AE CS6 Screen Flicker after every edit attempt

IN AE, CS6, every time I make the slightest change to a layer, the screen starts flikering. I see whatever is behind the AE window on the desktop, flickering through the AE interface, and it continues until I hit the Maximize or Restore button on the Windows bar at the top.
Also, its terribly slow to update every time I do anything. The program is practically unusable. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here's a link to a video
http://youtu.be/xJK6U7qWKTQ
My system information is below. I just installed this GeForce GTX 580 card.
BUT THE PROBLEM WAS VISIBLE ON MY PREVIOUS CARD, which was a punky little Geforce 8500GT.
I am able to see the GPU as a renderer, so I think its working as it should.
I'm not sure why its showing NO system memory. I have 8 GB installed, and have 6 GB allocated to AE.

There are two actions you can take immediately. Since the card is brand-new, double check on the NVidia web site to make sure the very latest drivers are installed. You should also double-check to make sure your version of AE is fully updated.
Since AE primarily uses your machine's procesor(s) and RAM, you should also go to Control Panel>System & Security>System and tell us about the procesor and installed memory. Please report back.

What's with the CLICKING noise after every edit?

In the latest version of GB, whenever I make a simple splice to a voice track, there's a CLICK artifact at the tail of every edit. In order to remove it, I have to zoom in and really play with the length of the clip to get rid of the click. This is REALLY annoying because I know I'm not cutting during an active waveform. In other words, there's "silence" when I make the cut, yet I keep getting an audible CLICK every time. The old version of GB did NOT do this. A clean cut was a clean cut. This is obviously a bug. Does anyone know of a workaround to avoid this artifact? Thanks!

Generally speaking it's:
  720x480 @ 29.97 fps for NTSC (or 23.976 for NTSC Film)
  720x576 @ 25 fps for PAL
Anamorphic video formats (e.g 16:9 aspect) is accomplished either by (rarely) scaling the image down and including black pixels at the top and bottom of the image, or (usually) by the setting a flag which tells the DVD player to stretch the pixels horizontally, scaling the image and automatically adding black at top and bottom if needed.

Mac Mini (mid 2010) horizontal screen flicker after new RAM installation

Hi, trying to help someone fix their mid 2010 mac mini here.
The model he bought came with 4GB of RAM; but he upgraded and put 8GB of RAM in. (the kingston variety KVR1066D3D4R7S/4GI 4GB DDR3-1066 I think)
Before the RAM there were no display problems, after installation small horizontal lines of flickering would appear around every minute or so. The screen is a Samsung 2333 Syncmaster connected via the mini display adaptor.
We've tried the display and adaptor in a Macbook Pro late 2008 and no problems so we think we've eliminated that variable. We've just gone through the screen calibration in Sys Prefs and we're still seeing if that's fixed it. We'll also try adjusting the refresh rate but we're doubtful.
Any ideas?

Apple support advised me to use RAM sold by Apple ($400 for 8GB).
I have 2x4GB hynix modules (by the way I had hynix stock modules in my mini) and if I mix 4GB(not Apple) and 1GB(Apple) it works just fine. It's obvious that 2 different modules won't work in dual channel BUT Xbench shows no difference in performance in any configuration. I tested different configurations: 2x4GB(not apple memory), 2x1GB(stock modules), 1Gb+4GB(stock and non stock) all of them show very similar performance +/- 3%.
This mean that mac mini doesn't use dual-channel memory mode (( There's also a chance that Xbench shows wrong results regarding RAM performance but to me, it seems very unlikely.

Blue screen flicker after security update

I just downloaded the recent security update this morning, and now about 5 minutes after starting up my macbook pro, the monitor flickers to blue for about 5 seconds or so, then flickers back to the desktop for less than one second, and flickers back to blue again. Multiple hard boots doesn't resolve the issue, but booting into safe mode keeps it stable.
I thought it might be an issue with having a Second monitor installed during the installation, since the issue didn't come up until after shutting down, unplugging the monitor and running the laptop on its own. After the second time rebooting, i pulled up the display prefs in system preferences and It pulled up two windows, one for the mbp display and a second for a display that was 1x1 pixels. I then pressed "detect displays" and it seemed to fix the problem. Then a couple of minutes later it did the blue flicker again.
I have a 15" mbp 2.2 core i7 with 8GB RAM that was purchased in june 2011 and is running 10.6.8.
Right now i'm not sure what to do next. Any help?

Hi,
I struggled with the same problem when the stage is squeezed just after the Default.png disappears and after less then a sec it stretches to the right aspect ratio.
The settings I'm using:
aspect ratio - landscape
fullscreen - true
auto orientation - false
After trying different things (using other png's and other solutions people offered) I think I finally found a fair solution. You can still get a very short flicker every now and then but for example when I tested my app I opened it 20 times and received a flicker only once. But yeah, till Adobe or someone else finds a better solution for this issue I think it's the best you can get.
So it's pretty simple, just set the scaling mode to no_scale by putting this line of code on your first frame:
this.stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
I'm still struggling with doing the same thing when using the document class. It seems like it takes more time till the line is fired and you'll always get the flicker for a very short time (although much shorter then before adding this line of code).
I hope it will do the trick for you. If I'll find a better solution or will find a better way to implement this solution with the document class I'll post again.

Screen flicker after updating to 10.6.8

Hello,
I have a MacBookPro6,2 (Mid 2010 model) that I recently updated to Mac OS X 10.6.8. After the update, I notice that the boot process isn't as seamless as it used to be, it basically goes like this:
1. Turn computer on, Apple logo and grey screen appears.
2. Progress indicator spins for about 20 seconds.
3. Screen turns black.
4. Screen fades to blue.
5. Screen fades to desktop.
It used to go like this:
1. Turn computer on, Apple logo and grey screen appears.
2. Progress indicator spins for about 20 seconds.
3. Screen turns blue.
4. Screen fades to desktop.
Is anyone else seeing similar behavior? I'm just curious to know if this is something new for this update or if there's something more going on that the update may have uncovered that I should be concerned about. Just seems a little odd.
Thanks!

Here are some videos I captured of the issue occurring so you can get a better idea of whats happening:

Why does iMovie 11 reload my project after every edit

I have had this problem from the beginning. I am working on a slide show style project (a la Ken Burns) now but this happened on smaller projects before. Typically I make a duration change to the slide and hit done. iMovie reloads the project. Sometimes it takes 1-2 seconds. Other times it acts like it is loading the project for the first time (at least 10 seconds). It's about 50/50 for doing both. Is it supposed to reload every time. I looked in Preferences (and other menus) and can't find anything to adjust. This slows my editting process to a crawl. HELP.

I think you have the wrong forum, this is for mobile devices, hence iOS Apps; I am trying to get it moved.
But as a quick answer, your final video may render out to more then 2 Gb, and your drives may not be able to handle that size files.
Check that the drive you are saving to is formatted as MacOS, and not Fat.
Even if the origonal videos are 731 mb, you may have chosen to re-compress at a higher rate.
Another idea would be to choose a lower compression, thus a smaller file.

When using rogers.yahoo mail, I need to refresh my screen after every 2-3 actions.

While using Rogers.yahoo mail in FireFox, the screen freezes after every 2-3 actions (read email, delete email, respond to email, move email to folder etc.). I have to refresh the screen and then it goes along for another 2-3 actions and I have to refresh again. Very frustrating. I opened the same email account in Google Chrome and IE and it works fine there. This started happening yesterday.
In perhaps an unrelated thing, I get this error message every day, once, when I start up my PC for the past 2 months:
Microsoft.NET Framework
Unhanded exception has occurred in your application If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. Unable to load DLL 'hppatusg01.dll': The specified module could not be found (Exception from HRESULT:0x8007007E)

No problem.
If the above does not fix the issue, '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
Thank you.

Blue Screen of Death every approx 20 minutes after upgrading boot camp

** This is a repost from another topic forum-- moving it to correct forum**I upgraded my mac book pro with the recommended updater for Boot Camp 2.1 and quicktime/ITunes. As soon as I did this my computer began to crash with a blue screen of death every 20 minutes or so. It would reboot and say a serious error had occurred and report it to Microsoft. In every other way it was functioning ok, but since it occurred every 20 minutes, I now have erased my boot camp partition and resurrected it from a WinClone file (boy am I glad I backed it up). I've seen a few other people having this problem-- has anyone found a solution? I'm back to boot camp 2.0 and running fine. Amount of ram is 2GB and I'm running service pack 2 of Windows XP professional. Also I have Norton Antivirus on the Windows drive.
Mark

So I backed up my boot camp partition using Winclone and then opened up the MacBook Pro with Windows XP as the operating system. I turned off Norton Antivirus (I thought the more basic system would have less potential interactions with other systems) and downloaded bootcamp 2.1 again. Installed it and then restarted and then turned Norton back on (Norton AV has actually been a pretty stable version from my recent experience). My external keyboard is now connected and so far so good-- the computer has not been giving me the BSOD every 20-30 minutes. I remembered from long ago-- on the mac side-- I was always told to turn off virus software before installing any new software-- maybe that's what it needed? I will continue to update.
I never got a blue screen while downloading updates to windows. I've only gotten BSOD after that initial attempt to install Bootcamp 2.1 with antivirus software turned on. And I'm backed up so I can go back to version 2.0 if necessary.

Screen flicker/ strobbing after transfer frm FCE to iDVD

Help!
I'm in need of some advice - after editing a large video project on Final Cut Express, then burning a disc through iDVD there is VERY noticeable screen flicker/ strobing in all shots with movement i.e PANNING & TILTING.
When viewing this material in FCE there is no noticeable issues, but after playing the DVD (and watching on a CRT TV) the problem occurs.
I have tried to fix this by applying the Video/De-Interlace filter, but with no effect....any advice is most welcome
n.d I have created various other DVD's but the issues above were largely unnoticeable
The footage was shot on a Sony V1E 25fps 1080i
Laptop spec is: Mac OS X 10.5.8

The export process to iDVD sounds OK.
Do you know the option for quality iDVD was set to handle?
There are three in later versions.
These options affect quality.
I'd be thinking the size of the Project may be affecting the encoding within iDVD depending on the option used at the time.
Have you tried the Professional quality option in iDVD?
Ask in the iDVD forum for detaIls.

Mac screen goes black every 2-3 minutes, returns after 1 second, Mavericks

My MAC, updated to Mavericks, screen goes black every 2-3 minutes, for one second, then returns. Has anyone experienced this? How should I correct it?

SOLVED!!!!!
SO I did some more digging around and read ATI cards seem to overheat easily. I knew the fan was working, but after closer inspection I realised there was ALOT of built up dust on the card and clogging the fan and airflow. Blew it out with alot of compressed air, stuck it back in the Mac and BAM...no black screens. I tested it by streaming 6 video sources...doing 2 screen captures at once as well as watching a HD movie in fullscreen. Did all this for 30 minutes and no crashes. I also downloaded an app to monitor the temps inside the computer and the expansion bay stays at 41 degrees. No clue what it was before but obviously it was hotter than that. So my problem is solved! Funny that 10.7.5 made the card work harder. I wonder if its off loading some CPU stuff to the GPU for processing more than 10.7.4 so its just working a bit harder and so it heats up faster....

Edit screen explodes after 10.6 update

Trying to apply edits in full screen mode after my 10.6 update causes the screen to completely wig out on me. The edits seem to work normally on the photo itself but the display will go anywhere from slightly fuzzy to completely illegible. I can back out of full screen and enter back in but the display is still very hit and miss.
Anyone know a fix to this? I've already sent Apple a feedback notice.

This has affected a number of users and currently there is no fix. Have you tried editing in Window mode?
Regards
TD

Why does my screen flicker every 10-15 seconds?

Why does my screen flicker every 10-15 seconds?

like a blinking? do you have the late 08 MBP?
if so go to system, energy saver, and select better performance. Your screen should be flicker free.

CS6 to CC2014 after effects video edits getting moved around

Hi,
We are having a weird problem after moving our whole department to CC2014 from CS6. Once we bring open a CS6 project in After Effects CC2014 all the video edits get thrown off by anywhere from 300 to 18000 frames in the actual edit layer window (in the composition the edit cuts are still in the same place). We are shooting on Canon 305XF's using the 50 mbps .MXF format.
When I open the same project in CS6 and CC2014 and look at the footage setting in CS6 the clip says 9403 total frames in the interrupt footage dialog. But when I open the exact same project in CC2014 it says 83160 frames. If anyone has seen this issue can you point me in the right direction.
I really need to have an easy fix for this issue as it is going to effect about 100 large older projects.
Thank you
Keith

Yeah it is looking like a footage interpretation to me as well but wish there was some kind of auto fix.
The broken process is opening the CS6 .aep with CC2014 .aep.
What will work is opening the original footage edits that I made in Premiere Pro CS6 in Premiere Pro CC2014. Then I save the Premiere Pro CC2014 and import into the .aep CC2014 that was had all the edits that went funky. Since the composition were still the same I was able to replace the old broken edit compositions with the new CC2014 saved versions and now all the footage is correctly imported.
The main problem with this process is how many projects I would have to do this to would make it a total pain. As well I am very worried about such a manual process mistakes being made.

Screen shots off every few minutes after upgrade to 10.6.3

After upgrading to 10.6.3 my screen shots off every few (ca. 5) minutes when I hit either the mouse button or any key. The screen comes back by itself after about 2 minutes, the rest of the iMac continues to work (print jobs finalize, keybaord entries are recognized etc.).
Is this a known problem of 10.6.3 or is it just coincidence and simple a HW problem?

Try giving more details...was it any specific key; did you click the mouse in any place in particular? Was the mouse cursor in a corner of the screen (Hot Corners)?
You can try a Hardware Test to see if it actually is hardware-related. But if you've not seen it before, that's unlikely.
If you can't fix it, you can try to re-install 10.6.3 from the Combo update.

Screen flicker stops after Leopard upgrade...

I have been suffering from the dreaded screen flicker affliction for about 3 months now on my Nov. 07 MB c2d. I upgraded to Leopard yesterday, without any issues at all by the way, and my screen appears completely normal with no flicker at all. Hopefully this will last.
Is it possible Tiger was the cause of the flicker and not the inverter like so many had theorized?
In any case, there may be hope for all those afflicted with that annoying problem...:)

Brand new MacBook Pro with Leopard and brand new 23 inch cinema display… I just saw some very noticeable screen flicker on the desktop picture. It was most noticeable when I had lots of windows open and could only see about an inch or so of the desktop at the top. It lasted maybe 5–10 minutes and stopped.
