Mpeg encoding in premiere pro

Is it possible to create a mpeg-2 file from a video after being processed with Premiere Pro CS3 ????
In Export -> Movie -> Settings I don't find the option to export to this format. Does it depends on the codecs installed on the computer or Premiere provides its own mpeg-2 encoder ???
Is it possible to perform the previous functions with the legacy Adobe Premiere 6.0 version ???
Thank you in advance.

Yes, it can be tough, when older versions come into play. Luckily, John T. has a pretty good memory and a knowledge of the earlier versions, so we, with poor memories, or zero recollection of them, trot him out to help us.
What gets very confusing is the PrPro 1.0/Pr 7.0/PrPro 7.0 issues, where things were in transition with new code. After weeks of effort, we then find that the poster meant PrElements 7.0. That's where most of my hair has gone.
Heck, I have to fire up PrPro 2.0 to see just how things are done.

How on earth do you export to MPEG-2DVD in Premiere Pro & or Media Encoder?

I'm having the same continuing problem in Premiere Pro CS5.5. I cannot export a sequence out as a MPEG-2dvd in Premiere Pro, nor as a MPEG-2dvd in the media encoder. I even tried to encode the file as an AVI file, and then take the AVI file and convert it to a MPEG-2dvd in media encoder. No dice. The file I'm trying to do all of this with is a 26minute sequence on the premiere timeline, so it's no space and data hog. It's originally an MPEG-1 file. I keep getting the error code that both Adobe premiere, and adobe media encoder can not read m2v.xmpses files. I already understand that these have broken into seperate files, with the m2v in there as the video, the audio file representing the audio, and the xmpses containing the metadata, but these files are not seperate in my experience with this problem. the m2v.xmpses is one file, and it can not be seperated. Ive been told that these files are seperated streams that need to be "muxed" together into one workable file. How do you do this?
Thanks in advance to anyone who attempts to tackle these problems.

If working with NTSC, then your Sequence should be DV 720x480, so as to match what the DVD will be.
Not to split hairs Jeff (nor to distract from the purposes of the OP), but you don't always want to match sequence settings to output, and the OP may not actually want to do this either - especially when working with lower quality assets and not knowing how many different ways the edit will be used.
Adobe's mantra with Premiere Pro is "edit once, publish many" and so let's consider a hypothetical scenario where you are creating a sequence to be distributed to web and DVD. If your assets are 1280x720 60p and you put them in a DV 720x480 (4:3 0.9 PAR 29.97) sequence to match an intended DVD output, then you are "stuck" if/when you decide to render out an H.264 720p sequence for Vimeo. You have to re-build your sequence at that point.
99% of the time, you want to create a sequence that matches your asset parameters, or that at least matches the majority of the assets. Then you are editing with the "raw" format and ready to up-res/down-res without creating multiple sequences with separate edits. This becomes even more imperative when and if a re-edit comes down and you find yourself having to execute identical edits across 2 or 3 or 4 different sequences.
Just wanted to clarify that point. That's also part of the reason why PPro allows you to create a new sequence based on an asset's parameters by drag-and-drop.

MPEG Encoder von Premiere 6.5 geht nicht

Der MPEG Encoder von Premiere 6.5 liefert zwei Dateien. Bild und Ton. Die Bilddatei enthält keine Bilder, d.h. beim Abspielen bleibt der Bildschirm schwarz. Das Tolle, es hat schon mal funktioniert. Das Betriebssystem W2000 wurde zwischen diesen Zuständen nicht geändert, ein anderes Programm wurde auch nicht aufgespielt. Ein Update von mainconcept wurde auch erfolglos durchgeführt.

Hallo zusammen,
wieso verwendet Ihr den (nicht gerade berauschenden) mainconcept encoder in Prem 6.5 ???
Zwar aufwändiger, aber qaulitativ eindeutig besser ist die Vorgehendsweise:
1. von der Timeline ein AVI exportieren
2. dieses z. B. mit dem TMPGenc hochqualitativ in ein mpeg-2 wandeln.

Slow Encoding in Premiere Pro CS5

Hey there,
I'm working with Adobe Media Encoder 5.0.1 (CS5), and I've found that it encodes very slowly (taking hours to encode 15 minutes of very simple video cuts). Looking over my system's performance, my hard drive isn't impacted at all (it has a dedicated hard drive for video production), and my memory still has 4GB free (20 GB in use). The only resource I'm hurting on is CPU (it's using 100% of my quad-core i7-4820K with hyperthreading turned on). From what I understand, I can't use NVIDIA CUDA to encode.
I suspect that my preset settings are the problem. The original format is MPEG-2 (NLE) at 29.97 FPS. I'm encoding to H.264 (HDTV 720p 29.97 FPS). Render at maximum depth is turned on and frame blending is turned off (let me know if there's a better way to preserve the original quality of the video). It's just the present, and no other alterations. Should I be using any other encoding before importing it into Premiere Pro? Should I use another present when exporting?
Thanks for your time,
Gareth
PS: What is the lowest version of Premiere Pro that uses CUDA for encoding? Thanks!

Exporting to Media Encoder crashes Premiere Pro CC 2014

Greetings,
I am experiencing a problem with premiere off and on. Right now it is an on problem. When I am exporting from Premiere Pro CC (and CC 2014) it will intermittently crash Premiere. I have tried this with several different audio and video formats (AVI [Lagarith and uncompressed], WAV, H.264, MPG2, AAC, etc). At the moment, every time I go to export to queue it locks up and hangs on the "Preparing data for export..." Media Encoder Launches and then it just freezes. I get "Problem Even Name: AppHangB1" over and over. Sometimes a full restart will fix this temporarily and sometimes it goes away for a long while. I managed to get a few sequences exported and then it just kept freezing on every PP CC restart.
Here are my system specs:
Premiere Pro CC (up to date)
Win 7 64bit (up to date)
i7 970
24GB Ram
NVIDIA 470GTX (driver up to date)
3 x 1.5TB internal
4TB internal
3TB internal
12TB RAID 5 via USB 3.0
USB 2.0 and 3.0 drives
FireWire audio device (M-AUDIO FireWire1814)... although, I am not using it for playback. It is connected.
Footage is from C100 H.264 .MTS, H.264.mov from 7D, and H.264 .MOV from iPhone.
All stock video plugins with a few third party audio plugs.
This problem happens with and without third party plugs, but it happens that this project uses them.
I have chatted with Adobe help twice about the matter and nothing has come of it. Log out, log in = same. Restart = same (sometimes), create new user account = same, and so on. The only thing I haven't done is completely re-install premiere, which seems a bit overkill. One of the reps said he would get back to me in a few days after he watched the issue via screen share. Never heard back.
I get the sense that this has something to do with PProHeadless.exe not launching or not running properly. When the crash happens on a fresh restart of PP CC 2014 PProHeadless is not running. I can start PProHeadless and it will send sequence to media encoder. When I try to export another sequence from the same project it crashes and I see another instance of PProHeadless launched.
Also, once the projects are exported to Media Encoder, I can encode them to any format with no problem. The problem is getting the sequences there!
Is there anything that I am overlooking here?
Thanks for the help!

Hi
Premiere pro cc 2014 8.0.1 (21) build
Encoder CC 2014 8.0.1.48
I use CC for Teams so it updates all the time.
Again when I tried to use it today by letting premiere open it by sending an output into Queue it crashed both Encoder and Premiere.
In order to shut down Encoder and Premiere I had to go into Task Manager and "End Process Tree" on everything adobe I could find because just ending Encoder did not work it would not close. I remembered that years ago when Premiere would crash we had to end a photoshop process. I found photoshop open even though it was not "alive" on my task bar. I had used it yesterday but had closed it. I also had to close dynamiclinkmanager.exe *32 as well as one of the three Adobe CDF Helper.exe*32. They popped back on but Encode closed and then I got a message that Premiere needed to close and did when I clicked the button to let it close.
After all this I re-opened Encoder by itself and checked the Preferences finding that Import Sequences Natively option was again checked.
By the way for me, "Launch AME manually, then drag the sequence from PPro's Project panel to AME's Queue (or to a preset in the Preset Browser). That uses a different code path than the File>Export>Media workflow." won't work most of the time because I do live events of panel interviews that may run 2 or more hours. I need to break them down to chapters for the web
Also I know this isn't part of this problem but I and many others would still love dynamiclink to work to Encore because the DVD is not dead yet. The current work path is a drag.
Looks like some programers and engineers have some work to do.
Thanks

Adobe Media Encoder for Premiere Pro CS4 stops working on the same frame every time...

I currently have Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 and have never had these issues exporting before. My timeline is less than 3 minutes long, but it does deal with multiple big files. It rendered perfectly and it plays perfectly in the timeline. When I try to export it using Media Encoder, however, it freezes at the same frame every time (which is actually only a few seconds in!) and then crashes, so that I have to force quit. I have tried exporting it as many different codecs and the problem persists... same frame. I tried creating a new project entirely and whipping together a few titles and exporting that to see if it just won't export anything at all. The new project exported just fine, however, which I suppose is good news. But yeah, my work on that other project is very important to me and I reallllly want to export it. Please help!

Hi Jim! Thank you for your reply. I think you are right -- and that it lies in the audio somehow!
It turns out that if I choose to only export the video, and uncheck audio, it will export very well and smoothly. That's great news for me!
However, now I am trying to work out how to get the audio exported without issues. I actually had the idea of just playing the audio in the timeline and recording it via Stereo Mix, but my Windows 7 driver has Stereo Mix disabled, so it's back to square one. Any ideas of what I can do about the corrupted audio not exporting, which works fine when played in the timeline?

Using new Adove Media Encoder with Premiere pro cs4

I have Premiere Pro Cs4 and Design&Web premium CS6 - which comes with Adobe Media Encoder cs6. Can I get Premiere Pro CS4 to use the new encoder (and hopefully speed up)?

I am on Window 7 32-bit that Premiere CS6 does not work. So I use CS4 for editing. For one specific project, I kept getting errors when using AME CS4 and it was extremely slow (8min of video estimated 20 hours). Someone said CS4 4.2 is really slow so I'd like to use AME CS6 to render project files from CS4. Tried that but got adobe dynamic link components error. I think it may be because I didn't include Premiere and After Effects when installing CS6.
Do you have success using AME CS6 on CS4 project file? Is it likely to make it work without installing CS6 one more time?
Thanks,

Can you define 'glitch'? Or better yet, show us?
Do these glitches exist in the PP sequence, or only after export?
How exactly are you viewing the exported videos?

When importing MPEG files into Premiere Pro CS3 the audio sequence is missing.

We have two computers running Premiere Pro CS3. Our computer most recently installed with PPCS3 will only import an audio sequence with the MPEG video file when I extract the file directly from the DVD. When I take the video folder from the DVD and drag to my Desktop, importing to PP from the desktop, it will only import the video sequence; audio does not appear. What would cause this happen and how can I fix this? It's too time consuming to continuously use my DVD Extractor.

Strips in files when encoding in Premiere Pro CS5 to Mediaencoder

Hello,
since a short time I moved to Creative Premium Pro CS5. Unfortunatelly I have several issues when rendering jobs. In CS 4 32 Bit export via Mediaencoder worked fine. Now when I use the same Peoject from CS4, load it into CS5 Premiere Pro and export the sequenz to a an AVI or .mpg file (does not depends on what kind of export file), I have color strips vertically in the ranges of dissolves, left and right in the picture. This disturbs when playing the file on a PC-Mediaplayer. When I check the highest render quality in the media encoder, then the strips are away. Is that a bug in CS5?
Thanks for any answer.

Need MPEG Encoder for Premiere 6.5

Re-installed Premiere 6.5 on new hard drive, but don't have a copy of Main Concepts MPEG Encoder plug-in. I believe the latest was version 1.2? The Premiere installation CD comes with version 1.1. Can't find a copy of the updated encoder anywhere, anyone have a copy to share? Thanks.

Welcome to the forum.
I would have thought that the installation of Pr 6.5 would have also installed the MainConcept MPEG CODEC. Was this normally an additional install?
It seems that John T. Smith, or Ann Bens, had some links to later versions of the MainConcept CODEC. First, I'd do a Search of this forum and filter it by each of those poster's names. There might be links in some of those articles. Second, I'd look at a Repair Install, in hopes that the MainConcept CODEC did install properly.
Sorry that I cannot be more help, but do not have Pr 6.5.
Good luck,
Hunt

MPEG encoder in Premiere 6.5

Ich hatte bisher keine Probleme mit dem MPEG-Encoder.
Jetzt habe ich ein Project mit zwei Video-Spuren für Titel benutzt. Das Project sieht in der Vorschau einwandfrei aus. Als DV-Project (FAST-dif) ist es auch einwandfrei.
Als MPEG-2 exportiert sind aber fast alle Titel "verschwunden".
Interssant: In der Vorschau sind sie immer noch da, im Titel-Editor sind sie leer, d.h. die Texte sind zwar vorhanden, aber da die horizontale Ausdehnung der Textblöcke überall auf "Null" geschrumpft ist. ist nichts mehr zu sehen. Im Editor kann man die Blöcke dann wieder "ausdehnen". Dann ist alles wieder da: Texte und Text-Stile (Schatten etc.).
Hat jemand eine Idee, was da falsch läuft????

MPEG-4 Encoding using Premiere Pro 2.0 ?

Is Premier Pro 2.0 capable of encoding to MPEG-4, or do I need to upgrade to CS-4? In Premier Pro 2.0 in the Media encoder all I see is MPEG 1 and MPEG 2, Flash, Quick time, etc. The manual mentions MPEG-4 but does not say how to access it.

Hi Jim,
Thanks for your reply. Do you know if Premier CS4 has MPEG-4 capabilities.
I have Production Studio. What about After Effects does it have MPEG-4?
Thanks for your help.

Any one can help me to explain about this MPEG file format compatibility?
Thank you very much.

Hello Mark,
Yes, I think maybe the variable GOP is the problem.
I have tried test some clips, and all the variable GOP can't drag into the timeline.
The clips are ftp-out from our broadcast system storage (Harris) formerly known as Leitch. i think they put some encryption or somethink to make their product proprietary.
i can play the clips in the windows media player classic.
I'll try PPPRO CC and see what happen
Thank you very much for your advice.
