Media Encoder tells me im running low on diskspace, and that i have to free at least 1GB, but i have 80 GB free diskspace on internal harddrive, and 400 GB on my portable where the video-footage is. there are no partitions on my disks. Anyone else have this problem?

I made a few homemade videos while on holiday and edited them with Premiere Pro and After Effects.  I used Media Encoder to to allof the rendering. I used Premier Pro first and rendered that into a Quicktime Movie and them finished it up in After Effects. For Comparison, renvered the final version into both Quicktime and H264. The settings for both Quicktime Renders (After being finished with Premiere Pro and the final item) are the same.  Both used 59.94mps, 1080p, which matched the raw data.  I used the Apple ProRes 422HQ CODEC, which did not allow me to modify the bitrate, so I assume it keeps the original. For the H264 version of the final video, I used the same CODEC, Apple ProRes 422HQ but downgraded the frame rate to 29.97.  I used a 2-pass Bitrate, with the ideal at 10 and the max at 15. The final item is about 8 mins long.  Playing them side-by-side I saw extremely minimal difference.  I paid atttention to the colors and c

Hello,I've tried more than 10 times rendering a particular video from Premiere, and each time the same problem happens: the render stops at random times, from 1/2 way through to 3/4 through. The progress bar just doesn't move anymore. It usually takes a while for Media Encoder to actually stop the rendering, then it gives different reasons and different timeframes for the bug.I've tried exporting with Premiere several times, but same thing. I've already un-installed re-installed Premiere but no difference, currently doing the same with Media Encoder... After having searched on the forum, I tried deleting the particular frame mentionned in the error message, didn't help; also tried leaving it render with absolutely nothing else oppened on my pc, so it had maximum power, didn't help either.Any suggestions?The video is ten minutes long, rendered at rather low quality, should only weigh 28 Mo's.Thanks!

Hey there, So I recently upgraded to the latest version of CC and I am trying to render a project via Media Encoder as a H.264 file and the program is struggling to make the dynamic link to the project. If and when it finally does, the render freezes. I have deleted and customised momory and cache. I've restarted the computer. Checked that all apps were upgraded and the problem still prevails. I did manage to render the composition as an .mov in the native rendering system of After effects, but its not nearly as seemless as using ME. Would love any further assistance. I work on an iMac 2016 model. 32GB memory. Quad Core. Graphics AMD Radeon R9 M395 2 GBThanks!  

HiI'm running PP and AME 22.6.1 on Mac Monterey OS.I'm not able to export with Media Encoder. The queue gets stucked without starting the exporting.    I already tried to uninstall ad re-install PP and AME. I already tried to check privacy privilegs. Thanks for any help.

I've encountered a strange bug. I have captions and an After Effects lower third on two different tracks on a timeline. Using Mac OSX 10.13.4, AME 12.1, Premiere 12.1.If I render out of Premiere, no problems.If I send to AME and try to render, the caption track renders as "Media Offline".If I delete all content such that only the caption and the AE clips exist, the caption track renders as "Media Offline".However, if I delete the AE content (turning off visibility doesn't do it) then the captions will render normally in AME.It doesn't matter where on the timeline the two are; if both the captions and the AE clip exist together in the sequence, the captions will render as "Media Offline" in AME. Very weird.Manual fixes are difficult because I have 50 or so timelines to render.Anyone come across this?

Hi,I use dell ailenware x15 laptop, with i7-12700H / 16GB Ram / 3060ti for laptop / windows 11I'm redering some video made by after effect using media encoder, but only 4 Threads usage near 100%, others average is 10~15%.CUDA accelerate enabled.Why they're not working?How can I use all thread for render?

Hi,for a few days now, every time I export an after effects project in adobe media encoder in H.264 format, the export stops at the very end of the export and doesn't advance any further.I don't understand why. It's a very simple video, in this case a video of barely 20 seconds and very little power. In the attachment, the export was blocked like that for 2 hours Would you have a solution?Thanks a lot.

When I add my project from After Effects to Media encoder, Media encoder opens but does not show my project in Media encoder queue and when I add my project manualy by hitting + , it asks me about the compositin file and after that it renders the project without the footage videos! 

When I send projects from After Effects into Media Encoder they usually render quite quickly, in a few hours at most.For some reason, videos over 20 minutes are taking over 40 hours to render. This didn't used to happen.Why is this happening?

Hello! I am trying to combine two Zoom meeting recording clips together.Clip 1 is about 40MB (1280x742, 25fps, 312kbps bitrate, 12min42sec) h.264 / mp4Clip 2 is about 150 MB (1440x812, 25fps, 546kbps bitrate, 30min10sec) h.264 / mp4I am having trouble when I create a sequence in Premiere with the same settings as the first file that is just a combination of both clips. When I render out the final file is a huge 950MB. Final Clip: is about 950MB (1280x742, 25fpx, 2797kbps bitrate, 42min26sec) I am trying to encode the clip with the same settings but at 500 kbps bitrate, but for whatever reason media encoder seems to be ignoring me and going with 2797kbps bitrate.  Do you know what the best settings are to encode this video so it is a more reasonable size?Why do you think it would be basically ignore my wish to do a 1 pass encode at 500 kbps?Is there a bitrate lower limit for the profile and level or resolution?What are better settings to use?Most of the foo

Hello,In anticipation of difficulties in supplying companies with electricity during the winter in France, I would like to program Adobe Media Encoder so that exports are activated at night. Thus the power consumption will be lower.In the preferences, I'm stuck at 120 minutes. It's too short compared to my working hours. I would have liked 360 minutes to be sure it was at least 10 p.m. I can't place my orders at 8 p.m.So I'm looking for a trick, a script or a Windows command that would automate the automatic start of the queue at a specific time.I think this option could interest many people because when the media is not urgent, it is absurd to encode at the same time as one works on other projects and thus use the resources (and the electrical consumption) whereas the encodings can be spread over time over a calmer period (at night).Thank you for your help,Nina, video editor for television.

Since updateng from 2020 to 2021 our h264 exports have had audio issues in the quicktime player. It will play in the beginning but will go out of sync over time. Skipping forward in a video either stops the audio or throws it completely out of sync. We have tried a whole range of export settings for both the audio and video, turned off hardware accelaration, exported directly from premiere but nothing seems to effect the issue. Videos play fine in other players and videos we exported prior to updating play fine in quicktime. 

Help!! All ouputted files from AME, Premiere and After Effects freeze for the final 3-4 seconds. To be clear, they render fine but the outputed file is the problem. I've updated to the most recent updates for all apps but it's still not working. Any help would be appriecated

in workspace, instead of changing the export preset for each file one by one manually, how do I change it once across all files or apply a default to all files? I want to use a custom preset I saved on all files that I drag in to export

Desde que atualizei o Media Encoder para a versão 22.0, não consigo renderizar mais nada. Fica nessa tela ai e não sai disso! Alguém com o mesmo problema?

I have a lot of sequences, some 1x1, some 4x5 and some 9x16.For some reason, when queueing all of them to media encoder by selecting the sequences in the project panel and going export media it looks like it doesn't export it properly.Step 1:Step 2, clicking "match source":Previews are fine:(4x5)(1x1)I suspect there's something wrong with metadata.. because the files don't show a thumbnail on macos.And using Switch to view these files metadata:1x1 reads as 9x16, which was the last one that I was able to export succesfully after closing media encoder and premiereThe 4x5 does the same.There's something going on, because after a Media Encoder restart I can export fine one non 16x9 aspect ratio. Then the other queued exports get the same resolution as the one that was first exported successfully.Premiere v 22.6.2 build 2Media encoder 22.6 build 65Mac Air M1 OSX 12.5

Hi I've been having this problems since both apps have updated recently I can't seem to render my After Effect project on Media encoder, when I try to Export-Add to Adobe Media Encoder the App will open but not queue... As there is no way to export a low res version directly on AE how I can I fix this bug?

Hey i have a problem with exportation ME with code erreur  -1609629695How i can fixe that please  Thanks

Hi, We've developed the AME panel take the encoding job from our desktop app(Mac/Windows) and process it as @Bruce Bullis advised last year.It's really helpful.We would like to thank Dan too. Unfortunately, Our panel has two problems sometimes(one is major, and another is minor).Firstly, under the situation like below output's audio mapping doesn't work correctly. Let me explain the situation the problem occurs. versions:# AME 15.4.1(build 5) inputs: #video1 (XD4C.MXF)XDCAM HD422 MXF, 4 x mono audio #video2 (XD8C.MXF)XDCAM HD422 MXF, 8 x mono audio presets(The forum can't accept .epr files, so they're attacted as .docx):#preset1 (Apple ProRes 422 LT_4CH.epr)for 4 x mono audio input(#video1)#preset2 (Apple ProRes 422 LT_8CH.epr)for 8 x mono audio input(#video2) the situation :1. Our desktop app sends #video1/#preset1 info to the panel  and the panel runs the code below    csLib.evalScript(`app.getFrontend().addFileToB

Has anyone seen a bad white balance on export in Media Encoder when Premiere Pro exports colors just fine? I've looked at all export settings and I can't figure it out.

I'm using a 16-inch 2019 Macbook Pro on its highest specs, running on Catalina and I have just updated AE and ME to the 2022 version. However, ever since I updated, Media Encoder just does NOT want to work. I have a project due TODAY and every time I try to render it gets stuck on "Connecting to Project":  This has been going on for 30 minutes. Every time I try to close the app and reopen it again, the project won't export, then I try to do the queue in AME from AE, but it gets stuck again. WHAT is going on? My career literally depends on this and now its stuck and I have no workaround. GET. IT. FIXED. ADOBE. Your software are incredibly NOT inexpensive so this SHOULD NOT have been a problem. Smh.

So  I tried to export something using RG Trapcode. I wanted to render it in AME, but when it's finished rendering, what's in the video is just saying my RGT is unlicensed. So then, i checked the plug-in in MAXON App. and  it is licensed properly and such. So i tried to just render it straight in AE, and it worked just fine. But it took much more time to render. what's going on?

I have stopped using Media Encoder because of audio issues (among other things). Even after I realized the LUT problem -- when you add LUTs or any effects to premiere or AE: if you don't add them to media encoder, they will not show up in ME unless you add them to those folders, too -- I ALSO had audio issues. The worst offenses were CLIENTS saying the sound wasn't right.For instance, a recent build (recent meaning 2020?) resulted in audio mixes with odd results in ME as opposed to a PREMIERE encode -- audio keyframes and transitions aren't registering. A build directly from Premiere sounds better than a build from ME. I don't know who's in charge of making sure Premiere and Media Encoder want to pork each other like a couple of randy teens, but you better figure out who let themselves go, because this sucks. 

When transcoding from 3840 x 2160 to 3840 x 3840 i get this error.  It won't fill the 1:1 frame but instead it takes the 16:9 format and shrinks it into a 1:1 frame.  I am also seeing this error coming from other companies that submit animation to my team.  So I know this is an issue that multiple teams and people are dealing with.
