Filter not working in After Effects

Hi there,
I've improved my Sobel Edge Detection Filter a little bit and tried to use it in After Effects on some video material. But to no avail. It simply outputs a black frame. In Photoshop and Pixel Bender itself it works like a charm. But not in AE. Could somebody please tell me why?
Here's the code: http://pastebin.com/TUbiGFND
Thanks a lot!
Greetings,
Hendrik

Pixel Bender and After Effects act totally oddly. I really don't get it.
I have been trying the following lately:
define two parameters float3x3 to replace the constant matrices in the edgeX and edgeY functions by two dynamic ones. They are not editable in after effects but behave differently from the constantly defined matrices although they have the same values. With two (uneditable) parameters I can see some effect in AE that is different from the one in Pixel Bender IDE but at least there is something happening. I get completely white frames which I can turn into something visible by turning down the parameters Bias (to zero) and Factor (to something less than five or so). With constantly defined matrices inside the functions edgeX and edgeY nothing happens. The image simply stays black.
Where is the difference between a parameter float3x3 and a local variable float3x3 with absolutely and definitely the same values? And why does AE act differently from Pixel Bender IDE?
I also have been playing around with region reasoning functions needed and changed but I can't by the life of me get any results by altering them. Not even any negative results. They seemingly do nothing.

  • CV Artsmart not working with After Effects CC 2014

    I'm trying to do a simple Path Spread animation with CV Artsmart (Cineversity plugin) but when I open the animation in After Effect CC with Cineware the animation does not display, it works perfectly in Cinema 4d r15 ...is this a bug or known issue, is there a work around?
    k.regards

    Not all plug-ins work with Cineware.
    Also, make sure that you are targeting your installed edition of Cinema 4D R15, rather than the bundled Cinema 4D Lite, as described here:

  • Fractal Noise-Evolution not working in After Effects.

    Pretty fresh to after effects. Following this tutorial until I notice that Evolution wasn't having an effect and I noticed the numbers were red. I assume it's a limitation of my computer in some way but I'm not sure what or how to resolve it.

    We need more details. If you apply fractal noise to a layer and animate evolution then you should see a change. If you downloaded a sample project file then there may be an expression attached to evolution. That's the only way that the numbers would not be able to be changed. Select your layer with Fractal Noise applied and press the e key twice to reveal any expressions.

  • Dissolves imported from Premiere project not working in After Effects

    When I import a Premiere project into After Effects all the dissolves turn into separate layers (black solids). There is no opacity information being imported for some reason.

    You haven't given us much to go on here.  What exactly are you doing and what exactly happens when you try?  Which specific version of each program are you using?  (Go to Help>About...)
    On a side note, a simple, brief thread title is all that's needed.  Something like "After Effects Issue" would be fine.  You don't need the full question there.

  • HT1338 Application "FINDER"not responding,Desktop files disappeared & " also "Trash" not working svn after relaunching several times.

    Application "FINDER"not responding,Desktop files disappeared & " also "Trash" not working svn after relaunching several times.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process (Finder) in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. 
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • Best laptop for working with after effects

    I need a laptop for work with adobe after effects and some others. Anyway I need laptop wich will not cost more than 1400€ and which will have inside intel core i7, 4 GB of memory or more and Nividia graphic card. Somthing more pls dont say the apple is the best beacuse i dont like it very much.
    Thanks.

    4GB is a rather small amount of RAM for working with After Effects. If you can get a computer with more RAM, I recommend doing so.
    For After Effects CS5, the graphics card (GPU) doesn't matter as much as RAM and CPUs, so focus on RAM and CPUs first.
    In general, a laptop is not going to give you the same performance as a desktop computer of the same price. If you need a laptop, fine; but don't be surprised when performance isn't as good as you might like.

  • Adjustment layer not working (has no effect)

    I'm having a problem with adjustment layers... Here's what works :
    - I can add an effect (Blur) to a normal layer, and I see what it does in the Comp preview window and when I render the movie.
    What doesn't work :
    - I add an adjustment layer above everything in the timeline, add an effect (Blur) to this layer, but then nothing happens neither in the Comp preview window or the final render !!
    I've tried moving layers around, enabling anything related to effects, and still haven't managed to get this to work.
    After effects 6.5 (old I know... but it works just like CS3 & others, and just takes 150MB of disk space !!)
    Win XP
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks !!

    Of course! how silly,
    http://imgur.com/RfyegUk
    In all the video tutorials I've seen, I've done almost the exact same manipulations and they always have the effect visible in the "XYZ Comp" window. Not on my machine, and not even when I render the final movie. Very frustrating.
    Thanks

  • Work with after effects, mac mini i5 or i7 ?

    Hi! I'm working with after effects and Cinema 4D, mac mini i5 is better than i7? I don't know if the video card has influence (HD Graphics 3000 de Intel vs adeon HD 6750M de AMD con 512 MB), but the CPU maybe is more important.
    Thanks!
    rompelomo

    As otehrs have said the i5 is probably all the speed you will need, but in the future the i7 may well deliver a bit if an edge. I see no reason not to go directly to 16GB, you could probably get by with 8GB but "get by" is the operative phrase. SSDs have been mentioned, but You should consider the 1.1TB Fusion drive. As a practical matter the overall performance will be VERY close to that of all SSD, but a lot more capacity at a much lower price than SSD.
    Since you are a web developer, I will share my "site development" secret with you. I had a rather ancient Mac mini I was not using. It was old and slow, but could run Mavericks and Server. I have it setup in a closet, running headless (no monitor or keyboard) and controlled from my Mac mini workstation. It is a great place to test new sites without having to go live. I do occasionally catch a problem running on my remote site server that I missed testing on my development Mac mini. Since I already had the old Mac mini my total outlay for my test site turned out to be $30 for the Server app.

    You might try a "hard reset" where you remove battery and AC charger, hold down power button 20-30 seconds and then reassemble and turn on. Reset BIOS (F10) to default settings, too.
