Console window in Encore CS5

While changing my workspace I came across this window. Looks pretty handy!
Anyone had to use it before? I have no idea how I magiced it into existence but I made damn sure I kept it in my workspace. AFAIK there are no mentions of it in the Adobe help files, or online.
Dan

Looks like a back door into a troubleshooting module. Never seen it before, and my quick look did not reveal it in any routine workspace checks.

ENCORE CS5.0 CRASHES EVERYTIME WITH WINDOWS 7 - 64BITS

Hello the forum,
I am really desappointed with ENCORE CS5.0
When we used this soft in CS4 Version with WINDOWS XP on a Laptop computer, it runs slowly, but it runs.
we called the Adobe support and after a lot of discussions, they said that we need to have a better computer for these softwares (PREMIERE and WEB suite)
We bought the CS5.0 version and a new PC : (october 2010)
DELL Studio XPS 8100 - Intel Core i5 processor (3.2 Ghz - 4 Mo)
Memory 4 x 2 Go - 1333 MHz DDR3 Bicanal
DD 1.5 To Serial ATA 7200 Tr/mn
graphic card : 1 GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460
Windows 7 - 64 bits
with this new PC, we immediately have the problem : impossible to open it correctly, very long, and when its opens, it blocks when we try to do something.
we recontacted the Adobe Support (France) and after a lot of trials (sending files, direct manipulations on our PC), they didn't understand and say that we have to wait for CS5.5 version which must solve the problem. they will contact us as soon as the version will be available in order to obtain it with a special price, in respect of the client damage. But we have never been informed, and when we call them to know when we can have the new version, they say it's too late, no special price possible,....
so we never know if this CS5.5 solve the problem
QUESTION :
Is there somebody who had this problem and is there a solution ?
we are sure that the problem is between ENCORE and Win7 but how to solve it
hope my english is clear enough !
thanks for your help in this matter

Issue with Adobe Encore CS5.1 and Matrox MAX H.264 encoding on Windows

Here's some information on an issue that we've identified with Matrox products and Encore CS5.1:
"Issue with Adobe Encore CS5.1 and Matrox MAX H.264 encoding on Windows"

Still flickering on Encore even when rendered in MPEG-2 DVD in Pemiere Pro CS5.5. Looks perfect in Premiere Pro.
Any other ideas?
EDIT: Was looking for Google for people with similar problems to me and I came across this http://forums.adobe.com/message/3959757?tstart=0
I am currently re-rendering the video in PAL DV Widescreen MPEG-2 DVD and using maximum render quality.

Encore CS5 won't boot up from desktop icon in Windows 7

Encore CS5 won't boot up from desktop in Windows 7 64bit version.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for that reply.
I have always opened it separately from Premiere in the past. In this instance I have some MPEG files unrelated to Premiere.
No problems during install or reinstall. No error messages when clicking on the desktop icon.
It seems to not be part of the Cloud suite at all.
The system is Windows 7 Professional SP1 64bit with 16gb memory i7-2700K CPU @ 3.5Ghz.
Lets know if more information needed. One thread suggested that it needs an update to pxengine (owned by Roxio) but I could not locate it at their site – it appears to be integrated into their programs, of which I have Roxio Creator 2012 installed.

Encore CS5.1, Issue burning onto 8.5GB DL DVD using WIndows 7, 64bit

Is anyone familiar with the inability of Encore CS5.1 to burn 8.5GB dual layer disc using Windows 7, 64bit. After many failed attempts, it turns out that you need to set Encore as Windows XP compatability in order to get the disc to burn. Is this just a glitch with Windows 7 + Adobe Encore CS5.1?
The problem with changes the compatability on Encore is that you lose the dynamic link with Premiere Pro CS5.5.
Any other suggestions on being able to burn without changing the compatability of Encore?
btw, 4.7GB DVDs work fine.
Thanks,
Gianni (JohnQ)

To burn dual layer you MUST right click the Encore icon and select Run as Administrator from the popup window... this is NOT the same as using an Administrator account
I think you can select to "always" Run as Administrator from that popup window

Encore CS5 fails to load in Windows 7

I have been using a trial version of Premier Pro CS5 and today paid up to get a S/N and registered. Premier loads fine and seems OK at first glance, but Encore CS5, which looks as if it came in the package, fails to load. It freezes at the loading graphic with the 'Initializing transcoding' apparently stuck. Is Encore not included in the package I paid for or have I missed something?

Well... this is what I found out and what I did to "fix" my problem. First my situation was that I had 2 drives, a lite-on blu-ray rom drive that was supposed to basically read anything, and a pioneer blu-ray burner. I was going to use the rom drive to do my reading and reserve the burner for just that, burning. What I found out, because Encore would freeze when loading, was that Adobe uses a Roxio routine to go out and get the information about all the drive in the environment to know how to use said drive(s) for this session. The Roxio routines hang in an endless loop, for me, on the rom drive. When I go into device manager and disable the rom drive, Encore loads just fine and I can master... whatever, and burn or create ISO images and go on my merry way. When done, I can re-enable the drive and use it as intended except for trying to use it in Encore.
This happens in CS3, CS4, CS5, and I think I tried it in CS5.5. Roxio never has "fixed" the problem.
My fix to fix the problem.. I replaced the blu-ray rom drive with another pioneer burner. Turns out the new drive was a newer version. So I moved the older version pioneer to the lower drive letter and use it as the reader drive for anything and setup the newer pioneer drive as my burner drive. Encore loads with both drives enabled, I can master anything, and eveything works fine. I've given up trying to have a rom drive for "just reading".
Also, given up testing to see if Roxio has ever "fixed" thier init routines for Encore. It always works this way with 2 burners on my system. One I use as a "reader" all the time which is also my backup burner and one as my "production" burner. And BTW, I usually build on ISO image with Encore and use Image Burn to burn my multiple copies output.
This is my "fix"!!

Encore CS5: The software that's used to decode the media is not available on this system...

Hi guys, I am needing assistance with this matter. I have read up on similar threads (mostly commented on my Bill Hunt), but I fear I may be missing something. Can anyboy please assist me?
Here's the background:
OS: Windows 7 64-bit.
Video footage format: AVCHD 1440 X 1080 (1.333) 25fps, 48KHz
Photoshop Images: 1440 X 1080 (1.333)
I have been running CS4 Master collection for the past year and a half, with minimal hassles in encore (except for the early patch that needed to be downloaded and applied for some or other transcoding error in Encore CS4).
Right, so we bought the CS5 Master collection upgrade, and all applications are running great, except Encore. The moment I have completed editing my hour-long video in Premiere Pro CS5, I "send to Encore" via Dynamic Link. (This is the way I have been operating countless times in CS4. However now, in Encore CS5, the programme opens with all the regular project settings and saving dialogues, but the the moment it looks as though Encore is going get going, it stalls and doesnt respond, forcing me to close and try again.
So I tried the other way around. I restarted Encore, created a new project, in a new project folder, encore opens, and I chose to Import as "new timeline" selecting the Premiere project of choice. This time around, i don't get a crash out of Encore, instead I get the following message:
"The software that's used to decode the media is not available on this system.
Installing the correct decoders for the files you are working with may help to correct the problem."
So I googled the matter, and came up with Bill's response to the same problem (expect the date that it was posted was back in 2009). I am would desperately like to know if there is a solution, a patch, a workaround of some sorts that can help me get back to my usual workflow. I am pretty screwed without encore at this present moment, and the work is piling up. Can anybody help?
Many Thanks,
Matt

Very poor video quality after transcoding in Adobe Encore CS5.1

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I have very poor video quality after transcoding the video file (MPEG) in Adobe Encore CS5.1. Below you see my used settings in my filmproject.
The problem exists after transcoding in Adobe Encore CS5.1. I checked all steps and found out that there is no problem until transcoding. My exported file in MPEG has very good video and audio quality.
Facts:
1. Camcorder: Panasonic AG-AC160AEJ
Operating System : Windows 7, 64 Bit, Ultimate edition
Source files: MTS files
Recording settings (clip settings):
Type: MPEG Movie
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Frame Rate: 25,00
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1,0
2. Sequence settings in Premiere Pro
Sequence was created from Clip directly with settings above.
3. Exporting settings in Adobe Premiere Pro:
Match sequence settings was activated. Now other changes were set.
4. Exported File:

Data Transfer Rate: 25920 kBit / s
Frame rate: 25
Audio:
Bit rate: 384 kBit / s
Channels: 2 (stereo)
Frequence: 48 kHz
5. Transcoding settings in Adobe Encore:
I used different transcoding settings such as automatic DVD Transcoding, CBR and VBR.I also set “use maximum render quality”. But all results were always the same: very poor quality.
Why does the encore transcoding cause such bad video quality?
How can I solve this problem?
Please help me soon.
Best regards.

Hi Ann,
1) I did not only „Automatic (based on source)“ options in my tests, but also many other customized options.
The results are very poor. I have done a new test with the following settings. The result is also poor:
Download link: http://www.klavierlehrer-bayern.de/download/test_mpeg2dvd_1.m2v
Export Settings:
Format: MPEG2-DVD
Preset: Custom
Codec: MainConcept MPEG Video, Quality: 5

Minimum Bitrate (Mbps): 5
Target Bitrate (Mbps): 9
Maximum Bitrate (Mbps): 9
GOP Settings
M Frames: 4
N Frames: 12
Use Maximum Render Quality: [active]
Multiplexer: None
2) Why shouldn’t I use the “Match Sequence Settings” in exporting? Because of the big output file size?
I used it and the results are very good as I expected:
Download link: http://www.klavierlehrer-bayern.de/download/test_MatchSequenceSettings.mpeg
Export Settings
Match Sequence Settings [selected]
1920 x 1080, 25 fps, Upper, Quality 50
User Maximum Render Quality: [active]
3) I tried also Dynamic Link in PremierePro (to Encore).
The results are also poor.
4) I will test also LagarithLoslessCodec and frameserving +DGMPGDec. But the video is vertical long drawn-ot.
I think I did not use it correctly.

Problem timing slides to audio in Blu-ray slideshow in encore cs5. Help!

I'm using a 2006 mac pro 1,1 with 7GB, and I'm trying to make a blu-ray slideshow with encore cs5. There is about 20 minutes of music for 99 slides. I click "fit slideshow to audio" and the time per slide increases to about 12 seconds, which is correct, and when I preview the slideshow it
plays back correctly. But when the blu-ray or image is burned, the slides last only about a second or two each and the audio cuts off abruptly at the end of the 99th slide. This project, by the way, has two slideshows which play one after the other. Both have the same problem.
Operating System: Mac OS X (v10.6.4)
Video display card / driver version: Quadro FX4500
I examined the blu-ray file streams created by encore cs5 with VLC. The slide transitions (cross dissolve) were about 2 megabytes each and played correctly, but the slides themselves seem too short at around 300kb and don't play back at all. Video Blu-rays work fine; the problem only shows up on blu-ray slideshows. When that same slideshow is burned as a dvd, by the way, it also works fine. What's going on?

I have just the same problem with Encore CS5 running on Windows 7 64 bit:
When i create a slide show with music,the length of music defines the
length of the slide show every thing works fine when i play the e show with preview
function in Encore. When i burn it on a blu ray disk it works fine
(in sync) playing the BD disk on the PC, but when i play the BD
when i play the BD disk on a BD player (Sony BDP-S300 or BDP-S470) the music
stops many seconds before the slide show is finished.
Burning the slide show with Encore on a DVD everything works correct.

ATI Driver Problem - Encore CS5

Hi All,
I have spent a number of hours now trying to troubleshoot an issue with Encore CS5. I have it installed on a HP 6930p Notebook computer with a ATI HD3400 onboard video card. Whenever Encore starts, my screens go black and I get an error "display driver stopped responding and has recovered". I have the latest (22nd October 2010) drivers installed and I have tried changing nearly every setting for the display card, but to no avail. It is obviously the driver, because if I change the driver back to the standard Microsoft driver, the software works, but with limited resolution and without the ability to extend screens. If I also revert to the oldest version of the ATI driver, it doesn't black out, just crashes with a "application has stopped working" error.
Now I could just keep changing drivers when I use Encore, but this is a bit extreme and you would think it would work. All my other CS5 software works ok... PPro, AE, Photoshop, InDesign etc.
Operating System is Windows 7 Enterprise 64Bit with 4GB Memory.
Anyone got any suggestions or advice? Or is anyone else having a similar issue and managed to solve the problem?
I could always install my older version of Encore CS4, but does installing Encore CS4 after CS5 has been installed cause any issues or problems? Is this the easiest answer?
Regards, John.

You have to do what you have to do, but I would be reluctant to settle for EN CS4 with a CS5 suite - dynamic link is further improved, and you'll be giving that up or complicating it.
(Yes, there are some users with problems, particularly doing Bluray, and they refer to using CS4 at times to fix things. I like dual installations.)
No real idea on the video card issues. I do think it is interesting that it is only Encore.

Runtime error affecting only Encore CS5

My CS5 Creative Suite 5 Production Studio has run fine up to yesterday, on my 64 bit PC with Windows 7 Professional.
Only Encore CS5 is affected...and only when I try to start a new Encore project. The crash does not happen if I open an existing Encore project...which opens and works as usual.
New Encore projects won't open and get the following alert, crashing Encore: 'This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application support team for more information.
I can't finish my projects and need fast help.

Hi Stan ... I can't open any new project or save it. With the 'Basic & Advanced window open I enter the name and location of the new project. Click OK and then it opens momentarily and a RunTime Error window opens and closes Encore. It says Windows is looking for a solution, but none is found. As a result I can't change preferences.
Up until I held the CTRL SHIFT ALT key upon opening, Encore would let me open past projects..just not new ones. Now I can't open any of them...new or past.
But I can open the test project that I open with holding the 3 keys down while opening.
On older projects I'm now getting a new alert "Could not create Blu-ray ntsc sd mped-2.epr. The path is not valid.' Tried 5 past projects and none opened.
Very frustrating. All my other Adobe programs open...PhotoShop, Premiere, etc. Just Encore is affected.
On another note...over the last few months I get 4 DLL alerts that it can't find them...I just close them and everything runs well...as did Encore up to a few days ago. May not be related.
Thanks for your help.

Encore CS5 very slow when selecting the File tab

Good morning.
This is the first I have ever experienced this. Encore CS5 is extremely slow when I try to select the file Tab. All other tabs like Edit are fine. It is also takes forever to Save anytime. I usually just use Encore for short no menu DVD's I'm building a DVD with a few sideshows and an hour of video. I haven't started the menu yet. I updated the latest from Adobe yesterday and I am current with the Window 7 64 bit updates. All other applications in the Master Suite work fine. I think my system should be enough to run Encore without any problems. Any suggestions? I'm all ears!...

To Adobe, Are We Going to See a Fixed Encore CS5?

I am posting this as a long time Adobe user. I have installed the CS5 suite and am using Encore CS4 because when I import pre-encoded Blu-ray assets into Encore CS5 it says the disc is full. The assets are not too large to fit on a Blu-ray.
I see a lot of problems posted in this forum and the general attitude is wait until a fix or CS6... Well that is what was said about CS4...
I have submitted an error report on this issue a few weeks ago. It would be nice to know if anything was being worked on as upgrades are supposed to be an evolution of the product. Pardon my frankness but Encore seems as if it is an afterthought compared to the rest of the CS suite.
Thank you.

$400.. Yikes?
I've been a long time beta tester and hadn't kept up with the retail price. I purchased the full version when I first started using it back in the Passport days, I think it was $299 back then.
I see the cheapest thing they have is "MusicTime Deluxe" (Encore Lite) which is $120, oh well, I should've checked the price first.
There's also the free:

ENCORE CS5.5: Audio Conforming Is Eating Up My Hard Drive

Hi guys. I am using Adobe Encore CS5.5 (Windows 7) for a DVD project. My project is pretty much a series of audio files synch with .PSD images. In other words, I do not use real video. Rather, I Use Images wity audio running in the bagground of the timelines.
Encore keeps conforming (non-stop) the audio files of my project, and it's eating up my hard drive space at lightning speed, say 537GB of free space in like 30 mins or so.
After much research, I found that the Media Cache Files Folder is being loaded with replicas of my audio files with the following extensions .ac3 48000.cfa and .ac3 48000.pek
I use seperate hard drives for both my C: drive (for software) and D: (for my project files files). As I stated above, I have plenty of room in my C drive, but Encore keeps eating up the free space, this, of course, while I have my project running.
I resaved the project with a different name. I even re-installed Encore, and the result is the same: Audio keeps conforming and the Media Cache Folder is loaded. When I empty this folder, I get my HD space back, but the process keeps on going. For those who do not know, the Media Cache Folder can be accessed in Encore from Edit--> Preferences-->General -->Media: Media Cache Files --> Browse or directly from C:/Users/Username/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Common/Media Files, where "Username" is your Computer's User Account name.
This is by Far the most annoying software glitch I have ever seen in my life. I am so frustrated. My project is quite complex and I don't want to start all over again. Any help or insight will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your reply.
I have 6 timelines. The total program length, as shown in the build tab, is about 3GB used. And it's a DVD project, not BD.
I use MP3 files and I can see the audio keeps conforming from the Progress tab. There's a Stop button,but it's grayed out, so I can't stop it. The setting I am using to transcode is a3c as you mentioned.
The funny thing is that I even deleted the project's audio files from the timelines and Project Assets as well. At this point the audio files don't even exist in my project, and yet the Progress tab shows the audio keeps conforming and my hard drive keeps being swallowed by this monster. That's driving me Nuts!
Originally, and of course, the audio was Untranscoded. I performed the transcoding and yes, PSD images are brought directly as asssets into Encore. I probably should have done this from Premiere, but a) I have never used Premiere, and b) I was just learning how to use Encore by watching some video tutorials.
The thing is that my project was complete and everything was set, including audio conforming. I even outputed a disk image, which I then burned into a DVD. At the time I did this my project was still somewhat small as I just wanted to test the whole process with just a few files. The thing is that at this point I didn't realize what was happening in the background with my hard drive's free space until I later got a Windows warning message of low disk space. And that's when the saga began for me.
Once again, thanks for your help.

Encore CS5 crashes on importing _sessionFiles....ac3 for blu-ray.

Ok, for starters, I've been using cs3-4-5 for a while to create DVDs, no problem whatsoever. Even with ADL (Adobe Dynamic Link). I've been able to burn 1 perfect blu-ray project, it was on a fresh install of CS5. Since then Encore CS5 keeps freezing when re-importing the files right after the transcoding. It always freezes at the same place on many different projects;
The filename is: _sessionFiles_Asf_session_1_audio.ac3
I've tried many things: run as admin, holding ctrl/shift/alt on startup, cleaning cache. I even used the compressed files from the transcoded folders. My audio and video are of the same length. I just re-installed the suite today just to try it again on a clean install.
I've also tried the audio as pcm:

I was able to burn a blu-ray disc with my latest project but not without any hassles!!! I had to remove all audio from the menus except the main one. The software allows me for 1 menu with audio along with my main timeline. If I add audio to another menu, it crashes.
My project is a 4cam live show with 1 audio track.
The source format is from my HDV Camera. So it's a .m2t file.
The audio track is from the soundboard, a .wav file.

I've done another project and have encountered the same problems. So what I do now is main menu with audio, rest of the menus no audio.
I like Encore coz I can do popmenu with it, other softwares don't offer it. With other softwares I can do a perfect blu-ray with audio on all menus but no popmenu. That's why I'm working so hard to try to resolve the errors with Encore, so I can have projects with popmenu!!! If other softwares would allow for popmenu I would drop Encore.

Console window in Encore CS5
