File handling-Converting premiere pro 5.0 project to a high end flash movie without waiting 5 hrs.

Question

So I was waiting like a week to process( render) a file to a decent 1080hd flash vid. With all the new codecs in media encoder I found a work around to get the job done before I retire.
Open a new comp in after effects 5.0. import the PPR file directly into AE, as a SEQUENCE only with audio, drag and drop the ppr comp onto the stage. Go to make a movie. Set-up the render engine to render in what ever you want this case it's a flv file. set the output size,  to where you want the flash file to go to. and sonnaofagunn...it'll take a file and toss it out in like 2--30min.NOT DAYS!!!!  This was for a file I was having to do like 1,000 times in media encoder, and it would never match the size of the original file...I aint mr. wizard.
but this made me feel like him!!!!!!

Welcome to the forum.
First, a few questions:
1.) What is the source footage's format/CODEC (both your Video and your Audio)?
2.) Can you tell us about the I/O sub-system on your MB, i.e. your HDD's, their size, speed, free space (very important) and how you have them allocated?
3.) Can you Export to another muxed format, as a test?
4.) Can you Export as non-muxed (Multiplexing set to None) and get two usable elemental/elementary streams? Do each play fine? Again, this is just a test.
As you observe, the two streams are first created, and then when complete, they are muxed into one file with both the Audio and Video stream. Something is causing the muxing to not complete. This could be an issue directly with AME, or perhaps with your H.264 CODEC, or something like free space on your target HDD.
Good luck,
