Re: CS3 Ultra - Green Screen

I've been using Adobe Ultra for awhile now, and only recently I've encountered this same "Render loop failed to render one of the images." It's extremely frustrating. I tried multiple clips and each clip had it's own "stopping" spot during export.

Adobe claimed they never saw this issue. I'm working with HD 1080i footage. My workflow had always been, take it into Premiere CS3, export it as an uncompressed avi, then into ultra to key out background, and finally to flash to put on the web. However, since I've gotten that error it seems I have to change things.

Adobe gave me to suggestions: 1) defrag your system. They said perhaps the footage we're bringing into Ultra is saved in multiple spots on the system which ultra can't handle. 2) export first from premiere from the media encoder as a BlueRay mpeg without audio, put it in ultra and then bring back to Premiere to link with Audio - BUT the export from premiere seems to screw up the time of the file by dropping frames in the beginning or end of the clip.

So - i'm still searching for a full solution too.
