Media Encoder crashing

[ChrisOliv]

Hi all. It's been 2 days now that Media Encoder crashes and doesn't allow my to export media. Can anyone help please?

If NVIDIA graphics, make sure to use the latest Studio Driver from NVIDIA (NOT the Game Driver).

Hi Peru Bob,

I've just updated but unfortunately it didn't help.

Hi ChrisOliv

We're sorry about the poor experience. Have you tried switching the Renderer to Mercury Playback Engine Software Only & checked if it's working properly?

Thanks,

Sumeet

Hi Sumeet,

Thanks for your help. Yes I've tried that but it still doesn't work.

If exporting from Premiere Pro or After Effects, try a direct export rather than using Adobe Media Encoder.

Yes that's what I've been doing. I think media encoder doesn't like my project for some reason. It seems to be working fine when exporting from another project.  Thanks for your help Peru Bob!

Can you please share your system info? Like OS and version, CPU, RAM, GPU vRAM, AME version? Thanks. Also a screen grab of your issue will be helpful.

Are you using any 3rd party plugin's? You might need to remove or update them. CoreMelt is a particular one, but also older versions of Red Giant can cause issues.

Hi Joost. Thanks for replying. Aparantely Media Encoder is working fine with other projects. I't's the specific project it isn't happy with. I'm working on a Teams Project using proxies.
I'm using a PC running on Windows 10 version 20H2. My CPU is an AMD Threadripper 1950X 16-Core at 3.4GB.

64GB of Ram. GPU is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB.

The only plugin I have installed is Frame.io

Thanks for your help!
