PP2.0 & Boris Graffiti 5 Composition = Not able to Export as MPEG2

Posted by Howard Mills on June 24, 2008 at 3:50 pm

First let me say sorry if I double post but I was looking for help and posted in the PP2 forum first.

Hello, I hope someone will be able to help me out here. I have a short 10 minute project which I’ve been trying to export to a MPEG2 file using the Media Encoder. Each time I try I get the following message “Adobe Premiere Pro failed to return a video frame, canceling the operation”. I have a Boris Graffiti “squeezeon.grf” effect at the start of the project. If I remove the effect the export runs fine, until it reaches another effect. The strange thing is I am able to export to wmv files. Has anyone experienced this issue? and what did you do to get this to work?

Thanks for your help,

Howard

Hi Howard,

Did you render your effect before you tried to encode? I didn’t have a problem with PP CS3 and Graffiti.

Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave, No I did not, how would I go about it?

Thanks

The Enter key (over next to the num pad) will render everything inside of your work area. You can selectively render the Boris effects one by one or render your entire timeline.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Dave

Dave, when I try to render I get a “video Preview Error” box with the following message, “Error compiling movie. Unknown Error”. The strange this is, if I adjust the work area to a point AFTER the Boris effect it renders flawless so this would lead me to think there’s something wrong with the specific effect I’m trying to use. Any other ideas?

Thank you,
Howard

I’ve never seen this. Are you using Graffiti as a composition clip or a filter applied to media? You can also try deleting the effect and applying it again in of the off chance that there was something Premiere didn’t like about the effect when you created it.

Thanks,
Dave

Dave, it was applied as a composition. I’ll delete it and apply as a filter applied to media.
