FYI using other programs to input video like after effects

Like using after effects or motion or what have you. Export the video as a mov in the codec of Photo jpeg. It plays back in imovie perfectly Compeki!

Update:-
I restarted my computer and it appears these programs work now.
I should not have needed to do that, however it cleared the problem.
Sorry for the alarm.

How do I export a video from After Effects CC to an iPhone? I'm using a PC.

How do I export a video from After Effects CC to an iPhone? I'm using a PC.

Short answer, there is no simple "export to iPhone", but if you just want to have a movie that you can watch on you iPhone, just send yourself an attachment via email (other than .avi) and save it to your phone.
You can also use dropbox as an option.
With an app, you could mount your iPhone as an external drive. (check out iExplorer)
Also: check AME for h264 variations before you send it to yourself. There are presets for iPhone compression.

I always get an ERROR when I import avi videos in After Effects !!

Hi There
As I said in the title ,,
I always get an error when I import an (avi) video into After Effects CS5.5 ,,
and I don't Know why ,
in other hand I can open the same video I imported it in many media programs like : Windows Media Player-Quike Time-Windows Media Center- Real Player ,, except After Effect !
Although the same Program I used before Formatting the computer ,, but after Formatting the Projects file for Adobe After Effect didn't Open as well !!
The Picture I attached shows the Error ,,
Note:
the question marks in the pictures are for the Arabic name of the avi video ,,and this version of Adobe After Effect CS5.5 is trail ,,
I hope to find a solution for my problem ,,
and I'll Be Thankful

It worked , both what you said worked ,,
First I placed them on the desktop ,
Second I changed the names of the videos ,,
and both of them worked ,,
thanks a lot for your help ,

Bought a Quadro K2000 Video Card, After Effects CC Won't detect it?

I recently bought a Quadro K2000 for some simple 1080p video editing and rendering. Now there comes the problem, It seems like After Effects is not detecting the card, CUDA is enabled and the card is supported in the list. I have tried many solutions but unfortunately I still have this problem. Also with rendering a video my CPU still takes all the load instead of the GPU, therefore it goes really slow, 5 minute render takes up to 2+ hours. I bought this video card so my render also got quicker but it seems like After Effects just won't use the GPU for rendering. I have Ray tracing 3D rendering on.
Can someone please explain to me why my Quadro K2000 is not used for rendering the videos but instead it still uses my CPU. I hope the $500 was no waste of money for this card.
Thanks in advance,
Sjoerd

You have given us little information to go by. What exact version of After Effects? What operating system. Show a screenshot of your GPU Information dialog box in After Effects.
The Quadro K2000 was added to the list of cards tested and supported for use by the ray-traced 3D renderer in this version:

Problems importing iPhone 4 video into After Effects CS5 - Audio sync out

Hi there,
I am currently experiencing problems trying to import iPhone 4 video into After Effects CS5.
Firstly i'd like to note that the video plays perfectly fine on the iPhone, VLC and in Quicktime Player. The audio and video is in sync.
When I add the footage to After Effects the video becomes slightly out of sync with the audio. I have noticed this in RAM preview and also in renders I did just to test.
I also want to note that, both my iPhone and After Effects have latest software updates.
Thanks for your help

Thanks Rick and Mylenium
Thanks that worked!
I thought that changing the frame rate in the composition settings would have worked.
Instead what I should have done is to go the the footage in the Project Panel then right-click on the footage > Interpret Footage > Main... then Conform to frame rate: Frame rate: 23.986607 (or whatever more accurate frame rate your footage actually is)
I used the more accurate frame rate reading from VLC which went to 5 decimal places. I got that info from the top menu in Tools > Codec Information
Its a shame AE doesn't pick up on the more accurate fps. It seems that all the videos from my iPhone 4 have slightly different frame rates and I guess I will have to interpret each clip properly.
I hear that the frame rate on the iPhone 4 is different depending on the lighting? I wonder why that would be the case?
Hope this helps anybody else that might face this problem.
Cheers

Using RAM preview on a shorter period (after effects)

Hey there Ae users!
I'm trying to make a lyrical video with after effects, but to hear to vocals of my song i have to listen to it so i can place the words on the right time.
But now i'm using RAM preview to listen to it, but it works really inefficiently... Can anyone tell me a better solution to have the music right when i play the 'play button',
instead of having to listen the whole song before continuing on a guess?
Hopefully you guys can help me!

The best way to do what you are trying to do is to open up Premiere Pro and do speech recognition on the audio track then import the audio into After Effects and you'll have labeled markers for every word exactly in the right place. If you create a transcript of the words then your speech recognition will be perfect. I work this way all the time.

The alternative to that is to press the . key to run an audio preview and then use the * key on the numeric keypad to set markers on the audio track.

I am having trouble rendering a video in After Effects CS6

I am having trouble rendering a video in After Effects CS6. My video is only 12 seconds long. I am using the "Ray-Trace" feature". Whenever I try to render this video I get this error message.
Also, the text turns into a giant black boxy blob whenever I turn off the Ray-Trace effect.
Somebody please help

That's a question for the Adobe forums.

My iphone 5 using other account, now i would like to change another apple ID. May i know how to change it?

sir,
im using iphone 5 & using other apple ID, but now, i would like to change another apple ID on my phone. may i know, how to change it & what is the procedure?

Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores. Tap on the Apple ID, choose to sign out, then sign in with a different Apple ID.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Do the same thing there.... Or, I think you may have to 'Delete Account', but choose to keep the data on the phone.

Other Programs Like After Effects.

Are there any programs that 'Act Like Adobe After Effects'? A small non-profit is looking for one.

Добрый день.
Прошу прощения, если пишу не в ту тему, но всё равно надеюсь на Вашу помощь.
Мы обзвонили всех Ваших представителей в Москве, но некто не смог нам помочь.
Существует программа Adobe After Effects на английском языке и уже вышло много версий но русского языка в ней нет.
Когда будет версия с русским языкам или хотя бы русификатор к ней?
Возможно заказать у Вас русскую версию?

Using Adobe Media Encoder to create H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV videos from After Effects - 6/23/14

Very disappointed with this choice. I will definitely be seeking to uninstall this version and go back a version or two. Two many extra steps to export an mp4 now. And now we also have to wait longer for a mp4 to render and can't take advantage of the machine's hardware? You guys fighting mp4 as a standard, forcing us to an additional product, or what? I'll be sharing my extreme disappoint with this 'upgrade' with the rest of the developers at work and who just had it installed. I'm not seeing this being too popular opn social media either. Seems like you only did what was best for you.Thanks for showing us who's boss.

Not necessarily. You can render an intermediate codec with AE's render queue (thus using all of AE's power to render) and then drop that file into the Adobe Media Encoder.
This was the workflow I've always used - even when AE could encode with MP4. Why? Well, because AE sucked at MP4 encoding. You couldn't even do multipass endoding with it!
This is a useful workflow in a few ways:
1. You have an archive-quality file to come back to in the future.
2. You can use AE's full power to render.
3. You can use AME's superior encoding capabilities.
4. You can tweak your compression settings and try various encoding parameters to improve the quality while decreasing the bitrate of your product WITHOUT having to re-render the AE comp every time you try since you're working off of the intermediate file. I mean, imagine a comp with several 3d layers, depth of field, shadows from multiple lights, and 250,000 particles from Particular. What if you made an MP4 and then the client needed a smaller file size or the MP4 you made was too heavily compressed and you needed higher quality? I don't know about you, but I'd much rather only render that 18-hour monster once.
This workflow actually saves time for many people.
And, in any workflow, this produces a better product.
Again, this is what I did even when AE could encode MP4's.
Frank VA wrote:

They aren't fighting MP4 as a standard, in fact, when Adobe folks pop in here and answer questions, that's often their recommendation for delivery codec.
Frank VA wrote:

Listen, I understand your frustration. Knocking out a quick compressed file from AE for client review is handy.
However, maintaining the h.264 encoding in AE took up development time. There are only so many person-hours per week for the (relatively tiny) AE team to spend on building each version of AE.
I never liked AE's h.264 encoding - AME has always done a superior job. Since we have AME to do our encoding, I would rather the AE team focus their effort on improving AE as a compositing and motion graphics tool rather than as an encoding tool.
Again, I get the frustration. I can see where it feels like they are doing what's good for them and not us, but I think, in the long run, this way is better for us. Right now, the majority of the AE team is working on making AE faster to work with and faster to render. The sooner we get a relatively bug-free version of that, the better! (Especially for folks on Mac OSX Yosemite who can't RAM preview smoothly in any version of AE).
And at least the After Effects team has been very transparent about things - for example, this blog post talks about their reasoning: using Adobe Media Encoder to create H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV videos from After Effects

Importing video into After effects, premiere pro and media encoder result in freezing

I have been trying to import a 17 minute long mp4 video shot with a go-pro into after effects and premiere pro with the result of the program locking up each time. My next thought was try to import it into media encoder and change the file format but it is causing media encoder to lock up as well. Any thoughts would be sincerely appreciated

Sounds like something might be fishy with the video file. You might try converting with different software, which can often be more forgiving than Adobe tools.

What are the best setting to export video from after effects to get the best video quality ?

Hi
I am editing a raw time lapse in after effects and also some short video clips I would like to export them from after effects and upload them online afterwards but i get a bit lost in exporting settings and formats and mbps..
What are the best settings to export a video and get best quality(high) in full hd 1080 ? in 4k ? and what would be the best setting to export animations/logo/intro and get best quality ?
Thank you very much.

Thanks for reply !
I used until now quicktime in H264 codec was that OK ?
two more questions :
what are the export settings for 4k files for web/you tube ?
to play on my PC using windows media player or Quicktime player and getting the best quality ?
Thanks in advance.

When diagnosing a failed render the first thing you should look for is the difference between the failed project and one that is successful. What is different? What changed?
Before we can get any idea of why these renders are failing we need to know the encoding settings and the type of source footage. Encoding Failed does not tell us anything useful in diagnosing the problem. If your AE project is using effects or footage that is clogging up memory or has some other problem then we should know about your AE comp as well. That means we need to know what version of AE you are using, what effects are applied, and anything else that is different in the project that fails and a simple project that does not.
