Okay David, I now remember having this issue last year when I tried to get my family christmas video from my computer back to tape. My project is about 2 hours long. I am running Vista.

I have now again tried 2 times. First time it locked Premiere at about 47%.
Second time it said premiere had a fatal error at about 9%. I am for the heck of it trying it again. (since it would take about 12 hours to encode, can easy to see if it works, and it is never the same)

But, last time when I export to lets say Microsoft AVI, it worked fine.

So, I just let it go last year since I assumed that since tape export was not working, etc. that things might get fixed. Well, I still need to get the project out to tape.

So, am I the only person who has had the above issue? If not, what were solutions? If so, how can I get you my project to see if it dies on your systems? Would be nice to try and get to root cause this time.

Thanks

Dave

Dave,

Do you have the latest version of Cineform? The recently released updates include a major change to the Premiere Cineform-m2t render engine, uses a completely different compressor now (I believe). If you haven't updated, maybe this will help you out?

Yep, I have loaded Prospect 2K, build 143.

File a trouble ticket. It is a completely new MPEG encoder, so it is odd that is has the same failure. Support hopefully can find the issue for you.

Thanks, will do. It just died again at 9.22%. This time I wrote
down the frame. Thought I would try to see if that gives me any clue.
