Adobe Media Encoder

Hi there, Our department recently migrated to the new Macbooks (2021 16in M1 Max). I just installed CC and downloaded After Effects (22.4) and Media Encoder (22.4), but they don't seem to work with each other in this computer. "Add to Media Encoder Queue" opens Media Encoder, but doesn't import the project."Add to Render Queue" then "Queue in AME" sends it to Media Encoder, but I can't edit any settings, and it returns an error when trying to start queue. This is as fresh of an install as it gets. Brand new computer, brand new install of CC, ME, and AE. I didn't have this issue with our old computers, so I'm wondering if it's a Monterey issue, or maybe an M1 compatibility issue? No clue. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi there, using the latest release of redgiant (maxon one). Latest versions of AE and ME 22.4.When I use one of the RedGiant plugins in a comp, it is no longer possible to export to ME.Doesn't matter which Plugin (Shine, Starglow, Tao...) Looking through the forums on this topic, this has been a problem for years! Which is incredible. With each update the fear increases that something might stop working instead of getting better....I would be very grateful for a solution to the problem at last. 

So until yesterday I was very conveniently exporing my mov files directly to webM in media encoder just by chosing webM in the drop down list. Today that option simply disapeared. What's the solution?Thans

Hello,I've noticed that exports done through Media Encoder has a much worse results, quality wise, than exporting the same thing with the exact same setting directly through Premiere. I started noticing this earlier this year especially looking at texts and still images (like logos) included in the videos. So I opened up a project from last year wich had a perfect image after exporting through Media Encoder and made a new export with the same settings, and the quality dropped. I then made another export of the same project in Premiere directly and the quality jumped back up to the origional standard. Like I said it is most visable in text and still images so to give you an example I imported a jpg in a 4k timeline and then exported it as a normal 1080p h264 clip, 35mbit/s VBR 2 pass export, once in premiere and once without changing any settings in Media Encoder. Hopefully you can se the difference in the image below:   The actuall video looks ok on the Media Encode

Hello, I'm having problems with media encoder, I currently have a composition with 1200x675 dimensions set but when I export it using ME it changes to 1200x674 and I can't manually change it to 675 even if I have unchecked the boxes. It goes back to 674 when I hit enter. But it renders correctly if I try 1200x676. I hope someone can help me  

The only way I can get ME to export sound from an AE comp is to first render it out w/sound as Lossless. Re-import that back into AE, and then render that files in ME.Frustrating.  

I have an issue with AME version 22.4 on Mac. I tested on my Macbook Pro and my iMac.I click "Create Proxies" in PPr - AME starts. Then I stopped rendering "Reset Status". And now my problem "Interpret Footage" is greyed out. I need this for the slow motion footage proxy workflow.

Hello, first time posting so I'll try my best... I've got a series of lectures all with a AE mogrt at the front saying Lecture 1, 2, 3...  I made a mogrt template in AE with the base animation saying "Lecture 1".  Importing and exporting from PrPro is not a problem (Image 1); I can use the Essential Graphics panel to change the lecture numbers.  But since I have 30+ of these, I figured I should do it using AME instead.  But when I go to export in AME, all of the lectures have the "Lecture 1" text (Image 2). I read similar threads with AME and mogrts discussing a "Import Sequences Natively" option in AME, but this is greyed out for me (Image 3). Also, this might be related, but the thumbnail image of the .morgt as it appears in the PrPro timeline reflects the orginial .mogrt export which read as "Lecture 1" (Image 4).  But the program and essential graphics panel displays them correctly...?  So its almost like a glitch that is ignored in PrPr

Bom, depois da atualização mais recente 22.4, não tenho conseguido mais exportar vídeos pelo media encoder, já fiz limpeza de disco, de cache e tudo mais, de ambos os programas, já desinstalei e instalei, e continua não aparecendo absolutamente nada no Media Encoder quando clico para "Adicionar a fila do Media Encoder". Meus trabalhos estão todos atrasados agora, porque não consigo exportar mais 1 vídeo sequer...

Desde la última actualización de Adobe Media Encoder v22.4 me es imposible exportar a mp4 directo desde After Effects, siempre me sale error... tengo que exportar a .mov de AE  y ese .mov a mp4 en Encoder. Es la única forma que me deja hacerlo.

Hi,I'm switching over from Episode Pro for my compression/encoding needs and was hoping a function we used all the time is possible in Media Encoder.We encode our videos to multiple formats for the various demands of our clients, and a couple of them require 2 seconds of black before the video starts. In Episode I had a preset with the 2 seconds added so I could make all my encodings in one pass. I added the master, then added all the presets I wanted and hit start. I don't see anything in the settings within AME that lead me to think this is possible. I know I can create an additional master with 2 seconds black at the head and then send that to AME but that's an extra step I'd like to skip if possible.Thanks for any advice,Steve GoldbergCC2018

Thanks adobe for ruining my week AGAINI cannot render anything anymore from AE to AME.... WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON.every time i got the faultcode -1609629695 PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD ADOBE STEP UP YOUR GAME AND FIX YOUR SOFWARE FOR ONCE!!!!! EVERY ADOBE UPDATE IS LITTERLY A DOWNGRADE HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE FOR A PAYED SUBSCRIPTION???????

I think I might know what's causing this, but I was hoping someone here might know more about my issue. I start an encode que and then lock my screen. at some point later, it seems AME just closes. I beleive it is related to the monitors being off. Can anyone confirm this thoery or know of a fix? If that is the problem, I'll just turn off my new monitor and leave it open on the old one. If there isn't a better option. All of my exports have this in their respective log files:[2022-05-16_10-12-13][15892][Warn] [general] We are going to deprecate hostInfo access soon. Please use HostInfoController instead.[2022-05-16_10-12-13][15892][Warn] [general] We are going to deprecate hostInfo access soon.

When I am rendering my project through Adobe Media Encoder, it is very fast at the beginning but gradually slows down later on. I opened and checked the output folder. It produces frames very fast during the first 2~3 minutes. Almost 20~30 frames per a minute. However, it makes barely 2~3 frames only in the end. Why is this happening? It doesn't matter which project I render. It happens to all projects. Even though all frames have basically same quality and effects. (My projects are not even complicated or heavy.) I googled it already but it seems like no one has this issue. Does anybody know why it happens and the solution?

Hi, I'm using AME to render my video from After Effects. I used to get the same error code for the renders (-1609629695) all the time, but all of sudden it was working fine for a few renders. And now I'm getting the error again. For different compositions, this has been occuring often, and I couldn't figure out what is causing this error or find any information about this online. I'm using AME CC 2018 version 12.1 / After Effects CC 2018 version 15.1.0Processor Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1505M v5 @ 2.80GHz, 2801 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)Windows Version 10.0.15063 Build 15063Intel HD graphics P530NVIDIA Quadro M1000Mand here's what I get about why my rendering is failing------------------------------------------------------------ - Encoding Time: 00:00:4111/28/2018 04:00:20 PM : Encoding Failed------------------------------------------------------------Export ErrorError compiling movie.Render ErrorRender returned error.Writing with exporter: H.264Writing to file: \\?\C:\Users\

So recently when I sent a project to export from premiere to Media Encoder the exported video file did not match what I edited. For example, I recently worked on a simple photo montage for a client. No transitions, just some simple keyframing. Nothing crazy at all. When I was done I sent it through Media Encoder and in the final export, the images were in a totally different location in the frame. So instead of the photos being in the center, they were located in the lower right area of the screen. BUT if I export it using Premiere there's no issue.  Any ideas what is going on here?

Updated to V.22.4 Media Encoder and have noticed that my export times are excruciatingly slooooooow.... I'm using M1 Macbook Air. What used to take about 20 minutes for a 10-minute video now takes HOURS!!! WHY??????

Hi,I'm a novice, saw many tuto, but no effect... Media encorder takes days to convert my 40 seconds videos (from media effects) and in the end it blocks. I don't know what to do anymore, can you help me?

And just like that, 2 days ao it was working, and today its not. Why? Cannot figure this out. Just an empty workplace, no visualisaion of the clip I sent from Ae for render. Simple file of tops 4sec. Why is that? Drives me mad.Help! 

I've been having some compatibility issues with my computer and After Effects and Media encoder (v22.4 build 53). I have a laptop with an intel i5 1135G7 core and Intel Iris Xe GPU. Other users have reported some issues with this setup (namely, preview area freezes in AE and rendering freezes in ME), but I've found I can mostly resolve them by switching off hardware acceleration in my Adobe programs wherever possible. My issue is that these settings don't all seem to save when I exit M.E. I'm specifically talking about the dropdown menu below the render queue that I've drawn a box around in the following image. I can switch to Mercury Playback Engine Software Only, but the setting reverts back to hardware accel the next time I open the program.Having to toggle this setting every time I open up ME is holding up my mostly script-based workflow. Is there a setting that I've missed somewhere that will keep this dropdown menu from reverting from software only to hardware accel?

I was rendering video after video each week for my YouTube channel. Media encoder was just fine but after a few testings and modifications I made to the video with the latest 2022 update it starts off by rendering a few frames and then suddently stops! No messages. Just stops. When I look through the task manager I can see the "Adobe After Effects" processor not using my CPU to render. It's almost like it wants to stop whenever it wants. I tried everything and I almost punched a hole to my monitor because of this suddent decision the program made.my CPU is an i5-10600K with a GTX 1650 Super. I'm using GPU acceleration when rendering as well.All the plugins I use are RedGiant Trapcode, Saphire, Videocopilot Twitch.

Currently I am using official version of AME CC 2019.when I export my HEVC videos that filmed with GoPro7 with 60FPS 4k, I get test pattern.Weird is, it works perfectly fine on After Effect. It plays with no problem.But when I try to export movie with AME, I get test  pattern.I also set with HEVC(h265)Please help.

Im having a lot of problems with media encoder, it get stuck in the dynamic link, reading XMP or something like that, I have all ready installed and unimstalled everything like 3 times I'm really loosing my head

I don't know what is happening. Everytime I send my clips to Media Encoder, my whole PC will get bogged down and struggle to see the clips sent to encoder. Some times it works, some times it doesn't. Constantly getting the two error codes "GPUSniffer.exe" and "CRlogtransport.exe". Not sure what is going on, I have tried a number of troubleshooting options including, ADobe CC cleaner tool, graphics card driver updates, PC Restarts, Windows Updates, retransferring footage, using a different hard drive and nothing seems to work.

I started the rendering of like a 3-4 minute video, which usually takes less than 30 minutes to render. It's taken over 11 hours and still thinks it has 5 hours to go. On a 3-4 minute AE project video in Media Encoder. WTF is going on!?
