This works for my opacity but for my time remapping it just doesn't work at all

I was trying to follow this tutorial but it just isn't looping back to the start, it isn't even the invisible last frame issue many have been having, no it just makes 0 difference when I add the loopOut() expression

Okay I just decided to do it myself by copying the keyframes and after doing it like that, rendering it and then trying to do it with the loopOut() command it just started working. I have no idea how this happened, sorry if you were looking for an answer on how to reproduce/fix the issue

when you use timeremapping, you get 2 keyframes - one at the start, the other at the very end of the precomp. if you create some keyframes in the beginning of the precomp, you must make sure you delete the last keyframe at the end... because it will loop all of them.

What is the actual expression script that you used - copy-paste the entirety of the script that you wrote for the Timeremap property.

So i just ran into this problem. This solution might not work for you, but it did for me. 

I wanted to remap time because i want to loop this text i have. Since loopIn and LoopOut don't work on text source keyframes, i had to precompose the layer and put remap keyframes to the times when the text changed.

 

When i started to play it, it did not loop. My mistake was not realizing that, when you time remap it creates a keyframe at the beginning and the end of the layer you used it on. So my loop was actually working but, since it will loop after the last keyframe it didn't work since the last keyframe is also on the last frame of the comp. 

 

So the fix is: Look if there is a keyframe at the end of the layer, if so, delete it. Now your look should work.

 

I hope this helps some of you
