  Exported MPG playback problems in WMP

  Posted by Eric Vinyard on July 10, 2012 at 5:26 pm

  This is a problem I don’t recall experiencing with older versions of Premiere; it also can be averted by using a different media player, such as VLC. That being said, suggesting the use of a different media player only masks the problem, it does not solve it.

  Windows 7 64-bit
  Windows Media Player 12
  Premiere Pro CS 5.5.2

  Exporting any sequence to any type of multiplexed .mpg results in a file that experiences infrequent but noticeable skipping/hitching/jumping in both the audio and the video. Exporting to de-multiplexed streams and then multiplexing them in a program like TMPGEnc creates a file that plays smoothly with no skipping.

  I would like to enlist the help of the community to figure out exactly what the problem is – not to find a cumbersome workaround. I need to ensure that .mpg playback exported from Premiere – for distribution purposes – is compatible with any basic media player, especially the one included in the Windows OS.

  Edit: .m2t (MPEG2 Blu-Ray) files do not seem to be suffering from this playback issue.
