  RAM Preview – how to save the proper way?

  Posted by Marc Nibor on May 20, 2011 at 5:21 pm

  Hi,
  i regularly need to render portions of my movie for a fast compare with embedded sounds.

  right now i mostly make a ram preview – which i’d like to keep.

  if i go to > save ram preview, it asks me to provide a file name and then starts to render the preview all over again – from what i know it’s not supposed to do that.

  i just want to save the already cached frames. not render it again.

  does anyone know what i might do wrong here?

  When you save the RAM preview AE does take some steps to save the frames rendered- it is normal.
