  • Export “LAG” H.264

    Posted by Vinicius Eloy bailo on September 17, 2014 at 10:07 pm

    Hello,

    I’m not a pro at editing videos on Adobe Premiere Pro, I use to do some reviews and post on youtube and now I’m doing some gameplays. But the last two gameplays that I edited had a problem, it have a kind of lag on the video that repeats some parts of the video sometimes. (Ex: minute 1:38 – https://youtu.be/UqoDcnpcumc?t=1m38s)

    I simple edit the video, like cutting, fading and adding music

    Then I click Export, select H.264 and use Youtube HD 720p 29.9fps presets and select “Queue” to use Adobe Media Encoder (because is way faster on my PC than normal exporting)

    My PC:

    CPU: AMD FX4120 BE
    GPU: Sapphire HD7850 2GB GDDR5
    Memory: 16GB 1866Mhz Kingston Fury
    MB: Asus Sabertooth 990fx

    Software:
    Record Screen: DXtory
    Editing: Adobe Premiere PRO
    Export: Adobe Media Encoder

    Thanks in advance 😀

    Usually it a codec problem of the capture software.
    Premiere does not like all codec. (and dont install codec packs)
    If possibel try to save the e.g. Lagarith codec and PCM audio.

    Hello,

    Thanks for your answer, but I’m not really expert of codecs and this kind of video stuff I use to work only with images, can you explain what should I do to indentify the error that is causing this issues ?

    Best Regards

    That’s strange, I can’t say I’ve seen that sort of thing before. To identify the source, you need to find where the problem first emerges in your workflow. In other words, if you play your raw captured video through VLC or Quicktime does it display this repeating? If not, does it happen in your Premiere Timeline? If not, does it happen on your exported video? If not, and the only place it happens is on YouTube, then it is clearly an error with YouTube’s compression.

    Also, how is this working with your audio-video sync? Is your audio in sync most of the time or is it off? If it’s off, we also need to know if that is first seen in the raw video, timeline, etc

    Hello JP,

    First of all, thank you for your help.

    Well, the raw video it’s ok, I’ve got this problem when I was editing on Premiere, I saw the problem in my timeline but I tought was temporary and was just because my computer was lagging, but when I export it, I’ve got the same problem again. I had this problem with 2 videos of 2 different games already. It could be my processor that’s not so good ?

    In that case I doubt it’s an issue with processor/general lack of power. It’s possible that as suggested before, Premiere doesn’t handle the codec. So we need to know the codec and file type. The file type you can tell by just looking at the extension on the end of the file (.mov, .mpg, .mp4, etc) and the best way to find out the codec is to right click the video in Premiere, click Properties and scroll down till you see this:

    Video track 1 contains 1 type(s) of video data:

    Video data block #1:
    Frame Size = 1920 x 1080
    Compressor = Apple ProRes 422 (HQ)
    Quality = Most (5.00)

    In this case, codec = compressor

    Here’s the data:

    Format: .AVI or .WMV (just sometimes)

    Video Codec: Fast MPEG-4 Version 2 Codec

    Hm, AVI should work fine in Premiere, not sure about WMV. I assume you’re on a PC? Was it a WMV file that exhibited this mistake in your example? The first thing I would try is using a different format and codec. I’m not sure what screen capture software you use, but somewhere in the options you should be able to change them. If not, just take the raw video and run it through Adobe Media Encoder before sending it to premiere

    I’m quite sure that the problem is with the Screen Capture software since I never had this problem with Fraps, I will also try your options, but probably I will change screen capture software.

    Can you also explain what Adobe Media Encoder is for ? I use it to export videos from Premiere, because on my computer, normal exporting is really slow even if I got a good hardwares.

    It’s a tool to transcode media. It is useful to convert video, and it also enables you to continue editing in Premiere while a video exports via AME
