  AE Ram preview is not the same as when I render

  Posted by Wynn Winberg on June 5, 2009 at 4:42 am

  Using CS4, doing HD. I’m noticing that the timing when I do RAM preview is not that same as my final rendered MOV. Anyone else run across this, and is there a fix? Using ProRes clips and large JPEGS, so I can see why it would be sluggish – but once rendered in RAM, I would think the audio would stay in sync with the picture in the same way as the final file.

  Thx

  “Try this trick: reduce the comp window’s size to 50% (you’ll find the adjustment at the bottom of the comp window), and reduce the comp’s resolution to Half (again, it’s at the bottom of the window). Then try a RAM Preview and see what happens.”

  Yep, tried all that, plus fiddling with memory settings, closing all other apps., etc. I’m using a MacPro, so I have as much suds as are available computer-wise.

  So when doing HD, you render out clips to see what you have?
