"Rendering Required Files" - huh?
I'm editing a sequence with a couple of nested sequences and a multicamera edit. Suddenly I'm encountering huge delays when PP RANDOMLY decides it needs to do some rendering. I (seemingly at random) get the message "Rendering Required Files" and then I have to wait for minutes to do anything!
• There are no compilicated effects in any of the sequences.
• There are only a few tracks in the master sequence, and only one or two tracks of audio and/or video in the prior sequences.
• I have a dual quad core MacPro with 16GB of RAM.
• I have 4x1TB hard drives.
I can not for the life of me understand why it needs to render anything. I get the feeling this has to do with audio, but I can not pin this down. Can anybody explain what the heck the program is rendering so I can figure out a workaround?????
Not that I'm too much into the "me too" kind of reply, but I just wanted to add my data into this thread in hope for an eventual fix.
I'm using the PC version (CS5.5) with all the latest updates, on an Intel i7 (4 cores +HT), 24 GB RAM, 2 nVidia GTX470 (sli), a SolidState drive for OS and Apps, and 4x 2TB disks in RAID10 configuration for my data. I think the PC's performance should be more than adequate.
My projet seems similar to what other users have been describing. I have a first sequence on which I have laid 2 video tracks and 2 additional audio tracks. No video effect has been applied. As for audio effect, I have applied EQ and Dynamics on 2 of the tracks (not on the clips themselves). Ultimately, I ended up muting 3 of the audio tracks. Therefore, only 1 audio track ends up in my mix. The audio clip is an uncompressed mono WAV file which was generated by Audition (44.1kHz, 16bits).
On a second sequence, I laid the the video and audio parts of Sequence1 as two seperate clips, so they are completely unlinked. I have set the video clip to MULTI CAM. The audio clip having been laid on the sequence seperately is not influenced at by any of my video edits and camera changes. I have used this approach after reading other users' input on this thread.
When the dreaded "Rendering Required Files..." poped up, I did a couple of UNDO/REDO in order to pin point the exact operation after which the problem occurs. It happened right after I used the Razor Tool to cut my audio clip. At this point, I haven't move my clips' begin and end points. I only applied a cut somewhere in the middle of the audio clip and left it untouch. I can undo that cut and the problem dissapears. But as soon as I cut my clip again, I can no longer play my Sequence #2 without the "Rendering Required Files..." window poping up. I have several hours of video to edit. This happened at 35 minute into the sequence. I can't afford the time to wait for all the rendering to take place, only to end up in the same position where the application will not remember the render it just did.
Interestingly, I can play Sequence #1 with no problem. On Sequence #2, the problem persits even if I mute (click the speaker and eye icons) all audio and video tracks. I tried selecting a limited work area, even a blank are with no audio nor video, and I still have the problem when I hit the enter (preview) key.
Also, there's a yellow line on top of my timeline (both sequences) meaning Premiere should attempt to render the sequence on the fly.

Sick of "Rendering Required Files" to Play. Want 1x scrub.
Multi-cam project. Very large.
I can get some work done when I focus on a single sequence, and keep working at it.
But bouncing between sequences results in "Rendering Required Files" and multi-hour delays to be able to hit play.
Scrubbing works well enough... audio skips a bit but I can easily make out what is being said.
How can I treat scrubbing as Play? A 1x scrub button? Can a macro be set up if it doesn't already exist?
I hit spacebar when walking away from computer, and hopefully enjoy pre-rendered audio next work session. But I need a way to work without waiting for an audio render to complete. I move between sequences all the time, and currently am not seeing a productive workflow.
Could someone explain how I can use scrub in a more user-friendly fashion, without it being so dependent on my current zoom level?
Thanks, -gI've already submitted one (Jan 18 never heard back). I was hoping there was a work-around someone knew about.
Here's my request copy/paste.
Title:
Immediate ability to edit multi-camera scene without need to pre-process audio.
How:
To play a scene that I'm working on, often it is necessary to pre-render audio. If the scene consists of multi-camera & multi-audio source with many cameras, this can take hours (on IMHO decent hardware).
But, if I simply want to scrub the timeline, Premiere is capable of emitting audio indicating how the timeline sounds at that moment.
I need some IMMEDIATE ability between the two... it need not sound any better than scrubbing... maybe the audio drops out or just doesn't sound quite right. But I need the ability to scrub/play at 1x speed without waiting hours for pre-render of audio.
Maybe pre-render can be temporarily disabled. Maybe it is a new type of "play". Maybe it is a scrub locked to 1x speed.
Why:
My project consists of ~50 lectures. Each lecture is multi-cam coverage with additional audio channels. To edit any individual lecture this is (barely) passable, so long as I'm not flipping between lectures which often requires a re-render of the pre-rendered audio.
But all these lectures are now to be used in a single timeline. I'd like to copy moments from individual lectures, but I can't review any edited lectures without re-rendering that audio. Even just to identify a snipped of audio... scrubbing is to hard to control speed to make the audio intelligible. Play almost always triggers audio pre-render taking ~1h.
So to skip thru various lectures looking for key moments is impractical.
As a work-around I'm using rendered MP4 and importing that, just so I can brainstorm final project easier. But I should really be able to easily pull from my edited lecture timelines, and so have access to multiple audio channels and camera angles right now. I only import rendered MP4 because I can't wait an hour just to identify and copy a 5s moment of audio. -
CS6 Multicam "Rendering Required Files"
Did a quick search for "rendering required files" and came up with a number of threads from early-mid 2011 regarding CS5 and 5.5 difficulty with PrPro stopping to render audio files when doing multicam edits. I never experienced that until CS6, and now it's happening frequently on a rather basic multicam edit (one HDV, one XDCam-EX, and one AVCHD, with an extra audio track).
From what I've seen in previous threads, there never was a clear solution to the issue. Anybody shed any more light on it, now a year later with a new version of the software?
Would I be better off to do a mix down of my four audio tracks before doing the multicam, and then nest that on track one and get rid of my other three original tracks?
I'm running an i7-920 OC to 2.8GHz on an Asus P6T6 WS Revo with 24 GB of memory, an SSD OS/Programs, a three-disk RAID-5 Project files, a four-disk RAID-5 Data files, and a standalone 6GB/s SATA for scratch and previews, with a GTX-580 for two monitors and CUDA and a GTX-285 for preview/multicam monitor.This took me forever to figure out, but I think I have your answer. When you play back multicam in premiere, it tries to mix all of the audio from your original sequence. Even though all you hear is the audio from track 1 (at least this was the behavior in previous versions).
My fix for this was to delete all all of the audio clips (besides track 1) in the original nested sequence. Since I use external audio, I just use the camera audio for syncing purposes anyway. But that's pretty much what you'll want to do. Mix down whatever audio you plan on actually using for your project and put that in the sequence with your multicam clip. Or if you prefer, put it on track 1 of your nested sequence.
Also, you'll want to unlink the audio and video from your multicam clip, and delete any cuts you've made to the audio. For some reason, edits to the audio clip also cause the "rendering required files" error. So just delete all of the many audio "clips" you've made throughout the process of editiing your video, saving just one to drag out to the end of your video. This way you'll only have one long audio clip spanning the entire length of your video. Bam. No more rendering required files. -
This is driving me nuts... I have the read the other posts bit cannot fix it. I have a multicam sequence completely built with music, graphic, etc... for whatever reason, today, I am getting this pop up "Rendering Required Files" every time I hit space bar. I am using Windows 7, 2.8Ghz.
The mutlicam sequence was made up of two cameras and one channel of audio. I first synced them up (two video tracks and one audio track), then put in another sequence for multicam editing. After everything was switched back n forth between cameras, I added all my graphic elements, transitions, credits, etc.. I am almost finished with the edit, but now I get this pop up constantly.... Argh. I cannot go back but am I hoping someone can instruct me on what to do to get rid of this pop up...Thanks!I think you should wait for a bit when the "Rendering Required Files" pops up, it might just be doing what it says.

Rendering Required Files pins single CPU core
A feature request has been submitted. I'm posting to forum so to show screen-cap of unbalanced CPU load. With CC 7.1.0 it can sit like this for an hour. Better than CS6, it used to take a full day.
Happens when switching to a not-recently-played sequence. Please parallelize it to use multiple cores, so I don't have to wait as long.
This is important because it is still one of the biggest bottlenecks. I have a very fast system. 64GB RAM. Lots of cache space on drives. I can't throw money at this problem, only Adobe can solve it.
Am posting this right now becuase... I'm waiting on PPro. Guess it is the best use of my time?PPro preforms really well for me (generally). This is the moment when PPro is presumeably rendering audio? Next time it comes up I'll just try copying the sequence and deleting all the video content from the sequence leaving audio.
I don't think it is an effect. Just something to do with having audio ready to play when I hit spacebar. But I'll confirm this by purging the video component. -
"rendeing required files" and then error
After I almost finished edit a short movie (in 5.1 surround) the PPro CS4 (4.0.1) showed me the massage "rendering required files" (i guess it rendered the sound because the video already been rendered) but before playing it, the program closed and show me "there was an error, would you like to send it to adobe" (or something like that).
Now... I really in a hurry with this project, and i can't even play it on my PC, so i even won't try to export it :(
I tried to change the "strech audio files" library, but after start to render the audio files i got the same error massage and i was asked if to send it to adobe.
What should i do now?
i have WinXP SP2
Intel core2due e6400 (2.1ghz)
3g ddr2 ram
nvidia 9800gt
soundblaster audigy2 zs> What should i do now?
1. Upgrade to SP3
2. Get rid of the Soundblaster
3.

I have tried EVERYTHING to fix this problem but don't know what else to do.
I have a bunch of mov files that I would like to edit on FCP but whenever I put them into the timelines they require rendering (before I even edit them!) And rendering each file is not an option because I have 100s of files and they each take about 30 minutes to render.
Why is FCP not letting me watch any of the files before they are rendered?
I also made sure the sequence is on the same settings and the clips but that didn't seem to fix anything.
any help will be appreciated.So I was trying this for MONTHS and couldn't get the clips to work properly. Right after I posted the message I decided to try one more time...and it worked! I changed the setting of the timeline and this time when I put my clip in the timeline I didn't have to render it and was able to edit some clips I've been trying to edit since December!

Access 2013 Installation - Cannot continue unable to download a required file
We have working installations of office 2013 - Home and Business on two machines and we are trying to install Access 2013.
Both machines are running Windows 8.1
We have purchased 2 standalone physical media of Access 2013 to install on the machines.
We place the disks in the drive and get a small indicator that the disk are being read and then nothing.
We tried running \office\setup32.exe -v (we have 32bit office version already installed) and get message saying. "we're sorry, we can't continue because we weren't able to download a required file. "
We are connected to internet and i have tried disabling the firewall and antivirus but get nowhere. I do not wish to uninstall office unless i absolutely have to. Any suggestions please.Are these machines on a domain?
It my be possible that your WSUS does not have the files available. If so add those files to the update library or remove the machines from the domain, install and then re-add to domain
*which is not recommended but is a possible solution if nothing else is available -
I have two first Gen Apple TV's and a new MAC Book Pro. I have about 600GB of music and 40GB of photos located on an external hard drive (Western Digital). In the past, I have not run into any issues when syncing music or photos. Recently, I get an error message "iTunes cannot sync to the AppleTV because of a problem you your computer. The required file cannot be found." I noticed this after I added a few folders to my photo folder, which the AppleTV is pointed to for accessing and syncing my photos. I went to the AppleTV to look to see if the new folders were in the photos, but they were not listed and obviously not syncing from the hard drive to the AppleTV.
For trouble shooting, I disconnected my upstairs AppleTV from iTunes, then reconnected, pointed the AppleTV to the applicable music and phots folders on my external hard drive. The music synced fine, but the photos did not sync. I got the same error message.
Does anyone have any advice to what the issue may be??
I read some posts similar to mine and the referenced deleting the iPhoto file cache. I did not try this as I do not use iPhoto as the source for my photos syncing to my AppleTV's.
Thanks - Scott1508Looks like my WD Hard Drive may have an issue. I pointed the Apple TV to the photos folder on my other WD Hard Drive, which is formatted for MAC and it synced the photos fine. I had never had an issue with the first WD Hard Drive, but it was never formatted for MAC.
Not sure if this could be the issue???
I am considering getting an Apple Time Capsule (2 TB) for my back up, but also need a second back up for all my music and photos.
Does anyone have advice on moving to the Time Capsule as my main back up and keeping a WD as the secondary back up?? -
I tried to sync my Macbook Pro photos in iPhoto with my iPod Touch. I have done this numerous times, but today I got an error message saying the required file cannot be found. At the same time all of my photos on my iPod vanished. Can anyone help me?
Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

iTunes 10.6.1.7 Fehlermeldung: "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
Jeder Versuch iTunes zu starten war bisher vergeblich: unter anderem auch das Vorgehen nach Artikel HT1925 der knowledge base.

Windows XP Neuinstallation und/oder Installation einer älteren iTunes-Version als letzter Ausweg?Antwort und Lösung eine Woche später:

Get Error Message "itunes cannot run because some of its required files ...
complete message that i see in a pop-up window -- "itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall itunes".
I check windows update. Microsoft says I'm up to date. When I reinstall ipod off the CD and/or itunes/quicktime from iTunesSetup.exe file version 7.0.2.16 it installs ok. If I choose unintall then reinstall or if I repair the itunes software the install program says everything is fine.
However when I connect to Ipod. The ipod window comes up in itunes and then shuts down real fast. Itunes continues to work but i can't see the ipod.
The showstopper happens when i shut down itunes after the attempt to connect the ipod. When I restart itunes i get the message -- "itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall itunes".
Reinstall **** resumes.
What files are missing?
It would be nice if the interface offered more details. Or I could go online to a self diagnostic and repair web page like Microsoft offers.
Things should be made as simple as possible, but not any simpler. -- Einstien..
I think things are too simple...
What are my options?
Help Please."itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall itunes".
Just uninstall and reinstall. If you get some kind of error in the uninstall process, then if it were me, I'd use windows system restore to restore your system right before the original install of iTunes. Even if you don't get the error when you uninstall, it sounds to me like it hasn't been installed properly. So if you decide to go with system restore and the same thing happens, I would download a fresh copy of iTunes installer from their website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Make sure you download the one for Windows.
"I check windows update. Microsoft says I'm up to date."
This is because that you are. Microsoft has nothing to do with iTunes updates. -
