Question

Premiere UXP plugin: isAMEinstalled returns false even when it is installed

OS: Windows. 

Premeire Pro: v 26.2.2
UXP Developer Tools: v 2.2.1
Adobe Media Encoder: v26.2.2

 

When using EncodeManager the property isAMEInstalled returns false even when Media Encoder is installed. I have used the cleaner tool to clean up the Apps and reinstalled Premeire, UXP development tool. I can launch Adobe Media Encoder and it launches successfully. I can also manually export videos from Premeire Pro using the “Export” button. The button “Send to Media Encoder” is clickable - meaning Premeire Recognizes that Media ENcoder is present. But I still get isAMEInstalled as false.

    Update: Looks like this depends on the getting an active project and Sequence? When EncoderManager is instantiated after getting an active project and sequence, then  isAMEInstalled returns true.
