Convert new AEP-Projects to older versions for Multiprocessing

[MarcFPV]

Hello Adobe, Hello AE-Users,

i am rendering for 40h now a 10min long Video in the Media Encoder on a Xeon CPU... Removing the Multiprocessing Option was in my Opinion the badest idea you could have... Even if they were a few bugs! I even dont get why you released Adobe AE 2018 without MP. We got some nice Intel Xeon and i7 CPUs here, but everyone is only using like 25% CPU...

Before we desubscribe our Adobe-Subscription because of this very big thing, i want to know if there is any other way to get MP back...  So ive heard about that you can downgrade AE and use Multiprocessing in some older version. But before we downgrade some Desktops here:

1. In which Version can we find a MP-Option again?

2. Can we downgrade our Projects? We mostly just use some Lumetri CC, a Grain Removal and same basic other stuff....

Greetings

Marc

Simple answer: No, no and no. The last version that had the old MP was CC 2014 and since you can only save one version back, you would have to install every version inbetweem CC 2018 and 2014 and convert the projects one step at a time. At the momemt it's a moot point, anyway. The functionality is broken plus if you realyl use Lumetri, you cannot do it to begin with. Lumetri was introduced in CC 2015 and then refined in CC 2017. So no matter what, the whole idea of downgrading to an older version totally makes no sense and will not work.
