Media Encoder no longer working with After Effects

I do a lot of video editing/creation in After Effects and then I export to Media Encoder to render. For the last few months (I'm presuming after an update) I can no longer send files to media encoder!

I've tried sending to the Render Queue and then the AME and also direct from AE (file > export > media encoder). 99% of the time Media Encoder opens up but nothing appears in the queue. On the rare occassion it does make it to the render queue in AME I can't actually render it... It says that it can't connect to the dynamic server.

I've uninstalled both pieces of software and reinstalled but that didn't help...

I'm using macOS Ventura Version 13.5.2
After Effects Version 24.0.1 (Build 2)
Media Encoder Version 24.0 (Build 54)

Thanks

Up to now, I was not able to repro the issue on MacOS 14.2 and Windows 11 21H2.

I can send files to ME queue, but the render always freezes halfway through queue, for example at 104th of 300 queued videos. For the last few month same issue. Hard to believe it hasn't been addressed yet by Adobe, not an insignificant issue.

I also can't export to media encoder from Audition. I send it to AME and AME opens but it never appears in the queue!

I am having somewhat simular issue with ME but exporting from PP 24.0.0 I am running Mac Pro 2019 Ventura 13.5.2, Media Encoder 24.0.2, seems I updated Media Encoder recently and now it wont encode.

It seesm to first try to link to Dynamic Link and then just sits on encodeing. Nothing happens. No preview, nothing. Queue shows Ready.

This is also happening with Beta Version.

Encoding is good within Premeire but export to ME thats when shows up.

Hi, unfortunately it still doesn't work. Today I can't send anything at all to AME. Yesterday I managed to send a file, but it then couldn't connect to the dynamic link server so I couldn't export it.
