Troubleshooting Export Problems in Premiere 

best tutorial i have found so far. Works pretty well. I was able to found what's giving me an error. Thanks bro!

Josh you just saved my life mate.....I can't thank you enough.....the media encoder is complicated and confusing Exporting directly from Premiere in H.264 as I've seen here was the trick. I had completed and edited clips I couldn't render and it was driving me insane So seriously man, thank you

Thank you! This solved my error. I was beginning to feel a bit hopeless as it was my first video

Josh-- you literally just save me after a day of back and forth troubleshooting in Premiere; I was blaming the newest Adobe update. This process worked without me having to disable the GPU encoding. Awesome SIR! Thank you!

Dude, I could never figure out why all my videos were so laggy and looked like trash after export or why the preview was so laggy while on projects. The video I’m on now was completely red other than a few yellow chunks. Thanks a lot, first person to say anything about this render feature and I imagine it’s exactly what I’ve needed for a long time!

thank you sir, you've saved a lot of lives with this video

Thank you so much! Very helpful selecting in and out and then rendering. 🙏🏻

Rendering def helped me out when only a portion of my video would export. Thanks so much!!! Subscribed!

Thank you so much josh. Its really helped.

I export the video fine, but when I play it, it says the file is corrupt every time

I have had this problem all day and after wasting my time watching countless useless videos this was the first one that helped. Many Thanks

This helped me, I didn’t know you could render the video in premier except when it’s exporting , and my bar would be red lol

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

This worked!!!!! I was pretty close to crying because I couldn’t get the video to export and this worked perfectly. Thank you so much!

Man, this worked like a charm! Thanks bro!

Thank you so much! I have been struggling for a bit an this really helped me out!

REALLY HELPS!!! Have some recommendation how to ease the process. I had a screen recorded video - 11 min in total. When I tried to export video always stuck at 7%. After watched Josh video I figured out that the problem was in 1 particular place sec 49-50. So I just cut this second joined 2 parts of the video and that's it. All worked. BUT all this time premiere pro was freezing and I had to reopen it all the time. SO - 2ND SIMPLE method how to find out there you have **broken** frame is just to launch the recording in VLC or any other player. In my case I used VLC . And it played video until 49th second and after crashed. I opened video again and launched it from 51st second and all worked ...so this is how I figured out quickly which part of video is broken....saved me plenty of time relaunching premiere pro.

Man ! Thank you very much you saved my life , 7 hours of working and the video must be ready tommorow , really thanks ! ♥️

I watched 3 other non working vids about that... and this is the one that worked. Thanks a lot

you just saved me 14hours of work, thanks alot! very helpful

Thanks dude!!! Greatly helped

YES! Thank you so much! Whenever I'd use to render it in H.264 the video would come out with this weird purple/green grain thing that looked like it could trigger epilectic shock. When I pre-render it now it works! Thank you so much again, you helped out a creator in need!

Thank you so much .I really felt frustrated when the video didn't exported correctly .

Thank you you helped a lot❤️

thank you josh

YOOOOOOOOOOO! Thanks a lot, all I had to do was drag that grey bar from the start of the timeline to the end. Because when I was exporting it took 1 second, and I was what the? Then I checked the output and it showed like a 0.5 second clip because the grey bar was so tiny. Also when I was editing I was like, what's that grey bar mean, and now I know. Thank you.

This video just saved me after hours of stress. Thanks man

This was exactly my problem and I've been so confused for days!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

exactly,that's my simple mistake.in&out did incorectly set. thank you

Thank you that helped!

Thank you, it helped me with one part of my problem.

Ooooh Thank you Josh it's completely working and i'am really really happy, thank's for the tips really appreciated :D

it is sad that editors have to go through all this, Final Cut pro would never...

This worked just fine , thank you :)

thank you very much, it helps a lot

Thank you! After 5 hours of audio not exporting, your suggestion worked!!! Yeah!!!!! Thank you so much!!

cheers pal this completly sorted my video was driving me berserck !

It worked man thank you so much :)

thanks this was very helpful

Gracias.. Thanks a lot. It really helped me with my project. I was getting the error because I NEST 5 different pictures. All i had to do is put them back each one in different lines on the project. V1,V2,V3,V4,V5 AND THAT SOLVED THE ERROR.

Dude You Saved My Life - I was about to say screw it and start over, but decided why not to search on RU-vid- there is a little chance , maybe will be a helpful video and I can do something. Your video was super helpful. Thank you!

i had many issues when i exported my sequense. After long tests i found out that my cpu needs more voltage. It has already passed Cinebench tests but is seems that Premiere makes my pc work harder. So if you are an overclocker boost your cpu voltage.

Thank you so much, you saved my time.

Thanks for the video :)

Useful.Thank you.

Worked!!!! You're a god

Thanks bro

I was able to just export the video without pre-rendering it but for some reason it didn't do it at all this time. I clicked on the option but it did nothing. Thanks for your help!

Omg ty sy much i was stressing so hard xD ty

Great! did the job for me.

thank you so much ..

Rendering In to Out sorted me out, thank you.

I know this is old now but if by any chance you're still around, I have one that is stumping me... I am using CS6 2013 rather than CC, but it's never had a problem exporting until now. It appears to export fine, but it's rendering some of the clips really poorly... and weirdly, I rendered it the other day when the project was 99% done, and it worked completely fine. I haven't changed anything to do with the clips that it's messing up... I've simply put some stuff at the end. When I saw this video I rendered the entire project and thought "Yep, that'll be it..." but no... same effect. It's bizarre and I am about ready to jump off a bridge because I've been working on this for almost 5 weeks and this is literally the final hurdle. It's more like the final step after the final hurdle... it's ridiculous and I can't figure it out.

Oh my god thank you so much! You just saved my project 🤣

THANK YOU SO MUCH

Great video!

Thanks you saving me in my homework :)

Hi - I had loads of these problems but finally managed to render in timeline and it did export but EVERY time it exports the audio but not the video. I make sure export video is checked in the export settings. What else could it be?

You saved my life!!

Thanks buddy I appreciate you u save me

When I render there are no errors however when I wue it for encoder it keeps crashing dying the render

thank you, bro. I spent 5-6 hours editing and I was gonna be pissed if I couldn't export my video

hi thank u 4 sharing this helpful video, unfortunately yet I couldn't export my video the exporting option for no reason is not available!! I notice that the video file is set either to software encoding or hardware encoding I can't change it can u or anyone tell me what should I do please :(

thanks :D

thanks man did it

it helped me. tnx

OMG, thank you so much! i went to export without rendering 😓

It works for me ;9 Thx. This made my day!

my audio and video is syncing properly in timeline but after export in h.264 its unsync, do you have a solution about this?

Hey, i have been facing an urgent issue. My export even when using the setting of use previews, its not using the pre-rendered files that i have been doing, its taking super long time to export 11-12 hours and more. What can i do?

Thanks bro👍👍

My screen freeze when it reach 16% while exporting. I can’t barely do anything with my laptop. So i just shut it down everytime. Help me 😭

THANKS A LOT MATE. :*

I export and everything goes well. when i open the exported video, i see it only exported about 2/3 of the total original video. I do not now what to do anymore. The original video is long, about 2 hours, but space is definitely not the problem. Please help!

I'm trying to export 4k and it is saying 2 hours and 26 mins for export. Is that normal? And is pressing enter the same rendering that you are explaining?

Help requested: Sometimes, when I export to h.264, there is error with sound which often finishes too soon. Any solutions please? At the moment I have to export to AVI which works fine but the quality is not as good. Many thanks

For me my error came from the render setting 'Time interpolation' being set to Optical Flow. Changed it to Frame sampling and it fixes some glitches I had. in case anybody else has this issue

I have a problem, i was about to release my edited video but it only exports 30 seconds from it, there's also a white thing on my first clip, the other clips are untouched, what do i do?

Hi, I am trying to export a video but when I do the video that plays is just a black screen with no sound. How do I fix this
