Blur Effect glitch in CS5.1

All editing goes smoothly until any form of blur effect(s) are applied to a layer, to which this appears (fig.1 & 2). From then on this glitch reacts to size and changes shapes and colors and can't be removed unless I close out the file and save nothing. Sometimes it even still comes up after the fact, and I have to delete the file entirely. Anyone else have this issue or have any thoughts on solving it (other than updating to CS6) ?

Multiple (Legacy) Blur Effects plus various opacities cause file to crash upon Save. What to do?

We have to work with designers' files and we have some that have many layered objects that use Gaussian Blur effects created in CS5 (we're in CS6), plus various opacities, opacity masks, etc. Pretty much the kitchen sink. The files can't be saved except by using the most powerful Mac in the office. I have a Quad-Core processor running Snow Leopard, with 6 GB of RAM, and it's not enough. Any tricks? Perhaps saving without Use Compression or something?

Lots to be excited about. BUT...Just updated to 8.1 on one of my computers to test it out...
Sadly, the following issue is NOT fixed for me. Is it with new projects only? I haven't started a new project on 8.1 I've only opened an old project but the issue that I'm referring to which involves also a delay/freeze of anywhere from a few seconds to a MINUTE while the render bar goes from yellow to red and then back to yellow is still there. Boo.
On the list above...
Switching between sequences can turn the render bar red.
This issue is incredibly easy to replicate. I really do hope it gets fixed. Here are the steps:
1) Create two sequences with multiple short clips (the more clips the better)
2) Make sure GPU acceleration is enabled.
3) Add warp stabilizer to the clips in both sequences. Again, the more clips the longer the delay/freeze will be as the render bar goes from YELLOW to RED and then eventually back to YELLOW again.
4) Hit SAVE.
5) Now, toggle between sequences. You'll hit a short delay with a few clips stabilized and a LONG delay with lots stabilized. In my case this delay is around a full minute. The render bar will go from YELLOW to RED and then back to yellow...eventually.
6) Toggle back to the original sequence and the delay occurs again.
7) Once you've toggled between sequences and have gone through this delay, that's it, there is no longer a delay...UNTIL...(and here's the big kicker)...until the project is SAVED again. After that the issue returns when you toggle between sequences. Both saving manually and AUTOSAVING cause this issue. No way around it except not editing with GPU acceleration.
Not sure what the issue is...caching issue when saving maybe? Either way, it stinks and it's still there in 8.1. Big bummer.
Again, lots to be excited about with this release but I really was hopefully this specific issue was resolved.
Sigh.

Crash with Directional Blur effect on 12-core Mac with After Effects CS5

We've gotten a few reports of crashes when applying the Directional Blur effect (and modifying its properties) in After Effects CS5 on a 12-core Mac. See this post for details and a proposed workaround.
Please use this thread for feedback on this crash and the proposed workaround. Is it working for you? Do you have this crash on a different system?

The "Unexpected data type" error bug and the crash with Directional Blur have been fixed in the After Effects CS5 (10.0.2) update.
Let us know after you've installed the update whether this is working for you.

Lens Blur / Lenscare glitch

Hey,
I'm currently trying to put some nice DOF into a 3dsmax render. I loaded the render (EXR) with a seperat ZPass into After Effects, put it into 32 bits and as soon as I apply either After Effects' own Lens Blur effect or Frischluft's Lencare, I get this weird glitch:
It changes slightly, once I assign the ZDepth-layer, but largely remains the same. This glitch doesn't occur when I apply the effect in 16 bits or 8 bits, but sadly the lens blur effects don't work properly in these modes when handling EXR files. I tried both CS6 and CS5.5, same result.
I googled for hours but couldn't find anyone experiencing similar problems. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your reply. The Compander effect doesn't change anything, no matter which settings I apply. My working space color management is set to "off". I tried both sRGB, Adobe RGB and Apple RGB with "Lineralize working space" on and off, but it only made the glitch go white or produce an error message. By the way, my EXR-sequence is set to "Preserve RGB", which also doesn't have any effect on the glitch.

Premiere Pro CC crashes after 25% rendering, has particular issues with directional blur effect

I've only been using Premiere for a single project as my university specified we should use it, I'm not used to such a complex programme, or even video editing to be honest, so bear with me. (I'm following that guide on what information to add to questions on this forum)

Premier crashes when it gets to the point in my sequence where I used the directional blur effect (I'm pretty sure that's when it crashes anyway), it also can't export I assume because it can't render
this is like 4 seonds of video as well
I reaaaaally need it to work soon because I have university deadlines to meet and I need Premiere Pro to finish my work
Hope someone can give some advice

I tried it without the directional blur effect and it rendered fine, for some reason it just can't deal with directional blur...

I do fine until I "Add the Layer Mask". When I go to Lens Blur afterward, the image is the same and it blurs the entire image. I followed this video exactly as it said. Anyone else having this problem?

How do I turn on the GUI controls for the Focus Blur Effect in Final Cut Pro X

I can't find the setting that enables the GUI control overlay to manipulate the parameters of the Focus blur effect in Final Cut Pro X. When I have the clip and the focus effect selected I only get a center element overlay. At one point I had controls for all the other elements of this effect.
anyone know a shortcut or how I can toggle these controls back on?

I don't see any other screen controls either.
Maybe there was a change sometime, or maybe you were using a different effect?

Trying a simple CC Redial Blur Effect over an image !!

rHi,
I am trying a tutorial at How to create a quick and easy Light Beam Effect in Adobe After Effects - YouTube which applies the CC Redial Blur effect over an image it looks very simple and straight forward but for some reason its not working for me.
Here is the project file http://tonyalepski.heliohost.org/AE.zip
If someone can help me figure out what is the problem that will be a great help !!
Many thanks !!
Tonya

Your issue is quite simple. Tutorial author is using a PSD file with no background under the text (file with transparency) - you are using a jpg - file with gray background that is covering your rays. You have to remove background in photoshop and export it to AE without it or remove it in AE using some Keying plugins or simply masks.

How to identify and remove duplicate plugin effects from AE cs5 please?

hello,
i installed some trial plug in effects for AE and PPRO cs5
cycore, boris, trapcode
the PPRo went great
however, with the AE i get notices that multiple instances of 'such and such' effect
is installed more than one time...there's about 15 that give me a warning each time i start AE...
i tried my best to locate any duplicates but no luck
How do you identify and remove duplicate plug in effects for AE CS5?
thanks,
j

hello,
it is nice when you can answer your own question...
looked in 'common...media core...' and found the new blue trial plugins
also had the duplicates of the new blue plugins in the AE plugins 'effects' folder
deleted the plugins from the 'media core' folder
no more warning signs...
cool deal
back to work,

Script to Edit Gaussian Blur Effect

Hello
I have a complex piece of artwork which has to be scaled up by a factor of 10. No problem except the Gaussian Blur Effect will not scale.
Rather than go through each path and edit the blur amount (by a factor of 10) I had hoped I could write a script which would iterate through every path and if it had a Gaussian Blur Effect edit the value.
Looking in the AppleScript dictionary and online I can't see any way of accessing a path's Appearance or Effects.
I would be very grateful for some advice on this before I start the tedious process of manually changing the values.
Regards
Chris

Hello Mark
Thanks for your prompt reply. I thought as much. It's disappointing really.
The select filters will not unfortunately be helpful because the blurs are different so I can't select all blurred items because I don't want to set them all the same and equally I can't pick one and select all with the same blur amount because I don't know if I have changed all of the items.
I've just got my head down and am selecting them all individually and editing them!
Regards
Chris

Windows Vista 's Window Title Bar [Blur Effect]

Hello guys
im trying to make a blur effect like windows vista's window
title bar, where one can see the background application in a blury
way.
How can i do the same thing?
please guide
thanks in advance

That's unfortunate it was removed in Java 5. We use Web Start for headless applications (no GUI windows) and so at times would have multiple instances running on the same machine each using a different JNLP. Previously, we could see which instance was which by the console displaying the description tag information on the console's title bar. This was a great feature of JWS that now appears to be less functional. Sun, is there a way to get this back if you are listening?
The s: command doesn't display the JNLP description tags which we helped to identify the application. We want to use Windows task manager to see a list of all applications and from this list end any JWS process easily from the window. Without the title on the console window, there is no way to uniquely identify a particular application.
Regardless, our frustration in using JWS has increased with this new introduced limitation.

Image motion blur effect

Hi,
Anyone know how to acheive these motion blur effects,
like in this site. When you
click on an image it zooms up in a blur? (in the site click one of
the images behind the sketch book.
Thanks....

Before flash 8 we would use two images, blur and regular.
Blur can be very low quality so it's small in KBs and you
can't
see the quality while tweening. Tho in that particular site
you can actually see how low quality it is as the tween
happens
too slow. So, we would place blur image made in photoshop for
zoom
animation, and jump to frame with clean sharp one once the
tween
is done.
Flash has has BLUR filter. You can convert your image into
movie clip
and apply the filter to it.

Missing tools in Fast-Blur effect, Gaussian Blur effect, ...

Hey there,
I'm using Premiere Pro CC and I was just about to mask an object in my video with the Fast-Blur effect (Schneller Weichzeichner in german and as it can be seen in the attached image).
But when I apply this effect to my video it won't show me any tool I could apply it with. It's the same with any blur effect, such as the Gaussian Blur.
These tools should be right above the adjuster from 0 to 127. Any idea?
Thank you
Peter

If you want to use the mask tool you need to update to CC2014 (8.2). It looks like you are atill on CC7.

Gaussian Blur effect causing black frames when rendered.

I am only using one effect in my video, its the gaussian blur, and in the previewer it shows the effect being applied, however it shows random black frames in the previewer, I thought this was just a random previewer issue.
I then rendered the video but when the blur effect is being applied it is showing random black frames in the video.

Talked to customer support and found out that it was a duplicate Gaussian Blur effect on the same frame causing it to have some issues sigh*
But thank you for the info about the media cache, I did not know about that.
