AME bogs down when encoding

I have a fairly edit-intense file that I've been trying to encode (using Adobe Media Encoder) for YouTube. The first part of the video (a little over 5 minutes total length) is pretty straight-forward video and chugs along just fine. Then it hits a section which is heavily edited - a bunch of green screen video with some effects and it understandably slows down. The problem I'm getting is that when it gets through that section to something less intensive, it continues to be VERY slow to render frames. It's like the tough part made it tired and it just doesn't have the energy anymore. I've tried several different output options, all with the same results.
What's most frustrating is that during editing, I have saved versions of this which did not bring the encoding to a halt. In fact, the most recent successful encoding was making a DVD ISO in Encore which also included an additional video and menu screen. Yet that worked as expected in a reasonable amount of time. What could have changed?
I started this project and wrote to DVD in CS6. My first attempt at the YouTube output was also CS6. Thinking the upgrade to CC might fix the problem, I upgraded, but it's reacting in the same way.
I appreciate any help - thanks!

Now, to make things worse. Since I couldn't figure out the issue, I just let the sequence run. I happened to be at my computer for the last few frames (watching it render in AME's output preview) at roughly the 45 hour mark! I was happy that even though it took forever, at least it was done. But I noticed the progress bar was only about 1/2 way through... and then the video started over! It didn't save the file, it just kept on rendering a second time through.
How could that be? Is there a "repeat" setting I might have accidentally changed? This has been so frustrating.

My MacBook is almost two years old and has started running really slow. It gets bogged down when it is running different programs at the same time, like Safari and Pages. It didn't react this way until recently. Any advice would be very welcome.

Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive (the drive itself, not the volume icons below it.) Is the SMART status "Verified?" If not, replace the drive immediately. If the status is "Verified," the drive may still be failing. Back up all data, if you haven't already done so. Reinstall Mac OS X, then run Software Update. Test with all wired peripherals disconnected. If it's still slow, you have a hardware problem.

AME Shuts Down when exporting H.264 Blu Ray

I have a current project that was shot in HDV and I am trying to export an H.264 Blu Ray file. This is a 4 Disk set and the other 3 files exported with no problems but for some reason I cannot get this last one (which happens to be Disk #3). I will start AME running as I am getting ready to leave my office. When I come back in the morning there is nothing open on my desktop, just the normal screen. Anyoen have any ideas??? Below are my export setting and computer info

That is it... It does not show that there was a problem or that it was completed.
I then went into the Errors Log and there was nothing about this particular project.
Do you think that maybe the PC is shutting down and restarting? Not sure how I would know that...
Dont get me started on the Pr not supported by XP 64 thing. Quite frustrating to me....

Pc bogs down when running longer, more voluminous queries

Hi we run 2012 enterprise.
I'm noticing that when running longer and higher column count queries locally, other parts of my computer (os w7 professional, 64 bit, 8gb) start getting sluggish. I started looking for wasted disk space and started cleaning up but wonder if here are
some standard steps for keeping other things like browsers, spreadsheets, email etc etc from suffering while longer sql queries r running? It is much worse when ssis is in the picture (even after stopping debugger) but i thought i'd start in this forum.

Hello,
That's kind of the point of SQL Server is to use the resources to return the data as quickly and efficiently as possible. It's server based software. I'm not sure which edition you are using, as express is capped in memory usage but if you're using standard
or above you'll want to set the max server memory to something low enough to not impact your other applications (though this could cause disk thrashing and make things worse).
Since SQL Server isn't really made for desktop usage (ok, express edition is kind of) the only thing you can do is kee your queries and data items light and efficient. Tune the queries, use indexes, etc. From the OS side of view there isn't anything
you can do. If you're running enterprise edition (which I highly doubt) you could employ resource governor but why shoot yourself in the foot? Plus Enterprise edition costs more than the desktop and it woul dmake sense to use an actual server.
If you add SSIS into the mix, yes it could (and probably will) perform much worse.

When I use the spotting tool on a very dirty image it bogs down. Can I collapse the work?

What is the best way to save or collapse the work I have done on an image so I can get back to working at a good speed? I am guessing if I saved the image as a JPEG and reimported it that would add noise. There is probably a simple way to solve this. Any answers?
Thanks

Robert,
There is still a known bug where LR (including 3.3RC) bogs down when large number of spots are utilized. Every system is different and most systems appear to not have this problem. Personally, on my system, cleaning up a BW scan will bog down when I add around 50 spots and become unbearable by 100 - sometimes even hanging for 30 seconds or more.
Some improvement was provided with the 3.3RC in that the hanging is less likely; however, the slowdown is still experienced and adding more spots once it gets to this phase is not an option.
If 3.3RC doesn't solve your problem, and space is not an issue, you might consider exporting (and automatically re-importing) in TIFF format. You will probably lose the least amount of detail and introduce the least amount of noise that way as opposed to a JPEG file. You can then continue working on the re-imported TIFF file as your original and you should be fine for a few more spots. I would probably delete the file you exported from so you don't get confused about which file is your image file (just my personal preference not to have two files of the same image unless they are VCs).
Also, I find that exiting and re-starting LR every 5 or so images while in Develop module can help but that is huge pain.
Best of luck. I am patiently awaiting updates to fix this issues once and for all.

I am strarting to get bogged down when I am edtting my videos. Does any body know how to clean up the system so I am running more efficient in final cut pro 7? My main video files are on one drive and the preview files are set to another drive. Main install of FCP7 is on my Main Drive.
Can you help?

Hi
And this is FinalCut Express forum !
But I guess that Your Main / Start-Up / Boot / Mac OS Hard disk is filling up ?
You need more than 25GB free space on this ONE and may be 4-5 times more if You are working with HD-Material.
Even though You use two more external hard disks for "Main video" and "Preview files" the space need to be on Start-Up Hard Disk for Mac OS and application .temp files - as they can not be addressed elsewhere !
Yours Guessing - Bengt W (I use both FCE (4.0.x) and FCP (6.0.6))

I'm having problems with FlashPlayerPlugin and plugin-container. They keep starting up and bogging down the system. This has been a recent occurrance. I've made sure that I have the latest version. I notice the problem when I am opening some applicatio, and it freezes. If I go to Task Manager, I can see the two Adobe apps sucking up CPU cycles. If I end the processes, then the other apps continue. Today, I uninstalled FlashPlayerPluginqand plugin-container. All day since I have had no freezing of an app. What should I do to correct the problem?

Here's an explanation of what those processes are.

I'm curious about what you did to uninstall just those.

N200 shuts down when attempting to encode tra

I've got a Muvo N200 with which I have a problem.
When I try to encode tracks using the line-in it just shuts down when I try to choose that option. I go into the menu, use the jog wheel to scroll to the encoding option and the I press the jog wheel. Result: the player shuts off. I tried just scrolling to the option and pressing the play/pause button, but then it just exits the menu.
I have not upgraded the firmware on the player since I bought it, so it's fresh out of the box.
Anyone who's got a solution? Will upgrading the firmware do the trick?

Where can I find that firmware version? I can only find .6.02. And also, I tried updating to that firmware, but I don't know if it actually had any effect. When I ran that firmware update, the only way I got the New Hardware Guide-dialog to come up was if I removed the battery from the unit before I did the hold-play-button-and-then-connect-to-PC routine. Then it ran the Player Recovery stuff and then I unplugged it and it turned on just fine. However none of the tracks I had on it previously were delted. They were all intact after the upgrade. So the question is if the upgrade actually took effect.
Anyway, the encode option doesn't work now either. The reason I want to use this option is I want to be able to use the player for recording interviews using an external mic.
Also, in Explorer in WinXP the Creative Media Explorer says that the player isn't connected, while it obviously is as it shows up as a removable disk.
Dodgy player, this.

AME stops responding when second file added to queue

I'm running CS5 on a 64-bit Windows 7 system.
Today, AME stops responding whenever I try to add a second file to the encoding/transcoding queue. I can add an .avi or a Premiere project timeline (either exported from Premiere or added straight into AME) but if I try to duplicate that item or add a second version, I instantly see the spinner and it the application goes to "not responding."
I have no idea where to start looking. Any ideas?
Thanks for the help.

I have now done an uninstall and reinstall of the entire CS5 Master Collection suite. At first, the problem seemed to have persisted, or gotten worse.
AME was able to launch and load, and could get to the point of selecting a Premiere Pro project timeline to import, without issue. However, AME would hang if I dragged an MPEG-2 into the queue or selected a timeline to import, and then quickly go to "not responding."
I have an watch folder in my AME queue and I thought I'd delete it to see if I could do anything in AME. I was able to delete it without issue. I then tried dragging an MPEG-2 into the queue again and, predictably, it hung, went non-responsive and I killed AME. However, when I re-launched AME the watch folder was again in the queue. So I deleted the folder, exited AME and relaunched it. I was then able to import an After Effects comp and successfully encode it, as well as drag in some small MPEG-2s. Finally I risked importing a small Premiere Pro project timeline and it worked.
Right now, AME is happily encoding a timeline from an old, large and messy project that gets messier every couple of weeks.
My guess is that there was something wrong with way one of the files or projects I tried to import earlier and, since AME wasn't getting shut down, the troublesome item was persisting (and the problem possibly compounding) every time I launched AME.

Is there a way to not have photo stream photos save to my iphone? i have many shared photo streams hoping to not bog down my iphone space. but alas the photos are are being saved on my iphone.

Is there a way to not have photo stream photos save to my iphone? i have many shared photo streams hoping to not bog down my iphone space. but alas the photos are are being saved on my iphone.
For example. When I share a photo stream with my dad and brother and mother all the photos they are putting in the shared photo stream are taking up space on my iphone! I'll be out of space in no time at this rate.

hi, this thread already deals with the issue:

IMac starting to really bog down

By bog down i mean that every operation has a noticeable lag time before initiating.
I have a mid-2010 iMac
3.2 GHz Intel Core i3
512 MB ATI Radeon graphic card
12 GB 1333MHz DDR3 in 4-4-2-2 formation
I'm using about 75% of my 1 TB hardrive (more than i should I know but not enough to be slowing down machine this dramatically).
The problem was most apparent initially when running Aperture and I'd be getting a lot of spinning beach balls and painfully slow processing. I rebuilt the aperture library but that didn't seem to fix the problem. The interesting thing is the activity monitor is not showing any obvious problems. Plenty of RAM available (over 8 gb), CPU is only running at about 10% on average with no noticeable spikes when trying to open a program nor any evidence of CPU Load spikes in the histogram.
The steps I've taken:
1. verified disk
2. repaired permissions
3. rebuilt aperture library
4. closed all applications and tried to open one at a time. all are slow to open.
Here is my most recent system diagnostic report from the Console. I really can't make sense of it unfortunately but was hoping some more technically literate folks out there might see something obvious that points to an identifiable problem.

From the looks of this report, it appears like on Thread 0 crashed. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to fix this.
Any help would be really appreciated. I'm kind of at my wits end here.

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything suggested in this comment. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed, as well as some other aspects of the configuration that may be related to the problem.
Don’t be alarmed by the seeming complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out. Here's a brief summary: In each of two steps, you copy a line of text from this web page into a window in another application. You wait about a minute. Then you paste some other text, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is copy; paste; paste again. That's all there is to it. Details follow.
You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken while booted in “normal” mode. If the system is now running in safe mode and is bootable in normal mode, reboot as usual. If it only boots in safe mode, use that.
Below are instructions to enter UNIX shell commands. They do nothing but produce human-readable output. However, you need to think carefully before running any program at the behest of a stranger on a public message board. If you question the safety of the procedure suggested here — which you should — search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them.
The commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it.
If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. Step 1 should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
PB=/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy; PR () { [[ "$o" ]] && o=$(sed 's/^/   /' <<< "$o") && printf '\n%s:\n\n%s\n' "$1" "$o"; }; PC () { o=$(grep [^[:blank:]] "$2"); PR "$1"; }; PF () { o=$($PB -c Print "$2" | awk -F'= ' \/$3'/{print $2}'); PR "$1"; }; PN () { [[ $o -eq 0 ]] || printf "\n%s: %s\n" "$1" $o; }; { system_profiler SPSoftwareDataType | sed '8!d;s/^ *//'; o=$(system_profiler SPDiagnosticsDataType | sed '5,6!d'); fgrep -q P <<< "$o" && o=; PR "POST"; o=$(($(vm_stat | awk '/Pageo/{sub("\\.",""); print $2}')/256)); o=$((o>=1024?o:0)); PN "Pageouts (MiB)"; s=( $(sar -u 1 10 | sed '$!d') ); [[ ${s[4]} -lt 90 ]] && o=$( printf 'User %s%%\t\tSystem %s%%' ${s[1]} ${s[3]} ) || o=; PR "Total CPU usage"; [[ "$o" ]] && o=$(ps acrx -o comm,ruid,%cpu | sed '2!d'); PR "Max %CPU by process (name, UID, %)"; o=$(kextstat -kl | grep -v com\\.apple | cut -c53- | cut -d\< -f1); PR "Loaded extrinsic kernel extensions"; o=$(launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)|\.[0-9]+$/{print $3}'); PR "Loaded extrinsic user agents"; o=$(launchctl getenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES); PR "Inserted libraries"; PC "cron configuration" /e*/cron*; o=$(crontab -l | grep [^[:blank:]]); PR "User cron tasks"; PC "Global launchd configuration" /e*/lau*; PC "Per-user launchd configuration" ~/.lau*; PF "Global login items" /L*/P*/loginw* Path; PF "Per-user login items" L*/P*/*loginit* Name; PF "Safari extensions" L*/Saf*/*/E*.plist Bundle | sed 's/\..*$//;s/-[1-9]$//'; o=$(find ~ $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 $ | wc -l); PN "Restricted user files"; cd; o=$(find -L /S*/L*/E* {,/}L*/{A*d,Compon,Ex,In,Keyb,Mail/Bu,P*P,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo}* -type d -name Contents -prune | while read d; do ID=$($PB -c 'Print :CFBundleIdentifier' "$d/Info.plist") || ID=; ID=${ID:-No bundle ID}; egrep -qv "^com\.apple\.[^x]|Accusys|ArcMSR|ATTO|HDPro|HighPoint|driver\.stex|hp-fax|JMicron|microsoft\.MDI|print|SoftRAID" <<< $ID && printf '%s\n\t(%s)\n' "${d%/Contents}" "$ID"; done); PR "Extrinsic loadable bundles"; o=$(find /u*/{,*/}lib -type f -exec sh -c 'file -b "$1" | grep -qw shared && ! codesign -v "$1"' {} {} \; -print); PR "Unsigned shared libraries"; o=$(system_profiler SPFontsDataType | egrep "Valid: N|Duplicate: Y" | wc -l); PN "Font problems"; for d in {,/}L*/{La,Priv,Sta}*; do o=$(ls -A "$d"); PR "$d"; done; } 2> /dev/null | pbcopy; echo $'\nStep 1 done'
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
The command may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. Wait for the line "Step 1 done" to appear below what you entered. The output of the command will beautomatically copied to the Clipboard. All you have to do is paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-Vagain. Please don't copy anything from the Terminal window. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Remember that you must be logged in as an administrator for this step. Do as in Step 1 with this line:
PR () { [[ "$o" ]] && o=$(sed 's/^/   /' <<< "$o") && printf '\n%s:\n\n%s\n' "$1" "$o"; }; { o=$(sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|calendarse|cups|dove|isc|ntp|post[fg]|x)/{print $3}'); PR "Loaded extrinsic daemons"; o=$(sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook); PR "Login hook"; o=$(sudo crontab -l | grep [^[:blank:]]); PR "Root cron tasks"; o=$(syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail -n25 | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}'); PR "Log check"; } 2>&- | pbcopy; echo $'\nStep 2 done'
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
You can then quit Terminal. Please note:
☞ Steps 1 and 2 are all copy-and-paste — type only your login password when prompted.
☞ When you type your password, you won't see what you're typing.
☞ If you don’t have a password, set one before taking Step 2. If that’s not possible, skip the step.
☞ Step 2 might not produce any output, in which case the Clipboard will be empty. Step 1 will always produce something.
☞ The commands don't change anything, and merely running them will do neither good nor harm.
☞ Remember to post the output of both steps (unless you had to skip Step 2.) It's already in the Clipboard after you complete each step. You don't have to copy it. Just paste into a reply
☞ If any personal information, such as your name or email address, appears in the output of either command, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
☞ Don't post what you see in the Terminal window. The output is copied automatically to the Clipboard.
☞ Don't paste the output of Step 1 into the Terminal window. Paste it into a reply.

Old previews bogging down hard drive backups

When I backup my hard drive to another hard drive, using Vica-Versa software, there are often lots (thousands) of older LR preview files that need to be deleted off the backup drive. With Vica-Versa the entire process just bogs down and can take forever. I have tried several other backup programs and have found no solutions. Is there a way to keep LR from creating previews at all? I know that would slow me down as I work with Lightroom, but right now I'd be willing to wait a little longer for a preview to be rebuilt than to have to deal with the incredible amounts of time it takes to backup my hard drive. Any suggestions? Thanks. Frank. [email protected]

... Thanks for the suggestion, but would I put the preview files somewhere else manually, or is there a way to set up LR so that preview files would be directed to a place other than where the main image files are located? It seems to me that I remember seeing that kind of an option somewhere, but I'm not finding it either in general preferences or in catalog settings.
Unfortunately there is no way (I know of) of telling LR where to put the preview files, they're put into a subfolder of the folder where the catalog resides (and not where the original image files are located!).

This was a wish only :-)

That's exactly the reason why I would like the option of telling LR where to put the previews. But, unfortunately, not (yet) possible.
I have excluded the previews from my backups with the following mask:

Mac Mail Sent File bogging down Mail, and entire system

At Mail start up, when I go to my Sent File, it appears to be attempting to update/access the file (that shouldn't need that much updating). The small pie chart icon that shows progress next to the Sent Folder starts, but doesn't progress past the first little sliver and the rainbow pinwheel just spins and spins and spins.
It ends up bogging down and eventually locking up the whole machine.
If I leave it alone and let it spin for a while (like 5-10 minutes) it will eventually finish whatever it was trying to do but any attempts in the interim to do much of anything is futile - even a force quit is super super laggy.
This problem has only been happening for the last week or so. I can't associate it with any sort of update or activity - it seems to have just come out of thin air.
Really making using mail almost impossible. Needless to say this is putting a significant cramp in my work which is especially email heavy.
Please advise.
MacBook Pro ('08 I think)
Running 10.6.8 (have not updated due to incompatibility with critical software)
Mail Version 4.6
Thanks

Eric,
It worked, thanks!
What is a "rebuild"? and why did that mailbox need rebuilding (and others didn't)?
Thanks again.

My ibook has become inefficient/bogged down

When I am browsing the web or using mail, I see at times the cursor changes to a hourglass (or its mac version i.e a circle with rainbow colour pattern) and I cannot do anything for a minute or 2 -until it returns to a normal cursor. Also, switching between mail or safari takes a lot of time, as if the apps are jammed/trying to fetch something.
when i was typing the subject line, after "inefficient/", the circle appeared and I had to wait for a minute to type "bogged down".
I believe I have installed some updates (automatic install) which might have caused this. Can someone help me restore the mac to former self? do I need to create more swap space or some such thing to alleviate the problem?
thanks

Your 3.51 GB free is marginal. It's best not to use a %, but an absolute value. Your Mac needs adequate hard drive space to operate normally. How full can a drive be before it's too full? There is no hard and fast rule that says “X” amount or “%” of free drive space is needed. A low amount of RAM requires more drive space for Virtual Memory’s swap files.
Problems from insufficient RAM and free hard disk space are discussed in this link
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/lackofram.html How much RAM do you have?
Here’s some general guidelines for minimum hard drive free space: As a general rule, your available space should be 5GB as an absolute minimum as it generally requires that much free space to perform an Archive and Install of Mac OS X and still preserve some free space for VM swap files.
Look at these links.

Regarding your run of Disk Utility & the error messages - Did you use Disk Utility to do the repair? Or did Disk Utility say it could not repair? If the latter, DiskWarrior can probably fix your problem. DiskWarrior by Alsoft http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/index.html
Suggestion - Instead of using an online storge service, buy an external firewire enclosure hard drive and use it to make backups of your Mac's internal hard drive. Having a backup is very important. Currently, if you have a hard drive failure, all of your files will be lost.
I also noticed you are running Tiger version 10.4.3. You should update to the final version 10.4.11 which includes some bug fixes & improvements. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
