MPEG 2 codec missing from AME 5

I am missing several codecs from AME (MPEG-2 being the most significant for my current needs). I found in the forums that this was somewhat common for CS6 users who downloaded from Cloud, but I haven't seen it as an issue with CS5 users. The software is completely up to date. Is there a place the codec may be hiding? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Sounds like the Master Collection suite.  If it's licensed you should have a full list of exporters.  You can also double-check what suite is installed by doing the following:
Windows: open the Start > All Programs menu
Mac: go to Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers/
Here's a similar thread about missing QuickTime exporters.  This is what worked for one user:
For those who might have the same problem on windows 7, I finally made it working by replacing all the AME files (Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Media Encoder CS6) with the ones from another installation on another PC. Then instead of uninstalling and reinstalling AME, i just reinstalled it over the previous installation (with AE) and it finally works! All the export options are now available! I should have tried this before a system restore...
It's kind of a hack but apparent it worked for them...  Also check out my earlier comment on the same thread about deleting preference files, that may work as well.

  • New document about sequence presets and codecs missing from Premiere Pro

    If you're having problems with sequence presets and codecs missing from Premiere Pro, see this document for solutions for this activation issue.
    This document relates to the following problems:
    - missing sequence presets when creating a new sequence
    - Encore error: "Encore will not launch in non-royalty bearing mode. The application needs to be serialized with a royalty bearing serial number."
    - When opening a project in Premiere Pro: "Error Adobe Premiere Pro: This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
    - When importing footage, the footage is missing audio or video.
    These failures are all because Premiere Pro and Encore use some codecs that require activation before they can be used. If activation of these codecs has failed, these codecs will not be available to use.

    Well done.

  • How do I install the DNxHD and Cineform codecs? (Missing from AME 6 )

    I have downloaded the free versions of both of these codecs in the hopes of being able to transcode to each as an intermediate codec for my AVCHD files. The problem is that neither shows up in either my Premiere Pro CS6 or Adobe Media Encoder Import/Export options? What gives? Did I miss something here? How do I get the option to transcode or encode to DnxHD or Cineform on a PC version of CS6?

    The solution by @soulelle above worked for me. I didn't even have to reboot.
    Win 7 x 64
    Pr Pro CS6
    LE 2.3.7
    I ran the installer, moved the files from "C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\", launched Premiere, and the Avid codecs were in the list!
    Also, so the next persons doesn't have to track down the links, here they are for 2.3.7, 2.3.8, and 2.3.9.
    2.3.7

  • MPEG-2 codecs missing from Adobe Media Encoder CS6 installed with Creative Cloud Membership

    Some people who have downloaded Adobe Media Encoder with Premiere Pro CS6 as part of a Creative Cloud Membership subscription have a problem in which the MPEG2, MPEG2-DVD, MPEG2-Blu-ray, Dolby Digital, & MXF OP1a codecs are missing.
    To fix this issue, install the Adobe Media Encoder CS6 (6.0.1) update. Choose Help > Updates to install the update.

    It's true. We reached the conclusion that the version CS6 is inferior, a step back,  than 5 or 5.5. What's good about it, is the Audution CS6, which is a great replacement for the flawed Audition CS5 accompanying Suite 5.5. You can almost forget the Soundbooth ... Soundbooth ... hmmm, better not comment, but anyway, the most polite thing that i can say it, is that it is a demonstration of how a company decides that its users are not able to think and not able to learn or understants anything. Anything else that i want to say about Soundbooth can not be written here ....
    Adobe has demonstrates this development cicle along all this years. The products takes an uphill curve of development, and suddenly, goes back, showing wrong decisions was taken. So after some time , the products starts to evolve again . CS6 shows this stop evolving point. Now we have to wait untill new uphill curve of development starts again.
    Well, but like their predecessors AA CS6 still not are good enough to dispense Audition 3, but it is a good outcome for the Suite CS5.5 Audition at least was a sign of improvement in this Creative Suite CS6
    Many of the features and effects that have been deliberately taken out of version 5, now returned in 6, (some) showing that at Adobe at least recognizes when misses badly. But the optimal effects panel of AA3 did not return, some effects of AA3 as fade in and fade out did not come back in AA 6, the optimum VST support of AA3 to not are present in AA6 like many VST we have here that was expensive, you do not work in 6, thus, by these and other reasons we can still not dispense AA3.
    Maybe in CS7 we users cam be satisfied.

  • Mts codec missing from Premiere CS4, NOT trial version

    I've been all over support trying to get this fixed today, I hope I don't skip a detail. This link is to the answer that seems closest to my issue, maybe
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3114069#3114069
    I installed from my DVD's onto a laptop for a quick trip, didn't expect to need to leave it installed was going to use the trial and let it expire, no big deal, right?  Discovered that I need to activate to get the MTS codec to use my footage (sony HDR--###), so fine, I deactivated my PC version and activated the laptop.  Worked for a few days in the hotel.  Now I need to produce, but I hadn't installed Encore.  When I finish installing Encore nothing works right, so I deactivate and uninstall the whole suite from the laptop and re-install, get a activation problem (too many computers, worked it out with adobe chat) and once it was activated I didn't have the MTS codecs anymore, and since it's not a trial install, I can't figure out how to force the codec update.
    Do I really need to go back again and wipe/reinstall, per the linked suggestion?

    Short answer: Yes, otherwise you will not get your mts codec.

  • MPEG-2 option missing from Adobe Media Encoder (ver7.2.0.43)

    Hi all,
    Having an issue getting the MPEG-2 option for our Creative Cloud installation, specifically in Media Encoder's presets.
    The following steps were recommended on another Adobe forum addressing this issue:
    1.Uninstall Adobe Premiere Pro or the Creative Suite.
    2.Run the cleanup script found here: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    3.Reinstall Adobe Premiere Pro or the Creative Suite.
    4.Launch Adobe Premiere Pro.
    5.When prompted for activation during launch, ensure that the computer is online and complete activation.
    If the computer cannot be brought online, complete the offline activation during the first launch of the software. Do not choose to activate later.
    6.After Activation, close and restart Adobe Premiere Pro.
    We have been able to run through steps1 to 4, however the Activation option in #5 does not appear at all (must be activation is included as part of our CC license).
    Without the option to deactivate/activate Premiere how can we go about getting the MPEG-2 option to appear?
    Thanks again

    Hi Jim,
    I'm having the same problem of the mpeg 2 codecs missing from adobe media encoder.  I have 2 computers and on both of them the mpeg 2 options for encoding have disappeared today.  Can you please help? 

  • FAQ: Why are some codecs and sequence presets missing from my installation of Premiere Pro?

    If you're having problems with sequence presets and codecs missing from Premiere Pro, see this document for solutions for this activation issue.
    This document relates to the following problems:
    missing sequence presets when creating a new sequence
    Encore error: "Encore will not launch in non-royalty bearing mode. The application needs to be serialized with a royalty bearing serial number."
    When opening a project in Premiere Pro: "Error Adobe Premiere Pro: This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
    When importing footage, the footage is missing audio or video.
    These failures are all because Premiere Pro and Encore use some codecs that require activation before they can be used. If activation of these codecs has failed, these codecs will not be available to use.

    1. Deactivate
    2. Uninstall everything Adobe
    3. Run Clean Script CS4 2 or 3 times. Look here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406241.html
    4. Reinstall and activate
    5. Update
    Why did this happen? Because you have in the past used a trial version or your installation was faulty.

  • 5.0.2 Missing MPEG codecs?

    Hello All,
    The Adobe Updater just automatically updated Premiere CS5 to 5.0.2 and now I don't have any of the MPEG based codecs in my sequence presets. No AVCHD, no XD cam, nothing. Anybody else seen this, and how do you suppose one goes about regaining access to these now-missing codecs? I'm currently unable to continue working on my AVCHD projects.
    Chris

    Makes me wonder if going through that routine might solve my missing HDV CODEC's in Bridge problem?  But with Master Suite, I'm looking at setting aside beaucoup hours to uninstall, clean, reboot, clean reboot, reinstall, reactivate.
    Anyone have a gut feeling if that might help me rid my dependance on the 3rd party mpeg CODECS?

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS6 completely missing from Mastercollection CS6

    Computer Environment:
    MacBook Pro Early 2011
    Graphics  AMD Radeon HD 6490M 256 MB
    Memory  16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    SSD with 512GB; about 81GB are still free
    Mavericks  OS X 10.9.5
    Adobe Mastercollection CS6
    Quicktime Player (Standard)
    Problem:
    I am currently missing the sidekick Adobe Media Encoder (AME), even though I succesfully can run After Effects and Premier Pro.
    I cannot locate the AME app anywhere on my hard drive to launch it manually.
    Steps/general information:
    I initially was able to run AME, after fixing another problem with launching it by deleting the ExportQuickTimeHost.bundle / QuicktTimeHost.bundle as I have described in another post (https://forums.adobe.com/message/7221143#7221143 – #26 is my post).
    Unfortunately, the presets for Quicktime (I needed prores) were missing, even after I have done a workaround, by copying prores-codecs into AME plugins, as described in this post: martin-thoburn.com » Install the Apple ProRES codec without Final Cut or ProApps
    The next time launching QuickTime, I was not able to open it again.
    I uninstalled, reinstalled and updated After Effects and Premier Pro three times now and took away the QuickTimeHost.bundle from AME and Premiere Pro
    I also tried resetting ACL (through Utilities, when starting the MacBook with option key pressed down) as suggested by Seth Goldin in the post https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1010136
    I already tried wiping down the whole Adobe Suite, using the Cloud Cleaner Tool, delete the presets in the user library and then reinstall the apps: Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Acrobat, After Effects and Premiere Pro. There is now only the CS6 (and not for example some CC apps) on my Computer. All apps are up to date.
    I didn't install any other codecs by accident.
    Since AME was again not launching (Splash screen wasn't showing me any plugins, AME could have loaded). I simply deleted AME by trashing it.
    Now it's completely gone, even after reinstalling (and launching) After Effects and Premier Pro.
    By trying to install AME's updates (6.0.1 and 6.0.2) I naturally get an error message, since the main app is missing.
    I have battled with AME about half a year now, so things like reinstalling Lion and then Mavericks has occurred before as well.
    And unfortunately, I am in the middle of a big project, which is due in a month and two days. Hope the links are not too confusing
    – please look through them though, as the solutions I tried out are very clearly written in those posts.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Update in chronological order:
    I uninstalled the Cloud, which I kept for making updates; I also uninstalled everything from Adobe (CS6 mastercollection)
    I ran the Cloud cleaner tool
    I reinstalled only Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Premier Pro, After Effects and Acrobat. Bridge and AME were installed as sidekicks of Photoshop and AE/PP.
    So this has solved problem 1 already.
    On to problem 2 (update only):
    updated all adobe software, incl. DynamicLinkMediaServerRetail-1.0.1-mul-AdobeUpdate
    I installed Final Cut Pro 7
    I (re)installed Quicktime 7.6.6*
    I downloaded the Prores Presets for AME (as you suggested in post #2)
    I tried opening AME – that did not work, as it hung on the ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle
    Went to AME app, right clicked on app icon to get "Show package content">Contents>Plug-Ins>Common and deleted ExporterQuickTimeHost.bundle and ImporterQuickTimeHost.bundle
    repeated last step with Premiere Pro and AE
    I opened AE
    I tried importing the presets through AME>import>presets... That did not work. I get this pop-up message:
    restarted my computer
    tried again to import AME without luck
    tried the solution of this discussion Re: Quicktime Export options are missing (only in AME) (post #8)
            since I noticed that mine was changed back after the reinstallation. No luck.
    restarted the computer again. No luck.
    Put back only the ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle into AME's package content
    tried to open AME without luck
    removed the Quicktimebundle once more to open AME (worked)
    opened PP to check if I could export in queue: AME does not open by itself, still.
    I tried opening a prores file (end as .mov) that I encoded at university (not on my provate computer) – did not worl
    I checked if I could open a mov-file which was not encoded to prores: that worked.
    I looked into Martin Thoburn's method again to try one more time in AME to find the settings "Quicktime". No luck.
    I also have a third problem that may be linked to this, since it also has to do with PP and AE:
    Re: Can anyone help? "DynamicLink" not available attempting to open Mov in Photoshop CS6
    My post there is #22.
    But now that I absolutely made sure that I do have the prores codecs,
    I strongly suspect that it may also be a problem, which is discussed here:
    Are the ProRes codec and .MOV file no longer supported?
    ...namely, that the codecs are just not visible. Unfortunately, this discussion is not resolved either.
    HarleyTDavis's post #30 of this discussion Are the ProRes codec and .MOV file no longer supported?
    suggests something complicated (because I yet would need another Adobe version), which I may try at some point.
    Alright. That is all the effort that I can afford in time for this. I am too exhausted to go on so I'll do a workaround in FCP
    – now that I got it – and will ask someone else to encode my outcome to a prores-Version.
    If I feel like it – and yeah, I'd rather work with the Adobe Suite CS6 mostly – I'll come back to this discussion after a having clean wiped my computer and reinstalled everything.
    Thanks to both of you for looking into this with me. I'm positive this can be solved – just not now.

  • Some Audio Missing from Exported Movie

    I've exported a movie from iMovie to iTunes for sharing with AppleTV but the sound is missing from the last 75% of the movie when played back in Itunes or AppleTV. All the sound is ok in the iMovie project so some of it appears to have gone missing when exporting to iTunes.
    I have tried re-exporting it but it's still the same result.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards
    Joe

    Like everyone else here, I'm just an iMovie user who volunteers to help answer questions.
    Unfortunately, recent changes to the Discussion software introduced bugs that make it very difficult to reply to user questions. Despite assurances by Forum administrators, these bugs are not being fixed.
    This is to ask that you contact Apple, suggesting that additional resources be allocated to fixing the Discussion software. Hopefully your support will encourage Apple to address these problems.
    Here's the man who should be able to get some action:
    Steve Jobs <[email protected]>
    I plan to include this message in postings until the issues are resolved.
    Joe, I've also seen problems exporting iMovie projects with the Apple TV exporter, although never the problem you mentioned.
    I suggest you try another way to configure your own export settings. Your goal will be to create an export very similar to Apple TV, but build it on your own. The Apple TV exporter uses the H.264 codec, used for many other exports too.
    (You can test this on one or two clips in the affected area before exporting the entire iMovie project. Use the "Share selected clips only" checkbox.)
    Instead of choosing the Apple TV export in the export dialog window, try choosing "Movie to MPEG-4". Then click on the Options button. Configure these settings:
    UNDER THE VIDEO TAB:
    Video Format: H.264
    Data Rate: 2653
    Optimized for: Download
    Image Size: Custom, 720x480
    Frame Rate: Current (or 29.97 for NTSC, 25 for PAL)
    UNDER THE AUDIO TAB:
    Audio Format: AACV-LC (Music)
    Data Rate: 128 kbps
    Channels: Stereo
    Output Sample Rate: Recommended
    Encoding Quality: Better
    When the export is done, change the file extension to ".m4v", the extension used by Apple TV, if you like. You'll want to test the movie in whatever ways you now use the traditional Apple TV movie.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Error Message Codec Missing or unavailable?

    I know there is already a thread about this... but I couldn't figure out how to add to that thread. I have been googling for like 2 hours and get this figured out! Sorry if this is a silly question, I am very new!
    A videographer sent my company a hard drive with video footage he took from our event. I need to split these clips up and import them to Premiere Pro.
    Here is all my info:
    Premiere Pro 6.0.2 just updated about an hour ago-
    Mac OS X 10.7.5
    I am trying to import and edit footage a video-ographer gave my company from an event. He sent it to us on an external hard drive. I am not sure what kind of camera he used.
    I have downloaded RedCode or whatever. Updated Premiere Pro.
    The file type is .mov. It plays fine in Quick Time 10, but only the sound plays in Quick Time Pro 7.
    The Codecs for this file are MPEG-2 AND LINEAR PCM,  TIMECODE
    I also need to split these clips into smaller clips before importing into Premiere Pro, the clips are all between 8-11GB, if you want to help me with that too.

    I had the same issue after I re-installed both Mountain Lion and Adobe products. MOV (XDCAM) media was not reading on Premiere Pro CS6. "Codec Missing or Unavailable" kept prompting. Following ComputerNovice25 advice did not do the trick for this problem. But, I was able to fix issue by simply updating my OS. A ProApps Quicktime Codecs 1.0 was included in the update, which added the following video codecs for Quicktime-based applications:
    Apple Intermediate Codec
    Apple ProRes
    AVC-Intra
    DVCPRO HD
    HDV
    XDCAM HD / EX / HD422
    MPEG IMX
    Uncompressed 4:2:2
    This update is highly recommended for all users running any MacOSX and any type of NLE.
    Hope this helps.

  • Premiere CS5 not importing .mov files - codec missing or unavailable

    Hi,
    I'm on a Windows 7 PC running Premiere Pro CS5. Have encountered a problem with .mov files that I haven't had before. I recently received three files from a shoot at a local tv station. They are .mov files and I believe they are in an XD CAM wrapper or format. I've gotten files from this station before and have imported them with no trouble (not sure if the earlier files were XD CAM, though). When I try to import, I get the error message: Codec missing or unavailable. Would using the Prism video convertor to convert to another format be the way to go? The file sizes range from 7.18 GB to 14.9 GB. Thanks in advance.

  • Premiere CS4 - AVCHD - Codec missing or unavailable

    Recently received captured footage from a Panasonic HDV camcorder captured onto a Mac. I am using Production Premium with Premiere Pro CS4. When I attempt to import the .mov files, they are black screen with no audio either.
    I did a quick search on the net to see if CS4 supports AVCHD files and apparently it does. Seemingly also since it lists them as an available format when creating the project intially.
    When I attempt to import the files, I get the "Codec missing or unavailable" error. I also receive an error when I try to open the file to view it in QuickTime. I have the latest version of QuickTime and am running on a Vista 64 bit system currently.
    If CS4 lists the AVCHD format, should it also not support the files?
    Do I have to convert the files in some way?
    Is there a specific codec that may have not been installed when I installed the studio?
    Since the program itself is up to date, is there another codec from Adobe that is required?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance...
    Don

    Thanks for all the help thus far.
    I did install GSpot and tested a video sample from the captured file. The Codec was listed as "hdv4" and the Video as "<unknown>". It's 1280 X720 and identified as .MOV/QT.
    Listing the CODECs and other FILTERS gives me a list of "File Missing" items which all reference MainConcept(Adobe2) ... included below.
    We did (years ago) purchase Main Concepts product for video. I thought that became redundant once Adobe started including their decoders within the their products. That is why I initially believed that there was a problem with the installation of the Adobe Production Premium product.
    Do I need to upgrade or re-purchase the MainConcept product for this?
    Does this seem like a reinstall issue for Production Studio CS4?
    Recently, I am finding that I am ending up with more Mac based camcorder captures for editing. A lot of times these people have a consumer or low-end prosumer camcorder and a Mac laptop or whatnot and consider themselves "videographers". These people do not know how to capture in any other format than to  "plug it in and capture" and many times don't have any idea about CODECs  and formats. Many times, its the AVCHD format that has issues. I can either spend the money on a card (or whatever) reader and and attempt to capture it myself, or get my system updated to corrrectly read these (which I would prefer).
    I've used Mac systems since the first one came out in 1984 and stopped using them when work dictated a PC format and Premiere (Macs really were not Movie producing until they bought Final Cut from Macromedia anyhow, ... they were Printing and graphic based systems before that). I'm "fully fluent" in most all things Mac because we have a couple of recent Mac with OSX at the office for graphics (no Final Cut Pro), I just dont have home access to a Mac at this time.
    As far as the type of camcorder and format ... I was told it was a Panasonic .. I just (like always) received the captured footage ... from someone with a Mac.

  • "Codec Missing" message-Please read on!

    OK, I know that this topic has been posted and discussed to death. However, hopefully, this may help some of you having this problem.
    I had OSX 10.4.11 and QT 7.5 with FCP Studio 2 and FCP 6.0.5. I had a 28 minute video that I ran through MPEG StreamClip, exporting as QuickTime using Apple ProRes 422 HQ codec. I then edited it in FCP and saved it as a QT Self-Contained movie. I was able to reopen the project with no problems. So far so good. Then I "upgraded" to OSX 10.5.6 Leopard, as well as QT 7.6.2 for Leopard. Suddenly, now when I opened the FCP file I got the dreaded "Codec Not Found.." message. OMG!!! I tried everything: I trashed preferences for both FCP and QT, reinstalled both (several times), cursed a LOT, and had several other reactions which I won't mention here!
    The problem was that when I upgraded the OS and QuickTime, all of the Apple ProRes 422 codecs disappeared from the "Library/QuickTime Folder", thus the cursed message. Since I no longer had the previous version of QT (yeah, I deleted it) I couldn't check the codecs it had.
    Then I found a suggestion online that the solution was to insert the FCP install disk, go to the "Extras" folder and install "QmasterNode" (it evidently contains all of the codecs). I did that, then checked the Library/QT Folder again and found that all of the ProRes 422 codecs were now there. I then reopened the original FCP video file and guess what...it opened completely--no more message!!
    You might give this a try no matter what codec you used and is now "missing".
    Hope this helps.

    Same error here with different dvd and cd brands on disk utility and toast 8.

  • Codec Missing or Unavailable.

    PLEASE don't point me to another page elsewhere, as I think I've read everything on the internet on this. Please don't tell me to reinstall because 1 that's a ridiculous "solution" and 2 It's a work machine so I'd have to get them to do it and I need this finished TODAY
    I'm very late finishing a short film because my colleague sent me video taken from his camera that doesn't work on CS6. It's bog standard Quicktime *MOV that his Apple tells him is "MPEG-2 Video, Linear PCM, Timecode”. I'm running CS6 on a Dell XPS but every time I try to add the MOV clips I get "Codec Missing or Unavailable".
    I HAVE ALREADY deactivated and reactivated and spent last night updating to the latest everything but it's made no difference.
    In short, I have the CS6 video editor to which I and trying the complex task of adding a bit of video. I'm a tad miffed.

    What third-party codecs, if any, are installed on the computer?
    Can you upload a short sample clip?
    In the Export Settings dialog (CMD+M), are the MPEG formats listed--posting a screenshot of that dialog with the Format pulldown open (like the one below) could help.
