Adobe Media Encoder can´t render out AE Ray-Trace Composition

Hey,
AME can´t render out my composition (or sequence if i include the comp in a PP sequence) which includes some 3D stuff.
I am able to render it out in AE in a few minutes, preview it easily in AE and even in PP but i´m not able to render it out in AME or PP.
AME says it would take like 10+ Hours to render it and doesn´t come to an end.
I tried multiple encoding settings but nothing worked.
Also i checked, that cuda rendering is enabled in all my Adobe programs, but nothing helped...
AE File .aep :
Dropbox - Twitch Infovideo.aep
AME .epr Preset for encoding :
Dropbox - Media Encoder Error Test.epr
Thanks for helping,
Johannes

It raises another question: what settings do I need to encode the comp in 720p resolution without taking up lots of space?
Well, it depends on whether you need a production master (something for broadcast, for example, or to use as a source for other encoding tasks) or if you want a version for distribution. If it's the former, there's nothing wrong with "lots of space" - A Quicktime file with PNG or Animation codec is a good idea, but it will take a lot of space. If it's the latter, H264 is perfect but there's no built-in preset to take 720 material to the web.
You could do this:
* Pick the generic H264 template. You'll see that it will give an error if you attempt to render, because the default setting uses an H264 profile/level which doesn't let you use HD resolutions.
* In the H264 video options, set the "Profile" menu to "Main" and "Level" to 4.0. That will keep it compatible to Quicktime and Flash player, while allowing larger frame sizes and higher bit rates.
* Set Target Bitrate to 5-8 Mbps and Maximum Bitrate to 9-10 Mbps if you're targetting web delivery. That's a bit over what Apple uses for 720p content on the Apple TV, for example.
The H264 original preset will instruct you in the comment field to stretch to 640x480 in Output Module. There's no need, since you are using a profile/level combination which allows higher frame sizes.

  • Premiere/Media Encoder can't render/export after 10.9.3 update.  Any Answers?

    My computer ran the OSX 10.9.3 update a couple nights ago, and suddenly Premiere/Media Encoder can not export.  It just freezes up the computer until I cold crash it.  Same if I try to render a timeline in Premiere.  This issue just started yesterday.  It still persists after wiping my hard drive and doing a clean install of everything, which of course just put 10.9.3 back on there.  This issue does not exist on my laptop that has not been updated yet.  However, I have enough work and not enough time to be trying to edit everything on my laptop while this get worked out.  Has anyone else got this issue in the past day or two?

    Hey Todd,
    I had two active projects that suddenly could not render/export.  One is quite massive and has RG Colorista quite a bit throughout it, however I could not export a timeline without any plugins on it.  The other project is also clean of plugins.  Then I started a new project and it went out just fine until I put the RG plugin on it.  But here is my newest glitch.  I just made a change to an old show and all of my titles done in Title Tool were resized and positioned.  Blown up and shifted to the right.  If I take the same file and put it on my laptop which still has not got 10.9.3, they are just fine.  Scaled properly and centered between title safe.  But now on 10.9.3 they are blown up and going off the screen.

  • Adobe Media Encoder Does Not Get out of wait state

    Processor: Intel Core(TM)2 Quad CPU queue 6600 At 2.40 GH Z
    Memory:  8.00 GB
    System Type:     64 – bit Operating System
    Operating System:      Microsoft System 7 Ultra
    When transferring a 1 min. 11 second video from Adobe Premier Pro 5.5 to Adobe Media Encoder 5.5, the file sits in the Media Encoder for hours in the wait state and never completes.
    All my Adobe software is up-to-date. How can I remedy this problem?

    The status "Waiting" indicates that the job is ready to be encoded. As of CS5.5, AME by default does not start processing the Queue automatically. Instead, it waits for you to start encoding by clicking the Start Queue button in the upper right corner of the window--it looks like the Play button on a media player or editing app. Watch folders are an exception to this rule: jobs that come in via watched folders start automatically by default.
    You have the option of having AME start encoding automatically. To enable this, check the "Start queue automatically when idle for <n.n> minutes" and set the desired wait period.

  • I can't choose Adobe Media Encoder when rendering to video in photoshop

    I am trying to export an animation in Photoshop CC.
    Under Render to Video, the dialog box does not allow me to choose "Adobe Media Encoder" (it is greyed out)
    Why is that?
    I have Adobe Media Encoder CS6 and CC.
    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, photoshop cc doesn't support video on mac os x 10.6.8 and that's why you not able to export using the Adobe Media Encoder.

  • How's Adobe Media Encoder CS5 working for you?

    This is the first thread on the new Adobe Media Encoder forum, so I thought that it would be appropriate to open it up by just asking a general question:
    How is Adobe Media Encoder CS5 working for you?
    Please be sure to install the Adobe Media Encoder CS5 (5.0.1) update. Instructions for updating are included in this post about the Premiere Pro CS5 (5.0.2) update.
    If you're having a specific problem that you want help with, or if you have a specific question, please start your own thread on this forum. This thread is intended for general feedback about how Adobe Media Encoder CS5 is working out for you.

    First of all IT IS GREAT and I use it a lot I also used the CS4 version before!
    But I have to report two issues about version CS5:
    1. I bought the English version of the production premium CS5 but I have a German operating system (win7 64bit) all other adobe application are in English except Adobe Media Encoder it shows up in German language! Not a show stopper but should be fixed.
    2. Recently I wanted to encode a video into an h264. I made some custom settings for that and the encoded video played very stuttered in Microsoft Media Player 12 (like 12fps instead of 25fps [settings were set correct in AME]) but fine in Quicktime and VLC Player (execpt for the gamma bug but that's an other story...)
    I did a lot of testings and found the issue! Sometimes when you change a lot of the h264 settings (don't know when it happens exactly) Media Encoder seems to not set the fps correctly allthough AME shows 25fps in it's settings this setting is not encoded into the final file!
    Quicktime and VLC seems not to care about the missing information but Windows Media Player gets confused.
    It does not happens when using a preset in AME it only happens when changing a lot and using custom settings!
    You can see the missing fps setting when right clicking the encoded file and choose properties (german:Eigenschaften) switch the tap to Details and there is no fps setting in the stuttering files but when encoded with a preset in AME there is the correct 25fps setting!
    I have attached a screenshots to demonstrate it:
    My workaround so far was to choose a preset with 25fps and close to my desired settings and change as few as possible - Fingers crosses and with a chance of 3/4 I was able to encode a working file containing the fps setting in it which plays perfect in Microsoft Media Player!
    I hope you take a look into this issue because if you have a long file and you have to encode it again because it fails....... uiuiui
    Thanks Todd for the possibility to give this direct feedback to Adobe
    This is real support!

  • Really need help with AME Adobe Media Encoder crash on startup.

    Hey all, this is my first time posting in these forums.
    I have Adobe Design Premium and need to use the included Media Encoder for a project I'm working on.  It opened well the first time, and I started converting a file - at which point it crashed.  Since then, when I start it, it shows the startup / loading image, but once finished opening disappears and closes itself.  I've tried reinstallig, no dice.  I also read the plugin log files (My Documents > Adobe > Adobe Media Encoder > Log Files) - nothing out of the ordinary.
    Very stuck and very frustrated - any suggestions would be really appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi Michael. Without more information about output settings, the project, the computer, etc, I can't speculate on the cause of the initial crash. I can, however, offer a suggestion as to why the app is now failing to launch: the initial crash may have corrupted the application settings. If you delete those settings, or otherwise hide them from AME, then the app will create fresh settings on the next launch.
    Windows Vista & Win 7: C:\Users\<<yourUserName>>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\<<yourCreativeSuiteVersion>>*
    Windows XP (from distant memory): C:\Documents and Settings\<<yourUserName>>\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\<<yourCreativeSuiteVersion>>
    Mac: <<partition>>\Library\Preferences\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\<<yourCreativeSuiteVersion>>
    *On Windows 7 & Vista, if you can't see the App Data folder, you'll need to set Windows Explorer to show hidden files and folders: Tools>Folder Options>View tab.
    If this does the trick to get AME running again, and if it again crashes on you, please provide as much information as you can about the project, export settings, system, etc.

  • GoPro Hero 3 Black 4k and Adobe Media Encoder CS6

    As a current Creative Cloud member and a Premiere Pro user, I wanted to see if the Adobe Media Encoder can be used as an alternative to GoPro's Cineform Studio (free version), mainly as a batch encoder for use in Adobe Premiere Pro. The main issue with the GoPro footage in Adobe Premiere Pro is that its codec is not compatible with playback in Premiere, there's a conflicting codec that GoPro uses that unfortunately causes it to have choppy playback in Adobe Premiere Pro. Another issue is that the Adobe Cineform Studio (free version) is that one can only export one video at a time. And, finally I wanted to have more export options than what's available in the Cineform.
    This is what I've come up with:
    • 4Kcin and 4K show no preview footage in the encoder, and will export as black video - the encoder sees "no video"
    • 2.7cin & 2.7k and below all show preview and export appropriately.
    The main issue is that Adobe Media Encoder does not recognize the 4kcin or 4k footage from the GoPro camera. But it can encode 4k or above footage since it has a REDCODE plugin.
    Any thoughts or suggestions?

  • Adobe Media Encoder lost sound and had 128MB file - Why?

    Guys,
    Any help would be appreciated. I usually use Adobe Media Encoder to convert my files to flv or f4l - But something happened on the way to the party - The file was an .avi file about 100MB and AME would give me a file of about 128MB with no sound and the conversion took about 11 minutes. Someone on another forum suggested Xilisoft Video Converter I had never used. This thing got the sound right file was 48MB and it was done in ONE MINUTE AND 48 SECONDS...
    Obviously I was doing something wrong with Adobe Media Encoder can anyone suggested what I was messing up.
    Cheers,

    Hi,
    I do not know exactly the setting to did in the AME, but this problem generally happned when you do not select to export the sound along with the video and do not set a compression for the output video.
    Hope this helps

  • Why I have only 5 file formats in Adobe Media Encoder?

    I have an Adobe Media Encoder CS6. The problem is that, how i have only 5 file formats in the program. These: h.264 and (Legacy), FLV, F4V and MP3. The program doesn't support any more files. If i input a .avi or .3gp file it says: "File format doesn't supported". 1 weak ago it worked for me. Please help me.

    The formats that Adobe Media Encoder can use are determined by the other applications that are installed. For example, InDesign and Flash only give AME a very small number of formats; whereas Premiere Pro and After Effects give it many more.

  • Can't export (queue) out of ppro into adobe media encoder after update

    i just updated everything (cuda, nvidia, os 10.8.2, 6.0.3) and now i can't export from ppro into adobe media encoder.  as soon as i export out with any preset across multiple projects and hit play, i get the sheep sound almost immediately.  before this gets put in the AME discussion queue consider that AME works fine either when importing an AE composition etc.  so it seems to be premiere related.  thanks!

    Actually I'd recommend uinstalling all the adobe software on your PC if possible. Because truthfully if you have a decently fast internet connection or you have the installer for the suite on your system it really doesn't take that long to do a complete install. Plus when you do a complete install it's much more likely to fix the issue plus then you can use the Adobe CS cleaner tool which makes your odds for success much higher so that is what I'd recommend. If you follow the instructions from this link everything will go smoothly.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    I know in the past I have fallen into the trap of troubleshooting something for a few days, only to end up uninstalling then using the adobe CS cleaner tool, then reinstalling and then BAM everything was now fixed lol...
    Then I always ended up feeling silly for spending so much time on it instead of just doing a fresh install. Although I had no way of knowing that to begin with unfortunately. Hindsight is 20/20 most of the time.
    However you can technically try uninstalling Premiere by itself if you want to try that first. If my memory serves me correctly when you uninstall Premiere it will uninstall Encore and AME as well.

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS6 Random Crashing Mid-Render

    Hello -
    I've been dealing with this issue for enough months and across enough computers to finally seek out some advise here, hope it works out...
    Basically I've got a 2 hour long film that I've been trying to export using Adobe Media Encoder CS6. It's never made it all the way through. I can usually skim through the generated quicktime file up to the point where the crash occurred. I've tried using that as a reference to check out my sequence in Premiere but there is never anything suspicious going on there. Most frustratingly the crash occurs randomly. Sometimes it will go through 10 minutes of the film; sometimes an hour. Regardless I get a crash with a report that has no specific information.
    Footage:
    r3d - Various resolutions, all being cut in a 2048x1152 sequence.
    Quicktime mov - ProRes4444 for the most part.
    Machine(s):
    I had been attempting to render this for the past few months with a Macbook Pro running OSX 10.8.4 w/ 16GB RAM, 2.7 GHz Intel i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024MB - never made it through a render longer than 50 minutes of the 2 hours.
    We recently got one of the new 2013 Mac Pro systems running OSX 10.9 w/ 16GB RAM, 3.5 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5, AMD FirePro D500 3072 MB
    The hope was that this new powerful machine would overcome the issues we were running into with these renders. Since I'm posting this now you can probably figure out that it didn't really work out that way...
    Software:
    AME- 6.0.2.81
    Premiere - 6.0
    I know there are updates to be used here, but whenever I update Premiere from just 6.0, the project itself becomes a buggy mess, crashing constantly. I also run Creative Cloud and have tried to just jump over to Premiere CC hoping all my problems would vanish, but instead, I again get a buggy project that constantly crashes. The only version of Premiere that seems to work with this project is 6.0, so general updates have not been useful (and instead damaging, I've wasted several days trying everything I possibly can to make the project work in the updates).
    Any help appreciated. Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply MMeguro.
    Last night I was able to get my first full render through by doing a combination of things (so I'm not sure what did the trick in the end).
    To answer some questions first, never attempted to do the FULL render directly out of Premiere, always switched over to AME for that, so that potentially could work too. Smaller renders have worked directly out of Premiere Pro, but they've also worked out of AME.
    The initial render attempts that had been failing for the last few months were on the MBP which did not support GPU accleration due to an incompatible graphics card. I assumed the issue must be tied to something else because of this and was using it on the renders with the new 2013 Mac Pro. Using the workflow of Pr6.0, AME 6.0 and GPU rendering turned ON, I was failing to render to both Quicktime h264 and ProRes 422.
    What worked for last night's render:
    1. Convert Pr6.0 project to PrCC project (when I've done actual editing in CC after converting this project it tends to crash, but I figured just generating the project itself without doing any editing in it might satisfy what I was attempting to do).
    2. Open AME CC and import PrCC Sequence. Used custom ProRes 422 setting.
    3. Turned OFF GPU acceleration.
    So as long as I the PrCC project I create stays stable long enough to save it (without crashing, which has been a problem with that Pr6.0 to PrCC conversion) then it seems like this will work. Kind of an annoying couple extra steps but I'm just out of my mind glad that I can actually render this thing finally. We're still in the rough stages so being able to turn around a review version within a day is very important.
    Wish I could do more tests to figure out exactly which combination actually made this work for the benefit of others, but can't afford to do multiple 10 hour+ renders with random crash times.
    Anyway, thanks again for the reply MMeguro much appreciated.

  • 30 Second Audio Render problem in Adobe Media Encoder?

    I've been trying a few things out to fix this, but no luck.
    Ok, so I export videos with a audio spectrums where audio would be necessary. Now I want to do this all in After Effects without editing the Audio in in Premiere Pro. After Effects does not render in H.264. So I send it Adobe Media Encoder. When I export to AME, the first 30 seconds is mute, without fail. only on AME though. I can export straight through AE with .mov and it works fine. but I don't like doing that with the large filesize. I also did this with WebM. Audio does not export for 30 seconds on AME.
    I like to send everything to AME. So if I have to go to premiere to fix audio I will. so after fixing everything I send it over to AME and let it export. for some reason, it WILL give me audio. Is there something wrong with my settings in AE or AME?
    Everything is CC if that helps any

  • Twixtor plugin doesn't render using Adobe Media Encoder

    Hello, I'm having a weird case here with Twixtor 5.0 and Premiere CS6.
    First I was getting the orange screens rendering a sequence with twixtor in it. Them I read the solution for it, that is: "The seuquence have to be the same setting as the clip with twixtor applied"
    So I did it, and profit! It was working. I fixed all my sequences, and send to Adobe Media Encoder. After I burned the DVD with the MPEGs AME created, the orange screens were there again.
    If I export straight from Premiere, the video is fine! No orange screens, but if I send the sequence to AME, or even import it straight from AME, the video will have the error.
    Please, can someone help? There's a lot of chapters, and I don't want to render one by one trough Premiere, I could even put everything in one final sequence, but them I don't know if the final MPEG would save the chapter marks I would have to create in it...
    I really like AME, and want to use it
    Thanks!
    P.S:
    Windows 8 PRO
    Premiere CS6 6.0.3
    Twixtor V5.0

    If you set Encore chater markers in PP, name them and export out using MPEG2-DVD, they will carry over to Encore.

  • When I add my composition to the Adobe Media Encoder from After Effects, it renders out incorrectly?

    Why is it that when I add my composition directly from after effects to the adobe media encoder, it renders out of the adobe media encoder incorrectly? By that I mean the video comes out a little scrambled- parts of it overlap other parts. Is this an issue with 'dynamic link'? Did I do something wrong? I'm working in CC.

    I also don't understand what you are saying. What do you mean by "parts of it overlap other parts"? A screen shot might help.
    What were your render settings in AME? (Format, Codec, data rate, etc.)
    What is in your AE comp? If footage, tell us what format, codec, etc. Tell us what effects were used too.
    What exact version number of AE CC are you using?
