Adobe Media Encoder

How does it happen that the result between software render and GPU Cuda render has different results in quality and file size?I had to use software renderer for some time because my AE (and the Media Encoder) crashed multiple times after the 2022 update while rendering.  File Size (same sequence):Software: 9mbGPU Cuda: 7mb Quality:Software: GPU Cuda:It's 100% the same file and settings, I rendered the first, reset the queue, changed the name and swapped the renderer.The text is created in 4k in AE inserted as AE sequence into Full HD Premiere squence and exported as Full HD in Media Encoder.

I used Adobe Premiere Pro edit and merge some clips then export with Adobe Media Encoder. But after finish, It only export 4 file separate and dont combine them into 1.

Been working on a medium-sized project. Using AE's built-in renderer to test. Exported PNG sequences have the default filename format: [comp_name]_nnnnn.png where nnnnn is the 5-digit frame number padded with leading zeros. That's great, no problems. Now I want to use AME 2021 (not upgrading until bugs are resolved) to export all the comps in the background while I do other stuff in AE. The resulting filenames by default are: [comp_name]nnn.png where nnn is the 3-digit frame number padded with leading zeros. Umm, what??? For seemingly no logical reason AME drops the "_" between comp name and removes two digits to the frame number. I looked online to see if there is a way to customize the output filename format from either AE or AME but found nothing. I'm hoping one of you knowledgeable experts knows how to do this. Does anybody know if the newer versions have option to customize PNG sequence filenames? Thanks in advance! - DK

Hi! i use macbook pro 2018 BigSur 11.4 and when i try to open adobe media encoder it's show "adobe media encoder has encountered an unexpected error and cannot continue". it's not opening. i use latest updated version 2021 from creative cloud

I used to render fine out of Premiere and AFX, no 3rd application needed. I basically now wait until ME loads to open a dialog box that gives me the exact options as I had before. I used to never touch media encoder, what...does it encode with more gusto or something? It really feels like a giant pile of you know.

my media encorder keeps failing.  this aggervates me so much!! i've tried so many times, after 6 hours this happens everytime. i need help ASAP

Before today I was able to export After Effects compositions through AME, because I export as H264 mp4 (using AE- File-Export-Add to Adobe Media Encoder Queue). Suddenly, any composition I export to AME, does not appear in the AME queue. I reinstalled AME to ensure it is up to date, and my after effects is up to date as well (17.1.1 Build 34)Queue tab in AME remains empty, and if I try double clicking the queue and opening the After Effects project file, it takes me to a blank "Import After Effects Composition" screen with an endless loading bar with the message "Connecting to project..." I am using an iMac (retina 4k, 21.5 inch, 2019)Processor 3.2 GHz 6-core Intel Core i7Memory 32 GB 2667 MHz DDR4Graphics Radeon Pro Vega 20 4 GBMy AME renderer is set to Mercury Playback Engine Software OnlyComputer Firewall is currently turned off 

Title. Need a fix, system worked fine before update. Parallel Encoding is on, tried gpu and software rendering. Tried the + option and got an infinite load.

All of the sudden when i go to render with media encoder it says "After Effects: AEGP Plugin AEDynamicLinkServer: Adobe Media Encoder is not installed. Please download and install it to use this feature. Go to https://creative.adobe.com/apps." when i close that window another pops up and says "After Effects:" AEGP Plugin AEDynamicLinkServer: Failed to connect to Adobe Media Encoder." ive tried several youtube videos with no progress, ive uninstalled and reinstalled media encoder and after effects with no progress. getting desperate at this point and im not going to be spending 30 bucks a month for something i cant even use. everything is up to date, im running Windows 10 & this has been happening for more than a week now.

Hi,  It is been a few weeks that i am having this problem where anything that i try to export from After Effects to Media encounter doesn't work. If I close the app Media Enconder and try to export something from AE it opens but then it get stuck on xmpIf I have it ME open it simple doesn't queue the composition that I export.  Note: All my software are updated, Adobe Premiere seems fine to to export from Media Enconder, i have try to switch the files project to different places and nothing.  Not sure what is happening, but is delaying me significantly my workflow what is not great.  Would like to know if there are any solutions to this problem and if there is people facing the same situations.   Thank you

I wanted to create Proxies in Premiere Pro v.22.0 with the newest version of Media Encoder, but it says everytime that i haven`t installed it (i have). I tried uninstall and everything but nothing works. Does someone know the solution for this?

I have been getting this error when trying to export media.   I'm running versions 22 of premiere pro and media encoder.   It was working a few days ago, but suddenly getting this error.   I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling and rebooting.I have also selected the render to software only. My videos are basic, don't have any effects or cuts in them. What is going on?  

Hey, I've tried uninstalling and re-installing Media Encoder several times but it won't do anything if I try to render anything out of it, it sits at 0% and never even starts it's progress count up. Media Encoder also crashes fairly often now. Premiere and After Effects both render the files just fine on the same computer but I'd like to set up a large batch of dailies instead of having to render every file individually as a proxy from PR. Please help! Thanks!

Eu fiz a composição no after effects normal e fui renderizar no media encoder. Clico pra exportar mas nada aparece na lista de renderização do media encoder. Estou utilizando a versão mais recente do software. Alguem me ajude, urgente 

HI Out thereI need to complete a project edited in Avid and can't get Media Encoder to open since it upgraded to the latest version. Thankfully I havn't renewed it since my annual contract ran out and am on a trial with 3 days left. All was well last week but am now running out of time.Running Windows 10 64 bit if that helps. Many thanks, Geoff Pearson 

So my Media Encoder 22.0 wont open and so does my After Effects 22.0.1Its stuck at the starting process...I already tried reinstalling both

The error occurs in the Creative Cloud app after the official update of Media Encoder.After Effects reports that no encoder is installed. If you drag the project file directly into the encoder, it says After Effects is not installed(5027 :: 12)  

I have to go deeper and analyse all the parameter. But here is what I see, with the exact same project, and a CPU which seems to be used in the same way :the render with my AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X (Desktop) is twice as much longer than with my Core i7-10750H (MSI laptop)... On my desktop with threadripper, I work on an external drive, a Samsung T7, connected in USB-C, a lot of empty places on it... The cash is on the same disk on both I think, it can be the problem maybe... Or something I don't know... Any idea ? Tips ? 

Why do my 1168x720 video screencast gets a little pixelated after exporting it from Media Encoder? I use QuickTime Apple ProRes 422 in order to render without much compression.  However, when I use proxy preset built in Premiere Pro, 1536x790, which is a different aspect ratio, it renders perfectly fine. Here is a screenshot of my video (with original quality):Here is a screenshot of my video (after rendering using Apple ProRes 422):

In media encoder in the publish tab, is there such way when uploading to facebook to use the video filename (or any other metadata) for the facebook title/description?

Is is possible to uplaod straight to a social media platform without encoding first? 

Each time i try to render a video, thuis is the message I get. It simply fails each time.Error completing render.Writing with exporter: H.264Writing to file: \\?\D:\Cove Highlights\Howard 8 yd TD.mp4Writing file type: H264Around timecode: 00:00:00:01 - 00:00:00:16Component: H.264 of type ExporterSelector: 9Error code: 3

Hi dear community! 🙂 When I was adding a project to Media Encoder Render Queue then click to start button, my media encoder stuck at "Connecting To Project" and sometimes I don't get any reaction from the program. Can someone help me about it? I think it may be related to the newly added multi-frame rendering. But just a think 🙂 I need your help. (Sorry for my bad english if you have hard to understand.)

I have strange issue. When exporting After Effects composition through Media Encoder into H.264 format, I set target bitrate VBR to 40Mbps. I even tried all possible combinations and I tried CBR to 50Mbps but final encoded H.264 video clip is always up to 12Mbps. Why?If I export from AE to lossless MOV and import that MOV (as standalone) into Media Encoder, with same settings I get H.264 output at 50Mbps.If I export anything from Premiere through Media Encoder, with same setting I am getting final H.264 with 50Mbps.I have only issue exporting from After Effects through Media Encoder where I cannot get output with higher bitrate than cca. 12Mbps although in Media Encoder it is set to CBR 50Mbps.Please, help... I am using CC 2019. Here are settings from AME and final rendered video properties from After Effects through AME.<a href="https://imgbb.com/"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/RcyTxR3/AME-Settings-2.jpg" alt="AME-Settings-2" border="0" /></a>
