Media encoder status error CS4

I cant get my CS4 projects to encode!
Media encoder gives me a status error. (yellow triangle in the status column) When I open the text file I get:
- Source File: C:\Users\Andrew\AppData\Local\Temp\denis final CS4_1.prproj
- Output File: E:\Sequence 01.wav
- Preset Used: Windows Waveform 48kHz 16-bit
- Video:
- Audio:
- Bitrate:
- Encoding Time: 649:51:33
8/25/2009 9:10:49 AM : Encoding Failed
Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted.
Other info:
-Vista 64bit,
-Adobe creative Suite CS4. Premiere CS4 4.1.0
-It wont encode anything, I've tried a few projects, the above one was an export of audio timeline.
-The project "denis final CS4.prproj" is actually in my "E:" drive
-A renamed project called "denis final CS4_1.prproj" (created by CS4 I assume) does in fact exist in "C:\Users\Andrew\AppData\Local\Temp\"
-I am unable to deactivate Premiere CS4 . It allows me to deactivate successfully, but comes up active next time I run.
Any ideas?
thanks,
Andy

Here's what I get after a few minutes of being in the encoder. Nothing actually starts encoding:
- Source File: /Users/user/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems/Wedding.prproj
- Output File: /Users/user/Video/Projects/Wedding/DVD/_Wedding.mpg
- Preset Used: Export Widescreen DVD 7Mbps CBR

- Bitrate:
- Encoding Time: 00:12:19

Is there an error code in there?

Thanks

Exporting in Adobe Media Encoder fails in CS4 after CS3 is removed.

There's an issue with Adobe Media Encoder in CS4 where encoding will fail after CS3 is uninstalled.
If you never had CS3 installed on your machine - no problem.
If you never had CS3 and CS4 installed at the same time - no problem.
If you had CS3 and CS4 installed concurrently, then uninstalled CS3 - Houston, you have a problem.
You will need to uninstall CS4 and then reinstall CS4.
The error message is:
Encoding Failed
Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted.
One more thing I forgot to mention, this is a Win-only issue.

>Does anyone understand this?
Simple:
1. Open a Windows Explorer window and navigate to the folder that contains "dynamiclinkmanager.exe"
2. Open a
second Windows Explorer window and navigate to the folder that contains "Premiere.exe"
3. Arrange the windows side by side.
4. Right-click on "Premiere.exe" and drag to the first explorer window, targeting between the files so as to avoid any specific file.
5. Release the right-hand mouse button.
6. Select "create shortcut here" from the pop-up menu.

MEDIA ENCODER crash error: c:ame820_win\releases\external\adobe\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\ PLEASE HELP

WORKSTATION HP Z600
XEON E5645 12GB RAM NVIDIA QUADRO 2000 WIN 8.1 64bit
BLACKMAGIC DESIGN ULTRASTUDIO SDI
good morning,
I have some problems with premiere pro cc 2014 release 2
the most important is that Media Encoder crashes and the following error:
c:ame820_win\releases\external\adobe\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\
The second problem is that when I open the software you group all the windows on one side.
Does anyone know what I need to do to solve these two problems?
please help
Andrea

I do have a 64 bit OS - Win 7. The RAM does provide a noticable difference in performance - things are much more "snappy" now, which I'm enjoying, but hasn't eliminated my problem.
The encoder does not stop at the same point, it seems to be quite random. I can view the files that I've exported (up until the point they cut off) and there's nothing going on in the clip that would be any sort of red flag - in other words, it is not stopping the coding at a point where a new color correction or title is being introduced, it had all happened previously. This is my first large project on CS4, and I don't have anything else to export at the moment!
I'm not running premiere in multi-monitor mode: I've got a 24" widescreen monitor that is my sole monitor.
I have COMBED the interwebs trying to find a resolution to this issue, and I am no where... I'm currently installing CS4 on a XP machine that I have that is pretty robust, and am going to try encoding on that, just to see if I get a different result.
Any suggestions at all would be MOST appreciated!
Thanks!

Adobe Media Encoder cs6 error 0xc000007b

Recently i installed Adobe Media Encoder CS6 , on start it showing application unable to start due this error 0xc000007b, please resolve ASAP, if anybody knows.

I just want to make sure anyone with the same problem who comes across this thread is made aware of some things to try and at least one solution that has worked for multiple people...
As the Adobe Staff member here mentioned, the 0xc000007b error usually has to do with a 32-bit/64-bit confusion on the machine. More specifically, as someone stated in a Windows forum: "this error is most likely a result of a 32-bit (x86) executable trying to load a 64-bit (x64) DLL."

What has worked for others is copy & pasting the msvcr100.dll & msvcr80.dll files from the After Effects Support Files folder to the folder of the app that is giving this error (usually Media Encoder or Premiere Pro or Lightroom). It was mentioned several times in the threads below, and worked for me as well...

Adobe media encoder export error "writer not found"

When trying to export to wmv using adobe media encoder I get an export error of "writer not found". I did a search and found others having the same issue with no fix as far as I can see. Just wondering if anyone has any more iformation on this. I'm using Vista Ultimate and Premiere CS3.
Thanks

I registered the WMEncoderHelper.exe file with regserv, but I still get
the "writer not found error". I wish I knew what codec it is trying to find and use.

Adobe Media Encoder .. und CS4

Hallo liebe Adobler und Adobemacher,
ich muss jetzt gerade mal meinen Frust loswerden. Vorsichtig ausgedrückt:
Kotze seit Tagen mal mehr, mal weniger auf CS4 ab - und heute abend ist das Maß voll!!!!!
Habe den Megastress heute gehabt, möchte zum Abschluss ein leckeres Mpeg-1 aus Premiere exportieren,
was in der Version 2 nur ein paar Klicks war.
Naja, Media Encoder. Nun ja. Nachdem ich meine Einstellungen für Video und Audio gemacht habe, stelle ich fest,
dass das Mpeg-1 Multiplexing zwar einzustellen ist, aber bei der Übergabe sich verdammt noch mal immer wieder
auf "None" zurücksetzt. Also als Ausgabe Audio und Video seperat. Und die Erkenntnis, dass die Sch... sich immer
wieder zurücksetzt kostete mich jedesmal 2h Compositingzeit.
Sorry an der Stelle wegen den Gefühlsausbrüchen, aber das Problem war definitiv vorher nicht vorhanden, bzw. die Lösung
dafür ist mit einem lustigen Trick verbunden.
Für weiteres Comp sind zwei seperate Files ja willkommen, aber nicht für eine Preview beim Kunden, bei dem bei dem Format mpv oder mpa
ein Mega-Fragezeichen wächst.
Ok hab ich mir dann in der Not gesagt - exportier den Krams schön als Targa und Wave PCM und Comp die zwei Streams in nem
Programm, dass nicht so Zicken macht. Renderzeit wieder 1:37 h.
Beim Durchsehen sind mir etliche Fehler in den Einzelbilder aufgefallen, als ob bei verschiedenen Skalierungen von Footages AntialiazingFehler
aufgetreten sind. Fazit: Export wieder für die Tonne. Anscheinend Hat der Wegwünschenswerte Mediaexporter Probleme mit dem TGA-Export.
(Versteh eh nicht bis heute, warum man hier immer noch nicht die RLE-Kompr. wie bei AE aktivieren kann).
ALso nochmal ein Exportversuch mit BMP - Antializing- oder Skalierungsfehler sind weg. Mal sehen, was mich noch für Überraschungen
erwartet.
Die Probleme sind mit CS2 definit nicht aufgetreten. Warum ist z.B. die Funktion Doppelklick + STRG = Neues Dokument in Photoshop CS4
nicht mehr vorhanden, oder Rechtsklick auf den Dokumentenrahmen=Bildgröße etc.?????
Mag sein, dass man alles irgendwie einstellen kann - aber dann bin ich mal gespannt wo sich die Knöpfe verstecken
Gruß,
frustrierter LS

I could really use some help on this . . .
Could it be a codec is missing or something?
Does anyone know of another way I can get help if not from here?
Thanks.

Media Encoder: "Unknown Error" : one solution

Queued encoding out of Premiere CS5.02 into the Adobe-updated Media Encoder 5.0.1 was giving "Unknown Error" messages (not particularly helpful) and failing to encode properly.
I re-installed the 5.0.0.402 version off my install disc (chose Premiere, then unchecked everything except Media Encoder) and that ran the queue again- no changes to compression settings, file settings or anything. Identical files, just earlier version of Media Encoder.
All 6 queued files compressed without error.
Except that now the sound was out of sync. Checked Premiere, and somehow, despite me being absolutely sure I only ticked "Encoder" on the re-install, it had reverted to 5.0 with its AIFF sync bug.
I then ran the DOWNLOADED 5.02 Premiere patch (NOT the Adobe Updater one which causes my Premiere to lose its extra compression settings and be unable to open previously saved CS5 projects- see here for more info).
Things now function fine.
This for me so far is the standout feature of my CS5 upgrade: bugs, flaky updaters, horrendous support, and a need to either revert updates or apply them in particular ways.
I wish you all better times.

Can you clarify what your problem is?
Is it that you need the 5.02 update to fix the AIFF sync issue, but that then breaks Media Encoder?
If so, you'll need to re-install Media Encoder. For me, this was choosing Premiere on my CS5 installer and deselecting everything except Media Encoder, but it seemed still to revert Premiere to v5.0 so I then had to run the *downloaded* Premiere 5.02 update.
Do not allow the Adobe Updater to update Media Encoder or you'll hit the same problem again.
If your issue was actually something else, then let me know!

Media Encoder installation error

Every time I've try to export from Premiere Media Encoder gives me this error message that says: Installation error - please ensure this product have been installed properly.
I have reinstalled Premiere but the same thing happens afterwards.
Anyone knows what the problem could be?
I've got the latest version of both OSX and Premiere and sitting on the new Mac Pro.

AE GP Plugin Media IO Plugin Error - CS4

Certain codec choices in render are giving me this error - MPEG 2 being one of them. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Penny

Penny: The most likely reason why you would get this error is: You pick a distribution format for export (H264, MPEG-2, Flash Video, etc) that takes you to the Adobe Media Encoder window. There, you set up things from a preset that requires a certain frame size for export... but that frame size doesn't match the frame size in AE's own Output Module (in the Render Queue). I personally hope that could be automated someday, because it is cumbersome and confusing. But meanwhile here's what you should do - when you pick settings in AME, you'll see a comment field (see attached picture). That comment instructs you how you should change yourself the frame size or stretch settings in AE's Output Module when you return to it from the AME window, so they match the required settings.
Could this be the problem?

Stop Media Encoder Compositing error? - HELP!

I am queing a sequence from Premiere Pro CC to Media Encoder. Its a composite of a subject on a green screen keyed background with some slide overlays.
When the sequence is rendered there is an odd 'cropping' effect on the slide portion of the video.
Where it should look like this
This happens throughout the entire sequence, in multiple sequences. There is no crop effect of any kind applied to the footage, the entire sequence will play out just fine from inside the timeline, the effect only shows up when rendered through AME.
When I stop AME from using OpenCL and render using Software only the problem appears to be resolved. But I definitely don't like the idea of investing so much CASH in GPU acceleration if Encoder can't effectively take advantage of it. Frustrating.
Anyone seen familiar with a fix for this kind of problem!? Thanks

This began happening to me after a recent update to my AME CC version. I found that I could rendered directly from Premier Pro CC through the export function.
It apparently has to do with 3-d memory adresses. I was doing a scene with talent over a keyed out green screen and a CGI stage set in the background. About two thirds of the background was not rendering, even after I made sure the size requirement for the graphic elements was correct.
I would be interested incomments from someone at Adobe about this situation, we cannot be th eonly ones.
Oh, I am running hardware acceleration on the open GL and have 18 gigs of memory on the motherboard. 3.2 GHZ eight core procesor.

Serious error when Exporting to Media Encoder Premier Pro CS4

Hi I have a 64 bit HP7900 16 GB memory and Vista Home premium edition
I have taken the automatic upgrades and it has completely screwed over my Premier Pro CS4 making it unusable.
I decided to co back to version 4 and installed everything again.
Now I cant export to Media Encodet.
All my driver are up to date and I am using scratch disks.
Error message enclose.
My business is now shout down can anyone please urgently help me
Thanks
Nick

A number of people have been bitten by an update bug. When updating to 4.1 some have been reverted to trial status, losing all MPEG capabilities. Mostly this is caused by having had a trial version earlier or a faulty installation to start with. The only workable solution is to completely uninstall, run the Clean Script utility 2 or 3 times, reinstall and then reapply the updates. Cumbersome and time consuming, but the only solution.
Look in the Adobe KB for info on the Clean Script CS4 utility.

Media Encoder (compilation error)

grande difficulté pour exporter mes vidéo faites à partir d'images fixes de grande résolution !
le processus s’interrompt au bout d'un temps variable avec le message COMPILATION ERROR non déterminé ,

Depuis quel(s) logiciel(s) réalisez vous ces exports ?
Quelles sont les dimensions et le format des images incriminées ?
Pouvez-vous anticiper un redimensionnement (dans Photoshop) en amont pour les passer 1. en 72dpi 2. à leur plus grande taille finale et ainsi limiter la charge mémoire ?

Can i upgrade media encoder only from cs4 to cs6?

I have a production studio licence.
thanks in advance

Ok thanks for the update...do you know of any other goid 3rd party apps for encoding that support cuss?
