  • AfterEffect CS3, preset browser preview not animated

    Posted by Reko Tomo on October 18, 2007 at 8:55 am

    friends,

    I installed CS3 in my rig,
    E4400
    RAM 2 gig
    Mobo Gigabyte p35 ds3 rev1.0
    GPU Pixelview Gforce 8500
    but the preset browser preview not animated,
    for example if I click one of the background preset,
    it just show an icon “gif” of my ACDsee icon.

    I can’t find any option
    to enable the animation.

    Can anyone please help me
    on how to make work the animation preview ?

    Anykind of respond will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you in advanced.

    regards

    I mean it’s only the extension of ffx file
    that can not be previewed.
    such as blocks.ffx, circuit.ffx

    but other animation file
    such gif, avi, mpeg is able to be previewed.

    I’m sure that the *.ffx must be able
    to be previewed, because somewhere
    in the computer shop, I saw the *.ffx preview.

    Anyone please can help me ?
    thank you in advanced.

    Hi Dave,

    Thank you very much for your reply.
    No, as before I saw somewhere in computer shop.

    Now I’m 100% it’s the .ffx file
    such as for background, transition, etc
    are animated in the preview pane.
    Because my friend have his own AE cs3,
    and the animation it’s there.

    As you think that I saw it’s the
    text animation gallery from the AE help,
    no it’s not, because AE cs3
    don’t even include the text animation gallery
    like it did before in AE 6.5

    Anyway, many thanks for your reply.
    I really appreciate it.

    Still wishing, if any one can help me though..:-)

    regards,
    reko

    reko, I went mad looking for this feature, what are they thinking?? I copied the 6.5 help menu out of the package contents (mac) and have it in a readily accessible place. Fritz
