Trying to export gameplay video, stopped due to error

I’m completely new to Premiere and a search on Google quickly overwhelmed me. Would anyone know how to go about fixing this? Being willing to spoon feed me on this would be spectacular. Thanks so much in advance. I spent almost 20 hours shooting the video clips and then half of today editing, so I’m super bummed about this.

    Yes, transcoding.

    I don't know what's wrong with your source files. It might that Media Encoder will choke on them too.

    If they're from a game stream it might that the stream was interrupted, and you'll have to stitch things back together before and after the errors. Try de-selecting "Stop current item if decode errors are detected" in Media Encoder and see if that helps. 

    Google tells me that sometimes errors like this can be relieved by de-selecting hardware encoding in the media preferences for Media Encoder. 

     

    Finally, a word of advice: scrupulous courtesy is a good policy when asking for help:-)


    Transcoding fixed everything -- absolutely perfect. Thanks so so much for your help and pointing me in the right direction!  All the best.

    Please use the free MediaInfo and post a screenshot of the properties of your media in tree view:

    Many users are having issues with VFR. If the file is variable frame rate, use Handbrake to convert to constant frame rate:

    Here is a tutorial:

    Shutter Encoder may also be used to convert to Constant Frame Rate:

    As said on the other forum: fix what ever is at that timecode.

    Delete and do it again.

    Yes, but I'm afraid I don't know what you mean by "fix" it. I'm super new to all of this. Would you be able to explain? And you're referring to the new error I'm getting now, right? The first error has been fixed, but now I'm getting a new one (posted that in one of the comments). Someone on Reddit said to "reincode" that clip, but I'm not sure what that means and I'm fearful of messing anything up.

    I am not going to spoon-feed you. You need to learn the program first before venturing on a long 2h gameplay.

    Premiere has a high learning curve. Just because its prof. software, it does not mean you're done with pressing a few buttons. it's not. You are in control of every setting.

    Make a backup of all your clips, so you can mess up. At one time you will.........trust me.

    Fix the second error as you did the first.

    Cannot give you any advice as I don't know anything about the clips, timeline, effects used, export settings, computer specs, OS, Premiere version and build.

     

    If you want to learn the program properly, get a subscription at LinkedIn Learning.
