Nested Sequences cause Crash

[David Roth weiss]

[Phil Mariasy] “Has anyone experienced Premiere crashing when sending sequences with nested sequences to Media Encoder? This is happening routinely with me.”

It seems that most NLEs have some issues with nested sequences. You’re better off exporting your timeline as a single file and using that file as a master to encode any other file types from Media Encoder.

Phil,

I have not and I spent about 8 months working on a web series with a lot of mulitcam footage (multicam in PPro are nested sequences). I was working with CC2013 (PPro version 7).

Thanks for the info, guys. I suspect I may be up against a limitation to the software, or maybe a bug. Either way, I can directly export my sequences that contain nests – just can’t use Encoder to do the job.

Hi Phil,

Here, Premiere Pro actually crashes when trimming or slipping nested sequences on the timeline. No problems with exporting though.

This started to happen all of a sudden and I’m still trying to figure out what is causing this. Anyone have a clue?

Premiere Pro CC 2014.1 release, build 8.1.0 (81).

Microsoft is notorious for not giving us what we want. Apple is famous for making us believe what we want.
Adobe is the unsung hero for giving us what we need.

Thanks for the info, Leon. I’ll keep an eye on this thread.
