After Effects

I’m working in 32-bit float for a broadcast UHD job, and when I try to render final output as a ProRes QuickTime, random frames (around 1 in 50) render with colour/luma shifts. It’s completely random -  I had to clear memory/cache until it rendered successfully.  And for longer clips, I was able to get it to render by manually placing single-frame adjustment layers with a levels effect (not set) over the frames that had the glitches.This is a serious bug. I tried render with multiprocessing disabled, but it still happens. I can supply projects and examples showing the issues to AE engineers if needed. Anyone else having this issue?

When an ACES-managed project uses the “ACES/sRGB” View Transform, the Comp panel is tone-mapped correctly, but the Mercury Transmit output ignores that transform and displays the image as if “None / ACES Raw” were selected, causing noticeable contrast and gamma differences between the two monitors. EnvironmentOS: Windows11 Home 10.0.26100 Build 26100After Effects: 25.2.2 (Build 2) – UI language en_US Display setup:Monitor (BenQ EW3280U) #1 – UI preview (sRGB)Monitor (CG2420) #2 – Mercury Transmit output (Rec.709) Project / Color settingsColor Engine → “OCIO color managed”OCIO Config → built-in “ACES 1.2”Working Color Space → “ACES – ACEScg”Display Color Space → default “ACES/Raw” (no option for ACES/sRGB)Comp panel View Transform → “ACES/sRGB” Steps to reproduceCreate a new 32-bit float comp with the settings above.Add a color chart or any high-contrast image.Enable Mercury Transmit and send a full-screen preview to Monitor #2.Compare the Comp panel (Monitor #1) wit

Object Matte also doens’t exist. I have the newest version as well as I just updated it 

In AE 2026 is the new unmult effect which works well until you apply it to video which have transparency (alpha channel). Then the result is unacceptable with strong banding and color shift. If I compare result to other unmult effects or workarounds, the result of native new effect is totally different while other methods/plugins does well and practicaly the same output. I can provide the whole project with one frame from the footage, or the whole animation,Sample image attached.I tried change bit depth and colorspace but that does not change anything. 

 I've looked through many tutorials and they all show the button, for some reason it is not here.

I think the whole AE app just crashed on my Mac. I'm really hopeless right now.I have tried every option in the Crash Repair Options tab, but none of it seems to work. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, restarting the device, cleaning up, clearing the cache, and everything; still, it always shows these two tabs.I have given read/write access to the pref folder as well.Before this, I was doing well with both ver. 26 and 26.2. Plus, I never used third-party plugins in my AE.Please help me out...

If not disabled, I encounter a decoding error. This workaround, which I found in an Adobe Community forum thread titled "ProRes RAW can't be decoded" (Thread ID: 13123838), has been a temporary fix for nearly two years, yet a permanent resolution is still pending.) All other ProRes Codec's work FlawlesslyIn my project configured with OCIO color management set to Aces 1.2, importing ProRes Raw clips operates smoothly unless I precompose or add any effects. When effects like Lumetri Color are added, the preview freezes, and actions like purging RAM and cache or closing the project cause After Effects to crash. Switching to Adobe's color management and modifying the ProRes raw source settings in the 'More Options' of the Interpr

Hi, Scince updating to the latest version  25.3.2 and something weird happened. I re named a file and it went missing of course. So I re linked it and saved the Ae files.But every single time I open the Ae file, I keep getting the same missing files msg and I have to re link it EVERY SIGNLE TIME. I tried saving a new file version but it's the same. I just installed a fresh windows 11 today and got the same thing!! Help please
