Premiere Stops Dead

Boy, I think I've posted more over the past month than the past year. So here's one more and I hope this does it for a while. Background: I'm on Windows 7, i7 960, 12 GB RAM, GTX 285. For playback to my video monitor I'm using a Matrox mini w/Max. I reinstalled CS5 recently, along with the Matrox utilities for the Max. Since then, Premiere has taken on the habit of stopping dead in the middle of playing back a timeline. Then the white window of death opens, telling me Premiere has encountered a problem and is shutting down, which it does. I have no idea what the problem is and am wondering if anyone can suggest how to troubleshoot this. I will say my GTX 285 does not have the latest driver and I'm wondering if I should download and install that. Last I looked, the GTX 285 driver update seemed mainly to relate to features for gaming, so I'm not sure that'll benefit me. I'm at the tail end of a project, so I may hobble along and then do a complete reinstall (again) and keep my fingers crossed. Thanks in advance for any thoughts about this. Cheers, Steve

My best advice would be to remove the Matrox completely - hardware, drivers, everything.  And then light some incense and pray to videeo gods that you haven't offended them for your indiscretion.
Once that is done, jump on the bandwagon-------->http://forums.adobe.com/thread/900221?tstart=0

  • Premiere stops when opening tab "Adobe Media Encoder"

    Working with Premiere CS3
    When I want to export movie to flv, I open File-> Export-> Adobe Media Encoder
    Then I have to select, but since a few days when I click the Adobe Media Encoder button, Premiere stops and is out of service.
    When I start up Premiere again, it repeats.
    Yesterday I've downloaded Quicktime (of a CD which needed it for playing).
    But after uninstall Quicktime, the problem is still there.
    So I've set back the date to Wednesday (two days ago) but nothing will help.
    How can I solve this problem?

    More information would be very useful. This ARTICLE will give you tips on what types of info are needed, and how to gather some of it.
    Good luck,

  • Since I work with a backup-projectfile, premiere stops working reporting a 'debug event'

    Hello,
    Can somebody tell me what the next dubug event means and what to do about it...
    'Premiere elements has encountered an error.
    C:\PRE12\mail\MediaCore\audiorender\API\inc\audiobuffer/audioSubBuffer.I'
    Because premiere stopped working a sudden moment I opened the backup folder and used - for the first time since I work with premiere - the back up file to work with. Since then premiere shuts down every time after a minute or so on this particular project.
    By the way: it is a very small project so it cannot be the capacity of my (brand new top end ) lap top.
    I work with the same settings, files, camera, laptop etc as always and this is the first time I encounter this problem.
    So what to do?
    Thanks
    ps.
    - premiere 12
    - windows 8

    Hi,
    Can you try this simple step and see if it works:
    Before importing the footage, go to File > Project settings > General and change the video renderer to Mercury Playback Engine software only. Select "Delete Previews" after clicking on OK. Then import the footage.
    Thanks,
    Rameez

  • Aggregated project stopping dead at the exact same spot-Cap5

    at a recent offsite training, a project stopped loading approximately half way through at exactly the same place for everyone. We were accessing via the web and as the segments would steadily appear in the TOC, they all stopped loading at the same point. When completing the last loaded segment, there would be no movement to the next segment because it simply wasn't there. The connection was fast enough to eventually load the entire project, as it worked fine from my laptop. I had not seen this problem elsewhere, so it must be a local setting on the machines at this facility, but I can't figure out what it would be.
    I loaded the files to the desktops and the project ran fine locally, but when accessing from the web, it literally stopped dead at the same point for everyone.
    Thoughts?

    Actually I have come across the reason that pixel shows up:
    Apparently it resembles the top left corner of a DivX video on another tab. I have opened a video twice and scrolled to different positions on that page, and opening a third page that doesn't contain any DivX video shows multiple of these dots there.
    I have attached a partial screenshot showing those particular two pixels, marked in green.

  • Elements and Premiere stopped working

    Last week I purchased Elements 8.0 and Premiere (Windows 7), the install went perfect but suddenly both programs only show the tutorials after start-up. There is no option to stop the tutorial, and both programs are greyed out. Probably a re-install will do the trick, but I just organized a thousand pics last week and I don't want to loose days of work

    Reinstalling PSE never deletes your catalog.

  • Premiere stops playing

    I'm running Mac Pro 4,1, OS 10.6.8, 2.66 quad core.  I have an SSD as my system disk, and two 500 Gb HDD striped as my media disk.  Footage is AVCHD, 1080p 24p from a Canon C100. Any time I leave Premiere, for instance to check e-mail or look something up on the web (which I do often because I'm new to Adobe, I'm transitioning from FCP), when I return to Premiere nothing plays back, either the sequence or a clip in the source monitor.  Other functions seem to work, I can still edit, just can't play anything.  I have to quit and restart, which fixes it, but that's a very inconvenient problem. 

    Moved from Cloud forum to Premiere Pro forum where you'll probably get a better response from PP users

  • In last 62 hours cursor stopped dead more than 20 times; there was no way out, except to turn off computer

    For last 3 days the problem with Firefox (but not with IE, for example) is as follows:
    in the middle of almost every session the cursor suddenly stops; there is no reaction
    to all my efforts to get it to move. The only way out is to press the button and to turn off
    the computer. The problem is not connected with any particular website.
    For the first time the cursor stopped some months ago. I did not know what to do, how
    "to make" Firefox to react. Probably I could use the keyboard somehow... But I use a
    portable computer, and I am still a very unskilled user. (I use the keyboard only for
    writing ). Afterwards I had the problem again just a couple of times - till the October
    the 18. It started without any obvious reason. I must stress once again: the problem
    is not connected any particular website. For example: to-day the cursor stopped
    while I was looking through my e-mail.

  • Adobe premiere stopped importing video

    I haven't used my Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 for several months. I used it the other day to capture video and then when I tried to import it into a new project it I saw no indication that it actually did it. The screen format seems to look different too with only one monitor to view the video and not two. Nothing shows up on the left side bar with the imported video although it seems to go through the action of importing without any notices coming up to say that it isn't working. Has anyone had this happen or know how to resolve the issue? I have some projects I really need to edit and I can't get it working. Thanks so much!

    You need to create a sequence; the Timeline panel is what hold a sequence, but it's not the sequence itself. Create a new sequence by going to File > New > Sequence and choosing a preset that matches your footage, or by dragging one of your footage items to the New Item button at the bottom of the Project Panel. That process will create a new sequence that matches your footage parameters and will drop the clip into it; you can add other clips and edit as you like then.

  • Premiere stopped playing timeline and clips

    Hi all, been working on a Premiere Pro CC 2014 project over the weekend. Worked fine yesterday...today, the timeline won't play, nor will clips in the source window, video or audio. I've troubleshooted the drives, rebuilt directories; repaired permissions; checked audio hardware, etc., all to no avail. The media shows up in both windows as online, I can see the previews fine, but playhead will not move when I hit the space bar or press the play button. I can scrub through the timeline. There are no ins or outs or markers in the timeline sequence. Has anyone had this issue recently on the current version of Premiere CC 2014? I'm on a Macbook Pro 13", Mavericks 10.9.4. This installation has worked flawlessly since I switched to Premiere in January, until today. Because, of course, deadline. :-(

    Yikes. After hours of troubleshooting, I tore apart the rig, started building putting it back together, and discovered my audio interface (MOTU MicroBook II) was not getting enough juice from a hub. I gave it its own port, and now I'm back up and running.

  • Download stopped dead

    Hey all, hope someone can steer me in the right direction
    Upgraded to 9.2 (because i 'had' to download the tv show i wanted. So i do so, then purchase and start to download the show. It only gets 16.9MB, then stops, says downloading, but no.
    I have deleted, cleared, restarted, etc. No dice!!
    Can anyone help ?
    Thanks alot!

    Sorry I can't help, but I have the same problem (only started today).
    We have downloaded movies and TV shows with no problems, but today I got most of the way through downloading a movie and the download speed has dropped off to almost nothing. I went from 10 mins left to download to 13 hours in the space of about 1 minute.
    Quiting iTunes and restarting the computer allows the normal download speed to return when reopening iTunes, but only for about 10-15 seconds and then the time left to download climbs again. Very frustrating!!!

    nevermind i figured it out...it seems that i had to get ride of the second class and add it to the first file...then u wouldn't have to send an object to receive methods from DrawPanel...and the enter button just had to called with the sizemodifier to change the size and also to setText() in the textField area......"Its the small things in life that kill u......"
    if anyone has any feed back on my code please feel free to rip it open..

  • Premiere Pro CC 2014 stops responding constantly--Adobe QT32 stops responding first

    Since updating to Premiere Pro 2014, I can't spend more than about 45 minutes editing before Premiere stops responding. Usually in the middle of playback, or while scrubbing. Sometimes the audio will continue playing after the application becomes unresponsive. Every single time, Adobe QT32 Server has stopped responding before the rest of the application does.
    Furthermore, once Adobe QT32 has stopped responding, Premiere cannot close, requiring a 'force quit' every time. Force quitting Adobe QT 32 Server does nothing.
    Please advise. CC is expensive and Premiere Pro is almost unusable at the moment.

    Here's an interesting article claiming this was a problem in AE 2012.  I do think removing all of the QT codec components makes a difference as I put several back in and as soon as I sent my previously functioning sequence to export, QT32 crashed.

  • Premiere Pro CC 2014 Stops Responding When Going From One Project To Another

    I'm running Pr CC 2014.2 - 8.2.0 (65) build - on Windows 8.1 (don't get me started.)  I can work in a single project all day with no problems whatsoever.  But if I have to switch to another project, Premiere stops responding.  It won't let me End Task and re-open Premiere, I have to reboot.  This happens each time I have to switch projects.  I uninstalled and reinstalled Premiere to no avail.  I've tolerated it for a couple of months now but it's getting to the point where I can't anymore.
    Help, anyone?

    Hi,
    Logon OWA and check if the voicemails can be played fine, make sure the mails are good.
    If you have installed the improper drivers for any devices or hardwares, this kind of issue may occur. Actually some devices which seem to have nothing to do with the issue may also be the culprit, like a printer or some audio devices in this case.
    Try restore the system to an earlier date if you have backup.
    If you have got the logs, you may post the complete logs here, it may help to determine the cause of the issue.
    Regards,

    Thank you very much for your reply. I could access in OWA successfully with a quick response and used this as a workaround. There was not too many logs to go from.
    It looks like there was a server that was decommissioned around 6 months ago and just a test thought I would start this up to see if our voicemail server had any relationship with it - once I started this server up, voicemails
    were opening quickly will all users. I am not sure if our voicemail  software (Cisco Unity) is pointing to our old server or if has anything to do with DNS entries but will need to dive into this further as we cannot have the old server online for too
    much longer.
    If anyone would have an inclining as to what this could be, please let me know.
    Thanks again.
