Rendering Issue on New System (i5-13400F, RTX 4060)

Hi @Aegnoril,

Responded to your direct message and wanted to see if you were still having issues. Something else you could try is to go to the 'hamburger' menu on sequence timeline, select 'Work Area Bar', and then go to the top menu > Sequence > Render Entire Work Area, and see if this makes a difference. If you are still having problems and would be willing to share your project with the PNG file in question, the team could take a look to try and reproduce the problem.

Sorry for the frustration,
Dani

Hi @Dani_V.  ,

Thank you for your response and suggestions.

I wanted to share some updates based on your advice:

• I have reinstalled NVIDIA drivers multiple times, both Studio and Game-Ready versions, ensuring clean installations each time. Unfortunately, this didn’t resolve the issue.

• Hardware acceleration in Premiere Pro is already enabled under Preferences > Media. I also tried disabling it to see if that would make a difference, but the results were the same.

• Suspecting that the PNG file itself might be problematic, I recreated the logo and re-imported it into Premiere Pro. However, the error persisted.

• Thinking the project might be buggy, I rebuilt the entire project from scratch multiple times, but I am still encountering the same rendering issue.

• I can confirm that at 00:00:00:11, there is no additional effect or element other than the PNG logo.

Additionally:

• My export settings are shown in the attached image for further review.

• I’d also like to clarify that the error at 00:00:00:11 is not specific to that timestamp—it occurs at a similar interval every time I attempt to export the project. I’ve attached images showcasing this behavior to provide more context.

If there are any further tests or alternative solutions you would recommend, I’d be happy to try them. Thank you again for your assistance!

I appreciate your insight regarding Intel's F-series CPUs and their reliance on software for H.264 encoding/decoding. Allow me to share some context on my situation:
My current personal circumstances have led me to acquire this specific system. It wasn't about choosing more or less—this is simply the configuration that was accessible to me.
For over 10 years, I worked with an Intel i5-7200U and NVIDIA 940MX system, managing to achieve a 12-second output successfully, despite the limitations of that setup. Now, it feels unreasonable to think I can't replicate that result with this newer system.

Dani,

That CPU doesn't have any hardware for H.264 workflows. So the only hardware acceleration would be coming from the GPU, that RTX4060.

I understand those do have hardware encoding for H.264, am I correct?

Intel's F CPUs don't have any internal H.264/long-GOP hardware involved, so any H.264 encodes or decodes will be "software" ... and slower.

I still don't know why people get such CPUs for video work.

Try turning off Hardware encoding in the Video tab of the export settings.
