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

    Hi,
    It's an old article I know but I wanted to bring back my solution. I had the same error 512. To get around the problem you can export the video as a PNG sequence (also with apha) and the audio as MP3 after which merge everything.
    Good job!

      i think i have the fix -

      it's a damn pack of free LUTs. something after the update makes these buggy to render. don't use them and the problem disappears.

      i think its these

        Agreed I think this is the problem, I use the same rocketstock preset LUTs and it’s just a case of chance.

        I managed to render and export a video with a lot of these LUTs applied, but then after making further adjustments and reattempting to render and export the same video I’ve had 3 errors.

        Guessing it’s buggy. Either way I’m thinking about switching editing softwares altogether because I’ve had too many issues with PP and AE over the years and I’m fed up now!

        I've found that the workflow I shared is worthless in some cases.

        tonight I tried to export a 2 hour long video, 1080p from A7s2 4k multicam with just lumetri basic correction and USM.

        tried to change a lot of settings, use the effects in the adjustment layer, in the cuts, change some settings in lumetri and flatten the entire multicam...

        the only solution I've found: dont use lumetri. it not reliable in my computer.

        I'm getting really worried because premiere is getting completelly unreliable.

        Hey Guys, I have the solution for this!
        Just do it, go to edit>preferences>memory, and the option (Optimize rendering for) change to Memory.

        I did it and solved my problems!

        I was following this thread because I got the same problem and I think I found a workaround to deliver my jobs on time. theres very little information about what kind of modifications are applyed in lumetri, so my solution maybe useless for a lot of people.

        long story short: got problems to export h264 and cdng, 1080p, 4k files/timelines with just lumetri and USM applyed. so I made experiments with the settings to figure out what was happening.

        I've found that my export problem is generated when I use a cube lut in the lumetri creative tab! I'm using the creative tab because I need to use like 70% of intensity of one determined lut of my library.

        my solution:

        to get this look using just the basic correction tab I applyed the desired lut with the desired intensity in the creative tab to use as reference, exported one "virgin" frame, openned in PS, use adjustment layers to achieve the look and export a lut file.

        so I can apply the lut in the BASIC CORRECTION LUT TAB.

        Is the folder you are trying to export to shared at all, or watched for updates by another program?

        I was exporting directly to my Dropbox and the error went away for me after changing that.

        EDIT UPDATE: I just found out this solution of mine ONLY works for rendering, it does not allow me to export, I get the same errors as everyone else, Software only or CUDA, I rolled back my graphics card drivers, didn't help, I used Media Encoder, didn't help, Really need a fix for this. My business is literally at a standstill until I can get this fixed.

        I was having the same error code as many here, just trying to simply render my footage, with a lumetri color effect on it and I kept getting error code 512. I restarted the program, my computer, wasn't maxing out my computer's resources either, turned my render engine to Software only, etc. and nothing worked.

        Finally found a solution today. I rendered effects ONLY "In to out" and then followed up with a regular render in to out and the problem seemed to go away, not sure why, but alas, it worked. Hope it works for you all too!

        Similar issues here...  I get a host of errors when using the GPU for export, (GTX980ti with latest drivers), so I switched to software only and get a new error, this is using AME:

        A low-level exception occurred in: Dip to Black (AEVideoFilter:11)

        Export Error

        Error compiling movie.

        Software Render Error

        A low-level exception occurred.

        Writing with exporter: HEVC (H.265)

        Writing file type: HEVC

        Rendering effect: AE.ADBE Dip To Black

        Component: Dip to Black of type AEVideoFilter

        Selector: 11

        Error code: 512

        Very frustrating.  Why does PPro allow a sequence to be constructed if it cannot then render it out..??!
