  • Question regarding playback of video and sound in after effects 6.5 pro.

    Posted by Pierre on August 4, 2005 at 4:14 am

    Newbie Questions:

    1. Why can’t I hear my audio in after effects?
    2. Why doesn’t my video playback in realtime when I’m viewing it within the timeline (this is before I even apply effects).

    Thank you in advance.

    You can get an audio only preview by pressing the period (.) key on the keypad.
    You can get a RAM preview with audio by pressing the asterix key (*) on the keypad.
    Pressing the spacebar will not give you audio playback and will not give you a realtime preview.
    If you aren’t getting realtime playback by doing a RAM preview I suggest you decrease the scale and resolution of the comp window for starters.
