August 10, 2010 at 8:43 pm in reply to: AE CS 5 Cant open/export QuickTime (Win 7 – 64bit)Hi Todd,
Has Adobe come up with a proper solution to this issue? I can’t start CS5 in my user account, but when I create a new user I have no problem starting CS5.

That didn’t work.

Have you checked if there are updates for your display driver? You mentioned OPEN GL… have you tried turning it off in AE, restart AE, and then open Liquid?

I many cases I get source footage from client in movie file format. I don’t hassle them to convert it to image sequence but I request original source footage with in/out timecode ON DATADVD or I bring my external drive to them and get the files personally.
I then convert to tif sequence the scenes that require more effect work… it all depends on the job at hand.

Are these stills images? If so, why not just make poster prints of each and do it live-action, and then comp that shot back into your project… with a bit of colour correction and alignment you might get a better result, cheaper and faster!

I agree with Chris. I actually meant to say TIFF format… was a long day yesterday. I always render to that format for all final HD sequences when delivering to a post facility.
I stopped using movie file formats in AE and will always convert these sources to tif uncompressed sequences when dealing with any effect work. Since these shots are usually short, it is not a big deal. Plus, when working on these files each frame loads quicker.
And since AE is not really for long-form editing…

Why not render to targa sequence and pull that into AE? Much more reliable than rendering to an HD movie file… and faster rendering since you are only dealing with each frame in mem instead of the whole movie when working on it in AE.

What is the resolution of the image. I have seen sometimes that a large image with a dpi of 1200 can mess things up, even though AE is resolution independant. Pull into photoshop and make sure the image is sample to 96dpi. If it is already, then maybe list what you have going on in the comps… any particles or zaxwerks? Any illustrator files?

By the time you spend looking for an answer you could have just done it the old fashion way… keyframe it!!!
