After Effects

every time I import a video the audio is a few seconds ahead. I open the mp4 and it's fine, but once I try to edit it with after effects the audio is wrong and I don't know how to fix it. this has never happened until now and I'm not sure what caused it.

Hey! I've been experiencing some lagging in the preview and in the export of my animation with strokes. It's like the ease of animation curves causing lag, regardless of  FPS. In the end of the stroke animation, some lags and bumps appear.I tried change the framerate, to 15, to 60, to 120 and nothing changes.  

I cannot any open project. Need to know why always crash when start the after effect

Running the Apple M2 MaxAfter Effects Version 23.6.0Trying to export a clip with/ Lumetri color crashes or fails every time.  When restarting AE there is a prompt suggesting Lumetri Color is what crashed and to disable the effect. I have coloring nested into a few spots and need to export from AE otherwise would bring it into premiere. Have tested 3 older versions of AE and AME but nothing seems to work.  

i have latest versions of both the software I tried exporting for cinema4d error message ---------------------After Effects: AEGP Plugin Maxon Cinema 4D Exporter...: Code (PF_Err_OUT_OF_MEMORY): Key track insert PLA memory error. Code (PF Err_OUT OF MEMORY): Export/Merge failed. Out of memory in animation allocation. 

Hi,This bug has hindered my video editing progress. It says I have Color Balance HSL missing. When I go to effects, it's under the Missing tab, not under the Obsolete tab.  Does anyone know how to fix this?  I appreciate all the help and feedback. Thank you so much!

I can't seem to select layers using the click/drag method and selection tool. Usually you can darg the selection tool and select multiple layers. Now it won't select anything unless some property is already open. Here's a video.Using latest AE version and Windows 11

I see the below error repeatedly when I open Adobe After Effects.After Effect: Out of memory. (2738K requested) 

Hi, i remember i could always change the prefs file txt way back then. This seems to no not work anymore in 2024. Changes get overwritten on starting AE.Anyone has an idea?  I would like to change the "Number of Project Menu Entries" = "20" to "50" It annoying that this is limited! 

I am relatively new to producing videos and would like to know how other people merge their video and audio into a file that YouTube will accept, and my clients can play themselves?With the method I've been using (below), the audio cannot be AAC, which means they don't play on Apple devices. Right now I have a client urgently wanting to see her video, but I can't find any way to show it to her because she uses Apple devices.Here's how I am going about merging my audio and video - please tell me if you know a better way!1. In Adobe Media Encoder, render the video as h.2642. In Premiere Pro, output a WAV using the "Waveform Audio" setting (can't find any way to do this in AMC).3. Go into my audio workstation, import the WAV file (containing the dialog and sound effects), begin working on my soundtrack. (I'm a musician.)4. Arrange, mix, and master the soundtrack and dialog.5. Export the audio as a 48k WAV.6. Merge together the h.264 video and WAV audio using the program "MKV Merge". This

Hello. I am having a hard time moving the anchor point of my audio amplitude. Every video I have found online with this effect they have their text centered and do not explain how to move the anchor point. In my case, I have two logos that are centered vertically but are both on the left side of the comp, so when the scale changes it shrinks/grows from the right instead of centered on itself. I now realize as I'm typing this I will likely need to duplicate my Audio Amplitude layer in order to center both on each respective logo, but again I would be having the same issue.  I first tried moving the anchor points of each logo, and then moving the anchor point of the Audio Amplitude layer, all of which done through the transform dropdown but nothing is working. I only started using AE last week so could be very off in my method but am looking for some help.Thank you

I know you couldn't do it before but maybe in 2024 there's a way? I want to have a 75% zoom on the playback windows, because 25% is to small to watch it but 50% is zoomed in my composition so I keep having to go and manual put it on ajust mode than zoom out everytime I have to make something go out of the screen, and put it back on ajust when I want to playback.

Hi,Every time I open adobe after effects 2020, or send a video to adobe media encoder 2020, I get an annoying white window that pops up. It briefly says "Loading plans and pricing", but then it's just blank white. When it comes to the media encoder, my video does not appear inside the encoder until I've closed the window, so I can't just ignore it. I have to close it every single time in order to use the programs. My payment information is all up to date and I haven't tried to change my plan in eons, so not sure why this window keeps pestering me. How do I stop this from happening?

Hi all,I am trying to mimic the process of importing items into the project pane in AE, but instead of pulling from a location on the user's computer, I'd like to be able to pull a select number of items from a shared Adobe CC Library that I've created, which would be shared with the user. I can't for the life of me figure out how to call the path to the shared cloud library.In a nutshell, I'd like the user to be able to select a category, and then comb the library for all items that fit in that category, and import them into the project pane, at which point I'll sort them into various comps.Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I've submitted this question to CreativeCow and GitHub and received crickets.Thank you!

I have a MOGRT that animates in text, from 1 line to 3 lines, they need to be centered vertically - automatically, so that when the Premiere Pro editor edits text, wheter 1 or 3 lines, it should always be vertically centered. In total there are just over 2000. Please assist, thanks.

Hello, i'm currently very new to AE and I am using it to make edits. Recently, I finished my first edit and I was extremely excited to finally post it and show my friends, however, when I used file sharing apps and many other methods that people have suggested, the video would never load on my phone. It always says that the file cannot be loaded, I really do not know how to fix this and I've tried everything I can to get it to send to my phone, for example I've used apps such as Airmove or SendAnywhere, I've also tried to email myself and use google drive but none of those work either. I'm using a Samsung/android phone so I don't have access to things such as icloud, please help!

Hi, i am trying to open a new composition. i select files and new file from cinema 4d and my after effects crashes. is there a fix for this?this is what i get after the crash "Last log message was: <5401688> <QT.Afterburner> <5> Hardware support detected for ap4h " 

I have a kind of unique situation, where I have an animation on a path, and I want to loopIn the first three keyframes, and then have more animations on that path afterwards that don't get repeated. (In case that didn't make sense, I'll explain the situation being animated. I bring a character on the screen, and she's waving hi. Afterwards, she puts her arm down. I'd like the part where she's waving back and forth to be looped in, but not the part where she puts her arm down.) I've seen in various places on the web that there are existing expressions for a plain "loopOut" expression for paths (such as here), but I haven't seen any that are "loopIn." And I also haven't found any loopOut expressions that will limit the loop to some of the keyframes. So, to sum up, what I'd like help with is an expression that would be equivalent to loopIn("cycle", [INSERT NUM KEYS]); that would work on path animations. And while you're at it, it would be awesome if you could write an

I have 2 videos that I would like to show simultaneously (crop 50/50) but the second video isn't showing.Instead it shows as blank/black. How do I fix this? 

Bonjour tout le monde.  J'aurais voulu savoir une information concernant l'utilisation de l'outil rotobrush2. Quand je l'utilise sur un calque et que par la suite je fais PLAY sur ma vidéo dans la composition, il y'a toujours une barre verte en bas en m'indiquant "propagation du roto-pinceau 1 sur 25" ce qui me fait perdre enormement de temps car la vidéo ce lis mal si je ne laisse pas cette barre finir son chargement. Est ce que quelqu'un sait si il y'a une option qu'on peut desactiver en attendant de faire le montage et réactiver plus tard ? ou autre chose ? merci à vous bonne journée.
