After Effects: Windows 7: QT32 Server.exe Crashing When Rendering H264

Hi,
I am encountering After Effects on Windows 7 SP1 outputting an "Output Module Failed" when rendering any comp to the desktop as a QT H264(even a new project w/ a comp w/ just a single solid & no effects) in both After Effects 12.1/2 and Media Encoder(of a AE comp). I have already done the following:
Removed Preferences
Cleared Cache
Turned Off Firewall
Reinstalled QT 7
Restarted Machine
Other discussions/posts regarding QT32 Server and AE seem to be focused on OS X. I've checked QT's component folders to find no components. Not sure if I should be looking elsewhere. There are no third party codecs installed. I have encountered this at two different studios I do IT for. Beyond uninstalling CC and running the Cleaner, is there anything I can do?
Thanks,
Anthony

Do you have a computer with a lot of processor cores? The Apple H.264 encoder used for QuickTime has a severe bug when used on a system with 24 or more processor cores (so, a 12-core computer with hyperthreading enabled).
Why are you creating a QuickTime movie with H.264? QuickTime is generally a good container, and H.264 is a good codec, but H.264 in QuickTime is a mess. What, exactly, are you going to do with this file? How are you determining your delivery specifications?

    Hi I'm ediiting on a local disk on my windows PC. The PC has a 4930K i7 , 32gb of ram and a gtx 670 4gb. The issue has happened a couple of times in the passed but is now constant as I am trying to finish a multi-cam edit. I have copied the error log here:

    Todd,
    Thanks for the reply. I'm using After Effects CC 12.2.1.5
    Here's the screenshot of my View Preview settings:
    Also, after further troubleshooting, I can get the sequence to render IF I select resize and enter dimensions outside of the original dimensions. (I'm currently trying to render a 3840 x 2160 QHD comp but I get the same issue with 1920 x 1080 comps)

  • How to speed up render to h.264 in CS6? Adobe QT32 Server.exe causes long delay

    (Before you say "Don't use AE to render to h.264; use AME!" – I'd love to, but AME isn't controllable from the command line / batch files the way aerender.exe is)
    When I try to render a brain dead simple composition (30 seconds, black background with the word "DUMMY" centered), aerender takes nearly four minutes to complete. This is a Windows Server 2012 box with 32 CPUs (16 cores+16 HT), about ~60GB of memory and I believe it's on 10Gb ethernet. Turning multi-processing off doesn't have effect on the pause.
    If I view the task in task viewer, NO CPU is being used and Adobe QT32 Server.exe is running. Analyzing the wait chain for aerender.exe says that a thread is waiting for network i/o to complete (I assume this is Adobe QT32 Server.exe, which uses TCP to talk to Quicktime). After about three minutes, the render continues (and goes blazingly quick, as expected).
    WTF?
    How can I get around this long, useless pause? Is there an alternative h.264 output module that doesn't use Quicktime?
    Thanks in advance!

    The flaw is here:
    This is a Windows Server 2012 box
    Adobe desktop programs are generally not officially supported on server operating systems. Whatever issues you have are probably due to things like local users vs. network users, disk quota, specific group policies or plain and simple another process occupying or blocking the same port that the QT server is using. In any case, this is nothing we can figure out for you. You have to sit down and work your way through the server's administration tools, turn off stuff, change user permissions. Check the event logs for conflicting processes or use tools like Sysinternals' Process Monitor or Wireshark to track down port collisions and otehr problems.

  • Adobe QT32 Server.exe has stopped working?

    Everytime I exit Premiere cs5 or media encoder cs5 this error message would pop up.  Currently it doesn't seem to effect the programs, it is just really annoying.  Does anyone know what is wrong and how to fix it?

    I get this error when I start Windows.
    Since I seldom use Premiere I don't want to give access to its services to contact any servers at all.
    And also, I Windows firewall should show a message when blocking a new program, according to my firewall settings, and I don't find Adobe QT32.exe in the firewall list of programs.
    The only Adobe program I've got installed is Adobe Premiere Elements 13, but it seems to have installed some unwanted services...

  • Adobe QT32 Server.exe Premiere CS6 Pro and Media Encoder

    Doesn't always do it, but now I've found an instance where it's reliably repeatable. As I scrub through a certain part of the footage, it crashes. Or it crashes at the same point during rendering.
    I've succesfully edited and rendered clips made from the same cameras, recorder (Tricaster 410) - even from the same actual media file. I've tried updating QuickTime, uninstalling, reinstalling QuickTime, doing windows updates, updating GPU drivers from Nvidia, clearing media cache DB, launching Premiere while holding shift. Nothing makes a difference.
    System is an 2 CPU Intel Xeon E5-2687W 3.1 GHz, 64GB RAM running Win7 Pro 64.
    Anyone have any suggestions that don't involve reinstalling CS6?

    ...BE AWARE.....the newest versions of PPro CC 2014 contain a "fix" for your problems with the .MOV  32 bit codec. Somehow, .MOVs are NOW handled in a 64 bit environment by PPro which REMOVES the CRIPPLING use of the 32 bit Quirktime process, and ALLOWS much greater memory to be used than the old 4 GB limit.......I've seen the DRASTIC improvement myself on my Haswell laptop. I am not sure about Media Encoder, however, it would be STUPID if the same improvement was not also made with THAT program. CS6 does NOT have this improvement.....and WILL not updated to get it.  If I return to PPro 5.5....the "old" crappy performance returns with Canon MOVs......even on a TWICE as powerful machine !!!!.....UGH !!!
    ....Better to submit to the "subscription model" and its pecadillos that try to edit with a QUIRKTIME hobbled workflow !!!!

  • Premiere Elements - QT32 server.exe - no disk

    I have Premiere Elements 10 on win7 (64). Using instant movie I get an error message '5d0: adobe QT32 Server.exe - No Disk, There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive D:'.   Drive D on my computer is one of the card reader slots. This shows up as a process in Task Manager which cannot be killed.   Any thoughts welcome

    I had QT version 7.6.9.  Your answer prompted me to check for upgrades.  Upgrading to 7.7.1 failed so I uninstalled 7.6.9 and installed 7.7.1 manually (after having to manually delete a file left behind by 7.6.9 uninstall - 'error getting file security' message ).
    Instant movie now works fine.
    BTW - I had recently installed the Additional Function Content &, on checking again, my 'D' drive is in fact my DVD drive.  There may have been a pointer to there from my recent installation of the Additional Function Content.
    Thank you for your time.

  • After Effects crashes when rendering to H264

    Hi,
    On one of my computers, After Effects Crashes when rendering to H264. It always chrashes when doing the last frame of a clip. I think its when muxxing the m4a and the m4v together...
    Does anyone have a solution? maybe there is some odd codec trash going on?
    Thanks in advance!

    Report
    In every version of AE that has been capable of exporting h.264 the quality has been significantly lower than exporting with an app that gives you the option of multi-pass rendering. This has always been true for MPEG codecs that use inter frame (temporal) compression. You just can't get the same quality without multi pass compression. This goes back to the first use of MPEG streams.
    AE CS6 may have H.264 encoding broken internally, but any pro has never used AE to render highly compressed delivery codecs because AE was never designed to be the right tool for the job.

  • Getting a an adobe QT32 Server.exe error?

    My production premium CS6 media encoder was working fine and now every time I launch I get the Adobe QT32 Server.exe. - No Disk error That reads There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk drive\Device\Harddisk2\DR10

    We can't know. You have not provided any proper system info nor details about your render settings or e.g. the settings for the Media Cache. This very much sounds like it is simply looking for a file from a previous render that no longer is there...

  • Quicktime output error - adobe qt32 server.exe

    Hallo,
    ich habe eine HP Workstation Z800 mit 2xSixcore 2,66, 24GB RAM. Betriebssystem ist Win7 64bit. Software: Adobe CS5 MasterCollection, Avid MC 5, Norton 360 Premier Edition, Quicktime 7.2.6., MS Office 2010.  Nun habe ich folgendes Problem. Möchte ich eine Komposition als Quicktime mit Avid DNxHD oder H.264 Codec exportieren, erhalte ich die Fehlermeldung: "Adobe QT32 Server.exe funktioniert nicht mehr". Alle anderen Codecs funktionieren reibungslos. Nun habe ich folgenden Unterschied zwischen den Codecs beobachtet. Wenn ich den Avid DNxHD oder H.264 Codec verwende schiesst der verwendete Arbeitsspeicher vom AdobeQT32Server.exe sofort auf 800 - 900 mb rauf. Bei allen anderen QT-Codecs bleibt er jedoch bei ca. 55mb. Da ich mal ganz stark annehme, dass darin das Problem liegt, würde mich natürlich interessieren, ob das bei euch ebenfalls so ist bzw. wie das Problem beheben kann. Habe auch schon allerhand ausprobiert (sogar Win7 neu aufgesetzt und all die Software neu installiert, unterschiedliche QT-Versionen, unterschiedliche Speicher - und Mehrkernprozessor- Einstellung in AE CS5, mit und ohne Firewall das Rendering gestartet), jedoch erscheint immer wieder die gleiche Fehlermeldung!
    Danke für eure Hilfe!
    Mfg,
    Chris

    wie das Problem beheben kann
    Im Prinzip gar nicht... Das sind uralte Speicherfehler, weil die CoDecs niemals auf 64bit angepaßt wurden und mit mehr als 4GB Speicher mehr oder weniger nicht zurecht kommen. Die "laufen sich dann tot", hämmern also einfach den Speicher zu, bis nix mehr geht, und beim Überschreiten der 4GB macht's zisch, weil sie Speicherbereiche falsch berechnen, die es nicht gibt, so dass der ganze Kram abschmiert... Weiß gar nicht, ob's nicht vielleicht bei Avid vielleicht doch mal endlich eine brauchbare Version von DNxHD gibt, die das Problem nicht mehr hat.... Ansonsten halt weitestgehend drauf verzichten. Auf jeden Fall auch bei H.264, da bist du mit dem Adobe-eigenen nativen Encoder besser bedient...

  • Servicelayer.exe crashes when backing up

    Hi there guys,
    I am currently having a problem with PC Suite where the servicelayer.exe crashes when doing a phone backup.
    OS: Windows Vista
    PC Suite: 6.82.22.0
    Phone: N80
    Whenever I try to do a phone backup it gets to 50% the servicelayer.exe crashes and PC Suite re-initiates a connection to the phone. This problem does not happen when I do a memory card backup. I have also noticed that this happens on either the cable connection or bluetooth.
    If anyone has any idea what could be causing this problem please help ... I think that maybe I need to wait for a version is more compatible with VISTA!

    I'm not sure this is isolated to Vista as I'm having similar problems on both Win 2000 and XP. Was going to start a new topic about my issue when I saw this post. So I'll put the detail here.
    OS: Windows 2000 and XP
    PC Suite: 6.92.22.0
    Phone: 6233
    Whenever I attempt to do a backup of the phone only (or phone and card) it gets to 80% before the connection drops out as described above.
    Have tried 2 different PCs (1 Win2000, 1 WinXP) and clean installs of PC Suite but the problem is consistent across both machines. I am using a CA-53 cable.
    Was going to experiment a little more by trying my 6230 to see if the problem was specific to the 6233, haven't tried just a card backup (as I didn't really need this) but will have a go to confirm whether this works as per the original post and to try and isolate the problem. Might also rollback the PC Suite install to an older version to see if the problem persists.
