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:

Any help would be great. Please let me know if you need any addition info.

I am trying to publish videos directly to Vimeo from Media Encoder.  Each time I use publish it shows I am logged in to our vimeo account.  I pick a Vimeo preset and send it to the queue.  Everytime I render out it errors.  The error message states "Vimeo(Not logged in to Vimeo) - Not logged in to Vimeo"

I typically use the vimeo presets, and I've also tried other presets and exporting options. I get the same error for each.

thanks for any help.

I have logged into my Youtube account, selected the publish to that account, I've even made sure I'm logged in on  my browser if that makes a difference but I can't get an upload to go to Youtube.  I just get an error saying it's not accessible?

Has anyone else figured out a way to get this to work?

thanks,

Several TV-stations require you to deliver this format. On a Mac, you'd have it in a Quicktime, I guess. But since I'm on Windows, could someone please link to a preset for Adobe Media Encoder? If not, list all the correct parameters?

I'm trying to encode 4K portrait h.264 .mp4 and I get the following message "Frame dimesions are not supported. Please check that both width/height alues are within limits."

As a temporary work around I'm rendering Landscape 3840x2160 with my content rotated 90 degrees. This will not be good enough in the long run though as I have to produce content for a digital signage player that outputs portrait 2160x3840.

Is there a way to force 2160x3840 or will this resolution be supported in the near future?

Cheers,

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?

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

Does Adobe Media Encoder save/export in swf format?

If yes how?

Thanks

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

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 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:

1. the first says that Key Frames are created at a constant separation;
2. the second implies that Key Frames may not be at a constant separation (because a new Key Frame will be created a certain number of frames after the previous Key Frame, but doesn’t say anything about the Key Frame before that one);
3. the last explanation is quite clear (but at variance with the first): The Key Frame distance is the maximum number of frames allowed between Key Frames.

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?

I recently updated to Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014, and not wanting to keep older apps on my PC, uninstalled Adobe Media Encoder CC (the previous version). As luck would have it, I need the previous version, as Adobe has ceased supporting the FLV video format in Media Encoder CC 2014, per this posting: http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2014/06/removal-flv-f4v-swf-export-adobe-media-encoder -after-effects-premiere-pro.html

I have visited this page, http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=160&platform=Windows, but after downloading and trying a few options I have found that these are just patches/updates, and I receive an "Update Failed Updates could not be applied" message.

So, I'd like to install (while keeping the current version) the previous version on Media Encoder. Is this possible? I so, what web page do I find that on?

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?

hey,

I have a short clip on AE 2017 (around 7 sec) and in 1920x1080 resolution. Simple slide in and fade animations.
I used to export all my animations from AME because usually it made small file sizes and so on.
But suddenly it got very bad. AME estimates my file size to 3M and when its done - its over 130M.
ONLY thing what kept the file size down was changing the Metadata info (no metadata at all) - then the estimation and the actual result matched.
But this also messed up the quality of the result.

What the heck happened?

Thanks.

Adobe Media Encoder has encountered an unexpected error and cannot continue, is the message I see displayed when I go to open Media Encoder. No errors codes, nothing to check against. This seems like a broad response. My CC is updated and so are all of my programs. I really enjoy using this program so I look forward to resolve! Please help me. I am running Windows 10. I am unsure if I have used the app since my upgrade to Windows 10.

Getting this message/ error while trying to upload to youtube after encoding like I normally do. I'm getting it every time, and I have searched everywhere for a solution, and I have come up with nothing. Nothing has changed on my end, and everything appears to be up to date. Would absolutely love a timely response, and something other than a game of 20 questions. This is the error log, nothing has changed on my end, and the internet is saying it's an API issue, but absolutely nothing regarding Adobe specifically is coming up.

I repeat. Creative cloud AND apps are up to date. This started happening randomly, first error happened on 08/08/2016 07:35:08 PM. (I was sick and didn't bother trying to upload until now which explains the gap in time). I have tried everything from a 15 second video, to a 40 minute video, logging out and back in multiple times, etc etc. The usual trouble shooting.

I trust the support team will deal with this in a timely manner, as the publish feature is kind of one of the major selling points of Premiere Pro.

I will NOT answer a series of 20 questions, or play forum tag for a week. I just want a swift solution to this error, or I will simply consider dropping the products due to the mass of errors I have had to deal with via the direct publishing feature.

We try to render 400+ AEP. I've got a watch folder set up to export AE projects with next settings: H.264 (1280x720, FPS 25, VBR 2 pass, 1.5 target 2 max; AAC 48000Hz, 320 kbps). The error appeared within the first 30 projects:

Adobe Media Encoder has encountered an error.  [..\..\Src\ExporterParam. cpp-509]

we had 400+ videos going overnight, it might only do so many of them before the error arised. When I clicked to continue render proccess (at that point where it stopped) AME started doing that but without images and video files (it didn't find the path to the project files).

Can anybody help with this, please?
