Media encoder keeps quitting during encode

i've tried several different variables on my mac, but i can't seem to output a file on the same H264 settings that i use all the time. For some reason, encoder and premiere keep quitting mid-encode.

Same here since update.... been building for so long now and went to compile.... it wont even export a png image sequence, which is what the source is, from after effects. Its like in the last few days it just got to where it quit in AE, but not untill it quit in Premere, and media encoder.

Vista with Creative Media Player keeps stoping during transfers to my Zen To

After my old computer crashed I purchased a new computer with Vista and like many others I went through the process of updating the firmware on my Zen Touch on another computer with XP and Windows MediaPlayer 0. I followed all the steps, including updating to the latest Creative Media OrginazerPlayer(5) and Play for Sure updates. Of course I lost all my music on the ZenTouch but I had my music saved on a external hard dri've. I loaded all the songs to my new computer and added them to the library for the Creative Media Player. Next step was to add them back to my Zen Touch. Becasue I had so many specialized playlists this process was going to take forever and would have to add songs one at a time. Everything was working great at first. I had no problems with Vista recoginizing everything and it all seem to function well. As I started to transfer songs to Zen Touch everything also went fine at first. Once I got through a few hundred songs the Media Player keeps stoping (atleast that's what the window that pops up says). I can sometimes go on later and transfer a few more songs but only a few and then it stops again and again and again. The ZenTouch is fully charged and being detected so the answers I've seen posted don't help. I've done so much to get everything to work and now this.... I running out of patience. I really don't want to start over or use the Windows Media Player if I don't have to since I've created so many playlists on the Creative Media program.Any suggestions out there on how to solve the problem of the constant stopage of the Creative Media Organizer when transfering songs to my Zen Touch Sorry for the long post- just wanted to cover the fact of what I've done already so there won't be any reiteration of suggestions.Message Edited by mattkaetzel on 0-03-20082: AM

Older Creative HDD-based players with special drivers (PDE), such as the Jukebox Zen,?were not supported past Windows XP. [url="http://mrinternet.wordpress.com/2007/03/0/creative-zen-nx-and-vista-working-together-finally/" rel="nofollow">This site[/url]?(thanks coachop94) describes someone's effort to get PDE drivers to work in Vista; try at your own risk. If that doesn't work, you'll have to transfer your files off the Jukebox Zen using an older computer (XP or earlier).
Also, if you have MediaSource 5 you should also have installed the appropriate plug-in from the Jukebox Zen support page.

IPhoto 09 (8.1.2) keeps quitting during large import

Hi.
Have always disliked iPhoto but use it anyway. Now I am disliking it even more.
Is there a maximum number of images iPhoto can add to a library at one time? Is there a maximum number of photos you can have in your iPhoto Library? Currently there are 5427 photos in my Library. I have a folder on my desktop of 1100 RAW (.nef) images and every time I try to import them, it gets part way through and then just up and quits, no error #, just "There was an error blah blah blah....". If I copy the 1100 images to an external drive and try to import from that, it quits part way through. In Preferences/Advanced it doesn't matter if "Copy Items to the iPhoto Library" is checked or not, iPhoto quits either way. Last time it imported 500 or so, then quit; when I reopened iPhoto, those 500 showed up as Last Import, but when I navigated back to the folder to try and import the remainder, the usual "Hide images already imported" was not there, and it began to import them all over again......any ideas? Also, iPhoto is the only application open during any of this.
Running a MacBook Pro, 2.53 Ghz Intel Core Duo, 4 gigs of RAM, OS X 10.7.5.
Thanks in advance!

Honesty is a good policy
Currently there are 5427 photos in my Library.
don't have the time to port a few hundred gigs over to Bridge
simply does not compute
We can help but only if you provide accurate and honest information
For exaple I have over 55,000 potos and my iPhoto library is only 317 GB total including versions and supprot files - even for me my photos only use 241 GB - so youo clearly do not have "a few hundred gigs" in 5427 photos
You stated that you dislike iPhoto - the only possible answer to that is to change programs since no one here can change iPhoto (and even if we could it is very unlikely that anyone would change it to make you happy) - so you have the answer to your "dislike" of iPhoto
and you have the answer to import crashes -
second since you think it is due to too large an import - there is no limit but issues such as image size, memory size, available disk, etc, etc, etc may make large import fail - so very simply do 4 imports of 300 or so photos rather than one of 1100
Time to quit complaining and take action
You have a nice day now!

Imovie keeps quitting during import of movies from Sony DVD Handycam

While importing movies with my sony dvd handycam, imovie imports 7 clips and stops...I have successfully imported many movies before and can't figure out why it continues to quit? PLEASE HELP

I am having the same problem with imports from my Canon vixia. I've imported many movies and clips successfully before this, but now, all of a sudden it won't import squat and I haven't changed any settings.....HELP!!!!!!

IWeb keeps quitting during publishing process

I've been using iWeb with my MobileMe account for over 6 months now, there are always some occasional publishing problems, especially since I travelled to Australia where the internet connection doesn't seem to be too fast. But now I've hit a dead end and nothing seems to help any more.
Every time I try to publish my blog it gets stuck on the creating page: "Archive" bar and then quits. This has been going on for days and I have no idea where to even start looking for possible problems with my Archive page... Publishing to a local folder doesn't seem to give any better results either. At first I thought it had something to do with enabling comments, but I've tried either way and the result is still the aggravating "iWeb quit unexpectedly" message.
I have another website built in iWeb that I've only recently started publishing through MobileMe. This one goes through all the 'creating page' process without problems, but it always seems to get stuck on the last 1-5% of publication process, no matter how long i leave the program running. The end result is a "publish error" message, but at least the updates are online...
I've updated iWeb and tried several other things. I really need to publish my blog updates! Please help!

thanks Roddy & Madison
I have tried several different things such as emptying the cache and deleting the iWeb preferences. I also created a new page and published it to a local folder, it worked perfectly well. Finally I tried publishing my blog to a different folder than I usually do. Same problem persisted: the application froze and quit while the process bar was on 'creating Archive page' (no error message displayed). When I opened the folder that had been created I discovered that Archive files had in fact been created and functioned properly. This means that the files that come next in the publishing process are the ones causing problems: Photos. In fact, I've tried to open the photo album page and every time I click on it the application just quits. Can't even delete the page to get rid of the problematic files...

Imovie 08 keeps quitting during editing

While editing imovie, the program occasionally freezes and then quits with message stating that imovie has quitted unexpectedly. I have to relaunch the program to continue working. Any ideas as to the cause and any solutions are appreciated.

Hi
May be my old list can be of help.
*Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.*
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
• Delete iMovie pref file - or rather start a new user/account - log into this and re-try
iMovie pref file resides.
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
and is named. *com.apple.iMovie.plist *
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.
• Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
• Garageband-fix. Start it, Play a note and Close it. Re-try (Corrects an audio problem that hinders iMovie)
• Screen must be set to Million-colors
• Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK (not relevant for iMovie’08 or 09)
iMovie updated ?
QuickTime updated ?
Mac OS version ?
• Program miss-match. iMovie 5.0.2, up to Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK
• Program miss-match. iMovie 6.0.3 or 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iMovie’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
From LKN 1935. (in this case = iMovie HD (5), I tried it all, but nothing worked.
Your answer (above) has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that
there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled
iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos)
to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before.

I run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac.

IPhone APPs keep quitting during startup

I have several Apps on my iPhone which, after using once, will quit and return to the home screen upon startup. Has anyone else had this problem?
I have already tried removing and reinstalling the App, which will work once and then quit every time after that until I reinstall it.
Any Suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Idvd quitting during encoding

I recently upgraded to Leopard and have had problems burning through idvd ever since. Idvd keeps quitting during the processing movie stage. I have tried repairing permissions and deleting the preference file with no success and have ensured I have 25 gb of free space. Any further suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated as I have run out of ideas now and getting very frustrated.

Questions:
Did you repair permissions yet?
are all assets for iDvd located on the startup volume (as opposed to an ext HD)?
Are you using an ext. FW / USB Hard Drive on your mac by any chance? If so eject and disconnect it and try again.

IDVD Quitting During/After Initial Burning

I'm am having random problems burning projects. I just successfully burned a project that had only 1 menu and 1 QT movie w/o chapters (20 minutes long) but iDVD quit immediately after. A real pain as i need to make multiple copies and now have to wait for asset encoding again.
I also have been having trouble burning other projects that have 2-3 menus, a short QT movie in the menu and a 40 minute QT movie with chapters as the main movie. These projects keep quitting during the burn and nothing is getting on the dvd.
Any ideas? Thanks.
10.4.3
iDVD 4.0.1
50 GB free space
iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Ok, so now i've tried quitting all other programs and rebooting before burning a dvd. iDVD is still quitting after successfully burning a project. I need to burn more than one disk though and don't want to wait for the encoding again.
Can anyone offer any advice as to how to fix this or any other options? Thanks.

Since I don't know what a lot of these crash reports really mean I can only guess. However I see it reporting MyBook on a USB port. FCP wants firewire for external drives.
Try that, repairing permissions and resetting FCP prefs tho I suspect it's the drives on USB. try that first

PPro, Encore & Media Encoder keep running after quit

We recently upgraded to PPro CS5 and everything seem to be working well, except that when I close Premiere, Encore or Media Encoder and then go to open them again a while later, the don't want to launch. When I hit ctrl+alt+del, I see the problem. Under the "Processes" tab the program is always still running. Once I force it to quit, it will start up without a problem.
This happens every time I close these three programs and a restart doesn't fix the problem.
Computer specs:
Win7 64-bit
Core i7 920
ASRock X58 motherboard
Radeon 4870
500GB 7200 OS Drive
1.5 TB Raid 3 array for storage
PPro 5.0.2
I have downloaded and installed all of the updates.

How long a while?
-Jeff
It varies. Maybe a couple of minutes, maybe an hour or more. I shut down PPro about five minutes ago and it's still listed in Processes.
Update:
It's been about an hour now and it still hasn't quit.

Media encoder time remaining stops decreasing and processor drops to zero. Time elapsed keeps going up! File won't complete!

Please help anyone who can.
Firstly I know I have very little RAM on my system, only 4GB but I've been rendering the same kinds of files for weeks with no problems until the last few days.
They biggest issues is as follows:
My timeline in Premiere Pro CC 2014 has 1080p 50mbps MXF footage from a Sony PMW 200 and some similar footage replaced with an After Effects comp for green screen keying.
The clip, approx 2min, starts with a linked comp from after effects, then cuts to the mxf footage and back to a linked comp at the end.
I am exporting via media encoder to h264 1080p. The file rendered fine for about 40min with the processor at 50% approx. The processor then shot up to 99% for 10 mins and the render progress bar
went up to almost 90% complete.
Then the progress bar stopped, the processor dropped to 0%, time remaining is steadily climbing and so is time elapsed. I've tried pausing and un pausing the render que and nothing else is running in background.
I need these files rendered tonight!! I've tried this a few times and this problem keeps occurring sometimes with the remaining time shooting up to 74 hours!!
Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong?!
Windows 7 Professional (64 bit)
Dell Precision workstation 690
Intel xeon X5365 3ghz (x2)
4 GB RAM

Sounds exactly like what is happening to me. This is frustrating because it was a 30 hour encoding process and the place where it is stuck is right at the very end of the sequence on the 2nd pass, although there is still about 12% of the progress bar remaining. I guess that this is where it takes all its work and puts the separate files into the single video file. I really don't want to go through this again. The final video file is showing up though and is shown having the size that I am expecting it to be.
Any workarounds to somehow get this unstuck? I am hesitant to just try and open the file. I am going to try a couple of things and if I am successful at getting this to finish without restarting then I will be sure to post it here.
Also, I don't know if this has anything to do with this problem, but I looked at my system Activity Monitor, and there is a CPU process highlighted in red, it states:
Adobe QT32 Server (not responding)
Thirty minutes later...
I was incorrect above as to the actual problem. I paused the queue encoding that was stuck, then opened up the project again in Premiere Pro only to discover that there was an offline still image which I stupidly had renamed during the day. So I renamed the file back to its original name, reconnected the picture, saved the PP project. Then I started the encoding back up and still no luck.
So I paused the encoding again, went back into the PP project and rendered just the area under question, saved it, and exported it into the queue. Then just to be safe I went to the paused item in AME, and duplicated it adding another version into the queue.
Then I unpaused the encoding and ... SUCCESS!! Not sure which of the final steps did the trick, but I am guessing that it was the rendering of the part of the sequence that it was stuck on. Hope this helps someone.

Premiere Pro / Media Encoder crash during encoding

Afternoon guys, wonder if anyone has any tips on how to solve my issue. It's a new pc that I'm working on, my first project on it, everything working great in terms of the edit, but crashing whilst encoding both through Premiere Pro and Media Encoder with an error message (below). I'm not great with this stuff so please let me know if I need to provide more info and I'll provide much information as I can.
I'm a creative cloud user.
-Premiere Pro cs 6 (6.0.3) - I have tried to re-install the software, and ran all the updates yesterday after the install. Problem still persists.
-Encoder cs6 (6.0.3.1)
-Windows 7 Professional service pack 1, 64bit. Whilst I was online re-installing Premiere Pro windows did some updates (I generally keep my editing pc's offline).
-DSLR footage (.mov) for video, up to 3 sources of video (nested for multicam shoot) and running one source of audio (mp3 file). Two of the timelines I'm trying to encode are about 45 minutes long.. I have succesfully encoded other clips (a 5 minute, and a 35 minute previously. Miraculously this morning I encoded a 1h12m clip using the mpeg2-dvd preset with only adjustment of quality bumped from 4 to 5). So this was encoded after all the updates, however since then everything else is not working.
-Initially encoder was either freezing, or giving me an error message. Since re-installing all the software yesterday it now does not freeze, but I get the error message: "Adobe Media Encoder CS6.0 has stopped working... A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." I get the same message when encoding with both AME and Premiere Pro. I click "close" from here and nothing else happens.
-Trying to export to mpeg2-dvd, I have tried the PAL widescreen preset, as well as trying to adjust the settings, doesn't seem to make a difference, the error message pops up different points during encoding.
-The only plugin I have used is magic bullet looks for some grading. It also fails to encode with no plugins used.
-PC     - Intel i7-3770 @ 3.40ghz,
          - 32GB ram
          - Operating system and Adobe Suite on c: (SSD 240gb)
          - Project source footage (video, audio, etc) f: (2tb)
          - Encoding files to e: (SSD 240gb)
          - my case is an Antec 902, with no additional fans. It does sound like it's working harder during encoding, not sure if a heat issue could be causing the software to error?
-I am using the mercury playback engine with a Gefore gtx 680 (2gb).
I have not been able to find any definitive answeres with regard to the crashes. I did also have encoder hanging whilst reading the xmp file. I have tried encoding video only (audio disabled) and whilst it doesn't hang during reading of xmp file, it still stops working with the above error message.
I also run an older PC with i920, 24gig, gtx570 and it never crashes but performs much slower. It is also running windows 7, same setup but different hardware. Not sure if the hardware on my new pc could be causing the issues, if you you guys have any troubleshooting tips it would be much appreciated. At this point i have tried starting a new project, new timelines, nothing seems to work, so I have transferred the data to my old pc for encoding (as I need to deliver the discs to a client), but I need to get this new setup working properly.
Cheers,
Stevan

Hi Axel,
Thanks for your suggestions, I just tried cleaning out the media cache and also rendered out a wav file of the audio and placed it in the timeline and deleted the mp3 version.. Tried once again to encode an mpeg2-dvd file.
1st attempt encoding through Media Encoder, pal widescreen with variable bit rate set to 6, 7 and 8 = everything froze, had to restart via button.
2nd attempt encoding through Media Encoder = this time tried video only same settings just no audio = same error (Adobe Media Encoder cs6.0 has stopped working...)
3rd attempt encoding through Premiere Pro, same settings with audio = same error message.
4th attempt encoding through Media Encoder, pal wide preset as standard with no change = same error message.
5th attempt encoding through Media Encoder, h264 preset for vimeo, 720p = same error message.
6th attempt encoding through Media Encoder, AVI (Uncompressed) 720 x 480 preset. 1m40s in the dreaded blue screen appeared. "A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval. " Bla bla bla.
In all instances the encoding is absolutely flying, but always ends up crashing.

Adobe Media Encoder CS6 crashes when quit

OS X 10.7.4
Multiple hardware types
Adobe Media Encoder CS6 as installed from Adobe Production Premium CS6. NOTE: CS6 was installed under a different user than the new user that is having AME crash.
Issue:
Open AME. Encode a file or do not encode a file because the end result does not matter. Now quit AME (either hotkey or File --> Quit). AME then crashes. Keep in mind that no other CS6 programs are affected this way, just AME.
I ran into this problem weeks ago and found a solution that worked. The fix was to delete one of the many many folders Adobe creates in your user folder. The problem now is I cannot find that same posting where the fix was listed.
I deleted this "mystery folder" we will call it and then AME CS6 worked fine. The catch was that I had to redo the whole "Adobe ID" sign in BS and retype the serial number when I opened one of the other programs.
Any guesses as to where this folder might be so I can delete it again? I was hoping some others may have run into this same issue. I will keep looking for the fix, and post it back here if I finally find it.

Just deleting the Adobe Media Encoder folder in the given directory works just fine and this saves a lot of trouble because your settings are maintained as are your presets.
But thanks a lot for the help

Premire Pro CC 2014 and Media Encoder Crash During Launch

Premire Pro and Media Encoder crash during startup and are unusable. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate and already tried reinstalling Adobe Creative Cloud from scratch and it's still happening. I also tried following Adobes KB articles directions to rename the Adobe folder in my documents and appdata to no avail. When I try to launch either application, I get a generic windows crash message "Adobe Premire Pro CC 2014.0 has stopped working" and when I click problem details, it lists this:

I am having a similar problem.
Premiere Pro CC 2014 suddenly decided to crash every time I export to either Adobe Media Encoder or within Premiere itself.
The encode will usually go for 5-10 minutes before the programs either spits out a "serious error has occurred" window, or it just sits there frozen until I force quit.
I did find a work-around for the moment. If I open AME and FILE > OPEN, select my project and then the sequence I want, AND put it in Software render mode, it will work.
My timeline is 2K, 58 minutes in 23.976
Only effects applied are Lumetri LUTs - no third party.
I've exported as recently as a week ago without issue.
Running OSX 9.5 on an X99 board
3.75 GHz 8-core
64GB 2400 MHz RAM
EVGA Titan Black 6GB
Because I can get my renders out, I am not too concerned. Either there is something wonky with my timeline that screws with any graphics enabled rendering, or there is a bug that is have the same effect. I will try rendering on another of my edit bays that utilizes a GTX 580 that I KNOW works. The Titan is pretty new to my workflow.
Thanks Adobe, for checking this out.
