AE CS6 Render Queue MXF op1a output option

Hi! I use AE CS6 on different PCs W7 x64. For installation I used the same installer packages. The problem is: In one installation I have MXF op1a as an output format option in render queue, in an other I don't have. There is nothing different between the workstations: same OS, same AE, same Patch, same language (german), same QT, same Hardware... Have anybody an idea or know the solution? Thanks! Philipp

Yes, Adobe usually installs necessary codecs, but some folks like to add ones (like Lagarith).
However, the fact that your computers are all loaded with the same image and some work and others don't is very weird.

  • AE (CS6) Render Queue Messes Up Audio

    So I decided to render out a file using the AE (CS6) Render Queue.  I exported audio with the video, and, well... this is what I got.
    http://vimeo.com/49931535 (password is "GG4ever")
    The audio slow unsyncs, and then something happens about ten seconds in where it starts playing back audio from earlier in the project.  Uhh... what?
    BTW, this is how the audio SHOULD sound (this was rendered out with AME).
    http://vimeo.com/49931533

    No, the culprits were probably some programming team at Adobe (and I just love how Adobe reps never respond to threads about issues, instead leaving unpaid forum members to do their jobs); I used all 48k Stereo .wav files in my project.
    Also, anyone asking about the stats of my computer, it's this: http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/laptops/NP-R580-JSB1US The only change I've made to it is I added more RAM.

  • CS6: Premiere exports MXF Op1a (mpeg based) but Media Encoder does not.

    As a company we use several local machines with a full installation of CS6.
    Premiere Pro exports in our broadcast format (MXF Op1a - mpeg based - Long GOP - 50Mb - Top Field First - etc...) still Media Encoder does not.
    They we both installed in the same procedure, full installation of CS6. MXF presets are present on both directories (Premiere and Media Encoder).
    ME simply doesn't recognize "any know exporters" even if I force a preset, when it comes to MXF.
    We have to import every single video into Premiere to export as MXF. It's difficult to create an effective workflow this way.
    Any thoughts on why is this happening?
    NOTE:
    - Updated twice all machines - first to 6.0.3, now to 6.0.5 = no result
    - Copied presets from a working trial installation = no result
    - Microsoft based OS core i7 with 12Gb RAM, 3Tb HD and Nvidia Quadro 4000
    Regards, RicardoM

    I've read a lot of suggestions towards similar issues. None worked.
    - installed codec packs incluiding different mpeg variations = no result
    - copied /common preset files from premiere to AME = no result
    - copied and replaced the full directory of AME from another working AME (with MXF exporter) = no result
    - re-installed CS6 = no result
    - updated CS6 twice = no result
    - added MXF Preset zip file available in the official Adobe support (although it refers to mac presets) = no matter... no result
    I really don't know what else to do.
    It's difficult to accept suggestions like "format c and start over" cause of the impact on the production room, so I really need more options other than the extreme ones...
    Any ideia Jim Simon?
    Thanks in advance!
    BTW: Must add that in all processes above, MXF exporting was allways possible in Premiere, just not in AME.

  • CS6 Render with Sound Question

    Hi Guys,
    Is there a way to turn on the render sound option for all comps in a large list of comps in the CS6 Render queue?  I know CC fixes this as I am using both versions but I need to use CS6.  I tried shift clicking and selecting all comps but the change only effects one comp.
    On similiar lines, is there a way to send a large list of comps to the media encoder, I can only get it to ingest one comp at a time through the dialogue box.
    Thanks for considering these issues for me.

    Create an output module template with audio output enabled. Apply this template to each item in the render queue.

  • Setting format and format options in Output module settings for render queue item

    Hello,
    I am unable to set the "Format" and "Format options" for video in output module settings programatically using After effects apis.
    I referred the after effects cs3 sdk guide for the apis.
    I find apis for all other options in the "outputmodule settings " like :
    AEGP_SetEmbedOptions
    AEGP_SetOutputChannels
    AEGP_SetStretchInfo
    AEGP_SetSoundFormatInfo
    But there is no api listed for setting the options available in the "Format" tab and "Format options" tab.
    The "Format" tab and "Format options" tab is available in the dialog that opens when user clicks on the Output module settings for the render queue item.
    The format tab when clicked shows a drop down list with aff different formats. By default "Video for Windows" is set.
    The drop down list contains following format options
    Adobe Clip Notes
    Adobe Flash video
    Quicktime movie
    Video for Windows
    I need to be able to set the "Quicktime movie" option in the Format tab programmatically and then set the compression type as "Animation" in the compression settings programatically using the api functions available in AE CS3 SDK
    Please suggest the suitable api to do so.
    I need to write my own plugin to export to Quicktime movie using the after effects apis.
    I follow below steps to do so.
    1. AEGP_InsertMenuCommand and add export option to AE with my own plugin name
    2. In the command hook, select active item using AEGP_GetActiveItem
    3. Add it to render queue
    4. Set the output module settings for 0 th output module using
    suites.OutputModuleSuite1()
    5. Use different functions from suites.OutputModuleSuite1() to set the output module settings like EmbedOptions,StrechInfo etc.
    6. Till this step, I am doing it right. But I am not able to find any api for setting Format options using suites.OutputModuleSuite1()
    I also checked all other suites available for setting FormatOptions but no luck.
    Please help.
    Thanks,

    Hi Namita,
    I am experiencing the same problem.
    I am using AE CC SDK, and I am unable to change the outputmodule format to any of the other movie format types (mov, mpg, flv, etc.).
    It is always set to "avi"
    I even compiled and ran the Queuebert example in the SDK, and there I get the same problem: the path extension is always left on ".avi"
    Does anyone know how to change this?

  • After Effects CS6 render-only: Custom output modules?

    With After Effects CS5.5, we've been able to include custom output module templates (so, aside from the default Lossless, TIFF Sequence with Alpha, etc.).  We're having trouble doing the same with CS6.  Is there any way to make this work?

  • Multiple stereo outputs when creating a DNxHD MXF OP1a

    Hi,
    I'm trying to make some DNxHD MXF OP1a's from some source MOVs.
    Problem is I am trying to simply passthrough the dual stereo outputs (Full Mix, M&E), outputting as 48kHz 16bit WAV / uncompressed.
    Media Encoder seems to only want to deal with one Stereo pair for output, or multiple mono outputs for more than 2 track output.
    Does anyone know how to output 2 stereo pairs rather than 4 x mono tracks??  Any help would be appreciated
    Ben

    Loop preview is monitored via the Prelisten Channel - channel 256 in the environment Mixer, you can also locate it by setting Mixer view to "All" - so route the Prelisten channel to whatever Output you want it to be. Beware that Surround loops will always playback through the channels set in Logic's sourround preferences.

  • After I moved to new PC I have no longer option to in Render Queue to render to .wmv and .mp4.

    After I moved to new PC I have no longer option to in Render Queue to render to .wmv and .mp4.
    I have always been using 'Send to Render Queue', and there I had options to render to Windows Media and other formats, these are now missing
    WMV and MP4 is the only formats that give small enough file size.
    Anyone knows how I can get back these options in render queue?

  • AE appends my filename when setting up a render queue output filename via scripting

    I wrote a script that imports quicktimes and creates comps from them and adds them to the render queue. I'm running into an issue where files with certain names get appended when adding them to the queue. I believe it has something to do with the "." in the name. For example a quicktime named "filename_v25.140504.mov" is used to create a comp named "filename_v25.140504_test_01". This comp is then add to the render queue using the script below.
    var myRQItem = proj.renderQueue.items.add(renderComp);
    var myFile = new File(renderLocation.toString() + "/" + renderComp.name);
    myRQItem.outputModules[1].file = myFile;
    The filename it becomes "filename_v25.mov". It appears to be stripping everything after the last ".". This becomes a problem when I have several comps with names like: "filename_v25.140504_test_01", "filename_v25.140504_test_02", "filename_v25.140504_test_03" etc... since they all get added as "filename_v25.mov".
    Has anyone ran into this issue? Any solutions? Thanks!
    BTW I'm using CC on a mac running 10.9

    I haven't run into that particular issue, but what code are you using to create the comp based on the QuickTime file?  Can you replace the "." with a "_" when the comp is created?  If you can get ahold of the file name as a string, you could split it on the "." character then join the returned array with the "_" character.

  • Exporting multiple audio channels from Premiere Pro CS6 in MXF OP1a

    I have a Premiere Pro project with multiple audio channels and I want to export them as individual channels in a MXF-file.
    Method:
    When I created a new sequence I choose "Multichannel" from the "Tracks" page. When I export the MXF OP1a, I choose 8 channels from the "Audio" page. I make sure that none of the channels are muted.
    Result:
    The rendered file contains 8 channels as I want it to, but only the first two channels contains audio (main left + right), the rest of the channels are empty. Channel 1 and 2 contains the audio from all channels, but I want the channels to be seperated in the same way as they are layered in Premiere.
    Any ideas what I can do?
    Thank you for your help!

    Hey Guys,
    I'm having problems exporting an 8 channel audio mxf for a broadcast client. The mix they want is as follows:
    Track 01: Full Programme Mix L
    Track 02: Full Programme Mix R
    Track 03: International Sound L
    Track 04: International Sound R
    Track 05: Music and Effects L
    Track 06: Music and Effects R
    Track 07: VO Mono
    Track 08: Interview Mono
    I have setup the sequence following this video on vimeo and am fairly confident I have the sequence settings correct. https://vimeo.com/38501157
    I also can export a multichannel mxf. But all my tracks are exported as mono and I am therefore not maintaining my L and R as set up in my sequence
    The problem is on exporting that since Tracks 01 and 02 are bounced down to 1 + 2 it means that my Track 01 (Panned L) is getting bounced down onto my Track 02 aswell and thus it does not remain seperate. Has anyone delivered a similar format for a broadcaster and come across this problem with Premiere Pro and know a solution?
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Thanks

  • Can't export .MOV in AE cc render queue, But I can Export .MOV using Media Encoder cc

    I get “[file path and name].mov”. An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1610153464) when trying to export .mov using AE cc render queue but works fine in media Encoder cc. My problem is that i need to export animation with alpfa channel for a client and cannot find an alpha channel option in media encoder.
    Please help

    To export with an alpha channel in Adobe Media Encoder, choose "32 bit" from the Depth menu under the Video tab in the export settings. (That refers to 32 bits per pixel: 8 each for R, G, B, and A.) Of course, that option is only available if the codec can include an alpha channel, such as with the Animation codec in a QuickTime container.

  • FAQ: Why doesn't AVI appear as an export format in the Render Queue?

    [For information on rendering and exporting, see "Basics of rendering and exporting".]
    On Windows versions of After Effects, AVI appears listed with the more comprehensive name, "Video for Windows". In fact, it's the format specified by the default Output Module template. The Format Options button will reveal the AVI/VfW codecs available on your system.
    On Mac systems, AVI/Video for Windows is not available as a direct export option (except through the File > Export path, which is really not recommended). Export a lossless intermediate file from the Render Queue instead (for example, a Quicktime file). You can then use a number of converter applications (including Quicktime Pro, for example) to convert this intermediate file to an AVI file.

    Post Author: Rob Murnick
    CA Forum: .NET
    I'm starting to get the opinion that it can't be done - can't find any information explaining how, anyway.  Perhaps this is because .HTML format often uses it's own folder for storing image files, etc..., and the other formats (rpt, .pdf, .xls, .doc and .rtf) simply use a file.  The "Export Report" dialog would need to be a bit more complicated to switch between saving as a file and saving a set of files in a (potentially new) folder, so I'm just going to hide the Export button on the CrystalReportViewer control, add an external "Export" button, and roll my own dialog.

  • Reduce File Size?  - At or After Render Queue

    I have an Adobe After Effects final composition that runs at time of 0;01;36;24 at 29.97 fps, with no audio, and it is built for replay on a 27" 1920x1200 monitor. There is no live action video included, only Adobe Illustrator assets are imported and manipulated. I have minimal (1 instance) of using the After Effects 'Effects and Presets' tools. Additionally, I have included cameras and lights, and my final composition is composed of 8 pre-comps.
    When I export (or render queue) the final comp, it comes out being a file size of 17.+ GB. Obviously, this is not conducive to transport, or play back. I can render it off at half resolution (960x600), but it appears blurry when viewed on the 27" monitors. (no doubt because I am mentally comparing it to the full version).
    Is there a way to render the composition off at 3/4 resolution, OR use a codec to reduce the file size without loosing dropping the resolution by half or less?

    David -
    Yeah, I tried that one, but it still had a file size that was far from manageable. But, I did find the setting through the RENDER QUEUE. But thanks anyway.
    For anyone who is looking for this information. Select WINDOW > Render Queue. (This will bring it up as an window where the timeline panel is.)
    Drag your composition into the Render Queue
    Under 'Output Options' (it may be called something else, not sure) Click the 'Format Options' Button. Under the drop down menu, select SORENSON 3 (from my understanding, this is one the best lossy compression codecs available).
    Then go back to the render queue and press the render button, it may take a while, but it reduced my 17GB file down to 216MB with minimal loss.

  • Which: Export AE Render Queue ? PP Export Media ? Media Encoder?

    The output of my PP and AE project ( combined video and animation ) looks terrible when exported or queued in PP or the CS5 Media Encoder.
    It renders slow and has shown poor performance in the Mac OS X Activity Monitor.
    When output to the AE queue ... the project looks great,, encodes super fast, and 'finally' shows awesome performance in the Activity Monitor.
    I spent too much time trying different settings before I tried the AE renderer ... which, by the way, is buried away in the Compostition Menu under Add to Render Queue.
    First, It is standard to output as a File command .. so there should be a Export / Save As ... > to the "Render Queue" .. and who cares what a 'render queue' is .. all I want to do is save file "A" in format "B".
    So ... basically , my question is / are:
    Why does both the PP Export and CS5 Media Encoder produce such bad results?
    and / or
    What are the correct settings for PP Export and CS5 Media Encoder to produce excellent results matching the AE Render Queue?
    Why do you have multiple inconsistent, confusing and dysfunctional Exporting / Saving options?
    Seems that the CS5 "Media Encoder" should be junked and replaced with whatever engine is running inside the AE renderer .. and all other Export / Save / Add to Render Queue / and God knows what else you guys call it ...  should be routed to the new Media Encoder.

    Thanks again as always Todd.
    I just can't get some of this ... just when I think I'm getting somewhere .. blam.

    There are posts here at Adobe and one on Creative Cow Discussions .. but no one at Adobe answers.
    "Why?"
    I have a huge plugin problem and yet again I will have to reinstall the system software and CS5 to get it to work long enough so I can spend time trying to figure out the vocabulary to explain to you, Apple, and CoreMelt what is going on. It seems to be within Dynamic Link.
    Do you have a 12 Core Mac OS X?
    Would your tech with a 12 Core Mac running OS X 10.6.6 install CoreMelt Plugin V2 - Lock & Load?
    Would your tech explain to whomever needs to figure it out why / what doesn't work .. and fill in the blanks at Adobe?
    Would someone explain it to me?
