PrE won't render effects correctly

I'm sure it's a simple oversight, but it's driving me nuts. What am I doing to cause PrE 9 not to render the auto level effect correctly when I "Share" it out to view? I've searched through the forums and the support for the last couple hours and haven't found any answers.
Here's a screen shot of my workspace (left) and the rendered .mp4 (right). The .mp4 is exactly what the clip looks like without the effect applied.
Thanks for taking a look and for any insights.

Thanks Nash_John for your suggestions.
I'm using a Zi8 recording at 1080p. I opened a new project to see what's goin' on. My successful projects are AVCHD 720p. When I select AVCHD Lite 60 and attempt to pull in a clip, I get the mismatch warning. I allowed PrE9 to select a project format that matches the media. It defaults to DSLR1080 and looks like garbage. So to answer your first question, I'm not sure if this is the best match for my source clip.
The properties eyeballs are all visible and on
It renders as wanted/needed/expected in the timeline, just not in the export/render out.
Thanks again for you help. I appreciate it.

Clip won't render

I have a timeline of a few clips and one of the clips in the middle won't render (the green line never appears above it).
There is no red line above, just gray. no matter how many times I hit enter and go through the entire workarea, it stays gray.
The entire thing plays fine in preview but the green line never appears. Then when I save it as a quicktime, the audio is messed up in that part of teh clip.
any suggestions? thanks.

Glad that other formats work for you. I do not know the causes of the problems with QT, but many experience them. One noted poster, Jeff Bellune from the PrPro and the Encore forum, summed it up this way, "Apple just does not understand anything PC." [OK, maybe a slight paraphrase there, but you get the idea.]
I wish that I had a real "fix," but similar can happen when working with MPEG-2 Assets, and then going to a DVD-Video (another MPEG-2 Transcode). I have fought that one, but clients insist on working with MPEG-2 muxed files from previous DVD's, and refuse to go back and get footage, prior to the creation of that DVD. Sometimes, one gets lucky, but often OOS sinks in, and there is little that one can do about it. On one Project, I had sync perfect on the Timeline, but when we'd go to to the delivery DVD, it would be out. I moved Clips around, for the OOS scenes, by my guess on OOS. Without being able to see it on the Timeline, it was seat of the pants. I'd move a second, and observe no correction. Two seconds and still no change. Three seconds, and I'd get two seconds in the other direction! Finally, I had to just say, until you get the footage before Transcoding to MPEG-2 and the DVD, that is the best that you'll get.
Sorry for the bad news, and I wish that I had a "cure" for the QT Export. It plagues folk on PrPro, and also PrE. When things go well, all is OK. When sync goes out, there seems no way to get it right.
Good luck,
Hunt

Timeline won't render in Premiere Elements 12 (and music video editing advice)

I have a section of video I'm editing that won't render. I've read some similar threads but still have a question about how I can edit the clips to 'force' a render.
I'm running PE 12 on a Core i3 laptop running Windows 8, so not a huge amount of processing power. I don't have an orange line above the timeline over these clips and I understand PE has decided that it's already giving me the best possible preview quality and doesn't need to render this section. However, it's four quick edits in time to some music and when I preview it back my computer clearly can't process the video and audio fast enough because I get very jerky video so I can't verify that the cuts are perfectly aligned to the drum beats.
I've been exporting the whole four minutes just to review about five seconds of video in the middle to make sure it's synched, and this is getting really frustrating as I'm having to make frame by frame adjustments to improve the sync.
Is there anything I can do to each clip, like adjust an image setting, to force PE to give me an orange line and want to render this section?
Just as an aside to anyone who edits music video type clips - if you're making, say, four quick cuts to four drum beats in a bar, do you find the audio/visual sync works best if the cut is on the frame the drum beat attack starts on, or does it seem more natural if it's one or two frames after the initial attack so it's 'mid drum beat'? I'm tending to find just after the initial attack looks/sounds better for me - but maybe that's something to do with the delay in my PC processing the frame!
Thanks for any advice,
Chris.

Please excuse the questions, but I did not want to take anything for granted...are you sure that you are looking above the Timeline content for the render indicator line? Assuming that you are OK with that.....
Are the gray tabs of the Work Area Bar placed so that they span the entire content of the Timeline, including this five second content which you say cannot be rendered. Remember rendering does not fix problems, rather it is a preview that helps you to realize that a problem exists sooner than later. Consequently, please confirm if an orange line persists over that five second content even if you press the Render key above the Timeline.
Have you expanded the Timeline content to the maximum with the Zoom Out Zoom In Slider above the Timeline get the best look at the content on the Timeline in contrast to get the best possible preview in the Edit area monitor?
Have you gone to Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and set the Audio Display Format to Milliseconds if you are involved in audio edits?
Have you been nudging audio in sync with video using shortcuts, such as...
As you hold down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard, tap the left or right arrow key once (one tap = 1 frame nudge)
As you hold down the Shift+Alt keys of the computer main keyboard, tap the left or right arrow key once (one tap = 5 frames nudge)
I would suggest that exploration and experimentation are the best tools with which to work to achieve a specific effect for your specific
situation.
Please review and then let us know if any of the above targets your questions about your workflow.
Thank you.

Transitions won't render.

I've been having trouble on and off with the ken burns effect and now for some reason when I insert a transition it won't render. Is there some command I can put in that will make it render or something else I can do? Also, if I try to empty the trash I get an error message saying that something is rendering but nothing is.

HI Silas is Awesome - is your project stored on an external drive? If so it must be formatted for Macs - Mac OS Extended.

Themes won't render in iMovie06

When I use some Themes in iMovie in order to make my Holiday-Videos a little bit more "interesting", I can choose all the themes and templates und drag them in the timeline. However they won't render, so that the red line won't change. Also saving my project won't work, because it is still rendering (but nothing happens). I have this problem since QT 7.5 but cannot downgrade...
I waited a VERY long time for rendering-processes on my iMac 2.8 4GB but nothing happend at all.
what can I do?

puh.....
Thank you for the reply.
However, reinstalling the system without using a backup means very very much work... Is there no there Chance to use iMovie06 correctly?
I can't really believe that

Premiere Elements 9 won't render in the timeline.

Hey hope all is well.
I created a project in PE 4. Well, in what's looking like a not-so-smart-move midproject, I upgraded to PE 9. I opened the original PE 4 projectin PE 9 and it plays fine but won't render in the timeline. So, all of my effects and such won't render for a preview. This is actually an important project so any help would he appreciate. Thanks!
mck

This kind of behavior is common when a project is created with one version of the program and then opened with a newer version. This is why many of us on the forum (and I, in my book) recommend not doing this.
It's best to finish your version 4 project in version 4 and than start a fresh project in version 9.

AE won't render frames.

I have a fairly simple project. Main comp in which are several precomps with collapsed transformations. The transformation I need to collapse is a shape with the layer style set to multiply over a mask of the same shape on an adjustment layer with a blur. Basically the effect I want is everything under this shape to have a green cast and be blurred.
Everything was working perfectly fine. Now, suddenly, I added in a 3rd precomp with this type of effect, and AE won't render the relevant frames. I can't scrub through - it just hangs up and goes to black. Now if I deselect Collapse Transformations on that precomp, no prob, I can scrub through. So, I tried taking all the elements I need to collapse out of the precomp and placing them in my main comp instead. Same issue - it won't render the frames.
Anybody? Thanks.

Yeah, and I've noticed Andrew Kramer frequently warns people off the collapse transformations switch as it can cause unforeseen issues...I think in this case using that in tandem with VC Reflect made AE freak out. I was only really nesting for organizational purposes; maybe when I get everything laid out and timed I'll just move all the layers back into the main comp and try to reapply it without any precomps or collapse. It did add a nice finish to some parts of my video. Thanks for your help; I'm still not exactly sure what the problem was, but it def appears to be VC Reflect-related.

Ken Burns pictures won't render

Any picture I've added to my project that I tried to apply a Ken Burns effect to will not render. I'm stumped. What is the problem?

I import my pictures into the bottom where it says
drag clips to build your project. The red line comes
on the bottom of the picture and stays there, nothing
happens for over 15 minutes, when i try to add
transitions it says it cant because the clip is
rendering. I tried restarting the computer and it
still won't render. How do I get my pictures to
render in imovie?
did u ever figure it out? I am having the same problem on my MacBook--but never had it on my other Mac computer. Let me know what to do if you figure it out

Why is "Render Effects in Work Area" going so slow?

I was working on a project using multicam, and I did my cuts before my color correcting and went to color and render the multicam sequence directly. After opening it in the timeline and tweaking color for awhile, I went to render the effects using the "Render Effects in Work Area" command. This was going really fast at first, and had probably made it 75% of the way through in a few minutes. However, once it hit a point, the render slowed down to only a few frames a second and the last 25% was going to take 2 hours. I cancelled and started the process over, only this time the entire render went slowly.
A few important notes:
-The total length of the sequence is about 1 hour 20 minutes, so it's not a short thing
-I've tried this on two different computers, the second one I switched to going slow from the get-go
-The first time while doing this, I (stupidly) switched to another program and (stupidly) tried to render the entire clip at once (instead of using a smaller work area). Using a smaller work area makes no difference in the speed at this point, though.
-The multicam sequence is composed of two clips, one with a luma corrector effect and a luma curve effect, the other with an luma corrector effect and an rgb curves effect
-I have tried clearing the cache

Premiere Pro CS6 (not cc)
Late 2012 iMac running Mac OS 10.9.1 2.9GHz Intel Core i5 16 GB RAM (both computers; I'm in my university's computer lab)

Working from a LaCie rugged 1TB USB3.0 drive
Anyone have any ideas?

One reason I like to render my effects before export is that it helps expedite the final export and helps in the long run when I inevitably screw up the export a couple times for some reason, or when I have to re-export to a different format, with a negligible sacrifice in quality. The other is that I can more easily view how my effects affect my main sequence; right now it's too slow to play with the effects turned on.
I could just do it in the final export, and I guess I might have to at this point. And it bothers me that I'm having this problem, because it could potentially come up in other situations.

Video Won't Render

Hi all,
My video suddenly stopped rendering. I have no idea why.
I have tried:
restarting the computer
copying the project as a new project and deleting the previous one
Moving the video to a new sequence
Creating an entirely new project and creating a small sequence (also won't render so it's not just the project)
Any suggestions other than reinstalling the software, which I am not sure will help but is the only thing I can think of...
THANKS FOR ANY HELP!
Shari

My video suddenly stopped rendering. I have no idea why.
What, exactly, needs to be rendered?
By that I mean, is there compositing and/or transitions that need it? Or is it only filters?
If it's only filters, you might have an issue with your User Preferences. That is...
1. Press Option-Q (User Preferences)
2. Click on the Render Control tab (2nd from the right)
3. Make sure - in the 'Render & Playback' box - that the checkbox for 'Filters' is checked. Then click OK
(In case it isn't checked, you'll need to correct this in all of your sequences as well - press Command-0 [Zero] with the sequence active and alter it's Render Control settings)
Also, unrelated specifically to filters, please confirm that your settings under the 3 Render settings found in the Sequence menu in your menubar - Render, Render All, Render Only - have the (correct) settings applied. (ie. that at least something is check-marked. Otherwise, when those actions are activated, nothing will happen)
(all this in addition to the solid advice given by TV Show Guy :))

Media Encoder CC won't render Magic Bullet Denoiser II

Hello there,
i've got the following Problem: I am having Premiere CC and used the Red Giant Plug-In Denoiser II on my last project, when i import this project to the Media Encoder and select Quicktime for output, the Media Encoder won't render the clip with this Plug-In. i always get the original files out, without the denoiser. Original footage from in premiere is 2,5k CinemaDNG RAW from the Black Magic Cinema Camera.
thx

I feel like there was a recent update to the RG plugins (inside of the last 30 or so days.) Are they up to date?

FCP suddenly won't render anything

I had a project a client wanted a scene cut out so I deleted the transitions, selected my in and out points and shift + delete to remove the footage & close the gap. I put in a dip to color transition (green) but FCP won't render it, I just see a very brief window pop up and nothing. I removed the transition and it won't render the ends of the 2 clips (both are JPEG RGB graphics)Cap locks are off, all colors selected in sub menus, no gap, plenty of footage, tons of hard drive space. The system has been running like a dream up to now. I even deleted an existing transition, put it back and it won't render it. I've worn the book ragged reading it over and over but I must be missing something. Have also rebooted & checked my preferences though nothing seems out of place.

Sometime a sequence muff up with no reasons, what i do , i save the job save project as.. with a complete new name close FCP and reopen it with the new file most of the time it is working ,if not, export the complete sequence in self contained QuickTime movie

FCP 4 won't render

Hi,
I'm using fcp 4 and I when I try to render some scrolling text, it takes a long time and then comes up with general error 34. After that, it won't render anything. I have made sure that all the option colors are checked, and I have tried dumping the preferences.
Thanks

Hi David,
There is lots of space. I had a student that added some titling to a project at the end of a video, and it wouldn't render. Then when I put the same titling on top of a clip, it rendered without a problem. I'm not sure why this was happening.
