  • HELP! Compressor Failed QuickTime Error:0 & Audio dropouts

    Posted by Anthony Anderson on June 23, 2005 at 4:35 am

    I have a 2hr program that my client wants mastered to DVD-5. When I export using compressor (I am encoding at 3.4 Mbps average 2 Pass VBR) usually durring the second pass I will get a Quicktime Error:0 in Batch Monitor. I dont know what this error means. I also have a problem when I export audio for A.Pack I lose audio when I have more than 4 audio tracks playing. Even though the audio renders ok in FCP. And of course this project is behind schedule and I’m getting heat from the boss.

    Please Help Me! I have faith in the Cow’s Experts

    I see no one responded & I have no advice except to say keep retrying the batch – sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t.

    This is a bug that’s been driving me nuts this year. In previous versions of Compressor, I NEVER had failed batches, but ever since the new version I have more failures than successes with it. It’s incredibly hard to run a studio with a program as flaky as Compressor has become! I’ve tried a number of different things – restarting, force rendering in the FCP timeline, re-exporting fresh movies for compression, exporting straight from FCP, self-contained movies, reference movies, running compressor with no other apps open, etc. Everytime I think I’ve found the secret, it just goes and fails on something else.

    I really wish this topic was discussed more ’cause I know I’m not the only one that is frustrated by it!
