Premiere pro / After Effects CS6 upgrade , render doesn't save ?

Hi, I have just upgraded CS5.5 to CS6.
I have opened and converted a previous project in CS6 which is linked to After Effects via the dynamic link. The media opened ok but even though it was fully rendered and saved from the previous version I had to re- render the entire sequence ..l. It's a 4 minute timeline and took over an hour to render in premiere CS6 .
Now I have come back to the project today , I have opened After Effects and then opened the project in premiere pro, all the media is connected but I have a red render line again and another hour to wait for rendering until I can start working.
Any tips on getting the render to save so I don't have to re- render each time I open the project.
Is this a problem with converting older CS5.5 projects in CS6 ?
My system is :
IMac 3.1 Ghz i5
12gb
OS10.7.4
Thanks
Mark

Ok thanks. What about this card?

  • Premiere Pro/After Effects -learning proper workflow?

    I'm just beginning with video editing in Premiere Pro/After effects. I have used more basic apps such as iMovie and GoPro Studio. I understand the principles of post production for still images as I am a veteran photo retoucher. But as I want to produce videos with more professional productions values, my plan is to learn these Adobe apps from the ground up -and properly.
    2 questions:
    1 - Is it correct to assume that most video/audio editing will be performed in Premiere Pro with After Effects used primarily for special affects & enhancements beyond the scope of Premiere Pro? It seems that many features are "Shared", so I want to direct my training efforts in the most appropriate directions.
    2 - Would Lynda.com be the best resource for training? I see that some of their offerings are not always for the most current versions of some apps.
    There seems to be a jumbled assortment of basic training videos from Adobe. Some are intros from Lynda.com while others are from Adobe and go back to CS6.
    Note to Adobe: I would like to see more complete & integrated ADOBE training materials offered for the various CC apps, which would be updated in reasonable relation to newer versions of the various CC apps. I would be willing to pay for quality training materials created by working industry pros.

    premiere pro to edit. they have added some audio features to premiere, but if you do need more advanced audio editing, you can use adobe audition.  the same can be said of premiere and after effects. they seem to keep slowly adding AE features into premiere pro, but when you need to take it beyond the basics, you then need AE.  i would say AE is for visual effects, composting, advanced motion graphics & titling, and fixing video problems with a clip when you cannot in premiere. AE has some tools like the clone tool (photoshop) and rotoscope that premiere doesn't. while you can do some of the same thru different methods in premiere, its just more advanced in AE.
    2 - Would Lynda.com be the best resource for training?
    most of the information on lynda can be found thru others tutorials on youtube and adobe, and blog type websites etc.  however, you could spend a month digging thru the random and unorganized, repetitive information on the web, or just watch a series geared specifically towards the subject you want to learn.  time vs money. i have watched some lynda videos and the essentials courses for adobe products are very well done imo.

  • Integration of other Adobe products..Premiere Pro, After Effects, Audition, Encore DVD

    Prior to obtaining CS2 I have been working with the other video/audio Adobe tools; Premiere Pro, After Effects, Audition, Encore DVD.
    I fully expected to see integration of these products into the Bridge application after CS2 installation. I was disappointed, there does not appear to be any such integration. I do hope that this is in plan, and that I don't have to spend an "upgrade" fee to use integration that should have been there to begin with.
    Even if there is no further integration, it would be nice to be able to continue using the Bridge as my "file manager" in the event I have to transfer my CS2 activation to another computer; after all I still have 4 licensed Adobe products installed on the machine, even if there not, quote, CS2 applications.

    I can't use Bridge with my video products anymore. I have 3 systems in my personal development environment. I am now past the 30 day period before activation of CS2 is required on my video editing machine. Now I am no longer able to use Adobe Bridge with my other Adobe (video) products.
    Also, now I've noticed that the next level of video products is available, they now have Bridge integrated. As I anticipated in my first append, I cannot continue using Bridge with my Adobe video products unless I spend more money for an upgrade. If the intention is to have Bridge become an integral tool in the creative process, this policy is short sighted. It can't be that difficult to bring out an update for the CS2 level of bridge that would enable it to work with users that have AE 6.5 or PPro 1.5 installed.

    I have a Adobde CC account but when i open the app to download the different software, i have illustrator, indesign, photoshop, bridge to install but premiere pro, after effects, lightroom, etc. to "test"...???
    Before (2-3 monate before) i had no problem to access to lightroom & after effetcs...help me please. Thx

    That's okay , besides I got nothing to do lol hehehe atleast I can make myself useful for someone else hehe
    1)Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc and look for file named hosts inside etc folder.
    2)Copy the hosts file to Desktop and open the same with notepad.
    Check with the hosts file entries , let me know if there are any Adobe entries like 127.0.01 xxx.,adobe.com .activate.adobe.com....etc?
    If there are no Adobe entries in Hosts file .
    If you wish , you may uinstall and reinstall the app .
    You may try below steps :
    Open Control Panel and Navigate to Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features .
    Under Program and Features list, locate Adobe Creative Cloud and uninstall it.
    End all Adobe related Tasks from Task Manager.
    Open C:drive and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe.
    Open Adobe folder and delete folders named Adobe Application Manager and OOBE.
    Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe.
    Open Adobe folder and if present delete Adobe Creative Cloud folder.
    Press Windows button (located between Ctrl and Alt buttons) along with R button together at a time , you will get a run command window.
    Type in below command and hit 'Enter' key.
    appdata
    Then navigate to Local>Adobe.

  • New Machine purchase advice to run Premiere Pro & After Effect 5.5

    I am about to purchase a new pc with the following specs: Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit), Intel® Core™i7-930 processor(8MB L2 Cache, 2.80GHz), 12GB Tri Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1333MHz - 6 DIMMs, ATI Radeon HD5970 2GB GDDR5 video card. Are these good features? I cannot find any compatability or certification for any ATI video cards on the Adobe site. Is the video card, ram and cpu good to get the acceleration featured of CS5.5 (specifically Premiere Pro & After Effect)?

    To answer your question:
    That build could be better equipped.
    First off, Windows 7 Home Premium maxes out at 16GB of RAM. This means that if you want to put in 24GB total anytime in the near future, Windows 7 Home Premium will make only the first 16GB available for programs. You will need Windows 7 Pro or Ultimate in order to use more than 16GB of RAM.
    Second, Premiere Pro CS5.5 needs more than 12GB to run at its best. However, since that build fills up all six DIMM slots to attain 12GB, you would have to discard some of the DIMMs in order to add more RAM at all. As a result, if you must have only 12GB, I'd recommend three 4GB DIMMs instead of six 2GB DIMMs. These days, 4GB DIMMs sell for about $40 to $50 USD each ($120 to $150 for 12GB, or $240 to $300 for 24GB) whereas a year ago they sold for $200 to $300 USD apiece ($600 to $900 for 12GB; or well over $1,000 for 24GB).
    Third, Adobe does not currently support the use of any ATi or AMD GPU in its MPE GPU acceleration feature. This means that any ATi or AMD GPU, including the top-of-the-line models, will force MPE to run in software-only mode. And software-only mode is often 10 times or more slower than MPE GPU mode. At present the MPE GPU mode supports only Nvidia GPU-equipped cards with 896MB or more RAM and CUDA support.
    Fourth, that HD 5970 is a dual-GPU card. Unfortunately, Adobe does not support the use of more than one GPU at all, which means that the HD 5970 goes half-unused in any flavor of CS5.x - and then, it goes to software-only mode, to boot since it's not an Nvidia GPU. As a result, the HD 5970 performs no better than an HD 5850 in CS5.x, especially since the HD 5970 actually consists of two HD 5850's on a single card. In other words, dual-GPU cards are a total waste of money, as far as Premiere Pro and After Effects are concerned.
    Finally, if that system has only one hard drive, I'd strongly recommend adding two or more additional hard drives. This is because Adobe requires a minimum of two hard drives (one for the OS and programs, the second for everything else) just to run without severe slowdowns in performance. The more (hard drives), the better.

  • After Effects CS6 upgrade error in mac mavericks

    Say hello to everyone.
    Now i'm very tired and irritated about upgrading after effects cs6. Because my mac version is mac os x 10.9.5, mavericks so have to upgrade After Effects cs6.
    BUT, only upgrade version 11.04 installed, and the others (11.01/ 11.02/ 11.03) still not installed and have an error message : the error code is U44M2P7.
    What is this code mean and what should i do next?

    If you have 11.0.4 installed, you have everything in 11.0.1, 11.0.2., and 11.0.3
    There is no reason to install any update other than 11.0.4

  • Premiere Pro/After Effects CC on Mac OSX crashes when moving media

    I have Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC, in both programs whenever I attempt to move any media (any format) to the timeline from the media browser window Premiere (and After Effects) crashes immediately.
    I'm using a MacBook Pro w/ retina, running latest OS, and I have the Microsoft Office suite of apps installed.
    Customer service had a go fixing it but to no avail, apparently it has something to do with fonts if that helps anyone, i've reverted all the fonts on my Mac back to the default but still nothing. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Matt,
    Try the following:
    Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
    Update any GPU drivers
    Trash preferences
    Ensure Adobe folder preferences are set to read/write in all 3 locations.
    Delete media cache
    Remove plug-ins
    If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
    Repair permissions
    In Sequence Settings > Video Previews, change the codec to one that matches your footage
    Disconnect any third party hardware
    If you have a CUDA GPU, ensure that the Mercury Playback Engine is set to CUDA, not OpenCL
    Disable App Nap
    Reboot
    Report back if anything here worked for you.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Weird distortion in Premiere and After effects CS6 - need urgent help!

    Hello,
    I've got a serious problem!!! While I was editing a sportsevent I noticed that a lot of shots have some weird distortion. I allready had this problem with other projects. At first I thought it was a problem with my camera (sony EX3).
    But today I started digging more into it.
    I recorded some test footage and didn't import it into Premiere. Instead I tryed to play it straight from the camera with VLC media player. To my suprise the shot was perfect. Then I opend it with premiere and after effects.
    I didn't change anything on the shot and the distortion came back! Then I exported it using media encoder.
    I uploaded two clips: 1 rendered with Premiere, and 1 just straight out of the camera.
    Even when rendered the distortion is in the shot!
    Here is the shot straight out of the camera: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TNfsltos_s
    And here is the shot rendered in Premiere: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbctDm2VhWM
    I would be very happy if someone can help me out with this! I can't deliver a project to a client with this distortion!

    Ask in the Premiere forum and provide at least some system info. Looks like decoding issues to me, which would boil down to hardware acceleration issues...

  • Can I edit between Premiere Pro & After Effects without having to Render??

    Im trying to edit these videos my method was look through the long videos and select clips I want and export them so I could work on AE..
    The thing is that the videos loose a lot of quality when I render them on export.
    Yes I know I could use After Effects and cut the clips in there but the problem is that it doesnt really cut the clip it just shadows out the rest of the video.
    Light Blue: Section I want Shadow Blue: Rest of video
    This is bothering me when I try to use time remapping..
    or is there any way to actually chop it off??? so that there wont be no shadow..
    or is there any way to work between them withouth having to render..

    The thing is that the videos loose a lot of quality when I render them on export.
    Then you are using wrong settings, plain and simple.
    This is bothering me when I try to use time remapping..
    How so? Nothing stops you from adding additional keyframes at the trim marks, pre-compose the layer or whatever.

  • Premiere (and After Effects) CS6 won't open anymore!

         Hi everyone,
    Recently, I've been working on a project which required a dynamic link between After Effects and Premiere CS6 on my MacBook Pro, which runs OSX Mountain Lion. Everything worked great until yesterday, when I got an error message that said something along the lines of "Adobe Premiere has encountered an error. We will try to save your project and restart Premiere again".
         I re-opened Premiere, and although the same thing happened again a few times, I was finally able to get back to my project. Today, however, the same message appeared when I opened it again. I went through the same routine again, opening it and then exiting out, but this time, it didn't work.
         Not only is Premiere not opening, it is no longer even showing the error message. It simply goes to the loading screen and the the infamous "Spinning Beach Ball of Death" appears. I've force quit multiple times and re-started my computer with every application closed. I've also relaunched Finder (I honestly don't think that would help, but I tried anyways) - still, the loading sign freezes and the SBBOD appears again.
         Instead of sitting there trying to fix it and wasting my time, I tried opening After Effects to at least work on the linked compositions that were in my Premiere project. I then get this message before After Effects force quits automatically:
    "Last log message was: <140735255806336> <GPUManager> <2> Sniffer Result Code: 3
    Generating crash log, which may take a few minutes."
    So, apparently this has something to do with my GPU or CPU? I'm not really that educated when it comes to GPUs, so I'm not sure what to do now. I have a CUDA Driver Version 5.5.47 on my computer (I'm not entirely sure how it got there in the first place...), and System Preferences has been notifying me that it needs to be updated. I heard somewhere, on a different forum, that this may have something to do with it, so I downloaded what I thought was a newer version of the driver, although this just turned out to be the same version (5.5.47) that I already have (which seems to be the newest one).
    So, what do you think I should do? Is there something very specific that should be done? Does it have something to do with this CUDA thing? Is the best option to just uninstall and then reinstall?
    If you have any ideas, let me know!
    Thank you!

    Thank you so much, Mr. Curtis! I'm not sure exactly how that worked, but it allowed me to get back on both AE and Premiere Pro. 10 points to you!
    Also, for the  other people that may have similar problems and are viewing this forum, definitely try this out. Listen to Jim's advice, don't use the most recent version (which is currectly 5.5.47) - instead try a slightly older one. The one I had installed was version 5.5.24.
    Once again, thank you! You saved my project!

  • Having Trouble Stabilizing Shots in Premiere Pro/After Effects

    Hi everyone,
    I'm having some trouble getting the results I want with the stabilizing tools in Premiere Pro and After Effects.  I'm having the same problem with multiple shots, but to keep things simple I'll just explain one:
    I have a clip, shot handheld, of a dried-up river bed.  For handheld, it's pretty steady, but I'd like to stabilize it so it looks like it was shot on a tripod.  When I use warp stabilizer in Premiere Pro (and After Effects), it barely crops anything, and stabilization is barely noticeable. 
    I feel like I've used the tool in the past (maybe a previous version) and it used to crop in clips quite a bit, but it completely steadied them.  I don't know what I'm doing wrong.  Is there another tool?
    I also tried the motion tracker but got similar results.  I even put the clips in Avid and some third party plugin trials, with poor results.  All the tutorials I watch make warp stabilizer and other stabilizer tools look so easy and effective.  I feel like an idiot but I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!
    Notes:
    -Both the clip settings and sequence settings match.
    -Using Adobe CS6.

    Yes. I tried "No Motion" and still poor results.
    I would say most of them are relatively flat.  I shot a lot of scenery with a wide angle lens.
    However some do have a close foreground (with subject in focus) and far background (out of focus).

  • Sony NEX-5N AVCHD 2.0 1080p50 and Premiere Pro/After Effects CS5.5

    Hi all,
    I have a new Sony NEX-5N and have shot some test 1080p50 video using it.
    On my quest for some new editing/production software to close the loop I have just downloaded and installed a Trial Version of CS5.5 Production Premium.
    I am able to load my video files into Premiere Pro.
    However, when I attempt to open the Video File in After Effects, I recieve the following Error message:
       After Effects error: '00023.MTS' cannot be imported - this '.mts' file is damaged or unsupported.
    I have tried renaming the extension to .MPG, .M4V, .M2TS all with exactly the same result.
    Perhaps this is a limitation of the Trial Version or perhaps a limitation of After Effects CS5.5.  Is anyone able to advise?
    As extra information I include below the TEXT output from MediaInfo for the file I am able to load into Premiere Pro CS5.5 but not After Effects.
    Thanks.

    Hi and thanks, this is exactly what I am looking for :-)

    Other question: Is it just this one file that fails to import or is it all files from that camera?
    All of the clips I have recorded fail to import to AE but work in PPro

    Can you post a sample file that exhibits the problem so that I could try the clip on my machine?
    I just recorded 4 seconds of a clock pendulum swinging, surprisingly the file was 20Mb!?!?  Anyway, I have made the file available for download at the following location:
    http://andrew.net.au/~rowan/avchd/00032.MTS
    You can browse the directory at http://andrew.net.au/~rowan/avchd/ if you need to "right-click" and save as.
    I am hoping it is a limitation of the trial as I have noticed a few other "gotchas" with the trial version.
    Thanks for the advice about video format, I have noticed that my computer (Core 2 Duo) is very slow to process the H.264 stream, PremierePro cannot play the 30sec stream in realtime (starts to stutter around 23sec) and After Effects starts its stutter almost immediately (both just playing the stream with no effects) - that said WindowsMediaPlayer has no problem playing the same stream at full speed.  I am however reluctant to do any transcoding except to a lossless format as it seems counter intuitive - but this will be the subject of another post, as I don't want to clutter this one.
    Thanks again.

  • Premiere Pro & After Effects close after a few seconds after the startup?

    Hi,
    I bought Creative Cloud yesterday and everything installed just fine. I haven't tried all Apps yet, but so far Premiere Pro and After Effects close after a few seconds after the startup. There is no dialogue or error window of any kind, the programs just shut down automatically.
    The weird thing is that I had the trial before, but also uninstalled it, but then the apps worked just fine.
    I searched the forum but couldn't find anyone with the exact same issue. I hope someone can help me out.
    My notebook specs:
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    Intel Core i7-3610QM
    CPU 2.30 GHz
    RAM 6 GB
    Graphics card: nVidia Geforce GT 630M - 2 GB

    >assigning my nVidia card as the main driver for Premiere Pro (instead of the standard card)
    You MAY need to turn off the onboard graphics "chip" in BIOS
