File size limit for Compressor, or why Compressor won't accept my 1.55 TB video file.

Greetings,

I've exported a video from Premiere as a Quicktime 422HQ video to keep my chapter markers intact.

I now need to compress the video to 720p with H.264 or similar to keep the file size reasonable. The Master file export wound up being 1.55 TB in size. When trying to load the file into compressor to do the above mentioned export I get the "The file “June 17th_MASTER.mov” cannot be opened." response with no indication as to why.

Any ideas?

Sorry, this was a stupid question. I figured out after the fact that I had the master file duplicated on 2 different drives and had ejected the drive I was trying to export from. DOH!.
