Adobe Media Encoder

Hi all,  Iv been having on going issues with Media Encoder over the last few weeks. As of the beginning of this week though it seemed like everything was working again up until today when I have a deadline due (Murphys Law) I have been rendering this project for 2 hours and now it is hanging on 6 minutes left and no longer rendering. Im dreading to stop the render and try to rerender another 2 hours and it happens again? Has anyone figured this out? Please help, Media Encoder has really become the problem child of the Adobe apps UPDATE: So out of interest I decided to render the same project natively in After Effects and turns out, it rendered an hour faster and was successful as an mov. My faith in Media Encoder is declining rapidly.

given a video from canon dslr encoded to MP4/MOV H.264 4:2:0 (Full Range),why is it that after warp-stabilizing it in ae,media encoder will encode it back to h264 - at 10x smaller filesize for default bitrate- at 2x smaller filesize at maximum bitrate?

Is there any way to convince AME to preserve CC data in files when converting?  I work at a TV station and I need to occasionally flip shows and commercials from whatever format they come in to MPEG2, but I can't seem to get AME to preserve the CC text streams in the files.  Currently I have a watch folder set up and I just drop whatever needs flipping into that and let AME do it's job with a specific preset I've made to best match our play-out system.  I'm using 2017 and 2018 with the same results.

Hello,I am very new to this but I keep having the same problem that I can't seem to fix. I'm encoding a 15 minute video on a Windows 10 laptop from After effects. the video encodes for a few hours but always freezes on the same frame. I've tried H.264 and DNxHR HQ. the media Cache and media database are on different hard drives. again, I'm very new to this and not sure what information is needed or what i'm doing wrong. I would be greatly appreciative for any kind of help! Thanks so much! 

I am trying to export to the below specs but I cant seem to get all of the options. Is it even possible with Adobe Media encoder to export to this exact spec? Please, any help appretiated. Bit of a bind. Thank you!

Hello, I'm trying to transcode proxies for some red raw clips, and I'd like each of the proxies to live in the individual Red Raw clip folders. If I try and batch export all the clips from Premiere to make these transcodes, Media Encoder is trying to send all these output files to a single specific folder. I can't find any way to tell Media Encoder to just transcode each clip to the "Source folder", IE the clip folders they are coming from.  Obviously I could go to each clip and specify the output destination one at a time, but with hundreds of clips in my project, this seems less than ideal 🙂  Is there a way to do this?  Thanks! 

Hi.I used a media encoder to render the after effects video.But every time I run rendering my Mac shuts down. Reboot without notice.I use an iMac. I thought the iMac computer was the problem.However, I had the same problem when using my other iMac.My Mac is the latest version of Catalina.The Adobe program is also genuine and uses the latest version.How do I fix this?

Ahoj všichni. Když je možné použít iMacu vykreslit video připravené v Premiere Pro přes Media Encoder, video se načte a udělíme přehrávání a můj iMac se restartuje. Musím počkat, až se iMac znovu zapne. Musím vypnout a znovu spustit všechny programy Adobe, později bude vykreslení rizika. Když jsem ani vykreslil velké video za 4K (30 minut), Media Encoder se zapnul a zrušil restartoval. Vykreslování bylo jednou úspěšné, ale iMac střední se restartoval. Opravte tuto chybu. Ničí váš iMac a je to ztráta času.

Hi there, I was wondering if it is possible to set up an universal "Preset" folder on a network drive for example. As the folder is located in User\Documents\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\"version"\Presets we always have to copy a new created preset into all the other users folder on every single machine. It would be awesome to have a network based folder where the presets can be loaded into and Premiere and Media Encoder would have access to directly. Is that possible? Best regardsYoshi

Trying to remember what all the different compressed codecs that support "proper" alpha (I.e., alpha is baked in, not a double up separated alpha channel) and are supported in AME.If memory serves me:PNG+A image sequenceTIFF+A image sequenceAPR 4444+A 16 bitsHAP+Alpha Releases · Vidvox/hap-qt-codec · GitHub Apple Animation 8 bitsI am looking for a codec that is compressed but isn't as clunky as HAP+Alpha.I remember reading something about HEVC / h265 supporting alpha but I'm not finding documentation on that anywhere.

In Media Encoder, when I'm attempting to configure a preset to automatically publish to Vimeo upon encode, I click on the button to "login," and the web page that loads seems to lack formatting.  If I scroll down to find the login fields, and attempt to log in regardless, I receive an error that my form session expired, despite that I just opened the window.  I've had this problem on another computer with a different version of the application.  I'm currently on a 2016 Mac Pro OSX 10.11.6.  AME v 2017.1, build 11.1.0.107.  Any thoughts on what could be wrong?  Thanks!

I'm new to adobe so I don't know much about it. I created this edit on after effects and then added it to adobe media encoder. It renders for a bit but then all of a sudden stops. I tried rendering other projects and they render fine. I've also tried rendering directly from after effects but it also fails at the same point

Hallo, ich habe folgendes Problem: Ich habe mein Video fertig gestellt bei Premiere Pro und würde es jetzt gerne als MP4 abspeichern und hochladen. Wenn ich bei Premiere Pro auf Datei>Exportieren>Media (STRG + M) gehe passiert gar nichts. Also habe ich den Encoder geöffnet. Sobald ich meine Video dann umwandeln will hängt sich mein Media Encoder auf. Ich habe versucht die Ausgabedatein zu verändern oder ähnliches. Nichts hat funktioniert. Ich habe PC und Programm bestimmt 5 mal neu gestartet aber es passierte nichts. Ich weis nicht mehr weiter. Hoffe jemand kann mir helfen.  LG Ralf

Hi all,I've never had any trouble with AME before, but suddenly my PP project won't render all the way through and I'm not sure what the problem would be. The weird thing is that I can "export media" from PP to AME just fine, choose "Match source - High Bit rate" and it starts rendering. But around 1/3 - 1/2 the way through, it just stops and the resulting file is unplayable. Weirdly, there is no error message or error log, and the usual blue link to the finished file is greyed out. The sequence has been rendering fine until today. I made quite a few changes since my last render, so I'm really not sure what the culprit would be...it's all "more of the same" that I've been doing, nothing really new or different.Any ideas what I can do to troubleshoot?System infoWindows 10 pro (latest update), 32 gb RAM, i7-3770 3.40GHz, cache on an ssd (separate from OS drive), NVIDIA GTX1060 with 6 gb ram, source files on a fast RAID,Premiere Pro version 14.1.0 build 116Thanks!Lori

I have a complex motion graphic on my timeline.  When I send to Media Encoder, I get an error window saying the motion graphic is not there and will show media offline instead (something like that.) When I stay in PPro for export, the graphic stays online.  But I need to use ME because I have a lot of these episodes with this motion graphic to render out (its the show open) and turn over to the client on a very tight deadline.  I need to either be editing while ME works in the background or sleeping.   I've tried a tone of troubleshooting tricks but none have worked.   PPro 14.0 Media Encoder 14.0 Mojave 10.14.6 iMac 3.4 GHz Intel i7 16GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2GB

I updated AE and AME just recently, to AE 17.1.0, and AME 14.2.  Now if I Queue the render in AME, from AE, it opens AME just fine, and the project shows up in the list, but it won't render, and I can't connect through Dynamic Link to change any of the export settings.  I can click the arrows to change the file type and Presets, and can change the output file name.  But when I click the Preset name, it stays on the Dynamic Link Connection window, saying "Connecting to project".  If I just try to click Play to start the render, nothing happens.  The Output Preview at the bottom doesn't show anything.  That whole part of the window is blank/gray.  I can "stop" the render, even though it doesn't seem it ever started, but after that, I can't delete the project from the Queue.  I have to close AME and reopen it to clear the queue. I've downgraded AME to 14.1 and then to 14.0.4.  Neither of them worked.  I didn't downgrade AE, yet. 

Hey,When I capture a movie with my Nikon d5200 at 60i fps 1920X1080 and open it with Adobe Media Encoder 2020, the movie opens in half its time. and when I change the frame rate to 30p it working correctly. please tell me about setting that can solve this problem. thanks in advance.

Hello.For every video that I create in Adobe Premiere Pro, it always takes ages (> 1 hour) for Premiere or Media Encoder to generate the corresponding mp4 output (File > Export > Media). Today, it took almost 1,5 hour for a simple 14-minute video presentation to compile. I am not an expert so maybe it is just a question of adjusting some settings. Can anyone help me, please?Thank you very much in anticipation.Regards,

I have imported a bunch of clips in Premiere selected all of them and selected the "create proxy" option and then selected an ingest preset. As usual all the files were ingested in Adobe Media Encoder. However when Media Encoder finished the job I realized it had missed a few clips. I thought it might have slipped through and reselected only those clips to make proxies. However when I would click OK on the premiere window "create proxies" they would never show up on Adobe Encoder. I tried re exporting some of the files that actually Encoder was able to create proxys for an they re exported fine. It seems that for some reason Encoder is not able to make proxies for those files. Does anyone here have any leads on how to solve this? Thanks!

Just wanted to confirm that there's no reason to encode, say, a 16 Mbps file at 20 Mbps, both H.264 codecs with MP4 wrappers.  In fact, would it end up degrading the image a little or just have no effect but give you a larger file when there's no benefit to the file being a little larger than the original?

I've come across a little bug.  When searching on windows 10 on my task bar, I type in Media Encoder and only Media Encoder 2019 shows up, even though I have uninstalled it. When typing in Media encoder 2020 nothing shows up and say I click 2019 encoder, nothing happens since it's not installed. I have to click Start > and go down the applications list to launch Media Encoder 2020. Not sure why 2019 is even showing up since its not installed and why 2020 will not show up.  Windows problem or Adobe software bug? It's also crashed a lot when encoding 4k MXF's to H264, anyone having issues with the stability of encoder 2020? I might go back to 2019 if I can. 

I've read all the out of memory errors and don't see anything related to rendering H.265, so thought I would ask. Getting an out of memory error when trying to render from AE out to Adobe Media Encoder as H.265 (but you knew that ;-)) The project is one hour long - a 4K (3840 x 2160) animaiton with no audio. The sequence originated in PP and was sent over via A Dynamic Link, but PP is now closed and no longer needed (just to give you the back story). Anyway, 32 GB memory wth no reports of any issues from the O/S.  Any suggestions? Project is due tomorrow.  Thanks for any insights. Export ErrorError compiling

I believe I installed Media Encoder properly, but whenever I try to open it by itself or through After Effects, it never opens. It always shows the loading screen but after a bit, it just closes. Please, someone, help me.

Hi everyone!Someone can share me the Apple ProRes preset for Media Encoder CS6 "ProRes_Presets.zip" for Mac, this one:Adobe - Adobe Media Encoder : For Macintosh : AME CS6 Additional Presets for ProRes (MAC ONLY) : Thank Youbecause I'm trying to download but it doesn't works, it say that isn't available.
