Adobe Media Encoder

Hi, I'm working on a CEP plugin for Premiere and Media Encoder. There's this bug I can't seem to get around where the renderer's bounds aren't resizing on the vertical axis properly. It looks like this bug has been persisting for quite some time now as it dates back to at least AME 22.5 (minimum version installed for my plugin) from what I can tell. Sometimes it's rendering the "Queue" panel behind it. The horizontal axis resizes just fine, but the vertical is just plain stuck. In the web inspector screenshot, the height is staying at a constant 956 pixels tall.

Hello, I'm using After Effects 2023 and Media Encoder 2023 to use a custom plugin. I also installed the 2026 version. However, during installation, I accidentally clicked the "delete old version" button. I restored After Effects and Media Encoder on my Mac using TimeMachine, and they are working, but when I try to send a composition from After Effects to Media Encoder, I get a warning that the program is not installed. When I try to add an After Effects composition from Media Encoder, I get the same error. When I click "synchronize settings" in Media Encoder, the online login screen appears, but the button to send the confirmation code doesn't work, and it doesn't send a confirmation email. Is there a solution to recover these versions of After Effects and Media Encoder?  

Media Encoder Stuck on Loading ImporterARRIRAW.prm (See Attached Image)Tried reinstalling but same issueTried older version and works perfectly, but Premiere doesn't detect an older version Media EncoderCan't use older version since I've already been using the latest version of premiere on all of my Projects.Help.

I am experiencing an ongoing issue when exporting videos from After Effects and uploading them to TikTok, and I would appreciate your assistance. I am using Adobe Media Encoder to export my videos with the following settings: Format: H.264 Profile: High Level: 4.2 Bitrate: VBR, 2 Pass Target: 8–12 Mbps    After exporting, the video appears in very high quality when first uploaded to TikTok. However, after several hours, the video quality drops significantly, as if the video is being heavily recompressed. My questions are: Are there any Adobe-recommended export settings specifically optimized for TikTok to minimize quality loss after upload? Is there any technical reason related to exporting from After Effects or Adobe Media Encoder that could cause this noticeable drop in quality over time?  I would appreciate your guidance on the best possible export settings from After Effects to achieve stable and high-quality results on TikTok.

The new masking feature is great imo, but they sometimes break / disappear when exporting through Media Encoder. I have experienced this when using the object mask tool to then copy a mask into “opacity” to essentially create a layout roto. Hoping this will work soon, or there is some solution to this, because I mainly use Encoder to render, as I have to do a lot of bulk exports. 

I will often times send something from Premiere to Media Encoder for exporting. Many times I am creating multiple version, so I have a folder of presets that I drag onto the file and I get my 6 different version of the video. I have Media Encoder set to append the preset name to the filename.  Othertimes I am not choosing a preset, but i am doing custom settings in Premiere and when I send it to Media Encoder and it will automatically append a preset name to the end of the filename. I *think* it chooses the most recent preset that I made/saved, but the preset column will say "custom" but the filename will have a preset name appended to it. I'll be exporting a 4K file and the filename will have "1080 w-captions" appended to it, even though none of the settings chosen are from that preset. I am using Premiere Pro 25.2.3 and media Encoder 25.2I am running macOS 14.7.6 on a Mac Studio M1 Max with 64GB of RAM. This has been an issue for a few years now, and I always assu

I have a timeline for a 30-minute show. In the timeline, there is raw video, audio, and for pre-done packages, there are embedded sequences. Playing back inside Premiere Pro there is no issue. Everything plays perfectly smoothly. When I render the show in Adobe Media Encoder (AME), some parts of the embedded sequences have major dropped frames. I noticed this only when I went to make the promo and the talent on green screen played fine, the video underneath, which was from an embedded sequence, was dropping frames, but only upon export with AME. Playing on the timeline was fine.For the promo, I noticed that if I switched off "Import Sequences Natively," the render was fine. However, I could not do that when I had to re-export the show, as AME still has an issue where it keeps burning in the closed captions into the video regardless of settings.  So, my only fix was to render the shows back out directly from Premiere Pro. Any Ideas? Premiere Pro 24.3.0Windows 10intel 1390

I queue up a project with image 1 in the encoder render, then I go back to the project and change it to image 2 while the first video is still rendering. The encoder changes image 1 to image 2 halfway through the first video. The problem is that for the last two years I have been working the same way and nothing changed in the real-time render if I changed something in the project, but now it changes. This has never happened before.

Hi!I’m encountering a bug when exporting sequences with captions from Adobe Premiere Pro to Adobe Media Encoder (AME). In Premiere Pro, I have a sequence that includes captions (see image01 below). When I send this sequence to AME to render, I choose not to include captions in Premiere's Export window. However, once the sequence reaches Media Encoder, the captions are automatically turned on, and the video is exported with burned-in captions even though I disabled them. Settings and BehaviorI always use the built-in Apple ProRes 422 HQ export preset in Premiere (see image02 below). Here’s what I’ve found:If I export using the preset without modifying any settings in Premiere's Export window, the sequence is exported correctly by AME, with no captions burned in.If I modify any part of the preset settings in Premiere's Export window (for example, I typically disable Effects and Metadata, see image03 below), and send the sequence to AME, the exported video ends up with burned-in

This seems to be a bug in the latest version of Media Encoder (25.6) No matter what I do, whether it's deleting the preferences folder(s) or reverting the workspace and even try and toggle it with the keyboard shortcut Ctrl-1, the Queue window will not show up. I rolled back to base version 25 and the Queue window has returned, so this is particularly odd. Think it's a bug.   

For the past 5 updates of MediaEncoder 2025, I've had extremely long export times for basic sequences. For a 1920x1080 sequence around 2:30 exporting to H264, I'm getting export times in excess of 30 minutes. There are no effects, no titles or graphics, just a basic stringout of 1080p clips. The only difference is the updated MediaEncoder. I had one project that after restarting my computer, the render time went back to normal, maybe less than 30 seconds for a similar sequence with titles, lumetri color, and the works. I've tried restarting the computer this time but I'm still getting these extremely slow export times, all this in time with a huge increase in the annual cost of the software. Why do we keep getting huge increases in annual cost while the software gets worse and worse.---------------------------------ME Version 25.6Edition Windows 10 ProVersion 22H2OS Build 19045.6466Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-7900X CPU @ 3.30GHz 3.30 GHzInstalled RAM 64.0 GB (63.7 GB usable)Gra

I'm running low on my C: diskspace. That's not Adobes fault, but I ask myself, why is AME bigger than Ae?... is there a whole Ae and Pr inside? AME should just convert, right? look: 

Hello, I recently updated the new version v25 of media encoder and videos that usually export in a few minutes are now taking hours. I am exporting from After effects and have used the same process / settings as previous versions, so dont undertand what is going wrong. Any help would be much appreciated to resolve this.  I have attached a screenshot of a current export. Thank you.

Hi all,I'm trying to export a short video on media encoder, under the word status it says warning. The warning says ꜜ.  What does this mean? What do I have to do?

If I select multiple sequences to export and specify the range to be Source In to Out this is not communicated to Media Encoder. It works OK on individual files.Additionally if I select all the outputs in the Media Encoder Queue and edit the settings to specify Source In to Out. I get the warning that I am affecting multiple entries, however in fact only one is changed. It works correctly for other settings but not for output range. Windows 11.Adobe Premiere Pro 25.0.0 (Build 61)Adobe Media Encoder 25.0 (Build 54) Peter

I'm dumping a bunch of existing video files into Media Encoder to make them smaller. I'm exporting them to a new, emty folder. I understand that the program wants to avoid overriting existing files, but when there are no files with the same names in the desitnation folder, I don't need the automatic "_1" at the end.  Is there a setting in Media Encoder to omit the _1 from the file name?Is there a way to append something else, my own custom text, at the end of a file name? Thanks for any help.

On and off for months now I have been faced with the exporting bug "Preparing Audio (X of XXXX)." Adobe Media Encoder claims to be processing a range of hundreds to thousands of audio files when I have, at max, 7 audio tracks. I have found many other posts here and on Reddit with the same problem with no answer from Adobe. I'm hoping they will see this and help! I'm going to break down my sequences, troubleshooting, fixes, and failures. All of these projects are for a remote video podcast whose workflow has evolved and grown more complicated but maintains the same bug. May 2023: I begin the podcast editing process.I'm using Adobe Premiere 2022.My timeline has one video source (export from OBS), another video track for nested graphics and After Effects animations, 4 podcast audio tracks, one audio track for sound effects, and 1-2 audio tracks for musicThe "preparing audio" bug begins. Takes hours to process THOUSANDS of audio files, then it takes another hour or 2 to process t

I am creating  ProRes 422 Proxy proxies for 4K Sony footage with 8 channel audio. I'll attach these proxies to the master clips in premiere so I can use the toggle proxy function, and so matching the amount of audio channels is important for this.I made a preset with 8 channel audio as discrete tracks (screenshot below), transcoded one clip, and it worked great; got all the audio tracks I needed. So I made a giant queue using that preset for the rest of the raw footage, and after transcoding 8 clips according to the preset perfectly, Media Encoder started transcoding my clips as mono. Mono proxies are useless to me because they won't attach to their 8 channel master clips. Can someone shed some light on how the transcode settings changed in the middle of a queue, despite all of my clips having the same raw footage specs and the same preset assigned? It lost me a lot of time and I would like to avoid this happening again.

adobe always excited to get us to update their apps. yet. their own reps still using CC 2014 . WHY ? WHAT GIVES ???? cause CC2014 as it was the Best ?this is why i hate adobe so much. their own people even hate their updates! caught ya red handed!
