Media Encoder won't queue

Same issue. Using all the latest CC 2014 updates on iMac Yosemite, I can send one 1 sequence to the AME at a time. Every time I try to send a second it hangs. Every time, repeatable.

Hello,

I am having similar issues.

When opening "Export Settings" from the timeline in Premiere, I can apply all necessary settings and click "Queue".

This launches Adobe Media Encoder but the file doesn't show up.

I can click on the "+" in the top left corner and locate it, then add it that way.  It will render after clicking the play button.

I have tried multiple reinstalls (of individual apps, and of the entire suite as a whole including the Adobe Creative Cloud Installer).

I've also tried all the other options presented in this thread.  After removing the folder posted by dan_jarman (Mac/Users/MYUSERNAME/Documents/Adobe/Adobe Media Encoder/8.0) AME refused to render anything. PERIOD.  The play button would click up and down but nothing would happen.

I put that folder back and now I can at least continue to render, but only after using the "+" from within AME.

This wasn't an issue after Yosemite.  I don't believe I had issues until I updated the CUDA drivers from NVIDIA one day.

When opening After Effects there was a message that I used to ignore, something about "ray-tracing".  I decided to update the CUDA drivers as a suggestion from this warning, this may have been the downfall.  I can't be sure.

Does anyone at Adobe have an answer for this?

Why can't Premiere Pro send a sequence to AME and have it open correctly with the ability to render?

Yosemite 10.10.1

Thanks-

Hi...

I posted this possible solution elsewhere, hope it works for you...

I had a similar issue going from AE to AME on the mac, plus the queue would not start when something was set-up successfully. After bit of playing around i removed the following folder to my desktop (with AME closed): Mac/Users/"MYUSERNAME"/Documents/Adobe/Adobe Media Encoder/8.0 with that "8.0" folder removed from the "Adobe Media Encoder" folder, i started up AME which basically rebuilt the folder again, and everything started working normally. I hope this helps you out! Dan

Hi... Go to preferences, try checking the box and put one to start in 10 seconds, it worked for me

Hi,

I'm sending the comps from After effects to AME. I've found a solution to "STAT QUEUE not working".  In the preferences box of AME, I checked the "Start queue automatically when idle for ...Minutes". And the queue starts. Till Adobe finds a solution, it's a workaround. But each time, I close the AME, it's hanging and I force quit.

adobe cc updated to recent versions

Just wanted to chime in and say this is a REGULAR occurrence over here with me. Costs us a lot of time. Late-2013 MacBook Pro running Yosemite and latest version of Premiere Pro CC 2014. This also happened on 10.9 (Mavericks).

What's up with Adobe? All of a sudden, PP CS6 no longer works with AME. I Queue from Pr and AME launches with file in Queue. I press Render button, and it takes several minutes before anything shows up in a the Encoding tab. When it does, I get an endless "Connecting to Dynamic Link server..." message, before finally, after several minutes, it fails. Log states that it can't read the source file. I suspect this is a Dynamic Link issue, since the source file is exactly where the log says it should be. I've noticed recently that Dynamic Link hung up also when trying to send a clip to Ae to round trip effects back to Pr. I just ended up doing the work in Ae and imported it manually into Pr. So much for the heralded 'interoperability'. You spend a couple grand on CS6 Master Collection to have all the tools, and many of them have all kinds of issues. Au, for example, crashes 75% of the time when I open it. Reopen it again and it works fine. Ae often continually gives me 'program has stopped working' dialog with an option to quit, and many times it is talking about one of many instances it has launched in the background, and when I say 'quit', the main program I see just keeps on working. And now, out of the blue, Pr / AME queuing stopped working. It has worked, but that is the beauty of Adobe products: "life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get", or if it is going to work when you have a deadline to meet. So, has anybody solved this issue? Seems it's been going on for some time now. BTW, I'm on CS6 on an HP Z820. Win 7 Ultimate.

And [expletive deleted] with that stupid-ass sheep sound when there is an error. Who thought THAT was a good idea. Probably the same [person] who wrote the interface between Pr and AME. I'm so fed up with crappy SW from Adobe. Wish there were other options. And they keep telling me I should RENT this crap?

My problem was that that encoding window wasn t showing by default. I have to reopen it each time now

Thanks for the trick. CC June 2014 does have many issues....

I am having the same issue, among others, after updating to CC 2014 yesterday.

Quad Core Xeon 3.2 GHz,

16GB 1333MHZ ECC Ram

Nvidia K2000

Windows 7.

Unchecking import natively and holding shift while launching (if that even applies to Win7!?!) seemed to get it working, but the resulting render had media offline graphics present, even though the media is not offline. It's not even dynamically linked, which I know can cause some issues. Plain old AVCHD and .MOV footage.

My renders are taking about 25%-30% longer as well, with seemingly all variables the same.
