Hi,
Well my thing got out of sync like 15 seconds into it, wherever I started the playback… Rebooting wouldn’t help.
Fortunately enough, the director saw in the end, that it was not needed for him to hear the audio simultaneously.
Thanks nonetheless!

Actually just looking further into it and realized that the video is actually playing MUCH MUCH faster! It gets schizo on it, bursting faster in moments… The movie has been playing for 10 minutes now and the image is like 5-6 minutes later.
And if I remember well it also did that in the past with NTSC projects…

Oops, double posted… Please answer in the other one. Don’t know how to delete this extra one… Sorry!

Firmware didn’t do anything.
BUT I had an idea to take my hard drive and try it out on my previous computer with very little things installed.
The project opened correctly, but was missing lots of effects from plug-ins. So, I installed them back onto this machine one by one. To realize that all my trapcode plug-ins were making AE7 crash on this project. YET, I had previously upgraded them from the website. PLUS a new bug occured, I had to remove Eye Candy too as it cannot load the project either… And I mean, Eye Candy is an age old plug-in that has work on just about anything since 1999, and which I never had a problem with until this day.
So now, all of what was working before just started going down gradually up until this point where not only those Trapcode are not working, but Eye Candy too ( I only had the “glow” effects in this one (well, on lots of different layers, still, it shouldn’t change anyhting).
I even tried downgrading back to my old version, but NOW there’s a new error message:
“3D stroke” has global outflags2 and PIPL flags are 7.
Thank god this is SO understandable… I did found one post with the same error message, but unfortunately no additional info on how to correct it. Thread can be found here: https://forums.creativecow.net/cgi-bin/new_read_post.cgi?forumid=2&postid=855955
—>Then decided to still, reinstall the newest 3D stroke, and open a new project to try it out. And guess what… It worked.
So a deduction at this point is that the Trapcode plug-ins and Eye Candy plug-ins have decided “slowly” to crash it out because they don’t like “something” in my project… Could be a combination of plug-ins together, but how am I supposed to know which???? I got a bunch of them and they all were working fine before! Plus they are all used in so many comps…
The worst is that they are used in a very traditional fashion, i.e. without crazy expressions and whatnot.
It’s been a full 3 days trying to get out of this nightmare… Any insight ANYONE???

Ok. I managed to redo my “trick” by opening an older unrelated project, close it, then came back to my current one.
So it opens and can work on it. But I got a crash again by stopping a preview with my spacebar.
PLUS NOW, an addtional CRASH major annoyance : As I frequently save to avoid other crashing surprise, I just got slapped in the face with the obvious: 1 times out of 3-4, AE7 crashes on me while it tries to SAVE! And then the project is no longer openable.
I have never had such impossibly ridiculous problems with any programs in the 10 years I’ve been playing with computers. So at this point, I’ll try and hope I can finish this project somehow, but believe me, I AM DEFINITELY GOING BACK TO AE 6.5 after. No chance in hell that I’m gonna touch this thing until the next .5 upgrade. Unless SOMEBODY tells me I’m completely in the wrong and have a good pile of arguments!
Next try now is to upgrade nvidia firmware from 81.89 to 84.21 for my graphic card EN7800 GTX

Humm… I’m actually using the Echospace in my aep… But I’ve seen it crash even if I’m not on a segment that has the effect (yet the effect is some time earlier in the sequence). –Could still make sense.
Thanks for the info!

I was personnally told by a redgiant salesrep that it was hopefully coming soon.
I need it too!

Good idea, but I forgot to mention that I had tried that as well… Renaming, deleting the french one, but no luck…
