Cs5.5 media encoder

I see that the media encoder for CS5.5 advertises as being faster. I am wondering if this is a repeat of the original advertisement for CS5.0 or is it really faster? The CS5.0 media encoder can take 36 hours to encode my blu ray media out of Premiere before doing an import into Encore; I would like to know if CS5.5 would give me any time savings.

It just came out today. Download the trial and give it a whirl. (The trial now includes full codec functionality.)

Have CS4 use CS5 Media Encoder

I have CS5 Master Collection installed, but because I'm running XP x64 I'm having to continue using Premiere CS4. That's all well and good, but is there a way for me to set preferences so that when I export from Premiere CS4 it uses the CS5 Media Encoder rather than the CS4 one which it currently defaults to?

You're implying that by my saying "Shame" I am criticising Adobe. Absolutely not.
That's not my implication at all. As a matter of fact, I encourage criticizing Adobe for things that don't work as they should--most of my own posts are usually in this vein. However, this is not a case of something not working as it should, which is what I was pointing out: you can't be disappointed (or at least you shouldn't) in something that was never said to work in the first place. That was my point.
Anyway, glad you're considering Windows 7. I think that, after an adjustment period (particularly since it appears you skipped Vista--not a bad idea), you'll find Win7 to be a pretty great advancement for the Windows platform. As an added benefit, you'll get to play with all the toys we get to play with

Premiere Pro CS5 - Media Encoder Crash when Exporting to MPEG-2

System:
Core i7 920 @ 3.8 Ghz
Gigabyte X58A-UD3R
12GB DDR3 1600
External Sound Card - M-Audio ProFire 610
OS Drive - 2x300GB WD Raptors - Raid 0

Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 and Media Encoder CS5 continually crashes or hangs every time I try to export to MPEG-2. I can successfully render to every other codec without any issue, but need the MPEG-2 for an Adobe Encore Project.
The project is approximately 38 minutes long and contains AVI and MP4 files, all of which were ripped from DVDs as I'm producing a reel for a producer who provided his DVDs for me to rip and use as content.
Possible issues:
1.   Currently have Magic DVD Ripper and DVD Fab installed (codec conflicts?)
2.   Originally ripped the DVDs at 630x360 (my mistake - hadn't really worked with a DVD ripper before and was the largest avi pre-set) and I'm exporting to MPEG-2 standard 720x480 Widescreen) (I know I should've just ripped them as the original lossless MPEG-2 files - I'm a tool)
2.   Blank space in the timline (there are a number of these)
I would like to get some input before I try to export to MPEG-2 again as I blew a capacitor on my old mother board (Gigabyte x58-ud3r) after I had gotten my computer to start rendering a MPEG-2 after about 50 tries to export/launch media encoder set on MPEG-2. I just installed my new motherboard to replace it. Clearly MPEG-2 taxes the system more so than any other codec (from what I can tell). However, I thought the issue with the blank space/no media in the timeline was fixed with CS5. I saw in a previous post that someone thought that ffdshow was conflicting with AME. I don't have ffdshow, but I believe that's a ripper program like Magic and DVDFab.

I experienced this at one point. Searching the WEB I saw suggestions that there was a problem with a recent version of Quicktime. (I have no idea why the quicktime player would have an impact.) However, reverting to an earlier version of Quicktime fixed the problem. Search this board using quicktime as a search phase. The quicktime web site allows you to download the earlier versions. I'm not at my editing machine, but I believe that I am at version 7.5.2.

Encore CS5/Media Encoder CS5 freeze when transcoding

I'm trying to encode avi files for DVD. I have tried building my project in Encore & doing "build disc". Note: I am creating a Disc image, not actually burning any disc. It starts by transcoding; it gets through the video pass, and when it gets to the very end of the audio pass, it freezes. I have tried this 4-5 times with the same result. Oddly enough, I also had it work twice. Go figure.
Since I had 3-4 files to transcode for DVDs, I thought I might be able to save time (and try another approach) by using the Adobe Media Encoder. Same deal. It got about 99% done with the first file and FROZE.
What I've done:
1. Verified no DLA is running (at least, no Roxio or Nero software)
2. Verified the PhHlap64.dll is the latest (3.0.90.2 or whatever it's supposed to be)
3. Installed latest Windows 7 (64bit) and CS5 updates
4. tried different user accounts (both administrator accounts)
Here is what we do have installed on this machine:
Firefly
MediaShout 4.5
Quicktime 7.6.6
Symantec Endpoint Protection 11 (mr5)
Itunes
That's all I can really think of. I just ran the apple updater and see there is a new (7.6.8) verison of quicktime. I'll update that and see if it makes a difference. Any and all help is appreciated!

Update: We have discovered an issue where you can get this behavior if the source is a Premeire Pro sequence whose sample rate doesn't match that of the clips in that sequence. The solution is to match the sample rate of your sequence to that of your clips. Please let me know if this does not resolve your issue.
Thanks,

I had some 96/16 audio from an H4n recorder. AME just sat there. Also had the same problem exporting directly from PPro without using AME. Just sat there, no error, just nothing.
Changed the final sequence samples to 96kHz sampling and problem solved. That's a real bummer, since Adobe definitely pushes the sort of "edit anything" mantra a lot, and having to tailor sequence settings to a recently added audio clip is a step in the wrong direction. Glad to know it CAN be fixed, since these renders need to happen, but need that one patched up.

CS5 Media Encoder fails to start.

Hi All,
Two days ago whilst encoding an AVI file my Display driver failed then recovered halting AME. l needed to reboot to start again, and the Display driver failed again but recovered. I have since been able to encode the file but fear the graphics card may be on the way out. My problem now is l want to encode another AVI but AME fails to start after the logo apears a message says that AME has stopped working. I seem to remember a forum member in PPro giving advise on deleting the Pref file as it may have been corrupted, but l can't find any reference to it anywhere. I'm working with Windows 7 64 with Adobe Production Premium. l hope it's just a matter of deleting these files. Can any one help please. All updates have been installed to these programs.
Thank you

CS5 Media Encoder - black bars of DOOOOOM

Hi Folks,
Need a little help from my Friends:
When I put a 720 x 576 .mov file through the video encoder, it's got black bars on the left and right of the actual video. I've got a feeling that Adobes Encoder doesn't particularly like anything other than a video with an Aspect Ration of 16:9. Anyone know a fix for this?
Also, if the clients videographer cannot provide me with a 1024 x 576 .mov (16:9) file instead, is it possible for me to get his 750 x 576 down to the required size of 512 x 288?
Any help on this, appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Boxing Boom

I'm pretty sure you can export to any dimensions, but this is nothing to do with AS3 so please post it to appropriate forum

Media Encoder Issues After Upgrade from CS4 to CS5

I've been running CS4 and doing encoding to .flv and .f4v formats for sometime now without any issues. I downloaded Photoshop CS5 and then the entire design CS5 suite soon after. Since then, I can not encode videos properly. Both CS4 Media Encoder and CS5 Media Encoder export audio with no video.
Any ideas of what might have happened? Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Justin

You shouldn't be running version 5.5 of the Camera Raw plug-in in CS4 either. Update to ACR 5.7 ASAP.
One should ALWAYS run the LATEST release of ACR for your version of Photoshop, no exceptions. Each new release brings unheralded, unannounced and sometimes even unacknowledged bug fixes and improvements, beyond support for newer cameras.
Staying with an older version just because your camera is already supported by it is a very<euphemism>unwise</euphemism> decision.

Adobe Media Encoder Fails to start

I recently upgraded to CS5, fully 64-bit, but because a lot of my plugins and etc are still 32-bit, I installed the 32-bit support so I could have premiere & after effects CS4 and CS5 on the same system. But this seems to have created a but with media encoder, When I do a render que in media encoder, it doesn't start at all, just hangs there saying contacting dynamic link manager. The only way to render out of Premiere CS5 is to use the export feature within it. I also get a problem with whenever I say export media, it says there is an update for the media encoder, when there is one for CS4 media encoder not CS5 media encoder. And all the processmanagers and mediaimporter are running in 32-bit for some reason.

I recommend getting the suite. Mixing and matching CS5 and CS4 not a good idea. I took the plunge and so far I don't regret it even though I have run into some bugs that are slowly getting fixed. CS4 engine not the same as CS5.

Cannot access mpeg in CS6.0.2 Adobe media Encoder. Have done clean reinstall and update still no luck.

I am running SC6.0.2 AME in several Mac Pro towers running 10.6.8. CS5 media encoder is fine with mpeg but cant get it to work in CS6. The mpeg option in the preset browser will not bring up the export settings dialog. The update from 6.0 to 6.1 was touted as a fix for this but it doesn't work. How can I get this to work?

Which: Export AE Render Queue ? PP Export Media ? Media Encoder?

The output of my PP and AE project ( combined video and animation ) looks terrible when exported or queued in PP or the CS5 Media Encoder.
It renders slow and has shown poor performance in the Mac OS X Activity Monitor.
When output to the AE queue ... the project looks great,, encodes super fast, and 'finally' shows awesome performance in the Activity Monitor.
I spent too much time trying different settings before I tried the AE renderer ... which, by the way, is buried away in the Compostition Menu under Add to Render Queue.
First, It is standard to output as a File command .. so there should be a Export / Save As ... > to the "Render Queue" .. and who cares what a 'render queue' is .. all I want to do is save file "A" in format "B".
So ... basically , my question is / are:
Why does both the PP Export and CS5 Media Encoder produce such bad results?
and / or
What are the correct settings for PP Export and CS5 Media Encoder to produce excellent results matching the AE Render Queue?
Why do you have multiple inconsistent, confusing and dysfunctional Exporting / Saving options?
Seems that the CS5 "Media Encoder" should be junked and replaced with whatever engine is running inside the AE renderer .. and all other Export / Save / Add to Render Queue / and God knows what else you guys call it ... should be routed to the new Media Encoder.

Thanks again as always Todd.
I just can't get some of this ... just when I think I'm getting somewhere .. blam.
Why is there a "com.adobe.dynamiclinkmanagerCS5" in my trash ( Mac OS X ) every time I turn on the machine?
There are posts here at Adobe and one on Creative Cow Discussions .. but no one at Adobe answers.
"Why?"
I have a huge plugin problem and yet again I will have to reinstall the system software and CS5 to get it to work long enough so I can spend time trying to figure out the vocabulary to explain to you, Apple, and CoreMelt what is going on. It seems to be within Dynamic Link.
Do you have a 12 Core Mac OS X?
Would your tech with a 12 Core Mac running OS X 10.6.6 install CoreMelt Plugin V2 - Lock & Load?
Would your tech explain to whomever needs to figure it out why / what doesn't work .. and fill in the blanks at Adobe?
Would someone explain it to me?

Encoding Speed with Media Encoder Issue?

I have a 5 hour and 36 minute timeline in Premiere Pro CS5 which is composed of mixed assets- some at 29.97, some at 30 FPS, etc. The timeline is exported to Media Encoder and set for Match Source Attributes Highest Quality (Quality 5.0, VBR 2 pass, min 3.00, target 6.00, Max 7.00 MBPS). NTSC 720 X 480 (0.9091), 29.97 FPS, PCM 48hz, 16 BIT stereo. Format is MPEG2 DVD.
Estimated file size is 18138 MB. The file takes approximately 36 hours to encode. Is this normal?
Premiere Pro CS5
Media Encoder CS5
Windows 7 64 BIT
2.4 GHZ
Intel Quad 4
700 GB free space on hard drive
6 GB RAM

Is this normal?
Probably yes. Aside from the normal conversion with 2 pass VBR, which even under ideal conditions could require up to 3 times the duration of the footage (in your case this makes about 15 hours), you are causing additional operations to conform the frame rates on the Premiere level of things. Also, since this is handled as a Dynamic Link process, you may be a bit short on RAM, which may slow down things further. And then of course the usual with disk speed and file I/O etc.. So it more or less sounds normal, but you should not let the initial rough guesstimates discourage you. Many times these values will get much lower after a while of transcoding when the encoder has a much clearer picture and statistical data about how long it actualyl takes to encode so and so many frames...

FLV conversion problem with media encoder

I am using the CS5 media encoder to convert mp3 movies to flv for a site. The encoder is bringing the video over fine but not the audio. Can anyone help?

CS4 Media Encoder Presets

Does anyone know if CS5 Media Encoder Presets are compatible with CS4 Media Encoder?

The solution! :)
Now I only have one of these two folders containing all presets. The "other folder" is a symbolic link to this folder using this tool:

Now it doesn't matter whether I am defining a preset in Premiere or in AME. It works fine!

Adobe Media Encoder (CS5) has encountered an error (WinFile.cpp-759)

I have a 714 MB Xvid file that I want to split into smaller pieces. I have gone successfully through a similar process earlier with a larger Xvid file using the same version of Adobe Media Encoder (CS5). It appears that no matter which output video format I choose, the process crashes with the following error message shown in a new pop-up dialog:
"Adobe Media Encoder has encountered an error. [..\..\Src\Win\WinFile.cpp-759].
(Even the source program file line number 759 in the above error message is always the same, regardless of my chosen output file format.)
The only option available from this point onwards is the "Continue" button. When I click Continue the program terminates with the Windows program crash message "Adobe Media Encoder CS5 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. <Debug> / <Close program>"
My search for other similar problem reports revealed that some user(s) has/have experienced a very similar problem in CS4, but the source line number was slightly different in CS4. Both problems are probably caused by the same error in Adobe's software. The small difference in source line numbers is probably due to some (minor) and probably unrelated changes to this C++ source module (WinFile.cpp).
It might of course be the case that this particular input video file has some rare encoding or other embedded problem. However, the fact that I can view the video without problems using Windows Media Player does not support this theory.
Apart from this message board I could not find any other avenue to report this bug to Adobe (without paying for support - which I am obviously not going to do as this is clearly a programming bug in the software). Hopefully some Adobe developer responsible for Media Encoder maintenance will read this forum from time to time and would subsequently inspect the source module for any obvious defects. I could supply the source video file with which this problem can be reproduced at will.

How to open Adobe Media Encoder CS5 in Windows

Please excuse my ignorance but how do you open Adobe Media Encoder? I've searched everywhere and cannot find a solution. In Adobe help,it says it's in the start menu under all programs but all I have been able to find is a folder with a bunch of dll files. If I try to export a clip from Premiere Pro, It doesn't open, no error message or anything, simply nothing happens. I found an update but that still didn't do anything, still no luck in finding it. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

On my computer folder structure is...
