Adobe Encore CS5 Startup Problems

I was recently finished editing a project in Premiere Pro CS5 and decided to burn it onto a disk to see how it would look, but as I tried to open up Encore it wouldn't open and this mesage would appear:
"The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configurations is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail."
Basically, the Encore that came with my purchase of Adobe Premiere Pro CS5, will not work or start up. Please help me with this as I have a project due very soon that needs to be burnt onto a disk. Thank-You!!!

Restart your system and try this again.
System restart will resolve this issue.
Thanks,

  • Adobe Encore CS5 quality problems on output

    Why do my video files become pixelized and shaky after i burn my dvd? why do i get a degradation of colors?????
    my transcode settings are: 7mb 2 pass VBR
    Are there any other solutions????

    Sir,
    What i did i the following:
    I exported pal quicktimes from final cut pro, the quality is great when looking at the quicktime uncompressed. when u see the uncompressed scaled quicktime it is very good.
    than i imported the quicktimes to Encore, and transcode them in Encore.
    the transcoding is our problem, we are working in pal 720x576 25fps.
    this is before
    this is after
    Look at the sharpness of the fonts.
    our main problem is the degradation of colors it looks like ripples it's very ugly.

  • Very poor video quality after transcoding in Adobe Encore CS5.1

    MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
    I have very poor video quality after transcoding the video file (MPEG) in  Adobe Encore CS5.1. Below you see my used settings in my filmproject.
    The problem exists after transcoding in Adobe Encore CS5.1. I checked all steps and found out that there is no problem until transcoding. My exported file  in MPEG has very good video and audio quality.
    Facts:
    1. Camcorder: Panasonic AG-AC160AEJ
    Operating System : Windows 7, 64 Bit, Ultimate edition
    Source files: MTS files
    Recording settings (clip settings):
    Type: MPEG Movie
    Image Size: 1920 x 1080
    Frame Rate: 25,00
    Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
    Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1,0
    2. Sequence settings in Premiere Pro
    Sequence was created from Clip directly with settings above.
    3. Exporting settings in Adobe Premiere Pro:
    Match sequence settings was activated. Now other changes were set.
    4. Exported File:
    Video
    Image Size: 1920 x 1080
    Data Transfer Rate: 25920 kBit / s
    Frame rate: 25
    Audio:
    Bit rate: 384 kBit / s
    Channels: 2 (stereo)
    Frequence: 48 kHz
    5. Transcoding settings in Adobe Encore:
    I used different transcoding settings such as automatic DVD Transcoding, CBR and VBR.I also set “use maximum render quality”. But all results were always the same: very poor quality.
    Why does the encore transcoding cause such bad video quality?
    How can I solve this problem?
    Please help me soon.
    Best regards.

    Hi Ann,
    1) I did not only „Automatic (based on source)“ options in my tests, but also many other customized options.
    The results are very poor. I have done a new test with the following settings. The result is also poor:
    Download link: http://www.klavierlehrer-bayern.de/download/test_mpeg2dvd_1.m2v
    Export Settings:
    Format: MPEG2-DVD
    Preset: Custom
    Codec: MainConcept MPEG Video, Quality: 5
    Frame Rate: 25 fps
    Field Order: Upper
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: Automatic (based on source)
    Render at Maximum Rate: [active]
    Bitrate Encoding: VBR, 2 pass
    Minimum Bitrate (Mbps): 5
    Target Bitrate (Mbps): 9
    Maximum Bitrate (Mbps): 9
    GOP Settings
    M Frames: 4
    N Frames: 12
    Use Maximum Render Quality: [active]
    Multiplexer: None
    2) Why shouldn’t I use the “Match Sequence Settings” in exporting? Because of the big output file size?
    I used it and the results are very good as I expected:
    Download link: http://www.klavierlehrer-bayern.de/download/test_MatchSequenceSettings.mpeg
    Export Settings
    Match Sequence Settings [selected]
    1920 x 1080, 25 fps, Upper, Quality 50
    User Maximum Render Quality: [active]
    3) I tried also Dynamic Link in PremierePro (to Encore).
    The results are also poor.
    4) I will test also LagarithLoslessCodec and frameserving +DGMPGDec. But the video is vertical long drawn-ot.
    I think I did not use it correctly. 
    Regards

  • Freeware menus for Adobe Encore CS5 ?

    Where can I find freeware menus for Adobe Encore CS5 ?
    There are not many to choose from in the program

    I'm still a little confused, but that may be because you are having an odd problem.
    What I think is the case now is that you were in fact missing the library.  You added the library to your system, and you do now find the files and directories in the Adobe/...whatever.../Encore/ directories. (Are you on a Mac? For some reason I got that idea, and was unsure how that would affect this.)
    You do not say that you added these using the insturctions at:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408826.html
    and I do not know if the files are "registered" in any way. I believe they are not. If they are in the directories, then Encore will use them.
    You do not say that you checked and the location in Encore preferences points to the location where you put the files. The fact that you now see the categories (the folder names) while you are running Encore, however, suggests that it is pointed to the right place.
    BUT, when you click on one of those categories, none of the templates are there. It is as if you have the folders in the Encore library, but no files inside the folders (or the extensions are wrong).
    Do I have this right?

  • Adobe Encore CS6 loading problem

    Every time i leave my app and come right back into working on my project, a few seconds in my cursors gives me the apple loading symbol. Why does this happen? it slows down the process so much. As long as im in the app working theres no problem but the second i leave the program and come back to work it gives me the loading symbol again. Its becoming a annoyance.
    I use a mac osx 10.8.4 procesor 2ghz intel core i7 with 8gb of ram
    im able to do all my video editing and photo editing fine except with adobe encore (loading cursor problem)

    I would first look at Encore Edit -> Preferences -> Memory. May be swapping out memory. 8 Gig RAM is not all that much.

  • Adobe Encore CS5 Help!

    When I try to run Adobe Encore CS5, I get this message. adobe encore cs5 cannot run in a non royalty serialized mode. Anyone know a fix? I really need to get some DVDs authorized. Thanks.

    Great news, and a belated welcome to the forum.
    Usually, Adobe Dynamic Link works perfectly. However, there are times, when things just do not go, as they should. Doing the Export>Import is usually fail-safe,so long as one chooses to Export to a format, that Encore loves. Yes, that is the "old fashion way," but until one can determine why ADL is not functioning, it just works.
    Good luck,

  • Adobe Encore CS5.1 producing DVDs with flickering video

    Hey all, new to the forums but been using Adobe software for a couple of years now.
    I've got Encore CS5.1 as part of the Adobe Master Collection CS5.5, and recently I've been using it to burn DVD videos.
    I made a video in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 a few weeks ago and rendered it as an mp4 file in h.264 HDTV 24fps (video recorded with my Nikon D3200 D-SLR). I then imported the mp4 file into Encore as an asset (I didn't use Dynamic Link to insert the prproj file into Encore) and burned it onto a 4.7GB DVD (no menus or anything, just a simple DVD) and it looked absolutely fine on both my PC and on the TV and the recipient of the DVD was very happy with the result. The video was 28 minutes long and 6.2GB in size.
    Recently I have been making more videos in Premiere Pro CS5.5 and attempting to burn them onto DVDs using Encore CS5.1, but I've not been having so much luck.
    Whenever I create a DVD with Encore, the video playback is always a bit 'flickery' no matter how I import the video into Encore (have tried using both Dynamic Link and importing the mp4 file as an asset - both result in the same problem). The video playback results in flickering lines and it's really distracting. Again, I am rendering in mp4 h.264 HDTV 24fps and burning onto 4.7GB DVDs. If I watch the video in Encore on the Monitor, it also looks a bit flickery with lines showing. The video I am trying to burn onto a DVD is 25 minutes long and 4GB (but Encore transcodes it so it's just over 1GB in size I think).
    I am also trying to burn another video onto a DVD which again is rendered in h.264 but is 48 minutes and 11GB in size (Encore transcodes it so it's about 2.5GB) and the same thing happens: flickery lines which is really distracting.
    I did briefly have a trial version of CS6 installed and I rendered the video again in Premiere Pro CS6 and tried burning to a DVD using Encore CS6, but still got the same results. I don't have CS6 now, I installed it purely to see if CS5.5 was the problem.
    I don't understand why the first video I burned to DVD using Encore was perfect and now it seems to be giving me flickery video once it's burned to a DVD whenever I use it.
    I have updated it to version 5.1.0.342 which at the time of writing is the latesrt version of CS5.1.
    If anybody out there could help me that would be great, thanks!

  • Hidden network drives "home" and "net" shown in folder view Adobe Bridge CS5 / Lion Problem

    Updated to Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion and got this "problem":
    The hidden network drives "home" and "net" shown in folder view Adobe Bridge CS5 (unlike in 10.6 Snow Leopard).
    Normally these network drives are hidden (in Finder and other Apps) - but Adobe Bridge CS5 is showing them, despite "show hidden files" is unchecked in Adobe Bridge.
    Not a dramatic "bug", but it also shouldn't be a big problem for Adobe Bridge engineers to solve this. My first question to the Adobe Support was answered like: "we don't know what Apple did change, so we cannot do anything". Hmmm, are you serious?
    I tried to resolve that problem by myself but failed. So, if an Adobe engineer is reading this post: perhaps Adobe Bridge is ignoring the automounter master map (that was my approach to resolve it):
    # Automounter master map
    +auto_master                    # Use directory service
    /net           -hosts                 -nobrowse,hidefromfinder,nosuid
    /home                                        auto_home       -nobrowse,hidefromfinder
    /Network/Servers               -fstab
    /-                              -static
    You cannot do anything to these folders, so it is not a serious issue, but, I mean, did someone at Adobe check compatibiliy with 10.7 and ignored this issue? If so, are there an other issues ignored?
    But I guess, the compatibilty update for Bridge CS5 for Lion is Bridge CS6 - to be fair: I also have to say, that in general Bridge is running okay on Mac OS X 10.7.2 (but could be better, as always;)

    Hi Curt Y,
    thanks for your answer! Yes you' re right, I forgot to mention that ... before I posted here, I sent a bug report via the Apple Bug Report webpage about the issue ... of course, here are 2 parties involved.
    I had a similiar problem once and I got a meesage back from Apple: "that it is a 3rd party problem, sorry" (it was about color management).
    I am just a user and I often feel very strange about Apple's (topsecret) communication behaviour ... Whatever, what do I know about software engineering? - Right.
    Maybe someone on this forum has an idea, because I'm afraid, thus it is not a serious bug, no one would take care about it in the next time (during my research I found an older post here on the forum about the same problem ...).
    thanks for help in advance,

  • Adobe photoshop cs5 stroke problems

    Dear Adobe Team,
    We are using adobe Photoshop CS5 in our HP Workstation machine, but since we changed our OS in windows 7 we are facing stroke problems.
    Like whenever we draw a straight stroke than it does not go straight it becomes curve type. Please find the below attached image of stroke.
    We are using cintiq Pen display & HP z420 workstation.
    So requesting you to kindly provide the solution ASAP

    Well, works perfectly here... (PSElements 6 “Mac”)...
    Select your image or specify an area...
    Go to Filter / Render / Lighting Effect.../ and specify your desired options...
    If that doesn’t work, delete the preference file...
    If that doesn’t work either, you might have to reinstall PS Elements...
    Regards

  • Encore CS5 Menu Problems

    Allow me to begin by saying thank you in advance for any and all help. Please know I am a marine biologist first and a video editor second so I'll apologize for my elementary questions.
    2011 macbook pro, 8gb ram, all working files (connected assets) are on the hard drive, Panasonic BD burner connected firewire 800, Encore CS5
    This is a blu-ray project.
    I have created a movie that has only 2 menus. The main menu and a chapter selction menu.
    The menus have a video file playing in the background with text generated from the video editor appearing 10 seconds in. This menu is very basic...video background with 3 buttons overlayed on top placed where the text appears. Of these buttons, one plays the main movie, another plays a behind the scenes, and the last directs the user to the chapter selection menu.
    The video files for the menu background were transcoded in Media Manager to Blu-ray h.264 and imported assets as .m4v video and .ac3 audio.
    The actual movie files are also imported in this same manner and are working fine.
    Preview works fine except where indicated below in the form of the background video being in poor quality.
    Problem:
    When the disc is inserted into a blu-ray player, the main menu background video looks worse than standard def videos. At the loop point set for the buttons to "appear and activate" (10sec) the video freezes, screen turns black for just a split second (literally, split second) then re-appears normally with all buttons working fine, the video plays accordingly but is still in bad quality. The buttons work as supposed to and the movies they're connected to are brilliantly played in blu-ray quality without any problems.
    On the chapter selection menu, the same applys to the background  video where it plays in poor quality but the problem here is again at the loop point but has a different action. At the time of the loop point (again 10sec) the video stops, then jumps back to the beginning of the Chapter menu and starts over again. It does this over and over, never allowing me to get to the buttons for chapter selection. It just loops back to the beginning of the same menu. The only way to stop this is to press the main menu button on the remote to get back to the main menu.
    So...2 things:
    1) howcome the background videos in the menus are in bad quality? Do know in the preview, the background videos are in the good quality sometimes. In other words, when I press the preview, sometimes the videos are shown in good quality, and sometimes they're not. I onced "fixed" it when it previewed in poor quality by disconnecting the wip to the asset, then reconnecting it. It played fine in the preview once but then the next time I previewed it, it was in poor quality.
    2) why are there 2 different glitches at the loop points on the menus. Both menus are identical in properties, not in asset connections. As a matter of fact, the chapter menu was created by copy/pasting the main menu, changing the assets, and using more buttons (these buttons were also copy/paste from the main menu buttons but have different links). Also know that in preview, the loop points work just fine and the buttons appear without a problem, but the video quality is diminished as with the main menu.
    2 Burn processes tried and have identical problems:
    I created discs using 2 methods and the problems are identical in both. I burned a blu-ray disc directly from Encore which exhibited these problems. I also made a folder and burned the BDMV file in Toast Titanium Pro 10 and also have these same identcal problems. I did make an .iso file also, but don't know how to test that on a blu-ray disc. I am using BD-RE discs so that I don't waste a lot of money.
    Please help. I am in crunch time and have less than 2 weeks to complete this and get 100 discs burned.
    Thank you again for reading this and for any and all help.
    Charlie

    Hi Charlie,
    about loop point frezees (black video), no way out, sorry: this is an Encore CS5 bug and we all are waiting for the brand new CS5.5.
    Jon Jeddes has tried to find a solution with other sws support but he met lot of difficulties.
    About your low definition results, it could depend by many things.
    Don't know Media Manager, but, usually, low definitions are related to low bitrates (check yours are at least 25 Mb per second).
    Hope this will help.
    Ciao

  • Adobe Encore CS5 (Mac) crashes when I create a new project

    Hey everyone,
    I am running Mac OS X Lion (10.7.3) on a MacBook Pro (Spring 2011).
    I just installed Encore CS5 fresh off my Master Collection CS5 DVD. When I open Encore and start a new project, once I have my settings configured, I click OK. It waits a few seconds, then Encore crashes. Adobe Application Manager sees no updates available (so no bug fixes, apparently?). What's the use if I can't even start a brand new project?
    I know my details are vague, but if anyone needs additional information, let me know and we'll try to get this solved.
    Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

    Are you saying that you did not install the whole MC? Have you installed at least Premiere and Adobe Media Encoder?
    I wnder if there is an install issue. Encore is only provided with Premiere, and I don't know what happens if it is installed without it.
    If that is not it, look at this. It is not specific to Encore, but may be relevant.

  • Adobe Illustrator CS5 groups problem.

    I work under windows xp using Adobe Illustrator CS5, and the problem is that when I group a certain objects in an illustration and save that illustration as an *.ai file, then send it to a client that uses MAC the groups are getting jumbled up. The client even sent me a screenshots, and the groups are REALLY jumbled up.
    Some objects that i originally grouped together are not in the same group any more, some objects from a certain group that, somehow became part of some other group.
    I build my images on one layer with several sublayers.
    Can building illustrations with every single group on a separate layer solve this problem? Am I missing something? This is the first time I encounter this kind of problem. Please help.

    I don't ever recall this occurring but it sounds like a corruption to me. But I do not know if is on your end or your clients end.
    I use a mac and am will to open your file and send you screen shots so you can compare, if I open it fine then the problem is probably with your client?
    But they might not like to here this.
    You can also try sending them a pdf or a .ps file they can open the .ps file directly in AI without distilling it.

  • Encore CS5 transcoding problem

    I am using Win7 and trying to create a DVD in Encore CS5, using AVI files created in Prem Pro and can view in Monitor or Preview windows ok. When I transcode and then view in Monitor or Preview window the display simply displays as all horizontal green lines, best described as noise. It could be a field dominance problem...Has anyone had this ?. I am using PAL DV transcodes with Lower field first and have tried reloading all software on a computer with different graphics card etc...same result!. This has previously worked for me using Encore CS2 

    Can you give us the Export settings on those DV-AVI files? Should be pretty plain-vanilla, but let's get that out of the way first.
    Also, are those files muxed, i.e. combined Audio and Video?
    If so, try with elemental/elementary streams, i.e. one Audio-only PCM/WAV (or fully-DVD-compliant DD AC3) @ 48KHz 16-bit, and the one DV-AVI Video-only. Import that DV-AVI Video-only file as a Timeline, and the PCM/WAV as an Asset. In En, just drag the WAV from the Project Panel to the appropriate Timeline, where it will snap into place. Test this workflow.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
