Green & Purple Bar Flickering at End of Videos

Hi all,

I'm still new to shooting & editing, but I'm trying to produce multiple videos per week to get experience. I went out this past week to shoot for three short videos. I edited them and exported them out. I finally watched them, and I see a similar error that occurs only at the very end of each video.

I've included three screenshots of what's happening here:

1.) (https://ibb.co/kQTNXH)

2.) https://ibb.co/nGpkmc): This one turned green & pink

3.) (https://ibb.co/jExAKx)

There is vertical green bar that appears on the side of the videos. I understand this could be an issue with the wrong resolution? My sequence settings for all these videos are 1920x1080. I'm attempting to play these videos in Quicktime as they're .mp4s. I don't see this error in Premiere Pro before I export them.

I used proxies to be able to work on them without my computer slowing down. Does anyone have any advice on what may be going on?

I've edited and exported videos like this several times before with no problems. The error is in DivX, Reaplayer, and Quicktime. I also exported in H.264

I've exported a ton of different versions today. I think I found the problem. I'm still not sure why it may be happening though. When I export my video as usual: select H.264, YouTube 1080 HD, 'Use Maximum Render Quality', VBR 2 pass there is no error. But when I add in 'Render at Maximum Depth' it flickers green and purple at the end. I'm pretty sure 'Render at Maximum Depth' is the culprit for me. Any idea why this could be? Anytime I export the video at 480/1080/etc and select 'Render at Maximum Depth' the green flicker comes back in. If I do everything else as usual but deselect it then it's fine.

Hi Marc,

Render at maximum depth works on content at 32 bit color depth and very few formats support this option. Also, it is helpful when you have 32 bit effects applied in your sequence or clips. This might need a very high utilization of RAM and Graphics card capabilities and generally used in High End machines. So, my recommendation is not to use it unless the machine is powerful enough or you don't have 32 bit effects applied.

Hmm, thanks for the response. I'll have to look into it. This computer isn't so great (8gb) memory, so hopefully this won't be a problem in the future when I upgrade to a new rig.
