Quicktime and media encoder problem

I am trying to make a quicktime movie with Premiere CS4. The project is 870 still frames rendered from 3DS MAX. Everything works fine when I export and it sends the movie to Media Encoder's Queue. When I hit "Start Queue". the project starts to encode then quickly finishes with a green check mark next to the project, however no video is made. Please note I have tried other file formats such as AVI and it works fine. This seems to be am issue with QT. I have tried just about every QT codec as well and nothing seems to work. The codec I normally use is animation.
I have successfully done this many times in the past with no problems. Unfortunately, I recently had to replace my main harddrive which died that stored Windows XP, therefore I had to re-install Adobe Master Collection CS4. After the reinstall media encoder won't make Quicktime movies anymore. And yes I have QT installed. I had ver 7.6.2. I read somewhere that 7.5.5 works better with premiere CS4 so I found that, uninstalled 7.6.2, and installed 7.5.5, however, unfornuately it did not fix the problem. Anyone know how to fix this or having the same issues? Please see my specs below. Please let me know if you need more info. Thanks for help in advance.
Intel Quad processor
4 GIG Ram
Nvidia 8800 GTX video card
OS: Windows XP SP3
Adobe Premiere CS4
Media Encoder 4.1.0
Quicktime 7.5.5 (also tried 7.6.2 - the most recent)

There was someone having a similar problem on the www.weddingvideodoneright.com forums,and others were having various issues with ME not creating files and so I've copied this from that thread and hope it helps. Also, check out the Adobe link at the bottom-

Digging further, this is the "official" solution from adobe -
Quote
Do one or both of the following solutions:
Solution 1: Create a shortcut to the Premiere Pro executable file, rename the shortcut to Premiere, and move the shortcut to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink.
Close all Adobe applications.
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.)
Right-click on Adobe Premiere Pro.exe (which might appear without the .exe extension) and choose Create Shortcut.
Rename the newly created shortcut to just Premiere.
Important: The name of the shortcut must be exactly Premiere with no other characters.
Open a second Windows Explorer window, and navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink.
Move the Premiere shortcut that you created into the dynamiclink folder.
Solution 2: Remove and reinstall all Premiere Pro CS4 components or all Adobe Creative Suite 4 components.
Do one of the following:
Windows XP: Choose Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
Windows Vista: Choose Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features.
In the list of installed programs, select Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, Adobe Creative Suite 4 Production Premium, or Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection.
Click Change/Remove (Windows XP) or Uninstall (Windows Vista).
Follow the on-screen instructions to remove all components of Premiere Pro CS4 (including Adobe Encore CS4 and Adobe OnLocation CS4) or to remove all components of your edition of Adobe Creative Suite 4.
Re-install your Adobe software.

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 ****.

Problems installing Bridge and Media Encoder in CS6

I recently installed Creative Suite CS6 Design & Web Premium. I had previously installed the CS5 version and had not un-installed it. Everything except Acrobat appeared to install correctly. When I opened Photoshop CS6 (64-bit) I noticed that it used the CS5 version Bridge. I went into Bridge and unchecked the open at start box, closed Bridge and Photoshop and re-opened Photoshop CS6 (64-bit). When I tried to lunch Bridge from Photoshop the following message appeared in the Desktop> panel : Waiting for Bridge CS6..." Bridge CS6 did not appear despite waiting for several minutes. I then pressed the Start button and went into the Programs listing. Under the Adobe CS6 group I found all of the applications (other than Acrobat) but Bridge CS6 (64-bit), Bridge CS6, and Media Encoder each had generic icons rather than the expected relevant Adobe icons. I tried to load each of the three by clicking on the icon. In each instance the following message appeared:
The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program and then contact the software publisher.
My system is a Gateway FX6802. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium version 6.1.7601, Service Pack 1, Build 7601. The system has 9 GB of memory. I ran CS5 on the system and did not experience any difficulty with Bridge.

Thanks. Being the impatient sort (inspite of the problems that can create) I only did a partial uninstall with the cleaner tool, taking out the three items that were not working. Initially that seemed not to work. As I had other non-Adobe projects to take care of I put it out of mind. I even let an updatee package do its wonders. Today I used Photoshop for a quick project. I clicked on the Launch Bridge button and lo and behold the proper icon showed up and Bridge loaded. After finishing my project I closed down Photoshop and Bridge and then went through updating once more. The other problem I was having was with Acrobat. I finally traced the problem to a bad installation of Acrobat 9 at the CS4 level. (Shows you how much I use Acrobat.) I used the cleaner tool to clean up the remnants of CS4. After that Acrobat X installed quite nicely. At this point everything seems to be working as it should. Thanks for your help.

Premiere Pro CS6 and Media Encoder CS6 Color shift on export

Hello,
I am working on an early 2008 Mac Pro with 2 X 3.2 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon Processors 32 GB of RAM a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB Graphics Card and I am running OS X 10.8.2.
I have the updated Version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and Media Encoder CS6 through the awesome Subscription program that Adobe has started.
My footage is shot with the Canon 1D Mark IV shot 1920X1080 at 24 FPS
I am importing the camera files and then exporting them after I cut them up in to Quicktime Pro Res 422 HQ files
With the technical explination out of the way here is my problem. I have color right from the camera files that I like. and with out doing any thing to change the color I export the footage and get a dramatic color shift. The exported file looks desaturated and slightly green.
I have tried using Media Encoder CS6 to export my footage and that has the same result.
I started my career as a photographic retoucher and use photoshop and light room constantly so I am pretty confident that i know color. I also calibrate my Lacie 526 and Lacie 324i montiors monthly as well as have a sensor that will slightly shift the profile depending on the time of day.
I have attached three screen shots that show the color shift exactly. Now what I need is a solution. What I am not seeing is color settings for Premiere. I am totally open to any suggestions on what I might be doing incorrectly.

I've been doing this for a few years now, and have come to some conclusions. Basically, the difference between still photography and video is like the difference between playing the trumpet and the sax. What you bring to the sax from playing trumpet is your ability to read music, what you know about composition, blending while playint with others, ect. But playing trumpet tells you nothing about how to physically play a sax. So it is with still photography and video.
For starters, your carefully calibrated computer monitor is just that, a computer monitor. It doesn't display the correct working space for video. What you need for WYSIWYG in video is a monitor that can show you the Rec.709 working space. Rec.709 has a different gamut, a different gamma, probably a different white point (D65), different phosphor colors, etc., etc., etc. Enought differences that it's difficult to make a computer monitor that can successfully display Rec.709. Yet there are a couple of computer monitors that can do this (a few Eizos, one HP). The vast majority of people doing serious color correction work in video use a production monitor for just this reason.
But a production monitor isn't enough. You also have to make sure that the signals you're sending the production monitor are correct. There's a sub-industry making signal converters for signals from NLE video cards (usually RGB based) -> signals for production monitors (usually YUV based).
That said, it is certainly possible to get a very good match between your NLE suite and a DVD / BD as displayed on an HDTV. But it's not as simple or easy as a calibrtated computer monitor for still photography use.
This is probably part of your problem. But Quicktime is probably the root of it. Quicktime is, well, I guess the polite way of saying it is that Quicktime is problematic. It gives all kinds of problems. Most people have abandoned it. You should too.

Premiere Pro and Media Encoder crash while rendering H.264

Very recently, a problem's popped up where Premiere Pro and Media Encoder (CC) will crash while rendering H.264.
It's only while rendering H.264 - other formats seem to work fine.
And I don't mean that it returns an error, I mean it hard crashes with a Windows "Adobe Premiere Pro CC has stopped working" popup.
It doesn't crash at a consistent time during the render, even on the same project. Occasionally, it won't crash at all, but this is usually not the case.
I've tried disabling CUDA and my overclock to no avail. Please help!

On the topic of opening a project on the exact same version of Premiere Pro CC 2014 (yes it is definitely up to date, and the 2014 version), to overcome this export crash problem that ZachHinchy has brought up - you can't. Technically speaking, one should easily be able to open a Premiere Pro CC 2014 project from one system on another system running the exact same up to date, legitimate version of Premiere Pro CC 2014 without any kind of error. But for some reason, this has been disallowed(?) by Adobe. It has facepalm written all over it. Does anyone agree that this is at least a little bit silly?
I have tried exporting a Final Cut Pro XML from my project to try and open the sequence at uni on a Mac, so I can render my project when I finish my edit. It half works - the clips are there, but the sequence is gone - i.e. 12 hours of painstaking sequencing and micro-edits that had me at several points in time wanting to insert my hand through my monitor with enough force to make a large hole. I really cannot afford redo this sequence, as my assignment is due tomorrow, and I have to work at 6 oclock in the morning, so I also cannot afford to stay up till the early hours of tomorrow morning. Wish me luck that some miraculous event has taken place overnight that will somehow allow me to just open my project, on the same version of Premiere, on a Mac, without hassle. (Apple OS is not friendly to anything but its own selfish nature, so I am having doubts).
Adobe please, if you can do anything at all to help, you will save my assignment, and my faith will be restored. Otherwise, I'll just get my money back and buy Final Cut instead.
I cant even
If I find a way to fix either of these problems, I will post straight away.

Premiere and Media Encoder - h264 corrupted encode

Hello all
I'm writing here since I simply cannot find a solution to my problem, recently out of a sudden my adobe premiere and Media encoder have been giving me corrupt h264 encodes, the files apparently encode but adobe does not put them in a container. The .m4v file is unplayable and the same goes for the audio file; here is a sample from MediaInfo:
No matter what sequence or project I try to encode with h264 this happens while I can encode to any other extension/codec with no problems. While using the same project file and the same source files on another computer the encodes finishes without a problem. Even a simple timelapse with just JPEG pictures on the timeline results in this problem. I have no idea what to do but I simply cannot encode with anything else so any help is appreciated (P.S. the 4k resolution here is a timelapse, most encodes I try to do are 1080p @ 25fps, since most people bump at this resolution 1st)
I'm running Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 (6.0.5) updated to the latest on Windows 7 64bit.

Premier Pro CC and Media Encoder crashing on long file export.

Please forgive the length of this inquiry. But it is complicated and has a lot of variables.
I have an hour long mixed format timeline both Red 3K footage and Black Magic ProRes 1080P footage that I want to make a DVD from and it takes forever and crashes half way through. I have tried doing it every way possible and the only way I was able to get even a partial export was using the "MPEG 2 DVD" export option in Premier CC. It goes fast at first telling me it will take about 2 hours but even though it starts quickly doing about 15 fps it slows down to less than 1 fps and finally just stops and crashes my Cuda Core enabled Macbook Pro Laptop.
I really don't know who to ask about this since there are so many different variables. I never had a problem like this on my MBP with PP6 on a 4K timeline exporting to DVD or Blue Ray or to H-264 or Even Prores. But I wasn't mixing formats either. But on this project the first 20-30 minutes of footage goes through fine in a couple of hours but something seems to be bogging down the system on longer projects. My work around was to break the project up into multiple exports and combining them on the DVD timeline but I can't do this on every project. I thought maybe it was a corrupted clip somewhere in the timeline but when I broke the timeline up into several parts I had no problems.
I did notice a dramatic variance in the time it took to export footage based on the sequence settings. A one minute timeline comprised Red 3K footage and ProRes 1080P footage Here are some sample export results:
From a Red raw 3K timeline 2880x1620 with 1080P Prores footage upscaled 150%)
to .m2v Mpeg 2 720x480 format    1:48 Minutes ***
to .mov Prores 422HQ 1080P                         22 Minutes
to .mov H.264 1080P                    22 Minutes
to .m2v Mpeg 2 1080P                                                22 Minutes
From a 1080P timeline Prores footage at 100% (Red footage downscaled to 67%)
to .m2v Mpeg 2 720x480 format                         13 Minutes
to .mov Prores 422HQ 1080P                             13 Minutes
to .mov H.264 1080P                                                             14 Minutes
to .m2v Mpeg 2 1080P                                                            14 Minutes
Since I am going to DVD, I chose the fastest option Red to m2v Mpeg 2 720x480 format which only took 1:48 per minute. Why? I have no idea. Maybe someone here knows the answer. But again these numbers are for a ONE MINUTE clip when I tried to convert the whole hour timeline to the 720x480.m2v DVD File the Red timeline froze my computer after several hours even though I had set sleep mode to “Never” and turned the display off manually and I had to convert it in multiple chunks. In 20-30 minute chunks it did go fast about 1:48 per minute like the test indicated. But I would like to be able to convert the whole hour and not to have to try to stitch the clips together in my DVD authoring program.
I don’t want to have to avoid using multiple formats on the same timeline or waste time transcoding everything to the same format.
Can anyone give me any suggestions as to why the computer is crashing or bogging down in long exports and what timeline settings I should be using?
I have plenty of room on my Scratch Disk and 8 Gig of RAM and according to my Activity Monitor during the export process have about 800 Meg of System Memory during export but the CPU Usage is 98% and in my Activity Monitor I see under “Process Name” ImporterRedServer flashing up at the top of the list about every second during export.
Why .720x480 mpeg DVD setting is so much faster than all the other export codecs?
And if there are any other settings I can use to get higher speed exports in HD? 14x1 seems a little slow especially since every time it crashes I have to start over.

Hi,
Since a long time I did not encounter the crash of Media encoder with
long file export.
But I take care of a lot of details before the export :
- clean up Media cache and Media Cache Files within PP CS6 and/or CC,
- delete all render files with Preview Files,
- rendering of sequences until the rendering is completed,
- PP CS6 and/or Pp CC opened during export to AME and/or Encore CS6,
I guessed to leave Adobe but this company remains the last with a
serious authoring software (Encore CS 6).
I tested :
- Avid Media Composer, Final Cut Pro X, both are very good software but
no really authoring software for these video editing softs.
Th only way is to "flood" Adobe with "bug reports" and "wish forms"
which are not very easy to use.
And also to call the Adobe support day by day until they send they
escalate the bug.

Premire Pro CC 2014 and Media Encoder Crash During Launch

Premire Pro and Media Encoder crash during startup and are unusable. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate and already tried reinstalling Adobe Creative Cloud from scratch and it's still happening. I also tried following Adobes KB articles directions to rename the Adobe folder in my documents and appdata to no avail. When I try to launch either application, I get a generic windows crash message "Adobe Premire Pro CC 2014.0 has stopped working" and when I click problem details, it lists this:

I am having a similar problem.
Premiere Pro CC 2014 suddenly decided to crash every time I export to either Adobe Media Encoder or within Premiere itself.
The encode will usually go for 5-10 minutes before the programs either spits out a "serious error has occurred" window, or it just sits there frozen until I force quit.
I did find a work-around for the moment. If I open AME and FILE > OPEN, select my project and then the sequence I want, AND put it in Software render mode, it will work.
My timeline is 2K, 58 minutes in 23.976
Only effects applied are Lumetri LUTs - no third party.
I've exported as recently as a week ago without issue.
Running OSX 9.5 on an X99 board
3.75 GHz 8-core
64GB 2400 MHz RAM
EVGA Titan Black 6GB
Because I can get my renders out, I am not too concerned. Either there is something wonky with my timeline that screws with any graphics enabled rendering, or there is a bug that is have the same effect. I will try rendering on another of my edit bays that utilizes a GTX 580 that I KNOW works. The Titan is pretty new to my workflow.
Thanks Adobe, for checking this out.

Premiere and Media Encoder will will no longer export my edit to any file format.

This is on a Windows 8.1 PC.
The edit exported fine until I made one big mistake.
I created a Nested Edit to make a quick alteration.
Since then the following is now the case and I cannot go back to an earlier edit to fix this.
Premiere and Media Encoder will will no longer export my edit to any file format. Using either the Export Option or Media Encoder. Get a dialog that says "Unknown Error Compiling Movie"
There is nothing wrong with my footage. This edit worked fine and I export through Media Encoder many times until I made a Nested Edit within the Premiere Project.
I have tried all sorts of searches on the net for a fix to this but nothing seems to be current or indeed works.
Any help would be appreciated as this is a show stopper.

Thanks for the reply Mark, appreciated.
I have found a work around but it still leaves a long term issue for Adobe to fix.
As to your first solution:
1). The nested edit is already in its own timeline panel. It will not export or encode via media encoder. This is the problem.
2). I will try the KEM roll feature but I have a work around see following.
3). No I do not have a nested edit within a nested edit.
I did a lot of research on the net on this issue as it happened to a colleague of mine on his machine about two weeks ago. It took me six hours to get a fix and in his case there were six video clip that had read errors. When I overwrote those clips from the original backup master it fixed the problem. However I was never able to use Media Encoder again to export his project without it failing. I could only use the Export feature. Again he had used a nested edit in his project.
I my case I do not have any nested edits within a nested edit. All I did was drag my main edit onto the New Sequence icon at the bottom of the Project Bin. This of course created a nested edit in a new Timeline Panel which is what I wanted. I then slid the entire nested edit to the right in the timeline by two seconds as all a wanted to do was add two seconds of black at the head of the edit. That was it. From that point of creating the nested edit Media Encoder and the Export option failed every time with the fore mentioned error.
The final work around was one of those I found previous mention of during my research. I created a new clean Premiere Pro CC 2014 project, I then used the import option under the file menu. I imported only the original main edit which brought in that edit along with all the required footage. This would then export to disk using the Export feature. However, Media Encoder will still not encode this new edit, it fails the same way every time, 'Unknown Error Compiling Movie'.
As a test I loaded the old corrupt edit project back up and deleted the nested edit sequence completely and re-saved it. This had no effect and did not fix the problem. This particular project file will no longer export directly or via media encoder at all no matter what I do.
This seems pretty serious to me. I worked on this edit for a whole month without issue, encoding out roughs as a went without any issue, it was only yesterday after I made the nested edit that the project file is now useless as it will not encode out at all. Yes I have a work around and was able to salvage my project and get it rendered in time for my deadline but the fact I have a partially working Project that Media Encoder will not touch does not instill me with confidence for long term use of Premiere Pro if this is going to happen again.
Is there some place I can send this project file to Adobe to see if they can find out what is wrong with it? I am not the only person having this issue I have seen other post going all the way back through CS6 it seems.

Adobe Media Encoder Problems

I am having a problem with project settings when I use acvhd files. I add the .m2ts files and select Matrox AVI 1440X1080 and all I ever get is a 720X486. I do not know whats going on. I am trying to get the file into the matrox AVI so it will playback on the Premiere Pro CS4 timeline without the impossible to edit choppy playback.
When I click the settings button I get another screen with a video window, The input shows the original 1920X1080 but the output shows 720X486, there is now ay to change it.
Working with a quad core 2.8 Ghz, 8 gb ram, Video Card is a nvidia 9500GT with 1 Mg ram. The system is robust enough for the software but Premiere cannot handle HD quality.
May be a good time to switch to Apple with FCP. Maybe the money I spend there won't be as much as it's cost me dealing with PC's.

I bought a camera that shoots in AVCHD 1920X1080 resolution. That camera costs $1100.00 and the quality blows away the $6500 cameras quality, I own both. I can import the .m2ts files yet they don't playback from the time line. Yet the software that came with the camera plays back at full screen full HD quality without any problems. I gotta say it's an Adobe issue. Because I installed Premiere CS4 and Media Encoder on a non Matrox system. No way does it work with HD.
Maybe I'll just stick to using my SD cameras because the editing software has not caught up with the rest of us.

Using Premiere CC and Media Encoder CC at the same time

Is this possible? Doesn't seem to be. Media Encoder bails on every job as soon as you try to render anything in Premiere. I guess they don't play nice together, which is surprising. I was hoping that Media Encoder would pause and wait for Premiere to finish a render. Instead it dies on every render job, creating 0 size video files... while making a sheep bleating sound.
Is this a GPU issue? I have 2 nVidia cards, a 770GTX and 560GTX. (Windows 8.1, 16gb RAM, 3770k CPU)

As soon as I initiate a render in Premiere, Media Encoder bleats, and all subsequent render jobs bleat and produce 0 size video output files... even if I quit the Premiere render before Media Encoder reaches some of those render jobs.
I suspect this is a GPU sharing issue.... but can't be certain.
What do you mean by new install? Did I install it (AME or Premiere) recently? No. I've had Creative Cloud on my machine for almost a year, and both Premiere and Media Encoder have been updated periodically.
To my knowledge they have never worked together, but I only started using the queue feature within Premiere recently, so I haven't used AME until recently.

Upgraded to CC 2014 and Media Encoder doesn't work now.

Using a mac with mavericks, all updated. Upgraded to Premiere Pro CC 2014 and Media Encoder CC 2014. But when I want to launch it... it won't open.
Help?

Latest Premiere and Media encoder CC update shuts down

Latest Premiere and Media encoder CC update shuts down when you load saved file or try to export to media encoder.
I tried restarting after update, next is to revert to previous version.

Every time I've try to export from Premiere Media Encoder gives me this error message that says: Installation error - please ensure this product have been installed properly.
I can't find a way to only reinstall media encoder from CC
It was working fine before the last Premeire update.

Adobe Premiere and Media Encoder crash on Export

Hi
I Run Premiere CC and media encoder on a 2011 27in iMac with 12GB RAM. Until recently everything exported fine. But now when I either do an export from within Premiere or queue via Media Encoder it crashes halfway through. I've tried reinstalling both to no avail. Any idea to why this could be happening and how can I fix it? I'm running Yosemite.
Cheers
