Sizes In Adobe Media Encoder...

I make a PAL movie in Premiere Pro CS3 with clips from my Panasonic GS500 camera. Export to Adobe Media Encoder CS3 and it gives an output frame size (for FLV) of 1024 x 576.
I open the same sequence in Premiere Pro CS4 and Export to Adobe Media Encoder CS4 and the frame size becomes 1050 x 576.
Why the two different width sizes? I have not done any resizing or cropping.
If I do resize the video by half, so that 576 becomes 288 (keeping the proportion link checked) the size becomes 512 x 288. 512 is not half of 1050.
Also, why is there no Deinterlace button, as there was on CS3. Do we assume that the video is being deinterlaced by default? Or, as some others have complained when exporting to DVD, is the exported video remaining interlaced? This might account for why I cannot get the same FLV picture quality, using exactly the same settings, as I did with CS3.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Spok.

HI Colin,
well, i used to be very happy with SorensonSqueeze, but for more than a year now, I'm just using Compressor (indeed from FCStudio).
It's VERY handy and lets you manage your settings in a way AME can't even think of in version 8... I mean nothing extraordinary, just the way it should, with possibility to move, edit, group, duplicate, rename, describe your settings...
And as for flv encoding (at the time of CS3, which I still have on my desktop machine) by installing the Suite, it would also install the codec for Compressor.. Excellent! Which CS4 doesn't do anymore... which forces us to use this terrible AME.. That's the scandale to my humble opinion!
But ok, via Compressor, you get the settings for flv... with the deinterlace box as on the attached image. Indeed with VP6 encoder.
And no, me neither, i'm not torn up, but it would have been nice Adobe gave us the info!
Compressor does also a great job in slomo. That's quite new but impressive. And Compressor is MUCH faster than AME.. AME takes ages! For a good result, I agree.
voila...

Maximum file size with Adobe Media Encoder?

I seem to be having a problem when converting files in AME.
I'm converting .m2v files into quicktimes files, using the DVCPRO HD 1080i50 codec. No sound is being exported with the audio.
Dimensions are 1440 x 1080, frame rate, field type and aspect are locked at 25, Upper First and HD Anamorphic 1080 (1.333) respectivly.
I've encoded about eleven other files of the same type without fail, however this certain file is at 1.7gig compared, where as every other file I wanted to encode is under 1gig.
I'm using an Asus N53SV with 16gig of ram, so I'm sure my laptop can handle whatever is thrown at it. I'm using a 64bit operating system on Windows 7 home premium Service pack one.
Processor: Intel Core i7 - 2630QM CPU @ 2.00Ghz
RAM Memory: 16gig
Graphics card: Nvidia Geforce FT 540M
Progam: Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 ver. 5.5.1.12
The error log reads:

- Output File: G:\Digital Postcard\To convert\Untitled-6_2.mov
- Preset Used: Custom

04/19/2012 03:19:30 AM : Encoding Failed
File size that I want to encode is 1.7gig
I'm assuming either the file is corrupt or I don't have sufficient specs to handle the large file.
Any help will be great,
Thanks.

There are no file size limits to the software beyond what would be imposed by the operating system itself and the file format of the drive.
So...assuming you have enough drive space, something else is going on.

After Effects + Adobe Media Encoder + Flash = Most Random File Sizes Ever

Asking this question in this AE forum because I think more would have knowledge on the topic here than the Flash Forum.
I've heard that video compression is more of an art than a science... Could someone provide me some insight on the following?
-Created a 12 second, 30 FPS, 300x250 banner animation inside of After Effects
-Exported for FLV/Flash to be placed inside of a 300x250 .FLA
-Comps rendered directly from Adobe Media Encoder standalone instead of Render Queue in AE (for 2 pass .FLV's, and heard from various that .FLV's from render queue are not the prettiest at times).
I've always been under the impression that I would get smaller file sizes with SWF's externally linking to an FLV. If I do it this way, I end up with:
41 KB .SWF + 668 KB .FLV = 709 KB
However, if I EMBED the same 668 KB .FLV to the FLA's timeline (not using the flvPlayback component) I end up with a 381 KB file size!
I am just confused on the logic here, could someone explain the reasons for this? I always thought my file size would be bigger if it was embedded to the timeline.

Actually I think it's the tons of extra AS code that make linked players fatter. Never could make sense of the why and how myself, but you can find enough alternate free players/ skins (nonverblaster for instance, which I use) that are a lot leaner.

Adobe Media Encoder Export like source size

Hey,
i´m trying to set up a custom export setting based upon HD BlueRay Mpeg setting.
My source is a custom size (1400 x 1050 px), but i am not able to change to "size as source".
Any Ideas how to change that?
THX
MArco

Marco,
You can use AME to encode a 1400x1050 M2V file.
You need to use the generic MPEG2 format (not Blu-ray or DVD) and change the Level to High. (High 1440 will also work, but it is designed for specific applications.) You will also need to set the Profile to Main or High.
The most important factor is what type of MPEG2 streams your playback device will support. That will be important for setting the Profile and Level values, which constrain the bitrate and therefore the frame size/frame rate of the MPEG2 stream. (This is what Mylenium was referring to.)
Read this for more technical detail about different Profiles and Levels:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.262/MPEG-2_Part_2#Video_profiles_and_levels
You cannot transfer encoding presets between After Effects and AME. However, remember than you can encode an After Effects comp directly from AME without rendering an intermediate comp first. Either drag and drop the comp from AE's Project panel into the AME queue, or simply import the AE project into AME, and choose the comp you wish to render. In the next version of After Effects, this process will be much easier with the introduction of a new Add To Adobe Media Encoder command from within After Effects.
http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2013/04/whats-new-changed-after-effects-next.html
If you want to contact in-person support for AME, visit the following page and choose After Effects as the product (there is no AME option because AME is not sold separately).

Smallest Video Size Possible in Adobe Media Encoder

Hello,
I have a lot of realmedia audio files that I need to convert to mp4 so that I can put them into InDesign. The reason I want them as mp4 and not mp3 is because I need the seek controls along with the normal play, stop, etc, I need to be able to move forward and backward through the audio as I like, using the seek function is a big deal in this project, and I don't think that is possible if I just place an audio mp3 file into InDesign? If it is, that would be ideal, so please let me know.
Anyway, assuming that it isn't, I'm able to convert the rm files to mp4 ok, but they don't work in InDesign until I run them through Adobe Media Encoder, my question is: there are no video scenes to this 'video' it's just a black screen with the audio playing, what settings do I choose in Adobe Media Encoder to make the video file size as small as humanly possible since all I need is the audio in that video format?
I don't know the first thing about AME so would be grateful for your input as to which exact settings I need to change.

Ok so that didn't work because I needed the video but because of your answer I had to go searching to find where the option to export video was and as a result was able to find all those options that I never saw before, I've managed to get it to be quite a small file size now by messing around with the settings. Thanks.

How to open Adobe Media Encoder CS5 in Windows

Please excuse my ignorance but how do you open Adobe Media Encoder? I've searched everywhere and cannot find a solution. In Adobe help,it says it's in the start menu under all programs but all I have been able to find is a folder with a bunch of dll files. If I try to export a clip from Premiere Pro, It doesn't open, no error message or anything, simply nothing happens. I found an update but that still didn't do anything, still no luck in finding it.

That error can happen for many reasons...one of the reasons that I occassionaly get it is because I try exporting a movie to an external drive that has been formated in the old FAT32 instead of the NTSF standard. FAT32 only allows for file sizes up to 2 gigs. And as soon as it reaches that...I would get that error. I don't know if that is why you are getting that error...but it would be easy to check. 1) are you generating a file that is over 2 gigs? 2) is your drive that you are exporting to FAT 32 (just right click the drive in My Computer and select "properties" then just look for what it says next to "file system".

Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014.0.1 (8.0.1) update is now available

Today, the Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014.0.1 (8.0.1) update was released. This update addresses several bugs, adds support for 4K in H.264, new and simplified presets for YouTube, and other features. Read about the details of the update here:

Why does Adobe Media Encoder fail to export Quicktime Files?

I'm using Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 on a Windows 7 Pro 64 bit PC.
While exporting the Quicktime variant of H.264 for ATSC television broadcast files, Adobe Media Encoder fails. Non-Quicktime H.264's render correctly, but some television stations require quicktime.
Troubleshooting reveals the problem only occurs when attempting to make a 1920x1080 H.264 QuickTime file.
Using the same original file (1920x1080), Adobe Media Encoder WILL export a 720x480/486 H.264 MOV file.
More interesting still, it will ALSO export at 1280x720.
Testing this information to it's limits, I found that the cutoff for a successful render is between a frame size of 1610x906 and 1609x905.
Useless, random sizes, I know... but that's the breaking point for Adobe Media Encoder CS6 (6.0.3.1 to be precise) and H.264 Quicktime files.

I'm trying to make a file with the extension ".MOV" using AME's "HD 1080i 29.97, H.264, AAC 48kHz" preset. AME fails every time with the following message:
"Encoding Failed
Export Error
Error compiling movie.
Unknown error."
Any other file extension (MP4, M4V, etc.) renders fine. The issue seems only to happen when attempting to make an MOV file. It doesn't seem to matter whether I use AME's built-in preset, or customize my own render settings--the problem always happens with any MOV larger than the size I mentioned above.
All of this used to work just fine on the same machine 2 years back with Adobe CS5, previous version of windows and QuicTime. I've been all through the Adobe and Windows possibilities, so I'm grabbing at straws here with QuickTime maybe having something to do with it.
Interesting.
Would you happen to know if Adobe has made any changes to its manner of muxing long-address MPEG-4 AVC data to the MOV file container? Since the MP4 and M4V files encode properly, have you tried opening these files in a media player and simply using the "Save As..." option to move the date to an MOV file container without transcoding audio or video data? I.e., is there any obvious relationship between the size of the MOV file encode (less than/greater than 4 GB) as a function of the resolution "break point" previously discovered?

Audio and video timing thrown off on export to Adobe Media Encoder

Hi.
I have a two and a half minute video which includes a lip-synched character. Everything is working perfectly inside Premiere Pro CS4. When I export this using F4V format, I set it to match frame rate as source then typed in 24fps for good measure.
The audio track is way off after going through Adobe Media encoder however.
The original video (generated in Carrara 7 Pro) was set to 24fps, but it looked like Premiere tried to import it as 29.97 fps. I right clicked on the clip and used Interpret Footage to set it back to 24fps when first setting up this project. (looking in my Project Panel right now, I see the flv icons are all set to 24 fps, but the blue icon representing PremiereProProject is indeed set at 29.93 fps, plus and incorrect size (720x480 px as oppsed to the 608x464 px of my actual flv files).
Seems like it's still pulling in that faster frame rate though when it goes to encode, even though I'm setting stuff to 24fps wherever I see the option.
Any ideas how to fix this (and how to prevent similar problems in the future)?
Again, everything works fine within the Premiere Pro CS4 context. It's just when I export that the video seems to play at a higher frame rate, thus begins running way ahead of the audio.
If there's not a way to fix this (change the project settings) within this file, is there a way to copy all of my data and simply paste it into a Premiere Pro file with the right size and fps? I've now created a custom preset with the correct info.
Thanks

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was the issue.
I bring my stuff in from a 3d program (Carrara) which exported a png sequence at 24 frames per second (in square pixels). I didn't see an appropriate preset, so I chose a randomish DV preset, with 29.97 fps and .9 pixel aspect ratio. i re-interpreted the footage to set back to the correct framerate (and pixels I think). But when I exported from PremPro, it pulls in that initial Project Stting of 29.97 fps, thus all of my audio is off.
Is there a way to re-set the Project Settings after the fact so I can correct my fps and pixel proportions?
Or is my only choice to reimport my footage to a new project with the corect settings?
Thanks

Adobe Media Encoder: introducing stairs (edge artifacts)

Adobe Media Encoder: Is it fundamentally flawed?
When exporting Flash content to video, I noticed that Adobe Media Encoder introduces artifacts around edges that have a sharp contrast. The problem does not seem to be affected by bitrate or other settings and if I frameserve the video from Premiere out to a command line encoder, the problem does not occur, which leads me to believe that there is a big problem within Adobe Media Encoder. Most users may not notice/experience the problem if they are dealing with live action footage, but if your project contains animation (esp. Flash animation), it is a HUGE issue, if you are trying to maintain picture quality.
(Note: I've tried exporting on 3 separate hardware setups and I've even tried reverting to CS2 -> the problem exists in all of my tests)
Can someone else confirm the problem? (The problem is clearly there when exporting to MPEG2, Windows Media)
How to clearly recreate the problem
In Adobe Flash
Create a Flash project: 1280 x 720, 24fps, Stage Color: White
Create two symbols: - a red circle with a thin hairline black stroke
- a larger blue circle with a thicker black stroke
Create 2 layers on the timeline, place an instance of each symbol on the timeline on separate layers and create a motion tween for each symbol so that they move both horizontally and vertically across the screen.
Make the animation last at least 3-4 seconds and make sure the circles are not moving too fast.
Set opposite easing values for each circle (one with 100, the other with -100)
Export Movie... Bitmap Sequence...24 bit color, match screen.
In Premiere, create a new project:
Custom Settings:
Editing Mode: Desktop
Timebase: 24.00 frames/second
Frame Size: 1280 x720
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Square (1.0)
Fields: No Fields (Progressive Scan)
Display Format 24 fps Timecode
Import the bitmap sequence. Select the first file in the sequence and check Numbered Stills.
Place the Flash footage into a sequence.
Export...Adobe Media Encoder.
Try the following preset settings:
- MPEG2, HDTV 720p 24 High Quality
- Windows Media, HDTV 720p 24 High Quality
- Quicktime, HDTV 720p 24

Yeah, mp4 in HTML5 browsers is h.264 encoded - h.264 is a subset of MPEG-4 standard. More info here:
H.264/MPEG-4 AVC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For ease of use in AME, if you look at the right side of the UI in the presets, the Web Video > YouTube presets are the ones that will encode to h.264 with the mp4 extension.
hth,
Joe

Adobe Media Encoder Not Working - Please help

Hi,
Whenever I try and export a video in premiere pro it makes no difference what settings I choose in the Adobe Media Encoder as the video always comes out the same size. When I first tried it I exported it as a 400kbps flash file, but that was taking too long to buffer, so I want to reduce the kpbs. I adjust the bitrate in the encoder, save the settings and everything looks like it's working but no matter what I do the video always comes out the same size. I have tried opening and closing Premiere Pro, even exporting the video as avi and then bringing it back into premiere pro to encode but no joy.
Also, in the encoder it always says "estimated file size 35mb or so but comes out the other end about 10 times that.
Its getting really, really annoying so any help would be very much appreciated.
A

Hi, many thanks for your replies.
The work area that I wish to export is 15 minutes and 38 seconds so relatively short.
I always let it finish encoding and they are all around 250MBs when this is finished.
These are the steps I am taking:
1. Menu>Export>Adobe Encoder
2. Change setting to custom and set the bit rate at 300 kpbs, Framerate 25, Keyframe interval 1, Codec On2 VP6, Audio 32kbps Mono
3. I then save this preset
4. I then click the Deinterlace button on the Output tab
5. I then click OK and save it to my external hardrive
6. Once it is finished encoding - whatever settings I have selected - it always comes out around 250 MBs which is far too big as it takes ages to buffer
If you can help you are a lifesaver!
Thanks

Using Adobe Media Encoder CS4 for MTS files

Hey everyone, I did some searching on this topic to no avail so here I am.
Anyway, I recently got an HD camcorder that records in 1080i AVCHD.
I have no problems getting the MTS files off of my camera but as I'm sure you can imagine, working with those files is a whole other issue.
I've found that Adobe Media Encoder CS4 works great in encoding these files to QuickTime format (.mov) but the problem is that the resulting file size is actually bigger than the original MTS file which is unacceptable, especially considering I'm encoding the files from 1920x1080 down to 1280x720.
Does anyone have any experience using AME CS4 to convert MTS files to a more workable 720p format for uploading to YouTube?
I've tried a number of different custom settings to no avail (where you see an "or" is where I've tried different options):
Format: QuickTime
Video Codec: MPEG4-Video or H.264
Quality: 100
Width: 1280
Height: 720
Frame Rate: 29.97 or 23.976
Field Type: Lower First or Upper First or Progressive
Aspect: Square Pixels (1.0)
I won't list the audio options because I don't think that has any bearing on my problem.
Any ideas as to why the encoded file sizes are actually larger than the MTS file sizes? Maybe AME CS4 is not what I should be using for this task?
Thanks for your help,
Tom

I figured it out.
If you select H.264 as the format you can then select YouTube Widescreen HD for the preset.
This will set everything up to convert your MTS file to 720p and reduce the file size by around 30% with little quality degradation in my experience so far.
The only problem I encountered was the video was kind of choppy when the camera panned but that was remedied by upping the frame rate from 24 to 29.97.
Hope this helps someone and if anyone has any suggestions to improve efficiency or reduce file size post it in here.

Adobe Media Encoder CS6 hangs while encoding Quicktime movies

Every day I am enoding 2-3 videos 15-40 min long with AME CS6 and every second day it freezes or slows down to almost zero. The source material is mostly Quicktime ProRes 422 LT 1080 25p or Quicktime XDCAM EX 1080 25p. Target files are H264 videos in different sizes. The workstation is a MacPro 5.1 Xeon 8core, 12GB Ram and Nvidia Quadro 4000 with OSX 10.8.2. Only restart of the computer helps but just for a while then it slows down or freezes again. I am also using Davinci Resolve 9 lite which is sometimes not able to adress the QTencoder when AME is open ... ?
Any Ideas for a solution?
Thank you!

I think it is a problem of Adobe QT32 Server. Adobe Media Encoder is encoding all Quicktime Movies through this Adobe QT32 Server, which is somehow the link between Adobe and Quicktime. But since Adobe QT32 Server is a 32bit application and Adobe Media Encoder a 64bit application it somehow blocks the Media Encoder. And if you have other applications running which somehow try to use Quicktime codec when Media Encoder is using the Adobe QT32 Server than everything slows down or collapses. These are my observations so far. I avoid any other video application as long as AME is open. For example: I close Davinci Resolve when I want to launch AME and close AME when I want to launch Davinci Resolve. This helps so far.
