wish i had the answer for you, but i was using the save frame as photoshop layers option also which does not allow you to define an in and out segment but simply saves the current frame.

i took a quick look through the bridge and also checked to see if pshop cs4 might recognize and import an ae project but no luck. i wouldn’t be surprised if one of the folks in the forum couldn’t figure out a bridge or applescript option to automate that process though.

I’m having similar problems in AE CS4. here’s the scenario importing AE generated stills into fcp 6.04.

AE save frame as…psd file – fcp will not allow it to import
AE save frame as…tga file – fcp will not allow it to import
ae save frame as…png rgb+a – successful
ae save frame as…tif rgb & rgb+a – successful
ae save as photoshop layers – successful

while the tif, png and psd layered files work fine and the alpha channels remaing intact, i am curious as to why it won’t import the composited psd file or targa images.
