Premiere Pro CC 2014 fails to encode

Question

I have tried numerous times to Export>Encode but invariably dies part way through the encode. Can anyone please help me know what I am doing wrong, and/or how to fix the problem?

Answer 1

Sorry, folks...here are my answers:
What version of Premiere Pro? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Pro CS5.5 with the 5.5.2 update).CC 2014.1
Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.) Creative Cloud Constantly updating
What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac". Windows 8.1
What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container", not just "QuickTime". Mostly Panasonic footage .MTS/H.264 1920 x 1080 29.97 fps Progressive
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)? Encode failed [can't remember exact wording...very small error window/message]
What were you doing when the problem occurred? Trying to Encode with Adobe Media Encoder
Has this ever worked before? About 10%-15% success rate FIRST time, eventually up to 100%
What other software are you running? Mostly close down everything else, and set performance options (System Properties) to "Adjust for best performance"
Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed? No
Tell us about your computer hardware. Be especially certain to tell us about third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU).Windows 8.1 Pro, i7 Quad Core, 8gig RAM, nVidia Optimus, GEFORCE GT555M CUDA 208
Are you using Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration? Yes
Does the problem only happen with your final output, with previews, or both? Final output
I just get the "bleating sheep" and then "Quits"
Here it the AME Encoding Error Log: (BTW, it says "The Operation was interrupted by user", but I didn't do anything to interrupt it! It just QUIT!), and as for "Disk Full" I am attaching Screenshot of Disk Properties showing 247 GP Free.
