Maximum project length in Premiere Pro 1.5?
I tried to export a 3h18m project in Premiere Pro 1.5 (not imported from an earlier version, but completely created in PPro) and at some point (don’t know when as I left it to render overnight) it errored out with “I/O error”. From past experience, I remember that “I/O error” in Premiere can mean a ton of things not actually associated with disk I/O; besides, I’ve tested the disk and it’s fine.
Is the project length in Premiere Pro 1.5 limited to 3 hours, or could something else be going on?
(PS: I tried searching adobe’s support to no avail)

A couple of questions:
a) What format are you exporting as? AVI? MPEG?
b) How much disk-space is available on your export drive?
c) How much disk-space is available on your C:\ drive?
d) How much disk-space is available on your scratch disks?Try defragmenting your drive to see if it solves the issue.

It’s none of that, but I’ll answer anyway to satisfy your curiousity:
– Exporting as AVI (uncompressed, using Blackmagic Design 8-bit YUV 4:2:2 codec — yes, it is huge)
– 300GB available on export drive
– Obviously not that much available on C:\ but that never is touched during the export
– Scratch is set to the same as the export driveThere is plenty of space available — I’m just wondering if Premiere Pro 1.5 has some sort of goofy limit I wasn’t aware of.
Update: I’m getting around the problem by rendering to smaller chunks and then stringing them together using avisynth, since all I need to do at this point is feed the final project to the MPEG-2 encoder I’m using… still, if there is a real cause, I’d like to know it…

The timeline in Premiere Pro is 24 hours maximum. So that isn’t the problem. It is more likely a problem with the Blackmagic drivers interaction with Premiere Pro. I have no clue which of the 2 is the real problem.

Are the disk in Fat32 or Ntfs?
