It just happened again for the forth time. Now at the bottom instead of the elapsed queue time being at zero, it reads “00:49:33”. The clock went from zero to 49:33 without visibly counting up.

Again it says “Error compiling movie. Unknown error.”

I appreciate so much all of everyone’s input so far…thanks!

The funny thing is that I actually have a 2TB external hard drive with 800 firewire that I have all the video on but I moved it to my computers hard drive in hopes of bettering the playback, but I guess that isn’t the biggest issue.

I have a related question…

On this project I’m editing together a music video so I’ve got my 4 main camera angles synchronized with the final audio and nested together for the multi-camera edits. I also have a couple of other camera angles that I want to include throughout the song. What’s the best way to edit these clips in? Normally I would just select a clip in the source window and drag it into the timeline on top of the multi-cam sequence but the problem is I have to line it up with audio every time I do that. Obviously, that’s tedious.

Is there a better way?

I’m working with HD.

I know a more powerful computer is the ultimate answer, but I’m trying to find a way to get through this project right now.

Would it help if all my file sizes were smaller?

I’m using Premier Pro CS4.

Are you saying the “multi-cam” option inside premier??

By the way, I’ll be using a few different kinds of cameras. I have a Canon XL H1 but we don’t have enough time (since studios charge by the hour) to do 5 or 6 takes to get all the angles I want. We do however, have 4-5 other video cameras we can use (ranging from middle-of-the-road consumer camcorders to point-and-shoot digital cameras set to “camcorder”) as secondary cameras. The idea is to use the XL H1 as the main camera and the other cameras to fill in the holes and give other angles. Since we don’t have the time or the money to get multiple angles with higher end cameras, I’ve decided to use these other cameras and get a sort of “poor quality on purpose” feel on the whole thing.

Thanks for the help. Is there something like a plug in that I can get that will convert them or render them out in one of those formats? BTW it just seems crazy that with such a good program like PP that it doesn’t output into those file types even though I’m on a mac.

Thanks….
