Adobe Media Encoder

No further details to add. I click on the icon and wait ages for them both to open.

When I use Media Encoder to transcode a video—for example, Apple ProRes 422 HQ with Linear PCM audio—After Effects and Premiere create a delay of about one frame between the audio and the video, which is very annoying. This problem only occurs when I set the output settings to MP4 H.264 with AAC audio. As I need to deliver an MP4 H.264 file with AAC as the audio codec to my client, I have no choice but to use other video transcoding software. And in that case, I don’t have any issues with the audio and video being out of sync; the audio is exactly the same as in the source Apple ProRes file.Is this a bug or have I configured the settings incorrectly?I have attached my ME output preset along with a screenshot of the delay caused by the encoding . Thanks.

When I send any file to the queue from Pr or AE after I specifically told the programme the file needs to be replaced, Media Encoder does not respect that decision and adds "_1" behind the chosen file name for a newly created video file.How can I tell Media Encoder to stop doing this? 

Hi everyone,For some time now, I've been experiencing annoying static glitches/artifacts in my Media Encoder exports. These glitches appear randomly on different frames.I've already tried several troubleshooting steps, including: Switching between Hardware and Software encoding. Clearing all Media Cache and Disk Cache (both in AE and AME). Ensuring my NVIDIA Studio Drivers are up to date. Interestingly, the first one or two renders usually come out clean, but the glitches start appearing in subsequent queue items.System Specs: Laptop: Asus ProArt P16 GPU: RTX 5070 (8GB VRAM) RAM: 64GB normal framecorrupt frame 

HIhaving a major issue with media encoder. Title says it all. i go to encode a simple video just a single clip and at random intervals it actually shuts my ENTIRE computer off. this only started happening when i updated media encoder. before i updated, i had no problems whatsoever. system info:Current Windows 10 software16 gb ramNvidia GEforce gtx 760 (current as well)(Note i have solid works cadcam software with 3D modeling and pulling up massive sub assemblies with hundreds of parts and assemblies the computer doesnt even blink at it. no problems there. makes me think issue is entirely with media encoder)(note videos i am trying to edit with premier pro are just usually one video clip with titles at beginning and end from adobe. i only add maybe a cross dissolve in and thats it. videos are shot with a nikon D7000 camera. using same process i have done so for a few years now with media encoder and premiere pro with no problems till now. also again encoding crashes at random intervals.

I have a project. In Premiere I can render it for 20 minutes, but in Encoder, it’s 60 minutes. Why?Why would anyone deliberately slow down my work? I notice this sometimes in different projects and different software versions. I thought the rendering time would be the same or even faster than in Premiere

Hello! I’m making a bunch of proxies in media encoder, and I’m doing by selecting the original media in the Media Encoder media browser, importing it to the queue, and it’s set to my preferred preset already.  I’m going to hot swap these proxies with some previous incorrectly made proxies, so I want their output names to be the same as the original media plus the suffix “_Proxy” Looking in Media Encoder and online, I have not been able to find a way to make the output name for all those videos the same. They automatically generate as “Original Media Name_1” and set to save by the original media. I change each clip manually to have “_Proxy” instead of “_1” and set it to the right place to save. Is there anyway to include that output suffix and save location with the preset? Or am I stuck doing it one by one?

At my work I am downloading and encoding A LOT of commercial every day.  My question is, can I create a preset that will start at a dedicated in-point in order to cut off the slate or black video at the beginning of the commercial and create an out-point to encode either a 30, 15 or 10 second video file?

Media Encoder is updated 5 days ago. The program will not start neither the installed app nor from creative cloud.Media Encoder wont start and nothing happens when I choose export video/media from Animate. I have uninstalled and installed ME. I did not help. I can in joblist see, that  ME is running - but I can´t see it anywhere..

Adobe Media Encoder 2026 renders blend modes differently than Premiere Pro 2026, resulting in incorrect export output. The issue does not occur when exporting directly from Premiere Pro.**Steps to reproduce:**1. Create a sequence in Premiere Pro 2026 with clips using blend modes (e.g. Hard Light) and opacity adjustments2. Send the sequence to Adobe Media Encoder 2026 via File → Export → Queue3. Export in H.264 or any format4. Compare the exported file with the Premiere Pro timeline output**Expected result:**The exported file from Media Encoder should look identical to what is displayed in the Premiere Pro timeline.**Actual result:**Blend modes and opacity are rendered incorrectly in Media Encoder. The export appears washed out (left Media Encoder 26.0.2; right Premiere Pro 26.0.2)

When I export a video directly from Premiere Pro, all captions and text graphics render correctly.However, when I send the same sequence to Adobe Media Encoder (using batch export), the captions and text elements are missing in the final render.I’ve already tried:Using different fonts Reinstalling Premiere Pro and Media Encoder Trying different versions of Adobe softwareBut the issue keeps happening only when exporting via Media Encoder. version: 26.0.2

Hi all, I am currently experiencing an issue when batch exporting from Premiere Pro; When I batch export sequences using Media Encoder, they all seem to have the music levels way too loud - and does not accurately reflect the timeline. I’m certain the issue is with Media Encoder, as when I export my video within Premiere Pro, the audio levels are all correct. I’m not sure what’s causing this but I’d appreciate any advice on solving the issue as my job requires a lot of batch exporting.I have tried reinstalling both Media Encoder and Premiere Pro, but the issue persists.It is strange how it’s always the music track that seems to be the one boosted.For context, I am running Premiere Pro Version 26.0.1 (build 3) and Media Encoder 26.0 (build 60) on a MacBook Pro (Nov 2024) w/48 GB Memory on macOS Tahoe 26.3.It may be worth noting that I do run plugins in Premiere Pro, such as Artlist.io, Premiere Composer, and a select few from Knights of the Editing Table - Not sure if this could cause i

Hi. I'm not sure if it’s a Windows bug or the Media Encoder is the culprit, nonetheless, I ask Adobe to investigate this issue.This problem had been there for several years in both Premiere Pro and Media Encoder, but some time ago it was fixed for Premiere and is still in ME. Here’s a screenshot to illustrate it:Picture A shows my PC load - both for CPU and GPU - when ME window is active. The program is either maximized or just is not overlapped by any other program window.Picture B shows a drop in performance as if ME is going asleep. This happens if I minimize ME or open my browser to read an article, watch a move, browse the socials or news, or I may open some book locally on my PC, or go se how my folders are organized - anything that switches the focus off ME main window.I have a good PC so it’s out of question that such a simple task as opening the browser may lower the performance so much.And it goes without saying that when the second case happens ME render time become much MUC

I have been having very slow ingest times during the last two updates. Doing a simple copy ingest of .mp4's from a FX3 camera used to take 10-20 mins and is now taking hours using the same setup. I am not sure what happen but I have cleared the memory cache and made sure Mercury renderer was being used. M4 Macbook pro64GB memoryTahoe 26.1

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'm trying to render one of my after effects projects but this error showed up and I don't know how to fix this issue:- I7 8700k- 64GB ram- Rtx 2070 Width: 4320Height:  2160Frame Rate: 60Length: 00:02:03:58------------------------------------------------------------- Encoding Time: 00:00:3004/08/2020 06:48:00 PM : Encoding Failed------------------------------------------------------------Export ErrorError compiling movie.Accelerated Renderer ErrorUnable to produce frame.Writing with exporter: H.264Writing to file: \\?\H:\mercuy folder\mercuy_AME\Top.mp4Writing file type: H264Around timecode: 00:00:00:08Rendering at offset: 0.000 secondsComponent: H.264 of type ExporterSelector: 9Error code: -1609629695------------------------------------------------------------

I'm having a problem with video, exported as MP4 - the colors appear to be washed out.However, when using After Effects for exporting, the colors appear correct (black as #0C0C0C, which is close enough to the real color, which is #0D0D0D)I have read other posts in this community and tried exporting software- and hardware, configuring LUT etc. but no cigar. Initially, I thought it was the player, since the same video appeared different in QuickTime player and VLC, but as mentioned, it can be solved by exporting from AE.When exporting as .MOV from AME, it's almost spot-on.However, I would very much like to continue using AME, since it contains a lot of functionality that I take advantage of and gives me a boost in production. Any ideas?

i wanna set-up a streaming website like Netflix and i just wanna find out if Adobe Media Encoder can help me accomplish the task.

i cancelled my free trial before one day it ends but still changed why

Hi, I’m using AE 2025 and ME 2025 on MacOS and I’m having trouble with sending my exports from AE to ME.When I’m working on a project and going File>Export>Send to Media encoder, ME launchs correctly but the project almost never show up in queue (even after waiting for a long time). I tried to import the project directly from ME with File>Add Source, but when I select the project, the “connecting with the project” waiting bar shows up but load for infinity, nothings happens. Having pretty weak specs ( M1 chip and 8gb ram), exporting directly from AE is impossible and crashes evrytimes. Sorry for my English (not my native language) and thank you !!
