Raw Preview error on After Effects CC

Hi there ... i am having some trouble whith this error and o don't know how to fix it.
I have download the after effcts CC via Creative Cload ... and it was working fine until a few weeks ago.
But now every time i want to make a RAW PREVIEW on a project composition ... it shows me the following error "After Effects error: Raw Previem needs 2 or more frames to playback".
This is the frist time i had this problem ... i have seached the net, for solutions and the only thing that worked th frist time was to Purge the All Memory and Disc Cache, but now that does not work
Can someone please tell me the solution please ??

11- Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed?
R: Do you consider Video Coplilot 3D element and Red Giant Trapcodes effects and MPC Codec pack in this category ... then yes i have.
These last questions i don't understand what you meant by them so i left them
Are you using OpenGL features in After Effects?
Does the problem only happen with your final output, RAM preview, or both?
Are you using Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing?
Are you using the ray-traced 3D renderer?
If the problem is with output, give your exact output settings (both render setting and output module settings). Screenshots help.
What is the exact sequence of steps that you are taking?
With Regards ASilva
PS: Tomorrow will see if it gives me the error again

Help me! cant preview sound in after effects CS4 ;(

Hey there , I am currently working on a project and i have beeen having some probelms in after effects cs4 running on 32 bit Windows 7.
Normally to preview sound when im working on a project i could press the .del key on the numerous pad on my keyboard but now when i press it i get a error saying "After effects error: could not allocate sound memory."
Any idears on what to do :S
-Dan

You can change the amount of audio that is rendered for previews, which can be useful if you're running into memory problems.
The amount of audio that is rendered for previews is specified by the Duration setting in the Previews preferences.

Updated document about QuickTime errors with After Effects (re: H.264 and hyperthreading)

I just updated "troubleshooting QuickTime errors with After Effects CS5, CS5.5, and CS6" with information about hyperthreading and Apple's H.264 encoder.
The gist is that Apple's H.264 exporter component for QuickTime fails when the computer has a large number of CPUs.

No, this applies to any QuickTime H.264 export. You can export H.264 in a QuickTime .mov wrapper out of AME, too, and it will have this problem.
The various H.264 encoding presets (for YouTube, Blu-ray, Vimeo, iPad, etc.) don't use the H.264 QuickTime component, so this isn't relevant to them.
This problem is just relevant to choosing Apple's H.264 as the video codec when choosing QuickTime as a format. This applies to all software that uses QuickTime, by the way, not just Adobe software.

Ayuda con Error en After Effects CS6

Alguien porfavor que me pueda ayudar,
Me salen los siguientes mensajes de error en After Effects CS6 al trabajar con el plugin Newton:

qué puedo hacer, cómo lo soluciono, ayuda porfavor
Gracias!!

Bueno, prueba el consejo, casi siempre recomendable actualizar, las aplicaciones y los controladores gráficos que en aplicaciones de video suelen ser la clave.
No aportaste ningun detalle de tu instalación, sistema,... por lo que más dificilmente se te puede ayudar.
El error que de forma parcial comunicabas, te ofrecía dos soluciones:
1. Consultar una página web.
2. Consultar con el soporte técnico de Adobe. Esto, para problemas aleatorios es lo más recomendable.

Error in After Effects RAM Preview after updating to Yosemite

There is an issue of RAM preview not showing video for the first several frames (a second or so) on the first run in After Effects.
No problem under Maverick.
Which means it has to do with the yosemite System-update.
This bug should really be fixed with some priority!
Apparently, Adobe cannot fix it (or don't want to).
So it's Apple who has to do something!!!

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

RAM Preview Problems in After Effects CC

AE CS 6 RAM Previews work, but two problems to report with AE CC on the same computer. Possibly two faces of the same problem.
1. Having QuickTime Player open while doing a RAM preview makes the RAM preview stutter. I quit the player, and now the RAM preview plays back without dropping a frame, though Info palate shows "fps: 24 (realtime)", but the RAM preview playback is slow: ie, a tenor sounds like a baritone.
2. A RAM preview that looked and sounded fine last night, is now playing back slowly (tenor sounds like a baritone), though Info Palate shows "fps: 24 (realtime)". I have no other applications open. The only thing that changed is that I quit AE, slept the computer, slept a little myself, and then launched AE. Trashing the cache files (manually), rebooting, relaunching and re-RAM-previewing creates a functional RAM preview, so I assume there is some problem with the cached files or the retrieval of them.
Is anyone else getting either of these? If so, what is your system configuration?
Also, I posted on another thread that Quicktime import/render works with AE CS6 on this computer, but AE CC can not import, play, or render QT reliably (without throwing error messages). Perhaps all of this is part of the same problem.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Benjamin
CS 6 CC | Mac OS 10.8.4 | MacPro5,1 | 96 GB Ram | PROJECT & MEDIA drive: Mercury Accelsior > 500 MB/s read/write | CACHE drive: Mercury Accelsior > 500 MB/s read/write | Nvidia Quadro 4000 Mac | CUDA Driver: latest update | Wacom Intuos 5

96 GB RAM is accessible in 10.8.4 on my machine according to OWC. I'm working on a stereoscopic 4K project with large files and hundreds of layers. I regurlarly render with AE MP while working with huge files in PS, and am glad to see the % of RAM AE uses displayed in my render cue between 3 and 60%.
I have 12 processors (24 with hyperthreading)
I have reserved 10 for other applications leaving 14 for After Effects
4 GB per x 14 = 56 GB for AE. leaving 40 GB for everything else
I've played with what and how much I have allocated being sure to keep the CPU counts even, but this does not fix the RAM preview problems described above. Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Benjamin

Slow preview playback in After Effects

Hi Folks
I just recently set up CS6 on a new z820 workstation and for some reason my after effects timeline does not playback in realtime when previewing. Everything is green on the timeline, yet when it plays it is about half speed. I have no doubt my system has the specs to play rendered media in real time (2x8core, Quadro 4000, 64GB Ram, Sonnet hard drive array) so obviously I have something set up wrong. I'm running a Kona 3 with the latest drivers and I suspect this is the culprit. I've had other issues related to the Kona, such as losing display to my external monitors sporadically. It will be fine for a while then suddenly the output signal turns either solid green or some form of garbled junk. Very strange, although the Kona output seems perfectly fine when I'm in Premiere.
Anyhow, any help zeroing in on the problem would be greatly appreaciated.
Best,
EE

Thanks Tom
However, I do think I have playback set to computer monitor (not in front of system right now). Definitely seems like there's something AE doesn't like about my card (it is an older version of the Kona 3). I have a support ticket in with AJA so hopefully that will turn up something.
As far as my Quadro 4000 goes, I was kind of forced into using it on account of other software on my system. If it was up to me, I would have put in a GTX680 or 690. I have a GTX680 at home and it is rock solid in AE and Premiere. Timelines that are heavily dependant on GPU accelerated FX render about twice as fast on my 6-core/GTX680 vs my z820/Quadro 4000 work system. I'm hoping to upgrade to the Quadro 5000K when it comes out, possibly with the Tesla sidekick. In the meantime, I have to sort out this Kona thing

I can't get text effects to preview in cs6 After Effects. It was working a week ago.

I can't get text effects to preview in After Effects CS6 browser. It was working a week ago.

I uninstalled and reinstalled a current Quicktime. Couldn't find hardware accelerated previews in Bridge setting. Is it under "preferences"? Couldn't find it in preferences. Still not previewing.

Help Error (193) After Effects CS5

Hi dear friendsI just installed After effects cs5 and sends me this error and I opened, I was looking for a long time and can not find the solution, but it says the message I give here more info on my pc, and hopefully I can help solve this I do not understand.

I am not surprised by that. You need more memory on your computer! You went from a computer with only 3 GB RAM to one with just 2 GB RAM.
Personally, I would not try to run AE on a computer with anything less than 8 GB RAM, and I would not try to use multiprocessing with it. I would not try to use multiprocessing unless I had 16 GB RAM.
After Effects uses a lot of memory. You are in desperate need of more memory. Until you get more, you will be unsuccessful when you use it.

Error Opening After Effects CS3 - cannot load AERes1.dll

Hello,
When I try to open After effects I get this Error "cannot load AERes1.DLL"
I tried to reinstall after effects and it didnt dfix the problem.
I uninstalled the entire Master collection CS3 and reinstalled and the problem didnt solve.
I could open After Effects in the past.
Any suggestions?

OK so this is how I solved the problem if anyone encounter it ever again...
Uninstalling and reinstalling the CS3 won't help.
The problem happens probably because of quicktime installed prior to the CS3 updates. I didnt try to remove quicktime. I formatted my PC and luckly I had an image of my c: drive from the time I installed the cs3 and prior to the time I installed Quicktime. So I made all Adobe Cs3 updates first and only than installed Quicktime.
Now After Effects works.
If anyone finds a way to solve this without formatting c: drive, let me know.

Why is RAM preview crashing my After Effects CC 2014?

Using Windows 7 x64
After Effects CC 2014
I'm getting numerous crashes when using the RAM Preview.
Until my current project started getting more complicated all was good - no crashes. As I've added more assets to it, it's become very unstable.
When I click the RAM Preview button it'll either crash immediately, or succeed. If it actually starts, it's fine. But more often than not it just crashes the whole program immediately.
How do I solve this?
Is there a checklist I can use to check for possible issues?

Right, right. Vague info I know, but I was hoping for a checklist of common culprits I could eliminate one by one. Very new to the world of video.
I'm running:
Windows 7 x64
Intel i7-3770K CPU @ 3.5GHz
32GB RAM
GeForce GTX 780
Doing a 720p project, but using mainly 1080p footage.
Video files used are .MP4 and .MTS format.
Using various effects. Mostly simple stuff.
Plenty of sound effects and music as well. All .WAV format. No MP3's (I heard AE hates MP3 format).
I don't get any crash info. The entire program freezes until I kill it manually.

JPG fine in Photoshop but error in After Effects: "The file format module could not parse the file (45::36)"

I found a lot of discussion on this error in Photoshop but I'm getting it in After Effects. I have a sequence of JPG images created by photoshop (output is RGB in sRGB color space) and it appears one of them is causing problems in AE. There are several hundred images in the sequence, all created from PS, and only this one is causing problems. I've re-created it several times in PS and the error persists. I've also re-created several others and they're still fine.
I've seen other comments that the issue is with incorrect file formats and CMYK color space. I've confirmed that neither of those is my problem - the file is JPG straight out of PS in RGB. Also, there are several hundred others that are just fine using the same process and "save as" properties...
Any help?
Thanks,

Have you stripped its metadata in Bridge? Could well be that it contains botched info from the camera. PS carries this through until the bitter end. Alternatively save it with Save for Web choosing to remove metadata.

Camera raw in Premiere or After Effects. .... ??

I would need to know if there is a plug in for the use camera raw (Photoshop) in Premiere or After Effects. .... The camera raw is great for the video... would be wonderful to have him as filter in Pr or AE. It will be in anticipation?

So far ... not expecting the Photoshop (or Lightroom) iteration of Camera Raw. The comments from staffers are that's a high-use UI for stills shots ... running it for say 30 shots per second times 20 minutes ... you'd need a computer farm to run it in real time. Some of the ... bits & pieces? ... of the interface, might be workable.
I've had a nearly 40 year career as a professional portrait photographer, along with the missus. We've made our living at it, with the odd gazillion hours in Lightroom over the last decade (and some in Photoshop, more for her than me) as we did in the darkroom/color-lab we also had for 20 years before that. My "editing suite" is in what was our b/w darkroom, and second-enlarger station for color printing. The darkroom gear ... sink, enlarger & table ... are still in here. So I've a lot of experience in stills, and yes the Lr/Photoshop ACR things.
When I first came to video a couple years back, I wanted Lr or at LEAST ACR for coloring work. Didn't find the tools in PrPro "intuitive" so tried AfterEffects ... which was somewhat better, the Colorista plugin. However, I did read the Hullfish & Fowler book on color video correction & tools, learned how the pro video tools are set up the way they are & how to work them ... in quite a few different programs. Read the vanHurkman book on SpeedGrade ... and started working with that. It has become my all-time fav program to just sit and play/work in, way too entrancing for me. I'd been asking for at LEAST some curves tools ... and by the time "we" got them in Sg, well ... I'm so used to and preferring the "regular" colorist tools I've only played with the curves a couple times. I've got so many other subtle to hammer options available that I've learned to use that curves seems ... well ... a bit rough.
And in the CC world, the workflow from PrPro to Sg takes a few seconds, and back to PrPro the same. I've not been in Ae for quite a spell except for such things as de-noising or a couple animated title things I did I've already forgotten how to do. PrPro & the Direct Link to/from Sg.
