Infoseite // [RESOLVED] Media Encoder can not render a particular point in the project.

Frage von jonobo:


Greetingz @ All.

As a premiere Noob I have my first project created in Adobe Premiere CS 4 and wants it now with the help of Adobe Media Encoder to export CS 4th

The Project consists of a screen capture with which I have recorded a flight from google earth (; with audio commentary), plus there are a few holiday snaps and some background music. A few fades and zooms, otherwise no great effect of spectacle, just a beginner project for testing.

If I then export the sequence, open the Media Encoder and rendering after clicking "start queue" on synonymous going good. Unfortunately, it breaks after a while with the popular error message "Failed to create the film. Unspecified error".

I naturally have not given up the same, but once tried in the sequence shorter ranges to choose and to export it, and it worked synonymous few times - so I've started a list making and note which parts can be exported, and which not - several times I thought I would have found the cause, but then every time I wanted to render the whole project is the Media Encoder again got out early, and although always s.der same place - so I had a look at this point in the Project listen carefully.

It is exactly the place where the first cut is the screen capture video was cut off and there are three still images / .JPGs - the audio of the screen captures was synonymous cut off, but then decoupled and reduced a bit, making it even before the 3 still images ceases. I can export the project before this point, and I can export the project to this point. If I turn off the audio track with the voice, I can have a portion of the Project Export synonymous with the place (and the front and rear body selected plus 10 seconds) - but the whole project without any voice audio track does not work again.

Even worse, I have all the rendering tests collected in a folder, and was in a previous attempt almost rendered the whole video, including the agency which now causes problems - so I thought "those days" (, so around 10 hours) synonymous, that next problem would be back in my Time-lapse movie (; removed the safe side for troubleshooting and is not synonymous really needed).

Empty frames, so no points s.den Picture is I could not find. I have tried synonymous times the Project without the last frame and without the first frame to render. I tried out whether it is s.der length of the section, which I try to render (and I thought maybe the reason of XY too long or the file is too large, but actually is 400 GB of internal disk and the video only 7.5 minutes).

I am firmly of the audio link - deleted and video track, so I could move them independently of each other - but that should still be easily possible, or not?

There is still synonymous with the second audio track of background music running in the loop. If I disable, I still can not render the whole project.

So there must be somewhere s.den images - or can synonymous disabled audio tracks cause problems?

I delete so as a test all the audio clips and precaution synonymous all audio tracks - the track on which the voice will however not be deleted - it does appear to at least one audio track to be found - I insert a new one, and delete the old vocal track so that no audio track is present, which has something to do with the audio before any existing problems (and I do not know yet always sure whether the problem at all s.den audio tracks is). So now I render the project without any sound: the work not at all - neither a short piece on "the place", a short distance s.einer else, yet the entire Project. Hmm ...

You can cut on rough set NEN Sound ... renders it all out without a sound and packed s.Schluss just underneath the mixed sound

Antwort von jonobo:

Thanks for the reply.

I admit my post was long and confusing - but that debugging does sometimes indicated.

In this respect, your answer was indeed a good motivation to continue learning, but no help with my troubleshooting.

Ahem - in "the other" post I have in my Noobheit another Noob question answered one question but found none. Have you verwechstelt probably because it's late first, second, and just somehow my name was in turn the thread because I have recently posted as.

Quote: then you come in next two questions significantly
I asked a question only (see above).

Quote: learned for the future.

This is exactly the plan, and learn as my favorite pastime is synonymous of being implemented.

Quote: You deal with you

- Pixel conditions

Very happy:)

Resolutions are not so difficult, is not synonymous format, codecs synonymous not pixel ratios not synonymous - is complicated all this only if Premiere thousand different format to aggregate, since coming schonmal containing programmatically fault.

Color depths, I've not yet looked at.

With mencoder under Linux I had read about but synonymous, but the program is doing things as they were in the Instructions (manpage) is, and what does not work if there is a useful error message. It is simply unprofessional exit without error message.

But with mencoder it simply is not so beautiful, "compose" as with the premiere and we all do, after all - Pixel works of highest quality. I have respect for Adobe's work - but it can on such a complex program, not everything work for everyone - and I just somehow drawn containing the A-map and me must be the same for my noob-Project with such a bugged S ** ** rumschlangen.

Quote: Do you think you see next coarse rules
- Add on the concept, together

From the rough rules, I can agree to two:
- Concept to join (I have not yet, but simply tried everything)
- Working in good quality (I've even tried my Google Earth Screen Capture has an Resolutionvon 1648x832, the photos are great, recorded the audio tracks, clean, noise-free, EQD and compressed - the export format was now only to test a chosen something worse )

"Steps and conditions" and "bring everything to a common denominator" is too general to me, or you referring to a specific tutorial with the golden Premiere steps that I ought to know?

is that as synonymous, thanks for the tips - - - and I am not of course went to sleep - but let that Media Encoder ('d like MEncoder) still create test renderings of different settings of my NoobSequenz and the problem will be as long as circling logical, until I catch: )

So if you are still "old hands" tips on the way you or anyone here simply zuföllig langstolpert the "solution" has, for example because it once had a similar problem - then I am happy.



Antwort von B.DeKid:

A TIP I HAVE YET

A ME is for the bottom ;-)

The only renders waste

Employees up times with AviSynth, Virtualdub and Scripts ... synonymous then understand what I meant ;-)

And Sorry that I have confused you - hope you can still take something with.

Antwort von jonobo:

A ME is the only way the Project to Export from Premiere - or have I missed what the fundamental?

You mean something s.besten lossless from Premiere (probably with A or ME) then compress and export mux happy with the choice of his favorite encoder and.

That sounds reasonable, only lubricates the A ME export probably synonymous with the lossless from my project - but I will check first morning.

If in doubt I can do my little Project synonymous again from scratch and test between it is whether the export is still working.

Argh:]



Antwort von Jörg:

Now just take the statements of the child is not so serious, it's Sunday morning and from AME ...;-(( he has no idea

It is in the use of jpegs in CS4 / 5 indeed appeared to some problems I had synonymous with a Project.
If not already done so, check the project again for gaps, (you create this in the Keyboard Preferences-> Edit-> Keyboard Customization-> sequence-> next hole ... a shortcut.)
convert the jpeg to png, test if you can then render this area, if so, it is synonymous exported.
If not, you can sign up, but I think that will be enough.

Jaaaaaaa - a useful reference: D

Thank you.

Will I make.

Also I'll try.

Thanks for the advice, I let you know how it is run - probably tomorrow.



Antwort von jonobo:

Tach again:]

I have replaced the now times. JPGs to PNGs, and the posts with the pictures I could render, but not the whole Project.

That is why I keep on searching for possible sources of error and check next to my basic video clip (recorded by a local flight in Google Earth).

I have the clip, we call him in Linux screencast.avi recorded by screen capture and then packed into a format that really should not cause any problems here, sometimes the data of the clip:
File Name: screencast.avi
Resolution: 1648x832
Frame rate: 15 fps
video codec: HuffYUV 422P
Duration: 00:07:31:11
Audio Codec: PCM / Raw / .wav
audio bitrate: 16 bits
Audio Quality: 44100Hz
Channels: Mono

Test, I have now created an empty Premiere Project with a new sequence (720x576, 25fps, 48000Hz, Stereo) and simply imported screencast.avi - and without changing anything directly exported again, and indeed with the following settings:
Format: H.264
Export Video: yes
Export Audio: yes
Codec: MainConcept H.264 video
TV standard: PAL
Resolution: 720x576
Frame rate: 25fps
Audio: AAC, 128kbps, 48000Hz, Stereo

This export works fine.

As soon as I but the "link" between the video - and canceling audio track, can no longer export the entire working area of the sequence. As soon as I cut some parts and put in the Screencast.avi move, can not export the entire working area of the sequence.

Can it be? If something before? Why might that be? How can I change it? How can I check whether it screencast.avi in the video file is a mistake? How can I find out whether the error s.Premiere s.Material or Adobe or my settings wrong? Would it bring something the same screencast.avi premiere in a different format to be delivered?

Somehow it all makes very little sense and I ask myself all the time whether I'm just very strange bad luck that just my system configuration is incompatible in some way - the other - will work out the most, but not enough to work stable.

If I do not get solved, I'll install me the test version of Avid Media Composer 5 and see how things are - wants the other hand, do not give up I and solve the problem strictly because the me-you "old" Premiere Pro CS4 for my purposes more than sufficient.

I am therefore still on guidance, but I will of course synonymous next experiment - maybe I'll uninstall the whole synonymous CS 4 again, and then apply CleanUpScripte install and start fresh, and although only Premiere and Photoshop, I remember that is very vague s.irgendeine error message during installation in any of the packages, since there are sooooo maybe a relationship, though I doubt it.

Maybe I should just try whether there is a problem synonymous when I down load any standard-compliant video file and so rumschnipsle, or a video ONLY from .JPGs / .PNGs do - because if all goes well, would be clear that it's somehow . my screen capture experiment is. Only I would not accept it as synonymous end of the experiments, but either convert the file with VirtualDub on Windows or Linux with MEncoder to other format and then try it out with.

Argh ² ³!

will create a desktop project with exactly this data, export your audio separately, put this new file to replace the audio track and export it to your desired format.

That what you do here is not work done on this problem. You throw all sorts here in a pot, which is not necessarily related gehört.Das no benchmark for a test program.

Quote: Maybe I should just try whether there is a problem synonymous when I down load any standard-compliant video file and so rumschnipsle

a brilliant idea, but "rumschnipseln" not just so, but format-compliant projects / create sequences, and
accurate arbeiten.Premiere you with every possible material compliant to work.






Antwort von jonobo:

Hi Jörg, thanks for the tips.

I now have first test as a video only. JPGs created and it exports, it all worked perfectly.

Now I just let myself of my VirtualDub Screencast.avi render without audio track. The audio track I have as a single, post-processed. Wav file. We'll see whether that will be re-unified.

Quote: That what you do here is not work done on this problem.

Yes, to me is synonymous slowly realized that I have started here with a rather strange combination for a noob Test Project. But the idea of the Google Earth screen capture seemed to start as a simple method to quickly come s.cooles pictures.

Quote: Format-compliant projects / sequences create

Yes, I was probably a bit sloppy, I was in my naivety first assumed that Premiere just eats everything I throw inside - and hope that later I realize how I throw together from various sources s.besten clips.

Quote: will create a desktop project with exactly this data, export your audio separately, put this new file to replace the audio track and export it to your desired format.

I'll try it right now, because VirtualDub has just finished counted.



Antwort von jonobo:

Okay - partially successful experiment.

So I have a new desktop project created with custom settings:
Resolution: 1648 x 832
Frame rate: 15 fps
Sample rate: 44100 Hz / Stereo

Then I imported my audio free Screencast.avi with the same values, and separately the corresponding, post-processed audio track with 44100Hz.

I have given then some. JPGs import, use some transitions, a music soundtrack and both imported audio tracks also provided with track effects.

When I had first tried to export the whole by H.264 codec to compress and with a Resolutionvon 720x576 25fps and in an MPEG-4 AVContainer ship, but that failed.

So I pulled the format and exports the result with the help of the Project v2.1.1 HuffYUV codecs in an AVI AVContainer and thereby maintain the Resolutionvon 1648x832 exactly like the sample rate was exported from the uncompressed audio left at 44100Hz. It worked and I now have a functioning 10.7GB. AVI with an approximately 8-minute film.

Now I have to get the thing only small yet - but at least it is exported.

Thanks anyway for the admonitions to the strict format to comply - although I am somewhat disappointed that the All-feeding mode of Premiere to increase my expectations. On the other hand, it is logical that for Premiere is a huge computational effort an 8GB file is converted when imported to another Resolutionund frame rate, and the converted file then when you export to encode again - the end then, first in quality loss and increased second, the probability of crashes .

Has anyone a tip on the way, as I Project as uncomplicated compressed into a PAL format 720x576er get exported with 25fps?
Or should I rather do with an external tool?
(The whole DVD will be one, so I eventually s.die Resolutionran ...)


... Oh, and I just remembered that the AME supposedly works reliably when he finished files of feeding the plate, I might even try it out - so the first export in my strange format and then import the result, in turn, AME and see if he grabs it.

Have just VirtualDub looked at, and that seems synonymous to be quite useful, at least for -. AVIs, can I give me a Video> Filters -> Add -> resize grab, New size -> relative -> 43.7% x 43.7% and Framing Options -> Letterbox / crop to size 720x576 and I have already activate in black bars surrounded the film transforms the right size without distortion. Unfortunately, I do not have any MPEG-2 Export option in my system and I just synonymous, the audio uncompressed or with strange codecs (mp3 wtf in a maximum of 54kbps?) - I must have time to install proper codecs, as I at the Premiere installing first all the codec packs have deinstall and are currently installed along with Windows-only codecs onboard HuffYUV 2.1.1 and LameXP. Oh, and now I see in VirtualDub Wikipedia article that there are a few plugins for VirtualDub provide the MPEG-2 and AAC support. Tomorrow I will try it - but maybe I have it because with the AME be easier;)

Greetz,

J

my expectations are too high zBnicht s.Premiere, at least I got in the last still handles all that was not infinite distribution material.
But I expect not synonymous 15fps footage in 25 fps if you opt wider export ... which then ultimately have on a DVD, you'll complain about the judder will come from where the missing 10Bilder?

Again, my tip:
Remember the first time any other Programs and crutches to work, you very sensible one in Premiere, gather experience and knowledge, then it works already.



Antwort von jonobo:

Quote: which will come from the missing 10Bilder?

Best by doubling, then it is not theoretically (that 'no preference whether a picture for 1 / 15 seconds is displayed or whether to appear in the same time, two pictures) - that would go but only for a 30fps NTCS DVD.
But I would have the option of the Google Earth screen capture again with 12.5 fps, or right to let go with 25fps.

The other option is simply not the DVD-slavery subject, especially since it's only here for a Friends-&-Family-Fun-Project is - and who up to my grandma all synonymous Calculator. The DVD version would be the grandmother, and the notes probably not if it jerky - so I can use VirtualDub synonymous with the 15fps to 25fps of projected version:)

I think the google earth flight will take just continue, and this time directly with 25fps and a capture window size of 720x576.

Conclusion: If you want perfect results, then you Acquire the perfect source material.

Thank you for the hints & tips.

You will get closer to the ideal ;-))

Hello!

You can use the GE flight in a separate project to render the format with which you work, you have to capture it again not new.
If I get different format, frame numbers, resolutions, field dominance, ..... and so did I bring the Materiel always external to the same "language". This is all the more important the larger your current project is outlined.
I was with jpegs and mp3s many times the problem that the timeline was always hanging over it that synonymous s.dieser body or render the ME would not. Remedy: appropriate file where it is stored copy, rename, import, edit and again.

LG, on-axis



Antwort von jonobo:

Hi again,

and again thanks for the tips.

I have the thread as solved but extra marks, but if you want to throw me continue with such useful advice I do not mind:]

I have my little test project now completed - of just front to back in lossless format with 1648x832 resolution continuous, and the resulting single 10GB file just loaded again in the AME and scaled down to a torrent-ready size.

I have learned one thing in each case: Pixel size salad is unhealthy.

Gruezi,
