    Hello,

    I’ve been using Adobe Premiere CS4 for a while now and it was going great until I started shooting on HD!

    We’re filming footage on the Sony PMW-EX3 and the footage imports fine, premiere can handle editing with it etc, but when I go to export using adobe media encoder – whether it be a wmv or avi, it gets about half way through then just freezes.

    If I export it in sections, it works fine, but that’s not really useful because now if I want to get a copy of the video online, I need to burn the 3 or 4 seperate videos onto a DVD and then rip my own DVD.

    I’m on Windows Vista, 4 gig of ram memory, and a 500gb harddrive with 250gb of free space.

    Any thoughts?

    How big does the destination file get before it freezes?…there isn’t a disk fragmentation problem, is there?

    I have the same problem. EX3 material seems to play a role here. I have no problems with encoding other (e.g. raw) material, no matter what length it is. But as soon as I am encoding EX3 material and the ImporterProcessServer is reaching about 2Gig of Ram, it freezes. No matter, if I am loading the sequence direct to Media Encoder or from Premiere or via Direct Link in After Effects.
    Any solutions so far?
    I am going to phone Adobe – lets see.
