Thanks mate, I was having the exact same problem with most of the quicktimes I make with After Effects. Spent an entire night last week trying to figure this out. Good to have the solution!

Exactly the kind of fix I was looking for! I was just now trying to put a threshold on the particular layer’s alpha, and then choking that matte, but this had the side-effect of blending the particles together where they touch eachother.
I tried your approach, and it doesn’t get rid of all the transparent particles, but it does bring it down to about 1-2%.Good enough for now.
Thanks! -
Hi Warner,
Don’t have a real solition to your problem, but I always render hard shots to an image sequence. You can make a .mov of those later. Less chance of losing frames that are already rendered, and sometimes hard-to-render frames suddenly DO render when you render them individually.
Hope this helps,

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for thinking along but nope, I just checked and there’s not even a camera in the scene (I created one but this didn’t help either).
Then I thought it must’ve been the visibility settings but those were all fine as well. Far Vanish and Fade settings are set at 100.000 and Near settings at 1 and 0.Any other thoughts?

Sorry for the long pause, but I’ve been incredibly busy (like most of you I guess).
The thing is.. it stopped! Somehow, it went from an annoyance that was there every time I started up After Effects (not just when I had a lot of programs open or when I was working on a particularly heavy project), to not being there at all.
I only realised it after a while, so I don’t remember doing anything special to make it stop, unfortunately. But I’m sure I didn’t uninstall any programs or plugins.
Well, let’s hope it doesn’t come back.Thanks for trying to help, guys!

Hi Dave, thanks you very much for your reply but no, unfortunately this happens even with just a brand new empty project…
