Media Encoder Not Exporting as DV NTSC

ya, so as the title says. I've gotten too used to the ease of export that Final Cut Pro 6 along with the additional Compressor 3 provides. My problem begins when I open up Media Encoder and drag some video files from a P2 card into it. My export options are very limited.... NO QUICKTIME MOV OPTION. Even when I export the clips or a sequence from Premier Pro CS4, the export options allow me to select Quicktime, but when I submit it, Media Encoder opens and does nothing. It doesn't even load the sequence or clips. How do I get a Quicktime export option?

Crud..... The thing is... reinstalling is a pain, last night I reinstalled without running the clean script but, normally, installing Production Premium crashes my system. I tried reinstalling 6 times last night and it would crash from between checking the system and installing. Giving me the grey, restart your system now, screen. I had to boot in safe mode and install it. Now this happens when I run it and it tries to install media exporter cs4 ...
I can use the app, and export to quicktime, but alot of the other formats are missing and this dialogue box is getting pretty annoying.
and these are the formats I have now

  • Does Adobe Media Encoder save/export in swf format?

    Does Adobe Media Encoder save/export in swf format?
    If yes how?
    Thanks

    SWF is not a video format. That is why the Flash Video (FLV and F4V) formats exist.
    The are very inefficient ways of making SWF behave in some ways like a video format, such as creating a SWF file that uses a sequence of JPEG or PNG image frames, but such files are enormous and have other problems. After Effects has this option, which was created before Flash Video (F4V and FLV) formats were invented, but that does not mean that a modern video encoder like AME should add this very obsolete feature.
    The way that people create video for Flash Player is to create F4V or FLV files. You can embed or link those in a SWF file using Flash Professional.

    media encoder not showing in cloud apps - I receive an error opening it and I want to reinstall but it is not in the download list

    Hello, Adobe?

  • Media Encoder will export H.264 720 but not 1080

    I'm on Windows 7, using Premiere and After Effects.
    I've installed updates for the OS, Quicktime, and Adobe applications.  I've, opened Premiere under a different user, tried holding shift and alt on opening Premiere and uninstalled  Premiere and After Effects.  I even tried taking the Media Encoder directory out of the applications directory, then reloading Premiere and After Effects (no joy). The Media Encoder directory didn't rebuild itself. 
    The problem is specific to exporting H.264 in 1920x1080.  It doesn't matter if it progressive or interlace, or any of the other variables, up or down.  1080 fails and 720 will export.
    Does anyone have another suggestion for me to try?
    Thanks in advance.

    I was able to uninstall Media Encoder by uninstalling a long list of CC applications; Prelude, InDesign, Flash, After Effects, Premiere, Speed Grade, and Photoshop.  In addition to uninstalling the applications, I did a search on my drive for any file with "media encoder" in the name or directory and deleted them.  That search, by the way, was the only way I was able to confirm how many applications were connected to Media Encoder.  There was suprisingly little on the subject in the Adobe library.
    When I reinstalled Premiere, Media Encoder came along with it.  Media Encoder is now working again.

  • Adobe Media Encoder - .wmv export not provided?

    I'm using Adobe Media Encoder CS6 on a Windows 7 machine.  I need render out a Windows Media format (.wmv) but it is not found in any of the presets or from the format drop-down menu.  Only F4V, FLV, H.264, H.264 (Legacy) and MP3 are available.
    I can't find any information that indicates that I need to install extra codecs, but I believe this is the problem.
    Or, maybe it's the version of Creative Suite that doesn't allow for certain file formats?
    Anyone?
    Thanks.

    Hi thanser,
    Adobe Media Encoder has all the codecs like QuickTime, WMV and others if you have any Video application Like, Premiere Pro, After Effects or SpeedGrade installed because these are royalty bearing codecs and can be activated if you have Video application installed and activated with the respective serial number. If you have license for Indesign, Illustrator or Photoshop you might not get these codecs. So, The video applications are provided with Master Collection suite or Production Premium suite and if you have any other suite you can only use Video Products as a trial for 30 days and get these codecs for a limited time.

    Vinay

  • Adobe Media Encoder not launching when I clicked queue in Export Media

    Hi guys,
    I have been trying for about 3 weeks now trying to render my work using Adobe Media Encoder but it just won't launch as mentioend in my subject line. Upon clicking on queue, the animation showing "preparing data for export" and "exporting data" appeared and disappeared and then nothing happens. Resuming to work on my project in Premiere Pro becomes impossible and a semi-transparent white screen appears over Premiere Pro and it hangs with a message from Windows 7 appearing saying that Premiere Pro has stopped responding.
    Here are a few things that I have tried:
    Updating all of my softwares included in the Production Premium Suite CS5.5
    Deleting all files in the folder C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\5.5
    Pressing Ctrl + Alt +Shift and launching Premiere Pro
    Pressing Ctrl + Alt +Shift and launching Adobe Media Encoder
    Opening sequence in Adobe Media Encoder to try to render
    Called up Adobe Asia Pacific only to be told that I will charged something like USD$39 if they were to help me
    Disabling Mercury Engine Playback capability
    The only work around I'm doing now is to copy the files to another computer and rendering from there.
    Can anyone else suggest another way or point me in the right direction please?
    My com's specs are as follow:
    Windows 7 Premium 64-bit Operating System
    16Gb RAM
    Intel Core i7 CPU [email protected]
    System type: 64-bit Operating System
    Display Adapter: nVidia GeForce GTX560Ti
    Many thanks people.

    The X58 platform uses triple channel memory mode if you use 3 or 6 memory sticks, but if you use 4 slots, memory will only be used in single or dual channel mode, depending on which slots are occupied. Amount of memory has more impact than the mode used, but you may get better performance from 24 GB (6 x 4 GB).
    However, I don't think that will solve your issue. Having only two disks is minimum. Adding a disk can certainly help, see Adobe Forums: Generic Guideline for Disk Setup
    Have you turned of indexing and compression on both disks, have you uninstalled the sidebar, MSN and games? Have you disabled unneeded services, etc.?
    It says Vista but also applies to Win7: Adobe Forums: Guide for installing and tuning a Vista...
    DSLR material is usually HD, but .VOB files are SD, so there is a lot of scaling going on when exporting. Make sure you have enabled hardware MPE. Also have a look at Adobe Forums: System requirements for CS5

  • APP exporting to A Media Encoder - not launching

    I am going to export my video from Adobe Premier Pro to Adobe Media Encoder. Everything appears OK, Media Encoder launches in my doc, but i can't see the Media Encoder window with the cued items in it. I cannot figure out how to view the Media Encoder Window. I'm on a Mac working with CS4 for both softwares. Anyone else have this issue or an idea?
    It was working great for me at the office today. Only thing i can think is that i had an external monitor plugged into my MBP there, now i'm just using my laptop. Do you think the Media Encoder window could be displaying off my screen? Can't figure out how to view it.
    Please help! I need to export this video asap.

    Going between the laptop's monitor and a dual, often causes issues like this. Basically, the other window/program is now off-screen on what is now a "phantom" monitor.
    I'd try again, at work, and think about the change that will take place at home. Drag all programs to the laptop's monitor, before you close.
    Good luck,

    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.

  • Media Encoder/Premiere Export Crashing During long file exports

    I'm running Premiere Pro CC 2014 on a windows 7 computer--a Livestream Studio HD500. I use the computer to capture live video, which is saved as large AVI motion-jpeg files. I need to edit and export these files as compressed h.264 videos for upload to the web.
    I am able to import these files into premiere and work with them, but the program crashes to desktop during any long export. I am able to export very short (1 or 2 minute) videos just fine, but anything longer will crash to desktop after a few minutes of processing. Media encoder also crashes when attempting to compress the videos prior to processing.
    I have been able to circumvent this problem by compressing the files I'm working with in advance using virtualdub, but it adds an annoying step to the workflow that I'd like to eliminate. Shouldn't premiere be able to import, edit, and export compressed versions of these files without crashing?
    Note: I've tried turning off GPU rendering and clearing my cache several times.
    Thoughts? Much appreciated.

    Maybe this problem?

    1.Close all Adobe applications.
    2.In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. (If you installed Premiere Pro CS4 in a location other than the default of C:\Program Files\Adobe, then navigate to your custom installation location.)
    3.Right-click on Adobe Premiere Pro.exe (which might appear without the .exe extension) and choose Create Shortcut.
    4.Rename the newly created shortcut to just Premiere.
    Important: The name of the shortcut must be exactly Premiere with no other characters.
    5.Open a second Windows Explorer window, and navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink.
    6.Move the Premiere shortcut that you created into the dynamiclink folder.
    Thanks again. Hope this helps others as well.

  • Matrox Media Encoder not working in CS4

    Good day,
    I have just purchased a used RTX2/ CS4 bundle which includes the card and breakout box.
    I am currently using RTX2/CS3 which I bought way back in 2008 and is still working on my PC with Windows XP Professional (32bit) running Service Pack 3.
    The existing PC was built according to Matrox System requirements:
    Intel(R) Core™2 Quad CPU@240GHz with 4GB RAM etc
    So all the hardware on the machine is working with RTX2/CS3 without any problems.
    I have installed CS4/RTX2  on the same machine and everything shows that it has installed correctly.
    In device manager the card and drivers can be seen.
    When opening Premiere CS4 the Matrox logo dispays and all the effects and presets can be accessed. The tune does not play when the logo is displayed.
    The only problem is that when trying to export a sequence the Matrox Media Encoder option is not available.
    When selecting File > Export > the only options available are:
    Media
    Adobe Clip Notes
    Export to EDL
    Export to OMF
    There seems to be a missing link to activate the Matrox Media Encoder option.
    Please help as I paid a lot of money for this hardware/software bundle which does not work.
    Regards,
    Johan
    My RTX2/CS3 software is registered with Adobe as well as Matrox and I will do the same with RTX2/CS4 as soon as I can get them to work.

  • Having major issues with Adobe Media Encoder (AME) - exporting with weird image flickering/colour anomalies, crashing regularly, freezing during encode...!

    Hi Guys
    I am having some real issues with Adobe Media Encoder (AME) at the moment.  It appears that I am unable to encode an h.264 for Vimeo from a Premiere Pro Project file at the moment without at least some weird image issues that are not supposed to be there.  These include weird flickering, colour changes, artefacts etc.  This is if I am lucky...often I am unable to get the process to complete as the application either crashes and tells me there has been a problem or it simply freezes and I have to force quit the application and often restart my machine.
    The problem seems to not to just be with h.264 for the web encodes but also with BluRay h.264 as well. As yet I haven't seen if there is a problem with MPEG-2 for DVD so I will check this out too!
    Does anyone else see this happening or does anyone know what might be the problem?
    I thought the Premiere Pro project might have been corrupt so tried a different project but the same issues were happening here too.
    Any help would be really gratefully received.
    Cheers
    EDIT - I have just found this online which is exactly the problem I am having! Thanks a bloody bunch Apple! 10.9.3 causing headaches for Mac Pro users | MacIssues
    Message was edited by: Alex Cameron

    Agreed, I now have a project to GET OUT, and AME crashes consistently 1/3 into the render. It appears to halt all processing after (real time) 00:02:30
    Am seriously considering uninstalling CC as I am beginning to find other issues in some apps, and going back to CS6/MC just so I can get work out. Durn it Adobe this is AWFUL!!
    Alright, let's try to be constructive instead of throwing rocks... but the frustration level is high, and I have material on deadline. Let's get with this, guys...
    What OS Win7, 64-bit
    What version of AME/PPro (Please be specific by getting the full version number in the About Adobe Media Encoder screen) 8.2.0.54 Ppro: 8.2.0 (65)
    When is it crashing (Again, the more detail here about where it was in the encoding process the better) roughly 1/3 into the sequence, always on exactly the same frame - tried replacing the clip with something different to see if it was a timeline error, and NO EFFECT.
    What is your source (PPro project or media file (what kind?)) PPro
    If the source if a PPro project, does it work when exporting directly from PPro? NO
    What format are you exporting to? H.264, QT, WM, tried everything my client can play.
    Do other formats work? MPEG2, QuickTime, etc? NO
    Have you tried with GPU rendering on? How about turning it off by switching to Software-only mode? Mine doesn't have any choice, it's software-only.

    Other things I tried: uninstalling/reinstalling AME, setting cache to a fast local disk.
