24.x.x. Impossible work with Mac. ARRI ALEXA MINI ProRes 4444XQ Lumetric flickering

[Dovile29905518tibf]

When working with ARRI ALEXA MINI ProRes4444XQ footage

lumetrics glitching, jumping on individual frames up and down. Very slightly, on all colors.

Rendering ProRes4444XQ. On each render in different places glitch. Some glitch remaining in the same places.

1. M1 Max export resulting lots of glitches

2. Intel based mac less glitches

3. On the same render setting form M1 max and Intel mac different color results.

4. On After Effects version 23.x.x Perfect renders without any glitches or errors.

This problem was always with the new updates of After effects. Now it's taking too long.

Impossible to work. Always need to to make final renders on older version.

Problem on this machines:

After Effects version 24.3.0 

macOS 14.4.1

macbook Pro M1 max

and also:

After Effects version 24.0.1

macOS 14.0

Intel macPro 2019

Have you tried creating a proxy ?  It will make the workflow smoother and faster 

[Paul Uu]

A few questions:
1. I'm not clear what is happening in your screen recording. Is the footage jumping back and forth in time? 
2. Does this occur without the Lumetri effect applied?
3. Do you see this same glitching behavior in Premiere Pro or Media Encoder with this footage?
4. Do you see this same glitching behavior in the current After Effects 24.5 Beta release?
5. Could you possibly upload a small sample clip that causes the issue to occur?

[Dovile29905518tibf]

it's not about working smoother. I'm working with raw footage, and need to deliver raw footage for CC. Its's about jumping colors (glitching). In example I just showing that in one frame we see one lumetric and in other you can see lumtertic shifts.

[Dovile29905518tibf]

1. no, footage is not jumping. it's just to show the result of lumetri scope in different frames.

2. no, problem occur on raw footage and also same result on exported footage

3. Premiere and Encoder all good

4. 24.5 Beta also all good

5. here are examples of export of (v24 and v23) https://we.tl/t-ILmRjZCdDN 

also attaching lumetri comparison preview of the same footage with v24 and v23 (the same video on different after effects versions)

similar glith was one year ago. after disabling "Enable hardware accelerated decoding" was fine.

now with mac's always need to disable all hardware accelerated features. 

Error was spoted on arri alexa mini footage. But strange thing that even exported with v23 (which is good) and imported on v24 resulting the same error.

[Dovile29905518tibf]

FOUND THE PROBLEM

Project settings shoud be:

Working Color Space: Rec.709 Gamma 2.4

+ Compensate for scene-referred profile

don't know why, but earlier settings occuring that errors.

[Dovile29905518tibf]

Update.

some problem solved but some still not.

at some projects still have jumping lumetri frames...

anoying, but understand that just v24.x.x not yet ready for normal work.

[Dovile29905518tibf]

To help spot and solve the problem I can colab.

I can do zoom ar other video call to show exact what is wrong. Or send project files. Anything what could help.

Just write me here cipkus@gmail.com 

Please, I want to work as it should be. To trust the software, but not to spend hours with reRendering footage for CC.

If after each render I must to import to DaVinchi and re-check every frame then it's waisting of time and not possible to work at all.

Thanks.
