Re: [Avid-L2] Export to Quicktime error message

Great advice Jay. With an export that big, it could just be topping out the drive, though I'd think that would show up in the error message he posted

also try exporting to a different volume. If you are exporting to your desktop then try exporting to a different drive, like a USB or FireWire attached drive. Or try exporting to a networked drive.

If you really want to do some detective work, duplicate your sequence, and then decompose it. Then examine the VIDEO column to see if everything is DNxHD. Or instead of decomposing, but the sequence in its own bin and then set the bin display (hamburger menu in the bin or contextual) to show SOURCES. This will fill up the bin with every source that contributes to that sequence. Then sort on the VIDEO column and check to make sure everything is DNxHD. This won’t help with a bad render though.

Could be a specific file in the sequence that doesn’t deal well with “same as source.” Is everything ABSOLUTELY DNxHD? If you have some AMA, this could happen. It also could be a bad render stopping it from working. Possibly an import of a ProRes file where you opted not to import as DNxHD?

Try to export NOT the whole sequence. Just see if you can export the first minute or the last minute or some minute in the middle. Does that work?

I'm trying to export a 87 minute cut to QT Movie, same a source, Avid codecs and I keep getting the following error message:

!Exception: std::exception, what:[CQTExportWorkingThreadBody] Threads::SendThreadMessage: Thread message queue full MainThread~DeferredDisplayWait

Couldn't happen at a worse time. Anny suggestions?

Thanks
