank you,
    James

    I am editing on a school PC (a dell) and it is using windows 7.
    It is Adobe Premiere Cs6 I am not aware of any updates that have been updating (ex. patches) or what the internal parts are on the computer.
    The video files are in MXF format.
    I do not believe the proram is running any thrid party effects or codecs.
    A handful of the MXF files will not import into premiere, but instead crash the system.

    Disconnect all other hardware and test one at a time to see if one of them is responsible.
    Next run through this list of fixes, I would try the #3 Hardware Test, write anything down it says and take it into Apple for repair.
    ..Step by Step to fix your Mac
    Next I would run through the list, the #8 Reinstall Just OS X will give you a new copy over itself and may fix your corruption problem in OS X if one exists.
    If the crash occurs only when you run certain software or connect a device, consider that a possible cause and look for updates or reinstall or uninstall via the developers  procedures.
    If that doesn't solve the issue, take the machine to Apple as it might be one of those models that is having issues, but doesn't show up in Hardware Test.

  • ProRes files act crazy and transcoding to Animation codec gets ugly

    So, allegedly, the Animation codec is lossless. However, when I take something encoded with Apple ProRes 422 HQ and transcode to Animation within the Quicktime Pro software, I see noticeable differences. Including: color change and increased aliasing.
    The same is true when attempting to export stills from ProRes, even in the highest, most lossless formats. I am wondering if ProRes for PC is actually not quite ready for prime time? When I import a ProRes file into After Effects, I notice the same quality drop associated with trying to transcode it to a lossless format. It seems as though ONLY QT Pro has the capability to display ProRes files properly. If this is the case, this is largely useless, since I can't then USE these ProRes files for anything. What the heck guys? I wouldn't have had clients deliver me ProRes encoded stuff if I knew that it didn't actually maintain its integrity.
    Please help out as soon as possible. Clients with deadlines are waiting on a solution that doesn't involve me spending 4000 grand on a new machine and FCP.

    As a test, try nesting the problem sequence in a new empty sequence then export that new sequence using QuickTime. Let us know whether or not that succeeds.
    Cheers

  • How do I pre-render only portions of the timeline or selected clips?

    I'm switching from Vegas Pro to Premiere Pro. In Vegas, you select a portion of the timeline, then hit control-B and it pre-renders that segment.
    In Premiere, you hit enter, but it doesn't pay attention to the selected clips, it just pre-renders the entire sequence.
    This wouldn't be such a big problem except I'm managing projects that are fairly long, with 20-30 sequences and 20 or so nested sequences in each project and I'm switching between around 18 different projects for a series of 23 or so videos.
    These vids are already taxing my system resources with only a few minutes or so (referencing about 80-120gb of source footage), but my office comp is kinda weak.
    The problem is that when I pre-render a nested sequence and bring it back to the main timeline, I have to pre-render it *again* after making the next set of adjustments (ie color correction, transitions etc). Then I have to do it AGAIN when I copy it to another timeline for another similar project.
    Every time, it can take as long as 15 or 20 minutes (my video card is an nVidia GTX 560 Ti, it has CUDA, but prem doesn't support it for some reason).
    When my main timeline glitched out, forcing me to split into different projects, it took me almost 4 hours just to copy things into place with the additional 20 minutes to load the glitched file.
    Then I had to go and pre-render everything again to work my edits back into place.
    Even when everything is 90% correctly laid out, I still have to wait for the entire sequence to finish pre-rendering.
    As above, in Vegas Pro, I just select a portion of the timeline and the pre-render sticks to that area.
    I saw an article that said you could create in and out points and use that for rendering, but it doesn't seem to be a CS6 thing.
    I heard that Adobe was trying to keep CS6 up to date as a parallel thing to CC. Surely I don't have to switch to a $600/year subscription just so I can pre-render portions of the timeline like a lower-end competitor program has had for something like 5 years...?
    What am I missing? There has to be a way to do this simply.

    Are you sure?
    I have only 3 options on my Sequence menu.
    The first is: Render Effects in Work Area (default shortcut - Enter)
    Then: Render Entire Work Area
    and: Render Audio
    No other Render options are available from that menu.
    Oddly, those two things are virtually identical. One of them shows 52 clips, the other showed 57 clips. With 26389 frames (approximately...) ETA is around 20-25 mins. That's not very workflow friendly.
    It is smart enough that if I pre-render once, making minor changes later makes for much less pre-rendering work, but because I'm working with so many similar projects and sequences, all of them end up needing to be completely re-pre-rendered even if I'm doing a copy-paste and I need to tweak a few little things in one area of the timeline.
    This was especially evident recently when in a 3 hour period, I had to go through 4 revisions and needed to keep my original iterations because the person who made the broad, sweeping decisions was making really bad decisions and I knew I would end up going back to my original plan and making a few comparatively simple changes (which is exactly what happened right after the 3 hours).
    Out of 3 hours, I could have lost a good hour and a half just waiting around for pre-rendering stuff that hard already been pre-rendered, but because it had been copy-pasted, Prem couldn't see those previous pre-renders.
    I actually only lost around 40 mins. But I had to reshoot footage, including setting up lights and camera angles, plus import and do color correction again thanks to no round-tripping to speedgrade and having shot in other areas with those cameras...
    If I had been doing it in Vegas, I would have spent only around 10 minutes doing those pre-renders. Oh and Vegas can use my GPU... I'm an Adobe guy mainly, so it's frustrating to see Vegas win on silly niggles like this.

  • Can't render preview on some clips

    In my timeline I've got a bunch of clips - some have yellow lines above them in the render bar, some red, some green.  And then some have no lines at all, it's these that are the problem.
    When I tell it to 'render preview' it will make all the clips with yellow and red lines turn to green just fine, but does nothhing with the clips that have no lines above them at all, it's like it thinks 'these clips are so easy to play I dont need to render preview, they dont have effects or anything on them', however it is sorely mistaken because when I play back the preview everything plays fine except those clips, which stutter and skip (because they are uncompressed HD video).
    Is there a way to force every clip to 'render preview', not just the ones Premiere thinks need it?

    I am editing it off a seperate hard drive, an external harddrive connected via USB.  So that could very well cause it.
    I'd like to keep editing it there though, if there's some way I could tell premiere to cache the files even though they look like an agreeable format...

  • Preview render playback of multicam sequences causes freeze and crash

    I have been editing a timeline with several multicam clips that crashes Premiere anytime I try to play back a rendered preview (green bar) area.
    First I render the sequence—playback is initially OK. Then after about 10 minutes, often after I have switched back from another program, without fail the playback will stutter and then freeze altogether on certain clips. Gradually more and more clips on the timeline will 'corrupt' until no playback is possible; the program monitor freezes. When I attempt to Delete Render files, I get the beachball cursor and Ppro locks up completely, prompting a force-quit and sometimes a "serious error has occurred" dialog box and then a crash notice of type "I386_GPFLT"
    OSX 10.9.4
    MacPro5,1
    Nvidia GTX 570
    I have tried so far:
    -deleting preferences
    -deleting cache
    -deleting preview files
    -swapping graphics cards
    -switching to software-only playback
    -swapping memory modules
    -disabling Mavericks' "compressed memory" function
    -changing cache and preview locations to another drive
    -importing the project into a new one
    The problem only occurs on timelines with multicam sequences. Does anyone else have this issue? Any ideas what's going on?

    Still encountering this problem after latest update.

  • My project gets an error message and crashes everytime I go to render or preview on AE

    I have recently starting using AE on my computer, every now and then its struggled to work but I haven't had any major issues until now.
    When I try to render or preview my project I've had an error message pop up saying:
    "After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in "Shatter".
    then followed by a second message
    "After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was <6492> <getdepthpinflags> <5> 32:32 bit
    and finally
    "After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. See http://www.adobe.com/support/products/aftereffects.html for known issues. If you still can't resolve this issue, please contact Adobe Technical Support (2).
    it then asks me to save and crashes.
    I think it may be to do with my computer specs as it does struggle at times in other areas on AE
    can someone tell me if i need to buy something like a new graphics card or something?
    I don't have any knowledge when it comes to computer specs so heres a link to all the specifications for my computer: HP Support document - HP Support Center
    please help me! need to have this project finished so if I need to buy something new for the computer i need to buy  it straight away
    thanks

    How much ram do you have installed? Which OS? Your link to specs provides no details for your system.
    What version of AE are you using down to the last decimal point?
    We need to know something about your project. The kind of footage used, the size of the comp you are trying to render, the render settings are all critical information.

    can you help my for my problem
    sorry for any mistake in ortographe

    Can you provide some info about your system? Graphics card? Screeen resolution? Operating system? What input device (mouse or tablet)? This error has cropped up elsewhere recently, but since the person asking did not provide any details, we were unable to resolve it. If you are having difficulty posting in English, feel free to use your native language. We have English, French,Spanish, German, Russian and even a bit of Japanese covered by people here, so someone might be able to even answer in that language, provided a solution is available.

  • Premiere Pro CC: Pre-Render stalls and hangs occassionally

    Hi all,
    is everyone else experiencing that after hitting enter to do a quick pre-render, the progress bar pops up but then the system just "hangs". The application doesn't really stop working, but there is no progress.
    It almost feels that the application can't find the source material. But it only does it occasionally. Its hard to reproduce reliably, The "Rendering" window appears and then nothing happens. When I click cancel, the system locks up and that is it then. Sometimes it comes back to life, but only sometimes...could not find a pattern here either.
    I first thought its my hard drive but then it just happens at times, just as like it had forgotten where to look for the source material. Its very annoying ...

    I've not seen this myself.  How long do you wait for it till you decide it's not working?
    I have seen things lock up when hitting Cancel, though.  Not sure what that's about.
    On a side note, there is no pre-render in PP.  Hitting Enter is just a render.

  • Premiere Elements 8 and crashes

    Question:  I have tried all the Adobe recommended fixes due to my NVidia graphics card but my project still regularly crashes and now as soon as it starts loading the elements, it crashes with no error message.

                  NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS Display Adapter with newest 64 bit driver 266.58
    Assets:   About 300 still images imported from an album in Photoshop elements shot with a Cannon Power Shot a570 IS
                  Stills are at 3072 x 2304 or vice version, RGB, 180 resolution
                  27 short video clips from a Kodak Zi6 converted to avi files by AVS Video Converter
    Project:  I believe the presets are for NTSC DV although I can't get in to check; they've been this way because I usually shoot video with my Sony VX 2100.
    Workflow:  I imported the stills in chronological order preceding the first video.  Then more stills in chronological order before the next relevant video.  I am using the timeline.  After each import I save, add transitions (mostly the cross dissolve), save, and render.  Sometimes after saving rendered files, the system crashes and when I get back in the files haven't been rendered.
         Some vertical stills it accepts just fine.  For some others, I have to rotate them.
    What I have done:  I read all the suggestions from Adobe and the forums for dealing with the NVIDIA card.  This is what I have done in the approximate order I have done it:
         1. Installed the 8.0.1 update
         2. Updted the NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS driver to the newest 64 bit driver 266.58.  I tried to do this update a couple of times.  The sytem kept telling me the 260 driver was current but the NVIDIA website said to use the 266.58.  I finally got it installed but a little later in the process.
         3. I could not disable the Hardware Acceleration as the NVIDIA card would not let me...the option was grayed out.
         4. I set both the global and the Premiere Elements threaded optimination to off.
         5. I turned off "Enable GPU playback" at one time when I could still get into the program.
         6. I recreated the adobe premiere elments plugincache.
         7. I uninstalled the Nvidia 3D Stereo driver...it was called Stereo not steroscopic.  In the NVIDIA control panel I did not install the Stereoscopic functions.
         8.  I was still crashing frequently. I was getting the low memory message, so I searched the forums and found directions to change the size of the paging file by clicking Start/accessories/run as administrator/enter at the command prompt BCDEDIT/SET INCREASEUSERVA ####.  I started with 3072 then gradually increased as it wasn't helping up to 8000.
         9. I think I finally upgraded the driver to the 266.58 at this point.
        10.  This morning I found directions on how to check the size of the paging file by accessing the control panel.  It showed my paging file was only 4096 (I guess the former advice didn't work) and it changed it to a virtual memory minimum of 8000 and a maximum of 10000.
         Now I can't get into the program at all.  It says it has loaded 100%, then there is a 100 second pause.  It starts loading the media and crashes.
    I love Adobe products and was a former Adobe Premiere 6.5 user. Premiere Elements as described is perfect for me as a video hobbyist.  Please help!  I would welcome any more suggestions that I can try.  Do you think I should just find a replacement for the NVidia board?  If so, what would you recommend.  I tend to do long projects.  I just can't live with all these crashes.
    Sincerely,

    Tracy,
    Great job with the details - very well done!
    This should be a "poster-child" for how to state details, and a problem.
    Now, first thing that I see, regarding the crashes are the size of your still images. Overly-large stills require a ton of resources, and can crash the program, and/or the computer. Scaling of the stills to near the Frame Size of the Project will help greatly, and actually improve the quality of the output. This ARTICLE will give you tips.
    Next, with a 64-bit OS, like Win7-64, 4GB of RAM is about the minimum for just the OS. Though PrE cannot use more than the 3.5GB of RAM, as it is still a 32-bit app., but the OS and other programs, certainly can. I would bump that up, if at all possible. Your OS and any other programs, will love you for it.
    Off the top of my head, it sounds like you have got the video sub-system well handled, and would look beyond it (for now), to other factors.
    You might want to see this ARTICLE on setting up a computer for video-editing sessions, and especially the link to Black Viper's Win7 Tune Up Tips Web site.
    Also, check that you have the latest version of Apple's QT Player.
    If necessary, there are more troubleshooting tips, and I'll be glad to share those, if necessary.
    Thanks for the great post, and good luck,
    Hunt
