Stuart,
You are a life saver- Your simple solution saved me another 2 hours of hunting for my disappearing null object… Thanks again for sharing.

I have tried to author the same project since 10 pm last night. No success 12 hours later. Previously, I get the ‘General Error’ halfway thru the authoring. Now, I get it even after I re-start the PC and starting a new slate of Encore.

And even after I click the ‘ok’ button to acknowledge, the darn message keep coming up, even after i repeatedly click ok. Seems like some serious bug.

And I’m using the latest CS5.5 production premium. I believe I have done all the necessary updates. Does anyone have a fix for this? This Production Premium 5.5 is driving me crazy…

Same problem here. Really need some help. Looks like I have to fall back to Powerdirector to do the job if I still can’t find a solution to this bug.

I’ve been trying for the past 4 hours trying to get the DVD authored and half-painstakingly through twice an error was generated.

I did a ‘check project’ and everything reported fine.

However, this irritating error keep popping out when I went to the Timelines tab: On the tab shows 2 timelines and ….Default Not Set.

i figured it may be something I need to transcode, but the options are greyed out.

As this is my first time using encore, I may be doing something wrong, but I have followed the tutorials accordingly and this error shouldnt be appearing.

Does anyone else have this same problem and how do I resolve this?

I have the same error message: with CS5.5 production suite.

1st time using Encore:

Had the workflow all set up in Encore but had realised I had accidentally moved or deleted one of the .mov files.

had ‘located transcoded file’ but still the ‘Requested functionality not yet implemented’ pops out…

I got the same problem. Created a light, spotlight, but the whole screen turns black and I only see the 3D light gadget (x,y,z axis). All my other layers disappear.

Only in ‘Ambient light’ where the rest of the other photos/layers appear.

– I am using CS5.5
– Draft 3d disabled.
– 76 photos (1200 x 800px)
– No videos
– 1/3 playback resolution

I see the tutorials where the creator makes it look so easy. Create new spotlight, and the scene gets illuminated accordingly. I did the exact same thing and everything blacks out.

Would appreciate any advice for this AE noob? many thanks.

Hi,

I’ve got the exact same problem. Doing some trimming but the audio keyframes refuse to move in tandem, a small problem with a big headache. Tried changing option to clip instead of timeframe but then I lose the ability to set keyframes.

Hi,

After fiddling around for hours, I found the solution, re-posting just in case some newbie like myself have the same problem.

You have to exit Premiere Pro and re-start Premiere Pro to have that elusive microphone icon to appear. Apparently if you install the microphone halfway during yr PP session, the microphone icon is missing.

I have the same problem:

CS 5.5 using premiere pro.
microphone recognised by my PC.
clicked ‘record’ button
clicked ‘play’
Error message comes up: “You cannot record without enabling at least one track for recording”.

I must be missing something here. Can some kind soul advise?
Thank u.

I’ve got the same problem with CS 5.5 AE. I tried to import some .mov files to work on but it gives me an instant error “After Effects error: Cant’ import file “abc.mov”: unsupported filetype or extension (0::1)

I have CS 5.5 production suite, using AE.

– AMD 1100 6 cores
– GTX 560 ti
– 16 gb ram
– Windows 7
– Quicktime 7.7.1

I’m new to AE but I believe .mov are pretty standard file formats so I don’t understand why I cannot import .mov files to AE. Can some kind soul share some advise? Many thanks.
