After Effects unable to render error -1610153464

I use Adobe CS6. Today, I upgraded to CC. I work on a MacBook Pro with 8GB RAM, and the latest OS X, Mountain Lion. Here's my dilemma.
Although I own the CS6 Master Collection, I have never used After Effects. So, I am an AE newbie. For years I have mainly used the other apps, PhotoShop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, Flash, InDesign, etc.
I wanted to prepare a presentation for my company. I purchased an After Effects template that I liked. http://videohive.net/item/new-company-presentation/5182042
When I opened the template I received the following message: "After Effects: this project must be converted from version 9.0 (Windows) and will open as an untitled project. The original file swill be unchanged."
After quite some time creating and preparing all my samples in a Quicktime movies I was ready to customize the AE template.
Following the AE template author's instructions I was able to customize the template, editing text, importing my movies. When I added the "Final Comp" to the Render Cue, and then started rendering, I immediately got the following error: "After Effects error: Rendering error while writing to file '/Users/...Final Comp.mov'. An output device module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupt. (-1610153464)"
I tried rendering the original unedited file. Same error.
I tried researching solutions.
I turn off my firewall. "blockage in the communication between After Effects and the Adobe QT32 Server." http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2011/02/troubleshooting-quicktime-errors-with-after-ef fects.html
I tried removing a third-party Quicktime importer components. http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/startup-screen-hangs-premiere-after.html
I tried exporting the file from AE to Premier Pro. But, got the following message when opening the file in Premier:
"The preset is used by one or more sequences in this project requires third-party components that could not be located. These sequences will be modified to use a custom sequence setting instead. To continue editing using the original preset, quit the application without saving the project, then install any third-party components that are required and reopen the project." Note: The author of the AE template said that no external plug-ins were used, that everything was created in AE.
Also, when opening the file in Premier, a "Load Project" window open listing the following:
"Video filter missing: AE.ADBE Color Control
"Video filter missing: AE.ADBE Fill
"Video filter missing: AE.ADBE Slider Control"
I attempted to do a render from Premier anyway. But, got the following error: "Could not connect to Adobe After Effects. Please verify that Adobe After Effects and Adobe Dynamic Link components are installed." I checked, They are!
I finally "bit the bullet" and upgrade to, and installed the Creative Cloud version of After Effects hoping that this may be a solution.
Today, I installed After Affects CC. This time when I began the render, AE started to render. Then, after a couple seconds of video being generated the same errors reappeared!
Can anyone offer some guidance as to how I can get this resolved?

Today, I created a whole new project. Imported an Adobe Illustrator file with five layers. One background layer, the rest were text layers. The entire project is 11 seconds. I made some minor effects to the text in After Effects, position, and opacity. Went to render it, and the same error appeared.
I have the error log file if it will help.
Please help.

After Effects "Output Module" render error & rendering advice

Hi all,
I've been working on an AfterEffects project for a few weeks and never had a problem with rendering it before, but in the past few days it has started giving me error messages every time I start a render.
After rendering about 48 - 60 frames of a 2 minute long composition (it doesn't seem to hang in the same place every time), the render freezes and I get this error message:
After Effects error: An output module stopped responding. The file may be damaged or corrupted. You may need to restart After Effects.
The project is really huge -- about 1022 3D layers, mostly all created in Photoshop, as well as some Quicktime movies. Motion blur is turned on for everything. Although the project is big, I have a 3D camera that animates through the scene, so not all the layers are onscreen at all times.
I haven't added anything significant to the composition lately, I've just been adjusting keyframes, so that would lead me to believe the render isn't failing because of a corrupted element.
I'm using Adobe After Effects CS5, Version 10.0.2.4. I have some 3rd party plug-ins installed (Trapcode, Magic Bullet Looks, Optical Flares), but I'm not using any 3rd party effects on this project, though I plan to in the future.
I'm running the project on a 2 x 2.66 Ghz 6-Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro with 14 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM, using OS X version 10.6.8.
Here is some information about my project:
1280 X 720, Square Pixels, 23.976 Frame Rate, Rendering Plug-in: Advanced 3D. For my preferences, I don't have "render multiple frames simultaneously" checked, and I keep 4 GBs of RAM reserved for other applications. I also have OpenGL disabled.
And finally, here are some screenshots of my Render Settings and Output Module for this project:
I'd really appreciate any feedback or advice on how to troubleshoot this error. And I'd also love to hear if the experts on this board have render settings tips or advice on how to set up my render preferences for my particular machine.
Thanks and hope all is well,
Dan

Hey Dan,
Really nice post in regards to info provided initially. It's rare to see that these days.
The weird thing in your screen shots that I see, is that in your Output Module Settings, the audio bit-depth settings seem to be grayed out for some reason. Are you using some sort of audio hardware that is customized, or perhaps some compressed audio in your project? Here's what I mean:
Thoughts? Aside from that, your project does sound as if it is pretty intensive, so I'm sure the problem could be occuring elsewhere...

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.
Processor - Intel Dual Core
Ram - 4GB
O/S - MS Windows 7 Professional 32bit
Video render settings,
Format - H.264

After Effects Unable to Allocate Enough Memory to Render Current Frame/ MeshWarp problem.

Hello,
I am currently working with 17 layers in AE- CC 2014.1.1 (13.1.1) Most of the layers have multiple effects, including the "Mesh Warp,"- which happened to have been freezing my computer constantly. I finally had to change computers... First, I was unable to render these layers, because there is not enough memory space. So I went back to editing. After adding a couple of video layers, I went to play back, and got the above message: "After Effects Unable to Allocate Enough Memory to Render Current Frame"
I changed my "cache" folder to my external hard drive. I also upped the cache space from 23MB to 50MB. But I am still getting this error.
In terms of the Mesh warp: Once i brought the effect to the video file, and tried to move the grid, I got the rainbow spinny ball. It went away after a while. As soon as I clicked on ANYTHING- i got the wheel again. This continued until I "Forced Quit." I don't know what thats about...
This is the info for the Composition Settings/ computer I am working on. i am trying to give as much information as possible. This is for my Senior Thesis! Can anyone please help me ASAP?
Best,
Julia

What are these layers you're working with? What size? What format? What Codec? What color space?
What happens if you turn on Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously (reserving at least one core for other programs)?

I assume you mean GB, not MB...
What happens if you save to version 12 and try to work on it there? (If you don't have an older version installed, try it: Creative Cloud Help | Install, update, or uninstall apps)
Have you tried rebooting your machine recently? Do other programs/apps//software run normally?

Whenever i try to open my after effect it just says error 15 n dont work plzz help me out

whenever i try to open my after effect it just says error 15 n dont work plzz help me out

We cannot know. you are not telling us anything about your system, what kind of project, what footage etc. We don't even know what version of AE!!! In any case, run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, reinstall the program. If the issues persist, we realyl need a lot more info to help you.

Installing After Effects on headless render nodes

I'm trying to install After Effects CS5.5 render engine on a set of render nodes that don't have DVD drives (or any optical drive). I was advised to copy the install files from the DVD to the desktop via flash drive. I did that and the install starts OK but then it asks for the 2nd disc. I copied that disc's content to the desktop also but I can't get it to find it. Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks,
Scott

You should be able to copy all of the files off of the disc into the same folder and it should work, but if you are having trouble, you can download the trial of CS5.5.
The trials are located here - http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-direct-download-links.html. There is a forum post about installing previous trials - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369.
On the download page, please read the whole page before clicking the links - people miss some important information on the page that causes issues.

After Effect cs4 cannot render jpg on network on mac but render locally okay

After Effect cs4 cannot render jpg on network on mac but render locally okay
We use intel mac pro as workstation, and our servers are windows 2003 servers.
After Effect cs4 H264 render on network without any problem bud jpeg not.
Thank You
Ayhan.

Perhaps you must just enable the Allow Encoding using Legacy CoDecs option in the Quicktime control panel on the network machine or else some of that may not show up. Of course make sure QT is installed correctly in teh first place, as Todd and Rick said. On a server, you may need to set special group policies for that to work, also.

After Effects Invalid Table Address Error 83 :: 2

So, when I want click on Effects -> Animation Presets -> Text -> and use the animations in there, I would have the error of After Effects Invalid Table Address Error 83 :: 2. I'm using Adobe After Effects 2014.2 Release Version 13.2.0.49
Other of my adobe products are working fine, even media encoder and premiere pro.
My computer is windows 8.1, 64 bit.

Sounds like you have a corrupted font. Try changing the font in the Text Panel to something common like Arial before you add text. If that doesn't work examine your font list for some odd fonts.

After Effects CC (AERENDER) licensing errors for multiple CORE renders on a SINGLE machine.

I am hoping someone can assist me with an issue I am having in After Effects CC, or know who I should reach out to.
I currently use SMEDGE as a render farm tool. It can launch multiple instances (per core of a licensed machine) of aerender to render a project. This was worked beautifully on CS6, but with CC is breaks. It shoots out the following error: "After Effects error: Unable to obtain a license. Please run the full application to correct the problem or get a more detailed message." My machine is licensed with me logged in and I can run AE CC GUI with no issue.
Is there a way to activate multiple aerender nodes on a single licensed machine? I have an 8-proc machine that used to be able to launch 8 instances of aerender on CS6, since A.E.CC, no more.
Any help would be appreciated as it has cut my render time down drastically.
Thanks,
-Eric

Yes.
... though we think that what we have in store for next year will make such little hacks seem silly. (We have a large portion of our team working on some projects that should make folks like you who want faster rendering very happy.)

Premiere-After Effects Dynamic Link render times vary wildly after minimal composition changes

Here is something strange that happens a lot to me.
I'll have a sequence in Premiere Pro CC 2014 that is entirely or largely an AE comp that I have dynamically linked. I'll use a specific case as an example, but it's happened with various projects.
In this most recent one the visual (but not audio) of my Premiere sequence is one AE dynamically linked comp of about 90 seconds. It's more or less a fancy slide show- some photos with moves, some text, motion blur, masking, maybe a few filters. Fairly basic stuff as far as After Effects goes.
Anyhow, I like to render the sequence in Premiere and then watch it down with music to see if the timing works and make adjustments from there. That's my usual workflow. The strange thing is that when I render, the render times can vary tremendously. With this particular project, one time rendered in about 2 minutes in Premiere. I watched it down and I noticed a spelling error, which I fixed. Just changing one word of text in AE. This, of course, causes the entire linked comp to need to be rendered again in Premiere. This time when I go to render, it took about 20 minutes and it only got about 70% of the way through. A huge difference and all I changed was a couple letters, which shouldn't impact how intensive of a render is needed. What I usually do is cancel the render when it takes that long, then quit Premiere, reopen, and render right away after I open. When I do this, after the application restart, the sequence will then render in the faster approximately 2 minute duration. Almost invariably this is true.
So I end up quitting and restarting Premiere a lot to get the faster render times. But of course that's annoying.
What is going on here?
I know that some might have critiques of the workflow and watching in Premiere and the fact that one letter change forces the entire sequence re-render. I know I could break it up and there are ways around that. But I am not interested in such critiques. My work flow actually is quite efficient when the 2 minute render time happens. Just not when it takes 10x more than that for the same thing. Why are there these huge render time swings?
My guess is that some cache gets filled up, so when the application is just started, and the cache is empty, the render works much better. But I really do not know.
Help please.

There is currently a bug that causes Dynamic Link performance to be poor when the main After Effects application is running. (The underlying issue is that the main After Effects application is sending many more messages during Dynamic Link than it needs to.)
The easy workaround is to quit the main After Effects application when using Premiere Pro to process a dynamically linked After Effects composition.
This bug is fixed in an update due to be released in less than two weeks.

After Effects Won't Render Using H.264

OK, I am trying to use H.264 codec but I keep getting an error and I can't figure out why. I select (Composition > Add to Render Que), then I select "Output Module > Custom and select "Lossless" and select H.264 and then get the message below:
"After Effects: For reliable output with H.264 compression, please choose it directly from the Output Module Format menu instead of via QuickTime. (44 :: 81)"
So I then did as it said and selected the drop down arrow beside Output Module and then selected "Custom" and then selected H.264. and then I get the same message:
"After Effects: For reliable output with H.264 compression, please choose it directly from the Output Module Format menu instead of via QuickTime. (44 :: 81)"
An idea what's going on? Why does it give me this message when I am doing it the way it is telling me? How can I render using H.264?
Thanks

Are you using the trial version of After Effects?
from "Supported output formats":
"The free trial version of Adobe After Effects software does not include some features that depend upon software licensed from parties other than Adobe. For example, mocha for After Effects, some effect plug-ins, and some codecs for encoding MPEG formats are available only with the full version of Adobe After Effects software."
H.264 is an MPEG format (MPEG-4, part 10).
