i just checked here again.... i only get th= e "Automatic (based on source)" option on the different propertie= s on the following formats:
MPEG2 Blu-ray
MPEG2-DVD
H.264 Blu-ray (Legacy)
FLV
F4V
...the tw= o last there is only the framerate that you can take from source, but it au= tomaticly takes the size from source, then you have to check a box to force= it to resize. Another inconsistency in AME.
I am on a windows machine so i don't have access to the Prores enc= ode presets, but none of my quicktime codecs has the option to use the sour= ce attributes. ?

Robert, I use ProRes as a Preview forma= t, and Match Source Attributes is available to me.

Byron= , to your OP, once you change anything, you're not matching source attr= ibutes any longer. =A0So, there's your answer.

It's easy to make presets. =A0Just pick an export f= ormat that contains the codec you want, modify anything else, and save it. = =A0

Presets sort alphanumerically, so that's s= omething I keep in mind when naming them. =A0Putting the most used ones at = the top saves a bit of time. =A0Consistent naming methods keep everything g= rouped nicely, and minimize my searching for the one I want.

Hi

I think it is only mpeg2 that has the "match source attr= ibutes" setting, which is a shame since it could be nice to have in ev= ery format... AME could use a good cleanup in making the settings for the d= ifferent formats more alike. Some has bitrate in Kbps others in more useful= Mbps, some has a framerate setting, some don't.
And the "Filters"tab should just be removed and replaced with= a effectpreset independent of the encodesettings, so you could add differe= nt effects to a clip, like add black leadin/leadout, adjust volume, apply a= LUT, timecode burnin, etc...

Sorry for the OT, I haven't been able to find an answer to this and usu= ally assume if this list doesn't know, it's the end of the road. ;-= )

Some of the presets in Adobe Media Encoder(CS6 here) h= ave "Match Source Attributes" for the size, frame rate, etc.. I w= ould like to make some presets that convert footage to other formats withou= t changing the size and frame rate. I see no way to set values to "Mat= ch Source"=A0when making a preset. Looks like I would have to create p= resets for every size I might run into. Has anyone found a good workaround = for this?

Thanks,
Byron
