Manually remove Adobe media cache?

I'm looking for I have the Adobe/Common/media file Cache file and want to remove about 20 GB of data in this folder.

I can just select the files I want to delete and delete them manually or I have to open each adobe program and remove them through preferences?

I would like to remove them manually if possible because they are old files, I recognize that I want more but don't know what program is caching them as it is not possible to lookin at them in the folded media Cache files

Thank you

  • removal of media cache files to speed up the loading of project?

    Hi all

    Here's a question about media cache files... Once again.

    My projects has recently begun to be slower to load than even light. Nothing has changed, but I noticed that I had 61 GB of data in the media cache files folder. I wonder if remove the contents of the cache of media AND media cache files folder stand in the place and bring my speed?

    Thank you.

    This will remove the database only.

    Not exactly... This will remove the entries in the database and the files in cache for some media, that are currently not in use, e.g. offline media. It can also remove some entries from the database and the cache files for the media used in a project, on what an editor does not work currently, but the majority of them will stay. In other words, the "Clean" button should have been called "partially own something media Cache database randomly.

    So, in order to actually clean the media Cache database one should manually delete all the files in the folders as media Cache and Cache media files.

  • Adobe Media Cache organization

    Ultra quick question, all. I looked and found several ways to clean the cache, but not a lot of information about what happens when you clean the cache while you are still working on a project. I have about 30 GB of caching of files on my hard drive to the OS (because I was a fool and did not move the file cache on my drive sctrach). Anyway, I am need to clean this possibility and wonder what happens when you come to delete all the files inside there, then reload a project? Is it just to create new files for what you worked (just need a new made?) I could always just move media files to another drive, but there are files there projects underway; I can't just say the difference between the two (and more looking at the dates). Your help is appreciated!

  • Media cache - need a definitive answer as to what is happening

    I keep getting the Cache of media using AE warning unless I have manually purge the content.  No matter if it's 80% or 20%, if the drive is more than some number I get, I get the warning.

    After searching and reading of the many discussions on the media Cache.  I have the same question.

    ADOBE AUTOMATICALLY RECYCLES THE CACHE IF I DISABLE THE WARNING?

    My 'new' project see the advantage of the cache WITHOUT me manually purge the reader?

    I don't like everything simply "turn off" the warning without knowing what is happening.

    The warning is displayed if the cache size you chose is in a certain percentage of the total capacity of the disk. It is also affected by how much you have actually filled with worms up, so why sometimes, you will get the warning and other times you will be. I forgot the details of everything, but basically, if you set the size of your cache at 100g on a disc of 128g, you will get the warning every time, no matter how full it is. If you set your cache to 100g on a 500g drive, you will not get the warning, unless you've filled the disk with ~ 350g of files and your cache is also quite complete.

    As for the other issue, it is essential to effective reading in AE to empty your cache. As soon as you have reached your max cache (say 100g full on a cache of 100g) your caching to speed reading will drop considerably, as your computer now has to deal with the removal of the old pieces of cache when new writing. There's really very little reason to maintain your complete cache, even if it's all in the current project, as any minor change in your computer will cause the need for the discount cache anyway. If you have 90% of your finished project and are only actively working on a small precomp, then of course keep your cache autour so he put in cache for a reading of the full model. But if not, keep an eye on your cache level and make disappear when they are close to being complete.

  • Rendering of the texts of the composer issues each line with Adobe Media Encoder

    I find the paragraph of text defining "Each Adobe line Composer" a huge time saver when dealing with large amounts of text in the aftermath. I rarely have to do manual breaks follow-up or line to make look it good, rather than working with the standard single-line composer.

    The problem is that when I give thanks to Adobe Media Encoder (which I have to do because they removed H264-mp4 AE:s internal renderer support) the text is treated as a single line of typeset text. If the final result does not resemble my AE project.

    I found two solutions to this problem:

    1. make a video file without loss in the AE render engine and then compress him with Media Encoder. It takes more time and HARD drive space, and it did not allow me to continue working at AE while rendering.

    2. only use single line text composed and make all the settings manually, the old school way. It would not be a problem if I had not already used and fell in love with, the option of each line.

    Is there someone who can think of a third and better preference, solution?

    I use both CC 2014 of AE and AMC.

    Looks like you have found a bug that has never bitten me before and has nothing to do with h.264 compression. Here's the rendering of your text to a tiff file.

    I have filed a bug report and suggest you do the same.

  • Reinstalling Adobe Media Encoder

    Adobe Media Encoder crashes at startup.  He suggests that I have reinstall the application.  I use creative cloud and I was wondering the best method to reinstall.  I can't seem to find an uninstall program, and if I remove it from applications manually, it does not indicate it needs to be updated (in the update), or it will appear as an option in the application manager.  I guess that's because it is considered a part of the first.  Does this mean that I have to uninstall all of first?  I'd rather not... Any advice or suggestions welcomed.  Thank you!

  • Need help to manually remove the malware module: extenstions list gophotoit.

    I tried to install a media player, the other day and it was crap and I started to feel little specific about this, so I uninstalled completely from my computer. But when returning to firefox, as I noticed that three new extensions have been added. I disabled all three, but one had the option to remove it. The other two are still in my Add-ons Manager. They are not enabled, causing so not a problem (I hope), but I would like to remove them. (GoPhotoIt is the main I've read all over the internet). I tried to follow the instruction manual to uninstall, but there is no file in the extensions folder that corresponds to the IDkeys in the Panel "of troubleshooting information. (The same extenstions were on Chrome, but it was very easy to trash all three for some reason any FF is not making it easy). (Notice: no option 'Remove': http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v55/xaraan/ScreenShot2013-02-24at102511AM_zps325da890.png)

    OK, NOW I GET IT!

    First, you will need to follow the manual removal instructions, but when you go to the library, don't just go to the Firefox folder and check and remove, but also the Mozilla folder (extensions folder to that) and delete the files. Then you can do the deletion of SQL that I listed above and they seem to have disappeared now, even after restarting the browser several times.

  • Cannot open preferences of Adobe Media Encoder

    I have a problems with the encoding, so tried several relocations. Finally managed to do work by removing only not preferences on reinstall it. However, I am still unable to open the preferences. I'm going to Media Encoder CC > Preferences... and nothing happens. It's using the latest version of SOUL CC (2015.3) on Mac OS El Capitan (10.11.6). Everyone knows this?

    Hi Jayne,

    You have an external monitor connected?

    Also, try the following steps:

    Go to the following locations:

    1 location: In the Finder, click go > go to folder > ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe

    Situation 2: Go > go to folder > ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe

    Location 3: Documents > Adobe

    Everywhere, rename the folders 'Adobe' to 'OldAdobe '.

    Launch Adobe Media Encoder, accept the license agreement and see if it works.

    Note: You will lose your customized workspaces and keyboard shortcuts.

  • Where can I find a program uninstaller for Adobe Media Player?

    Adobe Media Player is no longer supported, so I want to uninstall it, as well as all the associated files and extensions, but also be sure that no other program is accidentally uninstalled, and only the files related to Media Player app? My computer is a Mac Pro, my OS is 10.7.5, if that helps.

    Before you proceed with the steps below, please mention the name and the version of Adobe installed on your Mac applications.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------

    I see that suggests vacuuming App you mentioned in the Adobe Media Player to file Applications and preferences in the same basket.

    You can run it.

    or

    Try to screw up the app in the Applications folder.

    Also delete the related Adobe Media player from ~/Library/Preferences and Preferencespreferences.

    Look for the Adobe Media Player related folders / files in ~/Library/application support or ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe.

    Also check under System Library = / Library/application support or/Library/Application Support / Adobe.

    Check under Cache folders under system so User Library.

    ~/Library/caches and/Library/Cache.

    ~/Library = the user library

    / Library = system library.

    Steps to open the library folder.

    (1) right click on the Finder on dock icon and select the option "Go - To Folder."
    (2) you will get a text box, type in below mentioned command and then press 'return '. (Don't forget ~ symbol)

    ~/Library

    It will open the library user.

    Same procedure for the library system, but no ~ symbol, just/library.

  • Adobe Media Encoder CC 2015 slow rendering time

    Hello!

    I'm new to video editing in general, but I'm quite intimate with the PC hardware so here.

    Specifications:

    • The stock of 4770K i7, no thermal regulation speed
    • 8 GB 1600 MHz CL9 DDR3 RAM
    • GTX 780 + 170 MHz clock and 110% limit/95 degrees C temp power target
    • Driver 368.39 used
    • 3 x Samsung 840 EVO (no raid)
      • Windows 10 64-bit running off SSD1
        • PE/AE/SOUL installed on this drive
        • Cache / Scratch areas on this drive
        • Images under development
      • SSD 2
        • Games
      • SSD3
        • Games

    I save images using shadowplay NVIDIA from a 75 Hz screen 2560 x 1080. The output file is a 1920 x 1080 60 fps 35Mbps bitrate H.264 MP4 file. (1920 x 810 with black bars).

    I would add that sequences Adobe Premiere elements 14, do any editing that I have to do, and then export it to a file of bitrate MP4 1080 p H.264 12Mbps. The rendering process usually take around 10-12 minutes to 6 minutes video.

    I then add this file to output in Adobe After effects CC 2015, create a composition with drag and create a button, add a few layers of text and export it via Adobe Media Encoder CC 2015 (AE supports native H.264 from what I understand) with the SAME PARAMETERS. But this time, and I estimate that I type here, render times are 40 minutes.

    I ran a few tests and in the course of the first to make the CPU turns to about 80% CPU and the use of 1.8 to 2 GB, as I watch often some youtube in the meantime, so that understandeably not 100%. However, to the course to make AE/SOUL, le CPU CPU remains at about 30% CPU and 1.8 GB ram usage. With the help of the Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA) I expect to see more high on my GTX 780 loads, but he is 2-3% of load, so anything.

    Since my render outputs are (to the best of my knowledge) identical between the EP and shall return AE/SOUL, it seems that the use of material by SOUL is in this case. Other posters have suggested that some effects require the previous frame to be returned to pass, but I have not used such effects, are limited to simple text.

    So what's happening? I would appreciate any insight you have on this and I stand ready to provide more information that you need.

    Kind regards

    I'll try to be to condense my game data on a single disk or both and use the third exclusively for editing. Or I could buy a new one, if the budget allows.

    This would be ideal. In my freelance studio, I have three separate units

    1. OS/software
    2. Footage
    3. Cache (if there are different types of player, it should be faster than you [I know your are currently all the same, it's more for future fans forum])

    It will probably not help much for the rendering speed, but it should help when you're interacting.

    Before moving on to something else, I want to explain what I'm doing with text. I add text and overlay video, with sometimes a few very basic motion tracking (I can't forget this feature if I need). To the best of my knowledge, PE lets just add a black screen with text over time, like on a Blackboard for example. No text overlays/over-the-video (if it has no meaning...). So respect that, Premiere Pro have these features? If so I could make the switch.

    Certainly, you should stop using the Premiere Elements and start using Premiere Pro. Not only it gives MUCH more flexibility in the work, but you can layer objects of type as much as you want on top of your film.

    He was also transparent enough with AE. By example, if you have a shot that you want to add text, you could cut the part that would have text and simply right-click and choose "replace with After Effects composition. That images will be replaced with a dynamic link to a model of EI that already contains the images that you are handling. You save your AE project and results will be displayed immediately on the first! It's really convenient. If you want to keep this direct link, you can. Or if you are sure you are finished with AE work and wants to read smoothly at first, you can choose to make and replace it. It restores an intermediate file to AE and replaces the model tied first with her. VERY useful feature.

    If you keep track of movement, you probably want to use AE. Although you can make an animation in Premiere Pro, AE is much more suited to do. And if you start to get really fancy, you probably want to do some rotoscoping too.

    Corentin Robin wrote:

    I understand that EI requires much more accurately, and the way you explained it enabled me to understand one of the big question I had with her, which was "why reading in real time is so difficult in AE? You answered that perfectly, cheers!

    There is much more detail in the fact that I could get! Basically, AE must first build a cache, and then he reads. Maybe I should have said that. It is even simpler and shorter!

    On the issue of compression, I realized that the work of a compressed codec is not ideal. My gross output of Shadowplay file was indeed H.264 because I believe that is the single output file, it allows. I don't think I can do without shadowplay for now because it has unique characteristics which cannot be replaced:

    • For extremely low hardware with Nvidia drivers
    • Ability to retroactively save a video after an interesting "keep-worthy" event, to avoid recording 24/7 in the hope of something interesting

    Those who do not sound like some very useful features. Just make sure that you get quality settings in the codec to achieve a data rate as it allows.

    Corentin Robin wrote:

    Also, to continue on the issue of compression, I got mixed responses regarding this. Some, like you, would say that working with H.264 sacrifices quality and performance, but some say that it is not a problem since the youtube compression will be severely disfigue the file in any case.

    YouTube can recompress, Yes. But if so, it adds ANOTHER layer of compression. That would be an argument even more important to preserve the quality of your side as much as possible.

    Corentin Robin wrote:

    I think my question would be: I would win a much higher quality using Fraps/Dxtory where I can control the settings of the raw images (keeping in mind I lose the comfort of ShadowPlay) even though the compression of Youtube should (I think?) disfigure this film?

    I think that the benefits of ShadowPlay outweigh the concerns that I had about compression in only one step. I still say don't do any other steps in making H.264s again and again that you transmit your project between applications. If you need to make something (you won't have to if you start to use together the Premiere Pro and AE), renders an intermediate codec until you create your deliverable.

    Corentin Robin wrote:

    So, keeping in mind of all of your suggestions and the constraints I have / has chosen to conform to, I should:

    • Have the work files on a separate disk, with areas scratch on this drive or free
    • Replace PE PP to eliminate the need for the AE and have only a single record
    • Since a single rendition is necessary, it is therefore more a real need for an intermediate codec low compression/lossless

    Yes. Although, you can still use AE, you have eliminated the need to make the intermediate files if you use Premiere Pro and AE set.

    In addition the Dynamic Link workflow I mentioned, you can also (once you have finished your editing in Premiere Pro), your Premiere Pro project import into AE. Use import > import Premiere Pro control project. She puts your complete sequence in AE with each cut on its own layer. You really need to do if you started to do really complex with your AE work if.
