Adobe Premiere Pro Problems

Zuntyh · 03-21-2008, 08:24 AM

Hey, well I decided I wanted to make videos for gameplay on games, I got my footage and stuff. I then got Premiere Pro 2 as I heard it was good for proffesional videos, I used windows movie maker before but it wasn't the greatest :P. Anyway so I load up my footage on it, however if I move through the video or do something it just crashes... blanks out or restarts my computer. This is really irritating as I cannot get anythnig done, I occasionally get a blue screen error saying something about atidv.. cant remember the rest .ddl . I would sometimes get a VPU recover message? Or that my card isnt responding.

I have a HD ATi Radeon 2400 pro graphics card and a Quad core processor. Anyone know how to resolve this? I'd be very grateful and Ive looked everywhere.

Also if anyone knows how to cut bits out of a video on it? I mean it always says just do a rough cut... maybe if I was told how to do one that might help. I mean its so complex.. why can't you just select a part of the video on the timeline and hit delete :/.

For cutting bits out - move the playhead to where you want to start cutting - split the clip, then move playhead to where you want to end the cut - split the clip. The resulting small(?) clip you have made can then be deleted by right clicking on it and select "delete and close gap". this will get rid of the bit you don't want and move the following bit to close the gap formed by the deletion.
As for your other question - what RAM do you have? Premiere is a known memory hog and will freeze comp if you haven't enough RAM to cope with large file size renders etc.

You may need to reinstall or update your video card drivers - atidvag.dll is a display driver. Go to the site for your video card and download and install the latest drivers.

I decided to use Sony Vegas instead, less problems and easier to use. This is solved then ^^.
