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?


Media Encoder cc2015.3 NO AUDIO?

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?

Using Encoder to convert a DVD to a single (MP4) file

$
0
0

I currently have Adobe Media Encoder CC. I have a number of family DVDs that I would like to convert each to a single digital file for online storage. All these DVDs have menus. If possible I like the menu part to also be converted -- I know it will not be interactive but its presence will show what all is there.

 

I know that I can convert individual VOB files to MP4.

 

Question 1: Is it possible to convert all video VTS*.VOB files (preferably with the menu) into a single MP4?

 

Question 2: If the above is not possible, is there an option in AME to merge the resulting MP4 files into a single file?

 

Question 3: If the above approach is not optimal, what is the best way to convert DVD files into a single digital file (with or without the menu part).

 

Many thanks in advance!

After Effects CC - loss of quality when exporting h.264 with VBR, 2 pass

Hi

 

I've exported a video from AME using h.264 with youtube preset but the quality is really bad, both PC and Mac (Worked fine with CS6) and when i export it with vbr, 1 pass it works fine also

 

Is there a fix for this problem?

 

Thank you

selecting multiple files and adding/changing output folder

Is there a way to select multiple files in Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 and change or add the output folder for all? It would be great if the output folder could be set in the Preset rather than in the AME Preference.

720p MP4 Export settings

Hello Forum,

 

Can anyone recommend decent quality 720p MP4 settings with an MPEG4 container? 

 

I can only do 720p versions in a quicktime or h264 container which will not play in windows. 

 

Source is ProRes 422 1080p.  Client requests MP4.  However, the settings for MP4 under the MPEG4 container does not allow for a high enough data rate for 720p.

 

Thanks!

Hello

I'm trying to export a premier cc sequence via adobe media encoder and somehow it tells me on ME that the rushes are offline.

I tried to clean the media cache both from premier and ME but it didn't help.

Waiting for your reply

Key Frames and Key Frame Distance

$
0
0

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?

Adobe Media Encoder Fail - need help please

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.

Media Encoder is not linking video size correctly

Hi,

I need some help, I have just download the new Adobe CC and now I wish I had not! I am having a problem with rendering out After Effects (AE) files in Adobe media encoder (AME). AME is not linking to the file correctly and when I render out a 1080p video in AME it is rendering it out as 480x270 even if I select match source nothing changes. If I set the size in AME physically then the video is the correct size but the quality is terrible.

Screen Shot 2016-11-09 at 6.50.08 am.png

 

The composition settings in AE are set to 1080p and I have been rendering things out like this until this recent download with not problems. I am currently going back to Adobe CC (15.3) to see if that will fix my issue. This is a screen shot of the AE composition setting

Please help this is really F@#king me over and super annoying.

Publish to Vimeo Not Working

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.

problem: import image sequence in adobe media encoder

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

Adobe Media Encoder Network Rendering of Premiere Pro Projects have Audio Issues

$

I have a peculiar problem using Adobe Media Encoder 2015.4 to render out Premiere Pro 2015.4 projects on a network machine. I can render out the projects properly on the machine that the files are local to, but on the network machine, the audio either is static or it is missing tracks altogether. I tried multiple audio and video codecs to make sure it wasn't one in particular that got corrupted, but no change. I am using the h.264 codec with AAC stereo audio with my current export settings. Both machines are Windows 10, and are signed in with the same Microsoft account. Prior to the 2015.4 update, the issue did no exist with the current setup as I described.

How to convert avi to vp9 or h.265?

$

For some reason my h.264 videos do not look good on Youtube when played in HD.

 

Is there anyway to convert my mp4 or avi videos to VP9 or h.265 - Just to even test it!

 

I already use adobe after effects but couldn't find the option in media encoder.

 

Appreciate any help, thanks.

Fast Start Encoding Option?

$
0
0

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.
