While sending files from After Effects to AME (File>Export>Add to AME render queue), the default outputpath for the file is in the actual projectfolder.

 

While sending from Premiere, the defoult path is somewhere from an verry old project.

 

I prefere the way Ae it is doing

Is ther a way to change that?

    yeah, so I have to write one.

     

    hell yeah for the second time today: Haha, just found out you can do folders for exportpresets and the apply the folder to export the file to different formats at once 🙂

    Ok got it, thanks! So yeah, since Ae is using project folders AME by default will export into those folders. Whereas the export from Pr --> AME uses the last location that has been set. Sounds like a feature request to have an optional checkbox to set up the destiantion path from Pr --> AME next to the Pr project

      oh, hell yeah: I just found the "Start Queue ..." and "Increment ..." option which I now love! 😄

       

      but... by specific, I just can choose a path for alle footage. My problem is different. It should save the output nearby TO the project. like in Ae.

      Hello!

      Under AME Preferences / General you can define a default output path to where AME will encode everything
