Hi I have a masking problem, I’m drawing and keyframing very simple masks onto .mp4 footage from a C100 and I get this error:

 

‘AGM Internal: Out of Bounds ( 83 :: 2 )’

Attempted trouble-shooting I have already tried:

 

- opened the project on a different system running same version of AE and latest OS (problem persists)

- Have rendered C100 footage out as a tiff sequence and attempted to mask that (problem persists)

- Tried rebooting (problem persists)

 

 

After Effects Version:

 

13.7.0.124 (up to date)

 

System:

 

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15 inch, Early 2013)

2.7GHz Intel Core i7

16GB 1600Mhz DDR3

NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB

In after effects CC 2018 a lof of the text is overlapping in the UI on 4K screens. It only happens in the HiDPI version of the UI, this is on a PC with Windows 10. Any suggestions on how to fix this, or is this just another new release bug?

Animation Codec no longer exports alpha channel

$

With the latest upgrade of After Effects I can no longer export an alpha channel using the animation codec. I am working with a Grass Valley K2 Summit server.

When clip is rendered RGB+Alpha is on. Premult is on. When imported to K2 both tracks appear in the properties box but fill and alpha track are black on clip load.

With an older version of AE we were able to get the import to work using the aforementioned settings. Any updated computer with AE CC 2017 will not import! Have tried other codecs (DNxHD & opa1) but  still no alpha! Since Apple is no longer supporting Quicktime is this causing an issue? Anyone else experiencing this problem?

I've made inquires at GVG as well. Hoping to solve this before baseball season starts!

Previewing fonts in AE CC 2018 disabled

I noticed that in the new version of AE CC 2018 the previewing fonts has been disabled.  I can no longer highlight the text and scroll up or down to see the different fonts.  The font style in the character palette is not helpful at all.  Plus this kills my time when trying to find a certain font.  Has anyone figured this out yet?

I'm taken over a project from a previous employee and when I open a file in C4D Lite I have the following error message:

 

 

'Several plugins used in this project are missing.

Saving may cause loss of plugin data!

Plugin 'mpnode' (ID 1028267)

I've tried looking for these plugins online to no avail. Can anyone help?


Encoded after effects files are very large

$

Heyo fellow design nerds,

I work at a sign company and we are working on some digital menu boards. I've made them using after effects. Each video is roughly two minutes long. They are saving at around 300-400,000KB when I save in H.26 format using Media Encoder. I've been able to get most of them down to 90-100,000KB when I use 720pi, but it doesn't always work and I have to reincode those files, so I end up doubling or tripling the time it should take to output these videos. I need to upload these videos onto Xhibit, and Xhibit can't handle super large files. Is there an easy way to ensure my files will be small enough to uplad to the Xhibit serves (90-100,000KB)?

Dripping animation question

I have the composition below, with the drops from the pump dripping just how I'd like them. I need the grid (made up of 5 different strokes) to fill in from the point where the drops are hitting it. I tried trim paths, but I need them to go in two directions and trim paths doesn't seem to be able to do that.

Selecting tools changes active comp

Afternoon everyone.

 

I have been having this problem with after effects that started off randomly but has now become consistent.  When I have multiple comps open if I select the selection tool, it will change to what ever comp that was up when I opened the project.  I have all my windows unlocked and I notice it doesn't happen when I use the default window setup.  Is it a problem with the floating windows?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi. I just update to CC 2018 and want to try the VR functions in AE but i just find that is not so easy or not work as well like in the sneak peaks that i see before (Jason Lavigne live etc). I import my equirectangular footage and click in the VR comp editor the Add 2D or Add 3D edit (like in the sneak peaks) and create some composition but i can´t see the "sphere" world when you can rotate. Also in the comp where the footage have applied the pluging VR Convert the screen showme a red message that say tha this effects requieres GPU acceleration. Anybody knows something?

Best regards.

 

Update: the problems happens in my PC Workstation. In my iMac seems to works fine. Something related with the CUDA, GPU or anything? My Graphic card is  an Nvidio GTX1080 and had the latest drivers.

I have a few white fill layers in my composition, but it doesn't seem that these are being rendered out, or they're being rendered out as transparent.  Please help, thanks!

How to do this text animation?

Horizontally Stretched Quicktime output... ? What am I doing wrong?

$

I am having the worse time ever with AE right now. So in the past I have made titles and other motion graphics animations and had no problem with the final render. I recently picked up a couple of projects and designed them with no problems and it even renders smoothly however; the final product when viewed is stretched horizontally every time. I have changed formats upwards of 40+ times in the sequence and in the rendering output the results are the same a horizontally stretched Quicktime file. Please help and Thank You in advance.

How can I access motion path interpolation with expression?

$

Dear all

 

I have created a motion path with expression (Star 2), as you see in the picture there are no keyframes at the start and end, they are introduced by two point controls.

I made the same motion path by use of keyframes (Star 1). Here handles are available to interpolate the path.

 

How can I get the same interpolation, or any adjustable interpolation for path number 2 using expressions? 

 

Thank you. Screenshot_1.jpg
