Premiere Pro - Insufficient Media Error - Please help!

Hi, everyone!
I'm working in Adobe Premiere Pro (CS3), taking 3 thirty second video clips, and putting them together, along with an audio track, to make a 1:30 video background with music.
I'm trying to apply a short cross dissolve to each of the video clips. When I do, I get an error message that there is insufficient media and some frames will be repeated.
This is a mystery to me, because each of the thirty second clips is clearly longer than the cross dissolve transition.
The transitions seem to play fine in Premiere, but do not appear to show up in any render so far (I've tried .avi, .mov, and .wmv)
Any idea why I might be getting this error, and how I can correct the problem?

Telling him to go study video editing is not helpful at all.
That depends. If he does actually go off and study video and can then perform the task better, then it really was helpful.
I've used a number of other pro video editing programs and I've never had to do this in order to make a cross dissolve work
Yes, you have. Any proper transition needs handles. This is a universal concept, and applies to all editors, all media, and all software programs. Some programs, Premiere included, may try and 'cheat' the transition by repeating frames or with some other method, but that is not then a proper transition.
Heck even older versions of Premiere didn't require this step.
Yes, they have. All NLEs always have, and always will.
telling someone to go read the manual or go learn video editing is not what these forums are for
I would argue that Premiere Pro, and hence these forums, are for those who have already learned video editing.
First lean, then do. This applies to any activity. Those who try and skip step one and show up here looking for help do often meet with some backlash.

Why is PP CS 3 worse than Premiere Pro 1.0? Please help

I have just bought the CS3 Master Collection. With PP 1.0 I could add a transition beetween two clips, apply the proc amp filter for color correction and even add a title with motion. In highest quality RT mode it would look very good on the NTSC monitor. It actually looked as good as it would fully rendered. Now if I apply any color correction filter I get pixilated artifacts when there is movement (a person waving there hands). Even if I add a simple title the video below the title looks awful. RT previews used to look very clean in the NTSC monitor. Could the CS3 bundles have a serious bug in them? I have thought of everything and can not get PP CS3 to work half as good as version 1.0. What gives? Any info would help.

I agree that the The Pentium D was the actual name but Pentium D CPUs are based of the P 4 netburst achitecture. That was stated even by Intel and many magazines. In other words they are not P2, P3 or even a Core 2 architecture. So yes I can call a Pentium D a Dual Core Pentium 4. That is infact what it is. I can not call it Dual Core Pentium 3. There is no dual core P3.
[edit] Presler
The last generation of Pentium D branded processors was the Presler identified by the product code 80553, and made of two 65 nm-process cores found also in Pentium 4 branded Cedar Mill CPUs. The Presler single package also comprised two single-core dies next to each other increasing its processing capability over single-core CPUs branded Pentium 4. The Presler was supported by the same chipsets as the Smithfield. It was produced using 65 nm technology similar to the Yonah. The Presler communicated with the system using an 800 MT/s FSB, and its two cores communicated also using the FSB, just as in the Smithfield. The Presler also included VT (Virtualization Technology, aka Vanderpool, although limited to the 9x0 models, and not in the 9x5 models), Intel 64, XD bit and EIST (Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology)[*]. The Presler was released in the first quarter of 2006 with a 2x2 MiB Level 2 cache. Its models included

Premiere Pro and Media Encoder crash while rendering H.264

Very recently, a problem's popped up where Premiere Pro and Media Encoder (CC) will crash while rendering H.264.
It's only while rendering H.264 - other formats seem to work fine.
And I don't mean that it returns an error, I mean it hard crashes with a Windows "Adobe Premiere Pro CC has stopped working" popup.
It doesn't crash at a consistent time during the render, even on the same project. Occasionally, it won't crash at all, but this is usually not the case.
I've tried disabling CUDA and my overclock to no avail. Please help!

On the topic of opening a project on the exact same version of Premiere Pro CC 2014 (yes it is definitely up to date, and the 2014 version), to overcome this export crash problem that ZachHinchy has brought up - you can't. Technically speaking, one should easily be able to open a Premiere Pro CC 2014 project from one system on another system running the exact same up to date, legitimate version of Premiere Pro CC 2014 without any kind of error. But for some reason, this has been disallowed(?) by Adobe. It has facepalm written all over it. Does anyone agree that this is at least a little bit silly?
I have tried exporting a Final Cut Pro XML from my project to try and open the sequence at uni on a Mac, so I can render my project when I finish my edit. It half works - the clips are there, but the sequence is gone - i.e. 12 hours of painstaking sequencing and micro-edits that had me at several points in time wanting to insert my hand through my monitor with enough force to make a large hole. I really cannot afford redo this sequence, as my assignment is due tomorrow, and I have to work at 6 oclock in the morning, so I also cannot afford to stay up till the early hours of tomorrow morning. Wish me luck that some miraculous event has taken place overnight that will somehow allow me to just open my project, on the same version of Premiere, on a Mac, without hassle. (Apple OS is not friendly to anything but its own selfish nature, so I am having doubts).
Adobe please, if you can do anything at all to help, you will save my assignment, and my faith will be restored. Otherwise, I'll just get my money back and buy Final Cut instead.
I cant even
If I find a way to fix either of these problems, I will post straight away.

Runtime Error, please help!

Hi,
I have installed the cs3 master collection on a new system (quad 2,4 ghz, 4GB ram, quadro fx1300, WIN XP 64bit, cineform aspect hd 5).
I opened a big ppro project which has been created with cs2 (i deleted all preview and cache files before). I saved the project to a different name.
Project structure:
65 Scenes embedded in Sequences embedded in a master sequence (master lenght: 110 Minutes).
The big Problem is:
When i click anywhere into the master sequence timeline, a "premiere pro debug event" error appears:
"[..\..\Src\AudioRender\AudioRenderContextConstructor.cpp-110]"
Premiere dissapears after i click "continue".
When i turn off the mastersequence audiotracks, this error does not show up.
And everything works fine when i go into an embedded sequence.
ALSO:
When i want to render some area in the timeline, Premiere wants to render the audio first. It hangs up at about 50 percent (always at the same point, but it is not possible to locate it) with the error message:
"Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Premiere Path..
This application has requested the runtime to terminate..."
Premiere dissaper after i click "ok"..
I tried:
To get this bugfix from Micrsoft, which should help with runtime errors, but they dont respond.
To install the Visual C++ runtime environment again.
To deactivate all unnecessary startup programs
To run ppro in compatibility mode
To change sound settings in and out of ppro
The event viewer description for this error:
"...faulting module msvcr80.dll..."
Please help me, if there is a solution..
David

Considering ppro´s memory managing problems with big projects i dont want to revert to 32bit.
I installed ppro cs2 and it works fine. And the memory problems i had with 32bit (even with 3gb switch on) are gone.
I dont have time to test now if the problem with cs3 was only caused by the imported cs2 project. I will post it next days.

Premiere Pro 6.02: Error/Freeze when moving clips

After loosing media connections in a current project (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4678615#4678615) here's my next big problem with Premiere Pro 6.02. As soon as I try to move certain clips in a sequence, I get this error message and Premiere Pro freezes:
These clips play fine, but as soon as I try to move them: bang!
I de-installed and re-installed Premiere Pro, but that did not help.

HFS+ Journaled has absolutely no positive effect on individual volumes. It helps data recovery with raid volumes and the OS drive with Time Machine. HFS+ Journaled however does cause allot of issues due to the Meta Data applied to the file system and adds significant performance degrading to drive requests in general. People who use HFS+ Journaled are simply creating far more failure points that will effect their editing experience and time frames. Honestly I see allot of Meta Data based issues on the Mac side in this forum and I would be willing to bet most would go away if the Drives would be formatted to HFS+ Non Journaled and then create a new master directory to copy the data back into to break the Meta Data ties in the volume table. Whether clients follow that advice is up to them. However people cannot hold Adobe at fault for issues caused by partition tables and OS specific functions when there are clear ways those are avoided. If clients are passing Storage media to others that use PC then they definitely want those media formatted HFS+ Non Journaled because right now Mac Drive has allot of issues with that. This is a clear message, to avoid failure follow recommended configuration policies.

Windows - No Disk Error - Please help!
Hi,
I have the following set up:
* Lenovo T-61p
* Windows XP Pro, SP 3
* HP Photosmart 8250 printer (with nothing plugged into the various card readers, and USB slot in the printer)
I am getting the following error:
Windows - No Disk
Exception Processing Message 0xc0000013 Parameters 0x75CE023C
0x84C40C84 0x75CE023C
I have done a lof experimenting and thru process of elimination, and believe I have determined that this only happens when the HP Photosmart 8250 printer is plugged in to the USB slot of the computer.
I can stop it from happening by safely removing hardware, and removing the drive that the 8250 creates on your computer when you plug it in. In my case, this is drive E. I'm guessing if there was something in the the various card readers, and USB slot in the printer, that's what those would be, but I don't those use those functions of the printer.
I understand there is more at work than simply the printer, because I did not used to get this error, so some software changed as well, that is scanning all ports, and finding a drive that has no disk, and producing the error.
A simple google search finds a lot people all over the world having this problem, and are solving it in different ways, because the suspected source is different: Norton, HP, etc.
I have tried everything I have read, and the only thing that works was my own idea, of manually safely removing the drive the printer creates each time I plug in the printer.
Anyone every any better, more permanent solutions? Or know what the real root of the problem is? What is scanning all the drives and being showing an error message because it found an empty drive?
Thanks and Happy Holidays/New Year!

I've been getting the same error on my 4G nano for the past week. I've had my nano for about a month and the first few weeks were fine. Tried it on 2 different computers (Vista and XP) and same problem. Tried it on a 3rd (XP) and it started ok. Problem started coming back after a day.
I was able to find a quick fix though. I noticed that sometimes the message says something like "iexplore.exe... no disk..." even if I don't even use IE. What I do is end iexplore.exe on task manager before running iTunes and syncing my nano. I don't get the error whenever I do this, but one drawback is that the contents of my nano suddenly pops up in a window - even when disk use is not enabled.
I've reset/restored my nano dozens and dozens of times to make sure it's clean. Leads me to believe it's a driver issue. Either that or I have a friggin malware problem I can't seem to find.
I'll be posting updates every now and then. I'm no expert so I'm hoping an Apple expert also steps in to give some input.

.wmv's getting cut in half horizontally inside Premiere Pro, AE, Media Encoder...

Hello everyone! I'm having an issue using .WMV's within Premiere Pro, AE, and the Media Encoder. Whenever I open the image in a sequence or the source window, the image is cut in half horizontally (see pic below). I brought in an MP4 and had no issues so at the moment I think I have narrowed down to strictly a .WMV problem. The file plays perfectly fine in realtime; audio sounds great, picture (of what I can see) looks good; I am just missing the top half of any WMV file hehe. I have tried the WMV inside AE as well but have the same issue. I also tried to export the WMV with Media Encoder but it exports the WMV cut in half no matter what format I tell it to conver the file to..
My Premiere Pro, AE, and Media Encoder are fully up to date; my Nvidia 660 Ti is up to date; I just installed latest Windows 7 codec package; Just installed newest Windows 7 x64 updates.
Also, this is a big one to note...This is the first time I have used Premiere Pro/AE/Media Encoder on this system. I just built this PC about 1 month ago and have had 0 problems with it across other programs (Photoshop, 3ds max, etc..) I just recently installed Premiere, AE, Media Encoder on it and am running into this problem upon my first bootup of Premiere/AE/Media Encoder.

It appears that Microsoft has issued the fixed update:

Premiere Pro CS3 Media Encoder question...

Hi,
I got a question regarding the Premiere Pro CS3 Media Encoder.
I am converting a sequence in Premiere Pro CS3 which contains footage from a '.vob' file which is NTSC, 720x480, 16:9 to a '.flv' file.
Now I'm doing this via Premiere Pro CS3 Media Encoder and it let's me choose the Width & Height but there is no checkbox to keep the proportions - which I find is very, very inconvenient...
So if I wanna convert this to a .flv file which is 400 high, the width should be 600, right ?
Also, there is no way to specify to keep the 16:9 aspect ratio.
Is that done automatically or how/where can I specify it ?
Thanx for your help in advance !
Mike

If you want 16:9. you need to consider that the lower number should probably be divisible by 72. So, if you want something about 600 wide, I would use 360 for the lower number which gives you a frame size of 640X360
When divisible by 72, it is evenly divisible by both 8, which is great for encoders, and 9, which is the frame ratio you want.
Just choose square pixels and you will be fine.
