Media Encode dynamic link server won't connect

Hi all,

I'm hoping that someone would be able to help me. Whenever I add a composition from AE to ME, the composition appears in ME but ME can't connect to the dynamic link server. It works once in a while (today I've tried 13 times and 1 composition is encoding). I've never had this issue in the last 2 years of working with AE and ME, it's just been in the last 2 weeks that this process has become very time-consuming and frustrating!

I've tried everything that has been in the forums about this issue but they haven't helped unfortunately. I am working on AE 2021 version 18.0.0 and ME 2021 version 15.0.

My Mac specs are:

macOs Catalina version 10.15.7

iMac (late 2012)

Processor 3.2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5

Memory 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Startup disk Macintosh HD - Data

Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX 1 GB

Any help you be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm having the same issue it's insanely frustrating. Tried reinstalling the old version, but it wouldnt work with the new version of after effects, so reinstalled the new one AGAIN, but still no luck.

Where's Adobe regarding this issue? I can't link Premiere to AE or AE to ME. I've spent all day on this and nothing had gotten done. We need answers now!
