Hi
I am trying to edit a MKV file using Womble rendering it to a 1920x800 150 mins ~8GB MP4. The render always crashes at aroun 4.X mark. Latest crash at 4.41 GB.
I am using Win-7 x64 (NTFS).

When I try to render in parts e.g. 40 mins it woks fine & render completes.
Can someone tell me why this is happening & what I can do to avoid it?
 
AFAIK Womble cannot encode HD...
 
Womble can, but it's not a good idea. I would strongly advise the OP to invest in a decent NLE.

As a longtime Womble user this is a horrible idea. The only thing Womble handles well is SD MPEG files. I agree with Captain K's suggestion to invest in a decent NLE.
 
I can try out Premiere Pro. However, it doesn't natively edit MKV.
1. What format should I convert the original HD MKV file to?
2. Which converter to use (& maybe the settings)?
3. What Sequence Presets during Project Settings to use in Premiere Pro as I can only see all defualt Camera Presets in there.

Thanks. :)
 
note, MKV is a container, not a codec. There is probably a h264 HD stream inside the container. If you remux into an MP4, premiere might be able to handle it. That said, I never recommend editing compressed streams. You have the best luck converting to a lossless AVI. That will require a decent amount of HDD space though.
 
You could also strip parts out using mkvmergeGUI
