To render, or not to render ... exporting to a Master File question.

Hi again
What's the best workflow with regards to rendering? Specifically:
Will exporting to a Master File do exactly the same amount of rendering as selecting 'Render All', and then exporting to a Master File?
If so, if I render all my clips / transitions first and then export to a Master File, should it export very quickly (as no further rendering is required)? I appreciate this will use up more disk space as it will have to create all the render files, and then create a 'flattened' version of the whole project in the Master File.
If I've understood things correctly so far, is it generally best to render everything before exporting to a Master File? Otherwise if you had created the Master File from an un-rendered timeline, but then needed to tweak a tiny part of the project, you would have to re-render everything when exporting the Master File again?
Many thanks for any tips / advice!
David
PS. I'm always optimising my media first.

Hi Dan
I don't know to be honest I'm thrilled with the newfound speed of this machine, everything just happens so much faster! In the end I re-rendered my entire project, and what took almost 3 days of practically 24-hour rendering on my old laptop (running overnight, taking the computer to work with me and letting it run during the day), this new machine finished the whole thing in 3 hours!
By the way, I've been using the G-Drive Mini 1TB 7200rpm drives and find they perform extremely well over USB 3:

I don't have any multicam stuff in my project, but for general projects these drives should be absolutely fine.
Cheers!

Could not complete the export command because the file could not be found

When I try to save for web, Photoshop pops up a dialog box that says "could not complete the export command because the file could not be found".
What is the solution for this?

Please provide more information (Photoshop version, OS, target volume, …).
Does the file’s or one of the folders’ name contain problematic letters (slash etc.)?
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?

I have 10.0.3, why can I no longer export to vimeo? also, my quicktime movies are not compressed, they export as the whole file.

I have 10.0.3, why can I no longer export to vimeo? also, my quicktime movies are not compressed, they export as the whole file. this didn't happen before the update. do i have to now get compressor? help.

You should buy Compressor it never fails. It is a must have. I have given up using this buggy Share function and use Compressor all the time.

Export as a master file FOR Youtube?

I want to export my videos for uploading to Youtube, however at the moment the file size is enormous (we're talking 6gb for a 4 minute video), which of course takes forever to upload.
I want to export it as a master file, rather than exporting it directly to youtube within FCPX, because I want to have an actual copy of the file on my computer, as well as the fact that I've been having some trouble with the youtube sign in through FCPX, so basically I've just been export in as a Master File with all the default settings for 1080p.
Anyway, what settings should I use to get a good quality video that isn't so enormous that it takes ages to upload?
Sorry, I'm pretty new to this, and kind of teaching myself as I go along.
When uploading to Youtube, it suggests uploading a different format for faster processing/uploading...
So I clicked the link to the help centre where it talked about how to encode the video. But I'm still trying to learn all this, so I'm not sure if this is something I need to do when i first start the Project, or if there are settings I should change when I export it as a Master File, or if there is something I've just missed altogether.
I'll include screen shots of Youtube's recommendations.
Any help or advice would be hugely appreciated Thankyou!

My suggestion: keep it simple.
The simplest way is to export a master file AND also export to youtube. There is nothing preventing you from making several exports of the same material!
(As it happens, you can also do this "double export" in one fell swoop, using destination bundles - but, again, keep it simple; you can learn that later).
Anyway, you certainly don't need Compressor. Compressor is only useful if you need something specific that FCP X can't directly provide - but that usually means an experienced user who knows his/her way around the arcane compression options - in other words, complex stuff.
If you don't want to use FCP X to export directly to youtube: just export a Master File, but instead of the default (which is ProRes, and, as Karsten explained and you acutely felt, produces massive files), choose H264. Then upload via the youtube site.

Export region as audio file question

When you do this export does it include for eg: compressor, EQ...? It seems I did this but the volume is lower than what It was when I listened in Logic.

Tony,
The export as audio track feature does include any plug-ins that are enabled on that channel. Automation however, is not included.
As far as volume being lower, how did you listen to that new audio file? Did you import it back into Logic into a new track? If so, was it's fader at the same level as the original track? If you listened to it from within the audio window, be aware that anything playing through the audio window (by activating the speaker icon), plays out of the first audio object in your environment, and where that fader is positioned. And if you listened to it in the Finder, well that's dependent on your macs system sound settings...

How to fix CS6 from crashing when trying to save as/export as an .idml file?

Tried the old faithful of restarting etc and using a single page with not styles etc or anything really, the most basic file but everytime CS6 keeps crashing.
Any pointers on how to try and work around this?
Running CS6 on 10.9.4

After following this http://www.tech4pub.com/2012/10/10/indesign-tip-reset-preferences-to-improve-performance/
Indesign does not crash after exporting as a .idml file but can open the file without the following:
But when I exported an idml from CC I could open with no problem, hmmm.

Option in properties panel: render - export a bitmap

Hi - just come across this.
Therefore should we always use render - export as bitmap - it will be kinder on all CPUs of all platforms.???
When would I not use it then?
I suppose I can - but can I code this in ie: character.exportAsBitmap at design time or is it ONLY for mcs on stage. ie: Can I import mcs an apply that???
Cheers

I understand that you need the newest version (InDesign CC 2014.1) to accomplish what you want with EPUB.
But if you have a Creative Cloud subscription, you can download BOTH that version (the current one) AND also install InDesign CC (which came out in 2013), as well as InDesign CS6. All can be installed simultaneously!
As I described above, I think you unintentionally muffed it by installing a trial on top of your installation. Both should be uninstalled.
Then with Creative Cloud install the latest version and make sure it's working.
To download an older version from Creative Cloud, select the Apps menu in the CC application. Scroll down till you see "Filters & Version" In that section, you will see the older versions which you can also install.

Premiere/Media Encoder can't render/export after 10.9.3 update. Any Answers?

My computer ran the OSX 10.9.3 update a couple nights ago, and suddenly Premiere/Media Encoder can not export. It just freezes up the computer until I cold crash it. Same if I try to render a timeline in Premiere. This issue just started yesterday. It still persists after wiping my hard drive and doing a clean install of everything, which of course just put 10.9.3 back on there. This issue does not exist on my laptop that has not been updated yet. However, I have enough work and not enough time to be trying to edit everything on my laptop while this get worked out. Has anyone else got this issue in the past day or two?

Hey Todd,
I had two active projects that suddenly could not render/export. One is quite massive and has RG Colorista quite a bit throughout it, however I could not export a timeline without any plugins on it. The other project is also clean of plugins. Then I started a new project and it went out just fine until I put the RG plugin on it. But here is my newest glitch. I just made a change to an old show and all of my titles done in Title Tool were resized and positioned. Blown up and shifted to the right. If I take the same file and put it on my laptop which still has not got 10.9.3, they are just fine. Scaled properly and centered between title safe. But now on 10.9.3 they are blown up and going off the screen.

I'm looking for someone to render (export) a final cut X project for me.

I'm looking for someone to render (export) a final cut X project for me. I am running FCX on my MB air & it works surprisingly well for small projects. However, I have a 4 minute video that is outside of the limits of my machine. I am assuming there is a way to dropfile the project & have someone else export it for me & dropfile it back to me as a HD video I can post on Vimeo. I am willing to pay for this service.

I may not be doing this correctly, I created the new library & when I tried to copy the the clips it said this:
You are editing compound clips or multicam clips between libraries.
Final Cut Pro will copy files and create new parent clips in the library "Movies".
The new clips will be independent of the original parent clips.
Media stored in external folders will be linked to but not copied.

I can't render/export.

Have been constantly trying to render/export my video since this morning. Couldn't do so after editing brightness and contrast.

If Tento's advice does not work, work your way through this doc.

PE 4 crashes on render, export and preview with Vista 64 bit

I just installed my PE 4 on a new Windows Vista 64 bit machine with the i7 920 processor and 512 MB ATI Radeon video card. PE 4 worked fine on my XP machine but I cannot get it to render, export or even let me preview on this new maching. I have followed the advise of updating all drivers and software and uninstall and reinstalling with nothing running and I get the same error repeatedly - it will render and progress for about 5 seconds and then I get "Adobe Premiere Elements.exe has stopped working" and it closes. The video clips are from a flash memory camera and the Presets set for widescreen - flash memory. Everything works normally until I try to view or render the files. Any suggestions?

You say this is from a flash memory camcorder? Can you be more specific?
Webbie camcorders, like the Flip, may shoot in hi-def, but they also record to a non-standard codec that can cause some of the problems you're describing.

Easiest way to use multiple computers for render/export?

So, for tools like Vegas, Premiere etc you can have a render far, that would help you render/export clips potentially cutting down render time from 40+ hours to mere hour or two.
I have a couple of macs available on the network that i would like to try do the same with, at least cut it down in half or 1/3 of what it is taking now.
What is the best/easiest way to go about doing this?
Thanks

Hi(Bonjour)!
You can do that with Final Cut Studio with Compressor and by build a quick clusters render farm. Ask on Compressor forum.

Premiere CC 2014 not completing an export of h.264 or quicktime video

Hi everyone,
Did anyone experience this before? The export seem to stop indefinitely after 1 or 2% never at the same time and its happening when I export with the following export settings: 2014-11-26_0628 - Webamp's library on CC 2014.1 and the last version. I made sure to upgrade Premiere and Encoder to the latest version.
The sequence is about 50 minutes long with multiple sequences and a few audio files.
I'm running this on a 64bit Windows 7 machine. Never had a problem before on either Premiere version. Note that I had tried exporting to Media encoder but the same thing would happen it would just stop after a few percentage.
I tried restarting my PC, no idea why this was happening.
Also it was happening on other shorter video sequences (different projects) i was trying to render/export but it finally worked after a few tries, but i can't seem to get this one working yet.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you
Patrick

Group Header is not repeating when exported to pdf in 2008 r2

Hi
i have a typical scenario here , when i am trying to repeat my group header it is working fine in report viewer but when i exported to pdf it is not repeating. yea it is working fine in excel.
could some one help me in this as i tried various ways but couldn't able to figure it out
PS: i am using 2008r2
if this is the issue in 2008r2 , did it got fixed in any new version please suggest.
thanks
sharath

Hi sharath,
Based on my understanding, the group header doesn’t repeat when you export report to PDF file.
In Reporting Service, the RepeatOnNewPage property has effect on static row members only and where KeepWithGroup is not None. If value for KeepWithGroup is None, the group header will not appear in a new page. As we tested in our environment, we set FixedData
as True, KeepWithGroup as After and RepeatOnNewPage as True, the group header repeat in second page when export to PDF file. Please refer to screenshot below:
So in your scenario, please check if you have set KeepWithGroup as After. Then export to PDF again to check if group header can repeat in multiple pages. If issue persists, please provide some detail information about your report design. If possible, please
provide some screenshots about your results before and after perform PDF render.
Reference:
Display Headers and Footers with a Group (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,
Qiuyun Yu
