Cineform 3D, Premire Pro CS 5 and exporting at DVinfo.net

Ron Niebrugge · December 14th, 2010, 11:25 PM

I'm really hoping someone has come across this problem and will have a suggestion or solution. I need to export my 3D sequence into a side by side H.264 format. When I do this, I lose most all my titles - one still shows, but is truncated. I actually lose my titles in most export format, and in different modes like red / cyan.

I updated all my hardware drivers including the Nvidia video card and glasses. I am running the latest version of Neo 3D, I have uninstalled PP CS 5 and reinstalled it, and it is updated as of yesterday. I export directly, I don't que into the media encoder. I'm running Window 7 - updates are current, 12 GB of ram and a SSD drive.

Pressure is mounting on this export, and I'm running out of options, if anyone has any suggestions I would be grateful.

You must first render a sequence with titles and graphics out to a Cineform 3d Intermediate. There is a little checkbox in the Premiere export settings that must be selected, I think it is only there when exporting to a Cineform file type. Then reimport that file and you will be able to export to h.264 in what ever 3d format you choose.

Thanks a lot Mark - I should have posted this question awhile ago, I will stop trying those other methods.

That export method does preserve my titles, but turns a time-lapse sequence to a solid black. Figuring out why my time-lapse goes to black is probably is where I will concentrate my efforts. Any thoughts on why that might happen.

I should add, my time-lapse exports just fine in every other export method - but then I lose my titles.

Again, I appreciate your feedback.

Glad I could help Ron.

No idea with the time-lapse though.

Thanks again for your help Mark. I was finally able to get the time-lapse to work, so the export / import / export method works. Thanks again.
