[Vizeffects]

I got the same noticed.”contract violation” notice. There was nothing wrong with my footage. I had to rename the footage files, because they were labeled too long.

My guess is if you cant see the entire name of the footage in the project panel, then AE will have an issue recognizing what type of footage it is to preview it.

I renamed my files to something shorter and I’m back in business.

Hope that helps.
