Adobe Media Encoder Fail - need help please

March 15, 2012, 1:14 pm

I keep getting a failed error when trying to use Adobe Media Encoder. 

 

I open up my premiere project and select the comp I want.  I switch the format to Quicktime, select h.264 from preset.  Hit the start button and I get the failed sound/icon.

 

2 questions:

1. My comp is 1920x1080 but when I go in it automatically has it as 720... why is it not recognizing the comp size?

2. Is there a way to fix this error?  It seems to export occassionally to my C drive (which is not raid) but it fails to my F drive (Raid 10).  But usually if I export as a wmv or something smaller it exports fine to F.

AME CC2015 not using all CPUs

I have a Dell Precision T7500 work station. There are two intel xeon processors which show up as 12 CPU cores in the resource manager, numbered 0 through 11. When I export a Premiere project to AME, it only uses one core, number 1. 0 and 2 through 11 are untouched. This makes rendering very, very slow. This was not the case in AME CC6, which spread the load across the 12 cores and was much faster.

 

I read on another thread that this was a known bug in CC2014, but had been fixed in CC2015. However, I never used CC2014 and have this problem.

 

I have read other threads recommending launching AME before Premiere, or restarting the computer before doing the render. These have no effect on the problem.

I export a MXF OP1a from Avid and drag it into Media Encoder v10, but it won't accept the file.

If I downgrade to v9 it works. Is this a known issue?

Black bars when downconverting HD to SD

I am trying to use Media Encoder CS5.5 downconvert a HD clip (1920 x 1080) to DV PAL anamorphic (720 x 576) .

 

However there only seem to be 2 choice for me in the export menu in terms of pixel aspect ratio.

By selecting D1/DV PAL, the exported clip is a 4:3 letterboxed video - which is not what I want.

By selecting D1/DV PAL widescreen, the exported clip is an almost-correct anamorphic video.

 

I say 'almost-correct' because there are narrow black bars on the left and right side of the exported clip.

The image below shows the preview of the exported clip (with black bars at the side)

 

Does anyone know the reason for the black bars at the sides? And how can I get rid of them.

 

Thanks.

What is the procedure for making a 5.1 DCP with the AME Wraptor plugin?

On the Wraptor Audio panel I can choose Stereo or 5.1.

Do I supply a QT file with 6 tracks?

And if so what is the order?

Thanks,

Creating a Gif is different frame rate

If I have an uncompressed .AVI file that I created in After Effects CS5.5 which is 23.976 fps, and load it in Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5, and tell it to create a .GIF of it, at an output fps of 23.976, when I load the created .GIF into Adobe After Effects it tells me the frame rate is 25 fps and there is a black frame padded on the end.  I want the frame rate of the GIF to be what I ask it to be, ie. 23.976, with no additional black frames.

 

Here's what happened with screenshots:

1. I load the uncompressed AVI file that was created in Adobe After Effects CS5.5 into Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5.  Note below that Adobe Media Encoder is saying that the source clip is 23.976 fps, and that the export settings are to create an animated GIF at 23.976 fps.

adobe-media-encoder-output-settings.png

2. After Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 has said "done" (Encoding Completed Succesfully) for this export to a .GIF, if I take that .GIF file that Adobe Media Encoder has just created into Adobe After Effects CS5.5, this is what it says:

 

screenshot-of-imported-file-into-adobe-after-effects.png

 

As can be seen above, Adobe After Effects CS5.5 is saying the GIF file that Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 has just encoded is actually 25 fps, not 23.976 fps like I told it to be exported as.  Also, the GIF Adobe Media Encoder has created is 10 frames long, whereas my original uncompressed AVI is 9 frames long.

 

 

Edit: I've just been reading up on the GIF format and it seems it doesn't store a frame rate but instead stores a frame delay, which is in hundredths of a second.  If this is just an integer, is this the reason for the displayed frame rate discrepancy, ie. 1 frame at 23.976 fps  would be 4.1708 hundredths of a second I think, and 1 frame at 25 fps would be 4 hundredths of a second I think - both rounded to the nearest integer would be 4 hundredths of a second so would the frame delay be set to "4" for both 23.976 fps and 25 fps? (there is also the fact that some short time will be taken for the drawing of the frame)

 

Though even with the above, it shouldn't be increasing the amount of output frames.  It converts it correctly (no additional frames) if I use VirtualDub to convert the AVI to GIF instead of Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5.

Abobe Media Encoder is Now Broke After Update!

Hi,

 

To my dismay, I discovered that Media Encoder no longer exports mp4 files. Each time I try it now, it exports a file with the extension m4v instead of mp4, and it will not play. This is CS6 on a MacBook Pro running mountain lion. It was working previously before the latest update from Adobe. Anyone else experiencing this?

 

When I try and play back the m4v file, I am seeing this error.

media encoder will not save output file destination

January 29, 2016, 10:47 am

I am running on a robust PC.

 

I've always had my media encoder dump all my renders in to the same folder.  For no reason I can figure out, ME resets my output file destination by automatically unchecking that box in my preferences menu each time I send a video to render from Premiere.  I then go back into preferences, check the box and specify my destination.  To test this, I set my destination then close ME.  I open up ME and the destination is still there.  When I send a file from Premiere to ME, the file destination box is now unchecked.  Am I missing something simple here?  Perhaps the issue is something in Premiere?

 

I did have a separate issue with the Titler in Premiere not opening anymore.  That issue is still unresolved, but an Adobe member suggested I remove the workingset.prsl.  This ME issue has been a problem since then.  I just can't seem to find where the issue is.

 

Any help would be great.  Thanks in advance for reading and helping.

Hello Everyone,

 

Is there any program in the Adobe Creative Suite (CS6) that will allow me to convert an MOV file to WEBM and OGG format? If not, can you recommend a free or inexpensive converter that I can download for the Mac, which will help me convert my .mov file.

 

Thank you in advance!

Fast Start Encoding Option?

February 4, 2014, 8:07 am

Hi,

 

I've been searching online and reading through the forum articles about exporting from Premiere and AME with the 'Fast Start' encoding option for quicktime movie files in the h.264 codec.

 

A lot of the information I've gathered is around the 'moov atom' and how it's commonly placed at the end of a file. For the progressive nature of playback to occur this atom apparently needs to be at the beginning of the file. Forum articles and others have suggested using third party, line based applications to change this atom position. This seems ridiculous to me as it complicates my workflow.

 

I have recently switched from the Apple Studio products to Adobe's and in the past I would simply check 'encode for fast start' on the export menu and this would encode the file properly.

 

Does Adobe have this function built into the program? Am I overlooking something? Is there is a better workflow that I am unaware of?

 

How best can I encode my videos so that they will buffer a small amount and then progressively download the rest as the viewers watches it?

 

Thank you all kindly in advance for your help.

WMV export

I was wondering if there is a way to use Media Encoder to export files in WMV format using a Mac. It says here "Windows Media (WMV; Windows only)". Is there any possiblity to integrate a Mac - WMV converter like Flip4Mac into the Adobe Media Encoder.

 

I know that I can use Flip4Mac to export WMVs from QT Pro. But It would be nice to have one program where I can save all of my export presets for.

i've read on the forum that this is due to an old installation of Premiere.
