Render file size bigger After Effects CC 2014

Hello, this seems like a silly question, but ever since the 'After Effects CC 2014' update my rendered files seem to be enormous in comparison to the files I rendered before the update!
I don't see why the update would have adjusted my render preferences, but it must have done as a 2min clip that rendered at 140mb before is now 10GB!!!
My knowledge of codecs and compression is limited but I had a good preset before the update which now seems to have changed (although I have always been rendering h.264/full quality/no audio so I don't understand how the file size can change so drastically).
Has anyone else experienced anything similar?
If not could you please advise me on how to render these files to a suitable size. Like I said they need to be h.264, 1920 x 1080 with no audio.
Thanks.

After Effects CC 2014 no longer supports the output of many delivery codecs, such as Mpeg4 and H264, through the Render Queue.
You can output far more formats, and in greater quality, using Adobe Media Encoder. You can send AE renders directly to AME from After Effects. You can import AE projects directly into AME. And you can also render high quality and/or lossless formats from the AE Render Queue and then re-encode them from AME.

How can I load external file .txt in After Effects CC 2014.0 Release / Mavericks OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)?

ello everybody.
Someone can help me to load a external file .txt in After Effects CC 2014.0 Release / Mavericks OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)?
I tried the code bellow, but doesn't work.
try{
myPath = "~/Desktop/source.txt";
$.evalFile(myPath);
eval(thisComp.name)[0];
}catch(err){
"MISSING";
The source.txt file have the texts bellow:
var comp1 = ["Title”, “Subtitle”, “Description”];
var comp2 = ["Text 0", "Text 1", "Text 2"];
var comp3 = ["Text 0", "Text 1", "Text 2"];
Thanks.

This is the text file (with the modified first line) that I used:
var comp1 = ["Title", "Subtitle", "Description"];
var comp2 = ["Text 0", "Text 1", "Text 2"];
var comp3 = ["Text 0", "Text 1", "Text 2"];

After Effects CC 2014 - Rendering / saving project file to CS6

Hello all,
I'm writing here to try to understand the st**** decision to exclude mp4 and mpeg from the render possibilities from After Effects CC 2014. I would gladly go back to CS6 but as of now I have more than 40 hours of edited video project in CC 2014, which of course cannot save project files to CS6, which is another brilliant move by somebody in Adobe that has the title position of "the dude for giving ideas to p*** people off". Now the problem is this, if I choose to export just a single clip from my composition of course I cannot export it to a container and codec of my choosing since it cannot be exported to Media Encoder, and has to be done in After Effects or I have to make a composition for each and every file, in order to export it to to the Media Encoder.
Now I ask you good people any way to move my projects back to CS6, remove this unusable piece of software and be over with it, I simply don't have the time to be toying around with Adobe's new found glory for Apple and exporting stuff to QuickTime, taking 3 times longer than mpeg. Tried with OpenSeasame and by just exporting an XML file but none work so if there is any other way please let me know.
Good thing I only got 1 month and didn't pay for the whole year...
Cheers,
shorto

Did you use any of the new features in either AE CC (the original one) or CC 2014? If yes, you're kinda stuck.
If no, you'd have to engage in a two-step process: backsave the AE CC 2014 project to AE CC, then open the project in AE CC and backsave to CS6.

Workaround for slow performance and poor resolution with RED R3D files in After Effects CC 2014 (13.0)

http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2014/06/red-r3d-problems-after-effects-cc-2014-13-0.ht ml
The After Effects team are investigating a bug in After Effects CC 2104 (13.0) where RED (.R3D) files are very slow and the image resolution is poor, about 1/8 sampling.
The following workaround has been reported to solve the problems in some cases:
Save the project.
Choose Edit > Purge > All Memory & Disk Cache.
Please post in this thread about whether or not this workaround helped you.

Intentionally cross-linking threads: this issue was first reported in this thread, which has an ongoing discussion:
AE 2014CC RED R3D files support broken - footages looks bad, everything slow.
The thread you are in now is the comment thread for the blog post. Please post in whichever thread makes more sense for you. I am monitoring both.

After Effects CC 2014 render time problem

Hello Guys
I'm trying to render a comp in After Effects and it's taking to long to render.
I recently upgraded to AE CC 2014 and now i'm using OSX Mavericks.
In the previous hardware and software setup (After Effects CS6), the same comp was taking about 2 hours to render.
Now the render gradually start's slowing down and it doesn't finish...
This is my current machine specs:
Mac Pro 3.5 Ghz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5
16 Gb Ram
Are you experince the same problem?
Best Regards
André Almeida

I'm on CC2014.0.2
I'm trying to render a 1920x1080 comp, 25 fps and with the duration of 3380 frames to a quicktime movie with H.264 codec.
This are my settings:

How to get plugin file for After Effects CC 2014 (just bought creative cloud)

I just bought Creative Cloud, installed it, and then went to the Adobe site to install After Effects, since I couldn't find a way to do this on the CC menu. I have Mac OSx. I downloaded the After Effects CC 2014 app and it installed it onto my desktop. So when I go to applications>adobe there is no After Effects file and no plugins. And in the menu within After Effects there is no listing of the Effects & presets. I tried searching various things like "curves" and nothing showed up except for "contents"......any idea on how to solve this?

If you are telling us that you could not find After Effects in the Creative Cloud app then your system does not meet the minimum system requirements. If you somehow found a disk image and managed to run it and it gave you the option to choose Desktop when installing then you probably don't have a light copy of CC 2014, because it should only be installed using the CC app. Mac OSx tells us nothing. You could be on Lion, or Leopard, or Mountain Lion or even something else.
Tell us more about your system, show us what you get when and if you get AE to launch (sounds like you're looking inside the disk image for an app and it's not there), and give us the exact steps or error messages that you are seeing when you try and launch AE. BTW, plug-ins are only accessible from inside the timeline or the comp window when the App is running.

After Effects CC 2014 crashing on startup

I downloaded the trial version of After Effects. By downloading it, it activated a 30-day trial. However, every time I try to start up the program, it gives me an error and crashes. I read on the forums issues about fonts and OpenGL, but it doesn't even give me detailed information on the crash. Anybody able to give me a bit of an assist on this? I use Adobe Design and Web Premium CS6 on my PC. I primarily use Sony Vegas for my video work, however I was sent a file on AE and rather than get in contact with the client to have them resend it in .veg, I figured I could download the trial and open it there. No such luck. I've finished the work, but now this AE issue is just bugging me. I am interested in trying it, but if I can't get into the trial, it really curbs my interest in the program.
What exact version of After Effects? Include the minor version number---e.g., After Effects CC (12.2.1) or After Effects CS6 (11.0.4). Do not just say "After Effects with the latest updates" or "After Effects CC"; give the specific version number.
     After Effects CC 2014.2 (13.2)    (Creative Cloud says it is up to date, so I'm assuming it is 13.2)
Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
     Yes. Creative Cloud says After Effects is up to date.
What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
     Windows 7 Ultimate
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
     After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <5640> <GPUManager> <2> Sniffer Result Code: 3
     After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. For After Effects Help and Support, go to http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_ae_support. If you still can't resolve      the issue, please contact Adobe Technical Support (2).

     [[Note that the last logged message number changes every time i try to open the program. <5696> <3564> <10968> <10884> and so on]]
What were you doing when the problem occurred? What is the exact sequence of steps that you are taking?
     Happens whenever I open After Effects via Shortcut, Start Menu, Program Files, or through Creative Cloud
Has this ever worked before? If this worked before by doesn't work now, what has changed on your computer in the intervening time?
     Has never worked in the four days I have had the trial active

Do you have Service Pack 1 for Windows 7? It's listed in the system requirements for CC 2014. If you don't have SP1, AE won't run.
That GPU sniffer error message is usually what happens. This should be a simple fix! Of course, you should always take the normal precautions when updating an OS, but still...

After Effects CC 2014 - removal of H.264, MPEG-2, WMV, FLV, F4V, and SWF exporters - WHY !?

While reading the features of AfterEffects CC2014, I noticed the following:
"removal of H.264, MPEG-2, WMV, FLV, F4V, and SWF exporters from After Effects"
THAT IS IS REDICULOUS!!
NO FLV !?!?
WHAT DO YOU EXPECT USERS TO IMPORT INTO FLASH ??
IF no FLV export is available under After Effects CC 2014, there is NO WAY to EMBED an flv into flash !! (Linking is NOT always what is wanted!!)
NO H264 !?!?!
HAVE YOU GONE CRAZY ?!!?!?
YOU BREAK WORKFLOWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT IS REDICULOUS!!!
Any chance of restoring such features so that it makes updating to it worthwhile ?

To date I've primarily been a Photoshop user and have dealt with years of mystifying UX and workflow changes, features that are useless to me added, and critical ones taken away (I'm looking at you Bridge, you worthless piece of garbage). Then, to add insult to injury, Adobe forum mods telling me I'm doing it wrong and should be jumping through more hoops to achieve the same results. Now, with AE becoming a bigger part of my work, I am sad to find, that the same culture of disconnected arrogance and myopia prevails on the AE dev team.
"Oh um user, you really want to be going through AME, because um technically speaking there have been many problems with the H.264 and MPEG-2 exporters in After Effects"
Oh really? Tell me more about my job. Tell me about my experiences exporting these formats directly from AE. Tell me how my client views my content, is it on a Mac, or a PC? Maybe it's on his phone, or her iPad. What kind of phone is it though? Tell me at what point in my process it's ideal to render. Tell me about other tasks I'm performing. Tell me about the resolution and the bit-rate my files should play at. Tell me the final application I will be using the footage. Probably broadcast right? Or is it web? Or is it PowerPoint? Wait, what if there is no final output? What if it's just pre-vis for some other application?
Tell me how to win over my clients; what's the correct method of presentation to engage them most impactfully? Tell me about how much time I have to render massive video files. Is it more time efficient due to the nature of my composite to render once because my file is super shallow and will render quickly or is it more efficient to render twice because my file is extremely complex with hundreds of layers?
That the deprecated formats were hidden away in the preferences menu is dumb and annoying. That this same preference would then be removed is despicable and petty and is further confirmation that Adobe has contempt for me as a user.

After Effects CC 2014 Trial Closing Immediately After Launch

Basically, I downloaded the trial for both after effects cc (2014) and media encoder cc (2014) but when the installation is finished, I open after effects cc 2014 and literally as soon as it loads up, it closes, and is not a running process anymore in the task manager...
Someone please help!!

GUYS I HAVE FOUND A FIX..... firstly, open the after effects cc render engine found at:
C:\Users\"user"\Desktop\Adobe After Effects CC 2014
and open the after effects render engine. If this does not open due to an error, close it, go to:
C:\Users\"user"\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects\13.1
and delete the file "Adobe After Effects 13.1 Win en_US Shortcuts" then, run the render engine again. Then, once the render engine opens successfully, you can now open after effects cc 2014 successfully.
I am so happy I have found this, and if you find this fix helpful, before sure to like and share to other people

After Effects CC 2014,0 H264 Media export

Windows 8.1 (absolutely nothing to do with the problem)
Quicktime version 7,7,5 (absolutely nothing to do with the problem)
After Effects CC 2014.0
Unable to export media with h264 codec of the same quality as in After Effects CS6,
Media Encoder CC 2014.0 - h264 - worse quality, twice the size of the file
Quicktime - h264 - much lower quality, much larger - about 6x - unusable
Thank you for advice on how to make After Effects reusable software.
Without quality media export this program unusable.

Thank you I learned that it is dependent on the setting. After twenty years of working with AE, it is refreshing to me. I recommend you try the settings before you answer and you will see that the original h264 codec, which was removed from After Effects, had at the same file size much higher quality. Full HD 50p has MediaCoder twice the size of a qucktime h264 is unusable. If you say that the same results can edit the settings, please publish here the settings for full HD 50p. (for sure 50 frames per second 1920x1080 px) After the recent modifications indeed degraded to a tool for Youtube, but before that it was a professional tool for video post-production. Please, therefore the publication of setting the same quality as it was before deleting AE h264 codec.

Slow rendering in After Effects CC 2014

I'm using Adobe After Effects CC 2014.02 on a Macbook pro with 10.9.3 OSX installed.
I need to render a composition that is 3 minutes long, without any special effects or video. It's just a 500 mb Photoshop file with some movements. This takes anywhere from 7 to 30 hours to render. I rendered a similar composition before and this only lasted 20 minutes. Rendering it at a third of the quality only takes a couple of minutes, so the 7 to 30 hours seem excessive.
These are the memory settings:
Installed RAM: 16,00 GB
Current RAM Usage: 9,64 GB
Allowed RAM Usage: 11,00 GB
Process ID
Application Name
Min Needed Memory
Max Usable Memory
Max Allowed Memory

9,64
1 - High
Tried clearing disk and media cache, boosting RAM and installed CUDA, but nothing worked. What could be the problem?

NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB graphics
The time it takes to render is the same in CC. Flattening the file in Photoshop is not an option, since I need all the different layers.
The strange thing is that the first video I made using After Effects rendered fine, while the second one (and the third I'm working on now) are not. So I would think my computer is capable of doing this and it has to be something to do with a setting somewhere. Also, I sent someone on a Windows computer the files and the composition rendered within 20 minutes.

After Effects CC 2014 - Crash on launch

At first - I've read all topics with that problem , and it doesn't work correctly.
I bought After Effects as Single Application yesterday. And I'm very sad, because of this problem. Can anyone help me?
I've tried this - CC Applications crash immediately after launch . It did not make any difference.
I can see the work space of After Effects at start for a slit second before crash. And then my window are makins smaller with crash. But it doesn't save any crash logs. I tried to fix it.
I've reinstalled program something about 5-6 times. I used Cleaner Tool too...
If I opened the topic in wrong way - sorry. I'm new here. Please, if u can - help me !
