Failing to replace Image footage in apex file

I was trying to automating the rendering process by operating aepx file and then render with aerender.

 

It worked fine sometimes that I replace footages by setting the "fullpath" property of <fileReference> node in aepx file.

 

However, I found the approach does not work if I replace the original image with another one that is not in the same folder.

 

Anyone could help with experience on operating aepx file?

 

BTW: Same problem is already encountered before, as mentioned in :

Thanks a lot.

GH5 10-bit files don't work in AE and ME after Creators Update

$

I used After Effects and Media Encoder to import Panasonic GH5 10-bit 4:2:2 4K files to export them as DNxHR 1HQX 10-bit 4:2:2 4K so I could use them on any progfram and play them back fine. This worked fine until the update. Now I only get a black screen with no audio or video and they don't work in either. These were the only programs I had that could actually play them back so I could edit them. I need to edit them soon as, so may just rollback to the previous version which worked.

Help Me!

Load morgt into AE

Hi

 

I like the new essential graphics workflow between AE an Pr. I can create a lower third once and the control the text etc. without having to create actual copies.

 

But is there a way to do the same in AE? If I want to use the lower third across my AE project, and just adjust the text parameter. Can I do that without duplicating the lower third comp for every instance?

 

Thanks,

Jakob

Recreating vector morph into circle shape

Hi Guys

 

I'm trying to recreate this intro screen. I have the Illustrator files and have separated the layers out in AE, converting them to shapes. I'm having the issue of morphing it into a perfect circle with a shape layer, instead of having to use the bezier curve tool to manually create it. Is the a way I can copy a circle shape layer into position and it morph automatically?

 

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks alot

Buenas, después de haber leído bastante por internet y foros y ninguna me ha servido he decidido abrir el hilo (ya he leído posts como este: https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/kb/startup-screen-hangs-premiere-after.html ). He iniciado la versión de prueba de After Effects y me ha salido este error. Decidme, por favor, toda la información que tengo que aportar para que me podáis ayudar porque yo soy muy iniciado en esto. Os avanzo que yo ya tenía el CS6 y nunca me ha salido este error. He instalado y desinstado varias veces y por diferentes fuentes, esta captura no sé si es de la última versión pero ninguna me ha funcionado. Muchas gracias y os leo.

Team Project - special needs

Hey together!

 

I will start with my question directly: We like to share comps with the whole team, which could be previewed and imported directly in the current AE-project. As a kind of comp-library with a preview function. We hoped the new feature "Team-Projects" for AE will help out, but its not possible to import or preview comps from the cloud to a project, which is not in the cloud. We tried other possibilities, like the media browser or the cloud libraries, but nothing worked for us. Now the question: Is there any tool/addon out there which have these functions?

 

Thanks for your help!

All the best,

Micha


Microsoft Surface Book Pro and After Effects stylus bug

I've had this bug for the better part of a year and I'm totally up to date on all my drivers. I'm using a Surface Book Pro with Performance Base. Basically, After Effects registers my first tap with the stylus and ignores everything after that until I move the touchpad.

 

Microsoft Surface Book Pro and After Effects stylus bug - YouTube

 

I've had this issue with every version of After Effects I've installed going back to 2014. I've cleared my preferences, installed the Wintab drivers, and installed the Surface Book Platform drivers. Anyone else had this issue? Anyone else fixed it?

Animation - Changing the shape

Hello,

 

I'm trying to reproduce the same effect used in a video but I tried several tutorials and until now I wasn't able to find the correct way to do it. Could some one please suggest mea tutorial where I could learn how to do it?

 

The link for the video is: Coldwater Machine SpotMeld Refill Friction Stir Spot Welding - Aluminum Sheet to Aluminum Sheet - YouTube

 

The effect that I want to reproduce starts at 0:25 and it is the red effect. What I want to do is this change in the shape along the time.

 

Thanks in advance.

After Effect's crashing on launch.

Hi ! Hello !

 

 

I'm having an issue with AE, after the splash screen on start, the app crashes even before I can open any project.

  • I have all my drivers updated
  • If I delete the After Effects folder's content on Roaming. It works but just for one time. So it's annoying to lose all my preferences every time I need to work.
  • Maybe it's due to a plugin because the errors has occurred when I installed a bunch of them, but when I remove it with ZXPInstaller, nothing happens

 

 

Here is the log : Smash  (file was too big, so I put it here, sorry)

Can't fetch cmaps (83::2) > Unknown BIB Error...CT, 0 (83::3) After Effects Dead.

First it gave me an error before this that simply said, "Can't fetch cmaps (83::2)"

 

Then this:

afxfailure.JPG

And it wont start at all. uninstalling, reinstalling. nada. I was wondering if maybe it was related to the windows 10 creator update, but then After Effects WORKED after the update and then before this error. And now it doesn't. Boo.

 

Seriously, my machine is my bread and butter I need it to work. HELP!!

 

Ok what info do you need... You know my computer has been running After Effects just fine before this so computer specs not needed (unless you want them). Maybe the nature of the project? Just like any project. Designs, vector files, raster files, fonts, specific font installs, animation, effects, blah blah. VFX.

 

OH one thing that was really strange that happened, I was trying to open up a PSD with a font I'd installed from the internet (Playfair Display in fact) and it wouldn't open. I recreated the file and tried to use the font and it would give me an error. Then I noticed that font wasn't the only font to give me an error, but it wasn't ALL the fonts. It was a random assortment of fonts that gave an error. THEN I restarted my machine, and it opened and worked just fine as if nothing was wrong. WTF is going on here folks?

 

As a precaution I'm rolling back the WIN 10 creators update to see if it helps. Will let you know.

How to make object appear to float

Create new 3D layer to match existing camera

$

0

Hey guys! This might be a bit of a silly question, but is there a way to automatically match a new 3D layer's position to your existing camera? I have kinetic typograpy comps all the time that involve a camera moving around from word to word. All of these word layers have to be 3D layers of course in order to be affected by the camera when it moves past them. However, every time I create a new text layer and then make it 3D, that layer pops way back to an origin point (at least that's what I assume is the reason it moves so far away), and then I have to go and drag that text layer all the way back into frame in order to show on camera in the camera's current position.

 

My question basically is over whether there's a way to automatically take a new 3D layer and match position with the current active camera? It's not a huge deal, but it is an inconvenience, and I would love to know if there is some easy fix for it that I just don't know about.

 

Thank you!!

Rendering with Dynamically Linked Compositions- a LOT of them

Hello, I have a project in Premiere pro with 150ish linked compositions.. I know. I am curious if there are any suggestions aside from "render and replace" I can use to speed up the rendering process, because as of now, I am sitting at a 45 hour render time.

 

 

 

I am running the newest version of Premiere pro cc on windows 7. (excluding today's update)
processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790k CPU @ 4.00GHz

Ram: 16gb

64 bit op system

graphics card: a p.o.s raedon R7 200 series with a 2016 driver

using mercury software

Also using ridiculously high Bitrate

 

Please let me know of any additional information I could provide that might helpinfo.png

e1: Time drastically improved following one of the information heavier shots, although I'm still at 27 hours remaining, which tends to idle instead of decreaseclosingin.png

 

e2: Blue screen of death at 20 hours in, rinsing and repeating

 

 

 

 

I've spent an absurd amount of time and energy working to make this.. needless to say, this project means a lot to me. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions!


Motion Graphics Templates and no font selection

Why in the world would Adobe not allow a font change in Adobe Premiere when using a Motion graphics Template? Even some of the samples provided include font selection, size and alignment features.

 

When will you update this Adobe?

Translating keyframes from a null to the parented object?

I have a camera parented to a animated null, and I'd like to be able to get rid of the null and have the movement translated into position and rotation keyframes on the actual camera. Is this possible?  The reason I want to do this is I'm having trouble getting the camera animation to export to C4D when it's parented to a null, but seems to work well when the keyframes are on the camera.  Thank you for your help!

Hello Adobe Community,

          Recently I have been wanting to create an HD intro/animation for myself and some friends. I want to take a logo, so you can barely see and outline of it as if the lights were of and I want it to spark a few times with different colored sparks, then to light up dramatically and fill the screen with light. I want it to almost look read and 3D and I am not looking for a flat look to it. I am very new to After Effects and don't know where to start. Some useful tips and advice would be helpful and any clarification you need I will gladly reply too. Hopefully some of you guys can help me tackle this!

Hi:

 

I just got an error that displays and doesn't want to go away even after I click the only OK button in the dialog box.

 

The error as cryptic as this is, is:

 

"After Effects error : unbalanced unlock. ( 7 :: 40 )

 

Does anybody know how to get rid of this and why did it show up in the first place?

 

Using Mac OSX El Capitan with the latest AECC2015 update (13.6.1.6)

 

Thanks.
