I see that finally the new version of AME supports encoding in h265. I opened AME but I'm not able to find the h.265 preset. Where is it/what is its name?
Thanks in advance

I'm trying to encode videos in Media Encoder while editing other videos in Premiere. Media Encoder keeps pausing for no apparent reason. I've done some investigating, and it seems when I hit the spacebar in Premiere to pause or resume playback, it's also pausing the encoding in Media Encoder. This seems like a pretty self-defeating bug to me.
I tried to solve this problem by deleting the spacebar keyboard shortcut in Media Encoder, but it's still happening. Is there a fix for this?
Hi
have a problem with adobe media encoder CS6, in media encoder preferences I change the Display Format to 25 frame timecode, I import a serial of TGA (170 frame) to media encoder as a TGA image file Sequence, this serial generated from 3D Max and ToonBoom applications, the specification of TGA serial 1080 50i "1920X1080 - upper filed - 25 fps", when I import the sequence, media encoder recognize the sequence as 1920X1080 - progressive - 29.97 fps, in interpret Footage options window I change the settings of the sequence to upper filed - 25 fps, and I export it to quicktime mov 1920X1080 - upper filed - 25 fps uncompressed
the problem:
the duration of mov file is 06:20 and that is correct for 170 frame as 25 fps but the mov file not contain all tga serial image, the image freeze at time code 05:16 (frame number 142) and duplicate the frame 142 to the rest of movie file
if I don't change the frame rate in interpret Footage options window for the tga sequence which media encoder recognize it as 29.97 fps, the mov file contain all TGA frames but with duration of 05:16 which not 25 fps
in adobe media encoder CS5.5 I don't get this problem at all
1- how to solve this problem ??
2- how to force adobe media encoder CS6 to recognize the imported image sequence as 25 fps frame rate ??
Windows 7 Ultimate SP1, Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection CS6
thanks

So apparently Adobe has changed their settings in CC 2014 and Adobe After Effects no longer has the H.264 container, and is only offered as a codec for Qucktime. I've been told I have to go into Adobe Media Encoder for the H.264 codec. That's fine, problem is that Adobe Media Encoder does not really have any options for Alpha. From my understanding you have to set it to 32bpc for it to do alpha in a file, which did not seem to work, but that's irrelevant now because that's not what I need. I need to render out two files for a batch list, one with just RGB files and one with just alpha. I talked to someone from Adobe and they suggested I post here. Let me know if you need details.
Thank you very much.
In previous versions of AME and AE CC, I was able to set the preview resolution in AE to quarter for faster preview and when I add it to the AME encoding queue, it will still render at full resolution. However, after the most current update, If the preview resolution is set at a quarter, then the resolution of the encoded file will also be downgraded unless i set the preview resolution in AE to full before adding it to the AME queue. Is this an intended feature or am I doing something wrong?
Does Adobe Media Encoder save/export in swf format?
If yes how?
Thanks
Hello,
I am exporting a mpeg HDV file that has a constant frame rate to a H264 video (.mp4) video to upload to a web-base video player. I'm actually using the preset in Media Encoder "YouTube HD 720p 29.97".
The online video web interface I use requires a constant frame rate. But when looking at the video in MediaInfo it shows the video file as a variable frame rate. After looking through the settings in Media Encoder I cannot find any option to correct that. I see where you can change the frame rate and it is at 29.97. So you would think it would be constant but it is not. And it does not have any settings, that I can see, to change from variable to constant. I do see the bitrate settings, but that is not the issue.
I also have Apple Compressor and that successfuly does a constant frame rate, but if possible I'd rather use Adobe Media Encoder. So does anybody know how to change this setting? Thank you
I need help I've have been trying everything to export my audio. I have been transferring cassette tapes and fixing them. It sounds perfect in the timeline but every time I export it and I've tried everything like playing with the Hz and bitrate but all I get is a crackling, pitched metallic audio.
Does anyone know what export settings or anyway to export the same audio as in timeline?
I've tried MP3, WAV, AAC (that sounded a little better)
48 bitrate 48000 Hz
how do i purchase adobe media encoder?
I want to buy it and use it to make mxf files for television material, my 30day trial period has expired.
Please help urgently.
Thanks
I'd like to use Adobe Media Encoder for background rendering, but how do you set the render settings (like bit depth, motion blur, solo switches, guide layers, ect)?
Also, how do you select the output color profile from AME?
Hi
I make some screencast with VLC Media Player (www.videolan.org, free and open source), it captures my desktop and exports the file in H.264 at 25 fps. Then I edit this in PPro and also export the clip in H.264.
All is well but... The original video files from VLC has a top quality with a very low bitrate (200 Kbits/s), and when I try to export the edited video with the same bitrate from AME, the quality is just horrible! Artifacts, blurred, with some blocks... Even if I export with a bitrate more than 20x higher than the original file (4400 Kbits/s), the quality is not as good as the original.
Here is a comparison between the three exports:
Can you explain me why there is a so big difference even if the bitrate is multiplied by 20? Here are the export parameters (with a bitrate of 400 Kbits/s):
Thanks a lot for your help and please excuse my poor english
Running an HD render from the new AE via "Add to Media Encoder Queue" to the new Media Encoder.
Everything encodes perfectly...... except the audio?
(Tried rendering to H264 .mp4, AND .wmv, both have same issue)
Audio is checked on, so it's not a mistake with my render settings
Anyone else?

When I queue exports from Premiere CS6, Media Encoder totally ignores any custom export settings, and chooses some completely different system defined default settings, which I did not choose in Premiere. In previous versions Premiere would always pass the encoding settings to the Media Encoder.
Update: When I tried to import the custom settings into Adobe Media Encoder, I got an error message: "Preset could not be imported. No exporter found for this preset." Then I've realized, that AEM doesn't even have a QuickTime export format!!! Actually it offers only 4 export formats: H.264 (MP4), FLV, F4V, and MP3. Then, when I queue an export with Premiere with one of those 4 formats, then AEM would accept it. Anything else - it just wouldn't work!!! So wait - am I missing something, or I literally cannot queue any other common format exports with AEM??? I need to work with MOV, AVI, AIFF, WAV etc. files, which all aren't accepted by the Media Encoder... Or am I missing something???
This is ridiculous. I am becoming quite fed up with Premiere CS6 bundle - in 20 minutes I have found already 4 diferent features, that worked in previous versions, and work no more in CS6
I don't know how it worked in CS5.5 - anybody?
I am using the YouTube 1080p 30fps preset and twice now I have had an export of the same project fail. The error log states:
"File importer detected an inconsistency in the file structure of Accident Reenactment.mp4. Reading and writing this file's metadata (XMP) has been disabled.
Adobe Media Encoder
Could not write XMP data in output file."
The result is a small file of 24 bytes, so the video doesn't even get created. I have exported this same project to DVD and ProRes with no issue, so I have no idea what the problem is.
Here is the whole section from this export:

Hi,
I'm having issues with the 2017 version of Media Encoder.
To start, I exported my files from Adobe Premiere CC 2017 version. I have no problems with audio. Sound is there with the file(s). Everything looks good.
Then, when I use the media encoder to change to another format, I get no audio at all. All of my clips from the new ME has no audio.
I have cleaned the media cache from both Premiere and ME. I also re-installed Media Encoder 2017. So far, nothing has worked. Still no audio on files.
Everything was fine with previous version. Any suggestions?
how do i purchase adobe media encoder?
I want to buy it and use it to make mxf files for television material, my 30day trial period has expired.

Thanks
I posted this is the Premiere forum two months ago, but no response.
I’m trying to understand where Key Frames are positioned, but the info I have found on the web is unclear. Here is Adobe’s explanation from the Adobe Media Encoder PDF:
Explanation 1
Key Frames are complete video frames (or images) that are inserted at consistent intervals in a video clip. The frames between the Key Frames contain information on changes that occurs between Key Krames.
By default, AME automatically determines the key frame interval (Key Frame Distance) to use based on the frame rate of the video clip.
If your footage has a lot of scene changes or rapidly moving motion or animation, then the overall image quality may benefit from a lower Key Frame Distance. A smaller key frame distance corresponds to a larger output file.
In another Adobe document it states that a Key Frame Distance is the:
Explanation 2
Number of frames after which the codec will create a key frame when exporting video.
Somewhere else it states (re Key Frame Distance):
Explanation 3
This sets the maximum # of frames between key frames. If this # of frames without a keyframe occurs, the compressor will insert a keyframe regardless of whether the scene has changed.
There are differences between the explanations:
My interest in Key Frame Distance is because I have noticed a very slight, brief shimmering at one-second intervals in my slide shows exported from Premiere in h.264 (Blu-ray), 23.976 fps, 20-30 Mbps bit rate, 2-pass, Key Frame Distance unticked (with “23” appearing dimmed). It’s a very subtle effect, not always visible. I assume the shimmering is when a new Key Frame has been inserted during a still. Whether or not that really is the cause, I'd still like to know more about Key Frames. Most of my Premiere work is with stills, with the occasional video clip from a Lumix GH3 (1920 x 1080, 23.976 fps, AVCHD) thrown in. The stills have mainly simple dissolve transitions.
Q1: I assume the clips out of my GH3 have, as per Explanation 1, a constant distance between Key Frames. If such a clip is cropped inside Premiere at a frame that is not a Key Frame, does Premiere, when exporting, insert a new Key Frame at the crop point, using information contained in the original clip to create the image at that particular frame?
Q2: In general, where two unrelated video clips abut (but not at Key Frames), what does Premiere do about Key Frames? Add one at the last frame of the first clip, and at the first frame of the second clip? Then apply the Key Frame Distance parameter to ensure that within each clip there are a suitable number of Key Frames?
Q3: For stills, does Premiere insert Key Frames at the Key Frame Distance? Or is it clever enough to know that: “Hey, this is a still. No Key Frames are needed.”
Q4: Where are Key Frames created for a still that is dissolving? Assume a Key Frame Distance much greater than the dissolve time. If I was designing Key Frame inserting software, I would create a Key Frame at the start of the dissolve, one in the centre, another at the end of the dissolve, and then no more until the next clip.
Q5: Can Premiere (or AME or After Effects) tell me where Key Frames are located? Can I move them?
Guys,
Can we get Adobe Media Encoder to shutdown the pc after encoding done?
I have searched but have not found anything suitable?
Is there someone who has script that can monitor the exe and then shutdown pc after encoding done?
