Media Encoder giving me half resolutions

Hi guys,

Got a question about the After Effects - Media Encoder workflow. Whenever I send a comp from After Effects to Media Encoder I always have to double check the downsample setting. Is there a way to get Media Encoder to render comps on full resolution by default?

Thanks for any help.


Cheers,

Marten

    Yes, that is exactly what I doing. I send my composition from AE to AME with Ctrl+Alt+M shortcut. And AE sends to AME information about preview render settings:

    I don't want it. In previous versions of AE composition was sent in full resolution by default. How I can bring it back? Thanks!


    there is a bug in the current version. information about it here: Known issues in After Effects CC 2017

    Yes, that is exactly what I doing. I send my composition from AE to AME with Ctrl+Alt+M shortcut.

    it's not Exactly what I suggested. which is this:

    you can use the handy "Queue in AME" and avoid this problem:

    to use Queue in AME send your composition to the render queue and use the glorious button called "Queue in AME"

    Can someone please make an update that fixes this.... So many of my renders have come out half rez or quarter rez and it's really annoying

    There should be an option in Media encoder that forces it to render it in full resolution, I have had instances where I noticed this too late and the animation was already running on digital signage screen in low resolution...

    I have the same problem. It was everything OK in previous version, but now I must to remeber to turn "Full resolution" in composition panel, it is very annoying. :-( I want to render my composition in full resolution by default! Please.

    Hi MartenK112,

    Change the AfterEffects composition panel resolution to full & then export to Media Encoder.

    Please let us know the status.

    Thanks,

    Vidya Sagar.

    I have the same problem along with presets from previous versions that crash AME, and just random crashes all over the place. AME 2017 is one big mess and almost unworkable in a professional environment. I'm back to rendering in AE, wish is just ridiculous. AME needs an update fast!
