    Brandon,

    A little more info would be useful so people can help you with your issue.

    What Operating System (Mac / PC)?
    What version of Premiere are you on?
    Are you using Default Keyboard Shortcuts or customized?
    Do you share this computer with anyone? Possibly being pranked?
    Have you reset your Premiere Preferences?

  • Have you tried turning off Use Maximum Render Quality in the export settings? Do you have Composite in Linear Color checked in your sequence settings? Try unchecking both and re-export to see if it doesn’t include your text.

    Bob,

    At work we acquired a few new 27″ iMacs that shipped with 10.11.5. Does this SMB issue affect 1Gig connections as well or only 10gig connections? I did some speed tests on one of the 10.11.5 iMacs connected via 1Gig ethernet to our Isilon via SMB mount and was getting 85.7MB/s writes & 62.2MB/s. Created the nsmb.conf file in etc/ and changed the signing required to no. Re-ran the same test and only got a speed change of 2MB/s on both read and write. Ran the same tests with a IFS mount to the Isilon and got a little better read & write speeds of 94.6MB/s & 108.2MB/s.

    Appreciate any update you have on this SMB issue with running OS X 10.11.5.

    Thanks,
    Andy Edwards

    Does the error show up in the text file that you can see what the error is? Try another export of just the sequence you need as a single Xml or try round tripping the XML through Davinci Resolve.

  • Thanks for the info Chris. Strange thing to me is why they want 8 channels with 1-6 channels completely empty. What device plays that out when only 2 channels of actual source audio is needed on channels 7 & 8. Multichannel, 5,1, mono stereo, Adobe is getting better with making audio options for many workflows, but it’s still not simple drag and drop.

  • Your export settings to media encoder are set to one stream. If you need it to go to all 8 channels, you need to hit the + and add the other 6 channels into the export preset.

    Do they actually need 8 channels or could you just export channels 7 & 8 as a stereo pair?

    If you do need channels 1-6, you need to assign them and pan them like you did to 7 & 8 before exporting.

    Telestream Vantage products allow for encoding or flipping files to ProRes flavors and it runs on Windows. Steep price, but one of the few Windows based encoders that can export ProRes.

  • Still not understanding which way they were created? Are they tile design created or the captioning file type? If the titles were created by a 3rd party application like Mac Caption from Telestream and embedded into the video files, you can extract the data. But if that were true, you could ask the company that did them to send you a SCC or SRT file you could then paste into a Excel doc. I have not used EZtitles, so not much help there, sorry.

  • If they created “Titles” for the captions in the title designer vs. a proper caption file, then yes, you are stuck. If the files were proper captions created in premiere, you can choose the steps I showed above to create a SRT file, not SCC to extract the timecode and captions.

    There might be a XML extract application you could try, but all depends on if the the premiere titler vs. the caption file creation process was used.

    Andy.

  • Are the subtitles 608/708 embedded in the files you are working on or you created subtitles inside of Premiere with the captions tool? If you used the caption tool you can just export your sequence and in the export menu under the caption tab, choose create sidecar file and SRT format. This will create a text file you can open up and copy and paste your subtitles into a document.
