Adobe Media Encoder refuses to encode for Quicktime

Dear all,
I have huge headaches with Premiere and I hope you can help me out! I have done a couple of fairly basic Premiere project (less than 5 minutes, all with jpegs, not real videos - it's for a slideshow to be projected using a video projector). Using Premiere CS4 is relatively easy but I have the following issue:
Everytime I try to enconde a project to Quicktime using AME (version 4.1.0), AME launchs itself, the project appears, ME launchs the encoding which inevitably ends up in just 2 seconds! On AME side, it appears there is no error (status bar is green) but of course, nothing was encode and no movie file (.mov) ever appears.
The thing I noticed is that if I encode to Quicktime using one of the a DV Pro preset, AME encodes without any problem but if I want to use a specific size or one of the codec not covered by DV Pro (such as .H264 or MPEG4), then the same problem inevitably arrives.
For info, I m using
- Windows Vista 64bits (Home Premium SP1) on a Intel Core i7 CPU (2.93 Mhz) with 12GB of RAM and plenty of Hard Disk space
- AME version 4.1.0 and Premiere Pro CS4 (also 4.1.0)

Thanmks for your message. Actually my issue is not that I cannot read in Quicktime files produced by Adobe Media Encoder but that Adobe Media Encoder refuses to produce any file at all. When UI click on "Start Queue", encoding start, is announced completed in less than 2 seconds and no file ever appeared anywhere...

I understand what you mean, but you need quicktime installed to create quicktimes as it requires the quicktime engine to make them.
Quicktime is not just a player, it's a whole world of encoding, and AME CS4 needs quicktime installed (version 7.6 or higher) to make quicktimes.
I'm not suggesting this is going to solve your problems, but it's one of the most important things to check. If I was having your problem, that would be the first thing I would check. Your quicktime version.

Hello.
My problem is similar.
I previously created by \ " AVID media composer quticktimereferenzen ".
Then I exported the movie with " Adobe media encoder "( CS4 ).
I converted the references in mpg's or other formats. Relationships with new site (bsw. 320 * 240).
It went very quickly and was very handy.
But suddenly reads " Adobe media encoder "quicktime references to" no longer. The preview window is black.
All other programs (including AE CS4 ) Show and process the movies without problems.
Somebody has an idea about this?
