Comments.Text: Sounds like a bug. Usually you export directly to AME and set your format there, so the workflow you use is not very common and it might have gone undetected in bug testing. I would report it to Adobe. https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en

Comments.Text: Yeah it is odd, not had an issue like this other systems, must be my install that is messed up because anyway I try though media encoder, .mov can't be done. It comes out as .mxf files every time. I just used an alternative encoder. Thanks for your comment.

Comments.Text: Maybe you dont have QuickTime installed? Could explain why it chooses a different format as a sort of fallback.
