Memory problems

	Re: Memory problems by marisu fronc on Jan 15, 2008 at 9:00:57 pm Have you tried this - right before you render minimize Premier and change focus to something else (task manager is always good) that will purge any accumulated memory in Premier - then when you maximize premiere render before you do anything else (like play the sequence). If that doesn't work you might need to try rendering ahlf and half - see if there's a particular section that's clogging it up. I find the toggle away method works 99% of the time, even if it is a bit of a drag. slainte, marisu Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: Memory problems by marisu fronc on Jan 15, 2008 at 10:16:35 pm You got it - the shift in focus allows Premiere to purge most of its cached memory (watch the service in task manager and you'll see what I mean). Good luck. slainte, marisu Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: Memory problems by John Reynolds on Jan 17, 2008 at 3:08:52 am I'm having a very similar problem myself BUT I think it's different. I've NEVER had ANY problems EVER rendering anything in uncompressed AVI format. I am workling with alot of graphics and have 4 GIG of RAM. After working with new still images I made in Photoshop I imported them in the Premier Pro timeline and then tried to render an uncompressed AVI. It stopped halfway through and gave me the memory error. After doing the swith to memeory check with no luck I decided to backtrack and took out the still images (pngs)I added. Then it rendered ok. I think this memory error is the result of something NOT compatible in the timeline. No the problem came back again with no stills in the timeline. I'm pulling my hair out because I've never had this happen before and always use the same grapics and video formats. Any suggestions? Could there be a bug in this latest version of Premier Pro cs3? I have all the latest updates. I have to have it uncompressed as I need top quality. When I try DV AVI sometimes one of the audio tracks doesn't render out. And now Premiere Pro crashes when I try to render other formats like Quicktime. I need to work with all the files in the timeline. Someting is seriously wrong.Please help with suggestions. Actually this seems like a rendering problem! Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: Memory problems by marisu fronc on Jan 17, 2008 at 10:53:56 am John- Have you tried converting the images to another type (tga, jpeg, etc)? The png's are likely the problem. I would try first converting the images in photoshop to another format and then relinking the new files and rendering the sequence. The alternative to try would be to render out the sequence to uncompressed without any of the stills and then make a new sequence with your rendered file and add the stills to it (it may still not render, but your chances are better. slainte, marisu Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: Memory problems by John Reynolds on Jan 17, 2008 at 2:55:45 pm You were so Right and Randy responded too and hit it on the head. It was twofold. First the PNGs was the problem for Prerender. Then Randy wanrned me about HiReZ files. I did originally delete them and even changed the format. But the size was still too big. Even after all of that I still had crashes and render errors. It wasn't until I started a new Project and Imported and the project clean and took out tose images and redid them....did the problem stop. I had to do at least three things to fix the problem. I thanks you and RANDY so much for your help. John Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index
