Adobe Media Encoder

Hi there,Installed the AE 2020 update today. I had to manually move the Optical Flares plugin (Videocopilot) to the new folder (used copy paste). AME presets were gone (reimported them). After rendering the video the OF effects I used weren't visible. The workaround: rendering in AE through the Render queue. Is this a known issue, or am I the one making a mistake?Thanks! - Remon

Please Adobe, it's about time to fix the Ambisonic Export with 4 Channels!Thanks!

IM kinda screwed, i need to find a way to get my adobe animation exported to a school platform from a chromebook. i tried to look everywhere and it brought me here. ideas?

Hello, I posted this to the Premiere Pro forum a few days ago but realised it's more of a ME issue so I hope it's fine to repost here. I recently updated to Premiere v14.9, AE v17.7 and AME v14.9, I have been unable to get scripts to work properly while exporting using AME. I have CVS scoreboard data fed into a AE project, which updates scores and other information automatically. These comps are then dynamically linked into Premiere Pro where I edit the footage with the graphics. Using (presumably) the directly previous app versions I was able to queue multiple sequences to encode using AME, and all the script fields would have the correct data drawn from the CSV. Since updating, all script fields encode with Unidentified as text in every instance.  I know it isn't a syntax error as 1. it encoded previously and 2. the CSV data works fine when editing and correctly encodes through the PP export dialog. This is my current workaround however it's not at

Hello. i have just installed a new pc with win 11 and premiere 2022, latest versionWhen i try to create proxies media encoder open and gives error..don't even start to crate proxies. I have tried differnt formay buyt no luck.Error say "error in recovering frame X at time xx of file xxxx, replacing frame XWhat's wrong? editI have just find out that if i create proxy from gopro files, it worksSO it seems that issue is with XT3 files, that are 4k, hevc,400mbs

I was hoping the latest update to AME would finally include the option to publish a rendered file directly to a Google Drive account. No joy. I searched for a way to connect to Google Drive using FTP but the only possible solution I could find required Java Runtime Environment. Is there any underground method for doing this that somebody would be willing to share with me? Thanks for reading. - DK

Hey all! I recently got a Macbook upgrade from work and have been setting up my programmes.  When I first used Me I believe i made the mistake of pressing 'Don't allow access' when trying to import files from my desktop, and now i keep receiving errors whenever I try, saying it can't open my files / can't access the source. I've since tried un-installing and re-installing the apps, clearing the settings, and restoring older versions of the programme. None of which have helped. Can anyone please help with this issue? Thanks in advance!

Hello! I am currently trying to create proxies in Premiere. The "Creating proxy jobs" message pops up in Pr and Media Encoder launches as usual, but then nothing else happens. The proxy jobs are not seen in the Media Encoder queue and it's as if nothing happened. I reverted back to v15.4 and got the same result. Not a project-stopper necessarily, but would obviously love to edit with proxies! Any advice is appreciated! Thanks

Dear all I need to compress an MP4 of 700mb to under 150mb for uploading to an MLE.  I have ME and have tried some experiments, all of which look pretty rough.  I have used Handbrake before with superb results.  For this project I can't use handbrake for security reasons.  Does anyone have any advice for setting?  I tried H.264 and for some reason it would not compress. Best wishes  

https://youtu.be/J24ucN2Sqh0 I think it's better to see it with video. I usually encode all of source video before edit for edit on my laptop. However, everytime when I try to encode proxy videos, it goes very slow when I turn on other windows. It doesn't happen when I encode with other option(like encode setting for upload to youtube). Why is it happen? I'm using adobe media encoder version 22.11((build 25) and Proxy option is "H.265 Low Resolution Pryoxy" which is already saved in premiere pro. My PC is using Ryzen theadripper 3970X and MSI Geforce RTX 3090 Gaming X Trio D6X 24GB Trifrozer2, 128GB of Samsung DDR4 PC4-21300 RAM(32GB x 4)

I don't use Media Encoder much, but lately, every time I export a video from Animate, I get this Preset Error when Media Encoder launches. I don't know what source file it's trying to open. After I dismiss the error, my Animate file encodes as expected. 

Is it still possible to download media encoder ver 14.3? I have a Premiere Pro (ver14.3) project that I am working on and want to use Media Encoder to generate some proxy files. Is there a link I could use to download Media Encoder? Please advise... Thanks

Hi, I tried reset computer, reinstalled several times, deleted every single adobe app, files and cloud for a full reset, used different versions of the Media encoder, and still nothing. When I press to start on the creative cloud is simply does not work. For sure there is some sort of bug, but from my side I tried everything I can do, therefore I would like to have some support.Note: this is the 7 day trial version and I was eager to buy the annual subscription, but if this is a normal behaviour I don't think I'll be able to commit.

Hi gang; I will be rendering a project that will require many animations to be compiled using ME. I will be rendering out the frames from a 3D app like 3ds Max, so the output will be in the form of:frame001.pngframe002.pngframe003.png... Each animation will be approx 100 frames. So you can see that I am dealing with a great volume of data. I need to find a way to automate compiling every 100 frame sequence into an MP4 using ME. My first question is: Does ME support file lists? So if I were to create a text file that listed the frames in order such as those listed above (frame001.png, frame002.png, frame100.png), could I then drop the text file into ME and have it encode that sequence of 100 frames into an MP4? Or is there another way to have ME process a batch of frames into an MP4? I need to minimize the number of steps as much as possible so having ME process a batch of frames at a time is the most efficient way to do this.  Any info or su

Hello, I can't seem to find a solution to reduce bitrate of .mov file with alpha channel. The file size right now is ~40mb with 32Mbps bitrate, I need to be able to activate this function to limit bitrate to 1000 Kbps, any ideas?

When a rendering process with Media Encoder stops, the PC always freezes for endless minutes.Tested with different PCs and different configurations.It is much more convenient to terminate the application...

I'm trying to batch convert a series of clips encoded in png with alpha .mov to .mxf with alpha.Whatever I try the alpha isn't there.I'm selecting Apple Prores 4444 with alpha in media encoder and double checking that the settings inside the preset are ok but whatever I do the Alpha is always lost. As I say, the original clips HAVE an alpha channel.Again what was a quick job is not so 😞

Hi, I recently upgraded to windows 11 and Adobe Premiere Pro or Encoder does not run.  I try to uninstall and reinstall from cloud desktop but it's still the issue.  I'm running nvidia 3070Ti video card, I7-8086k cpu@4.0Ghz with 32GB of ram.  System is running from m2 SSD drive.  All my apps are super fast and nothing freezes other then Adobe Premiere/Encoder.  Please advice what to try. Thanks,David

So I recently replaced my laptop with a new M1 Max Macbook Pro, and since then, whenever I render an AE comp with ME with a LUT applied, it downreses the output. Even in the preview window it shows pixelation.  This workflow works perfectly fine still on my iMac (which is where I've now been using for rendering these as a temp solution). Hoping someone else has encountered this and found a solution?  Screen grabs attached (hopefully they're large enough that you can see the difference.)  I'm on a 14" MBP M1 MaxOS: 12.1 MontereyAE: 18.4.1ME: 154.1LUT: Gamma correction LUT for h264 from Adobe but this problem persists with any other lut from the menuIt also doens't seem to matter if I choose hardware or software encoding.   

I have an output format plugin for After Effects to render out image sequences in a file format called VBN, which is the native image format for the Vizrt broadcast graphics system. The plugin works really well in AE and I would like to add this plugin to Media Encoder so I can do file conversions from there. To install in AE it's as simple as copying the .aex file to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CC nnnn\Support Files\Plug-ins\Format and VBN appears in the list of available file formats. I tried to do the same by copying the plugin to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder CC nnnn\Plug-Ins\(AfterEffectsLib)\Format but the VBN doesn't appear in the list in ME. Is it possible to add custom AE output plugins in ME, and if so how do I do it?

Hello everyone, so I ran into some deep trouble that I can't get our of. I have been working on a project in After Effects and the time to render came and my 20 second clip is taking 2 hours to render, this is not normal at all, something is completly wrong with something that I can't debug.  My PC:CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3950xRAM: 64GBGPU: Nvidia 2080 Super I am in deep need of help here, many thanks!

When I export an H264 out of Premiere, or convert a file to H264 using Media Encoder, I see that the audio ends up about 1/3 frame out of sync. It's a bit troubling because we use Media Encoder and Premiere for professional work. I ran into this when I sent a Sound Editor an H264 picture reference from Premiere. He complained that the 2-pop was slightly out of sync – making it an inaccurate reference. Maybe it has to do with the fact that H264 in Premiere and Media Encoder only offers AAC audio, not Linear PCM? Here's the 2-pop for the Leader built into Premiere. It's a bit odd that it's a pyramid shape instead of a rectangle. When it's brought into another software that shows waveforms differently (ex. Avid, below), it's a bit unclear exactly where the 2-pop is supposed to start.When I bring a Premiere exported or Media Encoder converted H264 into Avid, the 2-pop is about 1/3 frame off.Can Adobe add Linear PCM audio as an option for H264? Maybe that will fix this? It'd

I've uninstalled and reinstalled ME attempting to remedy this. It won't get past the RGSGrowbounds plugin load. Initially ME would not initiate from AE or directly from apps folder.  It was working fine a few days ago.

Hello friends, I am facing a problem in making proxy files, as the progress moves up to 40% or 60%, and then the progress stops without moving, knowing that I can move in the program and there is no other defect other than that the progress does not move at all
