5. Fejlfinding af almindelige problemer

This section addresses common problems you might encounter while using Adobe Premiere Pro.

5.1 "Error Compiling Movie" During Export

This error often indicates an issue with rendering or a specific frame. A common solution is to change the video rendering and playback engine.

1. Gå til File > Project Settings > General.
2. Under "Video Rendering and Playback," change the "Renderer" from "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA/OpenCL)" to "Mercury Playback Engine Software Only".
3. Klik OK and attempt to export your video again.

This change forces Premiere Pro to use your CPU for rendering, bypassing potential GPU-related issues. Remember to switch back to GPU acceleration if the issue is resolved and you need faster rendering for other projects.

5.2 Playback Stuttering or Lag

• Check System Resources: Ensure your computer meets or exceeds the recommended system requirements. Close other demanding applications.
• Render Preview Files: Render your timeline (Sequence > Render In to Out) to create preview files for smoother playback.
• Adjust Playback Resolution: In the Program Monitor, lower the playback resolution (e.g., 1/2 or 1/4) to reduce the processing load.
• Use Proxies: For high-resolution footage (4K, 8K), create and use proxy media (File > Project Settings > Ingest Settings or right-click clip > Proxy > Create Proxies).

5.3 Missing Media Files

If Premiere Pro shows "Media Offline" messages, it means the software cannot locate your source files.

• Relink Media: In the Project panel, right-click on an offline clip and select "Link Media." Navigate to the new location of your files.
• Undgå at flytte Files: Always keep your source media files in their original locations after importing them into Premiere Pro. If you must move them, relink them immediately.
