Premiere Elements 9 Won't Let Me Export Video. What's Wrong?

So I have been trying to edit a recent Let's Play video for my Youtube channel, but there is a huge problem. The program won't let me export my video. I tried to export it as a .mpg; but it will never finish rendering. I've tried other formats and the same thing happens. I tried making a new project file and the same thing happened. It will usually get to 1% or 47% and then the estimated time will start increasing and the video won't save any further. I've edited videos with these type of files before (.M2TS, .MP4, .WAV, & .PNG) and it has rendered just fine. Please help me because I have people who are asking for this video. My computer runs Windows 7 Professional and has 2GB of RAM.

You've got a couple of issues to be concerned with, Cwood.
First -- are you really running a Windows 7 Professional computer with 2 gig of RAM! If so, it's surprising you can even run Premiere Elements. I highly recommend you upgrade to 4 gigs of RAM at the minimum -- and, if your OS is Windows 7 64-bit, possibly 6 or 8 gigs. RAM is your computer's lungs. Without adequate RAM, your computer can barely breathe!
Also, make sure that you have adequate free space on your hard drive (I'd recommend at least 100 gigs) and that you have run Disk Cleanup and the Defragmenter so that Premiere Elements has adequate free space to use for temp and render files.
Second, editing video from recording software like Let's Play can have a number of inherent problems. What format is Let's Play recording your video as? If you open the video file in Media Info or G Spot, what frame rate, resolution and codec is displayed?
Finally, I would very much recommend AGAINST using an MPEG output for your YouTube output. MPEGs, like DV-AVIs, are interlaced videos, and they are really not going to look good at all when you post them online?
Have you tried using Premiere Elements 9's Share/Online/YouTube to output your video?

Twice the length of a cinema epic?
How are you expecting to distribute it?
iDVD encoding settings:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
Short version:
Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

Final Cut Pro X won't let me export because I worked from an SD card

Hello,
I made the stupid mistake of editing my project from an SD card and now FCPX won't let me export it. I have since exported the original files onto my hard drive and I attempted to relink the files in the project folder but no luck. The option to relink files opens a dialogue box but the computer can't seem to find the files and the option to manually locate the files is greyed out. This is a time sensitive issue and if I can't solve the problem I will have to stay up all night to complete the project again. The video files are AVCHD, does this have something to do with it? I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea what to do. Help??

TTry the reimport from camera function to import from the card.

IMovie won't let me export in HD

I imported an MP4 into iMovie, set the project preference to 16:9 and it still won't let me export the movie in anything but the "tiny and mobile" options. The "medium, large and HD" options are greyed out.
What could be the problem? thanks

After hours of searching through forums I have found the solution to our problem.
iPhone 4s video is automatically shot in HD. There is no way to turn this off.
In iMovie Version 9.0.4 iLife '11 you can set your project properties (File>Project Properties) to either either 16:9 widescreen or 4:3 standard.
Now HD is specifically widescreen and you can not create HD video in a 4:3 screen ratio. This is what my project was set to after spending over 16 hours working.
Once I change the ratio I was able to share and export my project in 720P and 1080P HD
You will have to tweak your project a little as when I went from 4:3 to 16:9 it cropped some of my video weird.
I hope this helped you as I am thoroughly relieved to have figured this out and slightly proud that I did it on my own.

How do I remove the Adobe Premiere Elements Trail Version Sign from my video?

I'm making a video using the Adobe Premiere Elements, but they have a trail version logo across the screen so I cannot fully make a video without that showing. Is there any possible way that I can remove it? Thanks!

uggrrl
You cannot remove the Adobe watermark from an export of the Premiere Elements tryout, be it an export to file saved to the computer hard drive or a burn to disc.
But, you can remove the Adobe watermark from the Premiere Elements project file (known as the project.prel) after you purchase the program.
All you do is open the project file from the tryout in the purchase Premiere Elements and then....
a. In the opened project, go to Timeline Menu/and click on Delete Rendered Files
or
b. do nothing (some of us have found that the Adobe watermark automatically disappears from the tryout project file when that tryout project file in opened in the purchased Premiere Elements.
See which one works for you. The classical version of the how to is "a" above.
Looking forward to your results.
Thanks.

Premiere Elements 11 stops responding at Exporter Quick Time Host.Bundle. Can this be fix?

I'm having a problem with my Premiere Elements 11 which has start happening recently. This problem occurs after I sucessfully open & close any of my projects in Premiere Elements 11. After closing Premiere and trying to go back on it when I want to use it again it stops responding when it reaches Exporter Quick Time Host.bundle. I have a OSX version 10.8.4 and QuickTime Player version 10.2. Does anyone know if this problem can be fix?

The footage that's in the project that I'm working on is from 2 different camcorders. One is a Sony DCR SR68 with the video format being MPEG-2 video, AC3 and its resolution being 720 x 480. The other camcorder is a Canon VIXIA HF R10 with the video format being AVCHD and its resolution being 1920 x 1080.
But here's the thing about the Canon camera. I got the videos from each other the camcorders into my computer by just copying the video files into a folder on my desktop. But here's the thing about the Canon camcorder, when I try to copy the videos from this camcorder I had to copy the whole folder which is named "PRIVATE" and the videos in this folder plays on the Quick Time Player.
When I started my project in Premiere Elements 11, I imported all the videos I copy into my computer into my project by going to Add Media > Files and Folders. The videos from Sony camcorder were mpg. and the videos from the Canon camcorder were mts.
I duplicated 2 of the videos from the "PRIVATE" folder by going into Quick Time Player > File > Duplicate. I imported these 2 videos into my project file the same way I did with the other videos. But I deleted the duplicated videos in my Project Asset panel yesterday when Premiere Elements was acting up.
Plus, my Premiere Elements 11 opens up without any stops/not responding because of this whole Exporter Quick Time Host.bundle after I restart my computer. I don't want to keep doing this since it's messing up my work flow. And that's what's going on.

IMovie Won't Let Me Export?

Hello!
My iMovie won't let me export in HD (1080p or 720p), which has proved to be very frustrating.
It first starts exporting:
but then after a few minutes, a message comes up:
What do I do? I've spent ages on this video, and it's really irritating, for me to start it all over again! I've updated all of my software, checked the App store for updates for iMovie, but there's nothing! What do I do???? GAH!!
Please help! Thanks in advance! Thank you!

I have the same problem and then some. I movie won't share this particular project, but it also won't save any changes made to it or any other project. At least that's what it started doing, now when I go to even try to make any changes it wigs out and things get scrambled in the Project window and it plays video from another project.
When I create a new project, the Share menu is available, but it won't save changes to that project either. And by that I mean I can put stuff in the project and do whatever, but as soon as I quit and relaunch the application, the project is empty. I did figure out that if I make changes in a new project and immediately share it to the media browser that it will save the changes, but then it messes up my other project even more somehow!
Tried archive and install, deleting plists, reinstalling iMovie and iLife support stuff (twice), repairing permissions, and changing permissions in the project package. Any other ideas?

Premiere Elements 9 can't find moved videos? How to move projects?

I have a customer with an almost full hard drive, with almost 100GB of Premiere Elements stuff. I copied the videos (.mts) to an external drive but the project can't find them there. I can open a project and go to Get Media, and if I browse to C:\My Documents\My Videos (the original location), I can get the video. If I browse to the new location (E:\My Videos), I can see the video but double clicking it does nothing.
I have looked in all the preferences in the Organizer and the Project and I can't find the path "C:\My Documents\My Videos" anywhere, so I can't change it to the new location. Projects can find them in "C:\My Documents\My Videos" even though the current path to videos is shown as "C:\My Documents\My Pictures". How do I do this?
A second question: How do I move projects to the new location? Most of the answers I have found are for Elements 4 or so. If it's obvious and is answered in another location, a link would be great.
Lew

To move a project to a new location -- such as to an external drive -- use the Project Archiver, under the File menu.
This will copy not only the project file but also all of the connected media files associated with a project without losing the links. You can then delete the original project and media files from the C drive.
Otherwise, you'll need to open each project and manually locate the links to the media clips -- which is no fun. (Although, if the clips are all in the same folder on your drive, if you connect one clip, the program will recognize the others and automatically re-connect all of the clips for that project.)

Just downloaded 10.7 and it won't let me add videos to iTunes. Previous version worked fine. I tried to "add file to library" nothing. I've tried to drag the file....nothing. Just a red circle with a line through it. Any suggestions?

Premiere Elements 7: Toggle Take Audio and Video

In Premiere Elements 2, when you dragged a video/audio clip into the "Clip" section of the Monitor, there was an icon at the bottom right of the Monitor named "Toggle Take Audio and Video". There were three variations from using that icon, just video dragged from Monitor "Clip" section, just audio dragged from Monitor "Clip" section or video and audio dragged from the Monitor 'Clip" section. At times, a Shift + S could be used in place of clicking that icon under the Monitor.
In Premiere Elements 4 and 7, I see no such icon for the intended use of just taking video without its audio to the Premiere Elements Timeline. If you go to Premiere Elements 4 or 7, Edit Menu/Keyboard Shortcuts/Application/Help, there is a shortcut there for "Toggle Take Audio and Video", "Take Video", and "Take Audio". If I use Shift +S for any one of them, I cannot get them to function.
I realize that the Preview Window of Premiere Elements 4 and 7 has taken on many of the functions of the Monitor "Clip" arrangement. But, I have tried Shift + S toggling with both the Premiere Elements 4 and 7 from the program's Monitor, Preview Window, Project View Media section without any of that working to bring just video or just audio to the Premiere Elements Timeline.
Does that feature still work in versions of Premiere Elements beyond Premiere Elements 2?
I would appreciate any comments on the matter.

Robert J. Johnston,
Thank you so much.
I have been laboring for hours trying to get these keyboard shortcuts to work in Premiere Elements 4 and 7. My reasoning was why would they be there if they did not work and I must be overlooking something critical.
