Video Preview Error

Since the 2017 update, Premiere has been failing when rendering a clip preview.

The workaround is to choose a Preview File Format and Codec in the Sequence Settings that does work (AVI or Quicktime).

I-Frame Only MPEG resulted in the specific error shown in the screenshot, but all of the P2 DVCPRO and GoPro Cineform variants give a similar error.

I received an update for Premiere, After Effects and Prelude this morning. My current build of Premiere is now 11.0.1 (6).

After that update, my preview render problem has mysteriously gone away. All formats/codecs are now rendering successfully.

MPEG previews gave you that error message? About .avi files?

Yes, the error is occurring when the sequence is using I-Frame Only MPEG, which is the preview format used in a good majority of the sequence presets.

As I said before, the AVI and QT preview formats don't fail.

I probably should have mentioned also, that the footage (4K UHD MXF AVC) is 59.94 FPS, and the sequence is set to drop frame. Not sure if frame rate settings can upset certain preview renderers.
