Encode Premiere Pro and After Effects projects automatically using watch folders
You can now import and automatically encode After Effects, Premiere Pro, and Final Cut Pro (FCP) XML projects into
Adobe Media Encoder using watch folders. You can also import a file that you have created via scripting provided the
XML structure is valid.
1
Click the '+' sign in the Watch Folders panel. Browse and locate the project folder.
2
The selected folder is added to the list of watch folders.
3
Adobe Media Encoder will import the project and automatically add any sequences or compositions that are found
in the root level of the folder to the render queue.
If you move your project to a watch folder location, links to associated media can get broken especially if your watch
folder is on a network drive. Ensure that the system running Media Encoder is able to find all of the project's media.
You can also place a shortcut to your project file in the watch folder instead of moving the actual project file.
