CS6: Encoding failed (Premiere CS6 → Media Encoder)

Hi,

tried to render a video project of Premiere CS6 within Media Encoder (over night) – but it failed: size of created mp4 file (h.264) too small, 2 GB instead of about 10 GB (duration of the full HD video: about 1h) → not playable e.g. in VideoLAN.

However the log file seems to be okay, rendering duration, too:

AMEEncondingLog.txt:

- Genutzte Vorgabe: 50p

- Video: 1920x1080, 50 fps, Progressive

- Audio: AAC, 192 KBit/s, 48 kHz, Stereo

- Bitrate: VBR, 2 Durchgänge, Ziel 32.00 Mbps, Max. 40.00 Mbps

- Zeit für Kodierung: 03:40:50

Maybe the cause of this strange behaviour: too less free disc space? Rendered it on the windows 10 partition (SDD) which contains the cache files, too.

But if this is the cause, why no appropriate error message?

Thanks!
