Affer Effects CS3 crashing

I'm getting the following error: After Effects error: unable to allocate space for a 5000 x 2395 image buffer. I'm exporting to either Adobe clips or quicktime.
I've tried changing the values in "Memory & Cache" and I'm still getting this error.
I have the CS3 master suite, After Effects Version 8.0.2.27 dva:2.0.0.127845
OS & video card:
Windows XP Version 2002, Service Pack 2
Intel(r) Core(TM)2Quad CPU @ 2.4 GHz
2.4 GHz, 2.00 GB of RAM
Video - NVIDIA GeForce 8800GTS
Resolution: 1920 x 1200
Color depth: 32 bit

FYI Found some problem fixes. The plug-in Cycore Spotlight did crash After Effects CS3. Deleting the OpenGL plug-in resulted in completion of renders.
Now Premiere Pro CS3 is crashing when importing the After Effects CS3 file. Message - "Application failed to return a video frame. Cancelling the operation."

  • Adobe After Effects CS3 crashes with Codecs such as Motion JPEG and Avid DnxHD

    Hey guys, I'm new here
    I'm having a problem with After Effects CS3 crashing with .mov files (exported from Adobe Premiere) with codecs such as Motion Jpeg A and Avid's DnxHD. Its driving me crazy.
    If I import a Motion Jpeg A file, AE crashes immediately. If I import a DnxHD file that works fine with Premiere, it seems to import ok. However, when I try to play it in AE it comes up as a plain white... thing. If I move the slider across it previews one or two frames before AE crashes. Its driving me crazy.
    AE works ok with H.164 and animation files.
    I'm reinstalled quicktime and Avids codecs, uninstalled ffdshow, disabled Open GL and multiprocessing, changed between 10bit and 8bit (whatever that is all about) with the dnxhd and I'm really stumped. If I can get Dnxhd working I'm fine with that. I thought I'd mention the Motion Jpeg A codec to see if they're a result of the same problem.
    I've also tried Avid's RGB packed Codec with the same results.
    I'm running Windows Xp 32 bit with 3gbs of ram, a GeForce 8600 gt with a Intel Pentium Duo Core Processor 2.00 GHZ.
    Can anyone help me please?

    I'm mistaken, Animation files don't work either!
    I tried that with no luck. I even tried a few more Quicktime codecs with the same results.
    Only H.164 and some png compressed .mov files seem to work. Very frustrating.
    I'm surprised thats the case - I am defintley due for an upgrade. Even though this system seems to work ok, struggling a little bit with HD .mov files but yeah, I've been planning a new system for a while.

    Thanks!

    I used CS3 Clean script and followed all the instructions for "Bigger problem-solving tools" and "Other Tips & Tricks" on http://generalspecialist.com/2007/02/troubleshooting-after-effects-7.asp.
    I'm still having the same problem but only StackHash_d742 is the problem none of the other extensions are showing up, after I attempt to run the program multiple times.
    Is there a way to track this file down?

  • After effects CS3 crash when importing

    Hello
    First sorry for my bad English :x
    For few weeks, my AE CS3 crash when I import something: .avi .mov .jpg ...
    I can open .aep, make compositions or create solids but importation always crash AE :s
    I have already uninstall/install AE 10 times and try at least 5 different versions of Quick time
    I hope you can help me

    I delete this folder:
    C:\Documents and Settings\"My Name"\Application Data\Adobe\After Effects\8.0\
    But after effect still crash :/
    I have opened an old project file, everything works fine except the preview: After effect crash:
    After Effect Debug Event
    After effect has encountered an error:
    [..\..\Src\Importer\FileImporter.cpp-1099]

  • Adobe After Effects CS3 Crashes

    When I try to run the program I get the following error:
    After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. See http://www.adobe.com/support/products/aftereffects.html for know issues. If you still can't resolve the issue, please contant Adobe Technical Support (2).
    ( 0 :: 42)
    I've been searching ages around the net to find a solution, thought I haven't came across one. I really hope someone can help me with this problem.
    It's very strange, because when I run the program as Administrator, the error doesn't occur. But when I import a video, open a project or something the same error pops up. Any idea's?

    I have a 512MB graphics card, 4 GB of RAM. My computer should be able to handle it. It can handle the thoughest games, so.
    Next to that, I also have Premiere Pro CS3, which used to work but doesn't anymore. When I start that up, it says Program doesn't work anymore and it shuts down automaticly.
    And about the last status message, the only thing I see it the square after effects splash thing. Saying it uses 1% of my 4GB, then the error pops up and nothing happends.
    Anyway, on the internet I read most of the time it has something to do with broken codecs and such. So I downloaded codec sniper, which says a few Premiere Pro codecs are broken. Can this have a link to After Effects not working?

  • After Effects CS3 Crashes Before Rendering is Complete

    Hello,
    I have a little dilemma with rendering. I have a 10 minute clip with effects added to it such as Topaz (Enlarge), Primatte Keyer Pro 4.0, Keylight (1.2), and a Spill suppressor. When I go to render in QuickTime, or Windows Media I get about 30 frames into the render and AF CS3 crashes. Ive tried PNG Sequence rendering but it only puts out about 30 or so frames and doesnt render any more. What can I do to get a complete render? I have 4 Gigs of ram on my computer, but After Effects only shows 2 Gigs. Can someone aid me with some suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Ed

    @ Robert, glad that you got it to work! For most i/o efficiency, ideally, you'd have AE (and your OS) running on one drive, your source material on a different drive, and your renders going to a third (different) drive.
    @ Ed, Windows XP can only assign a 2GB per-process unless the /3GB switch is enabled (do so at your own risk--may cause system instability)
    Multiprocessing features in AE will allow you to launch background processes of AE to use the extra available RAM, but this is more of an advantage in OS' that allow the motherboard to have more than 4GB installed (as the recommended allotment of RAM per instance is 2GB). You have to leave some RAM for your OS to operate, as well as any other apps you have running. As far as the clip rendering with all effects disabled, there might be one effect that is causing the crash. Try enabling them one at a time to see if you can find which one is responsible. Also, wmv footage can be heavily compressed. Try transcoding to a losslessly compressed codec, and using that instead (i.e. Quicktime Animation @ Best/Full quality).

    This happens every time i try to import any kind of file. And I'm running the trial version of AE btw.
    Now heres the things i have already tried.
    1)Reinstalling After Effects repeatedly.
    2)updating quick time
    3)Deleting the pref file
    4)removed any and all plug-ins
    5)Deleted the OpenGL file
    6)changed by screen resolution.
    7)closed down anti-virus programs
    8)Tried various ways of importing files, like drag and drop
    9)tried importing different files.
    10)Restarting my computer after attempting the all above^
    I have also been to the general specialist website already thank you very much.
    Edit: Now i have also tried uninstalling quick time and all of the video codec packs on my computer, this also didn't help (i did remember to restart afterwards)
    Edit: Also, i started a new thread because nothing in any of the other threads on this same or similar errors was at all helpful to me.
    edit3: i might also add that i have after effects 6.5 and it works just fine, though its much older.

  • Upon Launch After Effects Pro CS3 Crashes - Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

    I recently installed the 32 bit version of Adobe After Effects Professional CS3 (and later applied the 8.02 Update) on my Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit computer (Service Pack 1 - 12 GB RAM). It's installed (along with all of my other applications) on a 256 GB solid state drive.
    Shortly after launching the application (as it begins to load), the following message appears:
    After Effects Error: sfntread library error  (83 :: 4)
    It continues to reappear several times after clicking 'OK'.
    Then a final error message appears just before the program aborts its loading process and crashes:
    After Effects warning: unknown BIB error, sfntread library error  CT, 0
    I currently have the complete version of Adobe Design Premium CS5 also installed on my Windows system. No problems occurred with its installation and all of the programs within the suite launch and load properly as expected. The only other Adobe CS3 application that I also installed before installing After Effects CS3 was Premeire Pro CS3 which also installed, launched and loaded properly with no error messages appearing during the entire process.
    I did an initial search here on the forum using the error messages but did not find a solution that is workable with my particular operating system (64 bit) and the 32 bit After Effects Professional CS3 application.
    Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Here's a page that might be useful:

    Note that Windows 7 is not listed as an operating system supported for After Effects CS3:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/836/cpsid_83637.html#main_After_Effects_CS3_system_requirements
    The application was written, tested, and released before Windows 7 was available.

  • PowerPC G5 crashing with After Effects CS3

    I have been having "catastrophic" crashes, that is a crash in Mac OSX where the screen goes dark and I have to hold the power key to reset the system when using After Effects CS3 on my PowerPC G5. Also if I am listening to music in iTunes it just goes into a looping drone, (not a nice sound I can tell you).
    I was wondering if anyone else has had similar problems. I have been simply editing text in an AE comp and bang the system hangs. This only seems to happen when I am using After Effects. I have Gridiron Nucleo installed but I don't have it switched on, since it hasn't been playing too well. I also have a Blackmagic card and an internal raid system.
    I am running the latest version of Tiger on the G5 and have all software up to date. I might have to upgrade to Leopard as I just don't trust it anymore. This has happened enough times for me to now be totally on edge when I am using the system with After Effects CS3. I have a Mac Pro and this just works beautifully when running AE CS3
    Any thoughts would be welcome
    all the best
    richard

    Actually it has happened before and I don't think I was editing text. So I am not entirely sure that was the culprit. Put it this way I can run Photoshop, Illustrator, Cinema 4D, even After Effects 7 without these problems. However I have started to steer clear of the machine and use the Intel Mac solely as I don't really have time for crashes if you know what I mean. Also it is slow in comparison which isn't surprising but it really seems like treacle compared to the quad core mac.

  • Adobe After Effects CS3 won't install

    I have windows XP, and I used to have my version of Adobe After Effects CS3 installed. Then I uninstalled it because it kept crashing, but I forgot to deactivate it before I uninstalled it. Now every time I've tried reinstalling it, the installation goes completely fine until the last step, when it says:
    Summary:
    Successfully installed: 3 component(s):
    Adobe After Effects CS3 Template Projects and Footage
    Adobe After Effects CS3 Third Party Content
    Shared Components
    Errors: 2 component(s):
    Adobe After Effects CS3
         Component install failed
    Shared components
         component install failed
    I don't know how to fix this! I've tried multiple times at reinstalling it but each time without success. I've also ran the installation as administrator, and I've restarted my computer. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks a lot!

    Did you correctly uninstall the software? Are there other Adobe programs on the system? Sounds like there are other, newer versions that throw off the install. You need to uninstall those and reinstall them after you have installed CS3. Also simply delete the caps.db in C:\Program Files\Common Fiels\Adobe\caps. And for further diagnosis it might help to have a look at the install logs.

  • After Effects CC crashing on importing PSD (ae.blitpipe error message)

    Hi guys,
    I hope you can help me, Adobe Support couldn't so far.
    I recently installed After Effects CC on my MacBook Pro 13" (2012), 16GB RAM, Mountain Lion 10.8.4.
    I cannot import PSD files into AE. Everytime I try, it crashes with the following message:
    Zuletzt protokollierte Meldung: <140735306359168> <ae.blitpipe> <2> Making New Context
    It doesn't matter, what kind of PSD file I try to import. But to be sure, I created a new PSD file, 1920x1080, 72 dpi, RGB, just with a background, no effects, flattened, just that single background layer. It won't import, AE always crashes.
    I'm also running After Effects CS3 on that MacBook. Importing PSD files there works perfectly here.
    I tried these troubleshooting procedures:
    - trashing preferences
    - uninstalling every single Adobe Product
    - cleaning with the Creative Suite Cleaning Tool
    - Reinstalling just After Effects CC (still wont import PSD files at this stage)
    - Reinstalling Photoshop Elements 11, creating a new PSD file, still doesn't work.
    I don't know what else to do right now. I want to avoid reinstalling the whole operating system because I'm working on projects at the moment (with Final Cut Pro X).
    You have an idea?

  • 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 invoking plugin AEDynamicLinkServer

    Whenever I start After Effects CC 2014 a text bar comes up saying After Effects Error: Crash invoking plugin AEDynamicLinkServer.

    At first when i downloaded it it worked fine but when i added 2 plugins it stopped working
    Please Help

    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.
    Carefully follow the instructions here: Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • 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 CS3 - error: could not create 8935 x 9152 image buffer + slow

    Hello. I am receiving this error message every time i try render my 3min composition. it gets about 1/5 way through which takes about an hour. i have read the General Specialist troubleshooting guide and it has not helped yet.
    i am now rendering with Image Cache: Maximum RAM Cache Size at 10% and purging after every 20 frames (in secret prefs) - even if this works, the 3min render is estimated to finish in 9hrs. Does this sound normal, or acceptable? Is it possible i have a hardware deficiency? or something else lacking.
    My PC specs are: Intel Core 2 Quad 2.40GHz; 4GB RAM; Geforce 8800 GTS. Running XP 32bit SP3; After Effects CS3 (fully updated). I have updated my graphics card driver (180.48) and my mainboard chipset driver. My memory settings are as they appear in the http://generalspecialist.com/2006/11/avoiding-after-effects-error-could-not.asp guide, & I've dropped max RAM cache to 10%. My disk cache size is 10000MB and set to an empty 75GB 10000RPM Raptor HDD.
    The composition has 30 layers - mainly layers imported from PSDs and then animated with basic transform tools and some distortion effects (wave warp) to create 2D character animation. There are 6 pre-composed layers containing the same kind of PSD layers and animation. I try to render out to an uncompressed .avi in 720x576 with 15fps.
    Even before I noticed this rendering problem, After Effects runs painfully slowly. the composition monitor takes ages to refresh, even in the Quarter quality view mode i am forced to work in. and over the course of the day, on 3 occasions - the PC lagged after scrubbing through the timeline, froze, then Blue Screen of Death'ed before rebooting before i could even read the blue screen error.
    Please offer some assistance or ideas as to how i can move forward. I have tried to help myself with existing material online, but to no avail.
    Thanks,
    Nick.

    >Does this sound normal, or acceptable?
    It sounds normal within the realm of AE, but how acceptable it really is, is another matter entirely. ;-) As suggested, scaling the sources in PS would be one way, another one would be to chop up the large documents into manual tiles and parent them together. Based on how AE works, only tiles visible within the comp frame will be loaded, which should make the whole process more streamlined. That's assuming they are not 3D layers that need to be fully visible at any given point, of course. Even then, rendering to an image sequence is still advisable in case of crashes... Depending on what you actually do, you may also want to find a different way of dealing with your distortion effects. They considerably expand/ dilate image buffers for processing, complicating the matter further.
