Help! I was working on a premiere pro project and when it came to exporting it via media encoder it kept failing 7 seconds into the film, and when I check the log it says:
Encode failed because the source duration is nil.
Now, when I open the same project that I was trying to export in premiere pro, I keep getting the message:
That says:
[/Users/dvaeng/releases/dva/shared/adobe/MediaCore/MediaLayer/VideoFilterHost/Src/AEVideoFilter.cpp-1549]
In media encoder, the export kept crashing 7 seconds into the film, which led me to believe that it might have been to do with a template or png that I was using there, but when I delete that in recorvery projects I still cannot export/premiere often crashes.
The couple of threads I have found on similar topics have not worked yet.

What is the media file type you're working with?

Sorry, I meant the media type of your source media.

Hi Matt - Im really sorry I'm not quite sure what you mean - do you mean the different types of things I have loaded in the project?
If so ive got quite a few things -
.MOV
.mp3 & .wav
.png & .jpg
.aep and some motion graphics template media folders, both from a animator. I have used these files in a project before with no problem though I think.
Ive uploaded some screenshots of the notifications I get. I added a graphics template from online of rolling credits, which seems to cause slow my computer down. Could it be that?

I'm having the same issue in an edit that contains a number of different kinds of media, including some high-resolution stills etc. This project has been working well until this morning, when I started getting the same error as the OP:
Premiere Pro has encoutnered an error.
[/Users/dvaeng/releases/dva/shared/adobe/MediaCore/MediaLayer/VideoFilterHost/Src/AEVideoFilter.cpp-1549]
Since the error started occurring, working in this project is impossible, it crashes within 2 minutes of opening the project.
I'm in the middle of a big production here and time is of the essence, would really appreciate some help on this issue as soon as possible.
Thanks!

Did you ever get a solution to this error?

Try to pin-point at which point or media is encoding while the error is happening? try re-encoding that specific file using handrbrake

Hey, this might be too late to help you but I had this same problem but when I was opening the project rather than exporting. There were two things I did, I uninstalled Premiere and then reinstalled it and I also turned off Google Drive. I'm fairly sure it was uninstalling and reinstalling that solved it, but I have noticed that google drive sometimes really confuses Premiere, footage gets relinked to it and other weird things.
