Rendered footage is in slowmotion

Hi there,
I have a question and am kind of new to Premiere. For about 3 months now i have been editing footage, rendering it, and then exporting it without issues. I typically use 1920x1080 @48fps from a gopro with protunes on and camraw. In the past I could color correct, cut it up, and then render and export it and everything was fine. The past two weeks (it seems like after Premier 2014 downloaded) that I have tried doing this with similar footage, everything slows down to 1/2-1/3 speed in playback. It does the same thing when rendered. I have tried checking older projects and it seems the sequence frame rate is the only thing that is different when I tried poking around settings was in the sequence settings the frame rate was 10 instead of 29.xx. Even when I change that on the new project it does the same slowing (although not as bad) in the render and final export to xx.mp4. My next step is uninstalling and running the adobe cc cleanup to get rid of all of the settings... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was able to get the footage to play correctly, but only if I work with the footage directly off the SD card. The issue seems to arise when I import the footage that's been transferred to my hard drive.

My mac shows very colourful patterns and completely freezes my system. This bEgan after rendering footage went sour. My mac tries to restart itself but never works. Please help!

hey team? My MacBook Pro is completely lame after rendering footage out of Adobe premier pro cc14 ( the legit one).
2.6ghz 8 gig ram and 1 terabyte. The footage was 4k go pro stuff. since then and now every time i successfully turn on my mac; patterns appear and violently change as if possessed. It is actually quite impressive. The one thing I remembet doing was in limiting the kb per second from the 10,000 to unlimited. this I fear may have caused my computer to burn eight theoug the graphics card.
I Took it to a place to get fixed ( core ) in New Zealand - who couldn't determine anything theafter because they never had the glitch when try used it. Still chargede though- So never use them.
Thoughts? Please : /

Why does pre-rendered footage get re-rendered again for every playback or preview?

Dear Sir/Mdm,
I'm a novice, please bear with me.
I'm using an Asus laptop with:
     1. CPU: Intel i5-3337U @ 1.80 GHz (4 CPUs)
     2. OS: Windows 8.1 64 bits (6.3, Build 9600)
     3. RAM: 8 GB
     4. DirectX: Version 11
     5. On-board Graphics: Intel HD 4000
     6. Dedicated Graphics: GeForce GT 740M
     7. Dedicated video memory: 2048 MB DDR3
     8. Nvidia Driver version: 6.14.13.3523
     9. Total available graphics memory: 4096 MB
I hoped to avoid repeated rendering of footage segments during RAM previews, scrub-through, or playbacks.
I pre-composed related layers of completed segments and pre-rendered the pre-comp, which gave a footage (in AVI format) to replace the pre-comp.
But when I scrub-through, playback (spacebar), or do RAM previews, the pre-rendered footage gets re-rendered again (for every scrub-through/preview/playback).
Need advice.
Thanks.

Thanks for the responses and apologies for the slow reply (I spent some time following-up on the clues from the kind responses and did a more focused reading of AE's Help page based on the clues).
To answer Mr Szalam's questions:
     I'm using AE CS6 version 11.0.4.2
     Memory settings:
          Installed RAM: 7.9 GB

     Current Multiprocessor settings: [Not selected] (due to advice given in the responses)
Copy that on the RAM part. Time for a little hardware upgrade :-)
For Mr/Mdm bogiesan's advice, thanks. Now I know more of what to look out for in simplifying future projects. For this current case, the pre-dendered movie-layer is the only layer-segment as I intended it to be a completed segment in the hope of avoiding repeated renders ... alas, it didn't turn out the way I hoped ... oh well :-)
For Mr Dave La Ronde's advice, copy that. I've disabled multiprocessing. Indeed, I'm using sub-par hardware for the intended purposes.
To sum up:
From AE's Help-pages:
1. "If you have a nested composition ... you can save time during each rendering operation by pre-rendering the nested composition ..."
     Takeaway: Re-rendering will occur under all situations, be it a plain movie-layer, effects-applied movie-layer, etc. Pre-rendering was designed to save time on nested compositions only (i.e. re-rendering nested compositions take longer than re-rendering the pre-rendered version of the nested composition).
2. "The rendering of a movie is the frame-by-frame rendering of each of the frames that make up the movie.".
     Takeaway: Even plain-movies get re-rendered. Since pre-rendered movies are the same as imported movies, everything gets re-rendered without exception.
Although Premiere Pro CS6 seems to handle movie footages with transition-effects more smoothly (e.g. during scrub-through), but I guess AE CS6 has much more to keep track of if it needs to tell the difference between a plain-movie and an effects-applied one ... perhaps a more optimized approach is indeed to render everything without exception. Perhaps a dedicated no-render-layer-slot can help AE to decide what not to render (i.e. anything dragged into such a no-render-layer will never be rendered) ... but that's just from a novice hobbyist's limited-knowledge perspective (I'm not a professional effects artist, which may be obvious from the sub-par hardware I use ... I bought the Teachers and Students Edition of CS6, which was kindly offered by Adobe at a steep discount ... and I use it to satisfy my curiosity of how those stuff-of-dreams sort of movie-effects are created ... for now, I'm only able to play with basic video montages :-)
Thanks for all the responses. Case closed as AE seems to be designed to render everything without exception.

Why do I loose rendered footage from my timeline in Premiere Elements 10, after saving my project !

Why do I loose rendered footage from my timeline in Premiere Elements 10, after saving my project on exit! When I reopen the project, the timeline needs rendering again! Can anyone help me with this problem, it's driving me mad!
Is there a fix, or is it a problem with settings in the program! Any help, greatly appreciated! Mike's Media.

Mike,
Welcome to the forum.
Along with the answers to Steve's questions, please tell us about your computer's I/O sub-system, i.e. your computer's HDD's, and especially where the Project, the media and the PrE Scratch Disks are stored. For instance, if everything is on C:\, or perhaps the Project, media and Scratch Disks are all on an external USB 2.0 HDD.
Good luck,
Hunt

Rendered footage lags after about 3-5 seconds of smooth playback

The project has a decent amount of sequences (25-30) and a total size of about 300GB and is running off of a LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt 1TB Mobile drive w/ at least 300GB of free storage for the scratch disk. I let the project load up, generate peak files, and then I render the sequence out and try to play it back. It plays smoothly for around 3-5 seconds and then it starts to lag and play as though I'm trying to playback 4k footage with color correction without rendering.
Any ideas?
Running Premiere Pro CS6 (6.0.5) on a 2014 Mac Pro 3GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon E5 with 32 GB Ram and a AMD FirePro D500 3072 MB Graphics Card.

Hey Kevin,
The drive is connected via Thunderbolt.
And to clarify, this issue is consistent in this project, but only this project.

Rendering footage in Color isn't rendering the right footage?

I edited my footage in FCS 2 and got everything in place, then I sent it to Color 1.0.2 and after I finished Color Grading, I added all of the footage to the Render Queue. the first five videos did a great job of rendering but 3 of the scenes that I corrected, start to render and it is rendering a whole hour long shot that is supposed to only be a 5 second shot. It seems that Color has confused the in and out point of the shot. The scene looks fine in the Primary, secondarie,etc.. modes, but for some reason when I bring it in to render it renders an hour long shot. If you guy's have any ideas, I would love to hear them. Thanks!

At the top of the Help menu is a document called Release Notes.
This behaviour is written within. You will save yourself a world of grief if you read the Release Notes.
Also, as a new reader to the forum, welcome, however, there's a Search function that you should use.
Color did not confuse the in and out points of a shot, this is the result of user error. Color is a great tool with lots of quirky issues. Read the Release Notes AND the manual.

Best way to get rendered footage from 3D app into FCE

I want to render footage from my 3D app (Cinema 4D,usually in TIFF sequences, rather than QT movies) and bring it into FCE for editing, color correcting, and possible compositing.
What format will FCE accept? I tried this scenario with iMovie and no matter what settings I used in rendering from the 3D app, the image was blurry in iMovie.
Looks fine in Quicktime, though.
I don't own FCE, yet, so I can't experiment.
Thanks.

Hi(Bonjour)!
DV and HDV (Apple intermediate codec) are compressed formats.
You must understand that FCE HD can only works in format aimed to TV set output (compressed formats).
The best quality to outfput animation movie from 3D app is... Quicktime animation codec. It retains alpha channel and give best color rendering, but give pretty large files.
Altough your animation movie looks sharp, FCE HD convert it (render) to fit the sequence format (DV or HDV: suited for TV set monitor, thus compressed). So the result will be a compressed one. That's the way FCE HD handle all material inserted in sequence.
To avoid rendering in FCE, select the same format as your FCE sequence from your 3D app (DVCPro NTSC, or Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60). By choosing the same format (DV or HDV (AIC), you choose the same compression quality however.
Final Cut Pro can handle a myriad of formats from heavely compressed mpeg to uncompressed HD. So if you put a uncompressed animation codec into a sequence with same settings, the output will be uncompressed.
If your aimed distribution format is DVD, the result will be compressed anyway to standard def format. Go with FCE HD confidently.
If you want to distribute on computer screen, DV is not a good way to go, but HDV(AIC) can give good results with Quicktime convertion to H.264 codec in full or half frame size. FCE HD can do the job.
Although DV is not best viewable on computer screen, you can produce quicktime H.264 with small frame size, say half or quarter size.

PROBLEM: AE Rendered Footage Jittery. Frame Swapping?

Hey everyone,
I recently shot some footages of my friend playing some basketball and decided to make a cloning video out of it. I imported the video file (605.mts) to AECS4, divided up, and layered the clips.
However, for some odd reason, the footage becomes jittery in preview and after export. It's like some frames got moved around. Perhaps the video itself would better explain things for me.
I shot the footage with a Canon Vixia HF100, which shoots in AVCHD that uses .MTS file format. I'm on a quadcore computer, 4gigs of ram. Using Adobe AE CS4. Any help will be appreciated! Thanks

Hum, this looks like an interpretation problem of your AVCHD file.
Short answer: AE struggles to read correctly your file.
Long answer: AVCHD has ton of flavors and revisions based on the original recorder device (camera), and the recording mode (preset you choose). AE supports most of those flavors, but new ones are released everyday on the market, making it difficult to be a reliable format. If you have not yet updated to 9.0.2, I recommand updating now as your AVCHD flavor support might be included in the update.
If it dones't change anything, I recommand you converting your file to a lossless codec format (like QT animation) to manipulate it correctly inside AE.
You can try the free converting tool MPEG Streemclip.
Hope that helps

Canon XA10 rendered footage problems

I'm using my new Canon XA10 and shot footage and editing in Final Cut Pro X. Everything is going great until I render it and watch it. Anything that moves I have noticed that there is a large amount of jagged edges that appear.
Info on my footage is: 1920x1080/ 29.97 fps - 1080i
Codecs: H.264, Linear PCM
I'm storing all my footage on a Media G/Drive 750 GB 7200rpm.
I will listen and try anything I can to get this footage to look as awesome coming out as it looks going in!!!
Thank you!!
New to posting so please be paitent with me!!!

Tom, here's a question...just so I'm clear on this:
I also have an XA-10 (as well as a 7D). So I'd typically be working with 1080p footage. Obviously, for performance sake, I'd want to switch playback to Proxy while editing. Then, as you suggest, switch playback prefrences back to "optimized" (ProRes 422) for exporting. But when switching back to 422, don't you have to re-render everything?

Creating a point cloud from a zdepth pass and rendered footage

I'm not totally familiar with pb3d, but is this something that it might be able to do?

It depends on what output you expect from it, and whether each value of that output can be computed independently. Ultimately the output of a PB3D filter is a set of pixel values that are used for shading - is that output suitable for your point cloud?

Jumpy/repeated playback on rendered AVCHD footage

Hi folks!
I am experiencing multiple jumpy & sometimes repeated frames during playback on rendered AVCHD files on Premiere Pro CS4. It's really hard to catch since it happens on multiple files and the jumpyness can be like a rewind or it skip frames.
The 5 second file sample below skips a few frames, pay attention to frames 38 to 39(Man does the cross). It skips! Also notice the first few frames of the footage gets jumpy.
Playback inside Premiere is fine and smooth. The problem only shows on the rendered footage's playback.
File: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=30XONDN2
Software: Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1
Output: H.264 or Quicktime MOV(Animation)
OS: Mac OS X 10.6.2
Camera: Panasonic HMC150 (AVCHD)
Settings: 720/24p
Any ideas on the solution?
Thanks!

ah right, you're on the Mac, I missed that in the first post, sorry.
try re-installing quicktime by going to the Apple site and downloading it. This page should open up with your detected OS:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
give that a try and see if you get any improvement.

Stuttered footage after rendering in After Effects

Who can help me?
When I rendered footage in After effects (6.5) it's a little bit stuttering.
It looks like shooting on progressive scan. The settings are on upper field. It's 16:9 PAL and came out of media 100 editing system.
The only thing we did in AFX is color correction.
Does anyone know this problem?

CS5 renders 24p HDV as alternating lines?

I'm having issues rendering HDV 1080p24 sequences containing Sony V1U 1080i 24pSCNA footage. If I render a timeline preview or render out a sequence through Adobe Media Encoder the rendered footage looks pixelated as contrasting detail flickers/shimmers. It looks exactly like Premiere Pro is rendering each frame by alternating between fields. I have tried turning on Maximum Render Quality and Maximum Bit Depth in both the sequences and Adobe Media Encoder, as well as changing the 24p Conversion Method in Playback Settings, to no avail.
The original footage Premiere captured from tape looks perfectly fine when played back in a third-party media player. Aside from some tearing on movement it also looks fine played back in Premiere using the Mercury engine accelerated by an NVIDIA GTX 470. The issue only occurs when a preview is rendered or the sequence is rendered out through AME (even when previews have not been generated or used for AME's rendering).
I've checked the interpret footage dialog, but there doesn't appear to be any useful options. Changing the footage's framerate to 23.976 merely slows down the footage, so PPro must be performing reverse pulldown on the fly in the sequence.

No, I'm editing in an HDV 1080p24 sequence. I wanted to edit and export as 23.976p, so that's why I chose that preset.
According to the preset's description, it is "For editing with IEEE1394 (FireWire/i.LINK) HDV equipment. 16:9 progressive-scan 1080p HD video at 23.976 frames per second. 48kHz audio."

Agree, you probably get very few AE users here. Luckily I am one of them, hee hee.
Try these 2 methods, combine or seperately:
1.Highlight the video layer, then go Main Menu Bar > Effect > Blur and Sharpen > Reduce Interlace Flicker, set the softness value to 1
and/or
2.In your main project window bin, highlight the video clip, and under File > Interpret Footage, toggle between choosing Upper Field first, Lower Filed first or None (or Frame)
You have to see each render result to get the best result.
I am suspecting either you have scale the footage, and/or slow down or speed up the footage, that may cause the stuttering. Filming or source of the footage, its orginal compression type, i.e. the codec, may also cause such "effect"
Cheers

I've created a key frame effect in FCP but it dissapears along with the moving object in my layer after rendering, how do I fix this?

I'm creating a titles sequence with Final Cut Pro. In two instances I've put an object in the time line and moved it using keyframes and motion. Before I render the file is still on the layer and visible while scanning the footage with the playhead. However as soon as I render the file dissapears while playing. The object is still listed on the timeline, but is basically invisible when I play the rendered footage. This has happened twice on my timeline. I wish I could explain this any better, but to be honest I've never seen this before and I have no better way to describe it. Other than my object just simply disappears after I render it. Hope you can help. Thank you.

You want your scratch disk to be set externally to a drive with a minimum of a FW800 connection. Is that what you have? (I understand you moved it during the troubleshooting process)
You haven't turned off Clip Enable have you? Right click the text file and make sure Clip Enable is checked. Or have you disabled the track with the green button to the left on the track?
I can't say I've seen this behavior from FCP. Maybe someone else has and they can shed some light on the situation.
I wouldn't use HQ even for a Canon 5D. I use ProRes(LT) RED or Arri Alexa now we talking big sensors that would take advantage of HQ. Assuming that the project will be exhibited on a system that would show you the differences.
