HELP!!! Error:Unable to allocate space for image buffer… What?

Posted by Jeremy Grubaugh on November 3, 2007 at 7:45 am

I am getting this error when I try to render
“After Effects error: Unable to allocate space for a 15076 x 23575 image buffer. you may be experiencing fragmentation. In the Memory & Cache pref dialog box, try decreasing the Max RAM Cache size value and selecting he Enable Disc Cache option, increasinh max memor usage or both” What does this mean. i tried what it said and am still getting the error. Has anyone seen this., I am running a BRAND NEW quad core mac. Fastest one they sell with 4 gigs of Ram. What’s up?

I had the same problem, check out Aharon’s tutorial on AE’s
secret preferences. So far it has worked great.

There is a super long and VERY useful thread on this started by Graham Jones. Just do a search. This is probably the most posted question there is for AE7 users.
