    Besides the temperature outside last week here is my new problem.

    I am trying to turn my 72 minute project into an .avi to put into Encore. As I try to export the project to a movie the project renders to about 90% complete and then freezes. It freezes my whole computer. The same things happens when I try to use the media encoder.

    I have tried most work arounds. I have tried to turn the last parts of the project into .avi’s themselves and then place them back into the project and I get the freezing effect with this. Towards the end of my project I have a lot of titles. One is a scrolling credits title that is about 1 minute long. I changed a lot of the still I had into .avi’s so I wouldn’t run into my ongoing jpeg problem.

    I took my system off the Internet (I had it connected, but rarely, if ever, went online), I uninstalled Norton.

    What else can I do? What else can I get rid of or changed in my cpu to have this project render. BTW – I have been working on this project for 4 months. I am ready to be finished, but I can get it to go!!!! Help me.

    Are you running the production studio? if you are there is no need to render your movie first. Encore will open the Premiere Pro file…

    I forgot to mention, Jack, that I have multiple sequences in the project and I only want to do the second sequence.

    Is there a way I can pull a sequence from a PP project and get it into Encore without rendering it? That would be good. Then I can work up a menu and transcode it in Encore. Thanks for your help so far.

    When you try to import the file, from what I remember you should be able to select what sequence you want to import to Encore. If not just save that one sequence in premiere as a different file name.

    I was wrong again. I checked Encore and no matter what you do you must export an .avi or mpeg2 into Encore. You can’t simply move the sequence right into Encore.

    Therefore, I am back to square one. I need to find a way to finish exporting this project to an .avi or mpeg2.

    In my task manager what things can I turn off so they are not running in the background? Maybe if I turn some things off that are running that might help get me through.

    Thanks

    If your running 1.5, get the 1.51 update.

    Mike,

    Can I download that? Where can I get 1.51? Also, will it screw up anything I have done so far?

    Thanks

    Okay, I downloaded it. Should I expect things to work or is there a certain setting that needs to be done.
    You guys have been great so far. Thanks

    No, you can not import Premiere Pro 2.0 Timelines directly into Encore DVD 2.0.

    You can however import After Effect 7.0 compositions into Premiere Pro 2.0 and Encore DVD 2.0 with Dynamic Link if you have Adobe Production Studio installed.

    The update WORKED!!! I believe I need to buy Jack Black some Jack…..Daniels, that is.

    I am now into my menu making in Encore. After two days of pulling my hair (limited hair at that) I can get crankin. Thanks Creative Cow board!!! I was almost going to call Adobe; I didn’t want to be told to reinstall everything.

    Thanks again
