    I have a great track in Mocha AE, and I’m using Mocha Import to paste the tracking data in AE. Corner pin data is off in AE. It’s perfect in Mocha so not quite sure why it’s not lining up in AE. Here are some screen shots for reference.

    Use this. It will allow you to adjust the image along the plane of the track, so you can tweak the position and size to match more accurately.

    this should work. check that you are copying at the first frame of the video, check the frame rates. other than that we need more information but the best thing is if you can upload a few seconds of the footage so we test it and hopefully show you a step by step.

    Hi Clarke,

    It’s best to check the following:
    1) If you have a mocha version older than V4, check to make sure you haven’t got the anchor keys still pasted to the transform data.
    2) Make sure your frame rate in mocha and AE match
    3) Make sure your Pixel Aspect Ratio in mocha and AE match
    4) Make sure you have pasted to the start of the timeline

    Also, if your insert layer is not the same size as the composition, search for “Applying Corner Pin for Layers with different dimensions” in the mocha User Guide, as there are different workflows for dealing with that.

    Although i’m surprised that you would be getting trouble if you’re using mochaImport+ as it normally covers all these contingencies.
