CS4 Encore Encode Fail

I imported my Premiere pro sequence into Adobe Encore, using Adobe Dynamic Link, My premeire pro sequnce won't transcode while in encore..
any bugs, or just my sequence?

Hi Bill, thanks for your post!
I only have one timeline + one .avi file on it..       I tried building this time as an .iso and it actually worked!!   I then put that to DVD using Nero and whala, DVD is working!
Although,  now there is another issue, and this one has me stumped!!
I have quite a number of chapters etc in this dvd (less than 18 per menu)..    I have linked them all up, IN ORDER, and have made sure they number in sequence (when you have to pick options like 'next/previous/chapter' etc..  
If I view the DVD on my computer its fine as I can use the mouse to select whatever chapter I want.. however,  when I play it in a DVD player,  scrolling through the menu brings about some funny actions..    It will completely skip some headings..
Eg.
Neck    * will highlight
Back    * will highlight
Arm                                    this one will skip - but if I shuffle around a bit and hit 'left' 'right' a few times, eventually this one will highlight..
Leg      * will highlight
All the chapter points are done correctly, and if I just watch from chapter 1 and hit 'NEXT' on the remote, it will go through every chapter no dramas - it's only when in the menu that headings will be skipped.. 
I've checked the project, everything is fine, and there are no missing links or anything..    There are also less than 18 links to a menu (when I first built this menu I had an error show up saying you could have no more than 18 to a menu)
But yea,  this has me stumped..    As it's a dvd series people will be buying - I sorta need this to be working properly..    I've filmed/edited this project as a favour to a family member who is in the natural health line of work - this is a training package which clients will often need to get to specific chapters of the DVD - and it will be immensly annoying for them to have to stuff around with the remote to get to where they need to be!
Any ideas?  Thanks heaps!

  • Encore "Encode failed" randomly

    Two full days (and partly nights) trying everything to solve this problem, reading every single topic about that on the forum... I thought I'd better ask a question to the community before throwing my PC  through the window...
    Basically here is the history of my problem :
    I created an Encore project, containing 58 videos, organized in 14 menus.
    I checked the project : no errors.
    I tried to build an iso image : everything went well for 10 minutes, and all of a sudden Encore crashed.
    I understood that this comes from the transcoding of the videos and that I had to do it manually.
    As this point you should know that my videos are created in Premiere Pro CC, encoded (through "Export/Media") with Adobe Media Encoder with the MPEG-DVD format and PAL-DV pressets. When I imported them first in Encore CS6, as timelines, the video asset (MPEG video, m2v format) and the audio asset (wav audio, wav format) have a "don't transcode" status.
    I right click on each individual asset, modify the transcode settings to "automatic", and ask for "trancode now".
    And here is the issue : sometimes it would transcode, and sometimes NOT ! Just randomly...
    At the end, as you can expect, I have 1/3rd of my assets trancoded and 2/3rd not !!! Frustrating................
    I tried the following :
    Edit / preference / general / transcode asset using adobe media encoder application -----> doesn't solve my problem
    Create a new projet, import only one timeline and try to transcode  -------> sometimes it would transcode (then I can manually locate transcoded file in my usual projet by right click on the asset / locate the trancoded file), but sometime not....... (I told you in the title, this is random...)
    Encode with Adobe Media Encoder with an .avi and try the all process again -----> sometimes it would transcode, sometimes not (but still I miss transcoded time lines)
    Checked the titles for length issues, special character issues, etc. -------> found no particular issue (at least comparing the files, I see no explanation of the randomness of the problem)
    Right click / Run as administrator  ------> doesn't solve my problem
    Free space in my C driver (now I have 27GB of free space, I guess it's enought for Encore to work, right ?)
    ... and a lot of other stuff, which I won't list here...
    AND I STILL HAVE HALF OF MY ASSETS UNTRANSCODED !!!!
    Technical details
    .m2v file (generated by Adobe Media Encoder with MPEG-DVD format and PAL-DV pressets) : 720*576, 25 frames/sec.
    .wav file (generated by Adobe Media Encoder with MPEG-DVD format and PAL-DV pressets):  1536 kbps
    the original material is mostly .MOD files, but also .avi (it should have no influence because from two .MOD files originated videos, one would transcode and the other not)

    You see, it is saturday night, 9 P.M. I've been in front of my PC for more that two days now with no success. I just surrender at this point and hope that one of you guys can find a solution for me. And to be honnest, I hope that this is just a stupid mistake from my side, this would mean that I won't have to spend again hours on this topic.
    Looking forward to hear from you all !!!
    Jacques

    As Richard has explained, when you had your assets as "do not transcode," you should have left them alone. with the exception that they might fill the disk up, but none of the errors you have had point to that.
    Although normally, you'd set the project format to a3c audio, and the wav files would show "untranscoded."
    You should always run Encore "as administrator." It may have nothing to do with the errors you are seeing, but it invites odd problems. Just run as administrator and take that off the table.
    The specific error you are getting has most often been due to filename length. Max is  80 characters including spaces. I can't imagine after the troubleshooting you've done that they are this long, but who knows! Yes, special characters etc can be a problem. I don't recall the issue, but I would also look at file path length/depth.
    Look also for gaps in any of the Premiere sequences.
    > Free space in my C driver (now I have 27GB of free space, I guess it's enought for Encore to work, right ?
    No. Temporary files/caches/transcoded files can quickly swell things. Do you have a separate drive for the video files, etc?

  • "encode failed" encore cs4

    I read some of the other problems with this but I have an extra little tid-bit.  If I just import the .avi and burn it with no menu it works fine.  It is when I incorporate a menu and burn that I get "encode failed".  I am not real technical so if some one has a dumbed down answer for me I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks!

    The process is simple I did it actually 2 different ways and got the same result.  1st the project was made in Premiere Pro 2.0.  2nd just went to file-->Export-->Movie & that is the file that I imported as an asset into Encore CS4, dropped the .avi into a new timeline and burned a dvd no problem (without a menu).  Then when I got the video approved I went back in, chose new blank menu, put 11 chapters in the time line, then dropped those chapter markers into video buttons on the menu, checked my links, didn't have any errors, went into build dvd, got about 3 sec. in and boom!! "encode failed", what does an aneurism feel like? Does any of this give a better picture?

  • "Encode Failed" whilst building disc in Encore CS4

    Hi folks,
    I've built a Premiere Pro CS4 project which, after adding a menu in Encore CS4, I'm trying to output/"Build" a disc from Encore.  The project's assets comprise original AVCHD video from my Sony Handycam and, from these, some After Effects CS4 generated segments (which I first converted from AVCHD to MPEG2 HD using Free HD Converter V1.7).
    Although I've previously produced SD DVDs from PPro2, I'm new to CS4, and working with HD video.
    Q1 - having built a project from AVCHD video, is it possible in theory to export from Encore to MPEG2-DVD (PAL 16:9)
    Q2 - if the answer to Q1 is "yes", do you have any idea why during the build disc process I receive an "Encode Failed" message within a matter of seconds (whilst using export setting MPEG2-DVD PAL High Quality 4Mb VBR 2 Pass in Widescreen 16:9)?
    I'm using Windows 7 Professional 32-bit on a laptop with an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU P9600 @ 2.66GHz, with 4.00 GB RAM.
    Thanks in anticipation!

  • Adobe Encore CS4 - Encore Failed

    I recently had a problem with Adobe Encore CS4 with finalising a project to DVD, and to make a long story short I had my computer totally wiped and reinstalled all programs.The problem I now have is, I export a HDV file from Avid Media Cmposer and import it to Encore but when I try to Transcode it, I get a "Encode Failed" message.
    I have tried other formats "Quick Time Movie" and "Quick Time Reference" which works fine, but I get a colour burst in the video which is not in the original footage and it only appears in Encore.
    I appreciate any help to solve this problem.

  • Why Encode Failed in APPro CS4

    Why Encode Failed in APPro CS4. Used Win XP with SP3. I have made several DVDs without any critical problem before using CS4 PPro & Encore. Now it has given-up on me. Following things been done at present. CS4 is installed in C;\ and Project files saved in D:\(separate drive) 1. Removed all unwanted programs including Virus program, etc., This machine only has APPro CS4. All firewalls been disabled. The audio and video plays ok on time line of APProCS4 with little bit jerky (of course I was expecting this on a Pentium4). C;\drive been formatted recently due to these problems and also defragmnted all drives. Made No screen savers working, no wall paper, Swap file >>virtual mem adjusted for D:\ , optimised the desktop by selecting,"adjust for best performance" 2. APProCS4 project saved ok. It's a 40minute program recorded on XDCAM EX1. Used File>>Adobe Dynamic Link >>Send to Encore ok.. 3.Used very short filenames and sub directories to save on Encore. Eg. file name used "HanOne" 4.On Encore, Selecting End Action and TitleButton selections were done ok. 5. When saved on Encore, file size was 2.48GB and 2.22GB were free. Audio:PCM,standard: PAL 6. When on Encore, Choose File >> Build >> Disc (to make the DVD), after few seconds time it shows " Encode Failed " while start to Transcode .prproj(video) file in Build Progress Window. I would appreciate if you could suggest anymore things I have to try other than above. Thanks

    Unless I missed something, it sounds like the failure is in Encore. If so, posting to the Encore Forum would be the ideal. There, give full details of your Encore Project, such as number of Timelines, and how you have placed your Assets onto those Timelines. Give details on those Assets, and how you have Imported/Linked those to Encore would be appreciated.
    Good luck,

  • Exporting in Adobe Media Encoder fails in CS4 after CS3 is removed.

    There's an issue with Adobe Media Encoder in CS4 where encoding will fail after CS3 is uninstalled.
    If you never had CS3 installed on your machine - no problem.
    If you never had CS3 and CS4 installed at the same time - no problem.
    If you had CS3 and CS4 installed concurrently, then uninstalled CS3 - Houston, you have a problem.
    You will need to uninstall CS4 and then reinstall CS4.
    The error message is:
    Encoding Failed
    Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted.
    One more thing I forgot to mention, this is a Win-only issue.

    >Does anyone understand this?
    Simple:
    1. Open a Windows Explorer window and navigate to the folder that contains "dynamiclinkmanager.exe"
    2. Open a
    second Windows Explorer window and navigate to the folder that contains "Premiere.exe"
    3. Arrange the windows side by side.
    4. Right-click on "Premiere.exe" and drag to the first explorer window, targeting between the files so as to avoid any specific file.
    5. Release the right-hand mouse button.
    6. Select "create shortcut here" from the pop-up menu.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 Export fails with Media Encoder CS4 "Encoding Failed"," Could Not Read From Source.

    There has never been a history of Adobe CS3 installation on the brand new MAC Pro I am using prior to installing Master Collection CS4, despite other posts claiming that chief cause of this issue is a previous CS3, Beta or trial installations of previous versions. I simply had a straightforward installation of CS4 and have had trouble since day 1.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Master CS4 three times, two times with the action script cleaner for CS4. I tried changing Adobe Cache folder locations to alternative drives. I ran shift start many times to correct any inconsistencies and corrected for permissions using disk utilities repeatedly. All updates have been installed and I am still getting the same error when exporting my timeline to Media Encoder CS4, be it a large High Definition project or a small one consisting of few stills.
    No matter what presets I chose, the job appears as one of the items in the render qeuee of Media Encoder CS4 and sits there with the status WAITING until i hit Start Queue. When I do, it still says WAITING under Status and at the bottom corner of the window it reads : Loading "project name.prproj" and after an average of about 6 minutes, a yellow caution sign appears. No render whatsoever takes place. When I click on the yellow caution sign, it reads a log of all errors in connection with each job, including the ones that have gone before it. Here is one:

    Please any gurus out there know how to troubleshoot this damn thing on Mac, I really appreciate it. I have not yet encountered any posts of Mac owners with no previous CS3 installation having this issue. I am in the middle of 3 projects with tight deadlines and need your urgent help. THANK YOU!

    Hello There,
    I resolved the issue through a simple process of elimination. So simple in fact I wonder how I missed it. Since there has been no history of prior CS3 installation on this machine and every conceivable trick was applied to resolve the problem (refer to my original post earlier in the thread) ending in frustration, the problem had to reside in a factor or series of factors that were only present in this machine. Of the two remaining causes different in compare to other machines, I had to look into the possibility of any hardware and/or software conflicts. After all, this very same installation works perfectly fine on my colleague's Apple Macbook Pro and several Windows machines.
    It turns out that I had installed Pro Tools on this machine that comes with all kinds of optional plug-ins in the so called ignition pack. One of these optional plug-ins is called IZOTOPE (three varieties include Spectron, Trash and another one that escapes my mind). They were all lite version licenses that would automatically pop up on their own when you would start a program where they had been residing. One such program where an association existed was indeed the Premiere. An annoying dialogue box directing you to buy the full version when you would start the premiere would refuse to go away. Sometimes it would even start on its own culminating in a a permanent dialogue box.
    The cause of the problem was right before my eyes and I had overlooked it. Once uninstalled using IZOTOPE clean uninstaller on step 4, the problem was resolved. Projects are now loading very fast into the AME and encoding begins in earnest. I have never had any issues ever since.
    Long story short, if you have any plug-ins specially the ones that are loading upon the start of any program or the ones that reside inside the premiere or the ones that start on their own independently, they could be one of the highly probable causes of this error. I have seen other similar posts complaining of plug in folders inside premiere that needed to be moved to resolve the issue for instance the ones that needed to be moved to AE folders. If you are a plug-in admirer, I would suggest to look into them seriously.
    On the side note, many combination and causes may lead to the same error. I am not claiming that this is the solution for everyone.
    It must also be noted that I applied the trick of creating a shortcut of Premiere (and naming it exactly as such) and dropped it into the Adobe Dynamic LInk folder (even though this was suggested for windows)and have changed the adobe Cache locations to an alternative folder on a separate drive. I haven't been able to establish conclusively if the latter steps are also essential in fixing the error on MAC but I can confirm that since the latter steps were taken before the uninstalling of Izotope plug-ins and i still had issues, probably uninstalling those plug ins or finding a way to move them to a place where they don't interfere (if you absolutely need to keep them) is the one essential step that solved the problem.
    Hope this helps.

    Unknown error.
    I'm really not sure what the problem is. Everything seems fine in all my other movies but something in this one (and one other one) seem to be causing these failures. Any advice you could give would be really appreciated.

    What are the source files in this (and the other offending) Project? Do they match those Sequence/Project Presets?
    Does the Audio in these source files differ in any way?
    What is different about this/these Project(s), from the others?
    Often, Encoding will fail because of gaps in the Video. However, the error message is usually "Failure to Return Frame."
    Good luck,

    This is the error when I even tried to insert it into Adobe CS5

    While there are a few Adobe employees who read/post here... the vast majority of people here are other users
    Of those, I will GUESS that 90% or so are PC users
    If nobody has any ideas... they will not post a reply
    My ONLY idea was about moved files, based on the message you reported

  • Error compiling movie - unknown error - encoding failed

    I am running a 2.40 GHz Quad Core with 8GB RAM
    I have a deadline on a video project in Premiere Pro CS4 with 4 video timelines and 8 audio timelines with many transitions and key frames with hours on two sequences of work completed and ready to export to an AVI file and burn a DVD.  The 30 minute sequence with only 3 timelines converted to AVI file okay.  The larger sequence with more timelines, keyframes, etc. will not export through Adobe Media Encoder for a Microsoft AVI file or an Uncompressed AVI file - getting the above error message each time.  Getting same errors when exporting a dynamic link to Encore to burn a DVD. 
    The sequence acted funny when I loaded the fourth video timeline so I deleted it and waiting untill the completion of the sequence to add any of that fourth timeline to that sequence and I did not even try to load the fourth timeline that I wanted to add...
    Here are the error messages I am getting:

    Error compiling movie.
    Unknown error.
    I have been going back & forth with Adobe Support with troubleshooting advice.  I am running a 2.40 GHz Quad Core, 8GB RAM - had to upgrade to Windows Vista 64-bit for computer to recognize more than 2GB RAM, had to purchase Premiere Production Premium CS4 because Adobe no longer supported Premiere Pro 2.0 & Adobe does not support Windows XP-64 bit (so Windows Vista was pushed down my throat...)  I have followed the Adobe instructions to Optimize Windows Vista for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, I have uninstalled and re-installed the full program more than once.  I have defragmented my computer, I have performed the disk cleanup and deleted all temporary files, etc. to make sure my computer is running optimally.
    I have read the other Adobe threads that talk about CS3 & earlier similar error messages, but have found nothing with this particular message.  I have deleted the fourth timeline off of the video and tried to see if that would make it work, but it did not.
    Does ANYBODY have any suggestions on how I can further trouble shoot to get this project out or know of a way that I can export this project to another program to get an AVI file and a DVD burned with custom menus...

    I am using a 1TB Hard drive with 300 GB free space.  Yes, I always have to delete projects off to make room for new projects.  I have 3 750GB hard drives in my computer in addition to the main C drive that I am using.  Once a project is completed and a client is satisfied, I move the final AVI file off to one of the auxillary drives and delete the entire project from the C drive.  Then I defragment, delete temp files, disk cleanup, you name it to get the drive ready to use for the next project.  I have followed the Adobe protocol for all of this as well as my computer vendor.  I got rid of 95 GB of temp stuff several days ago with the disk cleanup and another 45 GB after deleting another project off my computer...  so looks like I am doing these things..please advise if you know of anything else.
    In the meantime, I am going to try to export to the MPEG2 -DVD export to see if this will work.  I did get an uncompressed file of 31 GB created which errored out at 24:24 minutes into the project and the AVI will not play so it is worthless so I am going to delete it.  I went to the timeline at 24.24 minutes and there is nothing unusual about that portion of the clip. This is the largest and most tedious timelines of the project because it is stacked 3 video timelines high with just a a few pieces of the 4th timeline in the project.  24:24 on the timeline is just another keyframe of moving the keyframes up and down to show which video camera version I want visible in that portion of the video - fading in and out of the project with the key frames...
    I will let you know if I can get an MPEG2 file.  Will this be a good enough quality to put on a DVD.  This is a standard NTSC 4:3 format video...

  • Encode Failed message during transcode attempts

    Hey guys,
    I've got a 45 minute video shot at 1920x1080i on a Everio GZ-HD7-B camera that's due for a review in only a couple of days. I've got the project to a near-final draft in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, and have been working on authoring a DVD in Adobe Encore CS4.
    Just a quick note, I'm on a home-built PC with an Intel Core 2 Quad at 2.6 ish GHz with 6GB of memory, 2 hard drives with a combined total of 2TB. On the HD that I'm saving my project in and exporting to I have a little over 100GB in space left.
    Now, as far as I can tell I've got the menus (imported from .psd files created in Adobe Photoshop CS4) set up correctly and the flowchart is complete, but when I go to transcode the project and export the project to a [widescreen] DVD image, or even if I select the imported (using Adobe Dynamic Link) sequence and hit "Transcode Now..." I get an error message saying "Encode failed". Thie comes up only seconds after hitting transcode. I've tried changing the encode settings, but nothing changes (perhaps with the exception of one setting that delays the 'encode failed' message by about 15 seconds).
    If I try to transcode one of my audio tracks I also get the message "Could not create image buffer", and hitting 'ok' only bring up the same error message again.
    Is there anything I'm doing wrong? Can I get Encore to play nice? If I want to bypass using the adobe dynamic link feature and export from Premiere Pro, what settings should I use to preserve image quality, allow me to make the disc, and perhaps even to preserve the chapter locations?
    Thanks, and if any more information will help resolve this error please let me know. Thanks!

    Hey guys,
    Quick update: I've tried exporting from Premiere Pro using the media encoder into an MPEG-II DVD [Widescreen] format. I then imported the Video and Audio output files as a new timeline in Encore. Transcoding the audio was successful, but when I try to build the DVD image I get the same "Encode Failed" message.
    Oh and I don't have internet on my editing computer.
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    W

  • Encode failed - No problems in Check Project

    Encode failed - no problems shown in Check Project. Is there a way to post screen shots of the various information required for other users to have in order to comment meaningfully on what might the various problems might be? I have a document in which I have saved various screen shots of the progress up to the Encode Failure. I also have other projects that have transcoded successfully. Any help is appreciated. This is a new avenue for me, so some protocols may be lacking, but I catch on eventually.
