# Media Encoder — Adobe ExtendScript API

> Adobe Media Encoder 2027, generated 2026-11-10. 100 entries: 98 objects, 2 collections, 0 enumerations.

Every object has a page and a Markdown twin at the same path:
`https://www.indesignjs.de/indesignapi/media-encoder/<Object>.md` — for example [AMEBatchItemCreationFailedEvent](https://www.indesignjs.de/indesignapi/media-encoder/AMEBatchItemCreationFailedEvent.md).
Fetch the Markdown, not the HTML: same content, a fraction of the tokens.

## Files

- [media-encoder.d.ts](https://www.indesignjs.de/indesignapi/media-encoder/media-encoder.d.ts): TypeScript declarations, self-contained — the classes, the enumerations and the global names (app, alert, $). Drop it into a project and the language server answers without any lookup. It needs a jsconfig.json next to the scripts: `{ "compilerOptions": { "lib": ["es5"], "types": [], "checkJs": false }, "include": ["**/*.js", "**/*.d.ts"] }`. Without it the editor loads the DOM library, and Document, Event, Text and Window resolve to the browser versions. ScriptUI is not in this file.
- [media-encoder-scriptui.d.ts](https://www.indesignjs.de/indesignapi/media-encoder/media-encoder-scriptui.d.ts): the same plus ScriptUI, for scripts with a dialog. Nine classes carry a name in both models (Window, Button, Event, Events, Group, ListBox, Panel, RadioButton, StaticText); here they are the ScriptUI ones, and references to the product classes read `any`. Use either this file or the plain one, never both — TypeScript holds one meaning per global name.
- [api.json](https://www.indesignjs.de/indesignapi/media-encoder/api.json): the whole model as JSON. Large — page through it, do not paste it.
- [index.html](https://www.indesignjs.de/indesignapi/media-encoder/index.html): every object, linked.
