After Effects Rendering and Quality

I have 2 problems. The first is when I play my video it says it's not realtime and I've tried all sorts of things to try and fix it. My second problem is that when I'm playing my video it's clear and crisp but when I render it and play it the video is a terrible quality and very small.

If you look under the composition preview panel (in normal workstation) there are some options about playback like how large (the percentage drop down box) and a little more to the left there is one that says different resolution presets (half, full). That allows you to render and play back faster (if you use a lower setting).
If this was not what you were trying to do there are alot of other options that you can change after effects with if you click "edit", "Preferences", then the topic you need.

Computer specs for nice 3D rendering/ after effects rendering and video rendering in general ?

Hi there! I would like to know what the perfect specs for a laptop/workstation/computer are, so that I could do my creative work from home..my old laptop (Macbook Pro, 8Gb Ram, V 2010) is not good enough for 3D rendering, not even Video rendering or After Effects... I need to know what graphics card for eg or how much Ram or what I need to look for in a computer so that I won't get any error messages after rendering for half a day anymore...;) (--> very annoying) Money is not a first priority...i would first like to know, what the best option would be that one could have and then down size from there;)
I would appreciate every help:) my laptop is dying...i need something new and better;)
cheers stephs

Regardless of workflow, you want a workstation, not a laptop. You will get much more bang for your buck.
Also, as others have said, Windows machines tend to be better choices than Macs right now. And that's coming from two people who used to use/love Macs...
In general, you want the fastest clock speed on your processor that you can afford. You want as many cores as you can get with that nice, high clock speed.
Ideally, you want 4GB of RAM per core of your processor - MINIMUM 16 GB of RAM, (but get as much as you can afford).
You want an SSD for your cache and a good-sized regular hard drive to hold footage, renders, etc.
GPU matters for Premiere and any third-party plugins that use it (like Red Giant Universe, Element 3d, Mettle's ShapeShifter, etc.), but not for AE and not for Cinema 4D (which comes free with AE these days).
Again, this is just some generalization. For more specific info, we'll need to know more about what you're doing.
Also, you don't need to take our word for any of this; read what Adobe has to say on the matter: FAQ: What computer and components should I buy?

After Effects Rendering Problem (Please Help!)

Hello, I recently purchased adobe after effects CS6 for my Asus i7 laptop running windows 8 OS with a nvidia graphics card. I had just finished my after effects project and I went to render it out. I chose all my settings as H.264 and best settings. I click render and it starts off fast and rendering fine. About half way through the render it stops adruptly but does not signify any error message on the screen. The software shows that it is still trying to render but the render load bar does not move neither does the time lapse (time remaining).
If you have any idea what the problem may be or how to fix it please post a comment.
Thank You!

We need to know a lot more if we're going to help you. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"
> Renders stopping halfway through has usually nothing to do with the output format, so for the time being let's ignore the theoretical hubub about H.264
If the format being used is H.264 in a QuickTime container, this can be a problem, since that codec does have problems with the use of many threads, and these problems often occur partway through processing. There is more information about this here.

Severe audio problems in After Effects CS4 and MXF and more...

Hi!
I've been experiencing a lot of problems lately with several CS4 products.
First, and the worst, is that there seems to be some severe audio bug in After Effects when handling mxf-files. I pre-cut a project in premiere CS4, shot with a Sony EX1, and then imported the project in After Effects CS4.
In premiere everything worked fine and I had all the audio. In AE however the audio matched with the MXF-files disappeared (Yes I had the import audio box checked). All other audio worked fine from the music tracks and so on, but the MXF-files (MXF for NLE) was completely blank, the waveforms were completely flat. I checked every option there is in AE regarding audio and tried enabling and disabling XMP ID's and so on. After a lot of tweaking and testing I understood that the problem was not with any settings anywhere, the MXF-files lacked audio even if I started a new project and just imported the MXF-file.
The problem seems to be connected to when importing from Premiere. My colleague was editing a similar project on his computer in After Effects without problems, and he started out fresh in AE (didn't pre-cut in premiere). However, we tried to move my project to his computer, to see if the problem was connected with incompability with my hardware or such, and he got the same problem as me when he opened the project. Waveforms on MXF-files were completely flat. Certain confirmation that the problem was not connected with my computer appeared when he later reopened his own project, that had worked fine before, and audio was now completely gone - waveforms flat. An hour later, by chance, his audio suddenly popped back.
I have experienced this problems in two different projects in different forms (but both pre-cut in premiere). In the first, audio disappeared while previewing but was there when I ctrl-scrolled and rendered (no I hadn't muted audio in the preview panel). In the second, audio was completely gone even when rendered.
In both cases I tried saving and restarting the computer, reimporting from premiere, starting a fresh after effects project and only importing the mxf-files, changing the project settings, fps fixed to the correct instead of auto, changing output audio mapping, changing XMP, and so on in every possible way and combination I could imagine.
At my company our suspicion is that After Effects flags mfx-files imported from Premiere in some wierd way, to strengthen and ensure compatibility between the two - regarding different audio tracks, settings and effects from premiere (and this is almost what you could suspect that the XMP ID is for, but as explained with or without doesn't change a thing regarding this). We have no problem with the pure MXF support for AE, as MXF-files work just fine in After Effects if you import them directly and have not imported them through premiere earlier (but after a file has been "flagged" you seem to be sc***ed)
Anyone else experiencing this? Or am I missing something huge?
As additional notes, the dynamic link function seems extremely buggy and both premiere both sometimes complains about "dynamic link already in use and only one connection blah blah" even though only one link is used, and even though you restart the projects, programs, computer, whatever.
In furher addition Adobe Media Encoder (which also seems to be using some sort of dynamic link offspring) is super-buggy and most codec formats either doesn't start to render or just renders partially and then the program hangs. The problem have a connection with a process named pproheadless.exe eating upp all the RAM (4gbs).
(My workstation has been working smoothly for one and a half years and I have had very little problems with CS3 and "just" AE CS4. I am cautious of updates, don't have spyware and use Quicktime 7.5 as 7.5.5 is superbuggy and people seems to have problems with 7.6 and it doesn't fix the gamma issues anyway.)
Sorry if this was a long post but the problem is compl

Dude, that's what these forums are all about. Everyone in here says they dont work for Adobe, but they all act like apologists for what is clearly a disaster of a software release. My complaints aren't as specialized as yours, just very basic, and I wont go into all of them, because the list is long, and includes nearly every program in CS4.
I'm going for a refund, either from the retailer or my credit card company. Releasing software like this is dishonest.

After Effects crashed and wont open

Ok so a few days ago I was working on After Effects CS5 and it crashed while rendering. I've to open it many times but always gives me the same message. I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it but the problem remains. And also downloading all adobe updates and it still doesn't work. If anyone could please help, if anyone actually knows the problem.
This is the window that keeps appearing. Stressing me out!

To clear all preferences, delete the entire 10.0 folder. After Effects will recreate a fresh copy when it starts.
(Mac OS) <drive>/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/10.0
(Windows) <drive>\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects\10.0

ProRes422 effects rendering and graphics card

We are having problems with effects rendering and playing using Prorez 422 HQ.
Our system is: Mac Pro 2x 2.66 GHz dual core Xeon, 4GB RAM, with a NVidea GeForce 7300GT graphics card with 256 MB VRAM, pulling media off of a Facillis Terrablock.
We get the following error message:
"The effect "Desaturate" cannot be rendered in sequence of this size with the current graphics card"
The time line shows the effect as rendered, but it will not play in the canvas desaturated. It does show in the Browser desaturated.
Settings are at Safe RT, High Quality, full frame rate - we need to go out to tape.
Obviously, the error indicates we should use a different graphics card, but is this correct? Everything else I read indicates that this card should be enough to edit and do effects with in FCP. Is there a problem with using this card for Prorez or HD material? Is there a settings issue we should be looking at? What is the recommended card? Are there any links to the recommendations or known issues? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

I'm assuming that's an FXPlug filter. ATI cards handle FXPlug filters netter than nVidia cards, so if that's the problem, I wonder if one of these workarounds might help:
1) Place the clip, with enough heads and tails to allow for transitions in the final sequence, in a new sequence, apply the filer and see if it renders OK. Export that to a QT movie, import that back into the project and drop it into the final sequence in place of the unrenderable clip that's there now.
2) Put the clip into a new sequence, apply the filter but don't render. Export to a QT reference movie, and drop that into Compressor, and select the same codec as you are using for the final sequence and see it that will render.

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.

Error Code: 34 Mac OSX 10.8.4 for Photoshop CC, Bridge CC, After Effects CC, and Flash CC

Hello,
So I am installing all the CC versions of the software and all but Photoshop, Bridge, After Effects, and Flash installed without a hitch. On those 4 programs I get the same error code: 34. I am able to install the CS6 variants of them without any problem and run it. Here is the error code:
Exit Code: 34
Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example, ERROR:
-------------------------------------- Summary --------------------------------------
- 1 fatal error(s), 0 error(s)
FATAL: Payload 'Camera Profiles Installer_8.1_AdobeCameraRawProfile8.0All 7.0.0.108 {D5BBDFC0-C716-46B1-8908-85B0EA49FFA1}' information not found in Media_db.
I have been unable to fix this on my own and with what I've found online. I'll list what I have done so far to try to fix this issue. I have tried to use the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool but the issue is since PS, BR, AE, and FL won't install I can't clean them to try a fresh install. I tried installing the CS6 versions to see if it would dowload the 'Camera Profiles Installer_8.1".
Any help on fixing this ASAP would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
NB

Error Code: 34 Mac OSX 10.8.4 for Photoshop CC, Bridge CC, After Effects CC, and Flash CC

I just downloaded After Effects CC and I receive an error when opening

The complete error is:
I have just downloaded a After Effects CC and when opening it displays 'Last log message was: <140735240356624> <AppDirs> <5> Required Dir =

Does anyone know how to fix this, I've been checking different discussions and people says its a Plugin error but I have just downloaded the new version and no plugin added.
Any help will be really appreciated.
Thanks, Juan Jose.

System info? How did you donload? Did you log-in to Creative Cloud?

Adobe After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 wont work on OS lion

Everything works except Adobe After Effects CS6 and Adobe Premiere CS6. It always start up with the splash page then a pop up window opens that reads unexpected error occured send to apple.
I don't understand because Photoshop, illustrator and the other softwares worked fine.
I have tried uninstalling, re-installing, re-starting and even tried to download the After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 on creative cloud thinking that maybe those on the web will be more updated to address the issue.
But still I cant get it to work.
Please help.

After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 not available for installation for 32-bit systems

After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 require a 64-bit operating system and processor to be installed and run.
If you subscribe to Creative Cloud but use a 32-bit computer system, you will not be able to download and install Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6.
This issue primarily affects users on the Windows operating system, since all supported versions of the Mac OSX operating system are able to run 64-bit applications.

Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house. It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service. Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen. It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device. I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream. Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it. Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
Thanks for the help!

I just added a post to my blog about some new video tutorials that we posted (and some old ones that are still relevant):
video tutorials for After Effects CS4 (and some still relevant from CS3)

Thanks Todd!

Hi, so I'm wanting to buy After Effects CS6 and I have a MacBook Pro 15 inch, will the program work? If not what which After Effects version will?

I'm saving up to buy After Effects CS6 and I wanted to make sure the program will work on my Macbook Pro. I have the 15 inch screen. If that version doesn't work is there another version that will work with it?

Yes, After Effects CS6 will work on a MacBook Pro.
I see in your sig that it says that you're still using Mac OS X v10.5.1. Really? Because that would be a problem. After Effects CS6 requires v10.6.8 or higher of Mac OS X.

I have After Effects CS5 and need to work on a CS5.5 project. Can I still upgrade to 5.5?

I have After Effects CS5 and need to work on a CS5.5 project. Can I still upgrade to 5.5? I can't find it anywhere. I have a VERY limited budget.

Do you have $50? You could become a subscriber to the Creative Cloud for that and get the very latest version of AE (which is version 12.2 right now, whereas CS5.5 is version 10.5). You would get access to the Roto Brush, the 3d camera tracker, and a Lite version of Cinema 4D along with a ton of other enhancements and new features!
Adobe is only selling CS6 (version 11) these days and renting both CS6 (version 11) and CC (version 12).
For free you could download CS6 or CC and use the trial for 30 days.
Alternatively, you could download a trial of CS5.5 (down this page somewhere: http://prodesigntools.com/tag/ddl) and use it for the next 30 days.
Another option: you can look for third-parties selling their copies of CS5.5, but beware of shady people selling pirated software.

mocha-AE is not a separate application that you access or run from outside of After Effects. You use it from within After Effects.
