    Hi there,

    So, I’m pretty new to AE. I just started to really use it within the last couple weeks.

    I have a template that I’m working on right now. Everything seems to work fine. When I scroll the timeline I see everything I have dropped in. When I click on the layers I see each layers with what I have added.

    So, then I render my project. I’m using full res and 16:9. After about 30 min render time. I have a look at the file and it won’t play fully out. It stops on a freeze frame about two seconds in.
    When I scroll the content, I can see my whole project. I just can’t get it to play in real time.

    I have tried different render settings changed it about 4 times now and it keeps on doing the same thing 🙁

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks,
    Jen

    If you are rendering to QT for a broadcast quality playback your computer CPU isn’t fast enough to playback the video. Check out this link:
