Missing elements when exporting in After Effects CC

Hi there,
I really hope someon is able to help me with this problem.
I have this animation in After Effects. It contains PSD files of lines. I animated the lines using the Stroke-tool form AE.
When pre-rendering the animation does what it's supposed to do. It works fine.
However, whenever I try to export it through Render Queue, it seems to forget just two PSD elements in my project. I can already see the animation will not export as it's supposed to do while rendering in the render Qeueu.
I've tried several things:
- Change my PSD files from CMYK to RGB and replace footage in After effects
- Copy my original PSD files and replace footage in AE
- exporting in different kinds of files (MOV/AVI) H264
Can anyone help me? I've searched on Google but couldn't find anyone with the same problem.
Further info:
- I'm using Adobe CC (legal of course )
- Windows 8
- I've updated my computer with every update available
Please help?
Thnx!

What is the full version number of AE that you're using? 12.2.1.5? 13.2.0.49?
Can we see a screenshot of your timeline panel with the missing layers? Are they set to guide layers?

Error when exporting from After Effects into Media Encoder

Hi there. I am using After Effects CC and am trying to export>add to Adobe Media Encoder CC. Upon doing so, instead of the file being placed into Media Encoder CC, I get an error message
I just updated to most recent update of After Effects via the Cloud today but no difference. Instead, After Effects just creates a folder on my system to house a duplicate composition file with "tmpAEtoAMEProject" at the beginning of file name. I can use the render queue out of After Effects just fine.
Can someone give me a solution to how I can export out to Media Encoder CC? Probably something simple I am just missing. I don't know much/can't find much about how to know if Adobe Dynamic Link components are installed. Oh, and I have also tried to just drag the files into Adobe Media Encoder too but I still get this warning. If it helps, I am on an imac OSX 10.8.5. Thanks!

Hey there. Yes, I have uninstalled AE, restarted, and reinstalled. Still get the same error shown in screenshot in my original question posted.

16:9 video sides cut off when exported from After Effects

When I export a 16:9 video from After Effects, the sides are cut off in the exported clip. I've tried different export settings and and my composition settings are correct, from what I can tell. Does anyone know why this could be happening?
Thanks!

and my composition settings are correct, from what I can tell.
But are they really? We cannot know, because you don't say anything about your exact render settings and comp settings, which is what is required here. You could be using an unsuitable CoDec or even crop your output inadvertently by using a specific output module setting....

Total PC freeze when exporting from After Effects CC

Hi guys,
I'm having quite a serious problem exporting AFX files (via Media Encoder CC) and also occationaly during RAM previews.
The problem itself is fairly simple. After a varying amount of time my PC will completely freeze and become totally unresponsive. This always seems to happen on more complex scenes involving raytracing, or C4D Lite layers and sometimes just generally complex compositions. I'm forced to restart my computer losing all render progress and any unsaved progress. A couple of times the crashes have totally messed up my AFX, corrupting any open saves and corrrupting my custom panel layouts (very annoying).
I recently upgraded my PC to a fairly beefy spec primarily to cope with complex projects like these. Here are the specs from DxDiag:
System Information
Time of this report: 8/8/2013, 15:08:15
Machine name: ALPHA-ONE
Operating System: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (6.1, Build 7600) (7600.win7_gdr.130318-1532)

Available OS Memory: 8090MB RAM
Page File: 4406MB used, 11773MB available
Windows Dir: C:\Windows
DirectX Version: DirectX 11
DX Setup Parameters: Not found
User DPI Setting: Using System DPI
System DPI Setting: 96 DPI (100 percent)
DWM DPI Scaling: Disabled
DxDiag Version: 6.01.7600.16385 32bit Unicode
I did notice after I had upgraded that AFX didn't support my new GFX card (Geforce 760) but I found an article that suggested a work around for this which did allow me to use the 760. I don't know if doing this is known to cause problems with renders? My GFX card has the latest drivers. I've tried disabling and enabling the GPU in AFX but either way the crashes occur. I also tried turning off/on Multicore processing as this has given me grief before. But that made no difference.
My After Effect instalation is also the latest version.
These crashes don't happen in other programs like C4D Lite (when rendering directly inside that program), or when playing recent and demanding games.
I have 16GB of RAM installed but seem to only be able to use 8GB as available memory in AFX, which also shows in the Dxdiag report. I don't think this could be causing total system freezes though and do plan on trying to fix this issue when I get time.
Thanks for any help!
-Nick.

It looks like DxDiag DOES realize that you have 16GB installed, but for some reason only 8GB is provided to the OS.
This is very odd. Since it detects the full 16GB, I doubt that your RAM is faulty/unseated/etc. If that were the case, it would not be recognized as 16GB.
What CPU and motherboard are you using? It's possible that a setting in your BIOS is to blame.
I've seen this happen before on computers with integrated graphics. They will use a portion of your system RAM as video RAM. But this is typically only 256MB-512MB at most...not a whopping 8GB!
Yeah pretty odd I know. My BIOS only reads 8GB of the RAM (doesnt mention 16GB at all I dont think), Resource Monitor and DXDIAG say 8GB of available memory and 16GB of total memory. I did Memtest 86 for 12 hours last night and whilst it came up with no RAM errors it also only detected half of my RAM anyway.
I decided to do some experimenting today and tested each 8GB stick on its own in DIMM slot A2 (the manual recommends this slot for single sticks of RAM). PC wouldnt boot at all with one of the sticks but would boot with the other. So I've left my PC with that one 8GB stick in now as I suspect the other one could be faulty. I dont know if this is the cause of my orinal problem but I plan on trying to render some of the projects that were freezing my PC before and seeing if I still get those freezes. If I don't then hurray problem solved! If I do then I'm stumped as to what the cause could be.
Oh and my motherboard/CPU are:
CPU: AMD Piledriver FX-8 8350 Black Edition 3.50GHz @ 4.60GHz CPU
Motherboard: Asus 990FX Sabertooth
I agree about the BIOS settings potentially being the problem, I plan on monday to ask the site I bought the bundle from about this and see if I can get replacement RAM and/or advice on whether there's anything specific I can do that would fix this. I tried googling the problem many times but almost every thread I come across is just people who don't realise their 32bit OS cant take more than 4GB of RAM which isn't the issue I'm having.

Missing elements when exporting from Illustrator to .dwg

Hi,
I am exporting our Illustrator files into .dwg -- as our client will accept them in .dwg format only.
There is one element that doesn't seem to transfer when exporting. It is a red circle in Illustrator, but when exported, it shows up as a black outlined circle. Any way to fix this in Illustrator so that it appears correctly in .dwg?
We have the same red circle in other projects, and when exporting, they show up in the .dwg perfectly. I tried to copy that red circle from another project and pasted it into my current project. I matched the properties with the eyedropper tool, but still, no red circle in .dwg.
I've included a screen shot of what is happening. This is the .dwg. You can see there is a black outlined circle next to the 'D' in the stairwell on the image. It is supposed to be a red circle. Below, in the empty space in the lower right corner, I copied and pasted another red circle from another project that is appearing fine in the .dwg.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

Exporting from After Effects (field dominance issues?)

Hi all,
I created a FCP DV/NTSC sequence with field dominance set to none (I'm working with still images, this improves the quality a lot). I then export that sequence as a quicktime movie file and import that movie file into After Effects.
The problem is after I'm done working in After Effects, I can't export a quicktime file without it looking really poor quality. When exporting, I preserve all the original FCP sequence settings, except the field dominance settings(doesn't seem to be an option in After Effects for this?).
So pretty much I am trying to get a sharp picture when exporting in After Effects, so I can take it back into FCP. Please assist.

Your workflow is quite limited by the DV NTSC sequence. If your sequence is all stills, you are not necessarily tied to that setting at all. Do you need to output to a VTR via FireWire ultimately? What is your final output?
A better sequence choice might be DV50. You would export a QT movie, current settings. You don't actually export from After Effects. You render by adding your comp to the Render Queue. Good render settings would be DV50 (this would not require rendering in FCP), Animation, or perhaps ProRes 422 HQ if you have access to it. You would choose not to render fields.
If it's all stills, it would be better yet to simply start in After Effects.

[problem]Error "sfntread library error (83::4)" when you start After Effects CS3 (Windows)

Hello,
I am experiencing the above stated problem in the subject. I downloaded the trial version off the website. But when starting the program, i got the error:
Error "sfntread library error (83::4)" when I start After Effects CS3
I tried looking at resolving it through the help posted in the support site.
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402858&sliceId=2
Apparently, the value which was asked to change, it was already set to "0"
Is there not anything else I can do?

Well, I have no more detailed info for you, but if this error (and other, similar ones) pops up, it is usually a good idea to take a look at your shared Adobe components and other Adobe programs. The error itself seems related to the Adobe font system and/or generic vector rasterization engine such as it is also used by Acrobat and various import/ export filters. Therefore a good place to start is to remove any fonts on the system that you don't need. The engine may simply be trying to load them and then fails because they are damged or have some otehr ominous info. If that fails, look into what otehr apps you have on the system. Run the Adobe Updater to make sure you have all the latest versions. If it still does not work think about uninstalling the products. I know it's a pain, but it may get AE to function. As a helper, use the CS3 Clean scripts from the support pages. These will work a little faste and really kill everything (compared to a normal uninstall), Just make sure to deactivate before uninstalling, or you may run into trouble when trying to reactivate.

Exporting from After Effects to Final Cut Pro

Hi
Could anybody tell me the best way to export from After Effects, back in to Final Cut Pro? Do I need to get Automatic Duck for this, if so which one?
Thanks for any help!
Matt

You need to add your composition to the render cue and then export to the same format and codec that you're using in FCP. Automatic Duck is a great tool for getting your FCP or Motion timelines into After Effects but most of the time I simply select a clip in FCP, export it as a reference movie, bring it into AE for processing, then render a file to use as a replacement in FCP.
Search for After Effects Final Cut Workflow and you'll find some more tips including this one. It isn't bad for organization but it misses the point of using the same codec. All my FCP projects are ProRez HQ or ProREZ 444 so that's my choice. Also, if you use the entire shot, which is not a bad idea, then you can use the replace footage option in FCP which is more efficient than the demoed technique of dragging your rendered shot into the timeline and then trimming if needed.
Hope this helps.

Missing data when exporting webi to excel (not 65536 limit problem)

Hi guys
I just meet a problem about webi that it will miss data when exporting webi to excel.
It's not about 65536 limitation, as my webi report do some aggregration and limitation and never beyond that limitation.
Also there are 2 tabs in my reports, if I split the 2 tabs into 2 separate reports and export them separately, then problem disappeared.
Any ideas on this?

Exporting to after effects

I'm trying to make a spinning graphic appear 3D and the
transform effect in flash isn't doing a good enough job so I'm
trying to export it to After Effects to skew the animation angle
there. The problem I'm having is even though swf appears as a
supported format in the import option in After Effects, it says
there's a quick time error and the format isn't supported.
The only way I have been able to export to After Effects is
by converting the animation to a gif. Which causes the file to be
huge (around 2000kb).
Somebody please tell me what I need to do to import an
animation to After Effects in vector form.

Reference or self-contained will make no difference to the quality. If you don't need to carry transparency then QuickTime Movie is your best option.

Vanishing Point filter, export for After Effects (.vpe) is disabled

I am using Photoshop CS6 Extended (ver 13.0). I can apply the Vanishing Point filter to a jpeg still and set/apply the planes but the Export For After Effects (.vpe) command in the drop-down menu within the VP window is greyed out. I understood this filter is a feature of the Extended version. Can anyone help explain why this is disabled? Much appreciate any advice.
OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8
MacBook Pro6,2 15" Intel Core i7

Hi, I'm having the same problem...all I want is to create perspective on this chinese temple I've masked out of a background. There are only two planes. Is the VP effect possible on this? Both planes are blue but the export button is still grayed out.

Problème point de fuite dans l'export pour after effect

Bonjour,
Je cherche à créer un fichier .vpe sur photoshop pour l'utiliser sur after effect mais les fichiers png créés sont totalement déformés et incohérents, comme si photoshop ne prenait pas en compte les plans créés dans l'interface "point de fuite". Existe t-il des preferences générales à modifier sur photoshop pour éviter ce type de déformation? J'ai essayé sur tous les types de photos et de perspectives et n'arrive jamais à obtenir un seul résultat s'approchant de la création de 4 ou 5 png transformés pour rendre compte la perspective. Je ne vois que des png complètement étirés voir dédoublés.
Je possède Photoshop CC 2014 et l'abonnement creative cloud.
Et vous remerciant par avance pour votre aide.
PS. En PJ un exemple de l'un des png créés par l'export vers After effect.

Yopmanfoll please see Configuration error 16 | CC, CS for information on how to resolve the current error.
