I bought the plugin from the official Video Copilot site. Now when I put Twitch in the After Effects plugin file it won't show up in After Effects. It keep saying that the Plugin is missing. I tried it multiple times but its always the same. I hope someone can help with this problem

( I use the MacBook Pro 2020 M1 )

I had a watermark after installing Twitch, I seen some other people have the same problem. After trial and error I created a folder inside the Plug-Ins folder named twitch, and moved all of these files inside of it.

That's interesting, that didn't work at all for me.

I'm on a 14 inch 2021 Apple M1 Macbook Pro. The folder structure for After Effects 2024 doesn't have the "Support Files" folder on Mac. The Plugins folder just sits directly in the Adobe After Effects 2024 folder.

I still can't use Twitch without opening Adobe AE 2023 on Intel (which is an actual joke) but we may at least be one step closer to finding out why.

Appreciate you adding some info

Ah that's an absolute pain. Going to have to leave two versions of AE installed on my Mac for the forseeable.

Still at least I know not to waste any more time on the subject.

Thanks for sharing!


It's good that so far it works in Adobe After Effects 2023 (23.6.0) for Windows 10. True it doesn't use graphics card acceleration, but it calculates the scene perfectly on CPU.

hi, so here is the thing. Twitch is unfortunatelly not supporting not intel macs (m1,m2...) without rosetta and also after effects 2023 and higher is not able to be run as rosetta so you just cant use twitch on m2 with after effects 2024, developers said they will update twitch but who knows when.

I've been having the same problem too. On the Video Copilot site it says Twitch currently only works on the Rosetta version of AE on M1s, but currently I can't get Twitch to work on either version on M1. I have to keep switching back to my old PC to whenever I need to use Twitch (which is a regular go-to on a lot of my jobs).

Thus far I'm really regretting switching to M1 / Mac in general. The slow pace of companies updating their programs and plugins (or just outright having to buy plugins all over again) is extremely frustrating.

Sorry I couldn't be more use but if I manage to get Twitch working any time soon I'll get back in touch with a solution for you,

I really have no advice other than to look again. This sounds like you simply downloaded the wrong version and may need to give it another whirl. VC only recently have updated their plug-ins (two weeks ago or so) for AE 22.x on Macs, so if you downloaded earlier, you may still have the wrong version.
