Background Autosave? Nah... Layer Groups? Nah. After 25 years of AE compositing and feature requesting, I'd jump ship tomorrow if there were a comprable product with a dev team that listened to the user base. ... View more

Just for the sake of clarity to any adobe personnel that may be reading, it's not just me. It's my whole team. I am just one contractor on this particular project, and I'm not certain of the hardware that everyone is running beyond the fact that we are all running some version of apple silicon. I just know that 4 out of 4 compositors/editors on this particular project are having the worst Adobe CC issues we've ever had. Adobe, Rather than adding new fancy AI features, can reliability be the focus of the next few versions? I'm sure me and my team are not alone on this request.   Again, sorry for ranting. The frustration is peaking. ... View more

With the previous versions that I was running, I had not been using the separate spaces hack, because I had moved to a mercury transmit solution for displaying all the frames to an external monitor via a blackmagic card. soo.. frames were still stuttery on my main monitor. This is different, now I am struggling to even get a ram preview in the first place. If I have AE and Premiere open at the same time... forget about it. It'll ram preview about 12 frames and then just sit there. It's unusable, and I am up against production deadlines. ... View more

I have made a critical mistake. Trusting that the problem was being incrementally worked on, I upgraded to MacOS 14.2, and After Effects 24.1. Running on an expensive a$$ M2 Ultra Mac Studio, it feels like I'm trying to crank out pixels on a powermac G4. I really wish this nightmare would end already. I invest hard earned money to making sure that I have current, high end equipment. All I ask is that the latest software runs smoothly on that equipment. I'm very near my breaking point on this issue. I did this upgrade in the middle of a project that is being done in 1080 24p. I'm not even asking AE to crank out 4k comps.  Since this series of software "upgrades" things have doubled the amount of render/RAM preview time needed. I miss the days pre-CS6, and pre-subscription, when the software was rigorously tested before being released. This is rough. 25 years I've invested into After Effects, and this is by far the worst it's been.   Apologies for the rant. ... View more

I just did the update.. it made no difference. Still stuttery on GUI monitor, still smooth on the mercury transmit monitor. ... View more

For sure, Warren. I'm not doing broadcast work currently, although I did years ago.. Mostly just tons of corporate B2B videos these days. All internet delivery stuff. But the broadcast style breakout setup is an upgrade for my home suite. Might as well make lemonade out of these dang lemons. ... View more

I got antsy and pulled the trigger on the 14.1 update. With non-separate spaces, the stutter is still there, but not quite as bad as os13. I can't see all frames in permiere or AE on my main monitor, but I just can't stand having separate spaces anymore.. so I found another work around. I put a decklink card in a sonnet box, and enabled mercury transmit out to a TV. this output is nice and smooth. Now, my GUI moitor is good enough to work on, and the decklink monitor is a perfectly smooth output. Never thought adding a monitor would've helped.. but throwing more money and kit at my desk has fixed me up for now. ... View more

Hello again.. just looking for an official update. Does MacOS 14.1 contain the fix? I'd like to know before I pull the trigger on the upgrade. Thanks! ... View more

I voiced my concerns with apple back in Sept. when you posted that link. It looks like the 14.1 RC dropped 3 days ago. Any idea if the fix in there, or are we stuck waiting for yet another future 14.x release? ... View more

Excellent news. Any idea what "partial" means exactly?  I'd like to know if I were to update to 14.0 and uncheck the "displays have separate spaces".. what would happen exactly? The 14.0 update is available to me now in software update, however depending on what has been partially fixed, I may just hold out for 14.1. ... View more

Any word on if this issue has been adressed in either Ventura 13.6, or in Sonoma 14.0? I'm about a month into this new system and, I'm nervous to upgrade to either one without knowing if I'll be trading one bug for another. Currently running triple monitors and with spaces separate on all displays, my workflow is a mess. I'm in the middle of a 4 month compositing contract and this computer "upgrade" has been.. shall we say, less than optimal. ... View more

Kyle, Any idea when an update for this will be realeased? I'm having the same issue, and having this setting enabled is putting a hurt on my workflow. I just bought this M2 Ultra Mac Studio, and so far I am having several huge problems, but only in After effects. Just curious when an update will be pused out. Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this. ... View more
