  • You may be using a compression type without the corresponding hardware card

    Posted by Rick Turners on May 5, 2010 at 8:16 am

    I’m trying to export a documentary, which has SD/HD/stills etc etc, to a solid ProRes which I’ll then use a cut list on..

    However, I cant export the movie because of this error, “you may be using a compression type without the corresponding hardware card”

    There are hundreds of photos.. supposedly if they are not RGB it can cause this… going through each photo sounds nightmarish.. any fixes?

    Thanks!

    Yep, it sounds like you have a few CMYK stills in your timeline,
    I usually batch convert them with Photoshop.

    It’s 1920×1080,

    I’ll give that batch photoshop idea a shot!
