[@ruebenwahab4461]

THANK YOU for this video! You saved me some serious headaches. After 6 grueling hours of editing a project, I went to export and had multiple failures; I spent the next 2 hours goolging fixes before I came across this video - it was the only one with solutions that worked.

[@GDHT]

Wow thank you!! I'm so glad the video helped!

[@pnartg]

Thank you for taking the time to suggest these possibilities. This problem is so common that there's an even longer list out on the interwebs, including freeing memory, adding more memory, changes to your harddrive, etc. But basically, this is ridiculous! Premiere Pro is supposed to be a professional tool (Adobe: take a hint - that's what "pro" means). People have actual money, jobs, projects and assignments riding on this and there is NO excuse for a "professional" tool to just do NOTHING when you click on Export Media and not give an error message suggesting what the problem is!

[@GDHT]

Right! Hopefully they get it fixed soon - although I doubt they'll ever see your comment. :/

[@amyguyer8648]

You are a lifesaver! I would never have gotten my first project exported without your tutorial. Render In to Out was the trick for mine. Could never have figured that out on my own. THANK YOU!

[@GDHT]

Thank you - I'm glad it was helpful!

[@BroCodez]

Trick #1 worked! I wonder why. Thanks!

[@GDHT]

You're welcome!

[@merkem8567]

I was stuck for 2 days trying to export my media, no matter how much I researched and tried different ways to resolve the issue I continuously came up with nothing. Then i found your video, and it was beyond helful! thank you so much for making this video!

[@GDHT]

You're welcome - I'm glad it helped!

[@marsstuff8378]

Thank You! What worked for me was to create amother secuence and don't save it, then export, I don't know ehh when I save it it won't let me export

[@GDHT]

So it's still not working? Let me know if you're still having issues.

[@marsstuff8378]

@@GDHT oh My god, sorry for the mistakes lmao, my phone is in spanish .... Yeah, it's just a little extra step I have to take, and if it doesnt work i'll just copy and paste it in another secuence , thank You again!

[@GDHT]

@@marsstuff8378 ok! Good luck!

[@VictorSperry]

Thank you so much! For some oddly reason when I changed the sequence it did work!

[@shiying6384]

Hi I need some help😩 I have repeat the third way(copy and paste to new sequence) but the size of the video squeeze to smaller size after open up and paste to new sequence,but I need the original size,how can I fix it?

[@GDHT]

Go to your old sequence and check your sequence settings. Then in your new sequence, make the settings the same. This happens to me often too!

[@magangp]

Hello, please help me I just do ctral+a and just paste the new sequences, but i just get different aspect ratio Please help me how to bring back pleaseee 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@GDHT]

It sounds like your sequence settings are different. Check Sequence > Sequence Settings. Make sure your aspect ratio, frame size, and other settings match the original sequence.

[@shepherd7583]

2 years later and it still works. God bless

[@GDHT]

Thank you so much!!

[@Pax_the_Casual]

I appreciate the attempt. None of these worked for me, unfortunately, but this would be the fourth video I've tried of unique troubleshooting solutions. Whenever attempting to export the window doesn't come up, program freezes, then doesn't respond.

[@GDHT]

I would try resetting your preferences as a last resort. How much ram do you have?

[@sirfrancis9619]

Great thanks... ctrl all did the trick.... How bizarre though, I've been exporting files for 12 months without a problem ..then suddenly nothing! weird

[@GDHT]

Yes, I had the same experience! Years of everything working fine, then suddenly it started doing that. Ugh! At least there's a workaround.

[@MrBrainJunkie]

thank you, you save my life!

[@GDHT]

You're welcome! I'm so glad it fixed your issue!

[@reverbwithmark5563]

Help please. After I exported the file (video). When I play it using my default player. The video isn't complete as what I expected in the file. :(

[@GDHT]

It sounds like you need to change your In and Out points and re-render, then export. Let me know if you're still having trouble!

[@reverbwithmark5563]

@@GDHT I found out that its because of the effects I applied. Thank you so much! Its okay now. The rendered video is complete

[@GDHT]

@@reverbwithmark5563 oh ok, great! Glad you got it figured out.

[@Clyde_Lewis]

Thank you so much for this great video. It really helped, and your friendly speaking style is not distracting but adds to the learning.

[@GDHT]

You're welcome! And thank you!

[@JTXRP]

have you figured out why my export to youtube, under publish is gone?

[@GDHT]

I'm not sure, but sometimes when things like that happen, you can reset your preferences to fix it.

[@theworldsbestwaytolearnger1397]

It worked for me thank you

[@GDHT]

You're welcome!

[@KatiaFlakes]

Thank you SO much for this!! No other video explained the I-end-O in order to select for the sequence. This saved me for my project due today. You're the best!

That is great - I'm so glad it helped!!

[@truongminhduc5824]

Thank you for your video. Pls help to fix my problem with render. I have just used MACmini and render file in Premier pro 2023 but can not with notice "can not write destination Media file to .......because it is locked. Access is denied". I still render this file in WIN but render in MAC can not with this notice. Pls help to support. Thank you

Ooh, this is something I've never run into before. It sounds like an Admin problem, though.

@@GDHT SAME THANKS!

[@bodyengine-weightlossfitne5991]

any idea why when I export without a background it defaults to black after exporting?

[@GDHT]

That is normal Premiere behavior - if you want a transparent background, there are a few steps involved - you can search 'Export Video with a Transparent Background' here on KZbin to find tutorials.

[@geniusvadim7858]

I have a similar issue but not exactly that, my media encoder doesn't even open up and when it does it doesn't show the file..

[@GDHT]

Hmmm, not sure about that one.

[@geniusvadim7858]

@@GDHT I fixed it by closing and reopening Premier Pro... 😂 Tech genius.

[@GDHT]

Yesss! 😂

[@nikocoric9908]

Thank you, resetting the preferences worked for me. My video was almost 2.5 hours long. My professor in college told me that the .mov file containers are really stable for premiere. I was using mp4 since OBS seems to have lighter processing load when exporting to mp4.

[@GDHT]

You're welcome - i'm so glad it helped!

[@samhalle_]

the third one worked for me but i can’t seem to get it back to it’s proper size? it’s square

[@GDHT]

Do you mean the size of your video changed? Even after export?

[@saranesson8369]

Thank you!! Resetting the preferences with the Option function was the only thing that worked for me.

[@GDHT]

You're welcome!! Sometimes a good prefs reset is the only way.

[@SiddhiArts5172]

The option of export is not given in export setting how I export it please give solution please

[@js9325]

KZbin doesn’t show in export how can I fix that?

You'll need to change that in Sequence > Sequence Settings. Your export settings will be 'Media.'
