Encore DVD 2.0 on Windows: Composition background color of dynamically linked After Effects projects

Hello,
I used Adobe Dynamic Link to import an After Effects project, and I saw that in Encore the background color of a composition is set to black even though it is defined with another value in After Effects.
I had to open the project in AE and place a solid layer with the desired color behind all other layers.
What are the causes for this behaviour? Did I do something wrong or is it a bug?
Best regards,
Christian Kirchhoff

The composition background is transparent. It has per se no color and does not react to blendmodes and such. It's imaginable that Encore resets it to black for whatever reason (wouldn't know, as I design my menus always with full frame backgrounds to begin with). Still, I would consider it a bug regardless, so please fiel away:

  • Bridge CS4: Changing preview window's background color

    How can I change the preview window's background color? (default is black) It happens that I have some black images with alpha (transparent background)  and being all black they blend with the preview window's background color. can this be changed?? I looked everywhere and the only thing I found is how to change bridge's appearance, but not the preview window's bg color. Thanx in advance

    Try changing the thumbnail style to HQ or ?, and see if that makes any difference.  In Quick thumbs it may not display layers.

  • Why does my Encore DVD not play in Windows Media Player v.11

    My DVD's play properly in players and from various other DVD Software but not Windows Media Player v.11.  Most people I give my DVD's to view them on business computers, that only have WMP on them.  Is there a way to build an Encore DVD that will allow them to play in WMP?

    You can always build a Flash "DVD". Other than that you may be looking in the wrong place. Microsoft has neatly avoided any MPEG-2/DVD licensing and merely uses the respective libraries of otehr DVD software on your system, so when no such thing is installed, it never works.

  • Encore DVD 2.0 and Windows Vista RTM build 6000

    Whether or not you install Encore 2.0 separately or with the Creative Suite, Encore will not start up directly out of the box. To get it to run, you need to run it in compatibility mode:
    Windows XP SP2
    Disable Desktop Composition
    Disable Display Scaling on High DPI Settings.
    Run as Administrator (optional)
    Other caveats that I have found are that After Effects and Audition will make Windows turn off the new DWM (Aero), but they work just fine.

    Please help.

    Thanks again pointing out the  Adobe CC Cleaner URL
    When I said CCleaner previously, I was refering to a program that clean out garbages from PC (broken links, shortcuts, temp files, etcetera..)
    But late on, I have found out Adobe CC Cleaner (for Creative Cloud and CS5, CS6...) for cleaning Adobe craps after un-install.
    I just wish the hotline could mention it and not having me to swim to find out that tool does exists saving some precious time.
    Here is the status and what I have done to fix the problem:
    ...yeah, I was shooting in the dark...
    1. Uninstall completely Adobe Premiere Production CS5 (remove preferences)
    2. Run Adobe CCleaner (choose "all")
    3. Shutdown PC, reboot and Cleanup and Defragment C: drive
    4. Re-install completely Adobe Premiere Production CS5 (all products)
    5. Re-apply completely Adobe Premiere Production CS5 (all products)
           (note: for some reason, I need to do it three times to get the complete updates done, just retry and no changes between retry)
    6. Result : PremierePro still working fine, still hangs on Encore
           (Encore dialog screen was frozen as before from the begining and I had to use "Window-Task-Manager" to "end-the-task" of Encore)
    7.Conclusion: the problem is on the PC not AdobePremiereProduction
    8. Decision: Restore previous checkpoint of Window-7 Professional components
    9. Redone steps 1,2,3,4,5
    10. The result is the same as mentioned in point 6 and the conclusion is the same as mentioned in point 7.
    11. Ultimate Decision: Ground-zero style resfresh (see the follwoing steps)
    12. Separate Data from Window-7 (Move out all data from PC and unplug all connected portable hard drives
    13. Factory restore of Window-7 Professional using DVD-rescue (hard drive C: wiped out and reformatted)
    14. Apply all Updates for Window-7 Professional (over 121 updates, over 700Mb and many shutdown-reboot)
    15. Reconfigure Wireless for connecting to Internet
    16. Re-Install McAfee Antivirus
    17. Re-Install some usefull Softwares (Microsoft Office 2010 Professional, etcetera... Shareport for wireless USB Printer)
    18. Lot of Canon and Sony Softwares not re-installed because not used and not needed for now
    19. Clean install AdobePremiereProduction CS5 (no need to run Adobe CCleaner)
    20. Apply all updates for AdobePremierProduction CS5 (result is intermittent and have to retry few times to get it completed)
    21. Apply one by one updates for every single Adobe product to get it done\
    22. Shutdown and cleanup C: drive and defragment C; drive
    22. From now on, I am sure to have a FRESH an CLEAN PC with  a CLEAN CS5
    23. RESULT: AdobePremierePro-CS5 still working perfectly AS BEFORE
    24. RESULT: AdobeEncore-CS5 standalone do not hang ANY MORE
          but get error on MICROSOFT VISUAL C++ ? (with no details and some question marks) new
    24. Get message saying QUICKTIME not installed (with warning)
    25. Okay, install QUICKTIME from Apple to please CS5
    26. Shutdown PC, reboot PC just to be sure everything kick in properly
    27. RESULT: same as in point 24 (get error on MICROSOFT VISUAL C++ ? (with no details and some question marks)
    28. It's SHOOT in the DARK, ON MORE TIME, BABY
    29. Focusing on MicroSoft Visual C++ component: Comparing Installed products between my OLD PC and the freshly factory restored one
    30. The old PC has Microsoft Visual C++ 2005,2008 and 2010 (both x64 and x86)
    31. the new PC only has Microsoft Visual C++ 2008,2010 (both x64 and x86)
    32. Decision : Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 (both x64 and x86) (trying to have same softwares on both PC)
    33. Reboot PC after install
    34. AMAZING RESULT: Adobe-Encore-CS5 is functionning OKAY
    35. Testing time: I created a very small project in AdobePremierePro-CS5 and I was able to DynamicLink to Encore-CS5 and I was able to create on disk a DVD
          and I was able to play that DVD
    36. DID I DO ALL THOSE STEPS FOR NOTHING, WHY IT WAS SO COMPLICATED,
          I WILL TEST IT AGAIN WITH MY BIG PROJECT (76 Ggis and 1 hour 18 minutes Blu-Ray) sometimes this week
         I SPENT TOO MUCH TIME TROUBLESHOOTING AND I AM LOOSING MY CREATIVITY (....LOL...)
          BELIEVE ME, I AM EXHAUSTED AND NEED SOME REST.
    37. The End

  • Cant open Windows After Effects project in Mac

    Im unable to open an AEP that was created on windows on my Mac, we are both registered to cloud and have the same updated After Effects version 11.0.3. The windows version runs on After Affects CC and I don't, could this be the issue, im downloading it now.
    Thanks,

    Correct. AE projects are not backward compatible - unless explicitly saved down to CS6 from CC.

  • Change default background color in Dynamic pages

    Anyone knows how to change the default background color of a
    dynamic content page in WEBDB 2.2?.
    I want to display some information with a query in a Dynamic

    I try to force the the background color placing the html tag
    <td bgcolor=#FFFFFF> but there is still a beige strip at the
    left side of the table.
    Thanks

    Hi Richard,
    For about how to inspect page element, you can use IE Developer Tools:

  • Dynamic Link/ Replace with After Effects Composition between Premiere Pro CC to After Effects CC won't work. Says "importer reported a generic error"

    Trying to use the "Replace with After Effects Composition" to use Warp Stabilizer on a clip and transfer it back into Premiere Pro CC. The action is not  "grayed out" it allows me to click it and it opens up After Effects, then asks to open a new composition, but it doesn't open up the clip for me to work on it.
    Also is the Dynamic Link and Replace with After Effects Composition the same thing?
    Ive watched several tutorials and read threads but I still don't understand who to fix my problem.
    I have both CC versions of PP and AE, if that makes any difference.

    You have not provided any system information, no details about your sequence settings, your footage and whatnot. Nobody can even guess what may be going on.

  • Apply Different Background Color to Promoted Links Tiles

    Hello everyone,
    Does anybody know a way of changing the background color of each individual tile of Promoted Links? If possible, and if anybody is familiar, I would like to do it using a JS Link file.
    Thanks in advanced.
    Fausto Capellan, Jr - SharePoint Admin

    Hi Fausto,
    You could try the script below to set color without randomly change:
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {
    var id;
    var rgb;
    var rgb1;
    var rgb2;
    var rgb3;
    for (var i = 0; i < $("div.ms-tileview-tile-content").length; i++){
    id = $("div.ms-tileview-tile-content")[i].id;
    if(i%2 == 0){
    rgb1 = getRgb(0,i);
    rgb2 = getRgb(50,i);
    rgb3 = getRgb(150,i);
    }else{
    rgb1 = getRgb(150,i);
    rgb2 = getRgb(50,i);
    rgb3 = getRgb(0,i);
    rgb = "rgb("+rgb1+","+rgb2+","+rgb3+")";
    $("#"+id).css("background-color",rgb);
    function getRgb(n,i){
    var rgbNum = n + i *25;
    if (rgbNum < 255){
    return rgbNum;
    }else{
    getRgb(1,1);
    </script>
    Please set the parameter “n” with number per your situation in the function getRgb(n,i). The screenshot below is my result:

  • Can I change the background for the green screen after my project is completed?

    Hello,
    My daughter just made a full project in imovie then tried to add the green screen background and found that she has to redo the whole project.  Is there anyway for her to add this after the fact? 
    Thank you,
    Heather

    If these are purchase movies and not rentals, from iTunes, on your computer, you can select the movie in iTunes, use the key combination command-I to get the info on the movie. A info window pops up. Click the Options tab, a volume slider appears at the top of the window, slide the slider all the way to the the right, click the OK button at the bottom of the window. Then reconnect and sync your iPad, again, to the computer and wait for the movie to update to your iPad, then once everything is complete, eject the iPad from the left hand pane and disconnect. When you play the movie, again, from the iPad, the volume should be louder.
    I do not believe you can do this with rented iTunes movies, though as I do not think they are editable as a rental.

  • 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.
