Hi Mike,

 

Thanks for writing in.

Is it happening with all the files? Could you try exporting the PSD as JPG/PNG and test? Also, please make sure that the black in PSD file is completely black. You may get this result if your color is slightly gray.

I am moving this thread from Bugs to Discussions for troubleshooting.

Let us know. 

 

Thanks,

Nishu

Tried it with PNG still the same issue.  It seems to be systemic in this version of AE.  Im just changing to lighten for now but Im gonna have to reconfigure this entire project.  Would making a video of it help?  I am a very expereinced AE user, since it was COSA so this is not a newbie making this comment.

I think it does stem from something PSD files is some way, even when I get rid of all the layers and re-import they are not working correctly.

It would be useful if the screenshots weren't cropped. Also some system info might help. This could be a hardware acceleration issue. To test try to use software only mode. Also some info on the PSD file would potentially be relevant. Perhaps it's a color profile issue.
