Rendering..
Is it necessary to render the final sequence before sending it to an output ? I am asking this because, when we give the command File > Export > movie or Adobe Media Encoder etc., it again renders the movie. On an other note, I tried to do this and after some time of rendering, Premiere Pro gave me the error message

No. Rendering the timeline only renders preview files. Preview files are only useful for a) seeing what your sequence looks like (if real-time previews aren’t cutting it), or b) exporting back to DV tape. If you export to a different format, that requires a complete re-render of the timeline anyway.
RE: the “failed to return a video frame” problem, it’s a bug with the MainConcept encoder. There’s a patch on MainConcept’s web site you can download:
