Activity Forums Adobe After Effects Jumpy footage in AE

    Posted by David Payne on January 16, 2009 at 12:03 pm

    Hi all,
    3rd time to attempt to post this, hopefully it’ll work!

    I have animated a psd file in AE and added some green screen footage with a color key (it is m2t format)

    When i output the video the footage that has been overlayed skips and jumps almost like a skipping dvd. Just once or twice it seems to miss out half a second of footage.

    I havent got a clue what to do to fix this, I have tried duplicating the file and re importing and it did the same thing although in a different place so it is not the source footage.

    Please help!
    Thanks

    Dave, when I export to SD Avi Im obviously losing quality and it looks horrid. Using the adobe media encoder in premiere I can’t see which of the settings to use that would not cause a conflict? I read one of your posts elsewhere talking about animation full quality so I selected apple animation but thats just a 90×160 pixel output or something similar.
    What output settings would you recommend to keep quality? Preferably so I can import a 1920×1440 clip and just scale it down in AE.

    Thanks again

    it seems that HD wmv format doesnt cause any problems (yet)

    thanks a lot for your help Dave
