Try searching the COW for “judder”.

When I was on Windows, I rendered to TGA, Animation, and Photo-JPEG. Many recommend PNG.

Have you posted on the Color forum to see what Color would tolerate from a Windows box?
(since Color seems to be the gatekeeper here)

Don’t think of them as reflections.
Just use a circular mask on the video layer you want to appear, apply one of the distort filters to make it bulge, and use a transfer mode (soft light?) to make it appear over the button layer.

Just make a bunch of 10-second animations, and cut 3-5 seconds of each into a reel. It takes time, but it’s the best way to do it. As you go, your tastes and abilities will improve, and you’ll find that your early work is no good. Great. You’re improving. Make more animations.
Look outside. Look at architectural illustration. Look at the Communication Arts Illustration Annual. Mess around. Throw crap together. Basically, speed up your creative process by throwing stuff together and making mistakes. Make bad stuff. Make better stuff. Eventually you’ll make good stuff.

Did you apply the external compositing tag to the null?
-
I’m sorry Shehab, I don’t understand this question.
Could you please ask again, in more detail, and tell us in which application (C4D or AE) you want to perform the action? -
In C4D, make a null, make it the parent of a cube and rotate the null. Or make a cube, rotate it, and make a the parent of a null. Apply and External Compositing tag to the null. Render in C4D and select “include 3D data”.
In AE, make the null a parent to the video layers you want to see on the cube. Position them at the same position as the null (use an expression if necessary), then move them so they line up with the sides of the cube. If, for example, your cube is 200x200x200, you should have to move each side 100 pixels away from the null in either the X,Y or Z direction.
Or you may want to apply the video to the cube in Cinema 4D before going into AE.

When that happens, I just save, close and relaunch AE. It doesn’t happen that often to me.

Have you tried the FCP COW forum?
