H.264 High Bitrate Encoding Fail at 0%
Okay, so I went to encode a video today using the newest version of Premiere Pro CC (2017.1) and it kept failing. I was trying to use a previously saved preset.
After a lot of fiddling, it turns out that setting the bitrate too high was what was causing it to immediately fail with this error:
Error compiling movie.
Export Error
Failed to create encoder.
Writing with exporter: H.264
Writing to file: \\?\C:\Users\Tim\Desktop\Sequence 01.mp4
Writing file type: H264
Around timecode: 00:00:00:00
Component: H.264 of type Exporter
Selector: 9
Error code: 3
Here are the details:
Sequence
Sequence Dimensions: 3200x1600
Sequence Framerate: 59.97
Encoding:
Format: H.264
Preset to use as a basis: Match Source: High Bitrate
Note: The profile and level are auto-set to Main and 5.2 respectively automatically
CBR: 240 (the maximum)
Try to encode, either right within Premiere or in AME and it will fail almost instantaneously.
Any bitrate over 192 seems to fail immediately.
I'm using Windows 10 (fully updated)
Can someone else test this out and make sure it isn't just my machines having this issue? I've tried it on 3 machines.
PS: I seem to notice at least one bug almost immediately after a new release is launched (check my track record). What does it take to become a beta tester?
