AE CC 2014 Corrupted and Glitched frames when rendering to Quicktime

Ever since upgrading to the newest version of After Effects, I've been getting corrupted and glitched frames when rendering videos with a Quicktime holder. My normal workflow is rendering the video straight out of AE, but it also happens when rendering with Adobe Media Encoder, or even while using the "BG Renderer" script for AE that renders from the terminal. It happens whether I have multiprocessing enabled or not.
The corruption differs depending on what codec I'm using, but in the Cineform Codec it shows up as green frames:
On DNxHD they show up as Red frames (don't have a screencap of this one but you get the idea).
Using the QT Animation Codec they show up as static or distortion:
I have not found a codec that does not become corrupted when encased in the QT holder. Image sequences render out fine, and Cineform with an AVI holder renders out fine.
Even more strangely, I can fix the problem if I link the AE composition to Premiere, then render the QT file out through Premiere itself. The fact that Premiere calls and renders the Comp fine but AE does not, makes me think this is a bug in AE's treatment of Quicktime rather then a driver/system incompatibility on my end. But I'm certainly willing to try any suggestions the community might have for me =]

Audio advanced by 3 frames when rendered

Hi,
Thanx in advance for your help.
I'm using CS5 Production Suite.
Cameras are:
Sony FX1000
Sony AX2000
Sony V1U
Sony SR11
Canon 7D
Sequences are created using an XDCAM HD 1080 30p preset.
I'm shooting live music videos & all videos are shot in 30P (most tracks at 1920 x 1080 with the FX1000 at 1440 x 1080, all at 48 Khz stereo).
The H.264 preset has been slightly modified to render at 1280 x 720 30P, audio is shot and renedered at 48 Khz stereo.
In the editing window things are synched perfectly. When I export to an MP4 file using the H.264 preset the audio gets rendered out of synch advanced by 3 frames. If I go into the editing window and delay the audio by 3 frames it renders the output file in perfect synch. This is true for on-camera audio tracks, multi-camera edited audio tracks and for tracks with imported audio wave files produced in Cubase by the sound engineer.
Can someone help me understand why this renders out of synch?
Thanx,
Mel

Thank you Harm for your help. When I use the new
item icon to create a new sequence the XDCAM presets match the parameters of
what my cameras shoot more closely than any others. I did take the base
preset for the XDCAM 1080 30p and modify it a bit to better match my cameras. But the only mismatch I have is that the FX shoots 1440x1080 1.333 pixels and the others shoot 1920x1080 1.0 pixels. But that's a video issue and I assumed it didn't affect the audio output. I've tried other settings, like the ones worked under CS4, but they produced jerky video and audio in CS5.
May I ask which preset you would suggest based on the cameras and parameters of the footage?
Thanx,
mel

CPU and operating temps when rendering in FInal Cut

I had some issues in Final Cut today, and had to start a project over. I noticed render times seem to have gotten slower. I don't think it's just me, I remember my computer rendering clips much faster than it did after the crash. I also noticed the fans constantly blowing at full bore when rendering. I decided to monitor temperatures during the rendering process. The CPU temperature immediately starts to climb. It averages between 85-89 degrees Celsius during the rendering process. Is this normal for it to get this hot during rendering? I have read many different things.

I'm using FCP 7. It seems like my CPU has been running warm overall at times. I hope things are alright with it.

Premiere Pro on brand new MacBook retina 11,3 2014 crash and glitch

Ok, I've read a lot of post about the CUDA compatibility on new MacBookPro, and i don't have installed and don't use the cuda driver but only the OpenCL,
I have the MacBook Pro 11,3, 16GB Ram with NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB and 2,8 GHz Intel Core i7 Yosemite 10.10.2 installed on a 1TB APPLE SSD
It is brand new and i have only my AdobeCC installed;
Now I think it's not normal to see glitch on screen or jerky video during the video playback and crash of my premiere pro (2014.2 release, 8.2.0 (65) Build) or I miss something about the Yosemite compatibility?
PS. working with normal 1080p files, DSLR or similar not over 50 Mbps 422
Thanks!
Vito.

Yosemite sometimes has problems, often related to "default" permissions needing to be changed

Gaussian Blur effect causing black frames when rendered.

I am only using one effect in my video, its the gaussian blur, and in the previewer it shows the effect being applied, however it shows random black frames in the previewer, I thought this was just a random previewer issue.
I then rendered the video but when the blur effect is being applied it is showing random black frames in the video.

Talked to customer support and found out that it was a duplicate Gaussian Blur effect on the same frame causing it to have some issues sigh*
But thank you for the info about the media cache, I did not know about that.

Premiere Pro 2014 MultiCam forgets cut points when rendering (Adobe please help!!)

I have started using multi-cam and notice that almost always when using multi-cam the rendered results are incorrect - with many camera selections forgotten or flipped to exact opposite!
Very frustrating - especially since you discover after render!!
Many times when I select Camera A at some point and then later go to beginning of sequence - many of the selections have been reversed with reversal again at clip transitions - resulting in exact opposite of what I selected or random changes. Locking the tracks does not prevent this. It seems to be overriding my choices based on some program logic!!
This is with latest Premiere Pro 2014.1 {8.1 build)
Useless feature if you cannot get it to render your selections but rather random selection
Wish there was a manual! And not just incomplete video tutorials that are teaser for some associate's paid training (of unknown value).
Or at least quick forum / support response from Adobe representatives so I can be productive with the tooling.
Another week of no answers and I will have to recreate in FCP X where multi cam seems to work fine.
Not the best for brand loyalty, eh?
Please help

I'm thinking it might be operator error on this one. Here's a process that works every time.
1. Create a sequence matching the specs of your footage.
2. Add your clips.
3. Sync manually.
4. Create a second sequence matching the first.
5. Nest the first sequence into the second.
6. Right click on that nested sequence and choose Multi-Camera>Enable
7. Turn on the Multi-camera view in the Program Monitor.
8. Play the sequence in real time, switch angles using keyboard shortcuts. If you make a mistake, leave it for later.
9. When you're done with the first pass in real time, go back to the normal view in the Program Monitor.
10. Move through the sequence a second time, cut by cut, tweaking as necessary with the Rolling Edit tool (shortcut N).
On a side note, 2014.2 is actually the current version. You should update.

Keynote creates separate audio and image file when exporting to quicktime, how can you create one unique file?

I have a Kenote 09 presentation with a presentation soundtrack, when I export it to Quicktime two files are created one with audio and one with video.
¿Is there a way to have this be just one file or to combine this files to have one video+audio file?
I was able to put them together with iMovie, but the image looses quality.
Thanks

Thanks Gary
I tried fixed timing but I needed different timing for each slide. But I did manage to resolve using the following.
Since the audio was just music I first set both Input and Output sound setting in preferences to use Soundflower instead of internal mic and speaker, then played the presentation while recording audio so that the music would be recorded. And finally exported using Recorded Timing. This way the output was one unique file!
Good day

After Effects CC 12.2.1.5 "mixing" frames when rendering

So this is the most extreme bug I've ever seen because it makes AE CC absolutely unreliable:
I am rendering an Apple prores File as usual. Just converting to 16 bit an rendering to Apple prores 444.
Just somewhere in the middle of the clip there is a frame that doesn't belong there. It comes from two or three seconds before
which means it is duplicated and placed in between other frames. This looks like a very bad mistake!
Of course everything is fine in the original clip I am rendering from!
So I need to check every rendering because of this and if there is a mistake I had to re-render again and again and again.
I have been working with AE for years now and never had something similar until the last version of AE CC.
AE CC 12.2.1.5
Mac Pro
12-core
32 GB RAM
OSX Lion 10.7.5
Sonnet Raid DX800

Please submit a detailed bug report here, and mention that you're willing to send us the assets that show the problem:

Someone will respond. Let me know if you haven't gotten a response by the end of next week.

When is it important to use "recompress all frames" (when saving)?

When is it important to use / check the box "recompress all frames" (when saving as quicktime movie)? And why?

If you've rendered a sequence and want it to re-render the video into the same codec as the sequence. You almost never need to do it.

Brush Tool and Layer frames on the timeline ?

Hey.
Im making a animation.
So far i only have 2 frames.
I made my first main frame. Which went fine. However when i made my second frame and used the brush tool. The drawing goes on both the 1st and 2nd frames when i only want it to be on the 2nd frame.
Hope that is clear.
I there anyway to stop this.

I think my timeline thing is broken
doesnt matter...

Stuck and skipping frames

We made AIR video player using Flash CS5. But it is stuck and skipping frames when I try to play a video.
CPU usage directly goes up to 60, 70%. It gets stuck and skipping frame.
Video Format : h264 , 720p
It gets stuck and skipping frames no matter we try to play the video either by our player or by Adobe Media Player.
Most of our customers don’t have modern super computer so how can we solve this problem?
We made the test on pc with HP-Dual core CPU.
EncryptVideo.level = High
The videos which hadn’t been encrypted are stuck too.
Thanks
Dalai

Hi Dalai,
Does this happen to all of your h.264 contents? What component do you use to do the playing? Can you try to use OSMF(http://www.osmf.org/)?
Can you try to play this content with http://drmtest.adobe.com/SVP/SampleVideoPlayer_FP.html also?

AV sync problems when rendering Quicktime in PE 8

I have a simple problem when rendering to Quicktime format fromPremere Elements 8: The AV sync goes out of whack.
I have tried rendering:
(a). To MPEG - output is fine.
(b). To WMV - output is fine.
(c). MOV - av sync errors
I am assembling about five clips. The first clip plays fine. The AV sync problems starts at the second clip - the audio is a good 3 seconds or so ahead of the video.
Everything is fine in the editing window.
I am running in Windows 7. To make sure it is not the player, I have played the quicktime output in Windows Media and itunes and the same problem is in both.
Has anyone seen this issue?
Thanks.

Hi Steve,
Sorry for the confusion. It a sensible suggestion to identify the input formats and output formats and I would most appreciate your inputs to this issue because I admit that I am really struggling here to get a workflow going.
Input formats:
1. MJPEG 1280x720P at 24 frames per second (from a Panasonic Lumix Camera)
2. WMV 1280x720P at 24 frames per second from output of other programs (which only support wmv output at High def output)
3. MPEG2 1280x720P at 24 frames per second (and sometimes 25 frames per second) from other sources
Target output formats are:
1. Blu-Ray
2. MP4 container format @ 1280x720P for playing on my Apple TV
3. DVD (ordinary plain PAL DVD at 720x576P at 25 frames per second)
My goal is have Pre Elements 8 Project settings in High Def and then to simply target all three outputs from one project so that I do not have to redo all of the projects with different project settings.
Workflow is in two stages:
Step 1 is to create one project for each Chapter and save to disk: The inputs are from all three input formats that I identified above (High Def - MJPEG, WMV, and MPEG2). I would like to edit, mix the audio, and then save each chapter to disk. The format in which I save this is preferably some kind of high def format that can be edited easily at a later time.
Step 2 is to create the Project that is used to assemble each chapter for final output: This is the project where I put in Chapter marks, create menus, etc. The target outputs from this chapter are Blu Ray (high def), AppleTV (high def), and PAL DVD (Standard def).
In all cases, I set up my Project Settings as HDV-AVI for internal rendering because all inputs are high def and most target outputs are high def.
Issues that I am dealing with:
1. I cannot figure out the best export format to go from Step 1 to Step 2. HDV-AVI doesn't seem to be available as an export format. Basically, I am looking for an export format that puts the least strain on resources when they are read in for Step 2 and retains the highest quality.
2. Most of my inputs are 24 frames per second but the internal rendering for Pre Elements 8 seems to be 25 frames per second. Frame rate conversion can be quite tricky and can put significant strain on resources, but it is not clear if this is straining Pre Elements 8 or not. It does seem to be. I am happy to convert my files into a format that puts the least strain on Pre Elements 8 internal rendering and yet produces the best output.
Note: If you ask - why do I do this in two steps? It is because I am always putting a strain on system resources when operating in high def. Unless I am careful, I get a message that Pre Element is "low on resources" followed by a crash shortly thereafter. I have Win7 32 bit, 4 GB RAM, no other programs running, all drivers updated with the most recent version (yes - even the NVIDIA driver) so there really isn't anything else that I can do in this area.
So I am looking for suggestions in the following areas:
1. An alternative workflow that produces the three high def outputs with the three high def inputs defined above that doesn't cause Pre Elements to continually go low on resources and crash.
OR
2. A recommendation for a high def format that puts minimal strain on Pre Element resources?
Thanks!

Why are my itunes-synced songs and pictures are incomplete (corrupted) when transfered to my iPhone? E.g. songs start from somewhere in the middle and glitch continiously.

Why are my itunes-synced songs and pictures are incomplete (corrupted) when transfered to my iPhone? E.g. songs start from somewhere in the middle and glitch continiously. This is a big problem which means all my windows -> iphone pictures are half black or glitched on the iphone. Also my songs are completely glitched. I have tried resyncing and different USB-ports.

Same problem on Iphone 4s AND windows 7. Really annoying that I can't have any music on my brand NEW device.

Green frames when exporting from CC 2014

Hello. I just updateted to the newest edition of premiere pro(aswell as all the other CC software i have installed which includes phoshop,speedgrade,audition,ame, and after effects). So the versions of the software are the very latest.
My computer is late2013 macbook pro with nvidia graphics card, and i have all the system updates installed, nothing special going on.
Heres the issue:
When exporting the project, i get random green frames, full green frames. Complitely randomly, no pattern whatsoever.
My workflow have been this: Footage shot with two Sony cameras and i have encoded all the materials to mxf format with one step earlier AME version. I started the project with one step earlier premiere, and i have already done 19 out of 23 sequences that project contains, no problem at all with earlier version of ame&premiere. Now i updated to the latest 2014 cc and these green frames started to pop out randomly. I have not used any plugins or effects, only premieres own threeway colorcorrector and bightness&contrast. Parts of the clip have transparent black video as textbackground with crop effect applied and basic textlayer from premieres own text editor. I have exported few grpahics from aftereffects (both the lates and the one step earlier version) to proress 4444 format as RGP+alpha. And im exporting with using youtube SD widescreen 360p settings, nothing changed. Again, everything worked perfectly before update.
things i have tried sofar:
delete caches both manually and from each software
normal boot
pram reset
safeboot
update check
export XML from 2014 cc and import to earlier premiere -> no luck, things got messed up somehow
made a copy of both project files, i compared and changed some version number from 27 -> 26 so i could open the project in earlier premiere -> no luck (this worked back in cs6 time when i had to import cs6 project to cs5.5)
Kinda running out of time, so rest of the night im going to spend re-editing those sequences i have done today with newer version of premiere. Will adobe pay for me for these extra hours, i think my client wont approve one extraediting day(night becaus of the schedule, these must be ready tomorrow with no green frames) because of software problem?
Ask anything you want, i'm 100% sure this is not user error since everything was fine with one step earlier premiere version. I will copy&paste this to the bugreport too.
Thanks

Temporary solution for this was "export xml" after all. I had to disable all graphics and textlayers and delete colorcorrections, and flatten multicam, so i had to redo all grading ja graphics stuff in older premiere after importin FCP xml. But got the work done in time. Won't use cc 2014 in near future unless someone figures out what is wrong with green frames. (well actually now im exporting from older AME, will she if the green frames pops out there too, wouldn't be too much surprised....)

Getting red frames when export from cc 2014.2 codec used panasonic mxf format long GOP 50p. If any solution please help on that

getting red frames when export from cc 2014.2 codec used panasonic mxf format long GOP 50p. If any solution please help on that

i solve my red frame problem. originally my project was done in premiere pro cc 2014.2 & i render in Encoder cc 2014. in newer version i get lots of red frames. i complain a lot to adobe customer support . they said they know the issues but they couldn't solve. I was so tired from adobe customer support. one of the worse customer services i had. My friend got the mac pro & e got premiere pro cc 7.2 version. i convert all my footage mxf to mp4 in encoder cc 7.2 version and i succeed. i don't get any red frames.
So i think the problem is in adobe encoder cc 2014.2 version. newer version.
