Same problem here even on the lastest 22.1.1 ....

Hello Adobe ? This is a major issue 3 months after new release this is crazy

same problem this is major issue....

I have the same issue and this is ridiculous, this is not fair to pay for a program and for it to not work at the end of the day. I had to deliver a VERY important project and guess what, this program is not working. Incredible

I can't send ant project from AE to AME! It is a nightmare!

on December 7, 2021, still same issue - doesn't connect to project, cannot export anything from AE.

Same here, comp send never show in AME :(

I continue to use DUME (from DUIK developper) https://rainboxlab.org/tools/dume/
work great ant it's fast

Media Enconder is a zombie app. It doesn't know it is already dead.

Same problem here, must've updated over night, it worked fine yesterday

You could try with AfterCodecs Exporter for Premiere and After https://www.autokroma.com/AfterCodecs

If it's working there, the issue is the Adobe exporters not rendering. if it doesn't you're right there's probably a rendering issue

New Media Encoder not rendering ANY videos from After Effects. When file is dropped into Encoder and hit play it disappears. Rolling back to Media Encoder 2021

when layers are complex and new feature which came with update -multi-frame rendering - is enabled (it is switched on in the preferences), media encoder can meet a bug - be unable to export it to render with new technology. For me it helps to turn multi-frame rendering option off for complex projects (and restarting pc after that) if i need to render exactly in Media Encoder. But every situation is individual and this bug should be fixed. I agree. you can also render in After Effects in mov format and than just rerender in Media Encoder video file to mp4. As solution for some time.

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback but it's not about memory issue. Media Encoder stops working and keeps loading while its trying to export a video file.

An immediate update is a must currently. Otherwise downgrading the app would be logical.

Thanks.

Same problem on mac osx

same probleme here

Same problem

Same problem

Same problem here since updating to the latest AE / Media Encoder

Hello. Same problem happens to me when new feature - multi-frame rendering is enabled. Try to turn it off in Preferences - memory and perfomance section and restart your computer.

With new update, Media Encoder does not work properly with complex layer types. I can't connect to my After Effects file to export video. It just try to load the window but nothing happens...

Also experiencing this on Mac Pro. AME opens when I send a render from AE but the comp never appears. Also tried adding the project directly in AME but after selecting the project file it won't load the comps. I've resorted to rendering directly from AE render queue and transcoding in AME to desired file.
