White Flash Frames in Export
I have a fairly complicated sequence — nests within nests, adjustment layers with noise, and it’s mainly still images (at one point, 32 different layers of stills at one time) — but every export has white flash frames consistently through it.
I have tried troubleshooting in every conceivable way — getting RID of the nests, relinking the still PNGs to JPGs, no noise layers, etc. — but it still always has the white flash frames. And the frames are at DIFFERENT times in the export, ie: on one export it’ll be in a specific portion of the cut, but then if I try exporting again, it’ll appear in a different part of the video. Furthermore, I’ve tried exporting in most imaginable codecs. Even the targa sequence had the frames of white.
I had to revert to screen-capping the video FROM Premiere to Quicktime just to send the client a version. Any solutions?

export as an image sequence – if you say that the white frames are fully random, then you can see the white frames in Finder and re-export those portions until you get a clean render you can convert to a video file using Premiere or AME.
Sometimes getting the work done trumps figuring out whats happening when you have client deadlines.

Well I did try exporting as a Targa and TIF sequences, but the frames still appeared in the image sequences (often every other frame for seconds at a time). While they are random at times, the more complicated parts of the sequence ALWAYS have them, so a try-until-it-works method won’t work.
