Effects suddenly stops.

[Timmaaaaaah]

I’ve added a layer with an effect on.

But the effect completely stops working when the video is at 3:38. The video is 6:58 long.

What‘s the solution to this?

[Michael Bullo]

Could you please post some screen shots of your Timeline and Effect Controls panel with elements expanded where relevant.

[Timmaaaaaah]

The effect is looking fine as it is, so I haven't adjusted anything in the effect.

It just stops working at where the timer is now, even though the effect clearly is all the way through.

What do you mean with stop, did you mean it's animated and on this specific time the animation stop? of the effect are totally disappear?

anyway try there to check if their are some keyframe on effect layer,

select this layer and hit UU and check if there are some keyframes.

[Timmaaaaaah]

I've not set any keyframes. I added the effect and let it play as it was from the beginning. And then at that specific time it shows in the screenshot, it just stops, even though it's suppose to go on until the end.

Can we know the name of this effect?

Mood Lighting - Amorphous

[OussK]

Mood Lighting - Amorphous is a preset and not a plugin, anyway it use some expression on the evolution parameter of the fractal Noise effect and this parameter have a limitation of 90 cycle so it will stop after around 3 minutes,

[Timmaaaaaah]

Is there any plugin or preset that'll run through for 7 minutes?

[Martin_Ritter]

Try this expression on Evolution property:

loopTime = 180;

t = time % loopTime;

w1 = t * effect("Mood Lighting - amorphous")("Evolution Speed")

w2 = (t - loopTime) * effect("Mood Lighting - amorphous")("Evolution Speed")

ease(t, 0,  loopTime, w1, w2);

It neatless loops the value after 3 minutes (180 sec). The effect appearance repeats, but nobody will be likely to see this.

[Timmaaaaaah]

It works all the way through now. But it's like it comes and goes now. What do I have to change to keep it persistent?

Open Effect Control panel, select the "Effect" layer and press the U key twice to show us everything you have modified and send us a screenshot.
