Looks liked they moved it.

I did a quick search on Lynda.com for “pixel aspect” and got the CS4 cour outline:

Good luck, milton

Vince,

Excellent answer. Thank you for the quick answer and link to the tutorial. This explains a lot. I would never have know to explain it as PAR. I thought I was doing something wrong.

Thanks,

Milton

Hi Dene,

You’re correct, CS4 is 64-bit enabled, or atleast that is what I read off Wikipedia:

Adobe CS4 is also developed to perform better under 64-bit and multi-core processors. Adobe Photoshop CS4, Adobe After Effects CS4, Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, and Adobe Soundbooth CS4 will officially support 64-bit.

I found that my CS3/CS4 performance increased when I upgraded to a 64 bit OS. Having full usage of your memory has its benefits. Even though Adobe products are 32 bit apps, i find that After Effects and Premiere run faster, however I cannot quantify the results I experience. I am glad I moved “up”.

I was having the exact same issue. I first saw it when I tried to open an old comp and had to point the existing DV files to a new location. I restarted my box, I tried importing the flawed comp into another and tried a new comp. The issue was not happening with Quicktime files, only AVI’s.

I did solve my problem when I uninstalled a couple of new apps, CineForm Player and a multi-format converter called Super. Regardless of the apps, I think it had something to do with how one of these apps dealt with AVI files (I suspect it was the CineForm Player). THe point is, if you’ve still got this issue, uninstall any new “video” apps you’ve installed recently and reboot.

No, that’s why it is confusing.

I have AE 6.0 Pro (Windows), I had to uninstall QT 7.0.3 and go back to 6.x. Another user had to do the same as well to get audio to preview and render.

Perhaps AE 6.5 has something 6.0 does not.

Hi,

You can tie one layer to another’s movements using Parenting and/or expressions. I use parenting to make 1 layer move synchronously with another layer (think of a credits roll synched with an image moving at the same speed and with the same relative location – if I adjust the image postiion or keyframes, the credits adjust).

For more advanced “synching” or behaviors, look into expressions, although try the parenting, it is cake compared to expressions. Hope this helps.

A couple of us have been having problems with rendering problems of audio in AE after installing Quicktime 7.03. Had to rever to 7.02 or QT 6. Preview works after killing the QT processes but does not work at all when I render (whether I had the QT processes killed or not).
