[BUMP]

I’m experiencing this problem every day with 4000×3000 pixel size videos, and have tried many things to fix it.

Sometimes closing all programs after a reboot and running it will work. Sometimes I have to shrink down the composition by 30% but for the most part I have not found a solution to fix the SWFs crashing after effects.

I’m looking more into it now and will edit the post with any updates I discover.

I’ve exported the After effects project into Premiere and it’s playing back in the timeline better than it was in After Effects, it’s much easier to work in this timeline than in a motion graphics timeline, but still having some problems, as I would suspect in outputting a project to another software.

I have to readjust all the sizes now, and some of the effects are not populating in Premiere, playback is wonky.

For now I may just stick to finishing the project in after effects but thanks for the help and tips!

I know XML contains the editor’s decision and references the source footage, the problem is the after effects project is a mixture or .AVIs, animations, H264 and my Final Cut doesn’t have a codec to Open AVIs. I was really hoping to output them all as the same codec so I can set my timeline to match the footage.

I’m on a PC with CS5 but it’s the web version without Premiere. Even if I had it, I’m not sure that would help me because I’m editing in Final Cut on a mac.

For now, I’m going to try the Premiere trial and see if I can output to .movs and get back to you, thanks!

Thanks for the tip, I don’t have trapcode at work, anyone have a free out-of-the-box solution without downloading stuff to my work computer?

Hey Mark, thanks for all the help with motion.

Any suggestions on how I would achieve this “Video Wall”/”TV WALL” effect in After Effects? I’ve tried the tiler, the griddler, CC tile, but haven’t been able to figure out how to stagger the screens so they all play a different portion of the video clip while. Is there a script to use for this? Would you use a particle generator??

THANKS!
