Adobe Media Encoder

I am hoping to use Media Encoder to run watch folders with the pupose of standardizing all content to MXF or other similar format.   Currently the "Captions" tab on export settings has all options greyed out.  Have tried changing the export preset with no luck.I found an older post about a similar issue and an Adobe employee referenced (Beta) 23.5.0.16 had a fix, but that is no longer available for download.   So far I have tried 25.0 and 23.6.8, same issue on both.  Does anyone have a known good version or tested workflow for this? Thanks!

Just update to 2025 premiere and encoeder, also update plugings (like premiere composer).  When exporting using media encoder, all the esential graphics (graphics templates now) are missing in the final render, this include; Mr. horse premiere composer assets and .mogrt elements.  When I export direct from premiere everyting works.  Mac mini 2023Apple M2 Pro32gb RamOS Sonoma 14.6.1

I am currebtly on Premiere Pro 24.6.1 aand Media Encoder 24.6.1 When I send my project from Premiere Pro to Media Encoder, ME is started as expected showing my project in the input queue. However, once I click on the green button to start the rendering process nothing happens. Any ideas? Any help? P.S.: I was on 24.6.3 with both PP and ME. At least in this configuration MED actually began to render, however stopped in the middle of the process. I thought that going back to 24.6.1 may solve that problem.  

Hey guys,  I've been editing 4K (Sony A7SIII) Footage on my 3rd gen i5 and gtx 1060 3GB. It's not as bad as many of you will think haha. Anyways, today I encountered with the problem I edited videowith simple transitions and few segments where i used 4K assets from Acidbite such as (dust, scratches and 16mm gate overlay). Render was looking fine when system was balanced with around 60% CPU and 20% GPU, when render passed the "difficult" segment it became faster, because other than that whole video is just zoom in and zoom outs with sound effects. so since it became faster after that heavy segment i thought it would finish in hour or so and after some time im seeing this(image provided) this type of segment where there is nothing going on just clips laying around and have little zoom in & outs never had problem before.Does any of you have idea what can i do in this situation?!Premiere pro vers. 23.1.0 (build 86)Encoder vers. 23.0.1 (build 1)CPU - Intel(R) Core(TM

Bonjour, depuis la mise à jour After Effects 22.0 et Média Encoder 22.0 je n'arrive plus à générer le média depuis AE. En effet, AME se connecte bien aux serveurs Adobe (1ère phase) mais tente d'ouvrir le projet en vain (seconde phase) ! Il semble que ce soit l'ajout d'un élément C4D dans le projet qui bloque AME. En effet, le test avec un projet "simple" fonctionne correctement. J'ai réinstallé l'ensemble (AME, AE et Cinema 4d Lite) mais j'ai toujours le même problème. Si j'ouvre AME seul (sans AE), l'ouverture du même projet "charge" une instance d'AE en mémoire (visible dans le gestionnaire de tâches) mais celle-ci ne se "ferme" pas même après l'arrêt d'AME (signe d'une crash app ?) Merci de votre aide. 

Ever since I updated Premiere and Media Encoder, when I send my finished sequences to Media Encoder, for some reason the captions won't export with the video.  They will only export through Premiere.  I have my "Burn subtitles into video" option on and everything.  Help.

Hi, I really have little understanding of this process. But, i have video downloaded that is not recognised in premiere pro. it is vp09, or something. when i am trying to use encoder to give me a usable version with no loss of quality, it creates a black video with perfect audio. i have tried tweaking all sorts of settings to match, but, no cigar. what am i doing wrong? it is a 25fps, 1920x1080p video. not sure if you all need more information? but, i will be studying this whole area further to gain understanding, going forward. 

now what is this. IT IS A 58 SECOND VIDEO, it has been encoding for 17hrs and still isnt done. i have never had this before. the longest i had was 2 hours. i am using a dynabook portege, it has 16 rams and this is only taking up some of it.(around 5k mb memory) I let it go overnight and the estimated time just keeps increasing

Just updated to Premiere and Encoder 2025.  When rendering a video out using Media Encoder, the "2nd" pass never "seems" to complete.  In other words, as you observe the progress of the rendering in the small window (and rendering timeline), visual progression seems to freeze or stop half way through the process.HOWEVER.... in looking at the location where the video was rendering to, the finished video did complete, and looks fine.Is this a BUG?  the normal behavior previously allowed the 2nd rendering pass to be viewed, and the rendering amount of time would constantly update.  I've done several videos, and the issue was same for both.

Is it possible to tell Media Encoder to add a file at the end of the current file being rendered?Basically, I want to render a dozen files, and attach a generic message to the end of each one.I batch process many MANY files and being able to add a generic info message to the end of each Product video would be mighty helpful. BTW - I am also looking for a way to ADD an audio file to a video that has NO audio. Again, I have many MANY video files that have no audio, and I want to add the same audio file to all of them in a batch. Thanks! 

Hello, I am trying to render/export a 18288 x 57 animation for a stadium fascia board but I can not get the size to go past 16384.Is there a way to export this at the correct settings? Is it my computer that the problem?I was shown a file that was an H264/mp4 with the correct settings so it can be done. iMac Pro 2017Radeon Pro Vega 56 8 GB5120 x 2880 DisplayThanks for your help!

I'm trying to convert ProRes 4444 with alpha to a HEVC H265 with Alpha. I'm on an M1 Mac Studio (running Ventura 13.2.1). I've seen people say "hardware encoding" needs to be selected in Media Encoder (23.2.1), but it is not selectable. I've tried this conversion using Premiere and in also Mac finder using "Encode Selected Files"; everything seems to work correctly, but when I test the finished HEVC in AE or Pr, they never have alpha channels. Just black where there should be transparency. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

I am trying to set up a better workflow for importing my camera into Adobe Premiere. They are Sony cameras, and output .mxf files. I have found that importing these directly into Premiere causes a few issues, so thought it may be best to transcode in Media Encoder first to H.264. Source files are 35mbps, so is it safe to assume I could simply set up a custom preset 'Match Source' and settting Target Bitrate as 35mbps?? I also checked 'use Maximum Render Quality' Seems logical to me, but just want to check if there are any potential issues I may have overlooked. Thanks in advance.

I'm having issues in Media Encoder exporting an image sequence. I've seen other forum topics that are related to this but *are not the same*. I do not have a Premiere Pro sequence, this is for a sequence directly added to Encoder by going to "add source" and selecting the first image in the sequence. I've done the following to debug the issue:1) restarted computer2) tried images in a different folder3) cleared ME's cache4) turned off the setting for "import sequences manually". The files are all in the same folder on my C drive. There is nothing else accessing the files at the same time. The system is brand new and extremely powerful, 64gb ram, Intel Ultra9 processor, RTX4070 GPU.

Well, I updated to v25 and now none of our mogrts work when exporting.From Premiere or AME, it seems to hit the graphics file and stops and becomes non-responsive.  No preview displays.  Software only has same issue.  Delete the mogrt and export works fine.  This worked perfectly fine before the update.Absolutely no clue why this failing now.   cleared caches, reinstalled, etc.  Restored system and tried again, same issue.  As an added bonus, when I went to reopen a project after restoring the system, it failed because v25 saved it and all the autosaves under v25.  Now I have to rebuild the project with hours of work invested.  Joy.   W10x64, 14900k, 3080ti, 96gbRam, Gen4M.2 drives throughout.

1. Version of the app Tested in v24.6.1 and in the Beta2. Platform and OS versionTested on Windows 10, MacOS 14 and MacOS 15 (Intel and M1)3. Basic steps to reproduce the problemIn Premiere - import a multi-channel audio fileTested with Polywav 32bit-float 48000 Hz .WAV filesAdd a resource heavy vst/vst3 as a track effect to one channelex. Supertone Clear or Izotope RX Dialogue IsolateSend to Media Encoder and render4. Expected resultAll tracks in sync with the FX applied5. Actual resultThe FX is applied, but the track is delayed - usually by less than a frame's length Hi, I've been running into issues when trying to export sequences that use resource heavy audio plugins. Playback and file export via Premiere Pro are in sync, so this seems to be an isolated issue with AME.  Of course it's possible to solo/export the track as a workaround or to simply render via Premiere - but for batch renders this can become very tedious.  Thanks,Sean

Hello, I was working with Adobe Animate CC 2020 and tried to export an mp4 through media encoder (the only way I can export an mp4 from the app) and it opened AME, but the file never showed up in the queue window as if I'd normally opened AME without exporting anything. This had never happened before, and I didn't install any updates for my computer or the apps themselves since I had last successfully exported an mp4 through AME. I've spent the last couple hours doing everything from updating my computer (a Macbook Pro 2017, currently running on macOS Catalina but as I'm writing this I'm downloading macOS Big Sur to see if it fixes it somehow) to updating AME and Animate to their most recent 2021 versions, messing with and eventually resetting the settings in both (and testing it all throughout to reach the same result, a blank queue), uninstalling and reinstalling both apps, killing dynamiclinkmanager activity (recommended in a seperate article) and everything in between to try and fi

Hi, I have a problem when rendering to mp4. It looks like a bevel or shadow effect and it appears between two colors with high contrast. I've tried with multiple options changed, every time it appears. How can I avoid that effect?

Why? It is completely random and often slows my process down to a halt. MacMini M2 pro chip, 16 gigs of ram. Tons of drive space. 

I am having the worst experience with AME. Its a 16 second video, that I am already 11 minutes into encoding and I'm not even 20% finished with it... On a 16 second video!!! There is no way that AME should ever take this long for a 16 second video. I've also had my software crash twice on me, and Pr isn't doing any better. I'm using a MacBook Pro with the M1 Pro, 16GB Ram, and I'm using version 23.0.1 for AME and 23.0.0 for Pr. Any ideas on how to fix this? I will post a screen shot below... Thanks for the help!
