After Effects Roto Brush Propagating
I am attempting to use roto brush on several clips approximately 3 mins in length. After about 15 seconds worth of propagating AE erases the data, leaving me to have to start all over again. I am wondering if this is just a RAM issue, or some setting that I change to have the system perform better. I currently am using 4GB of RAM.
Thanks for your help

As far as my experience with Rotobrush goes I do not think AE erases the data, I worked on 10-15sec clips with no problems- like Dave said it may just be a RAM issue.

Here are some potentially useful resources on the Roto Brush.

Like Dave, I too haven’t had much time with Rotobrush. But it looks like an awesome helper tool. It can be a resource hog so you will want to splice your clip into 30 second segments.
Good Luck

To Paul, I experience the same problem. I roto brush 3 minutes of a music video. I’m working on a macbook pro with 4GB of ram. I upgraded to 8GB and it only improved slightly. So I decided to focus on roto brushing a few seconds at a time and that works great. So I would agree with everyone, the more ram the better (16GB+) might be the way to go.
