    Hello everyone,

    Im trying to export a DPX Plus sequence form After Effects. I’m having trouble doing it, because every time I try to render, AE crashes and shuts down. I don’t understand why this is happening since I already tried exporting in many different formats, even DPX Cineon works.

    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks!

    DPX doesn’t support an alpha channel, so that might be your problem.

    Thanks for your reply Conrad.

    From what I had understood, DPX Plus allows for 8, 10, 12 or 16 bit DPX files + Alpha within Ae.

    I haven’t heard of DPX Plus so you might be right. All I know is that Nuke lets you setup a DPX render with an alpha channel, but then it fails in render.

    Render in the command line. I have the same problem with AE’s GUI.

    I need to use DPXPLUS this week. I have the zip download… what procedure did you use to plant the plug-in. My plug-in folder won’t accept the file. Any other advice? I have 12 bit dpx stuff.

    If you have After Effects CC (12.0 or 12.1), you don’t need to install anything additional.
