Question

Can't export the full video (2+ hours of footage)

Hello,

 

I'm trying to export a video that is 135 total minutes of footage. The most that gets exported is only 20 minutes of footage. Why is this happening? The last time that I exported, the final file was only 24 bytes. Also, the file was corrupt and couldn't be opened.

 

This final file should be 11+ GB.

Long shot, but try to export it directly to the Desktop, iow to C:\Users\UserName\Desktop. This is not ideal either, the best is to export to a second internal hard drive.

 

If the problem persist, try to export using CBR instead of VBR.

Is there enough free space on the export drive and on the C drive?

Is the export drive formatted NTFS?

Make sure that you don´t have set an In Point and an Out Point in the timeline since the default is to export Sequence In/Out, or just change the Source Range in the Export Settings dialog to Entire Sequence.

 

If that fail to solve it we need more details such as OS, specific version of Premiere Pro, your Export Settings.

The version is Adobe Premiere Pro Creative Cloud 2018. I've tried exporting the entire sequence, but that always goes for naught. The best export that I got was a 2.2 GB file of the entire 11 GB allotted. Do you need me to send you a screenshot of my export settings?

A screen shot would be welcome. 🙂

 

What footage do you edit, from what kind of camera does it come from?
