the viewer flickers when moving objects

Which version of AE (is it 24.5x17)? Can you list your hardware for me? 

We are aware of an issue in the current beta that sounds like what you're describing but I'd like to confirm with you on which build. Thanks.

When I mouse over a layer in the timeline or the viewport, the viewport flashes briefly. Happens regardless of composition, layer type or effect.

Expected result: the viewport does not flash.

AE beta 24.5.0 build 17

Windows 10 22H2 19045.4291

The preview blinks when you scroll with the mouse along the timeline. when the mouse moves from one layer to another, and when in the preview the mouse leaves and enters the boundaries of the work area. maybe in other situations too.

Is it possible to roll back to the previous version 24.5 and not to version 24.4?

Steps to reproduce:
    1. Move playhead to change frame manually, or do anything that would cause the comp frame to refresh.
 
Result: Comp preview window turns black briefly before showing the updated frame. (see attached screen capture)
Expected: Previous frame remains visible until the updated frame is ready.

Workaround: Roll back to v24.4.0.41

The preview window flickers when scrubbing the timeline, and even when just hovering and moving the mouse over the timeline.  This happens in all projects, including ones made before the error started occurring. The same projects are fine in the release version of AE.

Steps to reproduce: open any project, move the mouse and/or scrub the timeline.

Same issue, any idea when this will be fixed? Starting a project and hoping to use the awesome new UI!

[Shebbe]

Grabbed the latest beta build and noticed the viewer is flickering constantly whenever it needs to update, like scrubbing the timeline or moving the viewer canvas. It happens in an empty project already with only one comp created.

24.5.17 / Win11 / RTX3090

[EDIT]

Post about this issue already present here.

[Frank_B]

Same. Flickers since yesterday, right after AE Beta update.
EDIT: there's another thread where this bug has been reported.

[jenkmeister]

Should have a new beta build out in a few hours from now that fixes the issue. Sorry for the trouble!

[jenkmeister]

New beta build with a fix for the issue should be out in a couple of hours from now.

[Frank_B]

Thanks for fixing. No more flickering with the recent update.

[jenkmeister]

The flickering should be fixed in 24.5x21 that is now available. Sorry for the issues.
