  • Transparancy keyframes not rendered in RAM preview (AE CC 2014.2)

    Posted by Stef Prein on April 16, 2015 at 1:09 pm

    Hi!

    I’ve been using After Effects CC (2014.2) for a couple of days now. For some reason it doesn’t want to render a RAM preview of a transparency animation. It ignores the change in transparency completely. What could cause this issue?

    Cheers,

    Stef

    P.S.- Or is my 2008 Mac Pro getting too old for this sh*t? 😉

    I’m currently using AE CC 13.2.0.49 on Mac OSX 10.10.2.

    But strangely enough it started working again just now… I restarted the machine and that seems to have solved to problem. Any idea what could have happened? So we can close this topic as being solved for similar questions.

    Thanks!

    Stef

    the issue could be linked to other processes that are running at the same time. When more applications are opened, AE seems to have trouble rendering transparency changes for RAM previews. Interesting…

    The problem is not quite solved yet, but my conclusion for now would be: give AE as much room to breath as possible.

    And yes, working with compressed video is never a good idea.

    Thanks for your help and insights, Dave!
