Bug Reports

I've experienced that when I hit play to preview, the audio starts, but the image stays frozen and struggles to load. After about 4 or 5 seconds, the image starts to play back little by little. I'm not sure if this is a bug or due to my hardware, but with earlier versions of After Effects, like 2021, which is the one I've used the most, this doesn't happen. If it's not a bug and there's some configuration setting to address it, I'd appreciate any help, as this issue significantly disrupts the workflow. Thanks, best regards!

It’s been years, but the issue of the significant slowdown in UI refresh rate when 3D layers gizmos are shown is still present, but Adobe continues to add 3D features to AE without fixing an issue that makes the 3D workspace practically unusable when working with multiple 3D layers.The issue has been reported and discussed multiple times in many posts,https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects-bugs/interface-is-slow-and-laggy/idi-p/13229563https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects-beta-bugs/ae-beta-22-3-0-low-performace/idi-p/12740169but as of today, version 25.1.0 beta build 43, it still hasn’t been addressed or fixed, as shown in this video:https://youtu.be/HZGj8-RJkCQCould we please @Jessica McMillan @jenkmeister17177426 get an update on the status of the fix for the issue?Thanks

UI Scripts panels are working now but many of them look off.Beta:2024: 

In the latest AE beta build it seems that media from iPhone 15 in Apple Log gets interpreted incorrectly. It is much more flat than it is supposed to be. This error is not seen in our 24.0.3 release version or in Premiere release/beta.

Hi folks, in the instance of reconnecting files, say to a harddrive or network that was was remounted, or moved project files, everything links up in a '20 files found' situation, but does not include linking Proxies.

In the 25.00 beta the number counter effect that shipped with 24.5 doesn't work if you check the show group separators checkbox. Still works in AE 24.5.   

Hi,I am using After Effect Beta since last week, all work like a charm. Today less. I had 4 graphic card crashes when I clic on another app (like firefox, discord or thunderbird). I have the proposal to render only in mercury and don't do anything, then 1 minute laterr, I have a BSOD with mention Video scheduler internal error. I'm using one 3rd party plugin (Shadow Studio 3), maybe this is it, but just in case, I report the bug. All the best.

Hello,Basically, im using this Extension called uwu2x and in the ae beta, after opening the Extension from the Windows tab it appears to be just a white screen. Nothing, else. I saw some people adding a PlayerDebugKey to reg editor and i tried that but it still doesnt work. Appreciate any help!

after updating Ae won't launch (tried to reinstall &  reboot)here are the missing list in error messages:VCRUNTIME140_1D.dllMSVCP140D.dllVCRUNTIME140D.dll Windows 11 i9-10980HK48Gb RAMRTX 2080 Super Max Q 

Might be a stupid question, but up until yesterday AE Beta 25 was working fine, now I can't open it. I'm told I'm missing some dll files (MSVCP140.dll, ucrtbased.dll, VCRUNTIME140D.dll and VCRUNTIME140_1D.dll). If I downgrade AE, it opens just fine. Every other Adobe program works as well, even Premiere Beta 25. After Effects Beta 25 is the only one I'm having trouble with.  I've tried uninstalling every Visual C++ package and installing again, still getting the error messages. 

Adding the 'Blend w. Original' property of CC Toner to Essential properties, then viewing that precomp with the Properties panel remaps the 0-100% range of the original value to 0-1%. Steps to Repro:Add CC Toner to a Layer in Comp A, then add 'Blend w. Original' to Essential PropertiesNest Comp A in Comp B, then use the Properties panel to adjust the 'Blend w. Original' propertyThe value range in the properties panel is now mapped 0-1%, with values between 0-100 being remapped to fit in that range. Expected behaviour:Properties panel would display the same 0-100% value range as the Effect / Essential Graphics panels for that property. Found in Win 11, Beta 25.0.0 Build 33, also confirmed in Release. Cheers!

The "tint" is crashing the latest AE beta for me ( 4k 32bpc comp ).Disabling it and re-activating it didn't helpWindows 11 / AE Beta 25.0.0 build 27

I've been trying to figure this out since the v25 of the beta for AE came out. It'll open just fine but then the minute I create a composition and/or try to add a layer, beach ball appears. I'll try to open it in Safe Mode to see if any particular script is causing the issue but I also wanted to know where I could find crash logs for the AE beta to submit and hopefully someone could take a look.

I've tried to set a Keyboard Shortcut for both Reveal in Explorer and Reveal in Project, but neither of them work.

First I couldn't use the expression "effect("Turbulent Noise")(21) + time * 2000" on Turbulent Noise because the evolution stopped after 15-16 seconds although there were no additional keyframes or other expressions on that layer and the evolution indicator showed that it was evolving. I could only resolve that issue by manually setting keyframes with an evolution setting of up to 100. When I entered 200 or 300 the freeze was back. Then, the layer in question suddenly increased in opacity randomly, again without any changes, keyframes, other layers etc. What could be the issue?

I have a comp with a Spot Light, and I separated the xyz Position dimensions. But the combined xyz position also remained, so I now have "Position, X Position, Y Position and Z Position" which makes no sense: 

Steps to reproduce:    1. Do something that probably involves saving things, like exporting a mogrt.

If I'm creating a mogrt in AE, and "Add Formatting" > Add Group, and put some things in that group, when I export the mogrt and import it into PPro, one or more of those things are no longer in that group, which is rather annoying. I've tried using the release versions of AE (24.5.0x52)  and PPro (24.5.0x57) and the beta versions of AE (24.6.0x65) and PPro (24.6.0x75) but the problem is the same...well, I think it's slightly worse in the Beta versions - I seem to have two things "fall out" of the group, and it tends to be only one "fall out" in the release versions. Here's the mogrt in AE:...the "Growing Headline" checkbos is happily in the Headline group. But in PPro:The last one or two things in a group tend to fall out of the group. Deleting the old mogrt from my library, then re-exporting the mogrt from AE, then replacing it in the timeline (and saying "yes" to replacing all occurrences of that mogrt in the project) does not change anything. I've tried adding rand

Dans la version française (et probablement dans toutes les autres langues), on a toutes les catégories d'effets dupliquées, une fois en français pour les effets Adobe, une fois en anglais pour les Cycore. Si vous avez le temps de corriger ça, pensez aussi à traduire la catégorie Blur & Sharpen par Flou & Netteté (comme dans Premiere). Ça évitera d'expliquer qu'il faut aller chercher les effets de flou dans la catégorie Netteté ; ce qui dès le début d'une formation ne donne pas une bonne image de la traduction.

Hi After Effects team, I recently got into the world of expressions, and I noticed something that feels like a bug, so I'm reporting it here 🙂 When you try to rename an effect name that's linked inside an expression, using a try catch method. It unlinks the effect from the expression, while a normal expression without try & catch does rename it properly. I've attached a video showing the issue, and the project file, hope that helps explain it. Thanks in advance!Kind regards,Onno Build:24.6.0 Platform:MacOS Sonoma 14.5Apple M2 Max, 64GB 

app.project.usedFonts doesn't work Properly, If we duplicate a text layer and change the font of either one of the layers, It won't detect the old font used in the original layer. Even if we remove the layer which have the new font. It always shows us the removed font (second font). Not the font that remain in the project.
