Adobe Media Encoder

I just got my first real editing workstation. Not Lucas worthy but handles everything I throw at it with smooth playback, even with multiple presets, green screen, etc. The problem is with Media Encoder, which I don't see a sub-forum for. Anyway, what happens is, I will start encoding with no problem, but as soon as I change focus to another window, like back to Premiere Pro, or a browser, or my email program, Media Encoder fails. If I leave it alone, it encodes to the end, but if I switch to another program, even if there are only 2 seconds left to encode, it fails.I never had this problem with my previous PC, an i5 core with 12 gig of RAM and an Intel 3D Graphics card. My new PC is a Dell 8920 with an i7 7700 core, 32 gigs of RAM and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050ti graphics card. Everything else screams on this PC except Media Encoder, and even that works perfectly sometimes, but this fail thing happens way too often. I can encode using Premiere Pro but that kind of foils the whole purp

hello,please I have some problem with media encoder when I transcoding  xdcam .mov to mxf op1

When I'm using After effects and trying to render with Encoder, cpu usage is only going up to 20-30%. (Before when I used Encoder CC 2017 everything was good, and CPU usage was 100%)Video settings:1080p, 30fps, H.264, length~5minSpecs: intel i7-4720HQ, 16gt ram, gtx960m, windows 10

Hi all, I'm sorry if I've missed a previous thread on this topic, but I've thoroughly Googled and I haven't found an answer.Is it possible to set up a watch folder where I can drag and drop footage to automatically re-encode, including burning in a number of effects?For example, I have a project coming up where a large amount of clips will all require turning black and white, with the same grade, and the same audio mastering.I've seen an adobe tutorial referring to the use of dynamically linked adobe projects, but the idea of opening a stock AE project fifty times, inserting one piece of footage, then saving it out, doesn't sound like it offers any kind of time saving benefits.I hope my query makes sense, thanks very much in advance.Just as a note: I have no concerns over this order of workflow, and I understand that it's destructive in nature. If it's possible, the time benefits will be very, very valuable.

I have a series of short (~1 minute) flat 2D motion graphics projects.  My workflow is usually an effortless compose in AE, then send off to AME for H264 render into .mp4 format.   Just recently (as of about 2 days ago), I've started having unexplained fails in exports.  AME begins the timeline, gets anywhere from :10 seconds to :40 seconds finished with that timeline, then aborts the export.  No warning, no error code.   It's not doing it all of the time, and I really can't see a distinguishable difference between the files it will and won't render.   I don't see any pattern so far to when it will or won't fail (except that it seems to be more often on the projects with shortest deadlines!) My animations are all flat 2D, so there's no conflicts with ray tracing or other playback engines.  There are no processor-heavy effects, motion blurs, or other intensive layering.  I have minimal nested layers, pre-comps are all neatly trimmed

Why Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder on cloud multistream website Restream did stopped working i'm using Samsung R410 Plus and the OS Microsoft Windows 7 Service Pack who they not fixed this take a look.

Good afternoon,Thank you for taking the time to ponder a quick issue..I am very new to  AE/AME, but I've put together a 5-second sequence that I can export to various formats successfully, including mp4 and webm.However, I see a noticeable drop in quality when I upload the webm file to Gfycat. Apparently for best results that needs to be uploaded with VP8 (among other things), but after some troubleshooting I finally narrowed down the problem in AME to that setting: The render freezes 12-15 seconds into the process, and the CPU maxes out indefinitely and the program hangs. No problem if I use VP9.1) What settings could be related to this problem? I've already restarted both programs. All current versions of CC.2) Is there a more direct way to get a high quality GIF without having to upload a webm to Gyfcat? When I try to create one directly I get color banding even with the highest settings. My web builder doesn't allow me to embed webm.I can add more information as needed.Thank y

Hi,I am trying to export a very large project, 7 hours of footage, minimal edits (title cards and clip transitions). AME takes 6-7 hours to export, gets to 0:00 time left, but doesn't finish, just sits there. In the folder there are the temporary files, the .acc and .m4v (? i forget the name of that one). On one attempt there was an additional mp4 file, but it wouldn't open and was 0 bytes in size.Any suggestions to fix this problem?Is my project just way to big?Should I use different settings?Let me know, thanks!Here are my specs:705 GB Free Space out of 1TBPreviously I tried these setting in AME:Currently I am trying to export on these settings:(note the difference in file size! 9.5 GB vs 49.3 GB^^ though the export takes almost as long..)

I am trying to encode a VOB file which is usually very simple but this time I am getting vertical picture lines in the output window. Doesn't seem to matter what codec I use it keeps spitting out a vertical line picture. Source says it's 10240x480(0.0625)

I have just finished exporting a film from davinci to prores 422 and am trying to convert it down to a mp4 file to upload for others to review online. But for some reason, when I drag it into media encoder, set the setting, and press the start button, the queue appears to start (the start button is replaced with a pause, and the bottom preview screen appears) but nothing happens past that and it just sits there. When I try to pause it and delete the item, it won't allow and I have to force quit the app. Am I missing some compatibility issue between encoder and davinci or with encoder and mov files?

I see this question was asked a year ago and nobody has answered it. I have the latest 2017 version of both PP and ME. I hit "export" within PP. ME opens---and nothing happens. The video I try to export never shows up in queue. I'll be live chatting & calling soon if you don't give us a solution, Adobe.

I'm looking to get these specs created so i can use it on our playout server but I can't figure out how to create the present. Any suggestions?

In After Effects, there's an option to select 32bit rendering. Is the same option available in AME? I tried using the "Render at maximum depth" option, but it doesn't seem to affect the result. Any ideas?Cheers

Hi!I have a problem that I've never experienced.Exporting mxf files from Premiere CC 2015.4 using Encoder 2015.4, the software export the files and show the notice:Avvertenza encoder: V022:vbv_delay underflow!What does it means? It's a problem that I can solve?I've never had a similar problem.thank you in advance!Giovanni

As said in the title:Should I enable Render at Maximum Quality for uploading to youtube in 4k? (h264)I read it's mostly usefull when scalling down video?How about scaling up? (upscaling from HD or zooming in)It raised the encoding time, but will it provide a better result? Or perhaps worse due to compression?

IGood Morning,I am very new to Media Encoder, so admit I may be wrong, but I cannot it seems put an MP$ file into ME and render OGG or WebM videos for use on a client's website.   This is somewhat surprising as Adobe can be proud of their Dreamweaver/Muse apps, thus encouraging us to use them to design and develop good websites.   What do other ME users do to get around this dilemma.   I have seen some on-line converter services but need some advise on the good ones.   By the way I am a Mac user.    From my experience in other forums, I expect some great responses from fine people as usual

So, I tried to be sneaky and install the ProRes Media Encoder presets on my Windows 10 machine. Obviously they don't work. So now I've been trying to delete them from Media Encoder and.... I can't! It won't let me!So basically, I have a giant list of presets that aren't even usable, and I can't figure out a way to delete them. When I right-click on them, the "Delete" and "Reveal Preset File" buttons are both grayed out. I've searched the forums, and I found that someone else had a similar issue and was able to find their presets at: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\AME\6.0\Presets  and then delete them manually. However, for me, I'm not finding any of my presets there. (And I'm on CC 2017, which means it'd be version 11.0, right? I'm not even seeing an 11.0 folder at all. Just the 6.0 folder because I have CS6 installed as well).Any ideas for how I can remove these presets? I realize I was dumb to even try the presets in the first place, haha. But a man can dream abo

I'm trying to import an image sequence which is not numbered sequentially in its filenames, so I am trying to import with the option "force alphabetical" (or however it is called in English – I'm using a different language).AME (11.1.0.170) only imports the first frame as a still.AE (14.2.0.198), on the other hand, imports the same sequence as expected.Anything I am missing in AME?Thanks!

I have searched for an answer but can't find one.Why do some of my custom presets have the CC symbol next to them?I don't have syncing turned on so nothing should be going to the cloud.Thanks in advance.

I work for a small cable TV company.  We insert advertising on national networks (USA, ESPN, etc).  We've had customers call in complaining that some of our commercials are much louder than the network programming.  We receive video files from advertisers and then encode them to put them on our system.  Using Adobe Encoder, I see that there are several audio settings when exporting video.  I am not familiar with all the settings.  Is there a standard I should be using to normalize anything being exported?

AME is crashing while I am encoding a aerial 4k video to be published on vimo. I have tried numerous times getting a 2 minute with a music audio sound track with it to get encoded for vimo. It does not always crash at the same spot. I have AME 2017.1.2 with the following computer specs:AMD Ryzen chip64 gb RamWindows 7 64 bitNvidia 1080 graphics card1TB samsung ssdIf anyone can shed some light on this I would appreciate it.Thanks in advanceRchjr

Tried a large multitude of things that google told me to do.

I have an audio files that has a .WPL extension and would like to convert it to mp3 and AME doesn't recognize it. I'm surprised that AME doesn't broaden their variety of encodable files.

Here's the problem:I'm trying to meet a spec. for a client in which they have specified an H.264 with NO frame reordering and 44.1 kHz/320 Kbps AAC audio.  I have attempted this using two methods: 1. setting up a profile within a .mov container, and 2. as a .mp4.  My issues/questions are as follows:1.  When setting up a profile in a .mov container, I am able to turn frame reordering off, but when I set my audio to AAC 44.1 kHz, the option to encode with a Bit Rate of 320 Kbps is not an option!  It just defaults to 128 Kbps.  This would be rejectable as a spec option.  Is there some way I can up the Bit Rate to 320 Kbps?2.  When setting up a profile as a .mp4, turning off frame reordering is NOT an option.  I'm assuming it defaults to allow frame reordering, but is there any way I can turn it off?  DOES it in fact automatically utilize frame reordering?  If not, this would be rejectable as a spec option.Thanks for any clarification!-Thom

There are probably other ways to solve this problem, and I am very open to suggestions on it. I'll describe what I'm trying to do ...Presently, I'm creating a bunch of "how to" videos. On one computer, I am capturing the screen at 4K. On a second computer, I am capturing a webcam and audio of what is happening.There are many tools that allow recording like this for YouTube or Twitch. I have looked at several of them, but the end result seems to always be a "mixed" stream of encoded video. I don't want the webcam overlay all the time, and maybe I want to change it in post-production. So, this requires two separate recordings.It seems to me that a single encoder could record two separate video streams to an MP4 (or even MKV container if necessary). Then I would have my audio and two video streams in sync. As it stands, when I pull them into After Effects, the videos and audio are wildly out of sync. I compensate for this by using about 45 seconds of video at a time - before the audio get
