Green Band Across my Movie!!! Why Oh Why??
Hi
First time post! I have been editing a movie form a PAL 4:3 capture in a PAL 4:3 project. Everytime I add a transition I get a green band along the bottom of the clips effected in the transition. Also if i change anything in a clip (opacity, brightness etc) I get a black band on the bottom of the clip that’s been changed. Both these happen after I have rendered.
I have Win Xp, P4, 1GB ram, multiple internal and external hard drives.
Also, I can’t burn a DVD the system always stops on the “Assembling” stage.
help please as I have a showing of the movie on Saturday 17 June…. time is indeed short!

What transition are you applying? Are these images by any chance?

Nope, just 2 normal avi clips.

– Are you using Premiere standalone with a default DV preset, or in combination with a 3rd party card (Matrox, Canopus, etc)? Or are you using a custom project preset with a different codec, perhaps?
– what transition(s) cause the green band?
For the DVD encoding issue, have you tried exporting out to an ISO file instead of burning directly to disk? From the ISO file, you should then be able to burn the contents with a variety of different DVD burning apps.

Premiere Stand alone default DV setting with built in codec. Dissolve transitions give a green band and any changes to the clip gice black band. Then when DVD is burned all the untouched clips have a green band and the tweaked clips (brightness etc) have a black band. I’ll try the ISO solution Thanks for your help on this!

Hmm… sounds like your DV encoder is corrupting frames while rendering. (I think the decoder’s okay, since you only seem to see this on things that have some sort of effect/filter applied.) Quick test to confirm: try creating a new PAL project, and right-click in the project window- new clip – color bars or universal counting leader, drop that on the timeline & drop the opacity slightly. Hit enter to render preview the timeline – if it renders messed up, we know it’s the encoder.
Assuming the above, now, the next question – how does the encoder get corrupted? This has me a little stumped. Premiere uses the Main Concept codec for DV – do you have a separate installed version of it on your system? Or possibly another 3rd-party codec that could be trumping the default?
