Activity Forums Adobe After Effects transport error 17:18

  • transport error 17:18

    Posted by Jonathan Grant on October 1, 2008 at 6:52 pm

    I have a 93 minute movie I’m trying to put into after effects. It’s an avi file uncompressed from premiere pro cs3 and it plays fine outside of after effects.

    But when I import it into after effects and try to go past the first 24 minutes or so it brings up an error message saying something like “transport error 17:18” or something like that.

    Any idea what might be causing that? I need this done quickly and don’t have much time! BTW, I’m using after effects 6.5 (don’t have money or time to upgrade).

    Thanks for your help. Unfortunately that isn’t the situation. I’m on PC and haven’t changed anything and am using avi instead of QT.

    Why on earth would there be a 2gig file limit in after effects???

    there would be if you had a FAT32 hard drive.

    Nope, it’s not Fat32. Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to hold the 132 gig avi file on there. Like I said, the avi file plays fine outside of after effects.
