After Effects error: crash occured when invoking...

I get this error: After Effects error: crash occured when invoking rendering plugin "AE_openGL" when I have videos on the timeline and I am scrolling through them.
I run Windows Prof 7, 2.67 gigahertz Intel Core i7 920 Multi-core (4 total), 12 GBs Ram, NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT (2x).  My system is fast.  I saw one suggestion to turn off openGL. How should I set up my preferences to avoid this?
Thanks.

OpenGL should work even with SLI off. Yes, you lose some performance, but for AE's limited use of these features, it should be neglectible. If for some reason you still get crashes, then you may need to push a few otehr knobs and levers in the driver settings or install a new7 different driver right away. i just cannot offer you a blanket solution that would work from a distance. OpenGL settings are delicate, so you'll have to invest some time in your own experimentation...

  • After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in "particular"

    Hi, I was trying to following the Kramer's tutorial "The Ring" in AFx (http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials/the_ring/), that involves the use of Trapcode Particular, and all went well..
    Then I've customized it, not drawing a circle, but a square, and after a while AFx started to crash very frequently reporting this message:
    After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effects plug in "particular"
    this happens only when I work on the compositions with particular plug-in.
    I'm working on my "old" iMac OSX version 10.4.11
    2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 duo
    1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    with CS3, open GL disabled (because not supported)
    thanks for any help!

    I'm guessing that you're running out of RAM.
    The system requirements state 2GB as a minimum (I know the page links to CS4, but it seems the CS3 one's aren't available).
    Have you made sure to run all necessary updates?
    I know you've been able to work with 1GB for awhile, but you've probably been pushing that envelope.
    What are your comp specs (frame size, frame rate, etc...)?
    Are you trying to view at full res, or lower?
    Have you modified your RAM preferences?

  • After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in "Looks" URGENT!

    My name is Tyler and i'm a Mult-Media Editor in training. Just recently meaning just this project i've been getting this error "After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in “Looks”." every time i try to render. If i try to remove the clip where it messes up and replace it with another it will just mess up in another spot.
    Screen Shot Here:http://gyazo.com/794429fd1091973c8a296a27d2af6fab.png

    I've read other forums and watched tutorials. I've already done the following. (Not in order used)
    1. Downgrade Magic Bullet Looks from 1.4.3 to 1.4.2 (Didn't Work)
    2. Upgrade Magic Bullet Looks to MBL 2.0 from Magic Bullet Suite 11 (Didn't Work)
    3. Uninstall my gfx card and re-install it with the newer version (Didn't Work)
    4. Reset AE preferences by pressing alt+shift+ctrl on the shortcut (Didn't Work)
    5. Change render settings from H.264 -> .AVI (Didn't Work)
    6. I've deleted "AE_OpenGL" from my After Effects folder (Didn't Work)

    I've never had this problem before and hope that someone has a solution to this problem... if so please post an answer. I don't know if its because i put the plug in on all of my clips and then made an adjustment layer with another Magic Bullet Looks or if it's my clips fault but i just dont know what to do.
    -Tyler

    It sounds like Looks is only crashing on this project. If that is so then it's most likely a problem with one of your video clips. Either there's a corrupted frame or some other codec glitch that's throwing the errors. I'd suggest replacing footage items with temporary footage. You could even use solids. Replace one at a time, then undo, until you find the footage that's causing the crash. Then either re-compress that footage to another codec or replace it.
    If Looks is crashing on every type of footage then you need to pursue other options that are more system related.

    Since you seemed to miss it, I'll just directly give you the link provided on that thread, but I really recommend that you carefully read that thread about the issue that you're facing. It inlcudes information about conflicts with ATI drivers.

  • After effects error: crash occured while invoking effect plug-in

    Hey, im using after effects cs6 and everytime i try to change something to my shatter effect (or other effects, mostly shatter) i get the error: after effects error: crash occured while invoking effect plug-in. Please help

    Well I only have version CS3, however I got the same error while trying to open Knoll Light Factory plug-in.  I tried several times and it never worked.  I searched and found a couple of 'fixes' but they didn't work (for me).
    What did fix my problem, I looked inside the After Effects directory, specifically at C:\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS3\Support Files\(PCI)\Setup\...  - inside this directory is the file 'Setup.exe'.  This setup file is the Adobe After Effects Third Party Content Installer.   I ran this setup file, after it finished doing it's thing, and without rebooting, I opened AE, loaded a project and went to Effects and the KLF plug-in.   I chose it and it opened perfectly without any glitches or errors.  I'm not saying it will work for everyone but it did for me. Not sure if there is any difference in versions as well, like I said, I'm using CS3.  I have since rebooted a couple of times and no problems with AE or the plug-ins (fingers-crossed). 

  • After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking plug-in Classic 3D

    I am Adobe After Effects CS6 11.0.4 on a windows 7 64 bit PC with 16gb of ram.  I encounter this error: crash occurred while invoking plug-in Classic 3D when rendering. There was a similar thread stating there exists a fix for this issue for After Effects CC 12.2.1 . That fix does not work for version 11.0.4  Does a similar fix exist for version 11.0.4? Or can we have this fix created for version 11.0.4?

    The Adobe download site for AE shows that I am on the latest version.  I also ran the check updates from AE. It also stated that I am on the latest version.  (Adobe - After Effects : For Windows ) What is the latest version that you are referencing?

  • After Effects error:crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in"scripting"

       I made up a bat file with 8 commands like"  afterfx -m -r ...." .
       It will startup 8 AEs and render my work. But when I double the commands with starting 16 AEs,7-8 of them are carshed,says "crash occurred while invoking   effect plug-in"scripting" .
       And "After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was:<2312><ASL.ResourceUtils.GetLanguageIDFromRegistry><0>Unable to obtain the User 'Language' registry key at: Software\Adobe\After Effects\10.0\Defaulting to 'en_US'."
       I am confused for a few days. Need help here.
    Warm regards 

    Good question, but I would suspect that the previous instances simply never correctly unload and/or parts of the auxiliary services like dynamiclinkmanager or qt32server remain active/ loaded, ultimately causing a conflicht or simpyl chewing up all your memory...

    Hi,
    I'm not a 100% sure this is the right answer but here is thoughts on why After Effects is crashing on you. Its crashing because of you not having a good "graphic card" on your computer. So if you don't what you need to do to stop it from crashing is In the Composition panel of after effects (the main panel) there a "lighting bolt" icon  if you click on that icon to toggle it open you'll a menu & select this in the menu "Adaptive Resolution-OpenG1 Off" this will stop it from crashing it did for me. Hope this helps you or anybody else who may be having this problem....

    Hi Szalam
    Sorry it took so long to reply. These past days I was hesitant to do the System Restore so I had my brother-in-law to help me out today. Unfortunately he wasn't able to the Restore because it doesn't go back to where the date I wanted to go back to which was in January 19th when it was working. I was too late. So he re-installed the program and it seems to be working again. Thank you so much for helping me with this problem, I appreciate it a lot ^__^

I haven´t tried other formats yet. I not very well aware of the settings and what tehy do in ae. So it is very possible that I have something wrong there. Are the settings that effect this error those in composition setting-> anvanced. Can you please explain me what these settings do and how should I adjust them to try to get rid of the error? I would be very happy.

    Do Not Delete program files that have been installed with an installer. BAD idea. Use the uninstaller. If you have already made the mistake or the uninstaller will not work use the Adobe Cleaner Tool then re-install from the latest build.

    Has After Effects worked before? If it's worked before, what changed between then and now? Have you installed something or updated something?
    What is the exact version number of your After Effects? And before you say, "CS6", I mean the exact version number, such as 11.0.4
    What are the specs of your machine?
    And any other information you think might be useful to know.
