"Send to Adobe Media Encoder" via Shortcut Ignores In/Out Points in Premiere Pro 2025
Description:
In previous versions of Premiere Pro (such as 2024), using a custom shortcut assigned to the “Send to Adobe Media Encoder” command respected the In and Out points set on the timeline. However, in Premiere Pro 2025, this behavior has changed.
Now, when I use that shortcut, Premiere sends the entire work area to Media Encoder — even if the work area is disabled — and completely ignores the In and Out points. This breaks a key part of my workflow, where I quickly mark In/Out and send just that range to export.
Currently, I’m forced to use the manual export dialog (Ctrl+M) to ensure the In/Out range is respected, which adds unnecessary steps.
Steps to reproduce:
Mark In (I) and Out (O) points on a sequence.
Use a custom shortcut assigned to “Send to Adobe Media Encoder.”
Media Encoder opens with the work area range, ignoring the In/Out points.
Expected behavior:
The export should respect the In/Out points marked in the sequence — as it did in Premiere Pro 2024.
