H.264 in After Effects H.264

[mike233]

In After Effects version 15.1, Quicktime H.264 codec is missing and according to Adobe as of this version it is no longer support H.624 on Windows. Does anyone have a way around this? The TV stations we sends spots to REQUIRE Quicktime H.264.

Thank you so much. It’s very important to have the right codec especially for file size and compatibility. I appreciate it.

Hi guys! I just discovered the solution... i hope can help. (sorry for my bad english)

First... make sure that you have installed the Quicktime Player 7 in your Computer.

1.- The issue is that "Apple Aplication Support" is not running with AE.

2.- Download Quicktime Player 7 from Apple Website.

3.- Using winrar... Right Click on Quicktime7 Installer... and click on "Etract Archives" or "Extraer Ficheros". Put that files in an independent folder.

4.- In the extracted files you´re gonna find this file: "AppleApplicationSupport.msi" Double Click and install. And Done!

Open AE... try to Export in Quicktime and look for the H264 compressor.

Here is your fix.

Render it in HD 1920x1080, then open your file in photoshop. Create a file in 1920x1080 then set it for motion. Import your file that you made in after effects, then resize to fit your canvas, then render in h.264 from there.
