Adobe Media Encoder

After updating my Premiere and Media Encoder, now when I send to Media Encoder to export, the captions disappear in Media Encoder.  I have "Burn Captions" checked and everything and it still doesn't work.

Why is there an option to set a global output folder in the preferences of the media encoder, if that feature simply does'nt work?? Every time I add a new file to the queue, it sets the output path to the windows system document folder, not the one I specified in the preference.  It would be much easier, if you let us set a local output folder in the presets. Instead, Adobe added lots of (barely useful) option to save to CC Cloud, Behance, Youtube, FTP,  Twitter. Vimeo, Facebook aso. But there is absolutely no option to set a local harddrive folder?Anyone can tell me how to set an output folder in a way that will actually set an output folder?

I made the mistake of activating HDR on my iPhone footage, went to export to Adobe Premiere Pro and had to make adjustments one by one to Rec 709. Is there any way to do this at once on multiple videos through Media Encoder?

I have Adobe Media Encoder installed on my system via Adobe Technical Communication Suite. My service desk has asked that I update it (due to a vulnerability being detected). I have tried updating through the TCS (Tech Comm Suite) installer, but it just re-installed the original version (22.6 Build 65), whereas apparently the product is now on a December 2024 release (v 25.1).Attempting to update through the application interface results in a "Updates have been disabled for this machine. Please contact your administrator." error - but all the other updates for TCS that I use (Captivate and RoboHelp) actively detect updates for the application (that the service desk installs for me, as I don't have admin on my work laptop). I do not know why I'd get the "updates disabled error" where everything else seems to allow updates (and nor does the service desk). I do NOT have a Creative Cloud subscription so can't update through that. Any guidance appreciated. Thank you

Please check if it has moved or been deleted. I've been having this issue for a few months. Everytime I try to render something from After Effects to AME it ALWAYS fails. Actually it doens't even start, it fails before starting to render anything. It happens with every single project, both in mp4 and quicktime (the two formats I usually use) and in general in every single situation. I'm basically not able to use AME ever. I always have to export through After Effects and it's extremely annoying since I am forced to stop working whenever I need to export. I was able to fix this issue in the past by changing "Mercury Playback Engine Software Only" but now it started not working again and I haven't cha

As in the previous published ME version this fall, HDR export with native Canon Log3 in Rec2020 is still not working. It looks as if a LUT is missing, but the project in PP is w/o LUT as native import. This was working before until ME version 25.0.

Hola! Necesito ayuda con el color de un video.Ayer empece a exportar un video de Premiere Pro a media encoder. La primera vez que lo ocupe, un leí que habia que desabiltar la casilla de "Importar secuencias de forma nativa" lo hice y al exportar el proyecto, el color era el especifo hecho en premiere pro.  El video esta en 4k y lo exporte en H265 Hoy al intentar exportarlo de nuevo, no me copia el color adecuado. lo he intentado exportar en h264, h265, HD, UHD, es decir todas las combinaciones posibles y el problema persiste.les dejo un screenshoot de el primer color exportado con y sin secuencia de forma nativa. 

Últimamente Media Encoder no hace más que causarme problemas, pareciera que de forma aleatoria decide renderizar con la CPU en lugar de la GPU. Si renderizo dentro de Premiere, veo en el administrador de tareas que se usa en su mayoria la GPU y el renderizado es rápido. Si renderizo EXACTAMENTE EL MISMO PROYECTO dentro de Media Encoder la mayoría de las veces renderiza usando 100% del CPU y tarda mucho, pero mucho más tiempo. Entonces esa respuesta que leo en todos lados de que "ciertos efectos usan gpu y otros no" no tiene nada que ver. El mismo proyecto pasa de durar 1 hora de renderizado en Premiere a durar casi 6 horas dentro de Media Encoder.

An adobe emplyee instrructed me to post this issue here because he believes its a Media Encoder issue:I keep getting this error message (amecommand Initilization error 1), when I try to render a video in Photoshop & Photoshop Beta, both the newest versions. I uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop, Bridge & Media Encoder, but still doing the same thing.

Did Adobe end WebM Support for Media Encoder 2025.1? It worked for previous versions. When I try to import the preset, I get a message "Preset could not be imported. No exporter found for this project. Mac OS 14.6CC 2025

Hi guys,My media encoder fails to render lately. It doesn't matter to which codec I export, nor which project, nor which software I use (AE / Premiere Pro)I constantly get the message attached under here. I already deleted the cache files form all software, reinstalled media encoder, etc. etc... but nothing works. The weird thing is that the fail-message isn't right. It keeps referring to an old project. While I'm exporting to Prores it keeps talking about H.264Any ideas?Specs from my workstation:Media Encoder CC2019 v13.0.2MacPro mid 2013 6 core, os 10.14.4 Thanks a lot!Fail message:------------------------------------------------------------ - Encoding Time: 00:00:3004/02/2019 12:05:10 PM : Encoding Failed------------------------------------------------------------Export ErrorError compiling movie.Render ErrorRender returned error.Writing with exporter: QuickTimeWriting to file: /var/folders/dn/qgg854594d5_77w0b86b66040000gn/T/Untitled Project_AME/Comp 1.movAround timecode: 00:00:00:

Hi there, Here's what I'm doing:  I have a 4k video of someone talking to camera, so to add variation, I zoom in and out to different fixed positions. (I.e. scale to 100%, to 120% and 140%).  To make things easier for me, I set up different adjustment layers with a transform effect on them (on source) and scale to taste so I can then drop them on the timeline whenever I need to. I name them accordingly, "camera 1", "camera 2", etc... When I render via Premiere, things look all right:  But when I render using Media Encoder, the issue appears:  Media Encoder seems to be scaling from the upper corner of the videos instead of from the center of the videos... So I don't know if it's a bug nor what might be causing the issue. Do any of you have an idea why this might be happening? I'm using Windows 10, the version of Me is 25.1 (Build 65) and Pr is 25.1.0 (Build 73) Best,Mauro.

Hi, im using a mac and just got the Media Encoder today. My mac is kinda slow and rendering took over 6 hours. i didnt put any output file destinations and i can't find it anywhere! Where could it be?

In the Preset Browser, vertical scrolling works correctly (two-finger slide down to scroll up and vice versa), but bizarrely, horizontal scrolling is reversed (two finger slide left to scroll left and right to scroll right). Not difficult to figure out and use, but sort of embarrassing for the UI guys.

I do not often use Me and I had no idea this software is so ridiculously slow. Now that I'm looking at the elapsed and estimated times this gives me the impression that Media Encoder does not ustilize CUDA or uses the e-cores of my Intel CPU alone. This is my 48 minutes long project and after I started rendering the video, shows there's 10 (TEN!) hours left to finish. What is wrong with this software? The CUDA is activated, I tried making Me window active - the estimated time does not change at all. My CPU is 50% loaded, my graphics card is barely loaded though I'm rendering out into HEVC-h265.In comparison Premiere Pro rendered the same project out in ONE HOUR yesterday, though it's window was not active - I was watching Youtube during the whole rendering process.   I think there's a bug in it... Adobe, please see to it.Win10 updated, RTX 4080 with 551.61 and an NVIDIA fix driver, i7 13700 KF, 64 Gb, SSD.Premiere Pro 24.2.1, Media Encoder 24.2.1

Hey guys! I'm trying to render a .mp4 of a 18944 x 40 LED video. Media encoder is automatically changing the dimensions to 16384x34 when rendering.I've tried just about everything.Within Media Encoder's export settings, clicking 'match sequence' doesn't work.The video exportrs fine as a .mov, but that is not the spec the client needs. I've tried bringing the mov into AE and rendering that as a .mp4 and no luck there either. Any suggestions!???

Ich habe ein .AVI Video einer alten Kompaktkamera und möchte es in ein .mp4 Video umwandeln. Jedoch wird das Video danach dunkler mit höherem Kontrast und knalligeren Farben angezeigt. Ich habe bereits den Farbraum auf rec.601 angepasst, aber es ändert sich nichts. Im Quicktimeplayer wird das Video jedoch richtig angezeigt (Im Foto der Vergleich).

Is this possible? -AME watches a folder (that is a SD card)-When new files appear, it combines (stitches) all of the videos it finds-It encodes the videos using a profile (which adds a watermark image and saves it as a HEVC 5mbps file)-It deletes the original files from SD card

Hi there,We are recording a few webinars with Webex and the compression is really good. The webex video file is recorded with the following specs - 1920 x 1080, 25fps, Data rate 69 kbps, Audio - 31 kbps, mono, Audio sample rate 32.000 kHz. A 20 min file is about 20 MB. It is tought to beat.  I want to edit the videos and remove some parts with AME but the output file is really big...I use the H.264 presets and tried to put the specs as low as possible. For instance, I use the following specs - 1024 x 576, 25 fps, Bitrate enncodig - VBR, 1 pass, Target butrate (the lowest) [Mbps - 0.19]. File is tripple the size.Is there to retain the same compression so I dont end up when I remove 5% of the footage and republish with tripple the size file?Thanks in advanceBobby   

When batch encoding images into video files, the default duration is five seconds. Is there a way to change the default duration duration of still images, like you can in Premiere?

Hi! Media Encoder gets stuck on the splash screen with a "Loading DeckLinkTransmitter.bundle" message. Anyone else had this issue/have a fix? Thanks!
