Premiere CS4 - Multiple tracks always require rendering regardless

It used to be if you had for instance mutiple tracks and the top track was a DV-AVI file with 100% opacity and no filters, no rendering was required. Now it seems that if you have anything on the lower tracks, even if completely hidden by the top layer, rendering is always required and transcoding takes longer - sometimes considerably depending on what's on the lower layers though not seen. I actually have to completely remove sections of clips on the lower tracks to speed up transcoding. Just more unnecessary work and time.
Forgive me if this has been discussed before, but I can not seem to find this precise issue among the slow rendering discussions.

I hope you've found the answer already, but it sound exactly what I've run into.
My problem was that I upgraded from CS2 and then removed the suite once CS4 was running.
If you have done the same thing, simply reinstall Premiere CS4 and it will work as it did for me.
If not, I don't know what to tell you.
Good luck,

Rendering Freeze in Premiere CS4

I had a DV 24P project go into what I call "rendering freeze" - it opens up the render box, but then does nothing. It will simply sit there for hours if I let it, but I can escape out of it at any time. The project was a CS3 import that is 95% done, and my deadline isn't until March, so I set it aside for more pressing work. I'm on Vista Ultimate and CS4 has been rock solid for me on multiple projects, from scratch and CS3 imports.
(under "render details" it shows the start time correctly, but both the "time elapsed" and "free disk space" fields are blank)
Tonight I started a new 1080 HD1080P 24 project, and a few renders into it the same thing happened. I thought this would be a good opportunity for troubleshooting, since I had little time invested into the project.
I tried deleting effects, tracks, then assets, and finally everything to see if I could get a render to work. Dead. I tried opening a new sequence and importing a simple jpg as an asset. Same problem. I tried it over again using DV and other sequence timelines to see if it was format dependent. The freeze seemed to be project independent.
I started over with a new project using the same format, assets, and effect, duplicating the same steps as as closely as possible, and rendering continues to work fine - and I'm much further into the project. This has me scared to death that my DV project (the one that is 95% done) is nearly useless (the 5% left to do is all detail work and must be rendered to check edits).
Has anyone else had this problem?

Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1 Halts rendering whatever I ask!

Hi there.
Finally I decided to post this.
I have been tracking in internet this situation for months... since PPro CS4 got out, I have been testing and working with it. However, I cannot say I prefer CS4 to other opponents (even one or two Linux apps oddly). The thing is when an app makes us spectate, we should have results! I cannot go back to previous releases of PPro because I need that queue in AME. So, let me beggin to explain the error:
The application (Premiere Pro CS4 or Adobe Media Encoder [AME]) halts forever when rendering video (a code loop? while "something"="some thing" then do "render frame again"?). So, happening the error in two aplications that use a bunch of files, I must say it is something used by booth like, my guess, PProHeadless. Moreover, the video it might have a filter or not, an opacity key, might be in a diferent format and created within adobe realm, or even outside like Fusion or Combustion, it can stop. And I say can because I am making tests these holy days to reach a conclusion: it's random. It might ocour in frame 150, or in 20 000, with some kind of format video or a filter or everything "as nature as" a PPro captured avi.
Graphics? Updated as today means. Windows? Up to date also! Adobe Premiere Pro? same thing as you already noticed.
This halt is documented by a png file atached to this post. With taskmanager also. That halt is typical. I am in windows 7 64bits, but also have winxp 64bits that produces the same error. The program can only be terminated by process kill and that sort of things.
As I have searched thoughout the internet, I have only seen a post in creative cows that appears similar to this. No luke for a solution yet. When update 4.2.0 came and I had an enormouse reliefe, thiinking it would "heal" the program... no good. I have not been able to respect some deadlines with clients. I will shift if necessary! At least the minimum would be an error ex spit by the program... nothing never came out. I'm blind and adobe might be also. All programs I've try to develop had error mannagement. CS4 release was something apparatuouse but could had wait for a 4.1.0 update in Premiere for instance... I am really tempted for a mac! At least I know what should I buy to make a program run in there... just a mac!
As I see, no software seems to be the problem. It's a fresh install of windows 7 and PPro CS4. Nothing else installed in the system but flash, vlc, acrobat reader MSN live, calim av, proDVD mercalli
Hardware bug or incopatability?
So... my specs if this helps:
Processor:     AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ 2.21 GHz
Ram:             5,00 GB 667Mhz
OS:               Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit Operating System
Graphic board: NVIDIA GeForce 7300 LE
MB:               Asus M2N-E with Serial 3Gb/s RAID
Disks:            1 SATA for OS.     SATA Disks for footage and project storage 7000 rotations all I think
I believe everything is Adobe PPro supported... so... where the hell is the problem?
Thanks in advance!

OK
I have been these days arround this issue. Done many troubleshooting... trying to understand problems. Here is what I got:
Getting the hauppauge board off the PC seems to have stopped the "halt" of the encoders and renderings in Premiere and AME. Hope it won't happen again, but, It's kind an exclusion game... What was diferent from the setups I have seen in many forums and posts was this ancient board. Adobe shoulde analyse this one against Premiere CS4 and AME: Hauppauge WinTV-Go bt848 conexant board (or it's a lost of time... as it's not supported anymore in Windows, but is in Linux :] ).
As for the playback... a fine tune for performance options of my graphic board was able to reduce the jerkiness of video... so I had the idea to also overclock both processor and graphics. The result is this:
Before: Processing of video with the timeline in view (default workspace) was allways 100%, skipping so many frames that even entire clips coundln't send a sigle frame. Where only the output frame (ç shortcut) playback was almost aceptable, with processing at 100% and some times going leaving a tiny space for other things to process.... The fine tune of graphics board, was able to get in default workspace the insertion of may more frames in there, and with ç shortcut - output full mode, it was 95-100 spiking frequently between them.
Now: Default workspace: 80% processing... Output frame: 60-70% My pc is now in test to seach for the optimal (aceptable) overclock parameters. And it seems I can overclock even more (not in graphics but the processor).
This is good and aceptable for the computer setup...
However, to everyone reading this, please be very carfull at how you overclock. Be shure you read everything you can find (from reliable sources - your hardware suppliers, as for the processor, the mother board, the graphic board... etc..). If you mess something, better you have the money to replace :].
Thanks for everyting

Issues rendering Premiere CS4 movie with Media Encoder

I'm new to this but thought that someone might be able to provide some insight. I have Premiere CS4 and created a movie from a HD video camcorder.
The imported clips are in the following format:
Type: MPEG Movie
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Pixel Depth: 32
Frame Rate: 29.97
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Average Data Rate: 1.3 MB / second
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0
Now I'm simply trying to export the movie (Ctrl+M) using Media Encoder. I've been messing around with several different formats, including H264, MPEG and AVI and so far regardless of what output format I pick (even downsize) I'm getting some sort of "tearing" up in my clips. I'm not entirely sure how to describe this but it almost looks like a ghost effect with subjects leaving a ghost image when the scene starts moving around a bit.
I rendered the same exact clip using Windows Movie Market just for the sake of it and everything looks fine.
I'm rendering the clip on a Core i7 920 @3.7Ghz with 6GB of RAM so I don't think the speed is an issue as either (HD is a 300GB Velociraptor).
Any ideas what I am doing wrong
Thanks,
Sam

Premiere CS4 Renders incorrectly

I am having issues with rendering is Premiere CS4. Everytime I import files (png, gif, swf) and try to render them they are distorted. I pay close attention to match the original file settings in my presets and have used the interpret footage option and that doesn't either. I am using a custom setting with a square pixel ratio and 24 fps. Any ideas?

JSS1138 wrote:
I guess the point I was trying to make is that you don't edit swf files. You create them when you're done editing standard camera media.
I agree. Is there a reason for using swfs? Are you creating some animation effects in Flash or are you using swf sources that you didn't create yourself?
Do the images look distorted in Premiere or is it just when you export? If it's just when you export it sounds like the export has different aspect ratio settings than your project. Check to make sure all of your export settings match your project (Especially Frame size and Pixel aspect ratio).
I usually try to use 32-bit targa files for still images or a Photoshop .psd file since both can retain the alpha information. JPEGs work well also, but can't hold alpha info. Can you bring some of your images into Photoshop, convert them and see if that helps?

HD Audio requires rendering...but it didn't always!

I'm working with XDCAM HD 1080i60 35vbs material. I've working on a quad tower as well as a dual processor macbookpro.
I've been using the trick where you create a sequence, drop all your individual
XDCAM clips into the sequence, change the audio settings on that sequence to mono and then map audio track 1 to output 1, audio track 2 to output 2, same for 3rd and 4th channels.
I then take the sequence icon, drag it into the viewer window, and now I can scan all my clips as if they were one long clip. I then overwrite the clips I want into the timeline.
A problem has arisen that I have not experience previously with the same source material and same machines.
When dropping the clips into the timeline, it now requires rendering. I'm running in UNLIMITED RT at the dynamic and/or lowest quality settings and have told audio to play back in low quality in user preferences, however it still wants me to render.
If I delete channels 3 and 4 from the timeline, I don't have to render, but once I add the third channel back, it wants to be rendered.
If I hadn't done this before on the same machines with the same quality footage without needing to render, I'd think it was a processor power problem, but I know it's not. The problem just started on both a tower and macbookpro where this trick worked fine on previous occassions.
Any input would be appreciated.

So basically you are nesting the sequences into new sequences right?
But more to the point. I have some sound effects files that are five channels for surround sound and when I use them I have to render the sequence.
It sounds to me like a nested thing. or the fact that there are five channels. But I am not sure.

Editing AE or Premiere CS4 projects in Audition 3?

Is there a way to import an After Effects CS4 or Premiere CS4 project with muitiple audio tracks/layers into Audition 3 and edit/balance each track individually? Have been using Soundbooth to clean up audio from individual video clips, but want to balance & add effects to multiple audio tracks prior to rendering final video. Thought Audition 3 might be a better option than using Premiere's audio mixer?

You can't do it quickly and easily but it is possible by making a rough rendered version (DVavi works well) to work with picture in Audition. Import that into Audition where the video and rough audio will be split to give you a guide track. You can then import all your individual audio tracks saved as .wav files into Audition to work on them and make a final mix to re-import back into Premiere for the final render.

Premiere CS4 is only encoding half of the audio

Ok, I'm basically stuck here.
I export my sequence from Premiere CS4 to Media Encoder and the final encoded video has audio for the first half but then abruptly cuts out and there's only silence after that.
The audio works and sounds fine in the Premiere project. It is mainly audio that was recorded with the video clips but there are also some unlinked music tracks as well. The video clips are a mix of .WMV, .MOV, and .AVI and the audio music clips are .WAVs. I'm currently working on a PC.
I tried re-encoding, restarting the computer and then re-encoding, and nesting the sequence within a new sequence and then re-encoding. The problem still persists though.
This problem is especially confusing because this is the third and final video to be exported from the project and the first two videos exported and encoded perfectly fine without any audio problems. The first two videos also contained a similar mix of video and audio formats.
So, I'm really confused and frustrated with this issue. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Were you able to fix it? Any ideas, solutions, or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
-Ben

Thanks for the message Hunt.
When I said that the audio cuts out at different times I was referring to exporting the same sequence with no editing. So, when the exact same sequence is exported multiple times the audio will cut out at different points for each exported video. This makes it really hard to pinpoint a specific clip.
Thanks for the ideas about where to look for the problem. I didn't really keyframe the audio at all but there were keyframes on some of the video clips. I was working with Effects a lot but mainly just for video color correction and transitions. I agree about there being a lot of nooks and crannies and it's pretty unfortunate that it has come to checking into all of those.
I agree that AME shouldn't be causing this problem out of "sheer meaness" but I am rather inclined to start referring to AME as the "Adobe Meaness Encoder", ha ha!
FIXED!! Ok, so I figured out a work around which is a little shoddy but seems to do the trick.
-Based on mickkeav's suggestion I updated AME with the 4.0.2 update. I don't know if this solved anything or not because I didn't do an export immediately after updating.
-I exported out the entire sound track from my final sequence as a .WAV and then replaced the original, problematic audio with that new .WAV file. This seemed to solve the problem because the sound now works fine and doesn't cut out at all. The audio still sounds as good as it did originally too.
An earlier, similar solution was to use Quicktime Pro to remove the existing, errored sound track from the video and then add the new and complete .WAV file but this increased the video's file size by 100 mb whereas encoding with the new .WAV track in AME did not increase the video file size at all.
Thanks for the help and hopefully nobody else runs into this problem!

Premiere CS4 "Save As" for Avid or FCP

Hello,
Is there a way to save my composition or sequence for Avid or FCP .
My buddy works with Avid and FCP and he wants me to send him my composition or sequence so can work on it.
I use Premiere CS4.
Thanks

Ex Malterra,
> I'm curious as to which versions CS4 can save an FLA as.
Flash CS4 can save FLAs as CS4- and CS3-compatible files.
(By
comparison, Flash CS3 is able to save CS3- and 8-compatible
files. Flash 8
can save 8- and MX 2004-compatible files, and so on, back.
Always the
current version and the version before.)
> some customers require the version to be 8. For this and
> other reasons we need to be mindful when considering

It can get tedious, but if you're using CS4 and want to save
for Flash
8, you'll have to Save As CS3, then open that file in CS3 and
Save As 8.
Keep in mind -- and this isn't new to CS4 -- you always risk
losing features
when you save to a previous version of Flash. For example,
Flash 8
introduced blend modes. If you use those and try to save your
file as an MX
2004 file, you'll lose that particular feature.
> Also, will CS4 allow us to create files as either AS2
(gotta

> CS3 does?
Yes. Flash CS4 supports all the versions of ActionScript as
Flash CS3.
That said, you can always use 3rd party components to meed
your needs, if it
comes to that. The Yahoo! Developer Network features free

Multi-camera AVCHD editing workflow in Premiere CS4

I have a client project that has me wondering what workflow to use and I someone on this forum probably has the expertise to know the right solution. My requirements...
1. Client is recording a scene using 4 cameras at once, like a live TV show is shot, all AVCHD footage, 1920x1080px 17mbs, square pixels.
2. I must playback in Premiere the 4 video streams in real time and choose one camera to output, like a director would switch a live TV show. So, all 4 streams are playing in Premiere's multiple-camera editing windows. Each show I'm editing is about 1 hour long. The advantage of multi-camera editing of course is I can play all 4 cameras at once and live switch between them in Premiere to arrive at a 1 hour show in 1 hour of editing time.
3. Until I can upgrade my hardware that can possibly handle 4 streams of AVCHD, I'm stuck needing a workflow to convert the original AVCHD to some lowres format, edit those offline low res copies to get my edit decision list, and then reconnect the online HDV AVCHD clips to export through Media Encoder for a final production. My output format is Flash F4V 640x360 px square pixels for Internet playback.
4. Hardware: I'm running Windows 7 RC using CS4 Premiere 4.1, 4gb RAM, 2.4ghz dual-core processor with 64mb Intel turbo boost on a notebook PC. I do have 4 hard drives to hold each camera's footage on its own drive, and a fifth drive to ouput the edited version to, in addition to a drive to hold my OS and Premiere. The external drives are connected via eSATA to the notebook.
Question 1: what do you suggest as the lowres format I should convert my AVCHD footage to for multi-camera playback/editing in Premiere?
Question 2: do you think it's even possible to buy a desktop PC that can handle playback of 4 multicam AVCHD native format files in Premiere in real time? I'm concerned this may be too much for even the most powerful systems, and I would need to resort to editing lowres footage even with the most powerful desktop. As you know, decompressing one or two AVCHD streams is taxing to a PC so 4 at once is a challenge.
Question 3: an alternative workflow would be to feed live video out of the HDMI connectors on the cameras into four HDMI capture cards (Intensity Blackmagic) and capture uncompressed HDV bypassing AVCHD compression altogether, but the disk space required would be substantial. Does this make sense? I've even considered feeding those 4 HDMI feeds into a video switcher between the cameras and PCs but the cheapest solution I can find that can provide genlock (frame sync) between the 4 cameras for clean glitch-free switching is quite expensive, thousands of dollars invested.

I must playback in Premiere the 4 video streams in real time
Good luck with that. Many folks have trouble with even one stream.
edit those offline low res copies to get my edit decision list
I'm not sure offline editing with AVCHD will be possible because of the folder structure. You may not be able to 'replace' the lower res copies with AVCHD.
My output format is Flash F4V 640x360 px square pixels for Internet playback.
Oh, man. Shooting HD of any flavor is just overkill that adds unnecessary work to the process. Have your client shoot in DV.

(Windows) Premiere cs4 with Canon 5D Mark II

I'm seriously considering buying Adobe's Production Premium, but I am extremely concerned about Premiere's support for the files outputted by my Canon 5D Mark II, h264 .mov 1920x1080p 30fps.
I've done a lot of research and it seems as if a lot of folks with a lot more experience, better hardware components and 3rd party software packages haven't been able to find a workflow that is reasonable in terms of effort and time required just to get a project going.
Can anyone give me a reason why I shouldn't seriously consider moving to an Apple solution with FCP Studio over production premium cs4 with premiere and after effects?
Thanks for your honest opinions!

If you want to stay on PC, would be the main reason.
I dont know how well FCP handles it; but typically fcp converts everything to an intermediate format (pro res)
I am definitely cringing at the thought of ditching all of my PC components (well, I suppose I can re-use the hard-drives at least in the Mac Pro if that's what I get). I do like a lot about windows, and being able to upgrade my stuff to my own liking rather than being stuck in a closed ecosystem. I also game a lot so that's a consideration too.
The way FCP converts the video to Pro Res sounds pretty smart and definitely take the guesswork out.
Jim Simon
Best one I can think of is that it would be an Apple solution.
The better solution would be to get a real video camera for video production. While the world of DSMC is rapidly approaching, we're not quite there yet.
Thanks for your reply, Jim!
I agree making the switch to Apple and Final Cut Studio might not be the best solution.
I cannot really speak to getting a "real" video camera just because Premiere cs4 can't seem to play nicely with the camera I currently have.
I am able to drag and drop 5D Mark II .mov files straight into imovie 6 HD, have it import (40 gb of movies in 4-5 hrs) and then edit away with no delays on a Macbook (non-pro) with no problems whatsoever. Playback, cutting, transitions, effects are silky smooth. Imovie 6 HD came with my Macbook when I bought it in December 2006. Premiere Pro came out last year didn't it? What gives?
There are people making some "real" good stuff out there with this camera and I love its ability to use all of my Canon lenses (four), high capacity memory cards (ranging from 8gb to 32gb) and camera batteries that I already have. Buying a new, but "real", camera would mean learning a whole new camera system not to mention having to buy all of the accessories, lenses, batteries, memory cards (a Panasonic P2 16gb alone is $800 USD) and carrying all that extra stuff around. If I'm on vacation for instance every morning I would have to make the decision of carting around either the still camera or the video camera instead of just bringing something that could do it both, and potentially miss either a once in a lifetime still or video.
I'm a photographer by trade but I'm getting into video production because I feel like I will need video editing/production skills in the future or I'll be left in the dust. That isn't the only reason of course - I've always wanted to shoot video but couldn't afford or justify a quality camera until now.
Jim why do you prefer Premiere to Final Cut Pro on the Mac?
Thanks again for replying.

Premiere CS4 export Mpeg2 setting

i use Premiere CS4 and i am a leisure user.
1. when i export mpeg2, the video is 800m file sze
    if i export to DVD, the files (video + audio) are 240m
   as i know DVD is mpeg2, what's wrong with the setting on huge file size difference?
   i need a small size mpeg2 file.
2. can i edit vob directly? it is very time-consuming to convert vob to avi and then edit.
3. when i used premiere pro before, it has function to export DVD directly at premiere.
    but now CS4 need to revert to Encore. Any fast track?
4. i alway have corrupted cache when importing avi files. i need to remove cache and import again until it is ok
   any way i can do it better or less error.
5. any fast method to simply cut the movie, not do any change of resolution, codec....
Thanks a lot in advance. i have lots of question.
Tony

Unfortunately, you've posted to the Premiere, and not the Premiere Pro forum. This is for a program that predates the "Pro" designation. Maybe the MOD's will move this for you, so you'll get more traffic.
Now, let's see if I can address some of your questions:
As for the MPEG-2, it is most likely that the larger file has a much higher bit-rate. What are the settings between your Exported MPEG-2 and those in the Transcoded file? That is the common difference.
As for editing .VOB's, if they are 100% DVD-compliant (very important), then CS4.1 can Import and edit. These still have the MPEG-2 compression, but should work fine. If those .VOB's were created by Encore, then changes are almost 100% certain, that you can edit them. If not, then the odds go down, and quickly. See this ARTICLE on .VOB's.
Export to DVD directly, went away with CS3. The included Encore is much, much better, and is the way to go. There is also a forum for it.
I've never had a corrupted cache, and cannot help here.
If you have DV-AVI Type II material as source, you can edit until the cows come home, and Export to DV-AVI Type II with no noticable degredation. Other formats/COCE's not so much. Here, it just depends.
Good luck,
Hunt

Contour HD1080 Files Jerky Premiere CS4

My system is a Dell m1330, core 2 duo 2.4GH, 4 gigs ram, Vista 32bit
Ok I am a bit new to these new file formats. I am trying to edit some footage from my Contour HD 1080 on Premiere CS4 and it plays really jerky and freezes at points. I do not have any of those POS codec packs installed. the only thing I have installed is Coreavc Pro. Coreavc was the only way I could get the files to play correctly in Media Player Classic (which plays them just fine now so I know its not a hardware speed thing). I tried to install Quicktime and that was not even able to play the Contour MOV files correctly, because of this I removed Quicktime from my computer. I have tried to rename them to MP4 and use them in Premiere and it has the same effect.
Has anyone out there been able to play and edit these Cont HD MOV files with Premiere CS4. I would love to hear of a workflow so I can stop wasting time and get down to business.I would like to avoid installing Quicktime on my system if I can, I would love to be able to use CoreAVC with premiere (becuase it seems like the only thing that works with these ridiculous files), and I don't wont to have to convert hours of footage before it will work in Premiere if I have to.

Multiple tracks on a single processor

Hi,
Whenever I create an audio processor, the number of tracks is always one, that figures that I can only transmit a single codec, like gsm or ulaw. Say, i need a processor with multiple tracks in order to switch codecs dynamically during session. How can it be done? i've tried using ProcessorModel and feed it with multiple audio formats, but it would throw a CannotRealizeProcessor exception all the time. Any ideas?

I was waiting for someone to give you an answer on this because I'm curious if anyone has been able to do what you described...
Alas, from the extreme silence I assume nobody has been able to do what you describe. Personally, I think I would create a custom Codec that would incorporate the codecs I wanted to switch between and do it that way. You would have only one track but the codec would have to somehow know when to switch decoding/encoding methods. Presumably a payload change event or other programming event could trigger this. This is somewhat similar to how I've handled DTMF events with Ulaw data in the past.
