After Effects error: Invalid DICT array size (83 :: 2)

I've looked online and the only solution I've seen posted anywhere was using FontDoctor on a Mac system. I'm using Windows 8 and tried a program called FontDoctor from Extensis, but it did not solve my issue when I corrected the "problems" it detected.
Does anybody know how I can get rid of this error? It's very annoying...

Some crappy freeware fonts have been known to register as specific font families liek Arial while actualyl containing a completely different font (a ripped commercial font usually). Just saying. If you don't use such fonts, then that's not the issue. For checking your otehr fonts you will have to spend some time browsing the list. I'm not aware of a specific tool for this, though naturalyl, commercial font managers might have such a search feature...

After effects CC (12.2.1.5) Error: Invalid DICT array size ( 83 :: 2 ) ??!

Every time i launch AE, this message pops up, i had this in AE Cs6 and now in AE CC 12.2.1.5
am using Windows 7, using Adobe After effects CC 12.2.1.5, 32 GB Ram, intel i7
Once i click OK, the application works fine no problems, sometimes when i minimize it and use the browser for example, once i restore AE the message pop up again!
Please Advice.

THese are font or language settings issues. Check your system language and region setings and remove any fonts you don't need. There could be a"bad" one. Also of course start by reinstalling the program.

This is still happening to me, and it's completely up to date. Not sure how to proceed.

After Effects error: invalid filter (25::3)

Someone reported this error when using my plug-in on a Mac. It works fine on my Mac and on many others, but reports this error on his system. My globalsetup code gets called and works fine, but AE reports this error.
Any ideas?

After effects error: rendering error while writing to file. Disk full.

Hi,
I tried to render a video in AE CC 2014, with RGB + Alpha as I wanted to keep the background transparent (rotoscoped) so that I can then use it in Premiere.
I chose to export in Quicktime, with uncompressed 8bit.
After it rendered it for a little while I had a window pop-up saying
After effects error: rendering error while writing to file "E:...blabla". Disk full. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1610153463).
I read a thread posted in the forums but i do not understand the solution provided there.. What is a POD??
I have a Win7 Ultimate, x64. Plenty of disk space, and 16 Go ram.
Please help, I canoot go further in my project with this bug...

Is the drive you are rendering to formatted FAT32 by any chance? If so you can only render up to 4Gb for one file. Try rendering out a TIFF sequence instead. Litte tip - push the LZW compression tickbox in format options for a lossless compression, this will keep you file size way down.

After effects error, please tell me how to fix

Whenever I open after effects it says "After effects error: Warning: Frame Size Input Error, Layer base size must be the same, time for some precomp maybe? (512) ( 25 :: 241 )"
And when I try to ram preview, it says "After effects error: RAM Preview needs 2 or more frames to playback"
Any help? Thanks!

I just came across the same problem. Turns out reel smart motion blur was causing the issue. I had rsmb applied to a layer (png sequence) which was trimmed, with another precomp layer directly below it. AE couldn't RAM preview the final frame of the rsmb layer for some reason - presumably it couldn't access the next frame of the trimmed layer to calculate the blur on the final visible frame.
As a workaround I extended the layer to its full duration on the timeline and used opacity to keyframe the layer from 100% to 0% instead of trimming the layer. Voila! No more error message.

After Effects error when rendering

"After Effects error: Rendering error while writing file "file_name". An output module failed. The file maybe damaged or corrupted (-1610153464)"
file rendered successfully in draft and poor quality but this error is when best quality.
Tried saving into different location, rendered but the finished film kept stopping every 2 seconds and took 7GB of space. The film is meant to be 55 seconds long.

You are using the default Animation codec which is the default codec. You should really study up on rendering and formats. I'm guessing that your connection to the external drive had some data rate problems or started dropping bits. Try another cable or render to your boot drive. You've scaled your latest screenshots to the point where they are very difficult to read, but it looks like everything else is normal except that your top screenshot shows the only footage in the shot looks like it came from a GoPro and your composition frame rate in the Render Settings is showing up as 24. It's not likely that that is the actual frame rate of the footage. Select the footage in the composition in the Project Panel and check out the frame rate. If it is 59.94 then your comp should either be 29.97 or 59.94. Because of the size I suspect that the frame rate is not 24 but 23.976.
This probably did not cause your problem but frame rates are important to understand and use properly.

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: Unable To Allocate Space...

I have never seen this before...I am stumped.
I am on After Effects 8.0.2 on a PC at work (Windows XP Pro 2002 SP2 / Intel Xeon 3.6 Ghz / 3.25 GB RAM) and I keep getting the following error when rendering:
"After Effects Error: Unable to Allocate Space for 4290 x 4590 image buffer"
My Comp is nowhere near that size (1280 x 720) nor is anything in it (PS document 1200 x 1500 / 720p video / solids are comp size). I have reset Cache sizes until I am blue in the face / have enabled Disk Cache / dumped preferences / cursed at the machine / nothing works.
Any suggestions would be appreciated...thanks.
Joey

Just thinkin; out loud, so sorry if it's stuff you've already considered, Joey:
Any scale settings expanding objects beyond the size of the comp? Text especially can blow out memory when scaled up large.
Same goes for 3D objects close to the camera.
As you're a Mac-o-file you've probably been saved in the past by the extra RAM accessible - SP will only give AE 2GB.

After Effects error: opening movie - you do not have permission to open this file (-54)

Hi all,
I'm new to after effects. I have just started receiving the following error every time I try to render my movie:
"After Effects error: opening movie - you do not have permission to open this file (-54)".
Yesterday morning, I was able to render movies, however, after I did Apple's latest update I've started receiving the following error. What is happening is that I'm trying to render a movie. It gets to a certain point in the movie (about 0;00;16;09) and then this error pops up. This morning I've tried to repair the permissions with disk utility, but that doesn't seem to have helped.
I've searched Google and the Adobe support forums with no luck. Please help.
Thanks in advance for you help,
William

Have been able to downgrade to QT 7.3 using Pacifist. Did NOT require re-install of OS.

Now that I am back to QT7.3, iTunes7.6 is now asking me to update QT to 7.4 in order to be able to view the new movie rental feature of the iTunes store... which sorta sheds some light on the no permission error. Now that iTunes is renting, not just selling, movies, QT is now all fussy about ownership and permissions. Just a guess.

What does "After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialize PSL. ( 83 :: 8 )" mean?

So, about a week ago I did a fresh install of 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate on a new PC, and subscribed to the Adobe Creative Cloud, installing After Effects CS6 and Photoshop CS6 from the Adobe Application Manager, then doing all updates (and I just checked right now at 10:35PM on July 26th, I have the latest versions of everything).
After Effects was working completely normal, then just now, I tried to import a Photoshop .psd and I got the error message:
After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialize PSL.
( 83 :: 8 )
Then After Effects crashed. So now it opens up normally, but when I try to import a .psd or open an After Effects project saved from an earlier version of After Effects (CS3 to CS5) I get the same error and a crash, every single time.
Searching the forums, I see people talking about this error when importing .psds into CS5, and they say that getting the latest updates solved the issue for them (which obviously can't help me). I'm running all legit software on a brand new computer with 32 GB of RAM which has passed all my physical stress tests so I know it's not hardware related.
The one thing I saw people suggest is to hold down Ctrl-Alt-Shift when starting the program. When I do this, Windows asks if I want to allow After Effects to make changes to the system, and when I say yes, I can import .psds and open the older AE files. When I close After Effects and reopen it without holding down the Ctrl-Alt-Shift keys, it goes right back to crashing.
Obviously the smart-*** answer is "then hold down Ctrl-Alt-Shift, dummy", and I'll do that for now, but is there any clue what the problem is?
I feel like kind of a chump because I decided to stop using my student versions of Adobe software (I haven't been a student for about four years) and pay the full price for the cloud membership and the latest creative suite, and it's full of bugs.

Now, I get the same ( 83 :: 8 ) error listed above, followed by a new dialog window that reads:
After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <4488> <DynamicLink> <5> C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS6\Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
Then, when I click OK, I get:
After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. For After Effects Help and Support, go to http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_ae_support. If you still can't resolve the issue, please contact Adobe Technical Support (2).
( 0 :: 42 )
Clicking OK to that gives me a chance to save the latest project, then the standard Windows 7 crash dialog window opens, the one that gives me the choice of "Check online for a solution and close the program" or just "Close the program" and lets me View problem details, which are:

After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in "Looks" URGENT!

My name is Tyler and i'm a Mult-Media Editor in training. Just recently meaning just this project i've been getting this error "After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in “Looks”." every time i try to render. If i try to remove the clip where it messes up and replace it with another it will just mess up in another spot.
Screen Shot Here:http://gyazo.com/794429fd1091973c8a296a27d2af6fab.png

I've read other forums and watched tutorials. I've already done the following. (Not in order used)
1. Downgrade Magic Bullet Looks from 1.4.3 to 1.4.2 (Didn't Work)
2. Upgrade Magic Bullet Looks to MBL 2.0 from Magic Bullet Suite 11 (Didn't Work)
3. Uninstall my gfx card and re-install it with the newer version (Didn't Work)
4. Reset AE preferences by pressing alt+shift+ctrl on the shortcut (Didn't Work)
5. Change render settings from H.264 -> .AVI (Didn't Work)
6. I've deleted "AE_OpenGL" from my After Effects folder (Didn't Work)

I've never had this problem before and hope that someone has a solution to this problem... if so please post an answer. I don't know if its because i put the plug in on all of my clips and then made an adjustment layer with another Magic Bullet Looks or if it's my clips fault but i just dont know what to do.
-Tyler

It sounds like Looks is only crashing on this project. If that is so then it's most likely a problem with one of your video clips. Either there's a corrupted frame or some other codec glitch that's throwing the errors. I'd suggest replacing footage items with temporary footage. You could even use solids. Replace one at a time, then undo, until you find the footage that's causing the crash. Then either re-compress that footage to another codec or replace it.
If Looks is crashing on every type of footage then you need to pursue other options that are more system related.

After Effects Error "error cannot be imported this moov file is damaged or unsupported"

I'm working on a AE project and shut the project down before going to lunch. I come back and open it up and I get this error:
after effects error cannot be imported this moov file is damaged or unsupported
Nothing had changed in my project since earlier today. I've tried to import other .mov's and get the same error, I've also tried to relink the footage.
Any thoughts?

After Effect error: Rendering error while writing to file

Greetings,
I'm a beginner and am starting to learn most of the basics but every time I try to render a specific type of composition, I get this massage:
After Effect error: Rendering error while writing to file "C:Users\Admin\Videos\720p.mp4".Unknown Error! (-1610153453)
RENDER SETTINGS:
LENGTH: 8min. and 30 sec
FORMAT:H.264
CODEC: mp4
RESOLUTION: 1280 x 720
AUDIO: 48.000 kHz, Stereo
OUTPUT LOCATION: C DRIVE (22GB FREE)
I got Windows Ultimate 64-bit and Adobe After Effect CS5.5 64-bit (both on C drive) installed in my laptop.
When I first installed after effect, I rendered a part of the whole composition (AVI, 720p) and it worked but after that when I rendered with
format H.264 it showed this massage. Then I tried to change it back to AVI. and rendered. again the same massage.
My C drive isn't full, I have 22GB SPACE AVAILABLE.
And when I try to save it on D (114GB free) or E drive (33GB free), It shows me the SAME MASSAGE.
PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance.

Hi HR and everyone that have the problem error (-1610153453)

After Effects error : layer does not have a source.

Hi All,
I add a Text layer and then add my custom fill effect to it. Then I call AdvItemSuite1()->PF_ForceRerender(in_data, &(params[0]->u.ld)) from AEGP for all the layers. But only for Text layer, AE pops up a dialog displaying the following error :
After Effects error : layer does not have a source.
(26::335)
Why is this happening? What other call can I use to rerender all the layers?
Thanks & Regards,
Dheeraj

For now just added a dummy parameter in the effect and calling AEGP_SetStreamValue() to render all the layer with effect.
I also have experienced problems with PF_ForceRerender(),
AEGP_SetStreamValu() seems like an alternative solution...
