Export Movie with preset HDTV 1920x1080 H264 50FPS

Hi,

I am using MEP Plus v16.0.2.56 (UDP3)

Strange thing happens...Exporting video as MP4 and with preset Export Movie HDTV 1920x1080 H264 50FPS I already rendered several videos without problem,

Last I used the HTML option in the advanced settings, since then it went wrong....

Now when starting the rendering with same settings I see in the progress windows that no video data and no audio data is available. Also when the rendering is finished the final file is 0KB.

I tried to use different AVC preset settings in the advanced video settings, but nothing helps...

I can still render the same video project as HEVC and preset MP4 Full HD 1920x1080 50 and have no problems...

I included some screen pictures with the settings in AVC...

Any idea what happened ? Which settings should I use...? Thanks for the help... Jean Pierre

Try turning off Calculate video effects on GPU acceleration in the MP4 export dialog - 2nd and 5th image - if you are using hardware acceleration in the programs settings this can cause empty mp4's on export.

Hi John,

Together with Calculate video effects on GPU I turned off also the hardware acceleration in program settings and although in the "Making Video" pane while rendering it says "Video: not available" and "Audio: not available" it seams in windows file explorer I see the mp4 file adding up. Once the rendering is finished I will try the final video and see of it is playing and I will come back to you probably tomorrow...

Greetings,

Hi jpverbeke

Hopefully your current rendering should be OK with both those settings turned off and using MainConcept codec.

If it does fail and you get a blank video, I think the issue is the MainConcept codec - try changing the Program settings (Y key), Import/Export tab settings from MainConcept to Default - do this for both import and export options.

Restart the program and try the export again with hardware acceleration turned on. The Default export option forces the use of the Intel HD codecs which are actually faster at encoding than the MainConcept codec. You will find the presets are fewer and have different names and there are fewer advanced options available.

Hi John,

With those last settings: Calculate video effects on GPU and Hardware Acceleration both turned off the rendering seamed to go well but while watching the exported video some title effects went wrong...

Logically I thought this had to do something with the Calculate video effects on GPU turned off .... So I put it back on and that seamed to solve the problem with the title effects. Also the "Making Video" pane shows "Video: Not Available" and "Audio: Not Available"

Then tried the with changing the setting MainConcept to Default. It also works but took much more time to render.

So I stick to the last settings, back to MainConcept and Calculate video effects on GPU turned to on and Hardware Acceleration turned off altough the "Making Video" pane shows "Video: Not Available" and "Audio: Not Available". Any idea why this happens ?

Greeting,
