Media Encoder QT can't be imported

I have some watchfolders configured in Media Encoder CS6. I created a QT Ref from a TGA Image Sequence with QT 7 and when I try to convert it, Media Encoder sais that the file could not be imported please check setting and try again....I tried with a simple H264 video and it works juste fine. I did the same with a video file using PNG,TGA, TIFF and Animation exported to QT file and it did the same thing...

Donald, it sounds like you may be trying to import another iMovie HD project. If so, see:

Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

Media encoder CS4 can't do what Flash Encoder CS3 does????

Quad 2.66 Xeon MacPro / OS 10.5.8 / CS4 all updates applied. / 24GB RAM
Adobe Media Encoder CS4 won't import .wmv videos.
Flash CS3 Media Encoder does it just fine.
What's the deal? Why remove the support?
I do have Flip4Mac installed as well as Perian. Any chance these items allow the CS3 encoder to work, but not the CS4?

Adobe Media Encoder CC: Can I export to Apple ProRes 422 on a Mac?

Hi folks,
I tried to find some information about it, but couldn't really find a definite answer on this.
Unfortunately, my Mac is getting fixed as we speak, so I can't try this out either...
I want to convert mxf files (XDCAM HD 422 1080i 50, 50 Mbit/s with multiple Audio channels) to Apple ProRes 422 using Adobe Media Encoder CC.
Simple question: Is that possible or do I need to look for a different workflow/converter?
Thanks for your help!
Jens
PS: OS is Mavericks...

Hi DataWrangler,
Thanks for posting on Adobe Forums.
Please download proress presets for Adobe Media Encoder from here : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5411
Please update if this helps.

Adobe Media encoder repeats clips when I import to transcode

The last two days, every time I drag a number of clips into media encoder it seems to repeat one particular clip in the job lot, instead of reading the different clips I have selected.
I have restarted and cleared the cashe. I am still having problems. When I drag a group of clips into Encoder and when I drag a clip one by one, it reads the incorrect clip for encoding, and the name refers to one clip on the list instead of lots of individual ones.
I am importing MXF files to ProRes, using OS x 10.8.5 with Media Encoder - 8.1.0.122
I have had no problems doing this in the past, as in last week, and am currently doing it with the same footage on another machine.
Has anyone had this problem at all?
Many thanks,
Danielle

I inserted different clips, and they appear as one clip repeated as below.

Adobe Media Encoder CS5 - Can we crop and resize at the same time?

Flash 8's video encoder, use to let you crop (cut x amount of pixels out) and then resize a video (and in that order it did it).
CS5's Media Encoder is confusing, from what I can tell it cannot do both, you either can crop or resize but not both. ANd if you can do both, you definately cant crop before the resize. So which is it?
Resizing made sense last, because you could put in new values for the resize nad figure out how much you need to crop out.
Please help this is driving me insane.

Everyone in my office has the same problem!
We really need an alternative to AME both because of the crop/resize problem and many other seamingly random issues with preview and export.
Adobe Media Encoder sucks...

Finder media encoder, how can I add audio formats support?

I've noticed the feature where if you right click on a media file, you get an option in the popup menu to encode the file to some Apple-friendly format, I suppose.
I am trying to find a way to enhance this program's support for audio formats. I have tons of music in FLAC and a little bit in other formats like OGG and -gosh- wma, and I'd rather convert them with a native, Apple-written app than with anything else.
Any clues as to how we can enhance this Encoder feature's support for audio formats?

Many video and audio files can be added to keynote slides using the Insert Media browser - the sounds and videos need to be in a format recognized by iPad and need to be placed in the browser via iPhoto then synched to the iPad using iTunes. Sound files can be created using Garageband or Quicktime and appear as movies in the browser so it is best to place them in a separate album with descriptive names.
If you would like Apple to add additional features, give them somme feedback:

Can I use Flex with Adobe Media Encoder to automate encoding?

I am thinking about learning Flex assuming I can do the following.
Can I use Flex to automate the process of converting/encoding videos from many formats to FLV format?
If so, what encoder do I use for this process? Flash media encoder?
Can Flash Media Encoder interface with Flex (PHP/XML/ActionScript) to automatically with presets configuered convert/encode videos that have been uploaded and placed into a folder into FLV format?
Thanks.

Guys,
I have developed a simple script ( batch file *.bat)) that will check if encoding is still being done ( every 60+ secs ) and if the process is over, it will shutdown the PC. I tried to keep the code very very simple so that others can improve it.
For now , i have tested this on Windows 7 SP1 - 64 bits and it wokrs well.
Here is the code, copy and paste it into notepad - i named it AutoPowerOff-AdobeMediaEnCoder.bat
..........copy code below ..........
@echo off
echo.

Possible Media Encoder CS5 BUG???

Since the Media Encoder has no "official" home that I could find on the forum I thought this would be the best place to post this since my videos are exported from After Effects. If it isn't the correct location I apologize.
Here's the issue:
When I encode an H.264 (.MP4) video from a .mov file with Media Encoder CS5 the Data Size and Data Rate attributes do not show up in the Apple QuickTime Movie Inspector. I can convert the exact same video with the CS4 version and it shows up. I've made sure I have all the same settings selected on both versions. I have noticed on the CS5 version there is a new Metadata button next to the "OK" button. I looked at all the properties in there and did not see any feature to enable data rate and data size as if those were metadata features rather than something QuickTime calculates. It must be something that the encoder includes onto the file after compression is complete. Otherwise, why would the Movie Inspector not display that information for only MP4's created with Media Encoder CS5? This is important to me because I put a lot of videos on the web and data rate is extremely important in this process. I've noticed the data rate I specify in the encoder is slightly off from the number I see in QuickTime so I consider QuickTime's number to be more accurate. It would be nice if you could view video properties with the Media Encoder like you can with QuickTime.
This is the setup I've tested on:
Worked
Windows XP AND Windows 7
Adobe Media Encoder CS4
QuickTime Player v7.6.7(1675)
Does Not Work
Windows XP AND Windows 7
Adobe Media Encoder CS5
QuickTime Player v7.6.7(1675)
The process I use each time I compress a video:
A .mov file is handed off to me by one of our "video guys" who uses After Effects
I import the video into Adobe Media Encoder CS4 or CS5
Apply my settings and compress the video
After compression has completed, I play video in QuickTime and view Movie Inspector.
Maybe I'm over looking the setting on CS5 to enable those two features. There's not a whole lot of documentation on this product. Any assistants would be helpful.
Thanks,
Eric

Tim,
Thanks for logging the issue and giving more insight! I tried to research what version of QuickTime I have but couldn't really find a definite answer. I'll take your word for it that I have the 32-bit version. It looks like there is a 64-bit version out there but only for Snow Leopard I think (QuickTime X). Not sure when that will make it to the Windows world if it is true.
If there was some type of "movie inspector" built into AME that would completely eliminate my need for QuickTime. But, I'm sure it would be much easier for you guys at this point to add those two changes to the process already in place that talks to QuickTime. I will definitely put in a request or two for features. I think AME is a great tool now and could also become much more.
If you ever need a tester for newer versions of AME, just give me a shout.
Thanks,
Eric

Exporting to Media Encoder crashes Premiere Pro CC 2014

Greetings,
I am experiencing a problem with premiere off and on. Right now it is an on problem. When I am exporting from Premiere Pro CC (and CC 2014) it will intermittently crash Premiere. I have tried this with several different audio and video formats (AVI [Lagarith and uncompressed], WAV, H.264, MPG2, AAC, etc). At the moment, every time I go to export to queue it locks up and hangs on the "Preparing data for export..." Media Encoder Launches and then it just freezes. I get "Problem Even Name: AppHangB1" over and over. Sometimes a full restart will fix this temporarily and sometimes it goes away for a long while. I managed to get a few sequences exported and then it just kept freezing on every PP CC restart.
Here are my system specs:
Premiere Pro CC (up to date)
Win 7 64bit (up to date)
i7 970
24GB Ram
NVIDIA 470GTX (driver up to date)
3 x 1.5TB internal
4TB internal
3TB internal
12TB RAID 5 via USB 3.0
USB 2.0 and 3.0 drives
FireWire audio device (M-AUDIO FireWire1814)... although, I am not using it for playback. It is connected.
Footage is from C100 H.264 .MTS, H.264.mov from 7D, and H.264 .MOV from iPhone.
All stock video plugins with a few third party audio plugs.
This problem happens with and without third party plugs, but it happens that this project uses them.
I have chatted with Adobe help twice about the matter and nothing has come of it. Log out, log in = same. Restart = same (sometimes), create new user account = same, and so on. The only thing I haven't done is completely re-install premiere, which seems a bit overkill. One of the reps said he would get back to me in a few days after he watched the issue via screen share. Never heard back.
I get the sense that this has something to do with PProHeadless.exe not launching or not running properly. When the crash happens on a fresh restart of PP CC 2014 PProHeadless is not running. I can start PProHeadless and it will send sequence to media encoder. When I try to export another sequence from the same project it crashes and I see another instance of PProHeadless launched.
Also, once the projects are exported to Media Encoder, I can encode them to any format with no problem. The problem is getting the sequences there!
Is there anything that I am overlooking here?
Thanks for the help!

Hi
Premiere pro cc 2014 8.0.1 (21) build
Encoder CC 2014 8.0.1.48
I use CC for Teams so it updates all the time.
Again when I tried to use it today by letting premiere open it by sending an output into Queue it crashed both Encoder and Premiere.
In order to shut down Encoder and Premiere I had to go into Task Manager and "End Process Tree" on everything adobe I could find because just ending Encoder did not work it would not close. I remembered that years ago when Premiere would crash we had to end a photoshop process. I found photoshop open even though it was not "alive" on my task bar. I had used it yesterday but had closed it. I also had to close dynamiclinkmanager.exe *32 as well as one of the three Adobe CDF Helper.exe*32. They popped back on but Encode closed and then I got a message that Premiere needed to close and did when I clicked the button to let it close.
After all this I re-opened Encoder by itself and checked the Preferences finding that Import Sequences Natively option was again checked.
By the way for me, "Launch AME manually, then drag the sequence from PPro's Project panel to AME's Queue (or to a preset in the Preset Browser). That uses a different code path than the File>Export>Media workflow." won't work most of the time because I do live events of panel interviews that may run 2 or more hours. I need to break them down to chapters for the web
Also I know this isn't part of this problem but I and many others would still love dynamiclink to work to Encore because the DVD is not dead yet. The current work path is a drag.
Looks like some programers and engineers have some work to do.
Thanks
Dennis

Open video with Media Encoder on a mac

This may be a super easy noob style question, but here goes.
I'm on a MacPro running OSX 10.9.4, Adobe CC 2014. Whenever I need to convert a video file using Media Converter, I'll right click the file in finder and go to "open with", and can't get finder to recognize AME as a recommended application. It's not a huge deal, because I can select "all applications" instead of just "recommended applications", but that is just such a pain in the buns. Is there any way to get OSX to recognize AME as a "recommended application?" Like I said, not the end of the world by any means and I'm probably just derping up and being a noob, but if anybody knows I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Nonsense.
Apple Compressor has been doing wmf exports for a decade. I have the Quicktime export components from Telestream and they appear as presets in Compressor. They should be available in Media Encoder or they should be importable. Adove apparently refuses to see them. Still trying to figure that out.

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.

Does Media Encoder CC come bundled with After Effects CC?

Hi All
I need to buy Adobe Media Encoder CC but it looks like it only comes bundled with Premiere Pro and I'd prefer After Effects, Both CS6 and CS5 came with Media Encoder, I can't find any information that supports the CC versions, please could someone point me in the right direction?

Yes.

FLV file not opening up in media encoder

I am on a unique job where we are trying to figure out our workflow for video live and on-demand production. Basically, we will be streaming live video during the day and then we would then like to post the video that just went live and have it available in our on-demand archives. For our on-demand, we have to have 3 different flv files at 3 different bitrates since we have no idea what our audience's individual computer/internet can handle.
Because we are doing a high volume of video for this job over the course of two weeks, I am trying to streamline our workflow so that my editors don't have to deal with long hours of babysitting a computer while it is encoding. Because we have to go from injesting DV footage, then exporting QT, and compressor to make it a H.264 file since Media Encoder cannot read FCP QT files, and then into media encoder to make it to flv. That is a lot of steps to be taking. We also have lots of other things to edit aside from the live material.
We ourselves are sending out the video live on line, so permission is not an issue and we are not ripping off things off of big network websites at all. You see, the video is encoding as it is going out and I found a way to record the flv video and maintain it in flv format. However, we would just like to trim the heads and tails for the on-demand version as well create two other flv versions with a different bit rate.
For some reason, when I open the flv file that we recorded, media encoder does not see anything. I took that same test flv file and put it in three different media players/compression software. The flv opens in media streamclip, Adobe Media Player, and Sorensen Squeeze, so I don't understand why you don't see anything when it is in Media Encoder.
I was even able to trim and re-compress the recorded flv to a lower bitrate flv file. I don't really want to use Sorensen because I tested versus Media Encoder and it is really slow compared to Media Encoder. Can someone help me?
Thanks in advanced.
Michelle

I don't think that Adobe's Media Encoder can open FLV files at all, it only creates them.
Alternatively you can use some of the tools below to top & tail your videofiles:
- After Effects CS4
- Premiere CS4
- RichFLV (www.richapps.de)
Regarding workflow, have you looked into Adobe's Flash Media Encoding Server?
