New source of enjoyment from the beloved Media Encoder. When you queue up exports from several different Premiere Projects it fails on all exports except those from the first project. Like it gets confused on the links to the other projects and claims it couldn’t find it and has rendered offline files. What in god’s name is the point of this program?! Jesus Christ.

Hi Dennis,

thanks for your efforts but I wanna make clear that I’m not looking for technical troubleshooting. I know for a fact that neither my system nor that project are compromised. Been editing for a while and on R3D footage almost since it came out, so it really isn’t lack of expertise here. It’s just absolute rage at the face that CC 14 is apparently in a very arrogant fashion designed to run on either the strongest machine ever or kill your computer. I keep praying for a viable open source alternative to come along and give the snobbish creative suite a thorough and much needed dusting up. helped quite a bit in the 3D scene.

so what you’re saying is they made an update that makes R3D basically unworkable for 90% of editors out there that don’t happen to sit on absolute beasts of render-machines? nice one.

Hi Tero, Hi Dennis,

I almost exclusively work on RED footage, it always worked quite smoothly on CS6 and I feel like it also exported quicker there.
Regardless, even if my machine is underpowered, that’s no reason it should just violently crash. I would understand lagging and getting slow and stuff. but full-on freeze-ups, i’m not used to that on macs and it is quite upsetting I must say.

It’s h264 vimeo 1080p HD preset for export and a roughly cinemascope 1920×810 avchd project. again, have worked this way for a while now, it never felt slow or faulty in terms of performance.

Cheers,
Simon
