Black highlights when exporting uncompressed
Hi guys,
Hoping someone can help me out. I have been having trouble exporting uncompressed quicktimes lately and just want to know if anyone else is having this problem. I am editing on a Mac in Adobe Premiere CS6. Need to output an uncompressed to go into Smoke but when I do I get these random black highlights throughout the video. I am exporting with the following settings:
Format: Quicktime
Codec: Uncompressed YUV 10 bit 4:2:2
Frame Rate: 25
Field Order: Progressive
Aspect: Square PixelsI have included an image as an example of an affected shot.
Any help would be great
Cheers

Are there effects applied to these clips? Do you have “maximum depth” checked or unchecked at output? Does it make a difference if you use hardware versus software MPE in Project Settings?
As an alternate, have you considered exporting a DPX sequence from Pr to bring into Smoke?

Hi Walter,
Yes there is a warp stabiliser and a fast colour correction effect applied. With the fast colour correction turned off the clip exports fine but this is as expected because without the correction the sky is underexposed and this problem only happens to things that are bright (100% white).
I’ve tried exporting with and without MPE but this does not make a difference. Same with maximum depth, on or off does not make a difference.
We did end up exporting DPX to Smoke but I still don’t understand why an uncompressed quicktime should be so hard to make.
Thanks for your reply by the way
