Feedback on media Encoder 25

Hello

I just updated to Media encoder and PPRO to latest versions.

I launched 8-9 sequences to the encoder

And I am noticed very SLOW processing times.

Question:

 

Is it possible that the media encoder is being slowed by the fact he has a long list of vids to treat, whereas it would have been FASTER if I exported each video one by one manually?

As if the media encoder is "slower" by the "long to do list" whereas if I did it one by one it would have been faster?

Is that possible?

 

I am getting 4-5 min per video doing 1-2 minutes. 1080x1080. (Notice: The input video are 4K though, I wonder if that played a role)

Another note, before updating, I had a sequence with lot of items (just 9 minutes), with input videos of 1600x700'ish, and when I exported everything to 4K, it was FASTER than ME waiting for that same video being sliced into "shorts"  afterwards (and exported).

FYI, This thread post is on the same topic and has more traction:
https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-media-encoder-discussions/media-encoder-extrememly-slow-to-render-since-new-update-v25/m-p/15038761

It's best to keep all the comments and upvotes in one thread to better ensure Adobe actually fixes the issue.

Having nine items in your Media Encoder queue won’t slow down processing times since they’re handled one at a time.

That said, downscaling 4K video will take longer because Media Encoder has to resize every frame, which adds extra work.

As for why Premiere Pro might export a full video faster than Media Encoder exporting segments, it’s hard to say for sure without more details. One possible reason is that the audio sample rate of your sequence doesn’t match your media. When you export the whole video in Premiere, the audio only gets resampled once. But in Media Encoder, it has to resample the audio each time for each segment, which will add to the overall export time.
