Was excited to install 2022 version of AME, but it has proved ultimately useless. It constantly loses connection with After Effects. Folks in our department may get 2-3 renders before it stops receiving new renders in the queue. The only way that has worked for me to fix this is a full restart of the system Additionally, even when it does receive new renders, I'd say about 80% of the time, they hang and fail within seconds to the point that AME needs to be "Force Quit" to restart the application. The only "renders" that seem to work with 2022 are converting existing video. I have to render everything in After Effects and then down-convert in AME once I have a rendered file, which pretty much makes AME useless in the end.  I've just uninstalled 2022 and put 15.4 back on my system. Hopefully that works.

Hello, My .MTS files are going out of sync after converting them to H.264 while keeping the same fps. Am I the only one facing this problem and what is the solution for it? Thanks.

I am trying to add AE file to Media Encoder but it doesn't work. I deleted and reinstalled two apps but it still didn't work. Please help me

When exporting extreme horizontal files, for example 9312 (w) x 96 (t), I've noticed that H.264 files are getting tagged with Rec 601 rather than Rec 709.  Even when trying to force Rec 709 using the new color managment features in AME, 601 is still the tag on these files. Any thoughts?  Am I doing something wrong or is this just a bug?

I managed to solve here by clearing the cache in After Effects (see print below).Open After Effects and go to:- EDIT > Preferences > Media & Disk Cache > Clean Database & cache 

And for no reason at all my Dynamic Link Connection has refused to be fixed or work for the past two weeks.  I've talked to a few Adobe Support technicians and everytime the remote access without fail never works so then it boils down to them telling em what to over text.  Everything I've tried does nothing and now my social media pages and content has come to s schreeching halt. So mad and just infuriated at this. 

Fix the Adobe Media Encoder ASAP PLS Already installed the media encorder but ot keep saying not installed THE ERROR NUMBER IS 5027 :: 12

Hi with the new update, the media encoder isn't accepting files from AE to render. I switched back to the old version of ME but then AE doesnt seem to sent files to old version as well? 

After latest update, i can not send projects to be rendered into media encoder, i can render them inside after effects so i know the file is not with errors i just can not open them into encoder. Has anyone had this problem or maybe know how to fix this ?

Works with VBR, 1 pass but switches to Software Encoding on 2 Pass.  Error message says "system hardware does not support hardware acceleration for corrent settings."  Almost sure it worked fine with previous version.  Installed previous version but it can't enciode V 22 Premiere files.Dell Inspiron 5680i7-8700 3192 MHz 6 Cores48 GB RAMNVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB 1280 CUDA Cores 

Media encoder was updated to the new v22 version and now I can't make any render, it doesn't even read the Projects, it stays checked in the blue progress bar. Please solution, I can't make any video!

Hello, from when I upgraded Adobe Media Encoder to 2022 Version, I find many problems to export files directly from After Effects Projects. It doesn't upload the .aep to the Encoder and it doesn't charge any composition from the .aep file.

I export video on adobe animate and it goes straight to media encoder to convert to mp4. it load and everything and then I says failed to export. Ive been using media encoder for a while now and it worked properly without a problem. but now I just can export my animations the way I want to. This is the message I get on adobe animate after I export. 

I've had many errors with exports, nothing seems to be working, it seems like a file is exporting and it says "Reading XMP" but never actually exports. Or I get the rainbow ball and nothing happens at all, Media Encoder just crashes. Media Encoder is an awful program, I've always had issues with it. Really wish this app would be updated because it constantly slows down my workflow. 

Media Encoder 15.4.1 is now available for download from the Creative Cloud desktop application. This release is recommended for all users. This update fixes an issue where the XMP metadata is not written on Apple M1 when exporting AAC Audio. To update the app open the Creative Cloud desktop application and click the Updates tab on the top-left. Find Media Encoder in the list and click Update.

Hi,  I used to use adobe prelude to ingest media to multiple locations without transcoding the media. Because adobe prelude is going away, I've transitioned my workflow to media encoder. Many have suggested that I use premier, but on work projects I will use photo and video and I dont want to ingest photos with premier. I would like a central ingest work flow. Rename my files, add meta data, and copy files to multiple drives and destinations.  Media encoder seems pretty close to doing all of these, but it will only ingest to one destination and give you the option to transcode to another destination. I would like the option to add as many destinations as I want just like prelude gave me the option.  Could any one give me a recommendation on anohter product that already has this capabilty? 

Hi,  I am using adobe media encoder to ingest media. In the past I have imported ARW raw photo files that I took using my Sony a7rii. Not sure why or when it happened, but adobe media encoder will not longer import these files. It oddly says the file format is not supported, even though ARW files are supported and I have imported these in the past.  I've tried to use different SD cards, I've tried copying the files to my desk top and other drives and still no luck.  Also, theres a little filter icon at the top in order to select "File type displayed". By default it seems display "all supported file types". When this is selected I am un able to see the ARW files on my drive. When I toggle this filter to "SonyRaw Format" nothing shows up either. When I toggle to "All Files" the ARW files show up. But I still am unable to ingest them.  Any ideas on what to do? 

I have been trying to get a node working but it seems to not work and is kind of annoying I want to set up a farm and it not even working on one pc is slowing down my progress. I tried everything on this page:Automated rendering and network rendering in After Effects (adobe.com) I cannot get the non-royalty bearing mode to turn on: "RUN AERENDER IN NON-ROYALTY BEARING MODEAfter Effects CS5.5 had to be serialized on render-only machines due to licensing issues. In After Effects CS6 and later, you can now run aerender or use Watch Folder in a non-royalty bearing mode, so serialization not required.To ensure that After Effects is running in non-royalty bearing mode, place a blank file named  ae_render_only_node.txt into the following location:Install After Effects on the render-only machine.Mac locations:/Users/<username>/Documents//Users/Shared/Adobe/Windows locations:C:\Users\<username>\DocumentsC:\Users\Public\Documents\Adobe"

Dear community, I'm facing a huge issue with the Adobe Media Encoder. Everytime I try to render multiple videos from After Effects via the Media Encoder, the first 2 videos get rendered perfectly. But the third video always crashes the programm. It starts encoding but then suddenly stops. When I try to stop the rendering process and confirm in the pop-up windown, the entire programm freezes and I get the rainbow circle. I always stop the porgramm with Force Quit. Here's what I've tried: After a restart of the programm, it still won't render.After a restart of my mac, it still won't render.After switching off "Parrallel Encoding", it still won't render.After switching to "Mercury Playback Engine Software Only", it still won't render.After completely re-installing the newest version of the Encoder, it still only renders the first 2 videos. ONLY after a hard shut down and start up of the mac, the Media Encoder works for 2 more times. I'm looking forward to your su

Could it be possible to use encoder to infinitely render a stream so I can add effects as it mavos along? I would also like something like a feature that as it is being rendered I can change like for example I set a cut at 5 minutes parameter that automatically cuts the video every 5 minutes so the stream can keep gong uninterupted if something fails. if I want to render 48 hours of video a lot can go wrong but at certain times I might want to change the parameter to 10 minutes or an hour dependend on what I am doing. Then I could add some Ai/deeplearning algorythms to change what content is going to start to become like after a certain period of time etc.

I don't know if this is possible but cutting a video short mid track and/or being capable of adding effects to it as it is rendering would be great. this way I could create a continuous stream of content bebing rendered that I can alter as it moves along.

My previous machines had 4 core and 6 core processors now that I am using 10 core removing threads makes the render faster. The previous two often used only betweeen 20% and 60% of the cpu now it sky rockets to 100% but at 100% it is slower ten wehn I reduce it to 60%.

When I turn on ae renderer they go down I though because it reduced resources available but now I wonder which ones? reducing the cpu threads makes it faster!
