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?

 

 

System Specs:

Mac Pro 1.1 on OSX 10.6.8

Dual 2.66GHz Intel Xeon

a folder of media encoder preview files is created in my documents- adobe- media encoder

this folder is getting bigger, I think every time I'm using media encoder to export my projects

at the moent it's 30 gigs after less than a month using CC

 

I need to know if I can delete this files? and I need to redirect them to my D drive or even better not create preview files

Converting MOV to MP4

$

Hi forum,

 

I'm using AME CS6 and would like to convert a MOV file to MP4. My format options are F4V, FLV, H.264, H.264 (legacy), and MP3. I tried to export using H.264 and ended up with a 3GP file. Is it possible to export a MP4 file using one of my 5 format options? Or are there additional steps that I'll need to take? If so, what are they?

 

Thanks for your help!

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.

I just bought and installed the lasted version of the CS suite through the cloud. Everything else seems to be working so far, except Media Encoder CC. When I downloaded all of the software, it came with both Media Encoder CC and CS6. CS6 works just fine. CC keeps crashing on start up.

As I said, everything including Media Encoder CS6 works fine. They open, I can do stuff, save, and close. But when I try to start up Media Encoder CC, I get the splash screen, then a Problem Report for Adobe Media Encoder CC. The details of the message are as follows:

Other than the spect on my machine, I have no idea what that means. I looked at the reason in the middle of all that, but it doesn't make sense. Why would it be looking for older versions of the libraries if it's a new version of the software? Also, the interesting thing to note is that in the chart it reports 7 crashes. That corresponds with the number of times I've tried to open the app. Please help!!

 

Thanks in advanced!

2 pass f4v fails at start of second pass

Has anyone had problems with f4v export in AME?

 

Single pass CBR is OK but when I created a preset with 2 pass VBR (tried various different settings), the encode fails just after it starts the second pass with an error compiling movie - unknown error.

 

No problems with any other encodes that I know of.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Paul.

AME CS5 refuses to work for us

$

Hello,

 

We have recently upgraded to Windows 7/64 bit and CS5 Production Premium. We are an Avid post house with 4 Avid systems running on a Unity server.

All of our material is digitized to this Unity 32tb server.  CS4 worked perfectly in this environment. However, when we are exporting Quicktime reference files from our Avid Media Composer version 5.x systems, the files just hang when trying to make FLV's with cue points (and other files). I've reinstalled the app, reinstalled the codecs, and still nothing. This is a critical piece of software for us and we need it to work for the amount of money we paid for 10 seats of it.

I'm on an HP Z800, 24gig of Ram, 100gig available on local drive and 7tb available on Unity drives.  Any help appreciated.

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?

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.

Exporting Premiere Pro CS6 project to AVI

Can sounds a little funny, but since I've upgraded to Creative Cloud CS6 I am experiencing troubles finding out how to convert any file to AVI output format. I can't find the right format in the Presets pannel for that (amongst the system presets in the panel on the right).

Target & Max Bit Rate - A Little confusing Need file to be 15 GB Blu-Ray Help????

I have a 2 and a half hour project on PPro CS 5.5 that I want to encode in H.264 Blu-Ray.  I want to get it to 15 GB.

 

What woud be the best settings to do so?

 

The Target Bit Rate and Max Bit Rate have a lot to do with it, but I am a little confused on what each of them really do. 

 

I just want to get it to 15 GB and make sure the Estimated file size somewhat accurate.

 

Is 15 GB too big for a Blu-Ray?

 

Thanks in advance

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.

NEW BUG!!! - New 7.1 Update to AME forces Encore to RE-Transcode Bluray files

$
0

Like the title says...

 

Prior to the update, you were able to Bluray files (H264 BLURAY) and they'd show up in Encore as "Don't Transcode" but after the update any files exported from AME in the same H264 Bluray format show up as "Untranscoded" in Encore and you are forced to have to re-transcode them all over again for a 2nd time! Is this a bug? How can I get around this?

 

NOTE: Any export made from AME prior to the update still shows as "Don't Trancode" in Encore...only the new exports (post-update) force you to re-trancode a 2nd time.


AME CC Crashes on Startup (PC)

Same problem here on a PC, not mac. If you launch Premiere Pro CC and try to export to AME, AME crashes and 2 out of 3 times, this causes PP to crash.

 

If you lauch AME ahead of time, it normally doesn't crash when you export from PP.

 

This never happens with CS6 counterparts.

 

AME CC and PP CC are also a backawards step for those of us who still produce DVD's for clients. I think it's arrogant of Adobe to think that just because they don't do discs, that their clients won't either.

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.

Video Encoding for DVD with Media Encoder

I've been struggling to get more videos on a DVD. Since I'm not an expert on this. Most of my vides are about an hour long and are mostly PowerPoint slides and screen capture of programming demonstrations.

 

I just keep wondering why DVDs I get to watch TV shows can have 4-6 hours of media when I can barely get two.

 

Any help would be appreciated.
