Excalibur and Compass do not export media, Exc. doesn't complete user commands

Shadi

When I try to export using Excalibur, nothing happens, when I use Compass it simply exports to the default premiere location

When I try to use Excalibur user commands they do not work

i will provide a video on the process: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LBSbgGpIY4lEVqAJnd65i8AO9jFMMZ4k/view?usp=share_link

I'm sure that something is blocking the export feature in these extensions. And also blocking multiple keyboard inputs for the excalibur user commands

Ivan, if you need any another detail feel free to ask, arrow, graverobber and watchtower work perfectly

Excalibur version: Excalibur_1.1.4
Compass version: Compass_1.1.2
Premiere Pro version: 2023
Operating System and version: Windows 11

Compass is a victim of API bug, we need to wait for a fix on Adobe side:

For Excalibur you need to create export preset in Media Encoder, you don't have one, so there is no export happening.
Also you found a bug in Excalibur, where you can select output path and if you don't have export preset, Excalibur will break 🫢
After you will add export preset, the problem should be fixed.

tip:
After creating new preset in Media Encoder, press
cmd+s (macOS) / ctrl+s (Windows)
it will do nothing visualy, but will force export presets to be updated in the Excalibur.

Sir_Ivan I see! The export preset fixed the problem.

I see, it's the API. No worries!

What about the macro commands in Excalibur? I haven't find a solution for them yet, they suddenly stop after the first command, I showed the event in the video

Thanks!

Sir_Ivan

Shadi oh, apologies, missed this one.
Do you have Numlock enabled?

Shadi

Sir_Ivan I honestly don't know, do I have to turn it off if it's active?

Sir_Ivan

Shadi yes, try to turn it off and test your user command.

Shadi

Hi Ivan, I turned it off but it doesn't work. Thanks for your help, let me know what I can provide to you for fixing this issue

Sir_Ivan

Shadi do you have anti-virus? Make sure spellcast_win.exe is whitelisted.

Shadi

Sir_Ivan Oh yes! I did it, it's whitelisted

Sir_Ivan

Try to change Keyboard Shortcut press to something else, e.g. ctrl+shift+K (to open Keyboard shortcuts menu in Premiere). Will it work?
