After Effects change size of the Movie after rendering mp4

Hi,
I created a new composition and wanted to render it as an mp4 file. The composition has a size of 1500px x 1000px, after rendering, the mp4 file has a size of 750px x 576px - everthing is distorted. I don't know what happened, because everything was prechecked because the size matters.
Is someone know what happend and what I can do, to prevent such a mistake? (it is my first After Effects project ever - I'm a nube)
Thank you Dan

mp4 is a compression format based on specific blocks of pixels and the legal sizes are set by the codec, there is nothing you can do except pick another codec if you must have 1500 X 1000 as a final size. Why did you pick that size? If you must deliver an mp4 then you should be working with standard sizes for your compositions and they should be square pixels... Always square pixels for mp4.

  • After Effects Changes my Clips FPS from 29.97 to 25? Help :)

    Hey guys,
    I am trying to edit a video and when ever i import clips that are 29.97, (check other programs and they state they are also 29.97 fps), after effects changes the 29.97fps clips in 25fps clip, i am clue less as to what to do and is rather
    frustration. Please help.
    Kind regards,

    After Effects hasn't changed anything. You just need to tell After Effects how to interpret the footage:

  • After Effects just bounces in the dock but wont start

    Hi all,
    Just installed CS4 production studio under Snow Leopard.  All works well and updated using the Adobe Updater.  All apps are fine except AE which just bounces in the dock a few times and then stops.  I read that this could be because Rosetta was not installed.  I installed Rosetta from the Snow Leopard DVD and still nothing.  Have restarted 3 times just in case (I also read that several restarts may be required to get it to work), but still nothing.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards
    Dave

    OK... Now I feel like Scott of the Antartic writing in his journal before the inevitable... I am writing this purely to help anyone else with the same issue to resolve it without the pain that I am still experiencing.  Hopefully the last entry will read "all solved" and not "I am about to pop outside... I may be some time..."
    After using CS2 for the bulk of my work I thought I'd try and get this solved once and for all, especially as we have a DVCPROHD project coming up and need CS4 to do it.
    OK... The so now I have the suite running, except Premiere is running under at trial without the presets and the updates fail when installing.  Contacted support this week, they wont re-open the original case because it has been over a month.  Fair enough, new case.
    The adobe guy takes control of my machine, deactivates it, then from Finder deletes lots of folders.  He then asks me to re-install the products.  I do this (2 hours later) and run Premiere and it appears to work with presets.  I look a bit closer and notice that under the help menu of Premiere Register, Deactivate and Updates are all greyed out.  This is not the case in the other products of the suite.  OK, so not a major deal but does imply something is not installed right.  I run the Adobe Updater, Premiere updates, but AE, PS and several updates fail.
    Call back to support.  This time the Adobe guy takes control of my machine suggests I deactivate the suite, run the un-install and then download and run the CS3 Clean script and re-install.  I do all this.  Another 2 hours later feeding discs into the machine... and... Premiere looks fine, presets all there... but wait for it... AFTER EFFECTS JUST BOUNCES IN THE DOCK BUT WONT START.
    3rd call back to support and ask for the issue to be escalated.  This is difficult and I have to cause a fuss to realise that this problem is the same one that has been hanging around for months and that I am not prepared to spend more hours removing every trace of Adobe from my machine and re-installing - this doesn't work.  The support technician asks me to delete a hidden folder that has all the Adobe patches in it, manually download the AE 9.0.2 update and install it.   It installs but AE wont start.  I explain that I've had enough and want the problem escalated.
    I finally get a call back from a 2nd level engineer this morning.  After explaining the that AE wont start and then answering the question "why is this a problem for you!" we do some quick troubleshooting.  This time I have to pull out the network cable, turn off Airport, create a new user account, log on to it and then see if AE runs.  Which it does.  Within seconds we get launched into the pre-determined script, "if it runs under another user account then there is nothing wrong with the applications and I should call Apple".  After being patronised for a further 5 mins I had to PROVE to the guy that it was also possible that the fault was Adobes.  I also know the moment I phone Apple, the response will be "Call Adobe".
    The only example I could give him at the time was to image a piece of software I had written that allocated memory based on the screen resolution (this is a user preference) and if my code was badly written and crashed when encountering a screen resolution bigger than my code was expecting.  OK, is that Apple's fault, no it is my code.  Will it run under one user and not another, yes it will.  There are a million other posibilities.  Some I agree could be Apple's, but equally some could be Adobes and the big fat fob off as soon as you can is terrible.
    I have also since realised since leaving this call with the technician, that:
    1) This is a brand new iMac and the Adobe Suite was the 1st piece of 3rd party software installed on it.
    2) The iMac is for video editing and nothing else.
    3) This was working without presets before the Adobe guys deleted all these files and asked me to re-install.  It is more likely that they have deleted something they should not have rather than the a bug in the OS.  A bug in the OS is still possible but I suspect the problem is with a rogue bit of installation code from Adobe.
    Finally incase anyone from Adobe is reading this:
    I have paid thousands of pounds for this software.
    I have been unable to use it for months.
    A problem like this should be gold dust for you.  Here is the chance to get to the bottom of an issue that several people are having, understand the mechanics of what is going wrong.  Write a KB article as well as a patch and this would save the time/money and effort of an awful lot of people (including your own).
    As a short thought experiment I would like everyone at Adobe to image the following:
    You pay £1,000 of your own money for a tool to do your work on the promise that you can make this money back in productivity gains, new business, etc.
    The tool you use every day to make a living won't work.  For the benefit of the experiment, imagine this is your email client, web browser or case management tool.
    You have no IT group to replace your machine or to come and solve it.
    You can't tell your customers that your software is down and you have to keep doing your job.
    You have to spend an additional 3 days in your own time, working late or weekends to try and fix the software yourself.
    You to keep downloading a Gigabyte of data 3 or four times and you have to pay for downloads.  Currently you are running up a bill of over £100 in downloads and phone calls.
    You don't get paid the overtime and your customers start complaining you are late with your work.
    You lose customers... you eventually get fired because you have lost too many of them.
    ...This is what it feels like for a small creative business to not be able to install the software they bought.

  • After upgrading to mountain lion, the movies I create using iDVD periodically stop then resume abruptly when I play them back on my DVD player. Any ideas on correcting this?

    After upgrading to mountain lion, the movies/slideshows I create using iDVD playback in a jolting start/stop manner. This didn't happen with the prior os - playbacks were flawless. Any ideas, short of uninstalling mountain lion, on how to correct?

    I know this is not much help. IDVD and Mountain Lion are working perfectly for me.  I know many others that use Mountain Lion with iDVD also.
    I think your problem lies elsewhere.

  • Subscriber After Effects CC 2014 has the right to license the previous After Effects for free?

    I need license the After Effects CS5 for professional use, why do I need create templates for every type of user of After Effects, from CS5 to the CC.
    I know there's no way to sign Ae CS5 license, then Ae signing CC will have the freedom to also use the Ae CS5 with same license of CC?
    Or is there a way to license the Ae CS5?

    There are many versions between After Effects CS5 and the current version of After Effects CC. There are very few users still using the old After Effects CS5.
    The current version of After Effects---After Effects CC 2014.1 (13.1)---can open After Effects CS5 files just fine, so you can use the current version to take in work by people still on that very old version.

    But when I try to use
    short memRemaining = JCSystem.getAvailableMemory(JCSystem.MEMORY_TYPE_PERSISTENT);
    it always shows 32767. Even after loading some applet.
    And I am using 72K Java card then how it can show only 32Kbyte as the remaining memory value.This is because a short isn't big enough to display a number above 32767. One way around this is to use a byte[] to fill up some of the space with your temporary applet.
    byte[] memoryFiller = new byte[32767];
    short memRemaining = JCSystem.getAvailableMemory(JCSystem.MEMORY_TYPE_PERSISTENT);The value of memRemaining + 32767 is the amount of persistent memory left on the card. If memRemaining is still 32767, you can add another byte[] starting with small values and increase the size until you get a meaning ful result (less than 32K).

  • In After Effects when I use the Color Finesse 3, A grid appears in the display window. How do I turn that off?

    When I click on Affects, then Synthetic Aperture, then SA Color Finesse 3 in the Creative Cloud a grid appears over the video in the display window, and I am un sure how to take that off?

    Color Finesse 3 LE is included with After Effects and is installed automatically when After Effects is installed. The only reason to upgrade to the paid version is if you want to use Color Finesse in Premiere Pro as well as in After Effects.
    Since it's a college computer, do you have the ability to install/uninstall software? Many colleges lock down the computers to limit such access. You'll need full access, including an admin password, to use the following steps. If you're not allowed the necessary access, you can pass the following along to whoever does computer administration.
    To remove the trial version, delete the entire "Synthetic Aperture" folder found in:
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/7.0/MediaCore
    (Note that this is the Library folder at the base of your boot drive, not the one in your home folder.)
    Next, re-enable the bundled version of Color Finesse by going to the following folder:
    /Applications/Adobe/Adobe After Effects CC/Support Files/Plug-ins/Effects/Synthetic Aperture
    Now, within that "Synthetic Aperture" folder you'll find a plug-in with parentheses around the name:
    (SA Color Finesse 3 AE64)
    Remove the parentheses from the filename so AE will see it. Do NOT remove the parentheses from the "(CF3 Support)" folder or AE will launch very, very slowly, and Color Finesse won't work right.
    Finally, within the "(CF3 Support)" folder, locate the "(SA Color Finesse 3 UI)" application and remove the parentheses.
    Launch AE, apply Color Finesse to a layer, enter a name, and you should be good to go with no grid lines.

  • I started a creative cloud student membership but Premiere Pro and After Effects are not in the app

    I started a creative cloud student membership but Premiere Pro and After Effects are not in the app and won't download from the adobe website, all that happens is that the creative cloud app opens and sends me to the list of programs available for download which still do not contain Premiere Pro and After Effects

    Premiere Pro and After Effects are 64 bit only apps.
    They require a 64 bit computer and a 64 bit operating system.
    If you're running Windows 7 32 bit or Windows 8 32 bit then you will not be able to download, install or run Premiere Pro or After Effects.
    See http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html#desktop-products
    Which desktop applications in Creative Cloud require 64-bit operating systems?
    With the new CC apps, most of the pro video and audio applications now require 64-bit operating systems to run. These native 64-bit applications include Adobe Premiere® Pro CC, Adobe Audition® CC, After Effects® CC, Prelude® CC, and SpeedGrade® CC. Flash Professional CC, Photoshop CC and Lightroom® also require 64-bit on Mac OS.
