  • Can not render to Quicktime

    Posted by Kevin Mccarthy on August 14, 2006 at 7:43 pm

    I have a 9 minute clip I want to render to Quicktime. I have spent three hours trying to complete a render. There are no transitions, no effects. Just a clip that I am trying to transcode. I tried rendering to an AVI. No problem. It took about 2 minute. The last attempt to render got to the last frame..showed 82% rendered and locked up. I have checked my external drive cables and even tried a different drive. Any suggestions?

    The different drive that you have tried, is it a local drive on your machine or is it a different external drive??

    It is a different external drive. I also tried bothdrives, reading from one, writing to another. I finally got a write error message. “did I have access to drive or was there enough room. Yes I have access and 189gigs free. Now I am trying another computer. I’ll let you know what happens. I’m still open for suggestions

    OK, I finally got it to render to quicktime. A 9 min ute piece no cuts, effects, transitions or anything took 1 hour 20 minutes and ended up being a 22Gigabite file. The audio plays in Quicktime player but the video freezes and at 22 gigs I shure can’t burn it to a data DVD tosend to another production house. I’m still open to suggestions

    Are you using the default template? I noticed that if you do… push the custom button, then the video tab… it shows video format as none… you should probably choose one from the drop down… like dv/dvcpro or sorenson video maybe

    or if you use 3Mbps template, it says…

    Audio: 48,000 Hz, 16 Bit, Stereo, QDesign compression.
    Video: 29.97 fps, 640×480, Sorenson 3 compression (best).
    Use this setting for high quality video playback from a CD-ROM.
