Media Encoder suddenly won't recognize Quicktime files...

Hi there...
I'm on a Mac, and out of the blue, Media Encoder suddenly doesn't recognize Quicktime .mov files. It says this file format is not supported. Which is weird, because it was supporting it just fine this morning! Does anyone know what might be wrong or how to fix this?
Thanks for your help!

Im having the same issue. Were you able to resolve it?

Premiere and Media Encoder Crashing During Export of Quicktime Files

Premiere CC and Media Encoder CC crashes when exporting Quicktime H.264 files. Sometimes the export will work, sometimes it crashes the app. After crashing, the app will freeze while loading "ExporterQuictimeHost.bundle" and requires a hard re-boot of the system to startup again.
I have tried removing some Quicktime codecs from the Quicktime library folder, as suggested in other threads. This has not solved the problem.
I am editing with Quicktime ProRes 4444 files.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Here's some system info:
Mac Pro Mid 2010
OS X 10.9.4
2 x 2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
36 GB Memory
NVIDIA Quadro FX 4800 1536MB
Blackmagic DeckLink HD Extreme
Cuda Driver Version 6.5.14
Creative Cloud CC 2014

I'm having similar problems. I can't export anything now...either from Premiere or from Media Encoder. My sequence is ProRes HQ, I am exporting using sequence settings.
It gets about 75% of the way through and bails with this error message:
Export Error
Error compiling movie.
Unknown error.
That's really helpful. Addtionally, when I tried to export out of Media Encoder, I was greeted by an extremely loud bleating goat noise when it failed. Nice. I had a room full of clients. Thanks Adobe.
I'm seriously doubting the claim of "Pro" at this point.
This was not beta tested with a ****.

ITunes Suddenly Won't Recognize Music Files

I have synced my iPod with my Toshiba laptop more times than I can count. When I opened iTunes this morning, iTunes did not show any of my music/podcasts, etc. After a moment of panic, I realized that everything was still on my computer and in my iPod, but it is as if this was a brand new version of iTunes. iTunes also "sses" my iPod, but will not let me change anything. I seem to recall accepting an automatic upgrade of iTunes recently (is this what I get for not using Safari?) but I think I have used iTunes since then. What gives? Do I need to reconstruct my library in iTunes? If so, will I lose my Playlists? Did the upgrade cause this problem?
Message was edited by: ChefDad

yes i can play them with other players. i've tried 6.0.1 still the same problem. i had cleared my library, files kept of course, and just added my music folder to the library. they were all there before. i think it won't recognize cds that i've imported using musicmatch and itunes in the past. does anyone know why? thanks

CS4 suddenly won't recognize Nikon files

Is it really true Adobe is not going to offer the plugin necessary to make my less than a year old copy of CS4 compatible with my new Nikon D7000? Does anyone have the 6.3 plugin, or know where I can get it so I can try to hack it into my CS4? There is no way I will every buy another Adobe product if they are basically making my $300 program garbage in less than a year, so I would really like to know a way around this. The dng conversion is inadequate since I shoot thousands of photos. Thanks!

Ed, I doubt very much that the authors of a professional image processing package would even begin to consider leaving anything up to chance.
You do know that they provide the free DNG converter, so that anyone with a new camera CAN convert the very latest camera files to a format all the older Photoshops understand, right? It's not like they're leaving people out in the cold.
People often seem to think it's okay to pay thousands for a new camera, but their old software should just be updated by the manufacturer for free... And in this case it actually is, when you consider the DNG converter. If you think about it, it's a brilliant strategy by Adobe.
But if you want the ultimate convenience of full integration and not having to do an extra step of conversion, well, then the old saying applies: "If you want to play you have to pay". Buy the Photoshop upgrade.
-Noel
Sure they leave a ton of things up to chance. If they didn't they would actually come out with a version that didn't need updating 1, 2, 3 time over the course of it's life (wouldn't that be nice).
The DNG convert only works IF ACR and the convert has been updated to accept the new RAW file. That is why everytime a new ACR is released a new convert is released. If you have a old version of the convert try using it on newer camera files, it doesn't work. So everyone is still left out in the cold until Adobe gets around to updating ACR and converter.
No I'm not looking for any free upgrades to PS. I don't want Adobe to include whatever new features they may have in a newer version of PS and ACR ported back to the older version. But to UPDATE ACR to see newer cameras, say for at least one version, IE CS3's ACR never gets updates after CS5 comes out but they update CS4 ACR until CS6 comes out. You still don't get the newest feature set in the newer version. You just get newer camera models.
I play and I pay. I have had PS 6 CS2/3/4 and now 5. I could of just upgraded Lightroom and stayed with CS3 or 4 but I don't paticularly care for Lightroom and I rarely used the 2 versions I've had. Just like you don't use Bridge.
Oh and that other problem I was having with CS5 closing with a RUNTIME ERROR when you and I first butted heads. Funny but on the exact same hardware and the exact same OS, XP, on the exact same install of the OS. After a complete uninstall of PS and good cleaning of the registry and a reinstall I don't get those errors. So to me it was PS that was causing it.
Something in the lines of the *x*x*x MVM*x*x.xxx files being created on some random drive by PS and representatives of Adobe stating the it wasn't PS creating those files. It was some 3rd party plugin. When in fact it was PS that created them. I get them in the ROOT of my D drive. My D drive is where I have PS installed but is not used for image files or the PS scratch disk or system Temp.

IPod full but now won't recognize any files; how to fix without "restore"?

My iPod mini suddenly won't recognize any of my files or extensive playlists. I just uploaded several songs to it, and when I disconnected and tried to play it, it suddenly showed as completely empty, like I'd deleted everything. I plugged it back in, and while nothing shows up in iTunes with - no songs, no playlists - it says it's still nearly full.
Reading another thread, I found the files on the iPod through My Computer. So they are still there, but for whatever reason the iPod, literally suddenly, can't recognize them as present. How do I fic this WITHOUT having to restore the iPod and then re-add those files (and recreate all of my playlists?)
Please, please help!

See this.

Lightroom (4.3) won't recognize the file type while importing from Canon 5d Mark iii

Anyone mind helping me trouble shoot why my Lightroom (4.3) won't recognize the file type of my Canon 5D Mark iii ?
I have seen this in a couple other threads but none of those suggestions worked for me. I am also a Mac user.

The above contradicts with this:
Bomal9 wrote:
I am downloading images through the Canon EOS Utility manager and have to import the photos in a folder into Lightroom.
So my reading of that is that you ARE importing Raw files from the 5D3 into Lightroom, but having to use a roundabout route to do so. Is that correct? If so, how are you trying to import when you "cannot import raw files into Lightroom", are you using a card reader or direct camera attachment? Have you tried both methods? And what happens when you do try?

Quicktime won't recognize MOV files?

QT won't open MOV files, and gives a -2048 error that says it is not a file it recognizes. I know other people who are able to open the same files fine on their Mac computers, so I don't think it's a problem with the file...

The -2048 error message usually means the file is MPEG-2 format.
QuickTime can't view MPEG-2 without additional software ($20).

Media Encoder CC won't render Magic Bullet Denoiser II

Hello there,
i've got the following Problem: I am having Premiere CC and used the Red Giant Plug-In Denoiser II on my last project, when i import this project to the Media Encoder and select Quicktime for output, the Media Encoder won't render the clip with this Plug-In. i always get the original files out, without the denoiser. Original footage from in premiere is 2,5k CinemaDNG RAW from the Black Magic Cinema Camera.
thx

I feel like there was a recent update to the RG plugins (inside of the last 30 or so days.) Are they up to date?

Media Encoder CC won't queue

When I attempt to queue from Adobe Premiere Pro CC to Media Encoder CC using any quicktime setting from the "Format" drop down menu in the export dialog box, Media Encoder just sits there doing nothing.
No luck with the following forum, which suggests a bunch of solutions, (restart AME holding down shift, quit hung instances of Adobe stuff from the activity monitor, etc., etc.) all of which I've tried, to no avail.
Media Encoder won't queue
If I queue up with any other preset, such as H.264. Everything works fine. But I need to export to quicktime and I have a big series of small clips to export that I need to get started on, so this is really frustrating...
I'm running OS X (10.10) with the latest CC builds of Premiere Pro and Media Encoder..

Yes, import into premiere work fine. The nice part about using AME directly is you don't have to have to create a project or use an old one every time you want to crunch a timelapse. Also, AME has this nice feature where it will autoname the output file IMG[FirstStill]-[LastStill] (ie IMG[GP001234-GP001297]). This was helpful because GoPros change the first number in the sequence every time you stop and start time lapse.

IMovie won't recognize certain 'File extensions' ??

Hi,
can anyone help here. I use Handbrake to compress Movie files before I use Quicktime to 'export to web' option, then import to iMovie to then edit before submitting ti iTunes ( keeps the size down but still have good quality ). Anyway even though the files from Handbrake have either a .mov or .m4v extension iMovie won't recognize them, but if I then use QT export to web ( which in turn makes a folder with the new files inside ) which have the .m4v, iMovie will see it !!
Any ideas please.
The compressed file under Handbrake is small but good quality ( 2.3Gb down to 178Mb ) but if I use QT it then becomes even bigger ( 539Mb ) !!!!!
Steve

I'm new to Handbrake so could you tell me what do you mean by 'Don't include extraneous data tracks' ?
Most people use HandBrake to convert DVD content (usually multiplexed M2V video and AC3 audio) to iPhone, iPod, TV, iTunes/Front Row files for viewing and/or iMovie '08 compatible files for editing. Since DVD content usually contains chapter data and the default setting for Apple device presets like TV normally default to include the chapter track data and (in older versions) may default to include an extra AC3 "passthrough" audio track, the output from such conversions are not supported by iMovie '08. If this is true, then re-exporting the content as you described would remove the extraneous data and explain why the files are incompatible with iMovie '08 before export and compatible after.
However, you have not confirmed that the incoming files are, in fact, stored on DVDs or indicated which specific settings are being used for your HandBrake conversions. iMovie '08 is only "edit" compatible with files containing DV, AIC, Motion-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, and certain profiles of MPEG-4 or H,264 video compressed data. So there is always a secondary possibility here that you are selecting an incompatible form of output form HandBrake and then using the "Export for Web" option to accidentally convert the incompatible compression format to a compatible one since this option exports to H.264/AAC by default.
If you have a much better way of doing this I am all ears especially if it makes my life easier, I am on a steep learning curve here ( sending video podcasts to iTunes but in good quality ).
The normal approach would be to select the iPod preset within HandBrake (or within QT Pro, GarageBand, MPEG Streamclip, etc. if the source file is QT compatible) and convert directly to an iMovie '08 compatible file. The iPod preset would create a file equivalent to the "Desktop" (1500 Kbps) file created by the "Export for Web..." option but, as previously mentioned may contain a "chapter" track if you fail to turn it off. If you want a smaller output file, then all you have to do is reduce the target data rate in HandBrake. If you are currently editing the equivalent of the iPhone file (900 Kbps) using your current work flow, then reduce the target average bit rate to 900 or 1000 Kbps before exporting from HandBrake. Basically, this approach is faster since you do not have to export the data twice. On the other hand, it is a bit more complicated since you have to manually ensure any extraneous data tracks are de-selected and that the correct compressing preset/settings are selected.

My FCP3 won't recognize .mov file

Hello folks, I had finished a project about a month ago and in order to save my hard drive disk space, I erased all the source footages right after I got the final product made which was the DVD.
However, now I am trying to produce the different langauge version with the same footages which was exported as .mov file that was used for first project and I tried to import the same .mov files into my FCP3 to work on it but it says "unknown file" error msg.
I thought that .mov file is the primary recognizable file format for every FCP and why this is happening?
I paid for translation of the script and everything, if it won't work, I am screwed! please folks help me and I'd really appreciate it!
THanks

Well,
If you exported your movie as a NON-SELFCONTAINED quicktime file, you need to recapture your original footage. FCP can not play a file when the referenced video does not exist.
cheers,

Media Encoder CC won't launch

I've been succesfully working with media encoder for sometime now but it won't start for some reason. Using Mac OS 10.6.8, icore 7 proc, 16gb RAM, Encoder CC 6.0.2 what's causing this?

Thanks, It started working after I logged into my Adobe account. Curious if that had anything to do with it. I also tried a few options (similar to this) I found in the forum which didn't help until I restarted. Not sure which one did it but it's all good now. Thanks!

Media Encoder CC won't import a JPEG sequence to the queue

I am running Media Encoder CC 7.2.2.29 (64-bit) on OSX 10.9.4.
I have a JPEG sequence GoPro timelapse image sequence that I want to encode into a video clip. All files have a .jpg extension. They are 4000x3000 and have an RGB color space. The Color profile is SRGB IEC61966-21. All images are 3.9MB.
According to the ME help I should do the following.
To add an image sequence, choose File > Add Source. In the Open dialog box, choose the first file of the image sequence. Enable the Sequence Import checkbox for your file type, and then click the Open button.
I follow the instructions and select the first image in the sequence. The "JPEG File Sequence" checkbox is active and I check it and click the Open button. The dialog disappears and nothing happens. There are no warnings.
How does one get JPEG sequences to import to the queue?
Please advise.
