Premiere Pro exports my video without effects.

[martag23036585]

I have an EXPORT problem.

My Premiere Pro exports my video without effects, and without adjustement layers.

Do you have any idea why is that so?

[R Neil Haugen]

Please give some information  ... basic computer spec is handy CPU/RAM/GPU, and the media you're working on that sequence.

What are the sequence details,  frame-size and rate, what effects used, and what you're doing in the adjustment layer.

Plus a screengrab of the full Export dialog with the settings you've been using.

Sequence settings:  attached file

EXPORT SETTINGS: attached file

Media type: MOV 1920/1080, 25fps

Adjustement layer on the entire project: lumetri color

Effects I'm using on some of the clips: neat video, warp stabilizer

Duration of the project: approx 3 minutes 30 sec

Have you tried exporting it in any other format like a HD1080 or Youtube 720p?

Can u try and see what happens.

To me all tour settings look correct.

One more option: Change this to software encoding and see what happens

[martag23036585]

>Have you tried exporting it in any other format like a HD1080 or Youtube 720p?

I just have. Nothing changed. Premiere Pro still exports my project without effects, and with bad quality.

>One more option: Change this to software encoding and see what happens

Can't do that: attached file.

There is one more problem: even if I work with proxies, I can't watch my finished work, because it still looks like premiere pro doesn't render it (2nd attached file).

This is not my first work with Premiere Pro, and I didn't have such problems with previous versions :-(.

[Mo Moolla]

Once you are ready on the timeline have you hit the return (ENTER) key to render the timeline to see how the edit looks?

[martag23036585]

I did hit the enter button. And the timeline turned green, thanks.

Anyway, it didn't help with exporting.

Premiere pro still exports my film without effects and without adjustement layer. I watched exported clip in Windows Media Player, Quick time, and Real Player, and it looks the same 😞

Any other idea how can I export my project? Really hope you can help me.

[Mo Moolla]

Marta can u please do a video showing the timeline with adjustment layer and effects and post it

I would really like to assist but need to work through a process of elimination

[martag23036585]

Thank you!

Interesting thing: this video also looks different after export. Please see the jpg file, there are 2 views of the video: prtscr from premiere pro (how the video looks in PrPro), and prtscr from windows media player, which looks much different.

When I re-import this video to PrPro, it looks fine.

I re-imported to PrPro the video (the main project) I just finished, and it looks fine, but when I watch it with any other application, it looks wrong again.

I don't understand.

Working on uploading the video.

[Mo Moolla]

How big are the project files for this. I would love to get 1/4 of your timeline with assets sent to me via wetransfer and I will test it on my side. Can u do a new sequence with about 15 secs of vid, adjustment layer, effects etc (basically a scaled down version of the current edit) and package and wetrasnsfer to me. Pm me for my mail address if you can do this

[martag23036585]

I will see if I'm able to do this when I'm back from work. Thank you very much for your support 🙂

[R Neil Haugen]

Are you re-importing your exports into PrPro to view them, or just watching them on a basic player like QuickTime?

Neil

[Mo Moolla]

R Neil Haugen​ This ones baffling the heck out of me

[martag23036585]

And this is a mystery to me:

After re-importing my export into Premiere Pro to view it, it looks OK, as it should look like. But when I want to watch it in any other application, it looks different: less contrast, no effects, much brigher, bad quality. Do you maybe know why is that so? Is it PrPro, or something wrong with my computer?

[R Neil Haugen]

It is because PrPro is working that file using the full Rec709 broadcast standard for professional video, and attempting as best as possible to show that within the program monitors. This standard specifies the color space of the viewing monitor to be video sRGB, at gamma mostly 2.4 these days, on a monitor built for and calibrated to that color-space and standard, and viewed in a controlled semi-darkened room.

Your system however, is clearly not setup for video sRGB 16/235 and calibrated appropriately. Or ... at least in Windows player, it would look close to the PrPro though not exactly.

QuickTime is notoriously color-stuuuuuupid. It ignores all color tags/flags/properties, and is useless for color/tonality viewing.

VLC and Potplayer do pay attention to the tags/flags/properties of video files, and try to play things correctly. I'd suggest downloading those two and comparing them.

But realistically ... you need a monitor that is fully designed for video sRGB, and calibrated with a puck/software system like X-Rite/i1 or the Spyder systems to video sRGB. At the minimum.

And understand ... you cannot possibly control how your material appears on other screens. Not even colorists can do so in their own suite, using both high-quality pro monitors of many thousand each and $10G in calibration gear setting up external LUT boxes for each monitor. The bane of colorists is when the client, attending a session and watching the screen provided for him/her, sees the reference monitor of the colorist, and says "Make my monitor look like that ... ".

You can only set up to produce as close to the professional standards as possible, then ... let it go. Out in "The Wild", that's all anyone can do, even broadcast networks. "You can't fix gramma's green TV" ... and every screen ever made is going to be some small to large amount different from yours in ways you can't even imagine. You cannot outguess them either.

Thank you Neal.

This is new to me, because I’m working on this computer for 6 months now, finished succesfully 5 projects, and such a thing have never happened before.

What else, my videos have always looked good on various apps, and on other computers.

Another interesting thing: original footages look the same, both in PrPro, and in (for ex.) win media player. Clips got „damaged” after export.

[R Neil Haugen]

If they import back into PrPro and look the same, they didn't get damaged in export.

Something is different outside of PrPro. Which could have been caused by an OS update, driver changes, app changes ... and the only way to get around this is to actually calibrate the system with a puck/software combination.

[Mo Moolla]

R Neil Haugen​ This is new to me. Can effects and adjustment layers be turned off on export. Never heard of this sort of issue before. Perhaps OP had tuned off adjustment layer that he had placed effects on and then rendered?

[R Neil Haugen]

Those are places normally to apply added effects for the export, as I understand it.

Neil

[Mo Moolla]

R Neil Haugen​ yes they are. I put that screen cap there because this is the only area you can choose certain additional effects to be rendered or not. So how the OPs effects and adjustment layers are not being rendered is a total mystery to me
