After Effects

I apologize if this is a double post. I can't seem to find my first one. "Include project link" is not working--specifically with Prores 422LT Quicktime outputs in AE 24.5. It works in other Prores options, such as 422 vanilla and 4444, just not with 422LT. It worked in all previous versions of AE, so this is specific to 24.5. The issue is confirmed on three different Win 11 workstations.

Hello,I am facing a lag in Aftereffects and I have tried to solve the matter by trying different solutions that I could find online but unfortunately the lag is still happening. If I hide mose of the layers that I am not working with then the lag reduces but the problem still persist. Any help would be appreciated.1. Updated the latest version of the GPU driver.2. Empty the disk case / clean media database, and cash 3. Memory reserved for AE 50 Gb4. Deselected Hardware Accelerate Composition Layer.I have attached screenshots of the video in sequrence to show the lag that is happening as i drag the arrow.My Specs:CPU: i7-12700GPU: AMD RX 580 8GB VramRAM: 64GBSSD: 512 GB (more than 300 GB of free space)

Pretty straightforward. We're doing VFX on a film. Some of our artists are in AE. We've sequenced all shots (Slog3) to 10bit DPX. Bring the DPX into AE. Change nothing. Render to QT4444, and there is a very slight pink/magenta tint in the footage. Not extreme, but enough to notice when a lut is applied.This bug has plagued us for years across many shows and we've gone through hoops to work around it, but I want to get to the bottom of this.The other crazy thing is that while the pink shift happens on my co-workers computer, it doesn't happen on mine, and no matter what I try I can't reproduce the bug. We have the exact same system Has anyone else experienced this?

When I press the spacebar it selects the hand tool briefly instead of playing back my preview. When changing audio settings it sometimes works again but even when it plays back my comp it is much slower and more buggy then usual. 

Is there a way to export an animation in adobe after effects as a live photo?

  I was currently working on a project that my boss sent me and noticed that my AE stock effect Fill was missing.  Not sure why it was missing in the first place.  However, installing an older version of AE (23.3) and the issue was resolved. I will stay in 23.3 until this issue has been fixed.

Hi I am animating a bar in AE. but the bar which is behind can be seen as an outline which I dnt want. I need the edges to be as crisp as possible. is there any way I can make it gone with the wind? Thnak you.

Hi, 1 week ago i switched from a windows to a mac laptop, but while trying to install all the adobe programs, i found an issue.  When i try to open aftereffects. it keeps giving the error:After Effects can't continue: The Common Extensibility Platform (CEP) suite couldn't be loaded. You may need to reinstall. After clicking OK, i get another error:After effects can't continue: An unexpected error has occured and After Effects will now shut down. Please check you have the appropriate permission to launch AE as wel as read/write acces to the AE preference folder. If any other error messages were displayed prior to this, please review, and resolve if possible. My laptop is an Macbook Air M2 2022. with 16GB Memory, with the latest macOS, being Sonoma 14.5 at this time. All the folder can read&write, so i don't think there's an issue there. Can anybody help me with this?

I am running into an issue with the expression slider control in AE (screenshots attached). When I export these files as a MOGRT they don't show the shape that the epression error is on. I am assuming once I fix the expression error the MOGRT should work perfectly fine in Premiere.  What am I doing wrong here? Thanks in advance! 

Since a couple of weeky some scripts suddenly stopped working. I was able to tackle down the problem. I created a script with just one line:  alert(Folder.userData) // null I am on a Macbook Pro M1 / OSX Ventura 13.2. Problem appeared in AE 22 & 23. I deleted everything and only installed 23.2.0.  Same Script works within AI and PS and outputs:~/Library/Application%20Support   

How long has this been going on and you still haven't come up with a way to stop it???   Instead of annual releases of garbage new features that we didn't ask for, just fix the basics and do your jobs! 

Opening the exact same project in version 24.5.0 and 24.3.0 respectively gives a very different result... It looks like the light intensity multiplyer is interpreted totally different, however toning down the lights drastically (/8) still doesn't lead to the same visual result.. Has anyone experienced this discrepancy too? 24.5.0  24.3.0

Boa tarde a todos, baixar o datamosh 2 e não estou conseguindo apagar de forma alguma, alguem sabe como faz?

Is there any way to get After Effects to read this? Any way to repair it? Or troubleshooting methods? Unfortunately, I need this version of the file. I had done about a day's worth of work, and all the auto-saves give me the same error. I'm really not sure what happened. Everything worked fine, I did my renders, sent it off to the client and now a week later, it's giving me issues.

 I have a variable defined as aaa= layer.property("Source Text").value;.To avoid modifying aaaa during subsequent processing, I created another variable called bbb:var bbb = aaa;However, when I modify bbb as follows:bbb.text = ccc.text;I noticed that aaa.text gets modified as well.How can I resolve this issue?

I have had this problem with After Effects for several months (Only with this program, the others work fine).I hardly use After Effects only for specific things, but every time I start the program, any action I take begins to consume all the allocated Ram memory that I have, (68GB ram)I have to debug the memory and cache every 3 minutes, but it is not enough, and there are moments where the entire PC hangs and the screen goes black, (it only happens with After Effects, it does not happen with other programs or video games )I don't know what to do anymore, I have visited forums and none of them have a concrete answer, I hope someone here can help meI attach photos of the specifications of my computer and the error that I get very often.

When using expressions to specify a layer name on any property of a layer, if the layer name is modified on the timeline, the layer name in the expression will automatically update.However, if the specified layer name is non-English (e.g., Japanese) and is changed to an English name, the expression will update automatically. If changed to a name containing non-English characters, the layer name in the expression will not update automatically, resulting in expression errors.The same situation applies to text layers with non-English names. Even if the name remains unchanged, modifying the text content will still cause expression errors. This issue does not occur with English-named layers when modifying their text content. After effects 2024 24.5 WIn10.

I am an animation designer on Adobe After Effects. Recently, I designed some animated stickers and tried to export them on bodymovin, but there are many layers (animations and effects) that were not successfully exported.That is, the sticker is exported, but it is missing some layers, such as cc light sweep.When I see some Channels specialized in this field, I know that they use the same effects and their stickers are exported successfully and completely. I attached an example for the kind of stickers I saw ..  Please, I need help with this urgently..

Every time I want to make an advanced stabilization, I need to hit the "show track points" button and then manually erase the un-wanted points over time.This process is very slow and laggy.While I am trying to select the points with the lasso tool, the software just hangs up and the whole process is very cumbersome and unresponsive.Anyone else experienced that?

Hi all. I have a project that has multiple text layers, and the content of those layers is taken from a json file.I use aerender to render that composition, but for some reason every time (or at least 9 out of 10) aerender "decides" to change the font of a glyph for a few frames.So on every render I get some blinking characters that just look like those characters are rendered with a different for for a few frames.I get a blinking effects, because they are not a different font for the entire duration of the layer, but something like 10 frames correct font, 3 frames wrong font etc.This does not happen with the whole text layer, but rather one or a few characters.This does not happen on same layers/characters on each render.This does not happen on all layers, but rather on ~3-5 out of 20. I use this expression to get the content of the text layers, because each layer has the same name as its value form the json file:"eval("var src=" + footage("json.json").sourceText); Than
