Hi, and i am at an end here.
I read many artikles on "the black screen" but to no evale. All my projects now render BLACK.

Info.
Letast version of EA en OS
CPU is fine, no 3rd party install.

Used 3D layer but i think thats fine, no probs earlyer. Tryed quicktime alfa's + rgb. Didn't work, accually non of the alfa renders worked.

Nothing was wrong after using Alfa channels for a render. Now all i get is BLACK. Like i said, also the ones that aren't rendered as Alfa.


i'm on a deadline. Think i am. 😉

Help!

Black Screens for me happen when the graphics card has crashed.  Nothing fixes it except restarting.

 

If you've tried that, see what happens if you go to File > Project settings and switch to software only.

Next, it's possible you've accidentally created a Region of Interest (a small section of the comp window which is the only area which updates.  Failing all that, can you post a screenshot showing your entire window.  Just in case there's a solo switch or something else

That video is helpful as is the comp window.  I see you're using a lot of 3D layers and in the video half of shot would disappear.  Is there any chance you have several layers occupying the same 3D space - this flickering might be caused by one layer "jumping" infront of another.  Setting them back by a pixel or two might solve this issue.

I have also tried to export it as a mp4 footage and use it in the big frame and then the trouble started. So. I can't go for or backwards.

This is a really odd problem you're having.  I've turned to the search forums option to see if I can help you solve this:

Could your Mac Book be switching Graphics Cards automatically?

From this link: https://helpx.adobe.com/support/after-effects.html

Near the bottom of the screen there is a Contact Us button.  I beleive it takes you to live chat.  You might have to wait a little, but their support is excellent - they've bailed me out of issues a couple of times.
