25.1 UI Lag

Is there any update on this? The laggy GUI is making my work very annoying

Thanks for sharing the details @Trenton J Waller & @davidfols. Please allow us some time while we look into it.

Best,

Nishu

I am also having serious lag as well with all aspects of the program. A smaller comp (1440x64) with two images and 3 lines of text takes 15 seconds to render. It is completely unbearable.

Specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3950x

GPU: Nvidia RTX 4080

RAM: 128GB DDR4

@nishu_kush here's a more expansive demo of the issue. Not sure if this will be helpful in further diagnosis.

Great ideas @nishu_kush! Unfortunately, still the same UI lag after trying those.

Updated my GPU driver:

Unchecked that box:

@Trenton J Waller, is your GPU driver updated to the latest? Can you try disabling the Hardware Accelerated Composition, Layer, and Footage Panels in After Effects preferences > Display?

Let us know if that brings any change.

Thanks,

Nishu

@nishu_kush here is a similar demo using ctrl+alt+shift to bring up the safe mode dialog as instructed. Disabled third party plugins and got the same result:

Hi @nishu_kush I have tried safe mode and am still getting the same results.

Here is a demo:

I seem to be having the exact same problem. I'm wondering if it's to do with AMD hardware. My Intel and Nvida laptop do not have this issue.

Specs:

CPU: Ryzen 9 5900X

GPU: Radeon RX 7900 XTX

RAM: 32GB DDR4

Thanks for writing in, Trenton J Waller.

I did some testing, and I didn't see the issue. Are you using any third-party plug-ins? Can you try running After Effects 25.1 in Safe Mode with Third-party plug-ins disabled?

Let us know if that brings any change.
