Take a look at the PSD file I provided (link in previous post of this thread). I use the Channel Mixer filter: Set the Red to 100% and Blue and Green to 0% for the Red channel, Blue to 100% and Red and Green to 0% for the Green, etc…..
In the example I provided I used adjustment layers. You could actually resize that comp to the size you are using and replace the image in each folder with your own image, then move them to your own delight.

I’ve never seen that exact error, but the general procedure:
1. Reboot the app (you can’t do this, as it won’t boot in the first place)
2. Reboot the computer
3. Trash the app’s preferences
4. Reinstall the appBen Unguren

Separate the Red, Green, and Blue channels, set them all to Add mode (with a black plate underneath them). Then move around each of the three images to your heart’s content! In the example you posted, the Red channel is the only one that’s being shifted — down and to the right. Green+Blue makes Cyan in additive-color land, and the red, by itself, makes the red part:
Remember that black is absence of color. So the lightness of her cheek goes red in the down-and-right direction, while darkness of her hair goes cyan in the down-and-right direction.
You can get my PS file that made the above sample here.

The PSD file will save itself in whatever color depth you’re working in. So if you set it to 32-bit, then you’ll get a 32-bit file….
I’ve done a fair amount of back-and-forth between PSD and AE with 32-bit imagery without any issues.Ben Unguren

another possibility is that you exported a quicktime reference movie instead of a self-contained quicktime movie. Usually you can tell it is a reference movie becuase the filesize is much smaller than you’d normally expect a file of that format and duration to be. Open the QT movie in QT7, “Save as…” and make sure the movie is “Self Contained”, then give it a try….
(and/or transcode as Walter suggested)

command-click (ctrl-click on PC) the numbers in the upper-left-hand corner of the timeline window. That will switch between timecode (00:00:00;00), frame numbers (0000000), and other useful time-display options. Whatever you choose in the timeline will be reflected in all other windows and plugins.

The “Duration” preference is for a single image (a still image, i.e.). It simply tells AE what the default duration of that still image should be. When you import a series of images as a sequence each image lasts one frame. Thus, for image sequences, all that matters is the frame rate, which determines how long the image sequence lasts — the duration preference has no effect.

Two possibilities occur to my mind:
1. Automatic Duck can translate an Avid timeline into AE: https://automaticduck.com/products/piae/
2. Export an AAF out of Avid, import that into Premiere (if you have Premiere), at which point the Premiere–>AE jump is fast.#2 is unstable (in my experience). So make sure you give it a test run first!
Both of these help with the Avid to AE part. For AE to Avid, I think you have to render, plain an simple….Ben Unguren

Select your footage in the project window, right click, choose “Interpret Footage–>Main…” (hotkey cmd+opt+G) then change your alpha type and see if it fixes it.

Sounds like you need to change the alpha type from straight to premultiplied, or vice versa….
