Question

Premiere Pro crashed on nearly 20 export attempts over the last fortnight SOS please

Hi guys. Nearly 20 export attempts of two 45min videos in the last fortnight with all but about 3 crashing. Sadly I've converted from an Adobe advocate to a vehement hater. I simply cannot successfully export the final version to client & I've got more in the pipeline.

 

I've attempted all troubleshooting I could find on the Community forum but no success. If I can't get this worked out ASAP, I'll need to redo the two projects in my copy of Resolve Studio 16 (& learn how to use it) which I've been procrastinating on taking up.

 

I would be really grateful if an Adobe Ninja had suggestions before I have to dump Adobe in the trash & redo all my work.

 

It's a training video that has video & some text slides and one error I received alot said "A font that is required for this export has changed. Please restart the export". The font I used is "Tahoma". I attempted to export individual text slides & found some crashed with this error so deleted & reproduced the slide from scratch including a completely new layer. They then individually exported OK. So I wouldn't think this is a problem now.

 

Unfortunately when I now attempt to export the full video I either get a complete crash with no explanation & I have to login to CC again OR I get an explanation (like below) followed by a crash & have to login to CC again.

I'm running PP version:

I also have the problem that I cannot update CC giving me "Error 508". I've tried all the online troubleshooting to fix this (including setting up another local Windows acc) but no success. I'm not sure if this issue is related to my export crash problem.

 

Media Encoder has been equally unsuccessful crashing with the same or no errors.

 

Some video clips have Warp Stabilizer, Unsharp Mask & Lumetri.

 

My system specs are below but if you need more info please ask. Thank you.

I found this thread after seeing you post about this issue in the patch notes for the lastest version of Premiere. In that thread, you mention you're using media from a Canon 1Dxii. I looked up the specs for that camera and it appears to shoot in VBR. Premiere is notorious for not handling VBR footage well. This may be a tall order for your 45 min sequence, but would it be possible for you to transcode your footage to an intermediate codec like Cineform or Prores? 

 

Here's something you could quickly test: if you take one raw clip from this camera, maybe 60 secs worth, make a new sequence, apply Warp Stabilizer, Unsharp Mask & Lumetri, will this 60 sec clip export correctly?

Hey Jeff, thanks so much for looking in.

 

I suspected there was a corrupt file/s so ran exports on 50 individual clips/slides & another 30 I bundled into a couple of batches. Every footage file exported correctly but a couple of the text slides had error "A font that is required for this export has changed. Please restart the export". I deleted & rebuilt those text slides from scratch & they then exported fine.

 

I tried exporting VBR 1 Pass, sometimes it worked but I'd get some pixelated frames occasionaly so couldn't deliver the file. VBR 2 Pass would always throw up the error "Encoding is in progress. Do you really want to quit?" then crash OR just straight crash & restart the machine.

 

Thanks for the pointer on the 1DX ii, it might turn out to be the problem.

 

I got on to the Adobe helpdesk & one of their Ninjas is working on it now. Thanks.

As a test, try setting your Export Encoding Settings to Software Only:

if mtd's suggestion doesn't help, maybe it is the font.  try using photoshop to create your titles and save as a ping which should have transparency and not require referencing the font in premiere.  You can get a free trial of photoshop.  If you don't want to bother, try replacing the font with something simple like arial or helvetica and see if that solves the problem.  If it does, it's a font issue.. and you'll either need to generate your titles in photoshop or replace the font.   

 

Of course if you can use the font in premiere, copy the title to a new sequence with the same settings and use the "export frame" command to export a png which will have transparency and again, not reference the font... and then replace the title in your premiere sequence with the png...

Hi Richard,

 

Unfortunately, I'm having the same problem. I've been trying for weeks and have not had a successful export, yet. I got the "A font that is required for this export has changed" error message, too. And I'm just using generic fonts that ship with Premiere Pro. Other times I received the same "Sorry, a serious error has occured..." without any explaination. If it does work, then there's other glitchy problems that appear in the final video. I'm on Mac and having the same problem. So I'm pretty sure this is a bug throughout the 2020 versions. Unfortunately, people like you and me are stuck trying to figure out what to do. I hope someone comes on here with an answer because I'm stumped, too.

Hi Bandon,

 

My reputation is trash with this customer now away because I had them review the rough videos, I made the changes but simply can't deliver the finals.

 

I wanted to test what was going on so I've gone through 50 clips & text slides exporting every single one and blocking an additional 30 into a couple of groups to test which crashed. Any that crashed I rebuilt from the ground up with a completely new layer. So every one of the 80 now individually exports without crashing. I'm going to take Meg_The_Dog's advice (even though I've tried it before) & run an export overnight using the Software Encoding only. If it crashes again I might try mgrenadier's advice to change all the fonts but I'm not going out to Photoshop (even though I use it for stills) because as a customer I shouldn't have to go to extreme workarounds just to use PP.

 

I'm emotionally really close to dumping PP & restarting all my projects using Resolve which my associates (frustratingly) seem to have no problems with. I'll let you know how I get on because businesses like you & I can't afford to waste this sort of time with poorly performing Applications.
