premiere pro error 401

[rswann505]

Hi there,

I am using the updated Premiere Pro 14.6, and for some reason I keep getting an error after encoding while attempting to upload my video to YouTube. I typically have this issue with longer videos, but the issue keeps arising. Is there something I am doing in the editing process that could be creating this error?

what export preset are you using?  and although it's probably not the source of the problem, always a good idea to tell us your system specs: OS version, Premiere version, amount of RAM, Hardware specs including graphics card

[Michael Grenadier]

and was your export workflow working before the premiere update?  If so, you might want to revert to the previous version.

On my laptop I am using Geforce GTX 1650, 14.6 premiere pro, 16gb RAM, and thats about all that I know. It was working prior to the update, and now it takes a long time tp encode, and the upload constantly fails.

what settings are you using for the export?  and if it was working properly before, revert to that version.

Okay I will give it a try and see if that works. In regards to what settings, I am not too sure what that means.

So I tried updating to a different version and one of the videos uploaded. However, the other one failed again and keeps giving the same message from before..

I have a practically identical issue.

Same issue here.

I am having this issue too.

I have this problem since the latest update.  It always fails with the YouTube setting, and I've tried multiple export settings - match sequence settings, .H264, .avi, mpeg... they all fail.  This was not a problem before updating to Adobe Premiere Pro 2021. I'm on v15.0 build 41.  The setting in the attached picture is the same setting I used before the update. No changes to my machine have been done.

I SOLVED IT!!!

So on a whim I decided to log out of YouTube in the export window, then log back in.  Instead of taking 2+ hours to encode and upload, it took 30 minutes, AND there was no error!
