When trying to view the settings or start que on any .wmv (windows Media Video) file I drag into the flash video encoder, the program immediately crashes. I've tried many different WMV files from different sources, all the same outcome.
View 1 RepliesThe CS4 media encoder was quite a downstep from the simple and solid one in CS3 in terms of usability and stability. In Vista I had to deal a lot with crahes here and crashes there depending on file formats or number of passes, it could rarely get things done. Now I upgraded to Win 7. But this time I can't even encode ANYTHING. It always crashes and gives me this error: Adobe, give me a version that WORKS for all that loads of money I paid you over the years!
View 2 RepliesI've had Flash CS4 (a legally purchased single-user licence) since the day it came out and used it practically every day without any major problems. Today I opened it up to carry on with some work, and it crashed. I had a whole host of other stuff that was open and updating at the same time, so I waited until that was done, then I tried again. It crashed. So I rebooted, and tried again. It crashed. Slightly panicked, I uninstalled Flash CS4, rebooted, re-installed it, and tried again. It crashed. Panic giving way to anger, I googled the issue, and this time uninstalled, with 'Remove user preferences' checked, went through my Windows system and manually deleted any associated files in my Application Data folder, rebooted, reinstalled, rebooted, and tried again. It crashed.
I have now just downloaded the Adobe CS4 Cleanup utility and run it, but after twenty minutes hanging at the 'Removing all session folders' screen and no processor activity I could see, I quit the program. I'm tempted to try reinstalling again (obviously) but I'm pretty sure I know what's going to happen.Just so it's clear, here are a list of the variables involved:Registered single-user licence of Flash CS4, running without issue since 2008Windows XP SP3The Flash IDE opens fine on its own, but crashes when it tries to open ANY Flash fileI have CS4 installed on my laptop, and that can open the same files fineAny
I have been encoding 1920x1080i mov files (h.264/aac) to 1280x720p (vp6/mp3) flvs.However, when I add older HD content into the AMC que, content with non-standard presets, the program hangs.I tried to import about 15 files last night and the program just sat there all night in a 'NOT RESPONDING' state.The video's have different audio and video settings and it's little difficult to pinpoint exactly what they were.Some are 1440x1080, some are 1280x900, some have PCM audio some of mp3.Now I temporarily resolved this issue by simply using cs4 master on my mac pro which worked great.However I have noticed a huge speed increase in CS5 64bit AMC.It takes 2-3 hours to encode 1 flash video on my mac pro (dual quad core xeon 2.9Ghz/32GB ram) with CS4.It takes ~20 minutes on my windows 7 station (single core 2 quad 3Ghz/8GB ram) with CS5.
If I drop a single file into the AMC CS5 que, regardless of the resolution, frame rate, or sound codec; it will import.If I then add another file with a different resolution AMC will hang and become non-responsive.It never crashed but I can't wait 12+ hours to see if it accepted a job or not.As I said before this problem was not observed on CS4 for mac it worked flawlessly, albeit a little slow.[code]

I am trying to use the standalone Media Encoder that comes with Production Premium CS4 to convert some Quicktime reference files created by our AVID Media Composer systems. I have tried importing a QT ref that points to the AVID JFIF 2:1 media (Quicktime recognizes it as Avid Meridien Compressed 2:1) and a self-containd QT that is holding an AVID DV codec. In each case, import into the Media Encoder results in black for video. The Media Encoder that comes with CS3 works fine. Why does the Media Encoder for CS4 not?
View 1 RepliesI am using Flash CS 4, If I attempt to file>import>import video, the import video window/dialog box opens, if I browse and select a AVI.file.I receive a dialog box telling me it is in the wrong format and to use the Launch Adobe Media Encoder button to convert to proper format. This is where problem starts.An Adobe Media Encoder Debug Event dialog box opens, it states that "Adobe Media Encoder has encountered an error",ScrInit.cpp-42
the only option is to select a continue button, then an Adobe Media Encoder dialog box opens stating that "adobe media encoder has encountered a problem and must close. It wants to report the issue to Microsoft, but that doesn't help me start or repair my problem. I have created a 3 page PDF of screen images which shows the sequence of dialog boxes and messages, I have tried to locate error data files in application data files, I can find the folder but it does not contain any error txt files.

View 1 RepliesWhen I put a 720 x 576 .mov file through the video encoder, it's got black bars on the left and right of the actual video. I've got a feeling that Adobes Encoder doesn't particularly like anything other than a video with an Aspect Ration of 16:9. Anyone know a fix for this?
Also, if the clients videographer cannot provide me with a 1024 x 576 .mov (16:9) file instead, is it possible for me to get his 750 x 576 down to the required size of 512 x 288?
Are there any audio encoding libraries for Flash? I need to record sound from a Flash applet, and then upload it to a server with HTTP. The problem is that the raw audio file is really big. Is there any way to encode it into MP3/OGG/etc from Flash and then upload it to the server?

View 1 RepliesIve found alot swf encoders, but they're all consumer push-button solutions which have given me a noticable loss in quality, regardless if i feed them flv's or uncompressed. As of the moment the only way to get comparible quality is to import one video at a time onto a flash stage, publish, and undo so its length doesnt affect the next flash video. Anyone know of a better way?
View 12 Repliesi was just trying out the trial version of Flash CS5 and the Media Encoder. I tried to encode some mpeg2 files as f4v, but the media encoder says it cannot decode mpeg2-files. The help topic (http:url]...) says: "Depending on what other software you have installed, the following options may be available: ... mpeg-2..."so i was wondering which piece of other software i need to use mpeg-2 as input format for the media encoder.
View 1 RepliesI cannot believe how long it is taking to encode a 3 minute video using the media encoder in CS5. I am running a Pentium Dual Core processor with 8mb of RAM and it is taking close to an HOUR to encode this 3 minute vid to a F4V 1920 x 1080 I've shut down as many processes as I can - but this is ridiculous. Am I missing something that can help speed up this process so that my news conference interviews get posted the same day that they take place????

View 2 RepliesI have a web app that connects two computers and streams video to each other like a video conference. It currently works and also records the video in .f4v format. I am trying to figure out what I need to do to enable the client pc's to stream in H.264. Is it true that I have to use some type of encoder (like Live Encoder) to use H.264? If so, does Live Encoder have to be installed on the client computers? If that is true, is there a way to install the live encoder through our web app, configure it, and close it down when the conference is over, with no interaction from the client? Is there some type of plug-in that we could use that would eliminate the need for installing live encoder on the client computers?

View 1 RepliesI'm having a bit of trouble with flash cs3 video encoder. I'd like to encode some mpeg files to flv but I keep getting errors when trying to encode. The mpeg files are raw imported from my dvd video cam. I'm guessing they are mpeg-2 720 by 480 res. Quicktime files encode fine but I haven't tried any other video types. I thought it was a codec problem as all I use is vlc for video. So I tried k-lite codec pack nut no success, same errors. Just wondering if anyone had any advice. I suppose I could encode my mpeg files to mov first? But what encoder would I use to keep high quality?

I have a 720x576px clip (anamorphic), which I want to encode into a flv with the right aspect ratio (720x405px). In the new flash media encoder, you have three settings.
- Scale to fit
- Black borders
- Change output size
But none of those settings allows me to stretch the video to the right aspect ratio, I always get the file with 720x405, but black borders left and right.
