After effects footage in slo motion when it should be regular speed

Hi. When I import clips no matter what frame-rate they are in slow motion. Even after the clips render. Does anyone know why this could be happening?

Lucky you! We have reading and viewing material that 'splains it all!

Render files from After Effects inserts do not reload when starting Premiere Pro (CS6)

Hi there,
When I have an insert from After Effects in Premiere Pro, and when I render these parts in the sequence, everything is fine untill I restart Premiere Pro: the render files do not load. Checking the cache directory however, they do exist! Anybody knows how to solve this issue?
Thanks for yor response, Pieter

I failed to mention that I tried this on another computer as well with a completly different lesson. This time I brought the whole footage in to afteraffects and did the keying and then went back to CS6 and tried to render it, and it locked up my second computer the same way.

After Effects Warning: A problem occurred when processing OpenGL commands

Hi There Fellow Adobe After Effects Users.
Please could some one help assist me with the following error i am getting.
I bought a template and needed to do a logo animation reveal. It was done using After Effects CC for PC.
AE had to then convert it to Mac which did so successfully. I was able to modify, add my logo and render out.
The following day i opened the file again and it gave me the follwoing error:
"After Effects Warning: A problem occurred when processing OpenGL commands"
What is confusing to me is that this issue would normally appear if my graphics cards did not support OpenGL, and it would not have opened in the first place if it was not supported.
My graphics card is a - ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB - running Mavericks OS. So i know that this card does support GPU acceleration.
Please could someone point me in a direction that will fix this.
Thank you so much

Thank you for the update Mylenium.
If I look at my display info, the card says OpenGL engine. Does this mean anything?
If it's not supported, then what's the point in purchasing a Mac If you cannot use AE's full capacity. Mac doesn't put Nvidia cards in there machines and on the Adobe website, ATI cards ate not listed; but in the same breath it says that most ATI cards that have come out in the past 5 years are supported. Surely Adobe and their technicians must have spoken with Mac technitions.
I am considering to buy the new Mac Pro; but am definitely going to change my mind if I cannot use AE's full compatibility. I don't see why spend so much cash if the cards aren't great.
Please could you then tell me what functions to switch off in the project file. I'll get the guy whom I bought the template from to switch of those functions.
Thank you.
Have a great day

After Effects - Multiprocessing not allowed even when a Proxy is used?

Hi everybody!
          I have a composition (Comp1) that uses an effect which doesn't allow multiprocessing (e.g., Lens Blur) -- this I understand.
          Comp1 is used inside of Comp2. When I pre-render Comp1 and use that render as a proxy for Comp1 inside of Comp2, I still can't use multiprocessing. This is the confusing bit. I'd think since the Lens Blur effect isn't actually being rendered, it shouldn't give me any guff.
          Alas, it does. Anyone else run into this? Is there a workaround, or is it a bug/oversight by our friends at Adobe?
          Thanks in advance as always -- this forum is a great resource!

Hi Dave,
I appreciate your help, but I think I'm still missing something. When I set a proxy movie for my Comp1, come render time, it should never look inside Comp1 at all — it should just use the proxy movie. The LensBlur effect is not applied to Comp1 itself, it's used INSIDE Comp1.
To what end would AE look inside the real Comp1 when it's been assigned a proxy movie?

Subject: After Effects - Multiprocessing not allowed even when a Proxy is used?
Typically, a proxy is a low-resolution substitute for the real image to make AE work a little faster, right? When AE renders, it doesn't render the proxy, it uses the high-resolution real image, right? The same thing is happening in your project.
If it doesn't impact your work to use a lower-resolution substitute for your comp 1, I'd suggest not using the substitute as a proxy.
If full resolution matters, make a full-resolution prerender.

After Effect warning: A problem occurred when processing OpenGL commands

I have After Effects CS6 in a computer where also CS5.5 is installed. 64bit windows 7 Ultimate 20GB memory and two AMD Radeon HD 6900 Series Display adapters with drivers updated an hour ago (Driver date 27.7.2012, version 8.982.0.0).
When trying to use After Ecffects, I get error message "After Effect warning: A problem occurred when processing OpenGL commands" immediately when clicking Composition window.
What could be done?

Not much, I'm afraid. You probably need an older graphics driver. Other than that you could always disable the second card or play with the configuration. Unfortunately some not so smart person decided that CS6 would no longer need manual OpenGL control for the user, so there's no way to suppress it from within the program to force-revert to software-only modes in case of such issues...

After Effects CS5.5 Stops responding when I import .mov files from VideoCopilot

Okay so I have a personal movie project that is in my mind so I opened After Effects and wanted to import an explosion.mov file to the video clip from Action Essentials. It worked a month ago but now for some reason right when I import the .mov clip, it crashes... I have After Effects CS4 and CS5.5 and when I import the same exact .mov file to CS4, it works. I have the latest version of quicktime, can anyone help me? Here is a video link for the problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60JqDeMJBmo&feature=youtu.be

First off, my system specs:
CPU: Intel Core i7 2600k CPU @ 3.40 GHz (8 CPUs)
Memory: 12 GB Corsair Vengeance 12288MB RAM
GPU: Nvidia GTX 580 Superclocked SLI (x2)
DirectX: DirectX11
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
After Effects CS5.5 Version 10.5, I installed all the recent updates, the footage I was using was from video copilot, I didn't get any error messages when I put the footage in, After Effects just freezes up when I put the footage in. I was using Adobe Bridge in the background to import the clips, but I also tried importing in a different way by just plainly dragging and dropping the clips from the folder, I have not downloaded any third party codecs.
I've tried the troubleshooting, all of the solutions in the link you gave me, but none of them worked, I turned off the firewall. You can see what happens when I import the .mov clips in After Effects in the video link on the very first post of this thread. But suprisingly, the .mov files work in CS4 but not in CS5.5.

After effects does not import video when I direct link from premiere pro. Why not? how do i fix this?

I wanted to add some motion tracked text elements into a clip of a interview in my premiere pro cc timeline. I left clicked on the clips that i wanted to "replace with after effects composition".. so i clicked it to and it opens a new comp in after effects.. Only there is no video opened in the comp.. Theres nothing there. I cant figure out why it doesnt bring the video in? Its not in my project panel in ae.. and ive tried direct link by left clicking the clip and going through the menu.. Tried closing AE and then doing direct link. Tried opening AE first and then doing it.. Not working no matter how i try it. Whats the fix?
Im using all CC products. Premiere is up to date, after effects is not. I will be updating it to see if that fixes the problem. As soon as I do. I will post a comment as to whether it fixed it or not. In the meantime i could use some help!
Computer specs:
Imac
OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

After Effects CS6 and CC crash when Composition panel is closed, moved, switched w/ Layer panel, etc

Kind of hard to word the problem in a non-confusing way, but here goes. After Effects CS6 and CC will only work if the Composition panel is in its default spot in the Standard workspace, and that it's the only thing displayed there. No layer or footage panels can be opened - it can only be Comp or nothing.
In other words, AE is 100% certain to crash if:
- The composition panel is closed or moved to another spot in the workspace.
- A file from the project is double-clicked and opened as a layer/footage panel
- Any attempt is made to switch the Standard workspace to another
The crappiest thing about this is that I've searched Google using as many different phrases as I can and haven't found any discussion about this particular problem. It's as if I'm the only one on Earth who is having this issue.
It should be noted that After Effects CS5 does not have this problem on my PC, but I need CS6 or better because that's what we're using at work now. I can't work from home (as I need to do occasionally) if AE won't work properly.
System:
Windows 7 PC, 12GB RAM, Quad-core AMD Phenom II X4 965 @ 3.7 Ghz, ATI Radeon HD 6700 series GPU (1GB)

It's not like a regular crash that instantly closes the program and has a "sorry, AE crashed" popup. It basically just freezes until the process is forced to quit.

After Effects Disk Full error (-1610153463) when rendering to QTs

Hi! I'm having a very weird error on most of my computers when rendering to our shared storage,
After Effects error: Rendering error while writing to file "E:\xxx.mov". Disk Full. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1601053463)
All the machines in here can access the same media and storage volumes, they are mounted as NTFS volumes fron an iSCSI storage called DDP. All this was working fine until about 2 weeks ago, nothing was updated or upgraded on the storage.
Weird this is this do not fail if the render to the same location is done in AVI format, or with certain QT codecs.
NON codec fails immediately, writes a QT that is about 8 MB in size and fails.
DNXHD writes about 1 second of frames and fails.
BMP codec fails too.
but...
all those codecs render fine if I render to my desktop or to my D drive that is also a local drive inside of the computer, NTFS formatted too. So the codes mys be fine.
I can not discard ad storage issue, but like I said before, it ONLY fails if I use QT and some codecs, PhotoJPG for example does not fail, space, I have plenty.... and, this only happens from the windows computers, the MAC does not fail.
I'll keep testing stuff and will post what I find.... but if anyone have any suggestions or ideas.... are very welcome...

wonder if you read my previous post answering to myself?
It is actually not a network drive, is is a NFTS drive mounted over iSCSI, its not a NFS volume. Workd fine for over a year, until last Windows Defender update... and it is actually fasted than my local drives since the local drives are simple SATA drives and this is a 48 Drives RAID connected over 10 GigE iSCSI and with a performance of 1050 MB/s.
Even our projects are saved on these iSCSI volumes, so all the rooms we have can work from the same project without having to duplicate media or projects between rooms, so producers can jump from room to room with the projects if the artist is bussy with something else and they need changes, someone else can take care of it...

After Effects 6.5 & 7 crashes when I import audio...

hey guyz,
help me...
i'm havin a prob.. When i import mp3/audio in after effects 6.5 & 7...d software crashes and the error msg is here :
" After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. See www.adobe.com/support/products/aftereffects.html for known issues. If you still can't resolve the issue, please contact Adobe Technical Support (2). (0::42)"
plzzz reply & tell me solution

Most importantly: what is the source of the MP§ file and its internal structure? Is it copyrighted? Is it surround/ multichannel? Is it a captured web radio stream? Is it from an online store? Does it use variable bit rates? There's a number of things that could be the reason... That aside, Andrew is right: convert the file to a wave file e.g. using Winamp's disk writer module. Even if you could import the MP3 directly into AE, there's always the chance it may sound garbage, due to to way how AE handles such compressed audio, especially in versions prior to CS3.

HELP! My After Effects project is complete, but when I render out and playback the video is a lot faster then the original playback.

I have finished my After Effects project. The project includes a lot of text and fade ins and outs and looks perfect in the playback. But once I render and playback with Quicktime the video does not look the same. The animations are very jumpy. Please help!
Thanks,
David V

Hey David,
Also, my AE comp is 29.97, but i have four other comps in that one and they're 23.97 fps.
It seems like that would be the likely culprit. Is there a specific reason those comps (which are, I assume, nested inside the 29.97 one?) are 23.976? Do they contain 23.976fps footage? Mixing of comps, video and different frame rates can often cause juddery playback after rendering, as the interpolation of the frame rates to the master render frame rate happens without any interaction on the user's part. But AE gives many different options (and techniques, everyone has their own) to assist with getting the frame rates and speeds more aligned so the final frame rate is perfect for them all. It takes a little planning, that's all.
Let me know, I'll be glad to help if this is the issue.

Adobe After Effects CC, getting error message when trying to open

error -10810
Just bought a new computer and registered with Adobe for the CC and can't open After effects. What can I do?

That is a Mac OS error code that says that the OS doesn't have any room left in its process table to run another process. Restart your computer and then start After Effects.

Performance with After Effects on New 27" iMac 24GB RAM should be SO FAST Right?

Hello, I just got the new 27" iMac, installed 24GB Crucial RAM. It's got 3.4GHz Intel Core i7 processor.
And NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB....
So I just installed my After Effects and Premiere programs, opened up a project. Literally just tested a 3 second after effects composition and rendered it. It says it is using 18% of 24GB of RAM and it is taking over an hour. I even attempted changing the output setting to just a H.264 1080p 23.976. Same issue.
I am pretty new at this stuff, but I've got an 8GB Powerbook that would render this in less than a minute. Can you think of something I should check on? What could be causing this? Seems like something is very wrong here. I haven't even done anything to my settings, it's basically all out of the box (software and computer).
Thank you so much!

We cannot know. You need to tell us what exactly is going on in your comp. The simple explanation would be that you have set your comp renderer to raytrace 3D and with that on, on systems that do not have a supported GPU even simple, conventional stuff renders for ever. Check this. For anything else we need much more info.

Is it possible to play back an After Effects composition in slow motion? (CS6)

Hi,
I'd like to play back the composition in slow motion so I can make sure the animations are smooth.
I find that sometimes you see gaps in your animation when you play it back frame by frame but you only just notice that something might be off when you play the timeline back in real time. So this would be for "proofing" your footage. I find the frame by frame approach a bit tedious for a lengthy composition.
Is this possible?
Thanks

You can enforce a different framerate on the Preview palette.
