I want to deploy Media Encoding Jobs on a server

Bottom Line: The resources of my laptop are pretty strained when encoding video. I am going to aquire a server to run these jobs (instead of my laptop) if there is a way to do this. Can someone please advise me on the "Whats"?
My "What Questions":
What licenses are required/available to setup a server for "Adobe Media Encoder"?
**Namely, is my current creative cloud license sufficent or do I need a demo license to try this out?
What the recommended hardware requirements are for a server (using the most recent 2013 server OS)?
What configuration instructions are required fo me to direct my Adobe Premeire jobs to that server?
Thanks,
rtcalice

I am on the phone with support and it appears that the answer to my questions are as follows:
1) An additional Creative Cloud License (so that Premiere Pro and Adobe Encoder can be installed on Server)
2) Did not discuss hardware requirements; however, but it was discussed that the Creative Cloud has not been test on the 2013 OS
3) Working on the details but basicaly on the Server you need to configure "Watch Folders" and on the local work station you need to do ??? to send the job to the "Watch Folder" on the Server

Adobe continually wants to reupdate Media Encoder 4.2 over and over..

Adobe Updater on my iMac running Snow Leopard, weekly (automatic check for updates to my Suite of Adobe Procucts) wants to keep re-update Media Encoder 4.2.

Captivate 8 wants to use Media Encoder CC as a default and I only have Media Encoder CS6

Hi!
Yesterday I switched from Captivate 7 to 8.
Usually I'm using FLV's which get converted to MP4 on HTML5 Export.
Captivate 8 tries to start Media Encoder CC, which I don't have and then crashes. Except for Captivate I've got the CS6 Master Collection installed.
There don't seem to be an option in the preferences to change which program should be used to convert.
Any tips?

I just tried this and updates for CS6 and CC were downloaded and installed.
Captivate still tries to start CC and failes, but now I can lock into the error report:
Dyld Error Message:
Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libcurl.4.dylib
Referenced from: /Applications/Adobe Media Encoder CC/Adobe Media Encoder CC.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/dvacaptioning.framework/Versions/A/dvacaptioning
Reason: Incompatible library version: dvacaptioning requires version 7.0.0 or later, but libcurl.4.dylib provides version 6.0.0
So if I get this right, my MacPro is finally too old, as I can't install a newer OS on this

Media Encoder Mpeg2 problem

Where can I get an update for CS6 to include an update for Media Ecoder to allow me to format in Mpeg 4.
I tried downloads to no avail. I just purchased the update last May and I want to use Media Encoder.

Hello Martin Gerritsen,
This is Arti from the PM team.
It seems to me that the brms facade has not yet started in your application server. You can check whether it has started or not by doing the following -
You need to access the JavaEE Applications running on your AS. To do this -
1. Open the nwa portal
2. Navigate to Operations Management > Systems > Start & Stop > Java EE Applications
3. Search for the brms related applications available on the server.
In case the applications have not yet been started, please try to manually start them. If you still have problem in starting the BRMS facade please contact me.
I will send across to you a fresh set of SCAs which you can deploy into your server to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Arti

Send a render job to Media Encoder on another system?

I am a recovering Final Cut Pro user. Switched over about version FCP X 10.3. The railroad tie that broke the camel's back for me was a removed feature I am hoping I can do with Premiere in some way.
In FCP 7 and even FCP X up to 10.3, you had the option of sending a render job to their version of Media Encoder (Called "compressor") just like Premiere Pro can do now. However, you had the option of being able to use a "render cluster" by where if compressor was loaded onto other macs on your network, it would send the job out to one of those nodes or even split it up and send parts of it to several computers to parallel encode the job. Made large jobs faster and allowed you to not have to bog down your processors on you main computer with a render job. Apple just took it out with 10.4, which was a deal breaker for me.
I know Premiere/Media Encoder does not have the ability to split the job up, but was wondering if there as a way I could send a render job to Queue up on the Media Encoder of another system...say my Mac mini server which also has Media Encoder on it. Is there any way to select the path to the Media Encoder and thus have it deploy the render job to the other machine?
Thanks.

You can export a Sequence on another machine on your network, if that's what you want to do.
You can save your Sequence on your A machine, then import the sequence to AME on your B machine, and export away.
I do this myself. I allows me to keep working on my A machine at more or less full speed while my B machine is cranking out review movies or whatever. There's a little network overhead, but not enough that I notice.
Just click the + icon in AME on your B machine, and navigate to your project and sequence on your network.

Media encoder hates me...Anybody want to help? I need this file exported within 5 hours.

So about a month ago I reinstalled media encoder because it decided that it doesn't want to work anymore and would simply give me an error telling me it couldn't open everytime I'd try to use it.
Now I'm trying to export a premiere file and when I click start que it gives me a warning sign that says "Could not read from source, please check if it has been moved or deleted"
The only time I moved a I was working with was moving the raw footage from my desktop to a folder on my desktop with the rest of the files I'm using in it.
When I check the error log file everything appears to be correctly located, I also made sure that the temporary file it creates to export is where it says it is...so I don't know why it's giving me this message.
I really don't know what to do, I"m about to just delete premiere and media encoder and reinstall both of them soon, in hopes that magically they will work...
I'm using the mac version too if that makes a difference.

"Could not read from source, please check if it has been moved or deleted"
You admitted to having moved your files from the desktop to a folder on the desktop. That could well be your problem.
You need to get PR to recognize the new location of your files. When you start your project, PR asks for the new location. You answer that question, the rest of your files will automatically be located. Then save your project, exit and restart PR. It should now automatically find all your files. If you have done this, is your problem solved? If not, answer the 16 questions Eddie pointed you to.

Wanted Muse but got Media Encoder

Wanted to download Muse but got Media Encoder instead. App. manager says Muse is " installed" but can't find it in Finder or Launchpad. What am I doing wrong

Hey Tinhelp,
If installed, it should be in the Applications folder. If its not there I'd try running the uninstaller from
Mac HD > Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers (Mac OS X)
and then reinstalling

Want to output to MP4 but Media encoder comes up with strange into

Hi
I need to send out, via the web, a HDV 18 minute video. it's supposed to remain HDV - they want a
mp4, yet when i use media encoder and selection export settings, FORMAT : mpeg4, the preset
'3gpp 352 x 288 H.263' appears also i set the audio at 48000 hz, why is it outputing it at 32 kHz stereo
this doesn't sound right?
the frame width 352 pixels by 288 pixels - is that standard for putting an HDVideo on the web
why is the frame rate only 15 fps ???
what is multiplexing: 3gpp

Look under H.264.

FLV file not opening up in media encoder

I am on a unique job where we are trying to figure out our workflow for video live and on-demand production. Basically, we will be streaming live video during the day and then we would then like to post the video that just went live and have it available in our on-demand archives. For our on-demand, we have to have 3 different flv files at 3 different bitrates since we have no idea what our audience's individual computer/internet can handle.
Because we are doing a high volume of video for this job over the course of two weeks, I am trying to streamline our workflow so that my editors don't have to deal with long hours of babysitting a computer while it is encoding. Because we have to go from injesting DV footage, then exporting QT, and compressor to make it a H.264 file since Media Encoder cannot read FCP QT files, and then into media encoder to make it to flv. That is a lot of steps to be taking. We also have lots of other things to edit aside from the live material.
We ourselves are sending out the video live on line, so permission is not an issue and we are not ripping off things off of big network websites at all. You see, the video is encoding as it is going out and I found a way to record the flv video and maintain it in flv format. However, we would just like to trim the heads and tails for the on-demand version as well create two other flv versions with a different bit rate.
For some reason, when I open the flv file that we recorded, media encoder does not see anything. I took that same test flv file and put it in three different media players/compression software. The flv opens in media streamclip, Adobe Media Player, and Sorensen Squeeze, so I don't understand why you don't see anything when it is in Media Encoder.
I was even able to trim and re-compress the recorded flv to a lower bitrate flv file. I don't really want to use Sorensen because I tested versus Media Encoder and it is really slow compared to Media Encoder. Can someone help me?
Thanks in advanced.
Michelle

I don't think that Adobe's Media Encoder can open FLV files at all, it only creates them.
Alternatively you can use some of the tools below to top & tail your videofiles:
- After Effects CS4
- Premiere CS4
- RichFLV (www.richapps.de)
Regarding workflow, have you looked into Adobe's Flash Media Encoding Server?

Adobe Media Encoder CS5 hangs when adding files of varying HD resolutions.

I've seen questions similar to this related to CS4 but never explained very well, and my CS4 for mac worked fine. I am unsure if this is a new problem or a windows specific problem but here is the situation, if you need more information I will gladly provide it.
For the past week or so I have been encoding 1920x1080i mov files (h.264/aac) to 1280x720p (vp6/mp3) flvs. When I stick to that single HD format in the AMC processing que everything works great. However, when I add older HD content into the AMC que, content with non-standard presets, the program hangs. I tried to import about 15 files last night and the program just sat there all night in a '...NOT RESPONDING' state. The video's have different audio and video settings and it's little difficult to pinpoint exactly what they were. Some are 1440x1080, some are 1280x900, some have PCM audio some of mp3.
Now I temporarily resolved this issue by simply using cs4 master on my mac pro which worked great. However I have noticed a huge speed increase in CS5 64bit AMC. It takes 2-3 hours to encode 1 flash video on my mac pro (dual quad core xeon 2.9Ghz/32GB ram) with CS4. It takes ~20 minutes on my windows 7 station (single core 2 quad 3Ghz/8GB ram) with CS5.
How to replicate:
If I drop a single file into the AMC CS5 que, regardless of the resolution, frame rate, or sound codec; it will import. If I then add another file with a different resolution AMC will hang and become non-responsive. It never crashed but I can't wait 12+ hours to see if it accepted a job or not. As I said before this problem was not observed on CS4 for mac - it worked flawlessly, albeit a little slow.
Software used:
Adobe Media Encoder CS5 windows 64bit
Adobe Media Encoder CS4 mac 32bit
System specs:
Windows 7 home:
Core 2 quad 3Ghz
8GB ram
80GB SSD x25-m
nVidia Quadro 580
OSX 10.6.3:
Dual Xeon 2.99Ghz
32GB ram
4 7200 disks in 4TB raid 0
Radeon HD 2600
Matrox MAX h.264 compressor card
Any advice on this situation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time

Hi Michael,
Sorry to hear you're having problems with Adobe Media Encoder. I'd like to get some more information about the problem so I can better understand your workflow, and potentially try to recreate the problem. For what it's worth, I often import files of different resolutions without any problem, so I want to find out what's different about how you're using AME.
Apologies for the long list of questions; the small details can be important.
-- After you import the first file, what else do you do in AME? Change the preset? Change the settings? Change the output destination?
-- What are the properties of the files that are causing the problem? You said it happens on "non-standard" files, but can you describe the specifications for one or more files that cause the problem? Please include file type, length, frame rate, frame dimensions, field order (if applicable), alpha mode (if applicable), and audio type and rate. If you know more the bitrate, both video and audio, that would be nice, too.
-- If any of the files are small enough, could you post a couple online that I could try on my machine?
-- How were these files generated? What application created them?
-- Where are the files stored? A local drive, a network drive, a removeable drive (USB or Firewire), etc.?
-- Which Adobe application or suite do you have installed? AME a limited set of options if you're using Flash or Web Premium compared to Master Collection, Production Premium, Premiere Pro, or After Effects.

Is the Random Media Encoder CC Mute Problems Fixed?

There is a thread about Mute/Solo but here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5592142#5592142
However it has been quite some time since Adobe staff has responded to that thread, so I thought I'd create a new thread to see if it is fixed. Right now I'm wasting alot of time with Premiere Pro CC / Adobe Media Encoder CC as this combination will produce encodes with randomly muted audio tracks, effectively making Adobe Media Encoder unusable. Because I and other CC users rely on Media encoder for their batch export workflow, I'm wondering if Adobe has addressed the problem in the newest release Premiere Pro CS 7.0.1 (105) or not. Please respond so I can use Adobe Media encoder again!
Thank you.

This is causing massive headaches for me, and has wasted me days of work. I have a 12 language, 21 sequence DVD project, with all the languages on one timeline. Initially I used mute and solo to export the various language versions. But, due to whatever bug is going on, only around a third of the audio clips exported properly. Many muted or kept the wrong audio tracks, others muted them all.
So then I had to create 152 sequences from my original sequences, one for each language for the 21 different clips, then going through and deleting all but one lanuage for each (not ideal if there are any changes in timings to the original sequences). I then exported these as dolby digital audio for DVD. No success - only one of the languages exported. The rest just had the music track. So then, I tried exporting AAC audio. Two of them worked, the rest didn't. It seems totally random when exporting from media encoder which tracks actually appear in the final file. Some are muted, some aren't. And it is even different depending on what file format is being exported.
It seems I'm going to have to export, one-by-one, the audio clips from Premiere. 152 times. I don't want to have to, but if Media Encoder can't do the job it's suppoed to do, then as far as I can tell, that's the only alternative. Not happy at all. My CTRL-E fingers are going to get tired.
Can any Adobe staff tell us whether these bugs are going to be fixed at any point?

Both After Effects & Adobe Media Encode CC giving are not letting me export.

Dear All,
Both After Effects & Adobe Media Encode CC giving are not letting me export movies.
Some times they will, but after one file both programs give me the following error messages.
After effects:
“[file path and name].mov. An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1610153464)"
AME:
"Can't read from source."
I've went through the forum and found threads & pages discussing the problem.
E.g.
http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2013/08/solutions-for-problems-with-quicktime-files-in -after-effects-cc-12-0-because-of-conflict-with-dvcprohdvideoout-quicktime-component.html
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1252092
After following all the tips and suggestions (from deinstalling quicktime components & audio components to completely reinstalling CC) I'm still experiencing the problems.
Which leaves me in a bit of a squeeze. I need to export over 144 movies in the coming 2 days and the only way to do this is to quit and open media encoder (or AE) after each single export.
Not really an option.
Both problems have the process Adobe QT sever in common, I took this from the console:
9/26/13 1:02:44.517 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[171]: ([0x0-0x42042].com.adobe.Adobe QT32 Server.application[331]) Job appears to have crashed: Segmentation fault: 11
9/26/13 1:02:44.672 PM ReportCrash[354]: Saved crash report for Adobe QT32 Server[331] version 7.0.1 (7.0.1.0) to /Users/martijn/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/Adobe QT32 Server_2013-09-26-130244_martijns-MacBook-Pro-2.crash
System information:
Retina MacBook Pro (Mid 2012) (16gb ram)
Mac OS X 10.8.5 (12F37)
Running Adobe CC (for teams), all apps are up-to-date.
I don't no why Adobe puts out such a buggy piece of software (I know it has to with Apple's poor 32bit quicktime implimentation, but hey, this was known information no?).
Upgrading to CC has given our office nothing but problems.
Hope someone can help to find a work around until Adobe realeases a proper update and solves this problem once and for all.
All help is much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Martijn

Hello Tim,
Thanks for the really quick response!
Regarding the crash log: it doesn't reference com.apple.audio.CoreAudio (though it did before, so I followed all the steps in your blog post before I posted to this forum).
I've uploaded the crashlog to:
http://martijnlambada.com/TMP/AdobeQT32servercrash.zip
If you want to inspect it. It mentions the DXV codec (which I also uninstalled), but the crash keeps occuring. Also I need to export to DXV since it's the only codec the d3 media
server accepts (http://d3technologies.com).
I followed all the steps in the troubleshooting steps.
Codecs used: I've tried everything from animation to Apple ProRes (including: h264/motion jpeg/uncompressed). With all codecs the Adobe QT32 server keeps crashing (though I can't always reproduce).
Export destination: Internal SSD (same as where the OS is installed on) + External raid (via firewire & thunderbolt) + external HD via usb 3.0 (tried everything).
When does the problem start: Really hard to specify, sometimes a day without crashes, sometimes every export for days on end. Sometime after restarting (tried logging out, restarting, switching off and on the computer). With other programs running and with out. Now checking every process active when exporting, and comparing log files.
Can you export to other formats: See question 1, sometimes I can, sometimes not.
When you launch AE and/or AME, is QT32 Server running? At what point does it stop running? Still runing when I open the program. It crashes when exporting (ofter after finishing the first export).
What component files are in your Library/QuickTime folder?: Currently the folowing:
AppleAVCIntraCodec
AppleHDVCodec.component
AppleIntermediateCodec.component
AppleMPEG2Codec.component
AppleProResCodec.component
DesktopVideoOut.component
DVCPROHDCodec.component
DVCPROHDMuxer.component
DVCPROHDVideoDigitizer.component
DVCPROHDVideoOutput.component
DVCPROHDVideoOutputClock.component
FCP Uncompressed 422.component
iChatTheaterPreview.component
IMXCodec.component
LiveType.component
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Martijn
