  • Manually install codecs?

    Posted by Sagar Sangani on July 13, 2010 at 10:41 pm

    So I installed the trial version of AE CS5 and apparently MPEG rendering is not offered in trial version. So I was wondering if there a way to install these codecs manually since I have a project that needs to be rushed?

    MPEG rendering does work, however, it takes extremely long to render and I found the trial version was a problem. Do you think simply downloading an MPEG codec and installing it on the system would work?

    Thanks,
    Sagar.

    Thanks, Dave.

    Maybe I should have been a little clear about my project. You see, I am trying to render an animated motion menu which is in AE. All the other videos that I edit in Premiere Pro are exported with Media Encoder.

    The reason why I select MPEG is because all the HDV files are in mpeg format and I think it would be better to be consistent throughout the project. I’ve exported in AVI better using Media Encoder and it has been very quick on CS5 64bit Win7.

    I am have previously tried to render in MOV and it has taken a significant amount of time.

    Wow, really? Thanks for the info.

    I’ll stick to QuickTime format.
