Question

Layers not updating after importing frames to layers

Hello,

 

I am running the most current version on PS and started running into an issue where I can't update the layer/frame I am viewing after importing frames to layers. I only imported about 100 frames/layers and never used to have this issue. I tried to disable my GPU and no luck. I tried using different video files and no luck. I am running Windows 10 all of my drivers are up to date. This is really the only thing I use PS for as I do all of my edits in LR and I am quite frustrated I can't view all of the frames. I'm at a loss.

Looks like the layers were imported and multiple frames made by clicking the new frame button (keeping the same state of the document with all the layers turned on).

 

I just deleted all the frames and chose Make Frames from Layers from the Timeline panel menu and it plays correctly:

Here is a dropbox link to an example PSD

All of the layers show, but they all show as the same layer/image. It's basically just repeating the same first frame as all layers. I tried to go back to V22 and still having the same issue. I have tried with various videos, including ones I have used to import layers to frames in the past. I will have to save a PSD and post here when I return home later today. Thanks for the quick response!

Update: I exported a few layers as a test, and every layer/frame is just identical. So it's not actually creating layers from the frames but just a bunch of identical layers from one frame. So frustrating.

Does the layers panel show all the layers in the layer stack and they just aren't showing correctly on the canvas? Can you save and share the PSD you have? (Link to CC files or dropbox)
