Media Encoder 2014 - Dynamic link Premiere/AE - refresh problem

Hello,
I'm working on a edit with AE compositions into Premiere linked by the dynamic link. When i change something in AE it's updated in my Premiere timeline as expected.
Now i want to export my edit to Media Encoder. But sometimes the export doesn't show the last change in AE !
The only way i found to get this AE change in the Media Encoder is to quit Media Encoder and send again my edit.
Is there a easier solution ?

Kevin, the link work different whether you send from AE or load the comp into AME. ie you can see the full path to the original comp when you load direct to AE.
Ideally for the items loaded direct into AME there needs to be a right click "reload updates from last saved AE file". Now that would be expected behavior

Premiere crashes when trying to export with Media Encoder via Dynamic-Link

I work with clips from a networkdrive and I think the problems relates to this fact. My User-Account is an Admin-Account. I don't have any other Accounts. I also set Premiere, Adobe Media Encoder and every dynaimclinkmanager and -mediasever I could find to "run as administrator". Importing Clips in the timeline and work with them works well.
Setting Adobe Media Encoder as "run as admin" solved the issue in the past, that it sometimes didn't render clips out sent from premiere via dynmiclink saying that it couldn't find specific files (which were instances of the actual premiere-project in the tempfolder), thogh these files were actually there.
Thanks for help!

I can only recommend having all files stored locally on internal drives. Use network drives only for backup and archiving.

After Effects not dynamic linking with Media Encoder 2014

Hi
I updated from an older version of Media Encoder to Media Encoder 2014, and now it won't link with AE. I've updated AE also.. and yes, have tried turning my computer on and off again.
Am I missing something here in a preference setting or is this a known issue?

Running OSX 10.9.3 on 3.5Ghz i7 iMac
Transfer comp to AME via Composition drop-down menu , comp settings (for argument sake) are 1920x1080p 25 fps.. although this has never affected the dynamic-link until I updated AME.
I'm picking because it's a 'new app' rather than an updated one in CC that it's not being recognised/picked up by AME2014.
Seems like it'll be a preferences setting that I can't seem to find, but open to helpful suggestions.
Cheers

Recent Media Encoder 2014 and Premiere CS6 Updates Fail

Media Encoder 2014.1 Will Not Que

Since the recent update to Media Encoder 2014.1 and Yosemite media encoder will not render premiere sequences. Here's what I'm doing.
Opening Media Encoder
Add Premiere Pro Sequence
Click Render
... Nothing happens, it gives me the option to stop, but never actually starts.
I can't quit the application. I must force quit.
When I export from premiere and choose to add to media encoder que nothing happens. Media encoder starts but I have to force quit.
Exporting from premiere works fine.

Ok, I let it run for about 6 hours. This is what it looked like the whole time:
It was working though. When finished:
So that's good, but why won't it show me the progression of the task? I like to know how much time I have remaining and see the preview at the bottom like I used to. I have "Show Que Elapsed Recording Time" checked in pref.
And finally, I still have to force quit.
Further help would be greatly appreciated.

Bridge (& Prelude & Media Encoder) included in a Premiere-only account?

Hi!
I have a full CC account myself, but for a client of mine, I'm looking into different accounts. A production company I work for, is going to make the transition to Adobe CC. Because I have years of experience using it, they have asked me to oversee the operation. Now, as they don't need the full CC for all their workstations, I was thinking to install Premiere-only accounts on some of their sets. On the master workstation, there will be a full CC account so that After Effects and Photoshop and everything else are available, but on the others there only has to be Premiere Pro installed.
But are programs like Bridge, Prelude and Media Encoder available in a Premiere-only account? I can imagine it would be Premiere Pro + support programs. But there is no info on that to be found. Can anyone say something about this?
Thanks, Bart

Installing just Premiere will probably no problem. Have had setups like that on several machines, and it never was a problem. Less possibilities, that's true, but for editing it works just fine.
Before CC, Bridge was a 'free' program you could download if you had Photoshop, Premiere or something else. AME indeed came with the production bundle, but you could use it on as many machines as you liked, without a license. The same with Bridge, you didn't need a license. Since it became part of CC, I never bothered anymore on my own sets. But now, for the situation mentioned above, I'd like to know if I can still use bridge as 'complementary' feature for archiving footage...

Has CS6 fixed the PPro with AE dynamic links slow to render problems?

I've got PPro with AE dynamic links slow to render problems similar to those discussed in this thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/904652?start=0&tstart=0
As I understand it (and I could well be wrong), if I render a PPro project that has AE projects dynamically linked in (anything from simple lower thirds to color grading), during rendering the AE bits run as a service, which limits the AE bits to a single CPU and effectively stops simultaneous rendering of multiple frames. This is why I can get very high render times (essentially no parallel processing), and why messing with the number of CPUs allowed for simultaneous frame rendering, or the amount of RAM said CPUs can access, has little to no effect on total render time.
Supposedly as some point AE was going to be changed such that it used Media Encoder to do it's rendering (same as PPro does), thus speeding up rendering for any PPro project that has AE parts dynamically linked in.
Has this been done in CS6? If not, any idea when that's scheduled to happen?

(I do wish Adobe staff would keep this distinction mind when creating their videos. When I saw one about the new background rendering in PP, I was interested, only to learn that he was actually talking about background exporting, a feature PP has had since AME was introduced in CS4.)
The distinction is not so distinct, and this is an industry issue, not really Adobe. After Effects has a render queue, which is used for exporting, but you can also export. Lightwave has this, even Avid. The terms do have their own distinct meanings, but of course context is usually required. So usually "rendering previews" or "rendering final output" serve as context-sensitive uses of the term.
Terminology abuse is widespread, even people with video cameras now call themselves "filmmakers" and people who produce films never shown nor intended for a cinema call themselves "cinematographers." ENG video producers are called "photogs" and news photographers are called "photojournalists."
Transcoding, encoding, rendering, exporting....mish-mashed unfortunately, but thankfully most people can figure out what's meant.
Back to the OP - After Effects can be used with Adobe Media Encoder, it's just not the default. You can import any composition into AME from AE and render your encoded export.
As for background rendering....I remember when Pinnacle Liquid was the first to the table with that feature back in 2004 or 2005. It seemed awesome, except that you needed a ton of spare hard drive space and lots of processing to keep the background rendering going...effecitvely your processor was in use 100% of the time. When you weren't scrubbing or playing back, Liquid was rendering previews. Of course, you could use those previews during export but you rarely would have wanted to do so, since it was better quality to reference the original data when compositing the layers and effects to output to a web file, for instance. Then you had to keep cleaning up the preview cache.
I rarely render previews at all, and when I do it's just a small segment at a time, just to get a full look at the final composite. Mercury Playback is usually more than capable of playing back most of my edits the rest of the time.

Dynamic link to After Effects problem

My computer crashed a little while ago, and we had to reload the system, but no data was lost.
The project i am working on, has every single shot dynamicly linked to After Effects.
The links held up fine, but there is one problem, about 10 shots have some how recut them selves, and or have been shortend. The funny thing is, is that some how the audio still matches up. I cant seem to figure out how to solve this problem.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated,

Just an update:
With disc utilities I repaired the permissions.
I reinstalled cs5 production premium.
I updated it to the actual version (flash occured an error, but the other ones were fine)
I opend the project: no links to most of the media.
I relinkt all media - except the dynamic links to After Effects. That just doesn't work.
I saved the project on a different drive with a different name.
Opend the new project and - again - most of the files didn't link again! Missing more than 10.000 links to jpegs, psds, mxfs.
I opend the new and the old project on another mac - same results.
I think, repairing permissions with disc utility doesn't affect Adobe's software (Apple says that some 3rd Party Applicaton might not be affected.)
I found a workflow for repairing permissions in the case of updating-failure, but I didn't try that, as I don't want to make things worse.
Is there a way to repair CS5 permissions "internal"?
Thanks in advance,
Philipp

Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 + Dynamic Link = no audio!

When exporting to any file from AE via Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 (8.0.1) rendered file has no audio at all.
When importing AE comp with audio to Premiere CC 2014 imported track doesn't have audio.
Problem is somewhere in dynamic link.
How can we export, for example to H.264, from AE if Media Encoder have problems with Dynamic Link?

Hi Dmitri,
In AE project I have JPG sequence footage and sequence of ten MP3 audio tracks. I have created WAV file from those ten tracks and tried it in AE instead of MP3 files, but result was same - no audio in file, rendered from AME.

Erratic performance / missing footage with Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC 2014 dynamic links

Hi all,
I briefly touched on this amongst a host of other issues I has having while cutting my last project.
Unfortunately I never heard anything from anyone regarding my issues with the Dynamic Link system.
I had to bite the bullet and export (2-4K RAW) chunks of my last project, out of premiere using a Quicktime animation codec. This added an extra week to the post production process (which I did NOT get paid for).
I'm also a bit frustrated because it pushed the project past the deadline. Though the client was understanding, they were far from thrilled and it reflects poorly on me.
Anyhow. Project complete, on to the next-
This time, I'm using mostly footage shot from an FS700 in AVCHD. I figured maybe the RED footage was somehow too much for the program to handle with my specs, however I am having the same issue as last time.
I'll select a clip, or group of clips, go to replace with after effects composition, and sometimes they all make it, and often times they don't. The clips were shot within a couple minutes of one another and no settings were changed on the camera.
I've noticed sometime's the media will show up in the timeline, but not appear on the monitor (as pictured below). Other times the name of the clip will appear in the comp, but there will be nothing on the timeline OR in the monitor.
Never had this problem in CS6.
Adobe or anybody, please help! This is absolutely killing my workflow, and costing me time and money.
Here are my specs:
I'm running Adobe Premiere CC 2014 v8.1
Freshly installed Windows 7 Professional SP1 PC Desktop
Freshly installed Samsung 1TB SSD running my OS and Adobe CC
Intel Core i7-2600k CPU at 3.4GHz (8CPUs) - Watercooled
16GB Ram (3gb allocated for other programs)
Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 4GB GDDR5 - 3.40.62 Drivers installed
Pulling media from 2x 3TB Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM drives, striped at RAID 0
In this case pictured the second two clips in the sequence linked into AE, but the first wont show up in my monitor.

Thank You, Jim -
Unfortunately that specifically did not work.
Based on another comment sent to me, here is what did.
In PProCC
File > Adobe Dynamic Link > New After Effects Composition
In AECC
From that composition created from PPro, I imported the project (aep) initially created in AECC from another team member. Saved the file.
Back in PProCC
File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Import After Effects Composition
Magic.

Dynamic Link Premiere + After Effects - Encoder - Änderungen werden nicht übernommen.

Wenn man bereits eine Sequenz (welche eine AE-Komp. beinhaltet) mit dem Media Encoder exportiert hat und dann nachträglich nochmals Änderungen der Komp. in After Effects vornimmt und dann die Sequenz wieder per Premiere an den Media Encoder sendet, dann werden die After Effects Änderungen nicht berücksichtigt. Die After Effects Komposition innerhalb der exportierten Sequenz ist auf dem Stand des ersten Exports. In der Timeline wird sie aber richtig dargestellt. Wenn man direkt aus Premiere exportiert und nicht den Weg über den Encoder nimmt, funktioniert es auch.
Gibt es irgendwelchen temporären Dateien, die man löschen muss?

Leider kein Lösung, nur dass es hier bei mir genauso ist. Scheint leider ein Mangel am Programm zu sein, ansonsten würde ich ich auch über eine Lösung freuen. Hält schon auf, wenn ich jede Sequenz einzeln rendern muss.
Klar ich könnte das bei einzelnen Clips zur Not auch über den Media Encoder aus AE heraus machen, aber sinniger und besser wäre es schon wenn "dynamic link" auch wirklich dynamisch linken würde..

ProRes 422 MOV files offline in Adobe Media Encoder 2014 (but online in Premiere)

The question is NOT about exporting PreRes files from a Windows PC, which is what I keep finding in my searches.
My client gave me ProRes 422 MOV files. I imported them into Premiere Pro CC 2014. I could see and edit them fine. But when I export them via Adobe Media Encoder, they appear to be offline. BTW, other media sources exported fine, such as the PNGs and JPGs I cut to. (I don't think it matters, but I'm attempting to make h.462 mp4s, which I do all the time, and have done with ProRes sources before using CC 2014.)
I tried exporting a short video clip (using same ProRes 422 source) from Premiere and it worked fine. Why not Adobe Media Encoder? I need to encode batches of videos with ProRes sources overnight, so exporting from Premiere is not a good option.
I'm on a Win 7 PC and I have QT Pro and iTunes (which I think also installs codecs).

Everything seems to be working fine now, though I don’t know why. I did update my iTunes (which I’d rather not even have installed on my PC because I never use it, but removing it seems to mess things up). I’ll also make sure to keep my QT updated. I thought it was because I upgraded to the paid version a couple months ago hoping to fix a similar problem, but again, it seemed to get fixed when I updated iTunes.
Thanks for getting back to me!

After Effects CS5.5 will not open a Dynamically Linked Premiere Pro sequence in the comp. window

Hi all,
I'm trying to export a Premiere Pro sequence which is in 2K and the footage has been shot as RED 5K. Adobe Media Encoder will simply not work as I am having the quite widely discussed issue where it will just 'hang' at certain points and not complete the export.
The most popular solution to this problem is to export via the Render Queue in After Effects instead. However, therein lies the problem.
I go onto After Effects. Choose File -> Dynamic Link -> Import Premiere Pro Sequence.
The box pops up, I choose the Premiere Pro Project File then select the sequence I want to export. It then appears in the After Effects project panel window like so:
However - when I try and drag this to a new composition window, one of two things have happened. Either A) nothing happens (literally, NOTHING changes) or B) as the following example shows, it seems to add it to a new composition, but the video is entirely black. I have tried rendering it and it just produces a black video.
The other thing people seem to suggest is to just import the entire Premiere Pro sequence into After Effects. I've tried this, but any titles I have added in PP force the video to fade out then back in, in the place where the title should be?? So I can't export the video this way either.
My system is as follows:
Thanks massively in advance for any help that is provided!

This is months old but I'm now having the same problem with AE and Premiere CS6 after updating last night: Dynamic linked sequence shows up in the project window in AE and even plays video if previewed, but will not drag or alt-drag into any comps, including a new comp (makes a new comp with matching settings, but empty).
Furthermore, I do actually have an earlier version of the same sequence placed in one of my AE comps, which I think was done using the same steps just prior to updating the apps last night. Did this break?
I'm a little concerned since the biggest reason I'm trying to use premiere is to eliminate the exports when adding graphics in AE.

Adobe Media Encoder Fails Export from Premiere

AME will not start the render qeue. I have tried Clip notes and different output types. I have embedded After Effects comps in my Premiere timeline. Could that be a cause? This is my first time working with Premiere and AE together.

Hello, this is terrible problem, which i found in CS 6 softwares ...
solution i found only working, is uninstall and reinstall full package.. but it is not all,
you need to do BRAND NEW admin account in windows, and install it there.
that means, i could not export after repair from encoder in my original account never more (!!)   .. this is really terrible way how to repair this issue, because :
1.by reinstalling of software, client WASTE HIS TIME
2.by necessity to begin work in another windows profile you again WASTE YOUR TIME because of learning and migrating all other profile modifications, which i see really unaccpetable. Adobe means, this solution of repair is ok, and they did not do till today any steps of creating some "clever" solution.
I ask everybody, who will meet this issue in future, guys, please, complain about this situation, give "BUG Report" to them, and write "feature request" to them , in the way of creating some repair tool, which check actual "broken" connections between encoder and premiere, which refuses to "take material" from it and encode, and REPAIR it automatically..
   I am not IT, but ..does it seems so hard to create this ? Adobe IT developers should know their systems, and should create such utility tool really easy.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. i export anything by button "queue" from premiere to Encoder
2. Encoder will start encoding
3. Encoder does not show the window of media encoding (down left )
Results: sound of sheep occur,
in encoding error file is this reason of canceling the encoding :
01/02/2014 10:10:48 AM : Encoding Failed
Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted.
History of this problem and detailed description, HOW i did "repair" this. With wasting of app 2,5 days of my working time :
1. after repairing "error 5" problem , i solved it by reinstalling the suite from the new admin user profile (profile B) .
I continued my work on my normal working windows profile . (profile A)
Every cooperation (AE+Pr, export media via "queue" to Encoder) was working fine . . .
2. suddenly it stop working (without knowing any possible reason - i did not do installations )
and showed in error export log file :
"Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted."
3.repair via procedure(procedure "a"):
i did this procedure on the profile B (profile from last time installation of repairing problem error 5)
I did these steps :
a-uninstall master coll suite
b-i used Adobe cleaner tool (remove ALL)
c-removed raw directories in locations
•C:\Program Files\Adobe
•C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe
•C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe
•C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe
•C:\ProgramData\Adobe
d-removed these links from registry file
•HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe
•HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe
•HKEY_LOCAL_MACH INE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe
•HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Software\Wow6432Node\Adobe
e-restarted the PC
f- newly installed the Master Coll CS6
g-update the software
result of repair of "3" : problem still exists
4.Ok i find out after coordination with support, it should have been created ANOTHER NEW admin account.
4a:so i did the same procedure (uninstalling) in profile B
4b: and then i created brand new admin profile (profile C)for INSTALLATION of software
4c: restarted the pc (and did not updated it yet)
result :
==exporting of any sequence/raw/AE link video material from premiere via "queue" (Encoder) (profile C) : export WORKS
==exporting of any sequence/raw/AE link video material from premiere via "queue" (Encoder) (profile B) : export WORKS
==exporting of any sequence/raw/AE link video material from premiere via "queue" (Encoder) (profile A) : export DOES NOT WORK ! ! !
(in profile A, is possible to export some raw video material in encoder which is imported to it via "drag and drop)
problem i see:, i have my basic profile A, which i am interested to work, because of all my directory modifications are in there..
this issue should be some "broken" connections between encoder and premiere, which refuses to "take material" from it and encode.
what i expect :
to get from Adobe some repair tool, which automatically checks these connections and repair if necessary, without necessity of founding the new profile and reinstallation of whole software.. this is madness !
what i do NOT expect from Adobe:
to get from Adobe advice of kind : you have to reinstall full software in new admin profile. sorry , we do not know the solution, because we do not know, how do behave our software.
