exporting damaged file
Hello,
I shot some footage last week that was not appearing on my hard drive from my SD card. There was a problem because i shut down the recording device quit abruptly. I used Phoenix video stellar recovery software to open the file and import into premiere. The file footage looks just fine when I played it back and edited it within premier but when I try to export (using mp4 codec in media encoder) I get nothing but a weird red & green screen in the encoding window of my media encoder window. agh? is there a way for me to export it cleanly?

Export as a still sequence… Delete any corrupt frames… Import the still sequence and see what happens.

Try and export to an intermediate codec first, such as Cineform or DNxHD. If that comes out okay, then convert that file to an .mp4 format.
Or – render the timeline (to green) then Export with “Use Previews” checked. Make sure the preview render codec is something decent first, not “MPEG”.
Thanks
