Schlechte Render Qualität Premiere Pro CS6

Hi,
ich habe folgendes Problem. Wenn ich eine Vorschau in Premiere Pro CS6 rendere ist diese von miesester Qualität. Ebenso die Ausgabe z.b. als ProRes422HQ oder Animation Codec.
Ich habe z.B. eine PNG Sequenz (oder Sony XDCam oder 5D H264) und blende am Ende ab ins Schwarz. Die gerenderte Vorschau der png Sequnez ist voller Artefakte (bending), die Blende ins Schwarz sieht katastrophal aus mit gleichen Artefakten.
Ungerendert sehe ich ein scharfes, klares Bild. Gerendert nur Schrott. Der Export sieht nicht besser aus.
Ich habe die Sequenzeinstellungen geändert, die Render Einstellungen alle durchprobiert. Maximale render Qualität eingestellt, es mit Max Bittiefe probiert - es wird nicht besser. Wenn ich meine png Sequenz im Quicktime Pro als H264, ProRes422HQ etc. ausspiele sieht die so aus, wie ich es mit vorstelle.
Für eine gute Qualität habe ich meinen Film aus Premiere jetzt als tga Sequenz expotiert, in Quicktime in einen ProRes422HQ gewandelt, in Final Cut den Ton angelegt, als ProRes422HQ wieder ausgespielt und in Quicktime und Episode in mein gewünschtes Format gewandelt. Ginge doch einfacher, wenn Preniere das von Anfang an gut machen würde.
Hat jemand nen Rat oder selbige Erfahrungen gemacht?
Viele Grüße

  • Yellow render bar in Premiere Pro CS6

    hey there,
    quick specs:
    HP Z820, 64GB RAM, NVidia quadro 6000 (alongside with a BlackMagic 3D extreme for monitoring), ext. SAS-RAID,  Windows 7 64bit, Adobe PP CS6.
    the issue is quite simple from the outside:
    any codec i slam into a new sequence gives me yellow (render) bars.
    doesn't matter if i customize the sequence or right click "new sequence from clip" (which i assume fits my sequence settings to my clip settings)
    the only codec that doesn't give me yellow bars is mpeg2. (really..?!)
    to check i turned the CUDA engine OFF - red bars immidiately.
    and even with yellow bars (which PP should be able to play back at least i get the choppiest playback sometimes)..
    but as you see it shouldn't be a hardware problem - so what am i doing wrong or didn't i get the idea of creating sequences?
    any suggestion appreciated.

    If the codec you use is not supported in a preset, you get the yellow bar. So what? If it plays fine, then there is nothing to worry about. With AVCHD 1080p/50 and 5.1 AC3 sound you get a yellow bar, so what? It plays fine.
    hey harm,
    "so what?" is not really a term that i often use. when i encounter a problem, i try to fix it or at least push as far as i can push to get the optimum under the given circumstances. "works anyway" doesn't really cut it for me. 
    i want to understand why there's the need to render despite the fact
    - that all my hardware and software is supposed to eliminate exactly this
    - that other companies solved this problem years ago
    - that adobe promotes a product that should do the job, but obviously doesn't
    and it actually does not playback fine. sometimes (=usually) the playback is choppy, sometimes the playhead jumps back to start without any reason and a few other problems i came across.
    i understand that adobe PP is not in the game as long as AVID is for example, but they claim to have a professional product (at least the name suggests it but as far as i am concerned if you really put PP to the test it tends to bend and sometimes to break.
    as much as i love dynamic link (main purchase reason) - i just can not run sensitive projects on it. or, before i do i need to understand why these things happen.
    you totally don't have to but i hope you understand my position.

  • Render times in Premiere Pro CS6

    In this otherwise very helpful article (link below) can anyone tell me if the numbers referred to in this table are hours: minutes, or minutes: seconds? In other words, by 8:16, do they mean 8 hours and 16 minutes, or 8 minutes and 16 seconds?

  • Premiere Pro CS6 very bad YouTube quality.

    Hello,
    Before asking me to look further on google because there may be my answer, i say that i've searched/posted/asked everywhere i could.
    I use fraps to record some in-game footages, the file bitrates are huge 500-900M, i then render them in premiere pro as i need to add an intro/ending and then i upload them (or i'm hardly trying to) on youtube.
    The thing is I've used every setting I could ever find, contacted youtube users who managed to do it right, but after I upload the video on youtube, the quality is absolutely horrible.
    Right after i render i check the video, the quality is perfect, after that I upload it to youtube and after processing the video, it looks like it has 1M bitrate, laggy.
    Can anyone please help me to solve this problem?
    Thanks!
    RAW clip bitrate: 500-900M
    Render settings from Premiere Pro CS6:
    Format: H264
    Resolution: 1280x720
    Frames per second: 30
    Field Order: Progressive
    Aspect: Square Pixels (1.0)
    TV Standard: NTSC
    Profile: High
    Level: 5.1
    Render at Maximum depth: Checked
    Bitrate settings:
    Encoding: VBR, 2 pass
    Maximum bitrate: 20M
    Minimum bitrate: 20M
    (Tried with smaller bitrates too, like 8/10/15, the output file wasnt so clear but youtube would still kill it)

    OK. Here is what I have done.
    I took took your crisp video of game play and dropped it on the New Item button to create a sequence. I checked the sequence and saw that the video was 1280X720 using 30 frames per second. Not 29.97, but 30. That could be relevant.
    Then I took this screen shot of the video playing in Windows Media Player and in the Program Monitor of Premiere Pro. I see some degradation even at 30Mb/s which suprised me to be honest with you.  I read through the YouTube help and they recommed 30Mb/s for 720p so I exported at 30Mb/s.
    The easiest place to spot the degradation is in the space above the letter E (before the CK) in the upper left of the frame. Some of the texture is missing.Not much. It is ever so much softer. But I don't believe that it will prove to be relevant.
    So, now it is time to upload to YouTube and see what happens.
    Darn, I have no way to play the YouTube video at exactly 1280X720. I just have full screen and the larger box.  Is there a way to do that? Other than setting my monitor for 720p or playing it on an old HDTV?
    Oh well, here it is. Reasonably clean going in. How about coming out? Not so much. I am not happy with it. I am going to try again using CBR just for the heck of it. Crud. That didn't help. See for yourself.
    I am stumped. Somebody with the capability to see it at the exact size speak up please. How is it done. (I use Chrome.)
    Edit: I found a YouTube resizer that sets the medium box bigger - to 1280X720. I knew it had to be possible. But I am certainly not happy with the changes YouTube makes to a 30Mb/s file.
    I am off to go try Vimeo.
    Edit:
    I am not happy with this either.
    There is something about this video that makes it difficult for them to encode it. I have no idea what it might be. Perhaps the more technical among us can provide answers. It is not horrible, and it is better than 480p, but it isn't great.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Render and Export Screen Glitch and Freeze

    I use Premiere Pro CS6 on a 2012 Macbook Retina display - 16GB RAM, 751GB Flash Storage, NVIDIA GeForce 650m Graphics Card, 2 External 4TB hardrives for scratch disks, Thunderbolt connection. When I try to render and export videos I often get a graphical glitch like in the pic shown below and my computer freezes. It happens very often, especially when there are a lot of effects in the videos - I use the GenArts Sapphire plugin often.
    This has been going on basically since I bought my Macbook 2 years ago, but it is starting to become more and more common -  considering this was the most expensive Macbook Pro you could buy I am very annoyed with this - even on some videos where I have applied no plugin effects or any color correction it happens, especially when trying to export videos.
    Any help on this issue would be appreciated.

    I am having precisely the same problem as bricklaneeditor, and have exactly the same setup: MBP early 2011, 16GB RAM, 512 GB SSD,
    30" ACD, Mac OS 10.7.4 , PPro 6.0.1
    Indeed, a restart of Premiere Pro always fixes the problem -- for a while.  I've also seen similar behavior in Media Composer 6.0.1 once or twice so am wondering whether it's an issue with this machine/OS, as the playback software architectures are so different on those two NLE's. 
    I should also mention that the problem is not isolated to any particular file format -- have seen it with timelines containing 7D footage, HDV and ProRes files.  
    I strongly suspect some sort of problem on either Apple's or Adobe's end with the GPU in this machine, as it is ATI and not Nvidia -- and is, as far as I know, the only non-CUDA GPU, at least on the Mac side, certified to work with the CS6 Mercury Playback Engine.   
    Also wondering whether an over-the-top or a clean install of Mountain Lion might shake things up enough to make a difference.  (Otherwise I'm in no big hurry to upgrade my OS.)  Is anyone seeing this problem with PPro under 10.8?  Might be worth installing 10.8 over an external HDD clone of the System drive and booting temporarily from the clone just to see if the problem persists in Premiere.  
    Anyone have any thoughts on these possibilities? 

  • Why is Premiere Pro CS6 crashing during render at 50% completion?

    I am running Premiere Pro CS6 on MacBook Pro, flash drives. The Mac is brand new. Nothing else is running. No other non-factory programs are installed.
    Regardless of what I do, during export to any output type, Premiere crashes when it's rendered to 50%.  I take the same project and only render part; crash at 50%. I try another new project, with nothing but a single video file, crash at 50%.
    <frustration>I am about to run to Final Cut, and I really don't want to. I am losing money and time that I don't have.</frustration>
    Any feedback would be majorly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    ...MacBook Pro, flash drives....I take the same project and only render part; crash at 50%. I try another new project, with nothing but a single video file, crash at 50%.
    Make sure you are not running out of available space

  • Premiere Pro cs6 keeps crashing when im editing or rendering a video

    When I am on Adobe Premiere Pro cs6 every 10-20 mins it crashes when im editing a video, it crashes more often when im rendering it (export media, ctrl+M). I dont mind when it crashes while im editing because i save the file regularly but when im rendering its a problem, it probably because the file is too big as i use dxtory to record skyrim but this is an expensive product so it should be able to render. I encode the file once ive chosen the format and stuff for the video and it says finish rendering in 50 mins or so and when it gets to like 4% rendering it says not responding. It then troubleshoots but then says 'close program'. this is very frustrating, please can someone help me.

  • Export Media in Premiere Pro CS6 ONLY produces an Audio File in Media Encoder

    First, all the system info:
    Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1
    Intel HD Graphics 3000 Display Adapter
    I’m using Premiere Pro CS6 Version 6.0.5 (001  (MC: 264587)) “Mighty Kilt”
    Version 6.0.3.1 (64 Bit) of Adobe Media Encoder CS6
    Other Adobe applications installed: AIR, Creative Cloud, Download Assistant, Encore CS6 Library, Flash Player 12 ActiveX, Flash Player 12 Plugin, Help Manager, Premiere Pro CS6, Premiere Pro CS6 Functional Content, Reader XI
    I’ve run check for updates on both Premiere Pro and Media Encoder and everything is up to date
    I'm producing a two disc, dual layer DVD set for 100 families of my son's marching band.
    I have a half hour "masterwork" of interviews, performance segments, rehearsal sequences, credits, etc that I've edited together complete with sound, etc.
    I also then have various other video segments from the season, some high quality (1920x1080) and some lower quality.
    Rather than import everything into Encore and have Encore transcode them all at the same quality, I wanted to ensure that the half-hour piece and certain other segments were transcoded as high quality as possible and given the largest file sizes I could and then transcode other segments at lower quality levels as needed so everything would fit on the discs.
    The company I'm using to duplicate/replicate the 100 DVDs from my Master DVD advised me to encode them FIRST in Premiere Pro as desired, and THEN import those files into Encore.
    I've used Adobe Media Encoder a lot to export the individual segments into files I could upload to Youtube and have had no problem for the last several months.
    But now, two things happen:
    1) AME automatically designates the "Output File" with an .aac extension (see attached)
    2) When I do an "Import As" of the AME encoded file in Encore it only loads an audio file (obviously)
    Huh?
    Here are the settings I use in my Export Media dialogue in Premiere Pro CS6:
    Format: MPEG2-DVD
    Preset: NTSC Widescreen High Quality
    Output Name (and filetype): ______ name with Save as Type of "Video Files(*.mpg)
    BOTH the "Export Video" and "Export Audio" boxes are checked (see attached screen print)
    Filters Tab: left as is, don't do anything here
    Multiplexer Tab:
    choose the "DVD" button (vs the "None" button)
    Bitrate Type: left as Variable which is what is selected as a default
    Video Tab:
    Codec: Reads MainConcept MPEG Video
    Quality: increase it to the max of 5
    TV Standard: NTSC
    Frame Rate: 29.97
    Field Order: None (Progressive)
    Pixel Aspect Ration: Widescreen 16:9
    Render at Maximum Depth box checked
    Bitrate Encoding: I choose CBR for my high quality segments and VBR 2-pass for my lower quality segments
    Bitrate: kick it up to the max for high qulaity segments, adjust as needed to get the filesize I want for my lower quality segments
    Audio Tab:
    Audio Format: Dolby Digital
    Codec: Dolby Digital
    Bitrate: At least 320, sometimes higher for the segments I want to be the highest quality
    I check the "Use Maximum Render Quality" box
    I chose "Queue" for everything and then let it run overnight
    And yes, the original media has BOTH a video track and an audio track that works (see Screenprint)
    So... what am I doing wrong, helpful experts????

    Larry, Mark, Jim & Bill -
    It is 1 am Tuesday morning and I'd do a primal scream if my family weren't all sleeping upstairs.
    Somewhere along the way, I either read or was given the advice to just skip AME, load my videos as timelines in Encore, and just do the transcoding there.
    I spent almost a day trying to figure out how to get "buttons" for my menus I was building (they weren't appearing in Encore's library like they should) and eventually found a simply workaround.
    So I then spent the last 24 hours or so building all my menus, creating small clips for my "motion menu" buttons, getting all that straightened away.
    Got really excited earlier tonight since it seemed like I was nearly finished and coming down the home stretch.
    I hit "build" in Encore, went away for a couple hours, and came back to find a big error message awaiting me telling me that "Encoding Failed."
    I have read a lot of posts, and the outlook is not good, or at least the possible solution not simple or short from a time perspective.
    I have a 100 families awaiting their DVD they've paid for that they initially were told they'd have by mid-February. I've been telling everybody that they would have it - guaranteed - by this weekend when there's a band festival that would be ideal for distribution. The DVD duplication company says they have to have it by Wed morning at the absolute latest. Meaning I've got about 24 hours to figure this out and burn my dual-layer masters of the two DVDs or once again tell people "I know I guaranteed you'd have it by this weekend, but I don't have it ready yet."
    Almost as importantly, I can't afford to keep spending the hours and hours and hours on this that I have. It's impacting my personal and professional life.
    Thus the primal scream.
    The posts I read about the encoding failure all pretty much advise that I use AME to do all the transcoding work. Which of course brings me squarely back to my original problem: I cannot get a video file out of AME.
    I'm embedding a screenshot of what I see when I click on the pull-down menu in the AME dialogue window. The problem: there is no MPEG2-DVD option listed to be chosen.
    Although I'm relatively new to forums, I've read enough posts by now that it seems like most people are in crisis mode when they post. So I realize my situation is not all that unique. But from a newbie rookie in the field to you experts, I REALLY could use some assistance right now, because between this and the long, cold winter we've had, I'm about to lose it.  :-)
    P.S. Mark, in answer to your question about frame rates, I have 18 different videos/films/projects that I'm including in my two DVD-set. There have probably been nearly 6-7 different cameras that have contributed footage to one or more of those films by borrowing camcorders of different brands and types and quality levels from people. Nearly every one of those 18 films have multi-camera sequences in them. And many films are collections of sequences which themselves are "nested sequences" sometimes three deep.  In otherwords, there is no way I can tell you all the various frame rates that may be represented among these 18 separate projects and I certainly can't go back and hope to change them all to the same one.
    Help. Please.  :-)

  • IMac and Premiere Pro CS6 compatability

    Hi
    I am currently importing HD footage off a DSLR Canon 60D (h.264) into an old macbook with PP CS4. I have to render every bit of footage before I can view it without juddering. Every time I add a transition or title etc, I have to render again to view it cleanly.
    It's time to upgrade.
    I'd like an iMac. I know the cost arguments, but I am not interested in buying a PC. An iMac is cheaper than a MacBook Pro, and I'd like the extra screen space.
    But I'm getting confused about what will actually happen if I try and work Premiere Pro CS6 on an iMac.
    1.Will it simply not work? Or will it just not have as good as performance as it could?
    2.Does it mean I would only lose out on the GPU processing?  With my DSLR footage, will I be able to watch it, judder free, without having to render it first?
    3.If it does still fundamentally work, at what point would it start to falter? How much would I have to have going on in a project for it to need the power of the merucry playback engine?
    4.Does anyone know IF a new iMac came out in the next two months, would it likely have the 1GB VRAM or would Adobe offer an update so that it worked with whatever the new iMac had. (eg the current top end iMac has AMD Radeon HD 6970M with 1GB, yet is not supported by CS6 - why?)
    Finally, why do Apple and Adobe have to make this so difficult?
    Many thanks for anyone's help.

    We need to make CS6 compatible with AMD 6970M, on an IMAC, thats all there is to it. Any ideas?
    You could do some experimentation and see if the OpenCL text file works the same way as the CUDA text file.  I'm betting it does, but I have no direct experience.  I think it's worth looking into tho...
    Open a new Finder window and navigate to the Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 folder.
    Right-click on the Adobe Premiere Pro CS6.app icon, and chose  "Show Contents" from the menu.
    A new window will pop open; open the Contents folder.
    Double-click on the file named: opencl_supported_cards.txt.  If it asks you what application to use to open it, select TextEdit.
    Now... be VERY CAREFUL what you type here.  Add a new line to the file and on it:  ATI Radeon HD 6790M
    That's it.  COMMAND-S to save the file, COMMAND-W to close the file, and COMMAND-Q to quit TextEdit.
    Alternatively, if you're comfortable in the UNIX environment like I am, open a Terminal.app window and do the following:
    cd /Applications/Adobe\ Premiere\ Pro\ CS6/Adobe\ Premiere\ Pro\ CS6.app/Contents
    sudo vi opencl_supported_cards.txt
    Perform the above edit in vi, then save and close the file.
    Start Premiere Pro back up and see if you have MPE available in hardware mode.  Bear in mind: you're not going to be supported by Adobe if any issues pop up due to MPE stuff... this is an aftermarket "modification" to your software.

  • Playback has frozen in Premiere Pro CS6, it started when I added some after effects compositions to

    Playback has frozen in Premiere Pro CS6.  I am running a 1080p timeline and it appeared to start when I added some after effects renders to my timeline.  The playback head still runs through the timeline and audio plays normally but the video completely stops and cannot be viewed in real time. 
    I have plenty of memory and a very good graphics card running 64Bit Windows 7.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 and MXF Compatibility.

    We have recently had a problem with audio dropping out during export using Premiere Pro CS6. This particular project file used a combination of footage from a Canon XH-A1 and a Canon XF305. It was created in CS5 (Not CS5.5) and was recently converted to a CS6 Project file. When we would export the sequence the video would have missing audio in several places.
    We think it may be a compatibility issue with the MXF conatiner used by the XF305. I have seen other people mention issues they have encountered using a similar set up. Is this something that may be a an issue for us if we move forward using CS6 and the XF305 on all of our projects?
    The problem was resolved by taking all the footage offline in CS6, deleting the render files, moving the cache folder and bringing everything back online.
    We just want to make sure that everything is compatible like it should be and if not what kind of patches we could expect in the future? It would be preferable not to have to transcode our footage prior to importing into Premiere Pro.

    I had this once too, and I "fixed" it by deleting the XMP files.

  • Premiere pro CS6.0.3 keeps crashing when exporting to H.264

    Good day everyone,
    I am trying to export my timeline using some of the H.264 setting and it keeps crashing on me. Not all of the H.264 like the Apple and Android settings.  Those work fine.  But trying to export to  H.264 Youtube (any presets), H.264 HD 1080I 29.97 and HD 1080P 29.97 it will process to around 80%-95% than crash.  It gives me an error message than gives me three files that can help with finding the problem.
    I have tried to export using Premiere and also AME.  They both crash at the same point. 
    I have tried creating new projects, new sequences and such.  No luck.
    Currently I am using Premiere Pro CS6.03, Adobe Media Encoder CS 6.03 as well.  Windows 7 64bit, Intel Core [email protected] with 8GB ram.  My video card is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670.  Any advice would be most helpful and appreciated.
    Thanks

    I solved what might be a similar problem last evening by lowering the speed of my i7-3055K (nominal 3.9GHz) to 4.2GHz from 4.5GHz.
    My symptoms were similar: new PC build (10 days old); crashing or blue screens about 1 minute into a 3 minute Premiere export or AME render, Win7 Pro.  The system had previously been very stable.  At first I suspected an H264 codec problem or an iTunes/Quicktime incompatibility but when an AVI render using the NTSC DV Widescreen preset crashed it broadened my search for solutions.  Mercury GPU render on/off did not fix the crash problem.
    The render last evening was probably the first time that my new CPU was seriously stressed.  Lowering the CPU speed was the quick solution.  Overclocking sites/forums probably have tips on stress tests, memory tests, voltage tweaking, etc but as long as the system is stable I'll probably be satisified with the slower CPU solution. 
    The CPU cooling is the Intel stock fan.  32GB of Corsair memory is running at its rated PC1600.  CPU and memory voltages are the defaults, i.e., no tweaking.  Intel DZ77RE-75K motherboard. EVGA GTX680 FTW+ 4GB at its defaults, i.e., no overclocking/tweaking.  1000 watt power supply , which is probably overkill but it's what I had lying around (I have an almost identical setup (GTX460 rather than GTX680) which runs fine at 4.2GHz with a 700-watt PSU -- but I've never stressed that 2nd PC with an Premiere/AE/AME render).

  • Premiere Pro CS6 - video noise in the exported file

    Hi everyone,
    Im trying to make the transition from FCP7 to Premiere Pro CS6. I edited my first project with Premiere Pro and exported the sequence. However I noticed that the exported file had more video noise than the original clips.
    The material is shot by Canon 5D Mark III and edited natively in the Premiere's timeline. Then they are exported to ProRes 422. After noticing the noise I exported the sequence as "match the sequence settings" and it created the .mpeg file. Same thing, there was noise. I then tried another other formats of that same clip and transcoded the Mark III footage to Xdcam EX 1080p before sending to premiere. Same thing, no matter what I did.
    The only way i got the exported file to look the same as original file, was to convert the files before sending to ProRes 422, then edit those files in Premiere in the sequence thats settings are XDCAM EX 1080p and then to export it to ProRes422.
    Do you have any thoughts for this. The noise I'm talking about is not a huge amount of noise but definitely noticeable if you look the FULL-HD material.
    I really hope there is some setting I missed. Im using Mac pro 2009 and Macbook pro 2011.
    Thanks

  • Premiere Pro CS6 crashing on daily basis

    Hello. The company I work for purchased Premiere Pro CS6 recently due to Apples direction for Final Cut.
    We have been editing a full length motion picture and being able to edit in native RED has been great. However we have been experiencing one to two or more complete crashes a day with Premier to the chagrin of our editor. I know full RED support is fairly new, but this is getting more and more frustrating as the days go by.
    We are running it on an iMac. OS 10.7.4,  i7 processor, and 8GB of RAM.  The footage is being edited from an external G-RAID hard drive via firewire 800.

    I too am experiencing serious crash woes on Premeire CS6 (.0.2). I'm working on a solid Mac Pro with a crazy fast raid setup, and Ive sunk money into extra ram and a Quadro 4000 GFX card, which has helped a few things, but overall I'm so bummed on the constant errors that hold up my day...
    1- Projects that worked the day before suddenly "encountering an error forcing Premiere to close" (politically correct way of saying "your app is crashing so save if you can jerky"). I have to save a new version of my project in another location every day at this point, which screws with my backup system.
    2- Projects that crash  when I click on a Multicam sequence.
    This week Media Encoder crashes every time I try to render something more than a few minutes long in the background while working in Premiere.
    Rarely do I have a bug free day on new setup. I'm gonna puke if I have to trash prefs & repair disk permissions again. On that note, get preference manager if you don't have it already. It's a lifesaver for this kind of crap.
    This is all Apple's fault. If Final Cut X had never been released, I'd be half way done with this doco edit by now. Premiere is such a nice app in theory, but falls so short in action...
    Any advice besides "trash prefs, repair permissions" much appreciated

  • Premiere pro CS6 export to DVD

    Hi,
    I have recently edited a film on premiere pro CS6 and it's all set to be exported. The film was shot with a 5D mark 3 @ 1920 x 1080, 24 fps. The timeline is about 160 minutes long. I have to export this to a DVD (like a classic DVD feature film with menus, subtitles etc). What export settings on premiere should I choose? I tried exporting in the .avi format but I'm getting horizontal lines (interlaced scanning) which is strange because I remember selecting the 'progressive scan' option.
    I saw a video where this guy says adobe encoder is unable to resize HD videos into DVD (720x480) format succsessfully so he uses TMPGEnc video mastering to resize it before sending it to Encore.
    Is TMPGEnc the only way around to this solution? Or is there something about premiere pro export settings that guy didn't know about, which probably the wise ones here can tell me?
    Thanks in advance,
    Kola

    Thanks a lot Ann and Jim. You both being veterans on this forum I think I'm going to try both the methods starting with Ann's workflow. I've already started the export process and it says it's encoding it. This is what I've been seeing for the last 10 minutes:
    I know you said the render bar won't show, but, here there is a bar only with no progress at all. Is this what you meant? Also, why is the CPU usage at 2% and RAM Usage at 19% when during encoding both figures hit the 50% - 60% mark?
    So anyway, I closed the window and try again and this time it returned me an error, which basically crashes premiere:
    Once again, I'm using premiere pro CC. Has this workflow been tried with CC?
    Jim, I tried your method too. I referred to this page: http://neuron2.net/www.math.berkeley.edu/benrg/avisynth-premiere.html
    I did exactly what it suggested, dropped the suggested .prm into the plugins folder. The first time I went to program > adobe > premiere cc > plug ins > common and then dropped the file there and opened premiere cc and went to export but under no option I get a 'link to avisynth' as filetype option. So then I go to program > adobe > common > plug ins > 7.0 > media core and I dump the .prm file there. I restart premiere and then go to export, same thing.
    why are things so unnecessarily complicated and the ones which are not return error? This is so frustrating, I'm going crazy here. Please help, you guys.
