Adobe Media Encoder

I'm animating a large selection of png files in multiple projects..  In the past, I've imported them into Premiere and changed the Clip Speed / Duration, and rendered.  I need each png file to be displayed a certain about of time kinda like a slide show.  Since I'm dealing with 10s of thousands of frames to animate in multiple projects, this has been a slow process.I discovered only recently that Media Encoder can animate frames from a directory without using Premiere -- awesome!!   But I can't seem to change the Clip Speed / Duration What if I want each png file to be displayed for 1 second each? Where can I change this in ME?  I've spent hours researching and I'm coming up blank.  Is there a way to generate an animation from png frames where I can specify how long to show each png?Thanks!!!!

Sending render job out of AE to AME.  Comp is 1080x1080 square for Insta.  Have selected DNxHR MXF-Op1a format option, and using the resolution independent flavor of DNxHR-HQx.Inspecting the file in MediaInfo.app I can see the metadata says the display aspect ratio of the .mxf is 16:9 (wrong!).  Ingesting the file into various apps for QC yields different, and inconsistent results.  Sometimes it looks correct with 1:1 square aspect ratio, other times it adheres to the 16:9 flag and stretches.  The .xmp file produced by AME at the same time as the .mxf must be in the same folder to have the media interpreted correctly 100% of the time. Presumably the line {xmpDM:videoPixelAspectRatio="1/1"} is what alerts the video players (and/or AME on re-ingest) that the video is to be interpreted as square.  If I export the same comp to Quicktime .mov as DNxHR-HQx I do not encounter the aspect ratio issue.  Its just the .mxf file, which we obviously prefer.Anything

Hello, community I am new to the forums this is my first post. Adobe Media Encoder fails to encode a project imported from After Effects CC. I did search the forums and tried possible solution posted which was to disable "import sequences natively" and changing video renderer to "Mercury Playback Software Engine Only" in preferferences > General in Adobe Media Encoder Settings.Unfortunately trying the suggestions has not helped, I hope someone can help me resolve this issue please see the error below;------------------------------------------------------------ - Encoding Time: 00:10:1808/24/2018 07:58:28 PM : Encoding Failed------------------------------------------------------------Export ErrorError compiling movie.Render ErrorRender returned error.Writing with exporter: H.264Writing to file: \\?\C:\Users\James\Downloads\Compressed\high-tech-logo\high-tech_logo\high-tech_logo (converted)_AME\High-Tech Logo.mp4Writing file type: H264Around timecode: 00:00:01:17 - 00:00:02:01Renderin

I have a sequence in Adobe Premiere that I need to export as a Motion JPEG in order for it to play from a thumb drive directly connected to a TV. This is the only sort of motion format the tv accepts....Thanks for nothing Sanyo .PLEASE ADVISE.

Hi,I noticed, that the effect "loudness normalization" does not work properly when rendering one source to multiple outputs at the same time. I have 2 outputs (both h.264 and aac audio) and added the "loudness normalization" to both outputs, but with different settings. The results are completely different from the renderings with only one output at a time, but with identical settings. It would be nice to render to more than one output with stable results! Or did I totally miss something?Best,Normann

Hej,I've been trying to render out a project and after different render settings, lengths, and options, my Media Encoder keeps failing at one specific time stamp. I've come to the conclusion that my source After Effects file may be corrupted in some way, since the render completely gives out no matter if I render half, 1/4, or just the end of the composition, and no matter what adjustments are made to my render settings,I'm unsure what I can do to rectify this issue, since in my source media at that specific time stamp, no new media is introduced (no new comps, frames, etc....seems to happen mid comp for one specific comp).Any idea what I can do to rectify the issue? The report that's generated says the following:Additional Info:Media Encoder CC (12.1.2 Build 69) [and updated and tried again before posting this...no change]After Effects CC (15.1.2 Build 69) [also updated]Mac OSHigh Sierra 10.13.5Not too sure about the codec, but I'm rendering out at H264, and in a .mp4 container... whe

Let's say I import a video (and let the Media Encoder make a proxy to be able to work with the video) and cut out a small part of the video in the middle. I then paste it in the timeline in Premiere Pro. I then want to export this cutout, but when I go to the export window the part that I cut out (which is in my timeline) is not there, instead of a clip from the beginning of the source video is shown (also the duration of the clip is the exact same as my cutout). Why does this happen?? Is it something common that can be easily fixed?Thanks!

Hi! I've been using prores LT for my editing and recently, I've tried DNXHD (LB only, don't need the higher ones) and found out that the file size is way lower than prores LT.My only problem is I can't find the option to match frame rate and resolution when batch transcoding mp4s to DNXHD. Doing it manually will take a long time when dealing with multiple frame rates and resolutions.Any suggestions?

When I render out of After effects through Media Encoder sometimes the audio warps and the timing is off. The audio is fin in AE just not after being rendered through AME. Is there a fix for this?

Hey There. I am having a major problem here trying to export alpha transparency in Media Encoder from After Effects. I've been pulling my hair for a week trying different settings/etc and when I finally seemed to get things down, then something else would pop up. So, now when I used all my fancy customized presets, I now get a stupid 'ring/border-like' artifact thing wrapped around my object (with transparency behind that!!!!!!!!!). I spent all night again Googling and trying different settings but the results are all the same.  http://slhgraphics.com/MediaEncoderAlphaAE/Media Encoder? NOT very intuitive and confusing process between the two, in my opinion. Shouldn't be this hard. I was getting 3gb files when I only needed 35mb and had to spend hours trying to figure out how to knock that size down in qt!!!!!!!! Not happy.

When I have multiple sequences in AME queuing to be encoded to MPEG2-DVD the final clip has some audio from a completely different project.  This has happened several times.  I am using the latest update Premiere 12.1.2 (build 69) .  So far, this has only happened when encoding to MPEG2-DVD or Bluray, not H.264.  I could possibly (although unforgivably) understand if all of the encodings were simultaneous, but since they are encoding one at a time, I don't understand how this could happen.

Windows 10 1803Adobe ME 12.1.2CUDA with 1x 1070 ti 3x 1080 tiTrying to encode cineform (.mov) proxies for hundreds of interviews. Every time I set it to go, it makes it through about 3-4 of them before hanging half way through one. Never hangs on the same one twice, just restarts the queue and hangs a few encodes later. Not unresponsive, but the encoding itself is frozen. I am still able to save the queue, but as soon as I go to close the app, it completely freezes and requires shutdown via task manager. Seriously need a fix for this

All the settings say 1920 x 1080 and it always renders as 2327 × 1080.

Hello everyone, My client expects us to deliver all videos in Full HD with a bitrate between 10 Mbit/s and 11,5 Mbit/s. Media encoder delivers different results for each clip - no matter what settings I use. I have tried 11,0 Mbit/s CBR and 11 Mbit/s VBR with both sliders (Min and MAX) set to 11,0 Mbit/s).I have also tried different profiles (Main and High) and levels. The videos are pretty much the same all the time - a model in front of a grey background. Some videos always come out with a too high bitrate, some always with a too low bitrate. I use mediainfo an ffprobe to check the bitrate of the videos. Does anyone have an idea how to fix thís and produce videos with an continous and precise bitrate?best regards, Martin

When I try to export a scene to video with "Adobe Media Encoder" in "Adobe Character Animator", AME returns an error, saying that it is impossible to read the origin and when I tried to add a new origin in AME queue and I selected the .chproj archive (character animator archive) , AME returns a Dynamic Link error sying that it can not connect to the selected application (Character animator in this case).This is the error that I find in the error log of the AME.- File of origin: F: \ ... \ larguito Puppet.chproj  - Output file: C: \ ... \ Desktop \ Scene - larguito.mp4  - Preset used: YouTube HD 1080p  - Video:  - Audio:  - Bit rate:  - Coding time: 00:00:0008/20/2018 10:59:59 AM: Coding error------------------------------------------------------------The origin can not be read.

I'm trying to change the codec of 300 or so files through Media Encoder. However, if I try to select about 10 files at a time and just change the codec (not even rendering yet) the software freezes and becomes unresponsive.I can render only about 3 files at a time, one by one, before Encoder freezes, too. I contacted a technical agent who had access to my computer, and he helped with getting Encoder to work at all, but the freezing is very much still there.Just let me know what info you want about my hard/software in order for you to best help me.

When exporting the animation,it was exorted in .mp4 format but when opened the exported file it was just a sound file,no animation,only sound,but when trying it again the new exported file didnt appeared and the old remained,they appeared in media encorder cc but when exporting them somewhere they didnt appeared,please help me faster PLEAAAASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, I need to export video from premier pro 2018 in the following format: Entropy coding mode = CAVLC (Do not use CABAC!)AVC Profile = Main Profile and Level 4.0 (Main@4.0)Codec = H.264 (MPEG-4, Part 10)The new veriosn of Premier Pro CC does not have the older options. (used to export through Android 1080s preset, entropy code would be CAVLC) How can I export video in CAVCL main profile  in Premier Pro CC 2018 ? Thank you !

Hi, I hope that you might be able to help me. I need to save an animated GIF I have created in Photoshop CC 2018 into a Quicktime Pro. Res. 422 (HD or 1920 x 1080 preferred, aspect ratio 16:9) file. Any ideas? Many thanks.

Good evening,I edited a sequence with Premiere Pro CC 2017 with an input file in 4K of 2 hours (3,5 Go), in a sequence in resolution 1280x720 (for Vimeo): the export to H264 format in minimum and maximum speed 5, in VBR 2 passes is announced by Media Encoder to last 24 hours. Having to provide my video before this deadline, I cut my 2h sequence to make 2 sequences of 1h and Media Encoder 2017 now announces me 16h per sequence to export!Have you ever encountered this kind of export delay (for me, this is the first time I've such a delay) or can you tell me what I could do to reduce the export time?Thanks in advance for your help!Bonsoir,J'ai édité une séquence avec Premiere Pro CC 2017 avec un fichier d'entrée en 4K de 2 heures (3,5 Go), dans une séquence en résolution 1280x720 (pour Vimeo) : l'exportation au format H264 en vitesse minimum et maximum 5, en VBR 2 passes est annoncée par Media Encoder pour durer 24 heures.

I am pretty new to After Effects and I am trying to work on a VR project. I have created animations with transparent backgrounds and when I add them to the Render Queue I read on a different forum answer to change it to RGB + Alpha, and change Quicktime to Quicktime PNG. When I try to save it as Quicktime PNG I dont have all the options shown in the photo in the other post and I definitely do not have the PNG. I am using this video with ar.js so I need it to be less than 4MB, and MP4. What do I do? Thanks!

It used to work fine but since 1 week I am facing this problem. I cannot open it and only displays this message. I have tried to reinstall it many times but still the same thing comes again and again. Please help me

So, things have been working fine up to now. just yesterday, premiere pro started only importing sound from videos. I tried re-encoding the video, but got this error instead. Can anybody give me a hand here?------------------------------------------------------------ - Encoding Time: 00:00:0007/26/2018 06:54:38 AM : Encoding Failed------------------------------------------------------------Export ErrorError compiling movie.Export ErrorFailed to create encoder.Writing to file: \\?\C:\Users\temp\Videos\Counter-strike  Global Offensive\1.mp4Writing file type: H264Around timecode: 00;00;00;00Error code: -1610153464------------------------------------------------------------

Hi I'm having an issue with Media Encoder on my new render server.The problem is that various GPU accelerated effects, mainly glow bases ones as they are most obvious, are not rendering as they should, I.e. not leveraging the GPU at all as though I am rendering in software mode, despite the GPU being heavily utilised when rendering and After Effects displaying and rendering them fine internally.I don't have this problem on my main PC which is in itself a problem since I built the server so that I could use that instead.Cuda does appear on the renderer list and is selected.Any ideas please tell me as I'm losing my patience here.Server specs.Dual X5675 Xeons (12 Cores 24 Threads)24GB DDR3 RamGTX 1060 3GB (Couldn't afford a quadro)8 port LSI raid controller1TB WD SSHD for the boot drive24TB Raid 5 Array256GB Samsung SSD for the scratch diskMedia Encoder v12.0 (Updating to v12.1 seemed to actually make things worse as GPU usage hit 0% and render times tanked.)Again rendering from After Eff
