Media Encoder CC 2015 Not rendering Lumetri effects

AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB

Ive tried the following with Red Raw, Pro Res and  .mp4 footage.  If I add a Lumetri Color effect to a clip or adjustment layer and queue the timeline to Media encoder, no color effects show up on the final compressed file. The only way to get the color effect to show up is to bypass media compressor entirely and export directly from Premiere which stops me from working in Premiere. This is one of many issues I have had with this VERY buggy release. Anybody else experiencing this issue?

    here's the workaround:

    In Media Encoder Preferences > General > Premiere Pro > Uncheck "Import sequences natively"

    I'm having the same issue. This, plus many other crashes, bugs and lost features makes this one of the most, not-ready-for-prime-time releases Adobe has ever tried to pull over on us.

    If possible can you screen cap the actual errors, that was if we get a fix at least we know what specifically it should be addressing.

    I reinstalled cc2014 - reopened the same project in Premiere 2015 and everything is working.

    Same issue here.  Works if you export, doesn't work if you Queue.   Yikes.  that's major oversight!   Hopefully this gets fixed asap.

    Also created a ram drive and set it to 4GB

    Then set the system cache and scratch disks to it

    From This page

    https://bogner.sh/2012/12/os-x-create-a-ram-disk-the-easy-way/

    Links to the ram disk utility

    RAMDiskCreator 1.4 for Mountain Lion or better

    RAMDiskCreator 1.2. Lion or Snow Leopard

    So i have 32 GB ram so taking the hit for the scratch drive didn't impact over performance that i noticed . its also nice to keep things organized,

    Keep in mind its volatile, so if you shut down the ram drive will cease to be, and the contents inside lost. However knowing this keeps misc junk in check.


    I can deal with having to simply recreate new preview files, perhaps sooner then later, but minor compared to the performance gain.

    Same issue on for me a new 5k iMac - I can encode fine directly out of Premiere but all my color grading disappears when I add it to the Media Encoder queue. I went back to an older sequence and it seems to be an issue with any kind of color grading, not just the new Lumetri. It doesn't matter if it's color correction applied directly to a clip or if it's on an adjustment layer that was graded in Speed Grade. Media Encoder 2015  doesn't see any of the color grading/correction.

    I have the same problem, and try to export queued and directly Lumetri encoder and does not apply, the only way that works so far is to export directly into premiere..!!

    if someone finds a solution long wait would save until you finish premiere export a project to begin another..!!

    I found that changing project settings specifically the preview type, after experimenting
    These settings worked, (not sure if its a solution). This seems like a major bug that some how slipped by Adobe..

    Bummer - No luck on my system with those project settings. Ive also tried uninstalling quicktime 7 on my systems & experimenting with the  Maximum Render Quality setting. Ive tried creating a new project, reimporting the footage. I can't seem to find the right formula for a fix. Ive been reading that there is a known issue with Direct Link. I wonder if this is related?? Curious how this could slip through their QC unless their plan was to release a beta and work through these issues after release.

    So far (for me) this release has broken round tripping with Speedgrade and even if it was working I could not use media encoder to show the work I had done.  It has also GPU kernel panic bricked my laptop! The most frustrating part is it has been 24hours since I contacted customer support and they still have not gotten back with me.  I still have cc2014 which is working fine. I also have FCPX which is looking better and better every day.

    Hey whats up guys Try using match sequence settings tested working....then convert to final delivery using something like Stream Clip. Also i didn't  use Queue i did direct export to drive location.

    Hope that helps

    Same here with CC 2015. Have to export in Premiere to make Lumetri adjustments stick.

    Side note- I am also experiencing this issue on my MacBook Pro (retina, Mid 2012) - 2.7GHz i7 16 GB ram, Nvidia GeForce GT 650M running 10.10.3 which is now suddenly freezing and experiencing kernel panics immediately after the 2015 cc update.
