Export timeline, file size limit problem.
I'm working on a project which will result in a longer production than I've ever done before. The final productions will be about 1 hour each.
When I put the footage on my hard drive, every 18 minutes the import stoped and gave me a message that I reached the file limit size. I just kept repeating the process until I got the whole tape on the hard drive. This gave me 4 avi files to work with in Adobe Premeire 6.0. I edited the 4 clips and together they comprised about 60 minutes on the timeline. I then tried to export the timeline to one AVI file but I could only get 19 minutes exported. I keep getting the message that I've reached the file limit size for my drive. In the help menu for Adobe Premeire it says that this is a hard drive & capture card issue, not a Premeire software issue. How do I change the settings on my hard drive to allow both the import of an hour of footage in one clip/file and also the export to one large avi file? |

Assuming DV, 18 minutes is the 4GB file size limit imposed by using the FAT32 file system on your hard drive.
If you use a hard drive formatted with NTFS, you should find this problem goes away. (I captured a single 3.5hr+ DV file the other day which takes up over 44GB!) |

Is your drive formatted as NTFS? If it's FAT32 it is limited in file size and you will want to reformat as NTFS which has no file size limitations.

Thank you! I have one hard NTFS hard drive. I need to shift some files around now, but it will work. Thanks again!
....A 44GB file! Before now I've been working with importing clips of 2 minutes and less (mostly 10 to 15 seconds in most cases) in batch capture from a 1 hour DV tape. This is my first experience working with a 1 hour talking head video that just needs the front and end edited out for the final clip. Quote:
