After Effects isn't rendering out the audio in my video?

I have the audio output box checked and the same exact setting is working for every other Mac in the office. I just don't get it.

There could be a lot of reasons for this.
Your video may not have an audio track: either no audio at all, or the audio is embedded in the video track; AE needs a separate track.
You may have the audio turned off: check for a little speaker icon with the layer in the timeline, and turn it on.
You may have compressed audio -- mp3, ac3, etc -- and AE doesn't play nicely with it.  Turn them into aiff or wav files.
You didn't say where you're noticing this lack of audio: in AE, or after rendering.
....aaaaand it's tough to know the location of that audio output box you checked, because you didn't say.

  • I am running after effects CC on window 8 whenever I render a video the audio is misplaced. does everyone know whats going on?

    HI, I am running after effects CC on window 8 whenever I render a video the audio is misplaced. does everyone know whats going on?

    Nope.  We don't even know what you mean by "misplaced".
    Is it not there?
    Is the audio somewhere else in a different folder?
    Is the audio there, but leads or follows the video by a certain amount?
    Other things:
    Have you activated the audio checkbox in the Output Module when you add the comp ro the Render Queue?
    Is there audio present in your comp when you RAM Preview?

  • Horrible final video quality in After Effects CS6 when rendering a 1920x1080 video with H.264 format

    I've been using After Effects CS6 on my Macbook Pro for over a year now with no issues. However, today when I exported a video to be rendered in 1920x1080p with H.264 format, I got the worst quality final video I've ever seen. I filmed my video files in 1920x1080p (like usual), and I clicked all the same buttons I normally do to export a video, but every HQ video I try to export looks horrible. I haven't clicked any crazy buttons or anything out of the ordinary.
    I always export a video following this sequence:
    File > Export > Add to Render Queue > Lossless > H.264 (quality format) > video output (make sure it's checked) > audio output (make sure it's checked) > OK > Output to Desktop
    My render settings are always set as "best settings" including "full" resolution and "best" quality.
    Now, when I click H.264, a "settings mismatch" pops up and says:
    "Warning: Output file will be resized from 1920x1080 (1.00 PAR) to 320x1080 (6.00 PAR) to meet format constraints"
    The rendering quality and playback quality within After Effects is great, but once the video is exported, it is horrible.
    PLEASE HELP?! I have deadlines I need to meet!

    Use the H.264 encoding presets in Adobe Media Encoder.
    The H.264 export features in After Effects have been removed in later versions because of numerous problems.

  • After Effects CC slow renders on iMac (low CPU Usage?)

    Hi,
    i have an fully specced late 2013 27" iMac for working with the Creative Cloud Programms. At the moment i only have 8GB installed because of problems with my 32 GB Ram kit. I have an internal SSD for the OS and Programms, an 256GB USB3 SSD for Chache Files and a Raid 0 for my Source Files.
    I am now rendering an 7min long movie shot on an Red Epic in 5K and 4K to an ProRes422HQ 1080p File out of After Effect. I mainly used the "Levels" Effect and an Plug-In called "Film Convert". No crazy animations or effects. My Render time is about 18 hours (it`s nearly finished, so this are no wrong calculations by AE).
    Are this normal render times that should be expected when working with such large source files?
    What makes me wonder is that the Activity Monitor show only bout 40% CPU Usage (see attached screenshot), shouldn`t that be maxed out?
    I have to render out a few more similar clips, so optimizing this would be great.
    Thanks a lot for the help!

    Hi,
    thanks  a lot for your answers!
    I was too thinking about the HDD setup but i think mine is pretty decent. My source footage is on an 3 HDD Raid-0 with 550 MB/s read and write, i have an 250 GB Scratch/Chache SSD in an USB 3 UASP enclosure thats around 400 MB/s read and write and my project files are on an external USB 2 drive (will change to USB 3 soon). Only thing is that i am outputting my files to the Scratch/Chache SSD right now because i am still waiting for my USB 3 "Output" drive. But i don`t think the Chache is beeing used while rendering, or could that be the mistake?
    The GPU is this one: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB and should be ok i think.
    I hope my new 32GB Ram kit arrives soon, so i can test if more RAM helps.
    I have an 4K HD (Quad 1080p) Composition which contains mostly 4K HD source footage mixed with some downscaled 5K HD shots and some upscaled 2K HD Shots. The comp is mainly a simply edit from premiere with a Levels effect on every clip and the 3rd party film convert plugin plus an Unsharp Mask on the whole comp on adjustment layers. I tried turning those off too but it wasn`t speeding up much the rendering. I have no Ray-traced comp.
    I left the Render Settings to "Best Settings" for the final rendering. Altough for preview purposes i was putting the resolution to "quater" in the Render Settings and it took only about 30min for the whole comp to render.
    In the Output Module i was chosing ProRes422HQ as a codec and 1920x1080 as output resolution.
    The 4K and 5K shots are looking pretty good when rendering with the Render Settings turned to "quater" resolution but the 2K shot are looking terrible then. Could the long render time be a problem with how after effects handels the de-bayering of the R3D Files?

  • After Effects crashes when rendering to H264

    Hi,
    On one of my computers, After Effects Crashes when rendering to H264. It always chrashes when doing the last frame of a clip. I think its when muxxing the m4a and the m4v together...
    Does anyone have a solution? maybe there is some odd codec trash going on?
    Thanks in advance!

    Report
    In every version of AE that has been capable of exporting h.264 the quality has been significantly lower than exporting with an app that gives you the option of multi-pass rendering. This has always been true for MPEG codecs that use inter frame (temporal) compression. You just can't get the same quality without multi pass compression. This goes back to the first use of MPEG streams.
    AE CS6 may have H.264 encoding broken internally, but any pro has never used AE to render highly compressed delivery codecs because AE was never designed to be the right tool for the job.

  • After Effects error: Missing Filters in the file.

    I'm using CS4 in Windows XP SP3.  When I work with video in Photoshop, apply filters as smart object, and save as psd, then import into AE as footage>merged layers, I get this message:  After Effects error: Missing Filters in the file.  The file open as just the footage with none of the work I did in PS.
    Does anyone have a solution to this?  Am I missing some step along the way?
    Thanks!

    Isn't it obvious? AE does not support smart filters. It will only use the rasterized content of a PS layer. Hence you will have to rasterize the layer in PS to retain its appearance with all the effects applied. Look in the help which specific PSD features AE is able to support and translate.

    And what if you simply trash the whole prefs folder/ move it out of the way? AE should happily re-create everything with factory defaults. realyl sounds like one of your workspace files is damaged, perhaps due to a crash.

  • How can I find out the audio sampling rate of BetacamSP tape?

    Hi guys
    I'm trying to digitize BetacamSP tape. But I'm afraid if I might choose wrong setting...
    This tape is from very long time ago so we don't know which audio sampling rate we recorded with..
    How can I find out the audio sampling rate of this BetacamSP tape?
    Thanks:)

    The sampling rate is set by the Sony DVMCDA2 you are using, when the conversion is made from the analog input to the digital (DV) output. You should be outputting standard DV which is 16bit 48khz audio.
    Assuming you are in the US, your Easy Setup for FCP should be DV-NTSC, and then open the Log and Capture Pane and set the Capture Settings Device Control to Non-Controlable Device and you should be good to go.
    You will have to roll the deck manually and start and end your capture manually.
    You can download a user manual for the DVMCDA2 by clicking here.

  • After Effects warning: Could not create the file '/Users/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/13.0/dummy

    I have just downloaded the trial After Effects CC. I'm running Mavericks 10.9.4 on my Macbook Pro.
    When I try to launch After Effects, this message appears:
    "After Effects warning: Could not create the file '/Users/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/13.0/dummy'"
    I have followed the advice from other posts on this issue regarding resetting all of the permissions in the Adobe folder in my library to read and write , but it doesn't change anything. I still get the same message when I try to launch the program. Moreover, there is no After Effects folder in my Adobe folder, even though it's clearly in my Applications folder.
    I also uninstalled After Effects and tried to reinstall it, but to no avail.
    I sure would like to give it a try, as I was planning on purchasing it, but this is just one more issue in a long irritating line of issues that have arisen since trying to download it from CC.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I am having this problem and this response does not make sense. I made the "Preferences" ,"Adobe" & "After Effects" folder along with the 10.0,11.0,13.0,13.2 folders all read/write. Can't seem to find an answer.
