hello.
I need to create an export from after effects to ame in javascript
How can I do it?
something like this?
app.exportToAme("Comp 1")
thanks

Thanks. now i have another problem heheh.
When i execute this script:
var bt = new BridgeTalk;
bt.appName = "ame";
bt.target = "ame";
var proj = app.project;
var item = proj.item(1);
app.executeCommand(app.findMenuCommandId("Add to Adobe Media Encoder Queue..."));
bt.body =
"var enc = app.getEncoderHost();"+
"var frontend = app.getFrontend();"+
"enc.runBatch();"
bt.send();
after not wait until the file is queued in ame and continue with the execution

  • Why does Premiere Pro CS5 process audio source before exporting clip in AME CS5?

    Hello everyone, my first post here. I am currently trying out the trial CS5 Master Collection on my MacBook Pro. I've been using Premiere Pro CS5 to put together family videos. I select a certain portion of a sequence and queue it for export in Media Encoder CS5 in the format H.264 for iPod with video and audio.
    Now in AME I have a queue list of about 5 clips from the sequence. But when I hit the Start Queue button, the bottom left of the progress bar states "Adobe Premiere Pro processing audio source from [then file name]"  for all 5 clips from the sequence then creates the first output file.
    Then it moves to encode the second and again states "Adobe Premiere Pro processing audio source from [then file name]"  for all 5 clips of mt sequence then spits out only the second output file.
    This continues for the remaining 3 output files. The total sequence length is ~32 minutes with transitions and it takes about 35 minutes to export which is all consumed by the process audio source of the 5 clips in my sequence for 5 separate times.
    Is there a certain reason why Media Encoder or Premiere Pro does this process of audio source? Is this process necessary or needed? I experimented with choosing different output formats but the results are the same. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Now that's pretty good follow-up to your first post, and quickly too! Nice detective work.
    As you have found, there is basically a Render/Replace operation going on in PrPro, to get the material in the correct form for AME.
    Thank you for reporting, as it saved me, and others, from basically saying what you said.
    Good luck, and sorry that you beat us to the punch.

  • Exporting WMV using AME

    Could anyone tell me how to create a preset that allows me to export a .wmv file from AME? I have Flip4Mac Studio Pro HD installed, but can't seem to figure out how to get it to work with my CC suite. Please advise.

    I would like to know the answer to this too, but I suspect the answer is that Adobe still hasn't bothered to implement it despite apparently being aware of user demand for several years.
    Like you, I have Flip4Mac Pro so at the very minimum it should be available under the QuickTime component (Format > Quicktime, Codec > WMV) but no, that would be too easy.
    Not having WMV export in 2014 is ridiculous.
    Amen. I have the Telestream components also. They work fine in Apple Compressor.

  • Really need help exporting F4V to AME?

    Hi,
    I'm new to CS4.01 and am trying my first export of a sequence (1 minute)
    CS4 settings were HDV Pal 1440x1080 1.3333 etc.
    I have rendered my sequsence and it plays fine in CS4 timeline.
    I now go to File-export-media and then Adobe Media encoder opens with all its options.
    I have put in a very simple preset and hit start queue.
    Nothing happens except it says at the bottom loading project.
    Am I missing something?
    Are you supposed to export file from CS4 to a folder then, import it to AME? or should this work?
    many thanks

  • Export settings question AME 5.5/ OSX

    I have an .mov in the AME cue, I need to trim a bit of the file and when I go to the export settings I do not see the mov in the window. If I move the scrubber I see "rendering" but thats it.
    Any help plz?

    Let me guess: OSX Lion. If so, then this is a bug introduced by Lion, and we're working with Apple on a resolution.

  • CC2014 causes footage to export sideways using AME??

    Recently, as in since the 2014 update, about 8 out of 10 times I export footage using Media Encoder, it exports footage sideways (as in the left-right is flipped to bottom-top). On top of that, sometimes the footage isn't all exported sideways. Sometimes it's just the b-roll, or the footage is exported sideways but the subtitles aren't. What the heck is going on???

    Sounds like a bug with particular footage. Can you post a screengrab of your Premiere Pro sequences of the same frame?

  • Premiere CS5 AME Export slower than direct export?

    Hello everyone,
    I am testing premiere cs5 premium, and having some issues with AME export render times.
    When I export media to AME it shows about 6hours to render a sequence which is 15min long.
    Export settings :
    H.264 1280x720 25fps
    VBR, 2-Pass, Progressive
    Target 8Mbps
    Max 10Mbps
    Input Squence is directly from AVCHD handycam with native settings no resizing but some simple color correction
    However when I do the same export directly from Premiere Pro the render time drops to 38mins (which is btw also not so optimal)
    My Hardware Specs:
    Intel Core2Quad @ 2,40Ghz
    Ram : 8GB (premiere uses 6GB)
    Scratchdisk: non raid 1TB with 130Mbps average read/write
    (Raw Files on Scratchdisk)
    I used to export similar sequences alot faster with cs4 on the same machine..
    What could cause this problem?
    Thank you in advance for your answers

    Thank you for your quick reply, but It couldnt solve the issue..

    First of all, the remaining time indication in AME is not very accurate.
    well thats also my experience, but after waiting over an hour, it was still below 25% on the scale.. so I paused and switched to direct export
    Harm Millaard wrote:
    Most of the time and especially with H.264 exports, there is no significant difference between direct export and AME.
    Obviously in this case "most of the time" wont apply.. because I did export it directly from within Premiere 6 times faster..
    There must be a problem somewhere between AME and PremierePro during reading the squence and rendering it.

  • PP CC 14 & AME CC 14 Exporting Sequence to MPG2 DVD Problem

    I am trying to export a HD sequence out of PP CC14 to AME CC 14 for DVD.  All my settings are set, exporting to MPG2 DVD.  In the PP export window, if I choose either "Export" (which renders the files through PP) or "Queue" (which exports sequence to AME and renders the file there) both finished files are Re-transcoded when brought into Encore CS6.  That should not be the case.  It is transcoding the file twice and producing terrible quality.  Exporting to a H264 for blu-ray works fine, only the audio is re-transcoded.
    I found in the previous version of PP CC and AME CC (not the new "14" version), the workaround was to render everything through the PP Export Window and NOT send to AME.  If I did that, Encore CS6 would show "Transcoded or Do Not Transcode" in the video status window - and once again, would only re-transcode the audio. 
    Has anybody else experienced this? Or have any idea what I am talking about?  How does anybody else export to DVD?
    My workaround now is to use the H264 blu-ray file, import into Encore, choose "Max Render Quality," and burn the DVD that way. 
    I am running the New Mac Pro 10.9.3
    Thanks...

    Re Stan:
    This problem is happening when I am burning to DVD, not blu-ray. 
    When I do burn to blu-ray, the H264 file created in the PP 14 export window works fine in Encore - no re-transcoding. 
    The MPG2 file created for DVD in PP 14 has to be completely re-transcoded in Encore.
    On this particular project, I had both a h264 file and an mpg2 file, one for blu-ray one for DVD.  I just ended up using the h264 file for DVD, and let Encore re-transcode that file for DVD.  It was better quality than using the mpg2 and have encore re-transcode.
    I know it sounds confusing - let me know if you understand.

  • Quicktime Export Error: "An output module stopped responding."

    I'm experiencing an odd export error whenever I use any Quicktime codecs:
    "After Effects error: An output module stopped responding. The file may be damaged or corrupted. You may need to restart After Effects."
    Similarly, Adobe Media Encoder hangs when outputting to Quicktime codecs. Neither program makes any progress at all before the hang occurs. At that point, I have to manually "end task" to exit. Also, it doesn't seem to matter what I try to export. In AME, for example, I can simply try to convert one video format to another and have it hang, so I don't think the problem is due to a problem with the source settings or effects. Also, I'm not attempting any multiprocessing since I don't really have enough RAM for that. Other output modules work, so I'm just exporting image sequences for the time being.
    System specs:
    Windows 7 64-bit
    Intel i7-2600k processor
    8 GB RAM
    GTX 580 GPU
    Software:
    Adobe CS6
    AE Plugins include Tracode Suite 12 and Optical Flares
    Quicktime 7.7.3
    Any thoughts on this? I've seen very few references to this error in other places, and not really found a solution that seems to apply to my situation. Thanks in advance for your help.
    Josh

    Thanks for setting me in the right direction. Clicking through to the 25 :: 101 error page (http://myleniumerrors.com/2013/01/06/25-101-4/) led me to a reference about other software, such as remote access software, using the same ports that AE needs for communication with its various processes. In my case, LogMeIn was the culprit. I had no idea that AE even used TCP for these types of operations, so that's very helpful to know.
    *EDIT*
    That worked temporarily, and now it doesn't work. I ran into a similar effect when I first disabled the Windows Firewall. But of course, as I type this and piddle around, it works again. It SEEMS like if I open AME and click into the output settings and scrub through the video preview, it makes everything work when I go to actually export. That's exactly the type of thing I would say is completely unrelated under normal circumstances, but at the moment all I know is that it is currently working and I don't want to test anything else until I finish the rendering I need to accomplish today. I'll work on it more later and post an update at that time.
    Thanks,

  • Media Encoder: outputs "Media Offline," freezes during H.264 Export

    Hi,
    I've been experiencing multiple issues with AME...firstly, on occasion when exporting timelines with linked AE comps, one or two of those comps will output with "Media Offline" frames even though the comps are online and fully playable in the timeline. I have to scrub through my output files now to ensure these frames aren't there, and I've had a few slip by, so this is a big issue that needs to be addressed. Exporting directly from Ppro works fine.
    Secondly, when exporting H.264, AME just plain stops encoding in the middle of exporting. This isn't repeatable across different timelines, but if it does freeze on a particular clip, attempting to export that one timeline will always freeze at that same point. Exporting directly from Ppro works fine.
    These have happened on multiple timelines, multiple projects, across two machines: a 2010 mac Pro and a 2013 macbook pro retina.

    Hi Mark,
    I did install the CC 2014.0.1 update and the issue remained. I had a colleague tell me that he experiences the same issue for Format= Quicktime, Codec= h.264 when he has the "limit data rate" option checked with a value. When I unchecked the limit data rate (of my standard 10,000 kbps 720p preset) I got a clean render devoid of the previously mentioned artifacts. However, it defaulted to a 70,000 kbps data rate which of course is higher than I'd like/need. For now I guess I'll be exporting .mp4 h.264, but I'm still curious why the limit data rate doesn't behave like it did in CS6.

  • AME Bug: Creates new CFA file for each clip queued!

    Here is my workflow:  I have a 60 minute sequence of a dance performance of about 20 dances.  I queued in AME 20 exports to H.264 files by moving the workspace to the segment I want to export, adding it to the queue with a file name, and repeating for the next section (dance).
    For each queued export I make a copy so I have a low and high resolution export (40 in total).  Finally, the last queued export is a MPEG DVD file for Encore.
    The issue is that when I start the queue, the first thing AME does is conform the ENTIRE SEQUENCE'S AUDIO (not just the clip).  Then it starts the export.  On my computer (Core i7-2600, 24GB RAM), it takes over 15 minutes to conform a 60 minute sequence (the CFA ends being close to 2GB).  While it's conforming the CPU load never goes above 10%.  The export starts for the first clip and that takes less than 90 seconds with all 8 cores pegged at 100% and the GPU over 50%.
    Then AME startes the conforming AGAIN FOR THE ENTIRE SEQUENCE instead of re-using the CFA file it just conformed!
    Why doesn't it re-use the CFA file?  Or, why does it conform the entire sequence if all I'm exporting is a portion?
    And why isn't conforming a multi-threaded process?
    At this rate, it will take all night and consume close to 50 GB of disk space in CFA files.
    Here is what my queue looks like:

    Actually, I think it's working as designed when it conforms upon export.  See the online help HERE.
    It says, in part:
    Premiere Pro does conform audio in uncompressed clips when you use them in sequences with non-matching sample rates. However no conforming is done until you export the sequences or create audio preview files.
    The audio in my Canon MXF file is uncompressed 16-bit Linear PCM, so when I bring in the MXF files all PPr does is create PEK files.  This is really nice since I don't have to wait for conforming to begin editing.  Creating PEK files is really fast compared to conforming.  There is a caviat, though...
    The max file size from my camera is about 2GB.  Anything longer will span multiple files.  If I copy the contents of the CF card from the camera to my computer, the browse to the files using PPr, it will find all the spanned clips and interpret them as one longer video file.  Not problem, and that's how it's supposed to work.  BUT, since PPr is treating all these spanned files as one longer video clip, it WILL conform the audio.
    So to speed things up, I just bring in all the spanned files separately, then sort them and insert them into a sequence in order.  It works fine, and no conforming.
    My problem with AME is when it DOES finally conform, it's not re-using the CFA file.  In my particular case, I'm taking one long sequence and exporting different portions of it as separate exports.  I would think that AME would conform the whole sequence once, then re-use it.  But no, it sees each as a separate export, so each export gets its own identical (but different named) CFA file.
    So now my current workflow is:
    Import in all the video as separate MXF files.
    Import audio from digital recorder (house audio).
    Mark the clapper sync points on the video and audio files.
    Add video clips to a sequence in ascending order
    Add to the sequence the audio track and align the sync markers
    Balance the audio tracks with the mixer
    Create a new sequence
    Add to the new sequence the first sequence
    Render and replace audio so I can get a waveform (it helps find edit points) and conformed audio
    Add titles as needed
    Edit the timeline, transitions, add Encore chapters, etc.
    Export clips to AME queue
    Save early and save often!

  • Need help exporting video

    (I have Premiere Pro CS4 and I'm pretty new to it)
    All my videos are 640 by 480 AVI files and the frame rate is 30fps. What are the best settings to export these videos at?
    For some reason when I set the dimensions at the beginning to 640 to 480, and then I set the Pixel Aspect Ratio to "Square Pixels" because that is the only setting that will give me a 4:3 ratio, which is what I need since the videos are 640 by 480. But when I go to 'Export', the dimensions have been changed to 720 by 480, and I can't change the settings. What should I do? (I'm trying to save them as AVI)

    Can you give us the full details of these AVI files. If you do not have that, the great, free utility, G-SPOT will give it to you.
    You will want to set your Project/Sequence to that. If necessary, choose Desktop for the Preset and then fill in all of the attributes to match your source footage.
    What do you wish to Export to?
    What is your delivery scheme?
    That will determine your Export settings in AME. You will need to choose a Preset that matches that. You have probably chosen a DV Preset.
    Good luck,

  • AME encoding in black and white

    Currently trying out the After Effects CC trial and when trying to export a composition, AME is exporting in black and white only (H.264 -- Match Source - High bitrate preset on a Mac). I'm not seeing any obvious toggle for color changes. Is this a limitation of the trial or am I doing something wrong?

    well that's wierd.

  • Cannot export to .mov

    Hello!
    When I try to export to .mov, AME will load. When I click "Start Queue," the progress bar immediately successfully completes, and the encoding is marked complete. However, no file is generated is this split second. Does anyone have an idea on what might be wrong here? I'm not getting an error, but something is clearly not right. I'm using the default NTSC DV preset.
    I can successfully export to .wmv and .avi. I've tried opening the .avi in AME and converting to .mov, but the same issue occurs.
    Any suggestions are appreciated!
    Thanks.

  • Does MPE Affect My Exports?

    I've just made a bunch of changes to my system in an effort to speed up my slow exports.  I now have them exporting and rendering faster, but I did so many things at once that I'm not sure which thing has made a difference.
    I reinstalled Win 7, and also CS5 PP, and in the process I forgot to run "The Hack," ahem, for my GTX480 Nvidia card.  So MPE isn't on now.  And things are faster, at least exporting.
    Is it possible that the MPE can actually SLOW things down?  Especially since isn't not an officially supported card?

    > I believe all exporting goes through AME.
    That's true, but there's a difference in whether AME is acting as the master application or as the servant. When you use the Queue command, you're putting the sequence into the AME queue for processing later by AME, with AME as the master. It then calls a headless version of Premiere Pro to render frames that AME then encodes. This is different from the File > Export > Media command, which uses the main Premiere Pro application to render frames and then sends those to a servant AME instance for encoding.
    There are pros and cons to both ways. One of the cons of the queue approach is that it isn't CUDA-accelerated.
