Unless I am missing something, your response was blank.

Thank you for your offer. Although I’m not sure what you’re asking. A video screen recording showing nothing happening?

Please clarify and I will make sure to check back so it isn’t months between messages.

Thank you.

This sounds right, but if within the Preview Info Panel you disable video and preview only audio, you get an instant, quick, real- time preview. At least on mine.

I appreciate the reply.

Yes, I am aware of doing it the way you described, however as I was able to do it through ME just yesterday, it seems like it must be an easy fix or something I am overlooking.

Looking forward to seeing if anyone else has any insight.

[Daniel Siddall]

Thank you.

I did have a breakthrough yesterday as I literally scrolled frame-by-frame through the general part of the converted project identified in the error log, and found a single frame that just appeared gray. I eliminated this frame and the project rendered as it should.

The question now becomes, why does AE, upon conversion, consistently corrupt a single frame that has to be hunted down and removed?

The work continues…..

Thanks for the response. I will give it a go.

Unless I am missing something, the ability to change or choose a render engine has been removed. The renderer box is there, but it is greyed-out and clicking it produces no drop down options like it did in the past. I had looked this up and found the following:

“In recent versions of Adobe Media Encoder, the ability to directly change the render engine within the application has been removed”

I discovered it the moment after I posted the above question.

In case it helps someone else, when recording the action, instead of pressing the right arrow (or Pg Dwn) to advance to the next frame, instead hit the Next Frame button on the timeline controls (the arrow button to the right of the Play button).

[Daniel Siddall]

Thanks for your reply. I will try that.

Thanks !
