    Hi guys,

    I came across weird glitch in ae. My picture gets dissected in a mysterious way.

    This picture shows the frame of my animation when in 1920×1080 and below when I upscale the composition to 3480×2160. Fitting to comp size doesn’t help.
    I also get en error like that when working with video footage. It’s kind of random although it makes me think it might have something to do with a graphic card but I have never had a problem like that before.

    Have any of you came across anything like that?

    I’m working on PC, up to date Adobe CC, my graphic card is AMD FirePro V7900 (Fire GL V).

    Best,
    Kuba

    I have seen glitches like this and the culprit was usually the GPU. see if your graphic driver is updated. if it is, try to roll back a version

    Thanks for your reply. I don’t think it’s that actually as I had the same problems with earlier version of the driver

    You have two solutions.

    1. Turn your composition panel from full resolution to Auto

    2. Turn off the “Use hardware to accelerate…panels” in the preferences.
