Same issue.  I have a macOS 10.15.7 and did a screenshot with Adobe Support.  They checked my Graphic Card and said it was fine.  My ram is 64GB, which is hardly being used when trying to encode a Video file that is 12 mins.  It's taking over 1 hour to encode via Media Encoder.  And over an hour to Render in After Effects.  

With support we downgraded from the latest versions of After Effect and Media Encoder to versions: 17.0.5 for After Effect and 14.0.4 for Media Encoder to test the performance.  No difference at all.  And then we updated back to the latest versions of the apps, no difference.  

Very disappointed with Adobe's support and product to work with a powerful computer.  I feel like I went back to 1980 trying to encode a small file.

    WOW! I was looking at how the settings should be made in a good PC. I am using 12 cores AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT, 64GB RAM, 1TB M.2 SamsungPRO SSD, Radeon RX5700XT 8GB 

    Media Encoder rendering time: 50min 70GB Op1a 384mbit PAL mxf >> Op1a 50mbit Interlaced takes approximately 63min.

    Hi Dirk,

     

    This does not sound ideal. We'd love to help you troubleshoot this issue and figure out what is causing glitch in AME performance.

     

    • Could you share your system details(OS version, RAM, GPU, CPU, etc)?
    • Which other applications have been affected because of AME?

     

    Looking forward to your response.

     

    Thanks,

    Shivangi
