I'm having a problem that I thought someone here might have encountered before.
I'm trying to export full-screen DV AVI video from the computer back to MiniDV tape via Firewire. I'm using Premeire and exporting to a TRV900 MiniDV cam. At random intervals, anywhere from every few minutes to a few seconds, the video and audio freezes up momentarily during export, as if another program is running in the background and hogging CPU.
The strange thing about this is that I have been doing this for all of three years with no problems, and now all of a sudden I'm seeing this freezing issue.
Here are the puzzling details:
- The problem happens on BOTH of my computers, 2.4Ghz laptop and 1.2Ghz desktop.
- No new software has been installed on either machine.
- Premiere is only using 35% of the CPU during the export when the freezing happens.
- Premiere is set to 'play back video on DV hardware only', not on the desktop.
- I notice the problem happens more with frequent lightning video (with rapidly alternating bright/dark frames), but it happens with non-lightning video from time to time.
- The problem happens both when recording to a MiniDV tape or doing a 'pass through' to a VCR.
Thanks for any info anyone can provide!
