I cant export my projectAfter Effects Error: An attempt was made to render a frame with an unsupported frame size (\1 x \2). The frame size must be between 1 and \3 pixels in width and height.Check the layer dimensions and the output of any effects that might modify the layer's contents. (37 :: 102)

¡Hola! Estoy teniendo un problema con un archivo. Al principio se reproduce con normalidad en la línea de tiempo, pero a partir de la mitad deja de reproducirse y aparece un error. Intenté entrar directamente a las composiciones, pero la pantalla se pone negra y el video no se reproduce, aunque los archivos siguen estando en su lugar. probe guardandolo en otro lugar o con otro nombre pero el problema sigue.Todas las composiciones usan los mismos recursos: imágenes de Adobe Illustrator, archivos de audio y Animation Composer, así que no entiendo por qué ocurre esto. En la tercera captura se puede ver que solo falta un archivo, pero no estoy segura si eso es lo que está causando el problema. Agradecería mucho su ayuda con esto.

Replace Footage should open to where the current asset lives. Please fix.

This is maybe a minor annoyance but in software I use everyday is going to slowly drive me mad.  Since updating to AE 2025 every time I start the software it creates an Untitled Project, then I go to open the project I'm working on and have to go through a Save menu to get to what I'm working on.  Who wants this? Why?  Settings > Start Up > Home Screen is already checked.  Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

When I am trying open several actual projects made in AE2025.2. AE2025.1 (or beta), I am receivning error message about some duplicated text and then report about corrupted project and skipped sections.When I open project in 2025.1 or beta, no error appear, everythink works OK. When I resave the project from beta, it seems to be OK and it is possible to open project in AE2025.2.2 without message..I had no errors while using 2025.1 / 2025.2

Hi,Problem: On After Effects version 25.2 and 25.2.2 audio doesn't synchronize properly the first time the ram preview is played. You have to stop the ram preview hit "0" key again and then it plays with audio properly synch.Version 25.1 works fine.This behavior is there for a very long time. and version 25.1 was a great improvement since the audio ram preview never work proprerly since version 2014 (!). I was so surprise and so happy to see it was fixed but here we go again. What on the earth you guys are doing with ram preview audio synch ? Why don't you fixed it once ans for all ? Adding new features are great but please fix first fundamentals fonctionality like ram preview first and definitively.I repeat 25.1 works fine so please reverse back to what you did for 25.1(I am on pc Windows 10 but I was for a while on Mac and ram preview never played properly on Mac too)  

Hi guys, anyone working in AAE in an ACES workflow is probably familiar with the annoying input footage setup. Has anyone managed to set up their own interpretation rules for After Effects 2025? I don't think it works in the ACES workflow. Or am I writing it wrong? *, *, *, "oEXR", * = *, *, *, P, "scene_linear: ACEScg", **, *, *, "JPEG", * = *, *, *, *, "pRGB", * Thanks for any answer.

At the current state of After Effects, the Properties Panel feels very slow to scroll compared to others like the Project Panel or the Effects Control Panel. The scrolling bar at the right side of the Properties Panel is also smaller compared to the others.It would be great if navigating through this panel felt the same way as the others.

The color picker functionality has changed and I have to physcially hit ok with the mouse, otherwise it activates the picker again and I lose my color when I click. I've done this dozens of times already! Please bring back "Enter" to select the color.

I have been having issues with some MP4 files in After Effects. However, the same files work absolutely fine in Premiere Pro. I am using the latest version of After Effects, 25.1.0 on a Mac Studio Ultra M2 with 128 gigs of RAM and OS Sonoma 14.7.3.There is a huge inconsistency. Also, After Effects still crashes after I process the culprit files through Media Encoder or directly through Premiere. It also crashes in Safe Mode as well as after I blow away preferences. I am grading my students' projects and will upload one of the files that keeps crashing After Effects. I have many other examples of files that cause crashes as well as many examples of files that don't. I have been using After Effects since 1995 and have been able to troubleshoot about every technical issue I have encountered. I may have met my match with this one. But I hope someone has a solution.

Got my computer from repair, fresh install of after effects, no pluginsNow I can't work with it as it keeps crashing constantly.

Using After Effect this morning trying to get something out asap and I double click on the comp that I want to edit and it won't open. I've restarded the whole computer etc and then created a new comp and the new comps won't open either. 

Hello!  So i was working on a project whothout any problem until yesterday, basically it's a really "simple" project without any 3rd party plugins or with high 3d or FX.. Sudenly my project wont open anymore, when i try to open it it pops a warning of cache (but i already clean it, give it more space, etc) it loads the project and the moment i try to do something it crashes. Is there any fix to thisor a workout? I have also tried to import the whole project into a new one, does the same thing. Can't even get the error file, it erases as AE crashes. Need urgent help! Pls.Specs of System:AE (Beta) 25.3 / AE 25.2.2 (same problem on both)MacOS Sonoma 14.7.4Chip M1 Pro32GB Ram1TB SSD 

This is a strange one because I only recently began seeing this notification when AE is loading plugins. Plus the fact that I have been using Neat Video V5 for some time now, and looking back, doesn't look like I EVER had V4 installed for AE (although I did for Premiere Pro). Also, the file path it specifies doesn't even exist (there is no "Plugin-ins" folder inside of "Common"). I'm just wanting AE to forget about this. Any ideas? After Effects 25.2.2MacOS SequoiaMac Studio M1 Ultra

Issue - Poor UI performance on G-SYNC enabled displaysAdobe After Effects version number: 25.2.2Operating system: Windows 10 Pro 64bit, build 19045.5737Steps to reproduce - Open AE on a G-SYNC enabled display and drag UI bounds, then compare same action on non-G-SYNC display.Expected result - Normal UI speedActual result -  Poor UI speed I use a dual-display setup. The displays specs are as follows:1) NEC MultiSync® EA275UHD 2) LG 27GL83A-B 27 Inch Ultragear QHD IPS 1ms NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible Gaming I’ve noticed the After Effects UI performance drops significantly on the G-SYNC enabled high-refresh gaming display. This performance degradation doesn’t happen if I use the app on the NEC display. Spanning the app across both displays does not improve UI performance. Disabling Nvidia G-Sync seems to improve performance on the LG display. The NVIDIA control panel states “As a prerequisite for Windowed G-Sync, an application needs to be profiled by NVIDIA or manual

I tried this suggestion, but it didn't work.https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects-discussions/after-effects-black-preview-screen-on-after-effects-2025/m-p/15203554So, I decided to disable my Display Adapter in Device Manager, and it worked. However, when I open After Effects, it says, "Advanced 3D is not supported by current Hardware." My work requires the use of Advanced 3D, so I don't know what to do now.I use an NVIDIA GTX 1060 3GB RAM 64 and I have already updated my drivers.In this Pic i try to created shape but it won't work 

Buenos días, Llevo un par de dias intentando exportar un proyecto pero no me deja, al llegar a cierto punto me aparece ''Memory allocation of 2,1GB exceeds internal limits. Decrease the memory requirements for the rendering of this frame. (12802). He probado de borrar el disk caché, buscado los errores tipicos de after, si algun efecto excedia los limites de la RAM o alguna cosa, pero todo está bien. El video es un carrusel donde muestro diferentes colores de un producto, el carrusel es de 9 productos y tengo que hacer 2, lo raro es que en el primer carrusel no he tenido ningún problema en renderizar y en el segundo me aparece el problema. ¡Gracias! 

After Effects freezes on "Initializing Required Components" when launching.However, if I open it immediately after starting the PC, it launches fine and works for 1–2 minutes. After that, it crashes, and any attempt to reopen it causes the freeze again — until I restart the PC.What I’ve Already Tried:Fully uninstalled and reinstalled After EffectsTried After Effects BetaCompletely removed and reinstalled Creative CloudReinstalled Windows from scratchApplied numerous technical suggestions from forums and ChatGPT, including:Killing background Adobe processesDeleting cache folders (like CCX Welcome)Disabling the Start Screen in prefsBlocking Adobe background tasks via Task SchedulerLaunching AE in a clean state using .bat filesDisabling GPU acceleration in prefsAnd more...Why I’m Posting Here:I’ve already talked to Adobe Support twice, and while the agents were kind, the suggestions repeated what I had already done. I don’t blame anyone, but I’m just feeling stuck.If anyone here has exper

The first bug is the simplest to describe/report. As of 25.2, when I create a text layer and then select some text and right-click, I am no longer able to add a text animator (the option is greyed out/not selectable). --The second bug is that running a script through Kbar disables the option to use keyboard shortcuts to select another layer (ctrl+up/down) unless I select the composition panel again. This is also new as of 25.2. I have a script that copies any markers on a selected layer to the composition timeline. It used to be the case that I could click the Kbar button to run the script, press ctrl+up to select a different layer, and then press the Kbar button again without having to reselect the composition panel.--The feature request is related to the Glow effect. It used to be that the glow radius and intensity were simple values (presumable pixel values?). Now they are percentages which for some reason makes stacking multiple instances of glow far less intuitive and mo

In latest AE 25.2.2  is strange bug - When you use intensivelly layer markers and zoom into the timeline, then mysterious, non existing markers pops up. When you continue to zoom into timeline  (using mouse wheel and alt), they dissapear, but appear again when you move and zoom in and out over the timeline. Video with recorded buggy behavior attached.. And also the whole timeline picture to prove that markers does not exist in real..I did not observe this in 25.2It is just happening in 25.2.2

Issue:16-bit RPF image files causes AE to crash.No error message shows up and no crash log is generated in: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects\<version>\logsAE only crashes when importing 16-bit RPF. Importing 8-bit RPF works. Other image settings have no impact.All versions of AE from 24.6.5 to latest are affected.Importing the images in version 24.6.4 works.Can't attach sample files because the forum doesn't support RPF. But the images were generated using Cinema 4D by selecting RPF in "Render Settings > Save > Format" and setting "Depth" to either "8 Bit/Channel" or "16 Bit/Channel". Version numbers:From 24.6.5 to 25.2.0 Operating system:Windows 11 Pro 23H2 Steps to reproduce:1. Open AE.2. Import a 16-bit RPF image file.3. Add the image to a new composition.

In Teresa's original post about the AE Benchmark Project, the link to download the project itself is broken. (I assume this is an unintended casualty of the recent-ish cloud storage change). I commented on the post itself a few weeks ago, but I haven't yet seen a response, and have gotten a handful of folks messaging me directly about obtaining the project.Ideal: A more official page hosting this and other relevant AE projects / info. I know the "scores" posted by other users will get outdated as time passes, but that still seems like useful information for users to have access to, and could probably be made far more discoverable.

[Moderator: Updated title for clarity and making searching easier. This issue also affects Premiere Pro and Media Encoder.]   A month ago I updated my 2021 MacBook Pro to the latest Mac OS Sequoia 15.0.1 and that's when I began experiencing render issues when rendering H.264 from After Effects (2024 & 2025) or Media Encoder (2024 & 2025). The render plays back okay but when I scrub through, but when I scrub through the timeline, in AE, Quicktime, Frame.io, etc, I notice every 4th or so frame has terrible artifacting. I've been able to work around this for a month by sending ProRes LT to my clients, however now a client is asking for a H264 so I'm stuck trying to figure this out or encode it on an old MacBook that still has an older MacOS version.    If it helps at all, I've noticed when turning Audio Off when rendering through Media Encoder, the problem goes away, but obviously that's not a real solution. Anybody else have this issue and found a fix?   I'm
