Premiere CS6 not exporting to ME6 Queue

$

0

I've had nothing but success with Premiere Pro CS6, but the ability to Queue up videos to Media Encoder CS6 suddenly stopped functioning (nothing happened that I'm aware of). I'm able to Export just fine from Premiere and can add manually to ME, but cannot export to the queue list.

 

This happens after reboot, with different video files, and when the renderings are deleted or not. MECS6 will open, but just sit there. Any ideas of what would be going on?

Mac Pro 1.1 on OSX 10.6.8

Another spanned clips bug?

$
0
0

I've read that Adobe recently fixed a spanned clips bug. Well here's another one (at least on my system):

 

I have several spanned clips recorded with my Sony FS700 (MTS-files in AVCHD-container) and my Panasonic P2-camera (P2 MXF-files). When using Adobe Media Encoder (AME) to convert to ProRes, the spanned clips are joined right, but AME encodes the same material several times. The result is several copies of the exact same encoded material written to disk.

 

Here's how it works:

In one case, my camera had split my recording into 4 individual files. I expected AME to a) either join them and output one long file or b) not to join them and just output 4 individual ProRes files. Instead I ended up with 4 joined identical 32 GB files on disk. I did it again and noticed that AME actually encoded the same material 4 times in a row. What a waste of time and space …

 

When using Sony MTS-files, AME creates different filenames for each clip (0001.mov, 0002.mov, 0003.mov. When using Panasonic MXF-files, AME put _1, _2, _3, etc. at the end of the filenames.

 

In my opinion, AME should have a tick box where you can chose "join spanned files" or not. If it had such a box, it would chose to leave it off most of the time. That way it would be much easier to check if AME has converted all the files or not. It would be 32 files in = 32 files out, not 32 files in = 2 spanned files + x small files out … Nowadays, I have to doublecheck everything before formatting my cards.

 

I'm using Adobe Media Encoder v. 7.2.0.43 (64-bit) and OSX Mavericks 10.9.1 on a late 2013 Macbook Pro 15-inch Retina 2,3 GHz i7 16GB RAM 512 SSD.

Where are the AE render settings in Media Encoder?

$

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?

Adobe Media Encoder does not encode

$

0

The only way I can get Media Encoder to work with Premiere is to export directly in Premiere first to a file, and then take that file into Media Encoder. When exporting from Premiere, Media Encoder acts like it is working, but never encodes anything. It shows elapsed time that continues to count up, but never shows any remaining time and never shows any video in the output preview. It doesn't seem to matter what the encode codec is. (What I'm trying to encode to is MP4).

Please advise.

 

System:

OSX 10.7.4

16 GB Ram

Quad 3.0Ghz dual core

16 TB external RAID storage (600 Meg/Sec sustained)

 

Video sourced from and to the raid for encoding attempts.

Premiere will encode direclty using same presets.

Media Encoder CS6 Not using all CPU Cores or RAM

$

I'm currently exporting a 90 second video (using the Vimeo HD 1080p preset), and it is taking about 30 minutes. This is extremely strange as I have an i7-990x OC'ed @4.5, 12GB RAM, SSD, etc.

 

I looked at Performance tab in Windows Task Manager, and saw 4 threads were not being used at all, only 20-25% of the CPU was in use, and only 6GB out of the 9GB I specified was being used.

 

Why isn't Media Encoder making full use of my CPU and RAM?

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.

Media Encoder CC Encoding Failure

$
0
0

I have never had any problems with Media Encoder on my system, but since ugrading from CS6 to CC suddenly the Media Encoder fails whenever I use the QUEUE rather than EXPORT on the Export Settings screen in Adobe Premiere Pro CC. 

 

When I click the Failure link for more information, it just pulls up the log which tells me that Encoding Failed.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Any ideas for how to resolve it?

 

It's not a huge problem because I can always encode each video one at a time by clicking export, but being able to batch process a bunch of videos at a time helps the workflow.  THANKS!


Missing AME CS6 Presets

Not sure why I cannot chose Quicktime or AVI in Media Encoder. I can render out any way I want from Premiere. I can render/export directly from Premiere, but when I queue it out to AME it defaults to F4V and won't even give me an option for Quicktime (DNxHD) or AVI (Cineform).

 

 

Here are my options in Premiere (normal)

Here it is in AME once it's been queued out from Premiere.

What gives? I have CS6 updated completely as of today, 6/22.

I noticed there are no presets for H.264 at 59.94 for 1920x1080. Is there a reason? Will it not work at 59.94 at 1920x1080?

AME CC can't see files for render

Hi!

 

When I try to export a short sequence from Adobe Premiere Pro CC I hit queue button and AME CC opened with current sequence prepared for rendering. When I hit green arrow to start render it opens a pop up window and said: "Offline material is present in this export and will be encoded using the Offline Media graphic" ?! What offline material? All media is online. I go back to Adobe Premiere Pro CC and hit export button, and everything was OK. With Adobe Premiere Pro CC everything was renderd as it should be and with AME CC i got rendered Offline Media graphic when I hit continue in a warning pop up window. Everything was the same (settings, files, location for rendered files, all media is loaded correctly...) different is just the rendering software.

Anyone have an idea why is that happening?

 

Thank you!

AME hangs at "Reading XMP Data" and won't start encoding

System:

Mac OSX 10.8.5

2 x 3.06 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon

64 GB RAM

ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB

 

Premiere 7.2.1 (4)

AME 7.2.0.43

 

I've created short videos, usually 4 to 12 minutes in length.  Edited from Sony XDCAM EX video at 720p60.

I export 5 of these videos to AME using the h.264 codec to try to create mp4 files and cueue them in AME.

 

Once they are in the Queue of AME, I hit start.  AME shows the progress at the bottom and says it is Reading XMP data, but it

then never progresses to the encoding process.  I just keep seeing that yellow and grey barber pole progress bar moving, but nothing

ever happens.

 

I've used this process for months with no problems and now it won't work.  My coworkers and I have the same setup and we are each

haveing nothing but problems ever since Premiere and AME went past 7.0. 

 

I saw it mentioned in another question to uncheck "Enable native Premiere Pro sequence import".  I tried that yesterday and it worked.

Today it does not.

 

Please help, this is getting rediculous the amount of problems we are suddenly having with Adobe products and a maxed out Mac machine.

Why did media encoder make a sheep noise when it failed?

I'm just sitting there browsing the web while my video is encoding, and it fails, but I had a heart attack because it made a SHEEP noise? Is this normal?

 

Oh, and how do I change this?

AME has not downloaded to my computer woth Premiere. I would like to know if there is a location that I can download this as a stand alone rather than bundled with Premiere.

I am using win7 64 bit 12gb ram on adobe CC full subscription.

 

Adobe: I have asked this question in these forums a few times in the past month and have had no response at all. Please let me know if there is another place or way to ask these questions? I'm confused about what to do here - i am paying full price for the service and can not get any support on a problem? Please answer me!


No audio on H264 outputs created from mpeg original

Hi

 

This has happened twice now, and I'm not sure what cleared it before

 

I've created a clip using 'Match Sequence settings' and created an mpeg file which has audio.  If I automatically (using the my watchfolder option) or manually, by dragging into AME create a wmv or H264 version, they have no audio!

 

Any ideas?

 

I'm using CC on a windows PC with a FX3800 NVidea card.  CUDA as renderer

 

I think if I export stright to the H264 from PPro, that works fine

 

Thanks in advance

How to change variable frame rate to constant?

$
0
0

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

Media Encoder CC not listed in the list of app in CC

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate and I am a Adobe Creative Cloud for Teams member.  I'm trying to install the new version of Media Encoder, but when i open Creative Cloud app it is not listed in the long list of apps.  I have CS6 and CC installed on my computer.

 

Can you offer some suggestion how i can download and install this program? 

 

I am trying to convert a mov file to webm and i am hoping Media Encoder CC can do that since I did not see a webM choice in media encoder cs6.

 

Thanks.

The Adobe provided presets have ProRes 422 and and ProRes LT but no ProRes HQ, which is all I work with. Any way to get HQ presets for AME?
