Render Queue keeps exporting 1 single frame

I have been trying to be a big boy and exporting image sequences as my master sequence, but i have been having this issue lately with targa sequences. I press render, the program hangs (i get a beach ball) and then, TWINK, the render ends rendering one frame: the first frame. The workbar is set for the entire comp. I thought it might be something with time machine, so i excluded Adobe products from being scanned by it. Sometimes rebooting the program helps. I have tried other image sequence files types, and this happens to them as well. I export as a H264m and it works. I wonder what i am doing wrong.
Macpro 4,1.
Intel Quad Core
8GB memory
Geforce GT 120

i must have some setting wrong.
Yes, that setting is called Mac. Cheap Apple bashing aside, consider the facts: If different output formats yield the same behavior, then it cannot be that, can it? So the fault is with the source footage or indeed some setting or even an effect. In turn therefore the only logical conclusion is: When rendering to H.264 it only works, because the program is smartly automatically turning off MP usage, effectively making this a single core render. I doubt you are using odd resolutions, as then H.264 wouldn't work. So that leaves the source footage. Pretty much the only times I have heard of this behavior is with CameraRAW and RED files, but it may also affect other formats. this may eitehr be excessive memory consumption in one of the loaders, or, which happens with MP, the program needing to duplicate and copy temporary source files for each render instance and that not working for some reason, possibly simply disk space shortage.... The power of logical deducation.... BTW, similar behavior may apply, if specific audio formats are involved. Whatever it is, do check this stuff. I'm sure it's easy to fix by using otehr formats or running pre-conversions on the footage.

Why I can't export a single frame from my composition?

I try to export a single frame from the cavas but motion just did nothing when I click on export. Is there something wrong with my motion setup? I have trashed the motion's plist couple times already but still having the same issue. I can't even save the project. When click on save, motion did nothing, just like export. HELP!

I see that you are on an intel mac. Are you running the universal versions (Final Cut Studio 5.1 w/ Motion 2.1)?
See this article for troubleshooting steps: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302596.
When I am having major issues like this, I just start over from scratch. Do a complete erase and install with the OS discs, reinstall all applications and update everything with software update. I keep a separate partition just for film and video work that I can blow away any time (I don't store any important files on it).

HT200044 how to export a single frame in 10.0.6 - I cannot find option?

With 10.0.5 There was an option on "share" to pick a single frame from the timeline and export the image as a JPEG or other formats. I do not find this option on the new version.

It works now, you need to go back to share and a new option is available that was created by the step you mentioned, listed as share frame one -- when selected, this allows for exporting the frame to the desktop!
Thanks.

What's the simplest way to export a single frame from an animated gif as gif?

i have an animated gif and wish to save a single frame as a non-animated gif.
in the past i've been achieving this by deleting all the frames i don't wish to export and deleting them before exerting, this seems very clumsy though so i figure there's a more sensible solution in there somewhere, but where?

Thanks, Bill! Actually version 9 looks a little clearer than that, as it has two bold clear white paddles to mark the edge of the work area.
I was a little frustrated at first, because whatever I did, it still took a year and exported the entire video.
Then:
I caught sight of this teeny tiny box waiting for a tick from me, which said:
Share Work area Bar Only
We have lift-off
Thanks again. So much quicker than all that deleting ahnd hoping you don't accidentally say "yes" when prompted to save changes!

How can I export a single frame as an image?

Hi, I'd like to take single frames of video and use them in printed material. Its HDCAM, from a Sony EX1, edited on FCP 10.1. How can I export them simply?
Regards
Phil

Place the playhead on the frame you want as a still. Then in share window choose location Save Current Frame. You can then select options such as Jpg, PNG etc.

How do I export a single frame from a QT movie?

WHY in the world does this seem sooooo difficult to do?

Select the frame you want by using the scrubbing bar.
Hold down the command key and then click the c key (copy).
Switch to the Preview app and choose "New From Clipboard" and save the image.

Premiere Pro CC 'single frame' export squashes aspect ratio

Hi,
When I used the single frame export button to export a single frame from my timeline, the 16:9 ratio gets squashed in.
The image has a play button graphic on it and that should be round but it comes out oval.
When I import the image into Photoshop, it looks normal 16:9 but when I save it as a jpeg and open it up, it's still squashed.
I would be so grateful if someone could help me sort this out.

Thanks Jim for your quick reply. I am still wondeirng if there is a better way. The footage I am editing is 1920 x 1080 DSLR footage. Anytime I export a frame from Fnal Cut Pro it does it fine. I moved over to Adobe recently and I'm suprised that it's not working. I wondered whether there was a way to change my export settings so that it exports with square pixels from Premiere Pro. Meanwhile I will try to follow your instructions re square pixles and photoshop.

How do I export a file to mov? I always get just a single frame.

I don't work in flash. So excuse my ignorance. I have a flash file that I want to import to After Effects. Everytime I try exporting it only exports a single frame and everytime I publish it I only get an html file. I'm getting fustrated! This should be straight forward!
Here's the file...
http://www.mediafire.com/download/k6r6cwdm6tsl6o9/TrixieCS6dd.fla

is all your animation on the main timeline? if not, move the animation to the main timeline.
do you have any movieclips on the main timeline? (if yes, change them to graphic symbols and retest.)

Premiere Pro CC inserting single frame into exported files

I have never had this issue before today.
A project I have been compiling off and on for several months was exported using AME via PPCC.
In previous exports this issue did not come up at all.
Here is the problem:
The rendered videos (using Apple ProRes 422 HQ, QT H.264, and MPEG2 DVD) have a single frame insert between two stills in a montage.
The previous render it appeared on a different photo a few seconds later in the program, like this:
Again, these are single frame artifacts not found in the timeline in PPCC. They only appear as "flash frames" in the exported video.
Anybody else seeing this? Is there a solution?
Thanks

Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for posting on Adobe forums,
Please provide us details of your systems:
What is the OS and version ?
What is the Graphics Card installed on the system ?
How much Ram do you have ?
Do you use any external Hard Drive ?
and if you are using GPU Acceleration on Open CL, You can these issue on Export.
Please switch GPU acceleration on Software only mode, (if using cuda enabled card then Cuda )

Can't export .MOV in AE cc render queue, But I can Export .MOV using Media Encoder cc

I get “[file path and name].mov”. An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1610153464) when trying to export .mov using AE cc render queue but works fine in media Encoder cc. My problem is that i need to export animation with alpfa channel for a client and cannot find an alpha channel option in media encoder.
Please help

To export with an alpha channel in Adobe Media Encoder, choose "32 bit" from the Depth menu under the Video tab in the export settings. (That refers to 32 bits per pixel: 8 each for R, G, B, and A.) Of course, that option is only available if the codec can include an alpha channel, such as with the Animation codec in a QuickTime container.

FAQ: Why doesn't AVI appear as an export format in the Render Queue?

[For information on rendering and exporting, see "Basics of rendering and exporting".]
On Windows versions of After Effects, AVI appears listed with the more comprehensive name, "Video for Windows". In fact, it's the format specified by the default Output Module template. The Format Options button will reveal the AVI/VfW codecs available on your system.
On Mac systems, AVI/Video for Windows is not available as a direct export option (except through the File > Export path, which is really not recommended). Export a lossless intermediate file from the Render Queue instead (for example, a Quicktime file). You can then use a number of converter applications (including Quicktime Pro, for example) to convert this intermediate file to an AVI file.

I'm starting to get the opinion that it can't be done - can't find any information explaining how, anyway. Perhaps this is because .HTML format often uses it's own folder for storing image files, etc..., and the other formats (rpt, .pdf, .xls, .doc and .rtf) simply use a file. The "Export Report" dialog would need to be a bit more complicated to switch between saving as a file and saving a set of files in a (potentially new) folder, so I'm just going to hide the Export button on the CrystalReportViewer control, add an external "Export" button, and roll my own dialog.

Exporting non-looping (single frame) swf file

I am using a third-party application to create a "page-flipping" version of a book. For quality reasons, I want to export the pages of the document as swf files. When I import the resulting swf files to the application, they flicker at the default frame rate of 24 fps. When I open the swf file in Flash Player, if I hit the "play" button, it flickers as well. If I use the "next frame" and "previous frame" commands, it's apparent that the file has two frames, one with the page content, the other with a blank (white) appearance.
Is there a way to export the pages as *SINGLE* frame swf files?
In desperation I've tried to export the pages as .fla files and generate the swf files from Flash, but the layouts are significantly corrupted when I open the fla files in Flash.
FYI, I'm using InDesign CS6.

Amy, you tease...go on, what's planned for the next release then?
Nah, I know you won't tell.
Michael/Sebastian,
There are a number of workarounds that are more or less usable. You can place a print button on the page where the chart is located. A user can print to printer or to pdf if she has that functionality. The only issue there is that the whole dashboard screen prints. Depending how just how much you have on a screen that you don't want printed, you may have to reorganise the charts on to their own tabs, for example, which is what I do. I use the whole tab for the chart itself, probably leave a logo on top and bottom and then the whole page prints with my logos and the chart.
Less elegant but always good value for money: flash image capture. I don't like that and it requires a utility clients side.
Hope this helps.
Chris
Go on Amy...

Export vertical oriented movie single frame - not working

Using:
- iMac 20" 2 GHz 4 GB RAM
- OSX10.5.8
- iPhoto 8 version 7.1.5 (378)
- QuickTime Player Pro Version 7.6.9 (1680.8)
- Preview 4.2 (469.5)
Here is what I do to export a frame from a move in iPhoto to get a single frame:
Open and play a video in iPhoto using Quicktime Pro, stoping and selecting a particular frame, pressing Command C, open Preview, select New From Clipboard.
or
Open and play a video in iPhoto using Quicktime Pro, stoping and selecting a particular frame, Selecting File Export Move to Picture.
Both the above work for horizontal oriented movies.
However, for vertically oriented movies neigther works.
Movies are taken with:
- iPhone 3GS
- Exaxti CG6
- Insignia NS-DSC7B09
- Fujifilm Finepix XP20.
Any solutions/suggestions (except upgrading to the newest iPhoto, Lion, etc. too slow on a 2 GHz iMac)
Thanks.

I mentioned in the second part of my initial post that I did also try the export "Movie to Picture" with the same results.
Strange! That work flow still works on my PPC platform. (Unfortunately, I don't have an Intel platform available with OS 10.5.8 installed for testing.)
Am I able to have "MPEG Streamclip" open as the default when a movie is double clicked on in iPhoto instead of Quicktime opening the movie?
Not sure. I don't use iPhoto (prefer Aperture) normally and definitely would not use either for video clip management. Try resetting the double-click external edit switch or reset the "Open With" atribute for the class of movies being edited.
This actually for a novice user who I suggested take short video clips, pick a frame then copy/paste it into Preview instead of taking stills. Unfortunatly my advice fails when the iPhone photos are taken vertically.
The problem may be based on a change on the application being use. Like anamorphic videos with contain both pixel dimensions and PAR values, the reoriented videos may contain both true orientation and display orientation information. How the files work may depend on the application being used at the time. I.e., some third-party video/still display apps rely on the original orientation while others use the "rotated" info embedded in the file. And, unfortunately, it appears that Preview does not know what to do, so it does nothing. My guess is this is a bug that needs to be reported in feedback to Apple again and again until until they decide to address and correct the Preview application.

Videos become single frame when exporting iPhoto album

I've gotten the hang of how to organize pix and vids in an "album" and get them renamed. Now I just want to give those renamed reordered photos on discs to other people that will be on Mac and PCs. This apparently means using the "export" feature, as burning an album directly from iPhoto won't produce a disc usable by a PC.
"Exporting" the album succeeded in making a new folder elsewhere on my computer containing all of the images and it preserved their names. However, I noticed all of the Quicktime and AVI files had very small file sizes. When I double click on a .mov file, for example, it opens in Quicktime but it is now only a single frame. Same is true for the avi files.
Any suggestions on another export setting tweak I need to do to get this right?

You shouldn't have to change it to original though. And if it isn't exporting the actual movie, it should show up as a pic, not have the video icon. I lost important footage from hurricane Ike because I was in a hurry, and trusted the app. Then I go to look at the videos in iMovie, and they aren't even recognized. Current should be whatever it is. Currently that was a video, not an image. Sad.

How do i export a single jpeg frame from a video file in final cut x

how do i export a single jpeg frame from a video file in final cut x

You can also use the 3 finger method of COMMAND+SHIFT+4, then drag across what you want to copy from the image. That will show up on your desktop, which then you can edit using Photoshop, if you want too.
You can then change the file format from a PNG to either a .JPG or TIFF or even a Photoshop image.
Make sure, you have stopped the playback, to what you want to save as a still.
Either method works, to make a still image from video.
