  • Problem with ‘Export To Movie on Premiere Pro’. Help!

    Posted by Lanzi on May 30, 2005 at 10:57 am

    Goodmorning and Greetings.

    I have an ‘Export To Movie’ problem with Premiere Pro 1.5. I am exporting a DV PAL 83 minutes footage onto a Lacie external drive. 30GB free space which is enough. After say 15 minutes of exporting (at best quality settings) I get: ‘Disk is full’ message. If I export the movie as 6 seperate clips then I have no problmes. It all fits in the Lacie. But I need to have a continous 83 minute final clip to then burn on DVD via Adobe Encore.

    Please help. How can I solve this painstaking problem?

    Warmest Regards,
    Lanzi

    Suspect that your external drive is formatted as FAT32 which would limit a DV file to 18 minutes (4 gb). Format it as NTSF.

    Thanks for reply. Yes it is FAT32. I just learnt all about FAT32 vs NFTS 1 hour ago. My knowledge of system is poor am afraid. If I format I will lose the information in it. I learnt about AVisynth but really confused on how to open a script editor to paste clips together. Can you expand more on your adivice and perhaps on Avisynth?

    Thank you.

    It is not a real format. You will not lose anything if you do it. Make a search for the “Convert” function in your OS Help. It is a very quick and harmless operation.

    Just to add a bit of information, the Convert program is located in the System32 folder, here is a MS knowledgebase article on using Convert: https://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314097

    PROBLEM SOLVED.

    In the end I backed up my data on Mac and reformatted to NTFS on PC (my premiere is on PC).

    No 4 gig limit during export now. Thanks a bunch to all. The Convert option is a good tip.

    Thanks!
