  • After Effects error: RAM Preview needs 2 or more frames to playback

    Posted by Joshua Chaulk on July 16, 2014 at 6:42 pm

    I have a Win 7(64-bit) OS
    16 GB RAM
    AE CC 2014

    I am animating some cartoons right now and since i downloaded the new 2014 edition on AE CC i have been getting this error when i work on a comp for a while. It pops up randomly as I’m working at least a couple times a day. The only way I’ve been able to fix it is just by restarting the program.

    Is there something I am doing to cause this or is it just a glitch?

    assuming your not on the last from of the comp, and preview isn’t set to ‘from current time’ you may want to file a bug report:

    when it happens again, you might try edit>purge>all and see if that helps before restarting ae.

    I have the same problem (After Effects CC with the latest update)… I already tried all advice but nothing has been solved. What else could I try? I’m a bit desperate
