In trying everything to make this render, I went into the get info on the external and internal drives.

I haven’t reloaded the software yet.

Before I reload a project, the original footage was on a P2 card shot at 1080i/60i and I am unsure what to select for the sequence settings menu. In the 1080i folder drop down should I select AVC_I 100 1080i60 ? This and other factors may be causing my problems?

The internal drive has 507 gigs avail and is formatted Mac os extended (Journaled)

The External segate drive has 1.07 TB avail and I just caught it that it is formatted Windows NT File System.

So I guess there is plenty of room.

If this is a problem (and I think it may be) Would anyone have an idea on how to correct this and save the footage already saved on it?

It was P2 footage and it is not all available to re upload from the P2 cards, but I do have another hard drive offline with the same footage on it but it isn’t available for me to see what format this other hard drive has at this time. I will have access to it next week.

I have edited previous jobs but it may have been footage that wasn’t P2 and I was able to render.

What a dilemma.

I am using Adobe Premiere Pro 5.5 on a IMAC 27, Intel core i5 2.7 GHz, 12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3… MAC OSX 10.6.8 I have a 2 Terabyte external drive fire wired in also.

Thanks in advance for your help.

In my project settings under general in video rendering and playback there is a select window called Renderer. In that window Mercury Playback Engine Software Only is selected and grayed out so I can make no changes.

I also tried to go to the same project that I saved in it’s early stages of development and it will not render there either. I get the same error message: error compiling movie, unknown error.

Chris,

I did what you said to do and it doesn’t work.

Maybe I set up the timeline to the wrong format to handle the P2 Clips?

Also some gopro clips show up smaller than the program when added to the timeline. I did drop them on the new item in the bin window and it places them on a new sequence but how do I get them in the body of the other sequence?

I used to edit on discrete logic’s *edit but this is a whole new ballgame…

Your suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,

Bruce.

Well Jack. I have been getting a few answers but the holiday jumped in…

Been down a few paths… “0”

Had a “serious problem” while attempting to quit premier, again.

I bought back into the Mac platform. I didn’t think it would be this fraught with errors.

Misery loves company… sorry you are having the same problem. I cross posted the problems and I’ll probably be slammed out for it, in Premiere Pro forum.

Jack, I was asked to put the system I was using in my signature.

Against the wall here. Keep me posted.

Well I tried different projects… Results are in. Nothing will render.
I am wondering if there is a workaround of fix.

Chris I appreciate your help and thanks for the response on the holiday too.

Well I went back in and it wont render the sequence or any part thereof. i tried individual clips and none are working.

I do have mixed original footage, P@ stukk from a GoPro and some time lapse jpg’s in a short sequence.

The other big ? is if I move forward editing will I be able to clear the problem

The other big ? is if I move forward editing will I be able to clear the problem later, or redo the whole piece…

I am going to check other seq’s and projects and see if I can render anything.

I saw the permissions in the disk utility but the button is grayed out. I was able to verify the drive and it detected some errors but I can’t “repair” as it states it’s a read only. But when I looked up the properties (info) it said read write permissions.

I am sorry but I don’t understand repair permissions. I rebooted the system I looked into it and should I apply it (what command) to the external hard drive? Will it change anything that will force me to redo the job? Or, am I looking to redo the whole thing anyway?

Thanks,

Bruce

Chris. I did what you said to do, I think. But I have no real direction from you as what to do. So I went to the projects settings scratch disk window and changed it from docs to same as program. It won’t render, so I changed it back to docs and back to square 1.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TOO.
