Invalid Image Buffer Size?

Hi everyone.

A question, recently I've just downloaded an AE template and after adding the images which are only in the forms of .png, pop-up messages saying "Invalid image buffer size (64101 x 61101)" keeps appearing even after I've removed those photos.

1. Does anyone know what might be the reason for this, and how to fix this?

2. Is it still possible to render the video despite all these messages appearing during the preview?

I don't know if this information helps, but I'm using AE CC 2017, with a 16GB storage.

    Are they also removed from the project?  The maximum dimension in AE, either vertical or horizontal, is 30,000 pixels.

    I have a similar issue, was anyone able to solve it? 

    "Invalid image buffer size (0 x 1)". ( 37 :: 102 )

     

    It started to appear out of nowhere today. Only solution is to keep deleting the preference file and edit the project.

    Hi 

    one of the experiences that I have as to this issue is, the meaning of dimension is not only the size of your solid or composition but the exposure or blur effects also affect the dimension. for example, you may use a high exposure or light on the top layer, and on the second layer, you use high blur effects. some times when they combine with other layers this error pop up.

    Today have same issue, the problem solved after turning off 3d layer effect for big picture 3800*16300px, and i just had to render that without 3d camera, just scale in/out

    Templates are notoriously complicated -- if they were easy, who would buy them if they could make the projects themselves? 

    Your screen shot reveals a bunch of nested comps.  You will have to work your way through all of them to find the offending footage.

    Another way would be to highlight every piece of footage in the project to look at  the dimensions in the info pane at the top of the project window.  Then you have to decide if you want to remove it from the project, or use a different application to reduce the dimensions.

    Frankly, I don't understand how footage with dimensions over 60K even got included in a template.
