Creating MP3 files in Premiere?
 
I would like to create MP3s in Premiere 6.5. Is this possible? In the compressor menu, I found a compressor called MPEG Layer-3. Is that the MP3 compressor?

Yes, I believe it is. You could download and install the Lame mp3 codec and try it out.

Every time I try to use that MP3 (MPEG Layer-3) compressor, it crashes the encoder.

You could export a .wav file, and then encode it to with a stand alone MP3 encoder. Check out the following two Web page for some options that can be used with the Lame MP3 encoding engine:

i think you are not supposed to edit with .mp3 either in premiere.

Ideally, probably not. But I've done it, both with Premiere Pro and I believe in Premiere 6 as well.

Premiere crashes for me when I try to use mp3 files. and I just found out that's what was causing it. mp3s + Premiere = trouble.

I am able to load and use MP3 files in Premiere's timeline but it will crash if I try to create and export an MP3 file using the MPEG Layer 3 compressor.

Echoing Christopher's post - exporting WAVs then encoding with a third party encoder is pretty painless. Plus you can keep the full-quality WAVs for future use, to burn an audio CD or to convert to other formats if needed (Windows Media, RealAudio, etc). CDEx is the free app I use to convert from WAV to MP3.

maybe it's the transcode settings, because it's always worked for me. I'm using PPro 1.5.1, and I can throw tons of MP3 on the timeline, with no beef.

Carlos and Pushpa, the issue is not importing existing mp3 files into the timeline, it's creating them by exporting. Try that and see what happens.
