Adobe Media Encoder

Hello Forum!  Hoping someone has encountered this issue and knows a tweak.   I have attached video-stills showing examples of the problem. I have recently acquired a 2020 iMac with the 8-Core 3.8ghz i7 "10th Generation" chip and the Radeon 5500XT 8GB Graphics Card.  And I have also tested a 2020 iMac with i9 Chip and Radeon 5700XT 16GB Graphics Card and it had the same issue.  In fact I downgraded to the i7 because of this issue that I was having with the i9 thinking maybe the i9 was somehow the cause. The computer that has been my main workhorse for a couple years is a 2017 iMac with the 4.2Ghz i7 processor and Radeon Pro 580 8GB Graphics Card.  I call it "JP2" and it does NOT have this problem. Only the 2020 iMacs I have tested have this problem and I have tried many different things to attempt to make the problem go away.  By the way both 2020 iMacs encoded footage WAY faster than my maxxed out 2017 iMac.   h264 1080p

Hi there, I feel like this question is a bit unorthodox, so I'll try to explain what I'm after the best I can. In the same way that an Adobe Premiere project can be set up to automatically encode proxies using Media Encoder (on ingest, I mean), and similar to the way that you can have another PC encode proxies using a watch folder, I'm wondering if there is a way to have ONE pc's instance of Premiere Pro queue up the encoding on another machine - I have 10Gb links between these machines, so I am not concerned about network congestion - is there a way to have another computer (Computer B) automatically generate proxies for a project being worked on in Computer A? If this isn't possible, I suppose the next best thing would be to just use a watch folder - but that requires a bit of planning (and you cannot edit within premiere pro until this encode is complete, unlike with the proxies where you can edit while the encode happens in the background). If I'm not being clear, please

Hello. I have a very simple hour plus video that is a speaker talking over slides. I had to edit out the ID of the speaker so I went in and did a little masking. When I exported my video, I ended up with a 727mb file. I decided that was too big (as people will be downloading these files). I've now made about 6 exports each time following advice I find online and tried:Changing the bitrate to Medium adaptiveChanging to Medium (not adaptive)Changing the VBR, 2 pass Target 4.5 - Maxium 6Using YouTube settingsEach time, my file size has gone up, instead of down. My latest attempt gave me a file of over a gig. I MUST be doing something wrong. Also, are there best settings for exporting still images? That info might help. There used to be an optimize stills checkbox but I haven't seen it lately.Thanks for any advice you can offer 

Hi everyone!I'm trying to burn a DVD. The video file I have is MP4. The program I need to use can only work with MPG files. Is there a way to convert an MP4 to an MPG from Media Encoder? The only format I found close was MPG2, but it spirts out a .m2v and .wav file. I need it to be a single .mpg file. Thank you for your help in advance!

Hi there, Media Encoder on my Windows 10 PC is not working anymore. Every time I try to encode H 2.64 it get's stuck at 'reading xmp' and then eventually crashes without a specific error message. When I try to encode the same file on my Macbook Pro there's no problem with ot at all. My windows PC is much more powerful however, so I need it to work there again - as it used before! This problem suddenly occured out of nowhere. Any help is apprechieated...

Hi!I'm facing an issue with Media Encoder. When I try to encode any video from it, and I have the rendered set at (Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)) it doesn't encode anything, it just lags and doesn't start encoding. However, it works just fine when I have it set at (mercury playback engine software only)Any idea what would cause this?Note: I have ME up to date, and the GPU driver is also up to date.My graphics card is Radeon RX 5500 XT.My Processor is Rayzen 5 3600.Thanks in advance.

I use AME fairly often and last week it randomly quite working. AME crashes everytime I try to launch it. I dont know if an update caused this or what. The screen goes black and then an error message appears saying it cannont continue.

Hello,I have created a video sequence with different records, images, music...etc I launch the "export" (Ctrl+M) with Media Encoder 2020, I set my 1080p parameter ... etc, the encoding starts, but after a while (which varies, not always the same) my encoding gets stuck/block at a time and doesn't move anymore (I waited 1h, but no progress). Once I stop the encoding process my Media Encoder Crash software. I tried to change my encoding parameters, I even recreated my whole editing from A to Z. I checked if my computer config was OK for Premiere PRO, it was, but NOT WORKING. Somebody could help me please, I beg you, it annoys me a lot, it's an inconsiderate waste of time.Thanks, if you need more information I can tell you. Bonjour,J'ai créé une séquence vidéo avec différents records, images, musiques...etc je lance l' "exportation" (Ctrl+M) avec Media Encoder 2020, je mets mon paramètre 1080p ... etc, l'encodage se lance, mais au bout d'un certain temps (qui varie, pas tou

I'd like to try out some of the codecs my current version does not support, but would like to be able to go back to what I'm using if it doesn't work out. Will After Effects see both versions and allow to to choose which one I want to use when I export to Media Encoder? Thanks in adcance for your reply.

Hi all,the subject says it all.After start there are no further new issues.Any Ideas?

Everything is great when I watch my full sequence in Premiere. Then I go to export (I have tried both from Premiere itself and Media Encoder), and I buffer through the video, still ALL GOOD, I can see the whole thing. The moment I export (in media encoder you can watch the buffer process as it exports) I can see the clips turn blank, the video is missing. Then when I go to watch it from the file destination, all of my images I have overlayed are showing in the video, the sound works, but the clips are all just blank. The other thing I tried was changing the project RENDERER SETTINGS to 'Mercury Playback Engine Software Only' which fixes the problem of the clips disappearing...BUT...then all of the effects are lost and throughout my exported video, instead of getting my transitions I added on the clips I did it on, I get the red bar across the screen stating I need to use 'Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration' and the video is ruined. SOME PLEASE HELP! I have tried EV

Hello all, I'm new to the Adobe support community however I have an issue. Each time I try and launch AME on my computer, it will fly through the splash screen (with the writing on the screen moving). Once the splash finishes no app opens, and it will close itself in the Task Manager. I have used different versions, not just the latest one, from CC and each has the same issue. Machine specs:Razer Blade 15 BaseWindows 10 Home16GB RAM (2x 8GB Dual Channel)Intel® Core™ i7-10750H 6 Core (2.6GHz/5.0GHz)NVIDIA® GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (6GB GDDR6 VRAM)  I'm at my wits end with it; I can just about crack on with my projects in AfterEffects but everything comes out at 5 million gigabytes and I have to encode it via open source tools which isn't ideal! Any advice would be appreciated!

AME is not working since the last update, the program opens normally but as soon as I start a render the program stops responding and then closes, this error started from the last update of the AMD drivers. I have seen several comments with the same problem but none with a solution.How can it be solved? I have a Ryzen 3600, a RX 5700 video card, and 16GB of RAM

Hi, I always get this information when trying to upload and render from after effects. I updated AE as well as AM to the latest version, I am using O.S. Catalina, Vers. 10.15.5. What could I do? 

Windows 10 Pro. After I upd ated all apps to Version 14.8 yesterday. Trying to export a sequence using the Queue. AME opens, but nothing in the Queue list. I Exported okay from within PremiereWas advised by Adobe Support to revert back to previous version, but it is not working either (ver 14.7 worked fine previously.)

The timeline on my exported file (I exported in Media Encoder) doesn't match the timeline on my After Effect working file. The audio and video are still in sync but there is a specific part of the animation that has to start at 27 seconds and in the export it starts almost at the 28 second mark. I have tried everything! It's a mix of video/type and graphic elements and even the graphic elements arent on time so it can't be the frame rate of the videos.

Hi all, Hoping someone can help me with an explanation here. I'm trying to export a very large file (it's 9 hours long and the estimate is 42GB) to either of my hard drives which both have 100GB+ of free space, but once I get near the end of the encode my drives become full and the export fails. Settings are pretty standard: h264, 10mbps CBR, aac 320 audio - screengrab attached. I know it's ahuge, unwieldy file but I need it as one file, not broken up into smaller chunks. I make these type of files semi-regularly and I've never had this problem before. Can anyone explain why AME needs 3x or more space to complete this export? Is there a way around it? Thanks

After nesting several sequences in premiere pro, I want to add the nested sequences to an AME watch folder so that my seqences are rendered automatically. How do I get my premiere pro files into an AME watch folder?

I know, many of you already posted how slow media encoder starts up but I just wanted to add this to the community in the hope that adobe will get their act together and come up with a fix.I downgraded to version 14.0 and all is fine now. Must be something they did in the last couple of versions.

Hi everyone. I have been having a crash problem in media encoder for a while. I have a good computer. (processor: Amd ryzen 9 3900x, video card: MSI Radeon RX 5700 Gaming X) what do I have to do? can you help me please ?

I have a video I can't seem to export without some serious green flashes going on the screen after exporting. This is the fifth day I'm having this issue and I'm slowly losing my mind. What I've tried so far: changed premiere pro preferences from memory to performance (and back again cause this didnt help)turned off accelerated h.264 decodingchanged rendered to software only (this solved the problem on an earlier video but not on this one for some reason) - after this i exported a shorter clip from my video and it seemed to work just fine, however, when i tried to export the whole video (which is less than 2 min) the green flashes were back againclosed programs, deleted media encoder and installed againclosed and restarted my computerin between trying to figure this mess out i've been able to export two different videos without any issues, but with this one it just won't work - could it be a project related issue then? When i view the video on premiere pro, no media is missing and it l
