Premiere Pro 2.0 Render Farm Issues

Hi, 
I have a desktop and a laptop connected to each other using cat5 cable and a Linksys router. Each has a copy of Premiere Pro 2.0 and  FrameServer. I have a test movie that I would like to render on the farm. I exported the movie from my desktop to FrameServer. I then connected to the desktop from the laptop and began to receive the movie. But I can't render it on my desktop. I tried to connect to 127.0.0.1 using the FrameServer client, and it says that it's connected to two clients, but no frames are served to the desktop -- only the laptop. On another note, whenever I switch windows the rendering stops completely. There aren't any error messages and the program continues to run. It just says that there are zero frames being served. Here are my specs:
Desktop
Windows XP Professional SP3
AMD Athlon 7750 dual core, 2.7 GHz
4 GB RAM
ASUS EAH4670
Laptop
Windows Vista Business SP2
Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.5 GHz
4 GB RAM
ATI Radeon 3400
If it's a FrameServer issue, I'd be happy to try another program. I have Autodesk Maya and Combustion. Would their copy of Mental Ray or Backburner work with Premiere?
Thanks for any help,
Richard

I share files with the Vista laptop. They start to transfer frames in this case, but the transfer stops if I try to do something else on the desktop. I'm trying to connect to my own desktop, as well, to use it to render. But it won't transfer frames to itself, even though it says that it's connected to the local host.

  • Premiere Pro "3 frame" render preview glitch

    When I create a render preview in Premiere Pro, sometimes the render preview renders the same frame for three consecutive frames. In other words, after the render preview is complete, the render preview creates three consecutive frames that are the same, and then moves on to the fourth frame. It looks like a jump cut where there is none. this costs me a lot of time, since to fix it I have to unrender and then rerender my render preview.
    How can I avoid this problem?

    Hey Ann, I know that deleting the render files and rerendering will work. But this costs me a lot of time.
    Is there a way to avoid this glitch in the first place?
    It happens quite often. Am I doing something to cause this glitch?

  • Premiere Pro CC Closed Captions format issues on render

    I have added closed captions to my Premiere Pro project — took bloody ages — and all looks and runs great within the project. Simple white captions over the video.
    Although, when I render the video out with the closed captions embedded within the video, cirtain captions seem to have slightly "dodgy" formatting when played back in quicktime player.
    Some sections of the captions have a black backgroun on and some do not. As I previously mentioned the captions are all fine within the project. It just seems to happen on the render file… Has anyone any ideas why this could be?
    Have attached a few screens of the issue I am finding…
    http://d.pr/i/lVI2
    http://d.pr/i/8iin

    When you make a change to the size of the QuickTime window, does the problem go away?
    If the answer is "no", I'd try a few things:
    -- Check to see if the frame rate of the closed captioning matches the frame rate of the source clip -- this is important
    -- Export matching the exact framerate of the closed captioning and clip and see how this looks
    -- Try exporting out to different frame rates and see if the problem still happens
    -- See if this problem in playback happens with other external players
    -- Update the QuickTime player and see if it still happens
    -- Reimport the exported problem file into PPRO and see if the playback issue happen there
    Then let me know what the results are.

  • New Mac Pro / Premiere Pro CC / Open CL - Known issue??

    Hi all
    I've been using Premiere Pro CC on a new Mac Pro since it was delivered in January.  After some initial teething issues and system crashes everything was running VERY nicely until the last update (build 33) but since then I have been encountering all kinds of issues.
    PP is now constantly freezing and crashing not only the software itself but the entire system requiring a reboot.  Whenever I need to render I get all kinds of weird and wonderful glitches in the images and I've had to turn off GPU accel through Open CL just to get the system workable again.
    So my question - are these known issues with build 33 or is something else going on??
    Another issue unrelated to Open CL (i think) is that XML import / export now appears to be bugged to the point of being unusable.  Very very frustrating!

    Hi simonspear,
    Please check the forum discussion which states the same issue. Hope it helps.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 Playback and Performance Issues

    I upgraded (2) separate editing work stations to CS5 from CS4 about a month ago. I moved from 4 to 5 to try and get rid of some problems which both work stations were encountering.
    The problems since the upgrade are similiar: playback from timeline has intermittent audio drop out and video going to black during playback, (new one)-video locked up but audio kept playing-system hung and had to be rebooted.
    Also, when clicking around on the timeline or scrubbing the timeline, Premiere crashes.
    This type of performance on playout or timeline usage is consistent on both machines which have indentical setups and builds. None of this happens all the time but happens enough to causes problems with workflow. We edit on the work stations, dub files to playback system for air, and use a shared server to move files back and forth as needed but files are always stored locally instead of using straight from server.
    These machines are:
    Premiere Pro CS5.02
    OS  WIndows 7 Pro 64 bit
    12 GB Ram, DDR3-1333 (6-2GB modules)
    CPU Intel Xeon Quad Core [email protected] GHZ, 2 processors, 8 MB Cache

    (3) 1 TB SATA 2 hard drives, 7200RPM, 32 MC (3 TB, RAID0 STorage) 2.16 TB of space avail
    Nvidia GE Force 9800 GT Graphics card, DUAL DVI, 1 GB
    REaltek High Def Audio, Drivers 6.0.1.5953
    (1) monitor in use
    output of system runs to ADVC-700 breakout box to feed playback system
    I have all of my software installed on C: (309 GB of 500 GB avail)
    I have all of my videos files stored on D: (Raid Storage with 2.16 TB of 3 TB avail)
    The only changes I've made since installing CS5 would be to change the auto save from 20 minutes to 60 minutes. Don't know if an auto save would cause an issue on playback as I've noted above.
    I'm not a computer whiz by any stretch of the imagination but I can follow directions if given for testing/eval.

    Do the PPBM5 Benchmark and send the results to me by PM, in addition to sending the results to Bill as indicated. I'll have a look at what might be going on here.

  • Premiere Pro 6 and Audition Audio issues with Kona Lhi

    Hello,
       When I have Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe Audition open at the same time, and I send an audio clip from Premiere Pro to Audition for editing, I have no sound in Audition. If I have only one of these programs open, the audio works fine in both. Since these programs are linked together it is essential that I have audio in both, even though, both programs are open. Is there a driver fix or some other way to get Premiere Pro to release the Kona Card LHi when switching to Audition? I am using a Mac Pro 2 x 2.4 6-core 24MB Ram 1333 DDR3 and Quadro 4000 with Kona Lhi Drivers 10.4.4 with Adobe presets.
    Thanks,
    Dunamis Starr | TV Department

    Hello Dunamis,
    Unfortunately this is a known issue with the Kona card. I know this is something they would like to fix but I'm uncertain on the timeframe. 
    There are times when this workflow will work without issue but when it goes into the bad state you will need to quit the apps.

  • Premiere Pro CS5.5 -very strange issue with the color tones and Preview-

    I deal with a very strange and not usual problem in Premiere Pro CS5.5 (also the version CS5). What I try to do is just a simple color correction. The problem occurs when I try to use Three Way Color Corrector but it happens with Fast Color Corrector also.
    When applying the Three-Way Color Correction and without changing anything else (just applying), can be seen in the preview of the soft how sudden changes in color tones. For example, the gray tone becomes a little more green, but also can be seen very easy a change in the other color tones too. In fact even RGB Parade show the same thing. This is very, very strange and unacceptable and saw that it happens when trying to use Colorista II too.
    I tried the same thing in Sony Vegas Pro 11 and I downloaded the trial version of Edius 6 to convince me if the same thing happens. Not! In Sony Vegas and Edius everything is working correctly, I have not experienced these problems in the preview's of this 2 others softs.
    This issue is very annoying because every possible color correction is based on what we see in the preview and if in this preview the tones are seen altered realize that can not make a decent color correction. So what happens here?!? I uploaded a small video demonstration to see very clearly about what I'm talking. You can see in the next link: http://vimeo.com/35317616

    Yes Jim, you're right. No changes in the scopes when one just apply RGB Curves, Fast Color Corrector, RGB Color Corrector  or the Three way Color Corrector (last three thanks to the new update 6.03). I already wrote that Adobe team has been able to fix this bug for some of the tools/effects.
    But Brightness&Contrast? Change Color? Color Balance? Levels? MBLooks? Twixtor? Colorista II? Does it seem normally that all scopes or just one of them jump when you just apply one of these effects/tools? Not to say that in some situations even the tones change (especially in shadows&midtones).
    You say this is something "very minimal". I say it is not so. I don't find normally to make a very detalied CC with Three way Color Corrector and then when applying Colorista/MBLooks, for example, the scopes jump and inclusively some tones may be influenced. And I left clear examples in this topic where you can see that this is possible. I don't know if this is "very minimal" or not, but is really so impossible to edit in Premiere without this "very minimal" issue?!? How can it be possible in other softs (Edius, Media Composer, Vegas Pro) and in Premiere not?!?
    One more thing: many of us use intermediate codecs in the editing process. Do you find normally that a AVCHD video have the lumninance at approximately 110IRE, to export it directly to Cineform and then import it in Premiere, and the waveform shows the luminance at 100IRE?!? How is this possible?!? So the AVCHD video have a 110IRE luminance, you convert this video to Cineform without changing anything, and then this Cineform video have the luminance at 100IRE?!? And anyone can verify this example.
    So, how can one trust in this soft?!?

  • Premiere Pro and R9 290 OpenCL Issues

Everything works just fine on them I can use OpenCL mercury playback etc... but if I update to any newer driver 14.12 Omega, or 15.4 Beta when I try to use GPU acceleration in Premiere Pro i see a black screen. Timeline plays and sound plays but no video.
    If i go to export the timeline AME is able to use OpenCL to export it and I see load on my GPUs... Why cant I figure out how to get Adobe Premiere to show the video?
    Things I have tired:
    Reimaging / Reinstalling Win 7 and Win 8.1 both work on 14.11.2 (OpenCL 1.2) neither work on 14.12 or 15.4 (OpenCL 2.0).
    Disabling OpenCL GPU playback works, but then i have to deal with rendering and poor performance
    Uninstalling and Reinstalling CC 2014, newest updates etc...
    Flash both video cards back to stock bios.

  • Premiere Pro CC + Multichannel Audio Export issues?

    Currently I need to deliver 6 Channels of 5.1 audio mixed needs to be paralled with film and add Closed Caption and export as QT (Pro Res 422(HQ) with 6 Channels of Audio).
    When I Try to export from Premiere Pro CC, I was asked combine 1+2, 3+4, 5+6 and when I export get 7 Channels with 3 stereo pairs.
    Is it not possible to export 6 Channels only export as individual tracks along with Video in a QuickTime Export. Also have option only to select 5 or 7 Channels rather than my 6 channels why?
    Attached screenshot for reference.

    I know this thread is old but I figured I'd answer anyway if anyone comes across this post with the same question.
    Premiere Pro will still export 6 uncompressed channels of audio when you select 5.1.
    It doesn't bother giving you the option for a 6 channel QT file because it is the same as 5.1.
    I had the same issue a while ago where I wanted to export a ProRes HQ file with 6 channels of audio but instead of 5.1, it was Lt-Rt (1-2), M&E (3-4), SOT (5-6). I just selected 5.1 when exporting then configure the channels as mono in Quicktime 7 Pro. Works perfectly.

  • Why do Encore CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 have intermittant Sync issues?

    I am noticing that Encore CS5 is "buggy" regarding sync issues with material edited by Womble and Corel Video Studio and I am guessing other programs as well?
    In high definition I take AVCHD and  edit in Corel Video Studio.  If I leave the project as one single 42 minute segment and import this asset into Encore CS5, more often than not there are bad sync issues.  To get around this I have to divide the 42 minute project into approximately 6 smaller ones- Each smaller asset ends where I had done the editing.  Encore does not have any problems now with these 6 smaller assets.
    In standard definition I edit in Womble and export as a MPEG2 Program.  Sometimes Encore has a problem with the asset sync and sometimes it does not.  (I am guessing about 20% of my assets end up with a problem).  The same asset if brought into TMP or brought back into Womble does not have any sync issue.  If brought into Premiere Pro CS5 it will exhibit the same behavior as Encore- If Encore has a sync problem, so will Premiere Pro.  So to get around this I then have to go back to the original womble file and break it up into smaller pieces, at every edit point I cut and export the smaller file just after the end of the transition I applied.  With a 6 hour project I may end up with dozens of small files to get around this problem- not very efficient.
    Any ideas how to fix this or why Encore is so buggy?  Would moving the original assets around in Womble- example taking something that was at the end of the timeline and then moving it to the beginning cause these issues for Encore?   Or is there some other cause?
    Encore CS5
    Premiere Pro CS5
    Windows 7 64 BIT
    Quad core
    2.4 GHZ clock speed
    6GB memory
    150 GB free space on drive
    NVIDIA GEFORCE 8500 card

    I've used VideoReDo in the past, which I believe has some similar strategies to Womble.  I found when I tested streams, that there were often problems in the source streams, and that the fix was not 100 percent.
    You may also find such files that are not 100 percent the same length video to audio.
    In any event, the possibility other than Encore being buggy is that the files you are bringing in have problems when Encore tries to validate them.  I'm not saying Encore doesn't have its problems, but clean mpeg files do not have sync issues ordinarily.
    For some scenarios, I like your workflow (edit mpeg files in a frame accurate mpeg editor that is not retranscoding the whole file), but the results are often not consistent.
    You don't say, and I would certainly look at, the nature of the audio stream you are using.  I can not tell you what the problems are, but some streams just do not edit well, even though they may play back okay in some players, but still have issues in Encore and/or Premiere.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 - playback and C300 issues

    Hi,
    I seem to be having an issue with Premiere Pro playback.
    At the moment, I'm looking through a rough assemble I've done on a PPro sequence and then the playback will start getting choppy. The only solution seems to be rebooting PPro, which is obviously very frustrating. The footage is C300 files, stored on my RAID. Why is this happening?
    My system details are as follows:
    MBP early 2011, 16GB RAM, 512 GB SSD
    6TB Pegasus R6 RAID connected via Thunderbolt
    30" ACD
    Mac OS 10.7.4 , PPro 6.0.1
    I use a 2-screen setup, so the 30" monitor will have the PPro tools and seq etc, whilst I use the 17" MBP screen as a viewing monitor.
    Another issue I had which is more annoying that anything is that when I imported the rushes from my C300, PPro decided to import a fairly long (80") interview as loads of separate .MXF files RATHER than joining them together, which FCP seemed to have no problem in doing...How do I sort that out?
    Thanks

    I am having precisely the same problem as bricklaneeditor, and have exactly the same setup: MBP early 2011, 16GB RAM, 512 GB SSD,
    30" ACD, Mac OS 10.7.4 , PPro 6.0.1
    Indeed, a restart of Premiere Pro always fixes the problem -- for a while.  I've also seen similar behavior in Media Composer 6.0.1 once or twice so am wondering whether it's an issue with this machine/OS, as the playback software architectures are so different on those two NLE's. 
    I should also mention that the problem is not isolated to any particular file format -- have seen it with timelines containing 7D footage, HDV and ProRes files.  
    I strongly suspect some sort of problem on either Apple's or Adobe's end with the GPU in this machine, as it is ATI and not Nvidia -- and is, as far as I know, the only non-CUDA GPU, at least on the Mac side, certified to work with the CS6 Mercury Playback Engine.   
    Also wondering whether an over-the-top or a clean install of Mountain Lion might shake things up enough to make a difference.  (Otherwise I'm in no big hurry to upgrade my OS.)  Is anyone seeing this problem with PPro under 10.8?  Might be worth installing 10.8 over an external HDD clone of the System drive and booting temporarily from the clone just to see if the problem persists in Premiere.  
    Anyone have any thoughts on these possibilities?

  • Premiere Pro CC Timeline render in and out save problem

    Hello,
    I have a problem with the save of the timeline. After I render the sequence in and out, I'm saving the project and close Premiere Pro CC. When I'm opening the project, the sequence isn't rendered. What should I do?
    I'm running on Windows 7 and I have Premiere Pro 8.1.0 (81) Build !  I found out that not just on this version of Premiere Pro CC this problem happens. Before I reinstalled my windows, I had Premiere Pro CC but I didn't have this problem, just after reinstall.
    Hopefully you guys can help me. I think I have to mention that sometimes when I change desktop icons position, after Windows restart they aren't in the same place.
    Thanks!

    I would be willing to bet the video is recorded as VFR, variable frame rate ... in other words, it creates more frames per second when it needs to for keeping up with screen changes, and less when it doesn't see much changing on your screen. This saves bandwidth of course, BUT ... PrPro is not setup to work well with VFR footage, it really needs CFR, constant FR. So ... highly recommended if your capture program doesn't allow setting CFR is the free program "Handbrake", which you can google for. Use that to convert the footage to CFR, then import that into PrPro.

  • Premiere Pro doesn't render .mov file properly

    In Premiere Pro 1.5, I drop any .MOV on the timeline. When I play it back it shows about 1 frame for every 10. The sound is ok. When I inspect the file properties it shows 2.99 fps rather than 29.97 like it should.
    Also, I get the same choppy behavior in the quicktime player. The file does play ok on 1) other windows computers (quicktime) and 2) through a freeware player called VLC on the "problem" computer.
    I have reinstalled quicktime. version is 7.3.1

    Premiere Pro can have issues with regard to .mp3 files.  It is best to convert them to .wav files in either Audition or the free Audacity and then bring them into Premiere Pro.

  • Premiere Pro CC - MPEG2-DVD export issues

    I have two projects that I am attempting to export using MPEG2-DVD, both exports begin to playback correctly but about half way through the video begins cutting out, flashing white and and green, and then cuts to completely green. Also the sequence length is 25:18, and after export it is 18:05. Export preset for MPEG2-DVD was NTSC 23.976p Wide, nothing else changed. I also tried exporting with Media Encoder, with the same results.
    Video was shot with Canon DSLR and GoPro at 24p. Project is to 23.976fps. Video effects added in sequence are Warp Stabilizer, Lumetri looks, Brightness & Contrast, and Three-Way Color Corrector. I disabled all effects, exported with same settings as before, video was at the same shortened length, but the white and green coloring is gone.
    Any ideas of why the video effects might be distorting the color? And why the time is dropping from 25:18 to 18:05?

When we export in MPEG-2 format from Premier Pro though we get the green and white lines when broadcasting. Right now we're having to export it in a different format, and then use a separate program to convert it to MPEG-2.
