AME won't stop encoding or process won't end

This doesn't always happen, perhaps about 70% of the time. I'm almost always encoding .h264. I encode a file right out of After Effects (Export>Add to Media Encoder Queue) and the file encodes properly and when finished shows a green checkmark next to the file in the queue. But the encoding window continues to show the file encoding, with the progress bar at 100% and will stay there. If I close the Encoding window (CTRL-2) and reopen everything looks fine. No encoding in progress. But now when I try to quit AME I get the message "Encoding is in progress. Do you really want to quit?"
Help. please?

Additional info - using the latest version of AME from CC 2014(2014.0.1) on Windows 8.

  • AME CS4 Stops encoding after about 10 min without failure message

    Can anybody help me with the following problem?
    I have edited a Video of about 15 min length in Premiere Pro CS 4 and now i am trying to export it.
    But no matter which format or resolution i choose, the adobe media encoder stops encoding after about 10 minutes withoit giving any failure message. It does not really crash, it just stops, timer is frozen, but the media encoder program still reacts to inputs! When i let it start encoding again nowm it won't start encoding at all so i have to restart the computer in order for it to start encoding, but it will again encode for only 10 min again!
    I am using an acer i7 3610qm laptop with 4 gb ram and win 7 64bit
    I have updated to the latest versions of premiere and media encoder and also i have tried deleting the preferences, no change...
    Does anybody have a clue?

    You might also want to check your GPU settings in Premiere (File > Project Settings > General).  If the Renderer is set to CUDA,  switch to Software Only and try encoding the sequence again.

  • How can I stop the extracting process ?

    How can I stop an extracting process it's taking hours and I can't wait much longer, the pause and cross symbols won't work. I think I tried to save it to the wrong place.

    See if using the system task management is able to shut it down.

  • Media Encoder Stops Encoding with the New CS5.5

    I just upgraded to CS5.5 a yesterday and having some issues encoding an 1 1/2 program for a DVD. The program doesn't seem to crash per se, just stops encoding. The task manager says it's running. I tried to encode the same sequence, but shorter and have the in and out points go through the part where it always stops and it worked fine. It's just when I try the entire sequence it stops. Anyone have any experience like this with CS5.5 just coming out?
    Thank you,
    Doug

    Well, my problem happened with CS5, not 5.5. I don't encode enough to be able to say that it continues to be a problem. However, I would still pull up my CS4 AME if I needed to encode something again. But honestly, it sounds like the same problem as I had. My problem may have been further complicated by running CS5 as 64 bit.
    For the record, I was never able to fully encode the f4v file I was given. AME behaved as though it was corrupt at the same point each time, shaving off about a half hour of the presentation. For several days I thought it was only a half hour presentation! I was given this file by an a/v company that caters corporate meetings. It was a video that combined a Powerpoint presentation and the audio from the podium. I asked for a file that I could use for Flash because their world is all Quicktime.
    As I said, in the end the only way I could salvage this project was to extract the audio by encoding the f4v with Quicktime Pro and then use a third party software to marry it to the PPT presentation for a flash movie. That is a whole other issue I wish Adobe would look into, being able to encode PPT for flash. Corporations are doing some really cool presentations for business but MS just doesn't play well with Adobe Flash. It would really help me to be able to take my client's stuff and put it up on the web easily.
    The young guy I work with said it was the lack of Quicktime codecs on my computer that was the hangup because in all likelihood they encoded the f4v with Final Cut Pro.
    I work in a broadcast HD tv station. We are attempting to transition our clients commercial material to database for use on-air using computer files they provide (to get away from video tape). I can't tell you how much trouble missing codecs has been with this. Clients make their stuff in all kinds of environments and it can be professional or amateur. Sometimes the video is there but the audio is missing or vice versa. Sometimes one 30 sec spot will be fine, but the next one in the same file will take a 30 sec spot and stretch it into a 5 min timeline, losing the audio and playing the video slo mo. Our editing system is Grass Valley's Edius so that adds a whole new problem with codecs. It took us a long time just to figure out how to open a .mov on a timeline. So in the end we replaced one headache with muliple tape formats to a bigger headache with multiple codecs and proprietary software programs.

  • When I enter the website, Firefox stops responding and I have to end the process from the Task Manager. How do I solve this problem?

    I am running Firefox 4.0 beta 7 on Windows XP Tablet Edition OS. When I enter this site using Firefox, the browser stops responding and I have to end the process using Task Manager. However, when I open it with other browsers such as IE8, I am able to view the site as per normal. This only happened when I updated my browser to Beta 7 and I did not have such problems in the previous betas.

    There is [[Flash]] content on that page.
    Do you have a problem with Flash on other websites?
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Media encoder STOPS ENCODING!! help!

    I am encoding my premier pro project in Media encoder, but it stops encoding every time. It happends on different locations, its not in the same spot every time. I had sooo much problem with permiere cc.
    Any one knows a solution to this???
    I am exporting H.264 HD 1080p 25
    I really need to get my project done

    Peferling... I have a positive update! I went to the area that typically made things die. I noticed it was at the tail end of where I inserted a sequence into another sequence. I also noticed I had three tracks in that section with graphics. So I copied all the tracks from the inserted sequence... then removed the inserted sequence and re-inserted the actual tracks. At this point I no longer had an inserted sequence. I then simplified the three tracks of graphics into one. Re-applied my transitions and did last tweaking. I once again tried exporting as H.264 HD... et voila! It worked! Something must have been breaking it.
    For now I'm okay and have been able to export into other formats. I want to thank you so much for your input. Regards, Nelson

  • Media encoder stops encoding at the end of the video (Premiere CC 2014)

    I've finished editing a video (just under 4 minutes). When I try to export it to a windows media file (HD 1080p) it always stops encoding at around the 50% mark.
    I have tried exporting to a shared network drive as well as the local hard drive with the same results.
    I have it set to: Mercury Playback Engine Software Only
    I have tried to export directly from Premiere and from Media Encoder.
    I looked at where it stops when exporting from Encoder through the preview window. It seems to reach the end of the video and stops right where I fade out to white and the music ends. The interesting part it that the timer shows 50% left to complete
    It doesn't crash... it just sits there with the timer increasing and never continues
    I'm not using any plugins.
    At the point where it stops, I have a "Dip to White" transition on the one video clip and no audio transitions applied to the soundtrack since it ends nicely with the video.
    Please let me know if there's anything else I can/should explain to get some help. Thank you so much for your help.

  • How to stop the backup process....

    How to stop the backup process....
    Okay, so it happens nearly everytime you synch your iPhone with your iTunes? Easy. As soon as it starts, hit the "X" in the bar where the backup process is being shown, this does NOT STOP the synching process, ONLY the backup process.
    HOWEVER, keep in mind that a few times during the week (depends how often you synch ur iPhone) it will be good to let the backup process let run fully.
    There we go. Problem solved...

    i agree its what i do i backup whenever i add a new app, or take more pics etc its exactly what i do its what ive been saying on all these threads talking about backups etc, im hoping in 2.0.1 will be bug fixes about this sort of thing...

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS4 stops encoding!

    OS: Windows XP 32 bit SP3.
    Hello, I've been working with Premiere Pro CS4 and Media Encoder CS4 since 2008 and it always worked fine. Now i've got a big problem that I don't understand: Media Encoder CS4 stops encoding at about 10-12 seconds after the encoding starts.
    The curious thing is that the software really does not crash, it just stops encoding, the time counter freezes, but Media Encoder does not crash itself, you can add or delet video, edit preferences, etc.
    It doesn't matter what kind of video I try to encode, I've tried Premiere sequences but also independent video files. It always happens the same and I really don't know what to do.
    I have the latest versions of both software... can anybody please help me??

    That software and OS are both pretty old.  You may find there aren't too many people still using them to help on this one.

  • How to stop a Copy process?

    For years I have never been able to stop a Copy process.
    When I click on the "cross" button (near the progress bar) in the Copy window, nothing has ever happened!
    Copy refuses to stop!
    Any tip or clue?

    Thanks for your reply!
    I did this. Sometimes successfully, sometimes not...
    But I think this not normal and this is not THE solution.
    Why does Apple didn't fix this issue? As I already wrote: this problem last FOR YEARS.
    See, I'm very simple: I see a button, I click on it, I'm expecting it works...
    Am I asking for "too much"?
    I'm also very surprised not finding anybody discussing this issue on the forums...
    Should I be the only one experiencing the problem?
    I'm not very proud of this particularity...

  • PFRD 11.1.1.4 - How to stop the In-process Reports Server

    I'm running an "out-of-the-box" PFRD 11.1.1.4 installation in Windows XP SP3.
    According with documentation:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/b32121/pbr_strt006.htm#BEHDJFHD
    To directly start or stop the in-process Reports Server using a URL, enter the following in your Web browser:
    http://machine_name:port/reports/rwservlet/startserver
    http://machine_name:port/reports/rwservlet/stopserver
    startserver works.
    stopserver returns:
    REP-50171 : Authentication failed.
    Tried
    http://machine_name:port/reports/rwservlet/stopserver?authid=weblogic/passwd
    same error.
    Commented the line:
    <!--security class="oracle.reports.server.RWJAZNSecurity" id="rwJaznSec"/-->
    in rwserver.conf.
    Same error.
    The only uncomented elements in "rwservlet.properties" (original configuration) are
    <server>rep_wls_reports_pfurtado-lap_asinst_1</server>
    <singlesignon>no</singlesignon>
    <inprocess>yes</inprocess>
    Did any of you managed to stop "in-process" reports server using the reports servlet?
    What credentials did you use?
    Thanks & Best Regards
    Paulo

    Thanks RZ!
    The line you mentioned was already as you described.
    According with the documentation:
    [Starting and Stopping Reports Server|http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/b32121/pbr_strt001.htm#i1005629]
    If Reports Server is running as an in-process server through the Reports Servlet, issue the following URL:
    http://your_host_name:port_number/reports/rwservlet/stopserver?authid=admin user/admin password
    Note:
    authid is Reports Server's administration user name and password. In Oracle Reports 11g Release 1 (11.1.1), the default security is based on standards-based Java EE security model through Oracle Platform Security Services. For a non-secure Reports Server, this user is defined in the identifier element.
    I added the identifier element to rwserver.conf and restarted WLS_REPORTS, but after this the in-process reports server failed to start with the usual generic exception.
    I finally found the missing step in:
    How To Secure Showjobs Web Command In A Non Secured Reports Server In Oracle Report 11g? (Doc ID 1242614.1)
    The thing is that the identifier element has to be placed in the right location inside rwserver.conf:
    The needed change is:
    FROM
    <queue maxQueueSize="1000"/>
    <pluginParam name="mailServer" value="%MAILSERVER_NAME%"/>
    TO
    <queue maxQueueSize="1000"/>
    <identifier encrypted="no">....type here your user/password....</identifier>
    <pluginParam name="mailServer" value="%MAILSERVER_NAME%"/>
    So although using the default non-secure reports server, the identifier element has to be present in rwserver.conf for rwservlet/stopserver to work as described above.
    Otherwise the needed authentication will fail as described.
    Regards
    Paulo

  • How to stop th activation process of DSO in process chain

    Hi,
         we are loading the DSO by two load processand followed by activation process, but here one of the load process failed and i need to correct it manually, but when i make the failed request red in dso the next activation process is started. can i stop this activation process?, because i had to run this process after i manually correct the load request.
    thanks

    Hi,
    You can stop or kill this job, by identifying the work process number and app. server from job log of activation job. by right clicking on activation process -> display message-> you can get this details. once you know about the server and work process, then go to SM51 -> select the app server and then select the work process and cancel it from menu options.
    When you are loading 2 requests in parllel to a data target, it is always better to have an AND process before activating the Data in DSO. It will aviod this kind of errors and killing other jobs.
