I used CS3 Clean script and followed all the instructions for "Bigger problem-solving tools" and "Other Tips & Tricks" on http://generalspecialist.com/2007/02/troubleshooting-after-effects-7.asp.
I'm still having the same problem but only StackHash_d742 is the problem none of the other extensions are showing up, after I attempt to run the program multiple times.
Is there a way to track this file down?

Aspect HD and After Effects CS3:

I get the following error in After Effects CS3:
After Effects error: Failed to build Graph
When I try to render a movie (from AECS3) to Cineform AVI format.
The movie has the following settings:
1920 x 1080 (1.00)
29.fps
Millions of Colors+ (Straight)
No Compression
I am following the tutorial here:
http://supportcenteronline.com/ics/s...asp?deptID=614
Any ideas why I get this error?
Thanks,
Simon

No idea, but the message sounds like it is not able to calculate the data rate for the stream and thus cannot compress it. From what little source footage I have in CF CoDecs, I generally get the impression that it's all rather twitchy in combination with AE, so this may be more a matter of tweaking some settings in the CoDec which the CF people could tell you better than me, obviously.

10.5.2 and After Effects CS3

Installed 10.5.2 and the graphics updater on my dual quad core this morning. Importing Photoshop or PICT files into After Effects CS3 is a major mess. These files now import as Pict sequence files of a duration of 1 frame each. This is putting a huge damper on my workflow. Anyone else have this issue? Any fix ideas?

According to the Adobe Forum AE 8.02 is released and should have fixed these issues:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3c05d846/0
See the bottom of the thread.
I have 8.02 as well as QT 7.4 installed but I'm not a real AE user yet so I can't speak to if the fix corrects everything. As far as FCP goes, I've seen no issues with QT 7.4. It installed before I saw all the threads warning against it but so far I've seen no issues.

Photoshop to After Effects Export, Please Help !!

Hello Guys!! I have created a multi-layered photoshop document
I want to export this to after effects. But when I export it into AE, I don't get any option of editable layer styles/ merge layer styles.(see images to see what i get in folders)
Please help as I want to animate this and had worked a lot in creating this image (I am a beginner)

You might do better asking this question in the After Effects forum ...

OpenGL, nVidia 8600M GT 128mb and After Effects CS3 8.0.2

I've just sold my one year old macbook and bought a new (not so new now, revision C), 2.2 ghz nVidia 128 mb macbook pro.
I did that cause I work with After Effects and thought a bigger screen and dedicated graphics with OpenGL would improve my performance. Sure it did, mainly because I jumped from 1g RAM to 2g in the new computer.
But I'm experiencing a irritating bug that makes AE crash. I've searched in forums, adobe website itself, upgrade to 8.0.1, 8.0.2, made the Nvidia update via Software Update from Apple, and the problems keeps going.
It is mentioned in this document from Adobe: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/view...2244&sliceId=1
"After Effects error: AE_OpenGL: Create texture error. (5065 :: 0)"
In the solutions proposed in the document it says: "Disable OpenGL", "remove OpenGL plugin" and "Optimize the Texture Memory preference", among other things.
Disabling OpenGL wouldn't make my new graphic card useless in this case ? In the document, Adobe says I wouldn't have problems setting the Texture Memory preference because OSX makes it automatically. But at the same time says that the ideal should be 80% from my memory. If I have 128, 80% is 102.4, right ? My config is set to 114. Have OSX failed calculating ?
Thanks, and sorry for the long thread.

There is a lot of conflicting and/or otherwise terrible info being posted as workarounds to getting the ae cs3 801 and 802 update to actually install. I have read everything from reinstalling the entire creative suite, to writing a custom script that disables the app running list in the config.xml. Hahaha what?! Tech support seems to need a week off...
Ok here's how to get it to install:
#1: go here and delete everything in it--> **user>appdata>local>temp>patcher** (this is in Vista...xp users will get there via c:\docs and settings...)
#2: install the update (it will fail
#3: go to **user>appdata>local>temp>patcher** again and you will see 2 new folders named PATCHER[some number here; ex: Patcher470]. Look in these for a folder named INSTALLER. Once you find it, double click on:
PatcherApplication
Voila- ae cs3 will now update to 8.0.2.
It's as easy as that.

Roundtripping between FCP and After Effects CS3

What is the best way to get clips from a FCP timeline into After Effects, and then back again? How do i do this without purchasing any additional plugins?
Also, how do i get an entire sequence into After Effects and then back into Final Cut Studio?
Yes, i admit i'm at a very beginning stage of my expertise, but i will apreciate any help in mastering these techniques.

Yeah...if you want separate clips, you cannot do this without Automatic Duck Pro Export for After Effects. YOu can export a self contained file and import that, then export out of AE and back into FCP.
Or use Motion., as Tony says.

After Effects Cs3 workspace help.

My Cs3 After Effects timeline workspace will only play 1 frame of the clip I put in the timeline. It does this with all of my footage.

We need to know a lot more if we're going to help you.
What version of After Effects? Have you installed the most recent updates (the 8.0.2 update)?
What operating system?
What kind(s) of source footage?
Has this ever worked before?
What other software are you running? Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed?
Tell us about your computer hardware.
Are you rendering with OpenGL?
How are you playing/previewing?

I can't edit my keyframes in after effects? (please help)

Okay so the other day I purchase after effects, everything was working fine until this happened:
http://gyazo.com/1ad100e3404c6e7c06e01407d2b8e7a8
(click on the link screenshot)
This is really bugging me and i've uninstalled and reinstalled with no results.
My computer's specs are in this screenshot:

Just explain to me all the options i can take towards fixing this.

You simply have hidden the A/V column. Right-click on the column headers and reveal it from the list. If it has shrunk together so you can't expand it again, trash the prefs to restore factory defaults.

Does anyone have a link to a Adobe After Effects CS3 Trial Download, if so, please help

Hello, and thx for reading
I'm in need of an Adobe After Effects CS3 Trial, there's no way to download it on the original website, because it has been replaced with CS5, and as much as I would've loved to get that, my computer can only support up to a 32 bit resolution, so I cannot install or use CS4 and CS5, that's when I found out that CS3 comes with a 32 bit resolution
But now I can't find a download for the Adobe After Effects CS3 Trial, please help

Why do you think that After Effects CS4 can't run on a 32-bit operating system? It can. After Effects CS5, on the other had, is a 64-bit application.
There have been many threads in which this question has been asked and answered. Please search the forum before asking a question next time. Here 's one such thread, with all of the information that you need: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2951875

Adobe After Effects CS3 crashes with Codecs such as Motion JPEG and Avid DnxHD

Hey guys, I'm new here
I'm having a problem with After Effects CS3 crashing with .mov files (exported from Adobe Premiere) with codecs such as Motion Jpeg A and Avid's DnxHD. Its driving me crazy.
If I import a Motion Jpeg A file, AE crashes immediately. If I import a DnxHD file that works fine with Premiere, it seems to import ok. However, when I try to play it in AE it comes up as a plain white... thing. If I move the slider across it previews one or two frames before AE crashes. Its driving me crazy.
AE works ok with H.164 and animation files.
I'm reinstalled quicktime and Avids codecs, uninstalled ffdshow, disabled Open GL and multiprocessing, changed between 10bit and 8bit (whatever that is all about) with the dnxhd and I'm really stumped. If I can get Dnxhd working I'm fine with that. I thought I'd mention the Motion Jpeg A codec to see if they're a result of the same problem.
I've also tried Avid's RGB packed Codec with the same results.
I'm running Windows Xp 32 bit with 3gbs of ram, a GeForce 8600 gt with a Intel Pentium Duo Core Processor 2.00 GHZ.
Can anyone help me please?

I'm mistaken, Animation files don't work either!
I tried that with no luck. I even tried a few more Quicktime codecs with the same results.
Only H.164 and some png compressed .mov files seem to work. Very frustrating.
I'm surprised thats the case - I am defintley due for an upgrade. Even though this system seems to work ok, struggling a little bit with HD .mov files but yeah, I've been planning a new system for a while.

That is precisely what my mid-2010 MacBoook Pro 13 was doing before the drive finally died after an Apple Genius rebooted it a dozen or so times. I have since read about the exact same thing happening to others, including a writer for The Atlantic magazine who had never had an issue with a Mac before. Do a back-up ASAP to make sure you don't lose anything and see about replacing the HDD. It is only about $140 for a new drive. The real issue is if you lose your data, too. So, make sure you do that back-up!
