I have Mac Pro 2 x 2.4 G 6-Core Intel 24GB Memory. 3 hard drives online - 2 SSD and one regular. OSX 10.8.3.
I have installed Premierr Pro 6.02 (Creative Cloud) and updated everything.
I created a new project and added two small 1 minute files. They were originally MPEG2 files. I couldnt import them into premier or Media Encoder so opened in Quicktime and exported as MOV.
I get "Media Pending" issue that wont go away.
The files added are on the system and program install disk SSD 1.
Scratch disk for everything is SSD 2.
I tried using Media Encoder and got error:
- Encoding Time: 00:00:00
04/21/2013 09:10:59 AM : Encoding Failed
-------------------------------------------------------
Export Error
Error compiling movie.
Unknown error.
File Properties:
Greg Race2.mov
704 x 480
00:01:18:27, 29.97 fps
48000 Hz - Unknown - Stereo
Quicktime plays the files fine.
If I export from Quicktime to iMovie and then import the Quicktime shared iMovie clips into PRemier they seem to work fine.
TWO Questions:
- Why cant I open or encode the original MPEG 2 file?
- Why do I get media pending issue on quicktime exported files but not the iMovie share files.
