Default Re: Error Launching Video Engine

It looks like the AvidVideoEngineSetup.exe is not delivered in the Windows 2022.12 Pro Tools Ultimate version.

From the installation log:

Property(S): PTNOAVE = {PT_NOAVE} The Avid Video Engine is not installed. If you will import and work with video files in Pro Tools, please run the Avid Video Engine installer at:\n\nC:\Program Files\Avid\Pro Tools\Pro Tools Utilities\Avid Video Engine

But no Avid Video Engine is delivered...

Please advice

Anybody on mac has this problem? I do! The method with uninstall, reboot, reinstall, reboot does not help unfortunately.
Avid Video Engine stopped working I think after I installed some pro audio codecs via the mac update function. I dont know if this is related and why on earth should it, but who knows. Previously with the same PT and macOS version video engine was working fine.
So, right now Pro Tools is unusable!

Tried with PT 2022.12, 2022.09, 2022.04 .

Im on macOS ventura 13.2.

I'm on Mac OS 12.6 and PT 2022.12 and 2022.10 both have video engine problems. I can only bounce a MOV one time, then have to close session and reopen or quit and reopen to bounce another. otherwise it hangs and crashes. get errors importing session data with a video as well. was hoping .12 fixed it based on the bug fixes but its pretty broken for me

Also having the same problem of video engine crashing after one export (of a mov).

Also, does anyone know why Pro Tools can no longer export just the audio and slap it on top of the existing video? We now have to completely re-encode the video...

It's been that way ever since Catalina. Has something to do with old Quicktime components being 32-bit and Apple never updating them to 64-bit, meaning Avid could never really bring "Same As Source" QT bouncing for H264 video back if you're on Catalina or newer (every other format can do same as source though because of using alternative codecs that were updated to 64-bit).

Oh damn, that sucks. So is the consensus that apple will never update that? I used that basically every day! H264 may be crappy, but its small file size makes it great for sending back and forth for the client to take a quick look. It seems to work fine in Logic X.

I suppose that could also be what's crashing my video engine after every mov export?

While it's an extra step, you can use the free www.shutterencoder.com to marry the audio to the video.
