I have a jpeg image sequence about 45 min long at 30fps.
Using AME CC (7.2.2.29) I can successfully encode to MP4, CBR at 18 Mbps. File size is about 5.53 GB.
Using AME CC 2014.2 (8.2.054), with the identical preset (migrated directly from previous AME), the resulting file is unplayable.
AME CC 2014 gives following warning at the end of the encode:
- Source File: /Volumes/LS-GRAID-8TB-1/DDL_video/Output/1_Frames/2_Current/102-204-C01-CallanderVeryGold _16bit/102-204-C01-CallanderVeryGold_16bit_[00000-82441].jpg

------------------------------------------------------------
Adobe Media Encoder
Could not write XMP data in output file.
------------------------------------------------------------
When I either reduce the bit rate OR reduce the work area, so that the final output file is under 4GB (or more specifically, under approximately 4,096,000,000 bytes), I do not get the XMP warning, and the final file is playable.
Again, please note that the previous version of AME CC does not have this problem when using an identical preset on identical source, so it does not seem to be a problem with the source frames or the output format chosen, it seems to be an issue with the current build of AME.
Is there a solution to this issue?
thanks
