Media Encoder issue

I've edited an 8 minute video in very high quality 1920x1080i, originally shot in XDCAM HD MP4 ... with some standard DV .AVI shots included in the video.
I'm trying to export this timeline to a high quality blu-ray MPEG 2 file - 2-pass VBR, 25 min, 30 target, 35 maximum. Using the MPEG2 Blu-ray preset on Adobe Media Encoder for 1080i 29.97 high quality, but changing 1-pass VBR to 2-pass VBR.
It starts okay but always stops completely after about 50 minutes or so ... maybe halfway through the first pass. Has anyone run into this problem, or are there any suggestions?
Thanks very much.
PS Since writing the original note, various attempts at CBR have also failed. At times the infamous PProHeadless.exe error comes up, at other times everything merely stops.

Please provide
these details to help us help you.
Cheers
Eddie

  • Media Encoder issue or bug? 720p50 to 720i50

    Can anyone confirm a Media Encoder issue, happening when converting progressive 50-fullframe (or 60 for ntsc) to 50-interlaced frames?
    I tried to convert DVCProHD 720p50 clips to PAL DVD wich uses 576i50 (25 frames devided to 50 interlaced frames). The result was, that every second frame of the source clip was skiped, so I received a PAL clip in 25 full-frames (25p). And it didn't matter which field-order I choosed (upper/lower/progressive) - the result was always the same.
    when converting p50 to i50 I would expect, that AME would convert these 50 full-frames to 50 interlaced-frames with the field order I choosed. For example Canopus Procoder is working this way.
    Btw, I lost the link, where to report Premiere bugs to adobe. Can anyone post it, please?

    See:
    FAQ:How/Where do I report a bug?

  • Media Encoder issue - The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022)

    I've just installed Adobe Media Encoder CC and upon opening the application I receive this error:
    How should I fix this?

    This is a Dynamic Link error.
    DL is technology linking DVA applications together.
    Do you by any chance have mixed versions of DVA application?  Like Premiere Pro CC 2014 and AME CC (2013)?
    That could possibly cause such issue.  You should use matching releases as much as possible. 
    So if you update one video product (Premiere Pro, AE, Prelude, AME, Audition) you should update all the other ones.
    If that's not the case, open up task manager, Force End Dynamic Link task.  Then try to launch AME.
    If still no help, reboot the system and then try to launch AME.
    If still have this issue, hold the shift key then launch AME (This will reset AME preferences).

  • Adobe Media Encoder Issue Help

    Hello all,
    I am having an issue with Adobe Media Encoder that I am hoping to receive some help with.  I am rendering out some videos from Premiere and every time I render something larger than 1 GB, I receive this error message:
    "Adobe Media Encoder
    Could not write XMP data in output file."
    It has only started since the last update about a month ago, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks again!

    Any help please?! Thank you!

  • MEDIA ENCODER ISSUES...PLEASE HELP!

    IVE BEEN USING ADOBE CS4 MASTER COLLECTION FOR 2 YEARS AND AM NOW HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MEDIA ENCODER! I CAN OPEN NO PROBLEM...BUT WHEN I TRY ADDING A SUPPORTED FILE TO ENCODE IT FREEZES?....IF IT DOES MAKE IT PAST THAT POINT WHICH SELDOM IT DOES WHEN I HIT TH EQUE BUTTON IT WILL SAY CONFORMING AND AFTER 30 SECONDS OR SO IT BECOMES UN REPSONSIVE! ANY HELP WITH THIS ISSUE WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!

    Please try downloading the trial version of Premiere Pro CS5.5 and see if you still encounter this hang. You can get it here: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=premiere_pro&promoid=DJDVF
    As for diagnosing why AME suddenly started having this problem, here are a few things to think about/try:
    You say that you've successfully transcoded mpg files to avi, but I presume you weren't always transcoding the exact same clip to the exact same avi settings. So....
    maybe there's something different about the current source clip (a different codec used to create it, some glitch in the data stream, greater length). Please try encoding an mpg clip that succeeded previously.
    if you're using a different AVI preset or custom settings this time than you've used in the past, then please try encoding to a preset that has worked before.
    Has anything changed on the system that could explain this new behavior:
    update to the OS, Adobe software, or graphics driver
    change of hardware such as a new graphics card.
    installation of a new codec pack
    If none of the above helps, then I suggest deleting AppPrefs file for AME and, if that doesn't work, then the media cache files. If you don't know where to find those, then please indicate which OS you're on so we can give you the exact paths.

  • 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.

  • Latest Update of Adobe Media Encoder Issue with C4D Source

    Updated Media Encoder to Build 8.0.0.173 this AM when the Adobe notification came through and it now refuses to encode any project with C4D source.   The issue is codec agnostic.   Tried with both C4D R15 and R16.  No joy.  Any clue?  Would like to roll back to the previous version but not sure that option is available within the uber-slick CC Adobe world.

    I'm confused. You say that you updated ths morning, but then you give the version number for the previous version (8.0), rather than the current version for AME (8.1).
    I just tried rendering and exporting an After Effects composition containing a .c4d scene file through AME 8.1, and it works fine for me on Windows and Mac OS.

  • Adobe Media Encoder - Issue with exporting file

    When I send a file to Adobe Media Encoder and I hit queue I get an error, "could not read from source file, please check if it has been moved or deleted".
    The source file location that the AME is trying to use is C:\Users\User Name\AppData\local\temp\file name.prproj
    Is this file location correct?
    Why is not using my scratch disk file?
    How do I change the file that AME is trying to use?
    I have not been able to export a video since I have purchased Premiere CS4.
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    If you want a quick work-around do not try exporting from Premiere, just save and exit the project after you are through editing.  Open AME and under File, select Add Premiere Pro Sequence, browse for your project file and click on it once--have patience Adobe's feedback here is lousy--your sequence will finally appear in the Sequence window, click on it and then click on OK.  Select your Format,.Preset and Output location.  If you want to tweak your settings just click on the Settings button.  Then hit Start Queue.
    Do you have the project on an external removable drive?

  • Adobe Media Encoder Issue

    Hello,
    I am using Adobe Media encoder CC and I do not see an option to export as FLV.  Is it not supported in 2014 CC? please let me know.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    The FLV export option was removed from the 2014 release of AME CC. Please see this blog post for more information:

    HI-
    I'm running Windows 7.  Details from Photoshop.  I've restored my computer to an earlier date to see if something accidentally crushed the codecs.  It's odd because i havent' used my computer hardly at all since i made the great videos two weeks ago.

  • 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...

  • Media Encoder adding RBG color casts on BW 16mm Footage

    Hey Everyone,
    I am really stumped by this one. I am working with FCP6 and Apple Pro Res HQ scans of 16mm B&W footage. I am trying to encode a self-contained .mov file (direct from FCP) in Adobe Media Encoder CC (for Blu-ray) and then burn to Blu-ray with Encore CS6.
    I burned the first test Blu-ray last night and when I played it back on my Blu-ray player/TV, I was stunned by the fidelity and definition of the otherwise thick/complicated 16mm grain structure, even via what was only a 6GB .m4v render (compressed from 33.5GB .mov). Everything was perfect...EXCEPT...I got these horrible "color casts" of red, blue, green, magenta, across practically every shot in the footage. Particularly in the last shot of the drain pipe (see example clips 14 seconds long):
    Original: https://vimeo.com/97456916 (pass: "original")
    Blu-ray: https://vimeo.com/97453674 (pass: "colorcast")
    Obviously the footage does not look this in either FCP6 or .mov in QT7. I just double checked and the color casts ARE visible when playing back the ME converted .m4v in Encore. I have also taken the .mov from FCP and brought that into Encore and NO COLORCASTS. I have also taken the .mov, reimported it to FCP and but a 3-Way Color Corrector on it and put the saturation at zero, exported that, and then ME>Encore and it still adds the color....So I am 99% positive this is a Media Encoder issue. Here are the settings I used:
    Considering how long is has taken me to get satisfactory web compression results from 16mm footage in the past, I feel like I just hit a grand slam in the bottom of the 9th with the playback fidelity of the first test Blu-ray. The motion and definition are phenomenal, I mean we are talking Criterion quality--without X.264 or Blu Code--(even with all the modern "overcompensation" crap turned off on my TV). I AM SO SO CLOSE TO RENDERING/BURNING A PERFECT BLU-RAY IF I CAN JUST FIGURE THIS COLOR THING OUT!
    Got a deadline to get this into the hands of a couple of prominent filmmakers.
    Any help or ideas that anyone can provide will be most appreciated.
    Thank so much!

    ***SOLUTION***
    Well it seems silly that I had to do this at all, but here is the workflow that finally seemed to solve the issue without adding an extra level of encoding...
    Save self-contained .mov of my timeline in FCP6 > bring that back in FCP as a separate sequence and apply the "Desaturate" filter (Image Control > Desaturate) to the entire film > save as self-contained .mov again > convert in AME > master and burn to Blu-ray with Encore > Presto!!! NO COLORCASTS on B&W 16mm footage in Encore and no colorcasts from the file on the burned Blu-ray disc.
    I believe I stated it above, but in case I didn't, adjusting the chroma and/or "desaturating" via FCP's color corrector plugins did not work...even with the exact same workflow otherwise. I have no idea why, but if anyone ever runs into the same problem, this worked for me. Only took two weeks to do something that I guessed would take a day, maybe two. Geesh.
    Thanks again guys for all the suggestions. Really really appreciate it.

  • Latest Media Encoder CC 7.2 fixes the transcode issue in Encore CS6

    The latest version of Adobe Media Encoder prevents the issue of transcoding Blue-Ray files when importing them in Encore CS6 http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2013/12/adobe-media-encoder-cc-7-2-december-2013-updat e.html

    This is very good news for CC users.
    The PR update is also now announced:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/5925060#5925060
    The list of bug fixes does not mention this issue.
    There have been some differences in how processing occurs between exporting from PR vs queuing to AME. Do we know that the export is fixed for either type of export?

  • Live text template render issue when using Media Encoder?

    I'm running into flash frames with Media Encoder exports of Premiere sequences using the live text templates.
    Unfortunately, AME doesn't flag it as an error, so the render completes without any issues in the render log and the only way to find it is to watch the rendered file.
    I have tried different combinations of having After Effects open or closed, with the live text template comp open or closed; I can't consistently reproduce the problem with any certainty and so am having trouble pinpointing the source.
    My only hypotheses so far are that:
    The glitches seem to be happening in the dynamic link between AME and PP, not AE and PP. The live text will pop back to the duplicated comp's text for one frame. Video playing simultaneously doesn't pop.
    In other words, the AE text template said: "name here". In PP it was edited to say "John Doe", then that comp was duplicated and edited to say "Bob Smith". Everything looks fine in PP. There are no keys on the source text in AE (I have noticed that if there are keys on the source text in AE, the text will pop back to the original AE text at that key in PP).
    When rendered out of AME, halfway through Bob Smith's title, it will read "John Doe" for a single frame, then pop back to being Bob.
    I've only had this happen so far with AME renders. The renders out of PP haven't given me any issues so far.
    It might happen more frequently on longer segments? If a title is up for 45 sec instead of 10 sec, it may be more likely to pop.
    The issue seems to occur more often in batch renders out of AME (happened to 3 of 5 files rendered in a batch, AME 2014.1) and/or with unrelated AE comps open (on a single render from AME 2014.2)
    Again, it doesn't happen every time or to the same title, or in the same spot. Files are being rendered to ProRes 422 HQ. Unchecked "Use Previews" in AME.
    Would be nice to get to the bottom of what's happening so I can recommend something to the editors when I hand off these live text templates to them.
    I realize that the live text is a new feature as of 2014.1, but haven't found anyone else talking about this. Would love if this was a very simple fix that I'm missing.
    I was able to reproduce the error on 2 different machines, with similar specs:
    Premiere CC 2014.1 and 2014.2
    Media Encoder CC 2014.1 and 2014.2
