No QT / PR422 option exporting via Media Encoder?

[Mabel Valdiviezo]

Hi,

I have similar issues. I just downloaded the prores presets, thanks to your link.
Now, can you tell me where did you placed the PRORES folder?
Anywhere specifically? Rigth now it is in downloads folder.

Many thanks,

Mabel Valdiviezo

I just added the ProRes presets to Photoshop CS6 on my Mac. I placed the presets folder in /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Presets/Video/Adobe Media Encoder/QuickTime. Works fine. Thanks for the link Sangye!

I wish there was a preset for Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) 24 fps though. 🙁

Hey, I have the same problem. I downloaded the presets, but AME will not give me the Quicktime option. I’m doing a school project, and I have to export several sequences, and we have to deliver .mov files (QT), but Media Encoder does not give me that option, even though Premiere Pro gives me that option.

I found a solution to this problem. You can find the instructions to change a txt file on windows or mac in this forum. https://forums.adobe.com/message/4637985

The text file called AddExporterList.txt (on mac) is in the package contents of the AME application in contents/resources/txt/ Duplicate the file and change the copy by deleting the information so it looks exactly like this:

# MediaCore Plugins

# AME Plugins

AudioWriter
WinMediaWriter

# AME Plugin Formats

MPEG4
H.264 Blu-ray

Then delete the original file txt file and rename the new one to match the original file. (AddExporterList.txt) (The system won’t let you just change the original file because it’s locked, but you can replace it with a new version). Then you should be able to launch AME and it will have all the options for quicktime. Then, if you want, you can download and install the ProRes settings listed earlier in this forum using the import presets button at the top of AME.

I also found the solution in Doug’s post but after applying fix found MPEG2 presets disabled (there may have been others disabled as well but I was mostly paying attention to the missing MPEG2). I was able to enable ALL export formats (Quicktime, MPEG2, FLV, etc) by:

• Keeping the original AddExporterList.txt in “Adobe Media Encoder CS6/Contents/Resources/txt/”
• Changing the extension for each of the actual bundles that AddExporterList.txt is importing from
“Adobe Media Encoder CS6/Contents/Plug-ins/Common/Exporter[FORMAT].bundle”
to “Adobe Media Encoder CS6/Contents/Plug-ins/Common/Exporter[FORMAT].bak.bundle”

That way AMC will still keep the default presets but will fail to load the bundles for the additional formats once they’re imported. Obviously the use of “.bak” is a bit arbitrary. Too early to tell if there’s any drawbacks for this method, but I’d tend to think there wouldn’t be.

This helped me get the Quicktime presets into AME, so thanks for that.
But, when I’ve imported ProRes 422 HQ Presets from Adobe and try to use them I get “Preset Error: Incompatible Video Codec found in preset. Preset load failed”.

Any ideas to fix it?

I have had the same issue after a fresh LION install. All of my ProRes codecs were gone. I installed FCPX and they were still not there. This was the fix I found after doing some research.

Hi, I know this happened awhile ago, but I’m jut finding the thread now. I downloaded the extra pro res export settings, but I can’t seem to figure out how to then access them through premiere. Any leads here? Thanks so much!

Doug. I just created an account on this forum, specially to thank you very much!
I need to convert a lot of mts files to ProRes and this tip just saved me!

Have this problem a while ago, I’m using AME CC for windows. I downloaded AME update 7.2.2 and this solved the problem. https://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5770&fileID=5780
