Black bar showing up at bottom of screen after render
I am editing RED Epic footage. It was shot 5K WS (5120×2160) and I am editing it in Premiere Pro CS6 (6.0.1) with my sequence settings the same as shot (5120×2160). Everything worked okay until I added a transparent video track the length of the project to add a timecode counter for post. When I rendered there is now a black bar at the bottom of the screen. I can go into motion – postition settings and change it from 2560.0 1080.0 to 2560.0 1081.0 and it will move down and cover so it appears either the aspect has changed or it has shifted. I have deleted the transparent video track but that does not help.
Whenever I drag a new clip in, it will show correctly without the bar. I have tried removing effects, etc but it does not affect the bar. I have seen this on another project, any ideas on what is happening? Here’s a screen capture to give you an idea…
Thanks.

Upon further examination, it appears to be a very slight aspect shift when rendering.

In File > Export, look in the upper left of the window. For both source and output tabs on the Export window, check out your crop and scale settings.

I checked – everything looks correct. (scale to fit, no crop, etc). The issue is definitely in the sequence as I can see the thin black bar in the preview window when exporting. When I drag a new clip in, the bar is not present and the bar at the top of the sequence is yellow. When I render (Sequence – Render Entire Work Area) it turns green but the black bar shows up.

looks like I didn’t search hard enough…

I was having a similar problem importing a high-res timelapse sequence from AE CS6 to PPro CS6 via Adobe dynamic link.
I think I’ve fixed the problem by altering the sequence settings. Originally it was set for I-Frame only MPEG, now I set it for Microsoft AVI and it seems to have solved the problem.

Brendon – I know I’m close to 2 years behind this, however I ran into this problem. Found your solution. Worked great. IFrame set to only MPEG was the reason. Don’t know if it was the source but It fixed when I changed the sequence settings to Microsoft AVI
