Adobe Media Encoder

Ideally, I would like to import three videos into the Adobe Media Encoder for re-encoding and merge them together into only one resulting video file.  Is this possible?

Hi,I just found a great transition here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_RXqO6qFgQAfter I used it, everything looked nice till I tried render it with Media Encoder, I get every time render error.Basically I use .h264 codec, this time I tried lots of other, but I got same result.I found out, that Offset effect is the problem, if I turn it off, my render complete, but without Offset it looks bad.Also if I render inside AE, it gives no error, but there is no .h264 option anymore. Any idea?Thanks!Gábor

Hi all,This as happened twice over the last couple of months. I try to open Adobe Media Encoder and I get "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000142)". Linked to this, After Effects won't open. It appears in the Task Manager briefly but then disappears.Anyone come across this? Last time I could only fix it with a complete drive format and reinstally of windows. Having only done that four weeks ago, I'd rather not go through it all again!I've already tried the Adobe Cleaner and fresh reinstall. Video drivers, Adobe software and Windows 10 64bit are all up to date.Thanks for any help in advance.

It worked yesterday, today I'm trying to export 30 seconds of 3840x2160p 29.97 fps of film and the encoder stops encoding after 5 seconds. The program still works fine, like I can change the settings, pause and stop the export, but the progress bar stops moving and the timer for time encoding and time remaining stop. I then hit stop and the program crashes.

I just wanna ask if there is a way to drastically reduce the size of the files that encoder produces when transcoding video files for dvd authoring, such as the m2v file (mpeg2).The original mp4 file weighs around 750mb while the transcoded m2v file goes up to 3.5gb and also reduces the quality of the video, of which I seek to avoid as well.Any suggestions?

My project uses material shot with a JVC GY-HM750 as a.MOV wrapper in Sony XDCAM-EX at 1080 interlaced and at 29.97 frames per second Drop Frame.My project settings are 1080i, upper field first. When I use Encore to create DVDs, they apope4ar somewhat pixelated, as though at half resolution when watched on any screen. Am I doing something wrong in the encoding process. Does anyone4 else have this workflow and if so, what Media Encoder settings do you use?Thank you

Hi,I was trying AME scripting in AME 2015, the script is creating BridgeTalk to AME for rendering AfterEffects project and it works perfectly. My script is below.So I'd like to update AME version to 2017, I confirmed API changes and I noticed Encoder object lost encodeDL function in AME 2017.When I checked forum here, I found this discussion https://forums.adobe.com/message/9433816#9433816 and understood I can use addCompToBatch function.Okay, my question is:- How can I pass frame rate and output frame size?I want to pass a lot of combination of those, so it is not reasonable that I prepare a lot of presets for all combinations I want before scripting.One option is, I will make epr file dynamically. Is that reasonable? or somebody has idea?If I can pass AE composition id to AME for assigning rendering target as encodeDL function, it is good to me.Thanks,Hirofunction main(masterProjectPath, presetId, projectItemGuId, outputPath, priority,  preview_width, preview_height) {  var

My company uses Windows 7 Enterprise and all CC applications work great except for Media Encoder - it will not launch. It gives the following error message:     A check online for a solution yields nothing. Does anybody have suggestions for this problem?Thanks,Gordon Miller                     

I'm trying to convert an audio file to SWF for embedding into a PDF and the preset is missing. All my Adobe apps were downloaded last week and are running on a machine bought just a few days before that.Any ideas?Thanks

Hey folks.I'm kind of at the end of my rope here. I exported some files off my iPhone (taken in Filmic Pro). They are 4k video files at 24 fps. When I import the files into Premiere Pro, I only get the audio file (no video). Encoding directly in Media Encoder under the default settings (and some obvious alternative presets to try) results in an mp4 file which plays audio only file (with black video).Any ideas what is going on, and how to fix? Other videos from my iPhone seem to import just fine. Mike

Hi all,I have an 8-core render server that I built myself, originally meant for this purpose, but I've not had the time to put time into it. Now that I do have the time, I was wondering if it was possibly to export to an external instance of AME on the render machine (which runs Windows)?Logistically, I can probably build a hotkey, or something like that, to go through and launch AME on the render server using Remote desktop, but it would be so much easier if there was a built-in feature to export to the external server. Alternatively, can we develop a plugin for Premiere or AME that allows us to do what I described above?Thank you everyone,Kind regards,Caylem.

So here are my settings to export my animation as .mp4 file: Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet And here's the final result on Youtube: Sunrise Animations channel intro - YouTube Why does the quality looks worse than the preview? Can someone please help me?

Hello all,I am all of a sudden unable to export from a Premiere project.  If I export from Media Encoder, my usual preferred method, it stops and says "failed" about 10 minutes in.  When I click "failed", I get this error message in my textedit:When I try to export from Premiere, I get this pop up error message:The media in the project is all transcoded to ProRes 422 (LT), and I am exporting H264 files with the Vimeo 1080p HD preset (as I have always done).  I have never seen these exporting errors before, and have exported iterations of this project countless times.  It has been about two months since I had last opened the project.  All of my other projects (most of which are also transcoded to ProRes 422 LT codec before editing, but not all) export just fine. I am suspicious of the "source file" line in the Media Encoder error message, which is from a cache folder and is just a folder that contains audio?  What is the source file?  What should my so

Bonjour à toutes et à tous, je me permets de vous solliciter car je cherche à faire un rendu sur adobe premiere pro cc qui soit en hd, léger et surtout rapide à exécuter car les rendu que je fais sont long à réaliser. Je sais qu'il est possible de le faire plus rapidement mais je ne sais pas qu'elles sont les réglages appropriés. Merci d'avance pour votre aide précieuse.

I am trying to render a 4 second video in media encoder. I'm sending the video to the encoder from after effects. When it starts to render it shows another after effects in the task manager using about 95% of my cup. If I open the media encoder by itself with no other program running it will open the same afterFX.exe with the same cup result. Rendering is taking more than 4 hours and didn't have the problem before. I have an asus laptop with 12 gig of ram, i7 processor, and nvidia GeForce 940mx graphics card.

I would like to encode my 90 minute documentary. I open Media Encoder, I select 'Add Premiere Pro Sequence' from the file menu, I navigate to my Premiere project and open it. And then I have to wait for what seems like (I didn't think to time it) 15 - 20 minutes or more for the project to open in ME. It is a reasonably complex project (again, a 90 minute documentary), but still, that seems like an inordinate amount of time to simply access the sequence I want to encode. Are others having to wait a long time when opening a complex (though still only 47mb) project file?And wouldn't this process be faster and simpler if I could send a sequence to ME from Premiere rather than have to open the entire project in ME and then search for my sequence?MartinAdobe Premiere Pro CC 2017.1.1, Build 11.1.1 (15)Adobe Media Encoder CC 2017.1.2, Build 11.1.2.35OS 10.10.5Blackmagic Intensity Pro 4K, Driver: 10.8.2Early 2009 Nehalem MacPro4,1, 2 X 2.6 GHz Quad-CoreSamsung 850 EVO 1 TB system drive32 GB RAM

We're using AME to automatically render using a watch folder. However, in our testing it can take up to several minutes before AME notices new projects to process in the watch folder. We would like to make AME look for new projects in the watch folder as often as possible - it is imperative we cut this delay down to several seconds. Are we overlooking a hidden setting or config file?

I am trying to encode H.265 vertical movie(widht:2160, height:3840), shot on Android smartphone.But Adobe Media Encoder judge as horizontal movie(widht:3840, height:2160) when input this file from a watch folder.One one hand, H.264 vertical movie (widht:2160, height:3840) is judged truly.I want to encode from vertical movie to horizontal one adding pillar box for displaying a 9x16 movie on a 16x9 display.How can I encode H.265 vertical movie without rotating using watch folders.* DeviceSony Xperia XZ :  Xperia® XZ Official Site - Sony Mobile (United States) * Movie parameterresolution : width 2160, height 3840format : H.265sample-file : MOV_0078.mp4 - Google Drive * Watch folder parameterThanks for any help!Hiroshi.

I'm having problem with AME i dont know the problem occur after i update an app and graphix driver, which is it must be  help to accelerate the rendering time but all of a sudden Its just expand the remaining time. continuesly increasing...I already update my graphix card driver NVIDIA GT730 and the latest AME update but still not work.

Hello,For reasons, listed below but not needed to answer the question, I have to export a ProRes 422 1080i 29.97 file to exactly the same specs in media encoder. Does the 8 bpc vs 16 bpc vs render at maximum bit depth have any effect on the image? We combine our audio mix and Graded master in FCP 7 and export reference quicktimes to episode engine.  The files coming out of Resolve 12.5, even though they match our sequence settings and our export settings, are being re-encoded.  This cause our export time and file size to match a self-contained export.

I am working of vfx from an episode of one of our successful police drama series.We recently moved from Apple ProRes to Avid.mxf. I get pieces (subclips) of the episode to apply fx.For tracking, we use Mocha AE, which unfortunately is not able to import .mxf, so I have to convert to ProRes for tracking purposes. The tracking results are applied to the orignal .mxf's.The problem I encounter is, that when I drop the .mxf clips (which have descriptive names), AME does not copy the filenames in the queue,but it gets a name from deeper in the files, which refers to the 'mother file' of all clips - so the description is lost, and all clips are named more or less the same, (BlahBlah_Montage, Video Mixdown,5.mxf |  BlahBlah_Montage, Video Mixdown,6.mxf etc.)How can I force AME to take the filenames instead, so I can identify which converted clip pairs with the original?Thanks for any help!Jan

Hi,So I upgraded from AME 2015 to 2017 Edition and all the DNxHD options are now missing. They have been replaced with DNxHD SQ/HQ options which are totally useless to us.2017 edition options below, notice 'Codec Settings' are greyed out.2015 editionWe really need access back to these DNxHD options and I can't understand why they have been removed. Can someone at Adobe comment on this and state if they are going to be placed back in? Without these options we are stuck on 2015 edition.We have tried using the SQ/HQ/LB options but they don't work with our Dub workflow.
