After Effects CS4 Rendering Error
Every time I try to render a small loop I get the error message of :After Effects Error: Creating file "comp1.mov"- Access denied (-5000) (3::3)
can any body help me out here?
What version of AE are you using and on what OS ?
Basically AE cannot write your file because it's already been used by another program. It could be locked by Quicktime, or maybe locked by your antivirus, or Time machine, or Even AE if the file is opened in your project.
It also can be locked because of file/folder permission (even if you are an administrator on Vista for exemple, your software cannot write file to some places without running them in Administrator mode, by rightclicking on them and selecting "run as admin").
Try to close any application that could be using your file, and try to export your file to another directory with another filename.

When I try to start After Effects it get this message
After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <5060>
<AppDirs> <5> Required Dir= C:\Program Fiels (x86}\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS4\Support Files\Required
then I get this
After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. See http://www.adobe.com/support/products/aftereffects.html

I've uninstalled After Effects and did a fresh install. But when I install it I get install done but with errors!
What is going on? I've never had this happen before so I don't know if anyone has experienced this before.
but some background info and what I did before this happend. I installed some fonts from another PC and brought
a project I was working on from another PC to hopefully continue working on my Computer but when I tried to open the file
I ended up with After Effects crashing.Permission issues... try some of what is posted on this page under the respective section.

After effects cs4 "distiller error"
I recently bought and installed adobe creative master collection cs4. My computer isn't the best...but i made it meet the minumum requirement nessecary to run the programs.
Anyway,more to the point.
Every program seems to work apart from adobe after effects, i was looking forward to using that one.
When i open it, i have to minimise all other windows, or it won't load, all i hear is the good old MS "beep error sound".
about 1/10 times it will come up with an error, i don't remember exactly but something along the lines of this.
"another instance is being used in distiller. this instance will not continue".
Any Ideas, it's probably something simple i know
P.S-I installed all the updates nessecary, at 1st it was running, but i made a few clicks and it closed itself, now it refuses to run, i have uninstalled and re-installed it. it gets to installing the media core and stops.Another app (some older Adobe software, presumably) is having a hold on your shared PDF libraries or the Adobe font system, which AE also needs to deal with vector files or legacy PostScript fonts. The quick, but unelegant solution is to terminate those programs/ services (Acrobat quick starter for instance) by killing their process in task manager, the long-term solution would be to straighten out that mess and get a handle on which program does what.

After effects cs4 render error/problem
I started rendering my video.After 1:30 minutes after i started rendering, the video changed intro something looking like a TV without signal, and stayed like that till the end of the video.Something like in this photo
I don't think you understood me. When you get the color bars there is missing footage in your comp. Try scrubbing through your timeline to the place where the color bars appear in your render. You should see the same thing in the comp window. Find the layer that is giving you the color bar image, right click and select find in Project, then right click the footage and use the replace footage option to find the footage.
If that does not fix your problem please give us a screenshot with the CTI at the point in your render where the color bars appear and reveal all properties of the problematic layer.
I just looked up the codec you are using. It's a highly compressed 3rd party codec and that alone could be causing your problem. There are lots of users of that codec that have problems. If you do not have missing footage in your project then Transcode the original screen capture footage to a suitable production quality codec and replace the footage in your AE project with a standard digital intermediate codec. Jpeg compressed Quicktime is probably one of the most versatile and dependable DI codec. -
AFTER EFFECTS CS4 Rendering Problems....
Hey people I have been having some rendering problems on CS4 It's very random when i'm getting these errors, sometimes it's just for the one frame..which i'm not bothered about because at 60fps, 1 frame isn't going to be noticable. But at the end of my last render, the last 10 frames are like this, but differ between pink and white at the top. (see picture at the bottom)
Here are my settings
lossless, with audio checked
avi output format
no compression method
Also i've re-rendered the dodgy footage in sony vegas but that didn't change anything
that is what the frame looks like....
If anyone can help me id be so thankful.... so please post!!!
also if you have any questions just post and i will get back to you ASAPSince we don't know what this frame is SUPPOSED to look like, it's extremely difficult to offer up a solution.
If you're talking about the weird color in the corners, you can work in 16 or 32-bit comps, or add a little noise to the image. Not much. -

I would, in a perfect world, like to render the video with the text with these exact same settings (or without rendering the video but just adding the text). Is there any way I could do this?
ThanksI would, in a perfect world, like to render the video with the text with these exact same settings (or without rendering the video but just adding the text). Is there any way I could do this?
No. For all intents and purposes, that is completely mutually exclusive. The footage must be decoded at any cost then the text integrated into the background pixels, resulting in a re-encode. It's simply not possible for technical reasons in any program on this planet. The only way to achieve some sort of pass-through would not to do anything to the footage but cut it, but obviously that is not happening here and also would require a program like Premiere or Vegas to handle it. Based on that, in these programs you could also selectively re-encode only the sections thatr have the text, but never ever any of that in Ae. As a compositing program, it always expands the pixel data fully and after that, everything is a full new encode. so ultimately, how you out put it from there doesn't matter. Naturally, to avoid further recompression once you go back to your edit program, you would use visualyl lossless formats like Quicktime animation or PNG, but that's very much it...

After effects cs4 1625 error!!!
Hi, I'm trying to install aecs4 trial, but intallation stops near the start with this message "suite shared configuration error 1625 error": why?
(sorry for my poor english!!) please help me!!!http://support.microsoft.com/kb/229683
And since the relevant error states something with system policy, this is either a compatibility issue with UAC or other security stuff e.g. on Win 7, a third-party security tool blocking access or on the other hand mundane permissions/ user privileges issues becvause you are not running as admin or have limited your user in another way... Also looking at the Adobe installer logs might reveal more details. They are in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers...

When i go to render in H.264 (MP4 file) i get this error message http://gyazo.com/4557a414079627e9f124ec577bb9206d any help?
It means what it says:
http://myleniumerrors.com/2008/12/14/5027-12-8/
You need to read up on that stuff and make sure your settings are consitent in the output module settings as well as in the Encoder itself. If you have audio, turn it on in both places. If your comp is an odd size, use a different MPEG Level.

After Effects CS4 error during render
The error appearing is as follows...
After Effects: AEGP Plugin Media IO Plugin:
Unknown Error!
MediaIO2 error: 0x4
Not enough memory to complete this encoding
( 5027 :: 12 )
Now, my computer memory is very poor (1.98 GB RAM), however, I do not believe this is the issue as I have tried rendering the exact same file on my other computer with 8.00 GB RAM, but the same error occurs.
I am completely baffled with why this error may be occuring, I have tried many ways to try and stop this. Such as...
Changed the "RAM to leave for other Applications" to 0.25 GB
Enabled Multiprocessing
Enabled Disk Cashe and to a size of 10,000 GB
Installed the latest update of After Effects CS4
Tried changing After Effects CS4's priority and affinity using Task Manager
Tried rendering with only After Effects opened with all other applications closed
Rendering with different output modules rather ".wmv", such as ".avi" etc.
Changed the video size from 856x480 to 428x240 etc.
I have tried rendering different sections of the video to avoid the parts where it has previously failed to render, however, it is continuing to crash and fail regardless of the section
The project I am rendering is rather large (4 Minute File), consisting of atleast 1 GB worth of imported video (.wmv) and images (.png) etc. However, before today, rendering was never problem and my renders would always run smoothly without crashing, so i'm completely unsure on what the possible change is and what could resolve the issue.
Thank you, all help is appreciated!Any Windows Updates recently? Installed some CoDec pack or alternate media player software? If so, get rid of CoDec packs and reinstall Windows Media Player using the standalone package downloadable from Microsoft...

"Unable to create font" error when starting After Effects CS4 (Windows Vista)
Hi all
I have read a hundred posts about the "unable to create font" message that appears when running After Effects in both CS4 and CS5 versions.
On MAC, it seems that installing the Verdana fonts family is enough.
On my PC running Windows Vista, i tried unsuccessfully :
- uninstalled and reinstalled After Effects
- installed all the fonts of the Adobe Font Folio v11
- looked for the "AdobeFnt.lst" to delete it, found no such file in my whole hard drive
- changed my system language to English (USA)
Other CS4 softwares work.
What can i do?See this page for some additional information about this error.
> I forgot to mention that i also installed the 9.0.2 update. Didn't work either!
You should also install the After Effects CS4 (9.0.3) update. -
I installed after effects CS4 on the school pc, it works fine until I login into student user login and when i open up after effects it comes up with this error.
"Adobe effects error:finding preferences folder - no such directory (-120)"
I search in google and i still can't find any solution for this issue, please help.
I also provides a screeshoot for more info.Ask your system administrator. It's perfectly possible to use a different location for your local user account data by modifying those settings with the group policy editor or by manually changing the paths in the registry. However, these things still need to be persistent, so just pointing it to your server-based profile or whatever you may be using will not be sufficient. Indeed either the specific directory must be explicitly set to have full permissions by decoupling iot from the inheritance rules of the global permissions or, again by ways of the group policy editor, your user group outfitted with the respective permissions. Of course the simplest option would be to instate yourself as a Power User, so you have default permission to view system directories and may modify files.

Adobe After Effects CS4 post render errors.
I am currently working on Adobe After Effects CS4.
I created a video on Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 mixing 2 sound tracks and a video track + another transparent video track with a logo. I've checked the project many times on Premiere Pro, and it seemed excellent. Then I imported the Premiere Pro Project to After Effects CS4 and checked the sequence again in ae cs4 to confirm it before rendering. After checking the video, I started rendering it.
All went ok.
But after rendering the video I got a huge problem. The video works excellent up to 20mins and suddenly the primary video became green colour, but the sounds and the video track where I set the transparent video, still works fine. The primary video was green colour till the end.
This is a serious problem! Can anyone help me to fix it!! Its Urgent!!My system properties are as follows.
