  • Cannot create Large Uncompressed Quick Time file from Premiere

    Posted by Chris Lieber on August 5, 2007 at 12:10 am

    I need to export a file out of Adobe Premiere and for some reason large files will not export as Uncompressed Quick Time files. When I say large, I mean video segments over about 3 minutes or so (3.5 gigs and above). On our last short movie I was able to create the file but for some reason my computer is not allowing me. The file craps out at 99.8% complete and says that the file is not a VALID Video File. Is there a reason for this?? I actually created a set of smaller Uncompressed QT files then put them in a new timeline. I rendered them and then exported again. At the end, I got the same error message. Does anyone know why this is happening and what the work around is?? I need to get the file to a post house to make a Digi Beta tape and only have a week to get this done.

    Many thanks in advance.

    Hello,

    This sounds like you are exporting the referance file for “Quicktime”, not an actual video file. But the referance file.

    Please re-check your Quicktime files and make sure it is not ouputting the Quicktime as a “reference file”, I have seen this error before and it is the exact same issue you are experiencing.

    I am going into File/Export Movie => Settings/General => File Type = Quick Time

    Embedding Options = Project

    Video => Compressor = None / Color Depth = Millions of Colors

    Key Frame and Rendering => Rendering Options = No Fields (Progressive Scan)

    Optimize Stills = checked

    Where is the “reference” file at?

    Thanks

    QT 7 is not compatible with Adobe. that is why everyone is having problems. I uninstalled 7 and reinstalled 6.5. now everything works….

    I think I am going to have to spread the gospal about this revelation. QT 7 is the devil that’s for sure….

    thanks for the reponse though

    I believe that 7.1 is fine but the current 7.2 is fouling things up.

    Seems everytime a new quicktime is released it only affects adobe editing products. Something seems a bit suss there.

    Sounds like you are using a FAT32 formatted disk which has a file size limit of just under 4G. Try a NTFS formatted disk or exporting to a compressed fomat.
