Question

Premiere Pro export error 512, error compiling movie

I have tried everything I could think of, but Premiere keeps failing to export my project, to either h.264 or h.265 (screenshot below)

My footage is from a Nikon D5200, and they are .mov files. This only happens when I apply any Lumetri Colour effect.

Help

My PC specs are

Core i9 7900x

Gtx 1080ti

32gb ddr4-3200 ram

asus prime x299 deluxe mb

2x 1tb samsung 960 evo ssd

Update: I tried converting the footage to .mp4 using handbrake and using that, but to no avail

    I'm having the same issue...

    Someone know how to fix it? ...

    maybe it happened because of the update...

    The project I want to export is kinda old.

      How long is the sequence you're exporting?

      I'd suggest trying to export a small part - say the first 2 minutes to see if that works. If it does, it may be a specific part of the file that is not causing the problem.

      I had this same problem today. I got around it by queuing the export to the Media Encoder instead of exporting directly from Premiere Pro.

        Hi Vespill,

        I am sorry that you are not able to render your sequence.

        • Do you have any specific effect (inbuilt or 3rd party) used around 00:00:05:03 - 00:00:06:05?
        • Have you tried exporting your sequence from the Media Encoder?
        • Any update available for the video drivers?
        • Try this: open your project, click on File > Project settings > General & change the video renderer to ' MPE Software Only' and delete previews.

        Let me know if that helps.

        Thanks,

        Kulpreet Singh

        Hi. I was recently having a problem like this when I used Lumetri along with a 3rd party effect in some of my sequence's clips. The task manager showed I was using a ton of memory, and I eventually got the 512 fail. The 3rd party vendor told me a tip that solved the problem. He said to move the Lumetri effect so it is after the 3rd party effect on each clip. That worked for me. It cut the memory usage in half and the render completed successfully.

        Hmm...that is very interesting. I will be sure to try it and report the results here asap. Clearly this is a common issue and Adobe needs to fix it rather quickly.
