    I need to export 17 hours of HD footage into 5 minute web chunks. nothing fancy, just corporate meetings….is there a way to do this automatically?
    The video is currently in one hour chunks.

    Hi Ben,

    While the “chopping up” part is not automated, you could add each segment to the Queue in Adobe Media Encoder and then they’d all render out as a batch, rather than encoding one at a time and having to baby-sit the job

    Do they each have to be in a sequence?

    Each 5-minute video does not have to begin as a unique sequence – a longer source clip can be used, and then just make the Work Area Bar in Premiere 5-minutes long, and then use Export “Work Area” and just keep moving the bar and adding more segments to the Queue.

    What I ended up doing, which worked pretty well was placing my 17 hours of footage into one sequence.

    I then ran through it cutting it into rough 5 minute pieces.

    I then ran back through and subclipped everything into a bin.

    I then queued each of them into AME with the correct render settings.

    and, 12 hours later, the render was finished.

    With an addition of sending a bunch of clips or sequences to batch render, that would be amazing. But it didn’t crash. I guarantee putting 225 clips through compressor would have crashed!!!

    WAHOO!
