Adobe Media Encoder

Dear Adobe Development Team, I hope this message finds you well. I would like to offer a suggestion regarding the export process in Adobe Premiere, specifically related to the behavior of the progress bar. Currently, after the progress bar reaches 100%, there is still a noticeable delay while the software finishes the final steps, such as writing the file and optimizing the "moov atom" for MP4 files. This can be misleading, as users often assume the export is complete once the bar reaches 100%, only to realize that there is still more processing to be done. To improve the user experience and provide more accurate feedback, I propose adjusting how the progress bar operates. Specifically, it would be beneficial if the bar only reaches 100% when all stages of the export process are fully completed, including the finalization of the file and metadata writing. I've included a pseudocode example below to illustrate how this could be implemented: // Function to track export pro

Media Encoder lets us choose from a list of frame rates for our exports, but a specific frame rate can't be entered. I've seen forum responses here over the years that say it simply isn't an option, so I'm requesting it as a feature. I'm converting a 24fps animated sequence to a higher frame rate, so I chose 48 (doubling the original 24 will lead to much less work manually re-interpolating keyframes) but it looks like I'll have to export the final show at 50fps and hope there aren't artifacts or in-between keyframe issues. In the live entertainment and projection design world, non-standard frame rate options would be valuable. Exporting from within After Effects does allow any frame rate to be entered, but that's not an option because it mysteriously locks out the entire program while exporting. Thanks.

this is hardly a new idea as I can see threads discusssing this going back years on Adobe's forums, but those threads are locked and closed, and the problem hasn't been solved so I'm here to ask again: I need media encoder to send me a text or an email when it's done so I can have a life please. Get it done.

For videos with a transparent background, you can easily export small, kb-sized WebM videos for Chrome and Firefox browsers. Unfortunately, Safari does not support transparent WebM videos and requires the MOV format in the H.265 HEVC codec. Media Encoder cannot export this format, and the only workaround I know is to use Apple Compressor software.Ideally, it would be more streamlined if everything could be handled in Media Encoder. Is there any planned update to support this?

Hiya - be great if ME watch folders/set them up to be able trim 10secs off the front or back end of a file.  Sorry if this has been discussed beforeBe good to hear everyoneones thoughtsCheers

can you setup watch folders to trim 10secs off the front and back end of a file thanks

I'm making an animated GIF and I can't even control the file size.I speak on behalf of most customers of Adobe Media Encoder when I say we want control over how video formats are encoded. You pitch AME to be a professional tool, with more features than your free competitors, yet I can't even see an estimate of the file size when converting to an animated gif, let alone change the compression ratio.If you want to catch up with 2023, take a look at open source freeware 'Screen 2 gif' which really makes me wonder why I pay for AME. It's a very different app, but more reliable and does the job it set out to do much better. I can control so much more HOW it encodes - which at the end of the day, is the ONE job AME has. I need to create a gif for Twitter, and limit is 15mb. AME gives me literally no option to make my very short, simple, low res, minimal colours gif a smaller size. Literally zero control over compression. Please just speak to us about how we want to convert videos a

When encoding anything that's not 16:9, the Output Preview shows the preview in a 16:9 box with a misleading mid-grey background. The preview should only show the video, without any added background. From this screenshot, do you think the encode is in fact a 16:9 frame size, with a grey background as part of the video, or a 4:5 frame size, with a grey background that's not really there? There's no way of knowing!The grey background should never be there if it's not part of the encoded video; it should look like this (The video I'm exporting is in fact 4:5. My mocked-up screenshot here shows what it should look like in the output preview):  

Hi.Through Media Encoder, I am able to export hundreds of videos "automatically." Nice. I would never be able to keep up with a fully manual process.BUT - I need the ability to replace the audio track with our standard track we use on fully produced pieces.We have a consistent video length and use the same audio track every time. I just need to replace the audio track with natural sound with our produced "Radio Spot" track. Our track is :30, the video can run long.  The option of using a longer audio track that would automatically duck down at the end of the video track of unknown length would be awesome as well.  Obviously, I can do this manually with Premiere, but I really need Media Encoder.

Since exporting a video sometimes takes a long time I don't always have the time to wait for it to finish. Suddenly I have a meeting, forget the ongoing export, close the laptop, and the whole export fails. I have to start all over again.  Would it be possible for the enocoder to recognize when the laptop lid closes and pause the export?  Thanks,ThomasMacbook Pro user

Sometimes a source video has 48.000 hz audio.   Exporting to MP3 from Media Encoder gives some options (like changing the kbps say from 256 to 128) but not to change the sample rate, these are not the same thing.   The resulting MP3 ends up with whatever sample rate the source had, this is fine but it gives compatibility issues with some applications like Adobe Animate which do not accept 48.000 hz audio. Web content in many instances is also limited to 44.100 hz max.   Either let us choose the sample rate ourselves or cap it to 44.100 hz for this specific format.

I would like to do the aaf-exports also via Media-Encoder! Even it is a seperate menu in premiere pro it would be comfortable to delegate the export to media-encoder and continue to work in premiere pro.The same for xml-export although it isn't so time loosing as an aaf-export.

Media Encoder needs to add an h.625 encoding option for 422 10 bit. It's available in Davinci Resolve, shutter encoder, and handbrake - can't understand why it's not available with Adobe.  I use HEVC 422 10 as an archival render setting for projects where I need to preserve a compressed copy of the project files that are still usable without being so large. HEVC is perfect for that but Media encoder doesn't support Main 10 422 encoding. The current work flow options I have are shutter encoder - which is extremely slow - or Davinci - which is tedious.  I'm sure I'm not the only one who would benefit from this update as I've seen several posts asking similar questions with no resolution other that to refer to the other platforms that do it.   Media Encoder is missing an opportunity to fill a gap here. 

I'd love a publish option in Media Encoder that would copy the output file to an arbitrary location in the filesystem. Essentially, I'd like to output the file on one drive, an then automatically copy it to another folder on another drive when the output is complete. Cheers!

I would love to see an option that allowed you to drop files onto an ingest preset and be prompted for the location that the files will be encoded too.

In Adobe Media Encoder, would it be possible to implement that when you press ESC, and before stopping the render, a confirmation message appears asking if you really want to stop it?

Hi,I waited a long time and was lazy to write this, believing that this feature would appear soon. If I have a file and I just want to replace the sound in it without opening Adobe Premiere, then I don't have that option right now. I ask you to add this in new versions along with the function to copy any track without transcoding, as I wrote earlier. So far, I have to use a lot of additional tools to do the work that could be done in one program.Thank you

I want to use Partial Disclosure in Media Encoder which he has got in Vimeo but this feature is not under the presets of Adobe Media Encoder    

I was just reading aobut the FFV1/MKV codec, now considered by the Library of Congress as one of its preferred archival formats.  Any chance of seeing that as an export/import codec in the near future?

Dear Adobe, Could you enhance Media Encoder not to stop the process or slow down the process even it's close the shell of MacBook Pro? When I close the shell(display panel), It seems to be slow down the process or stop the process. But I expect that it will process Exporting footage as a specified video format. That's common background process approach.If there is no API available for the under shell closing from Apple Inc, Could you kindly ask Apple to develop the API. I think there is the API to support my idea not to stop the process or slow down the process. Thank you so much. Best regards,

Hi! I'm an animator who frequently uses Adobe Animate and I've been trying to implement videos to animate over and/or manipulate . There's one major issue though... Adobe Animate supports .mov, .mp4, and .flv video formats but only properly displays .flv files when exporting the Aniamte document into a .swf file. Media Encoder used to support the .flv format but in recent additions removed it entirely. The only other way to implement videos in Animate is to export the video as a PNG sequence, but that can bloat your file size like crazy. Not to mention copy and pasting png sequences from one file to another just breaks the files even more. Additionally, various Adobe written posts and tutorials tell me to use Media Encoder to convert files into .flv that were updated recently. This is clearly incorrect as you can no longer export anything into an .flv format. I have 2 solutions; 1. Add support for FLVs back into Adobe Media Encoder2. Allow MP4s and MOVs to display o

I would love to overlay an animated version of our still title overlay to our videos - to add a little more oomph. Is there a way to apply a looped animation files, so that I can process a batch of hundreds of videos? I am also interested in replacing the raw audio with a standard audio bed, such as a pre-produced radio spot.Thanks.

Dear Community,  currently AME has a very different setup in terms of app language than other Adobe apps such as Premiere Pro or After Effects. In those apps, the langauage settings in the Creative Cloud Desktop app define, what language the app will be in. However in AME, you can freely switch the app language in the preferences of the app.  If we would change the model AME uses right now towards the same as Premiere Pro / After Effects / Audition etc., will there be blocking issues you'd be facing? What kind of workflows are not possible if the change this?   We would be happy to hear from you regarding this issue!

i uploaded my files to proxy in media encoder and walked away to go shower while they do their thing. When i came back 20 min later a window saying "how likely are you to recommend media encoder to a friend" popped up. they never even proxy'd, the stupid window just sat open... so no im not recommending dick. yall lucky sony is trash

I'd love to have the option to use speech enhace in an audio conversion. I'm talking about the same technology that is behind Adobe Podcast enhancer.
