After effects CC output Modules to render only Machines

Hi there, I have a problem with the custom output Module Templates and my cluster:

After Effects CC 12.0.0.404 (also showing up-to-date cloud Creative)

Mac OS X 10.8.4 (Mountain Lion last version)

Mac Pro 2.93 GHz, Radeon 5870 8-Core, 32 GB RAM and with Blackmagic Decklink Extreme 3D +.

Remote Machines (there are four) are Mac Pros (Quad-core, running 10.7.2 with 16 GB of RAM), by using the ae_render_only_node.txt file in their folder of user Documents.

The exact error:

aerender ERROR: no output to the name module model were found.

I try to get a cluster working with After Effects CC (see exact version above). Unfortunately, I need custom output modules, and I can't seem to get the slaves made to recognize. I found older sons on this particular issue, but no solution has been found.

I use commandline aerender in OS X terminal to start a render with a basic test scene.

To simplify things, I tried to test this on a single machine, rendering both slave... Same result everywhere.

Here is what I tried:

I have exported a file of .aom of my main machine (where I have my desired custom output Modules) and attempted to bring on the slaves of rendering. However, because the slaves of rendering are return only, (they ae_render_only_node.txt in their Documents folder), the ability to import Modules output is disabled in After Effects (it opens as the rendering engine of the effects after and modify > Templates menu is grayed out).

Then, I thought I would try to copy the main machine (user) /Users/ / Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/12.0 folder to render slaves, thinking that would get any other file in preference to them to define the output modules. No luck. Launched After Effects (which loads as renderer after effects) and reset my preferences to disk cache (so they were not always of the main machine). Tried again aerender... no luck. Same error:

aerender ERROR: no output to the name module model were found.

After that, I thought it would be a good idea to log out of Adobe Creative cloud on the main machine and try connecting the machine slave made with my UserID and password and temporarily remove the ae_render_only_node.txt file. Then I would import the .aom file in the full version of the AE... I tried this and success! The work of renders... they find the output without problem Modules. Only it is, as soon as I log out and switch between using the ae_render_only_node.txt file, the output Modules are not found. Don't know what's going on--if the output Modules are currently disabled by the ae_render_only_node.txt file? Or maybe signature out of my Adobe ID is to remove preferences that determine the output Modules? Don't know where the output Module preferences are stored to be able to tell.

Next attempt: I thought that I would try my preferences with creative cloud sync. I made sure to check synchronization preferences after effects to ensure that the output Modules are configured to synchronize. I did a sync where I transferred my preferences of the main machine. Then, on the slaves of rendering, I ran synchronization preferences and chose to download preferences. Works when connected, but not when it is used as a single render node. When it comes to a single node returned, he even invites me to download synchronization preferences and exit the Application, which I do, but nothing seems to happen. I retry aerender and still the same error:

aerender ERROR: no output to the name module model were found.

I can't seem to find any info on where the output Modules are actually stored (apparently they are not anywhere in the user/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects / folder?). Visited only nodes not allowed to have custom output Modules? Not even for something as simple as the multi-machine with an action sequence post-render set enabled Proxy?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Today, we released update after effects CC (12.1), which fixes this bug.

Let us know how things work out for you in the updated version.

  • Saving files from After Effects to CC for use on other machines.

    I am very very new to After Effects, so I'm sure there is a simple solution to my question.  I recently attempted to save a file from After Effects on Dropbox to transfer easily to another machine, however when I went to open this file on the new machine, several documents in the file, it was missing (png, fonts, scripts etc...).  I suspected that the reason for it is because the png and the fonts were used by AE as they were stored on the original machines and have not actually imported (or copied) in the AE file, so when I went to open the file on the computer again the files were missing that they were not installed on the new machine (is this correct?).  If I record the creative cloud AE files will be I experience this problem? I'll be able to open the AE files on another computer that does not have fonts reference, PNG, jpeg etc. available?

    Thank you

    Yes, AE projects contain only references to external resources. That's why you should pack in full e.g. usind the option collect files. The procedures do not differ to any method that you use, so you better get used to and organize your work in a way so it can be transferred easily.

  • Can I run time after effects CC & CC 2014 on the same machine?

    I've recently updated AfterEffects CC-AE CC 2014. I use Cinema4D lite extensively, but I am unable to use the new Cinema4Dlite R16 with AE CC 2014. My question is:

    I'd be able to run both versions of AE and Cineware on the same machine?

    And if yes, why I can't use C4Dlite in CC 2014? (C4D lite is open, but I'm unable to select one of the buttons or anything in the menus).

    I recently worked with a client who was running CS6, and I found that to make a compatible with CS6 AE CC 2014 file, I needed to export from 2014, then export again CC, hence the need to run both.

    I really appreciate help or solutions that anyone can offer to this.

  • After Effects CC (CS7)

    Any attempt to render - this new incarnation after effects is no longer offers h.264 and h.264 Blu Ray... Is - is this expected?

    h.264 - output mp4 is the one we always used more - and now completely gone...?

    Looking for it - I found a container of h.264 under f4v output settings which I never used. To pass a h.264 - should I go?

    However, if you want really to encoding h.264 directly from AE (which is not recommended), you can choose to save it as CC CC 2014 and open your project in the old version and it has to do.

  • After effects (trial) does not (info inside)

    Hey,.

    I installed After Effects a few days ago (30 days trial), but I can't open.

    Today, it was an update in the cloud, so I thought it could solve my problem, but it didn't.

    He always says "AfterFX.exe fails to start properly (0xc000001d error Code)" (mine is in German so it's just a rough translation)

    The pleasure is in fact, that After Effects (I got it a while ago) (also in first instance) worked perfectly before I reinstalled my Windows 7, which makes me think that this is no a hardware problem (because it has not changed)

    And the Media Encoder as Photoshop CC 2015 work perfectly.

    Here's the Q & A from here

    • What exact of After Effects version? Include the minor version number - for example, after the CC (12.2.1) effects or After Effects CS6 (11.0.4). Do not just say "After Effects with the latest updates" or "After Effects CC"; give the specific version number.

    I don't really know. It it After Effects CC 2015 with update today (12/12/15).

    Yes.

    • What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OS x 10.6.8" - not just "Mac".

    Windows 7. Service Pack 1 is installed.

    • If you get error messages, what is the integral of the error message text?

    3c8e54ef821d450ca5e009294f2ad4ab.png

    • What you were doing when the problem occurred? What is the exact actions you take?

    Uninstalled After Effects and reinstalled. Twice.

    • He has already worked before? If it worked before doesn't work now, what has changed on your computer in the meantime?

    Yes, he did, until I reinstalled my Windows 7.

    • What versions of drivers for your graphics hardware you have installed (including the CUDA driver and driver for graphics card)?

    • Do you have any hardware I/O of third parties (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic or MOTU)?

    I guess not?

    • What type (s) of the source footage? When talk of your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not only the types of containers. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container,' not just 'QuickTime '.
    • N/a - may not even start After Effects
    • You do not have QuickTime installed. (You should). If so, which version? The answer should be specific, such as "QuickTime 7.6.2".

    Yes

    • What other software do you use?

    Windows 7?

    • Do you have the third party effects or the codecs installed?

    NO.

    N/a - can not even start After Effects.

    • The problem occurs only with your end result, RAM Preview, or both?

    N/a - may not even start After Effects

    N/a - may not even start After Effects

    • You use the traced the beam 3D rendering engine?

    N/a - may not even start After Effects

    • If the problem is with the output, give your exact output parameters (make the adjustment and output module settings). Screenshots help

    N/a - may not even start After Effects

    Hope someone can help me.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Output Module preferences

  • Export video in After Effects

    I'm trying to export a video in After Effects and when exporting video, ago only audio, no video or the video and audio are not synchronized.

    I tried to export in the Render Queue in After Effects and Adobe Media Encoder. When I tried to export as one. MOV, the file exported with no video and audio. When I tried to export to. AVI, but it showed the video was not synchronized with the audio. What I can do / how can I export the file to fix this error.

    To give a bit of history on the file: this is a clip of a video that I cut and stabilized in Premiere Pro and exported as a .mp4 file. I then used rotoscoping tool to hide the background of the video in AfterEffects. Now I'm trying to export the video to a file that can be played on a projector for an exhibition, but the export does not work properly.

    I guess the mp4 exported pp are 1920 x 1080, and they play with success AND without distortion, correct?

    Some codecs and multimedia containers allow only a finite set of horizontal & vertical dimensions... mp4 among them.  This could be the source of your problems if you actually try to create files of 1920 x 1200.

  • After effects CC running very slow with El Capitan!

    Apple and Adobe, we have to answer you as soon as possible! We need this fixed number like yesterday. Since we have updated to the new os El Capitan after effects, first CC and encoder render times doubled. Our workload is now saved, and we need a quick repair. Help, please

    I found the solution smh... Adobe originally had the Mercury Playback accelerated GPU (OpenCL)-updated rendering engine after having upgraded to the new operating system and Adobe CC the default rendering engine update affects the MERCURY PLAYBACK ENGINE SOFTWARE ONLY. Just change the rendering engine to Mercury Playback accelerated GPU (OpenCL) and bingo your back in the game will thank me later. Peace.

  • After effects exported in Adobe Animator? How?

    Hello

    I'm doing a text animation. It is easier to do animation in After Effects.

    I want to use the animation on Muse so I made a png sequence and transformed the After Effects in a sequence of images on Photoshop. Then tried to shoot this sequence in a gif file that has not really loaded. (Perhaps too long) (Animation of 30 seconds)

    From what I've read online, it seems that I should have done this animation on the host as it's more user-friendly web. But for example the typewriter effect is not available on host Adobe.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Is the only way to battle through on the host? I can get some of the after effects effects and drag em over host.  After Effects directly to Muse seems difficult.

    Thank you very much

    Harry

    After Effects export video. So the only way to get something of the AE to animate is as a video file. It's probably not ideal.

  • What systems the Pros use for the first, After Effects and SpeedGrade?

    I bought the complete creative cloud in the hope of a career for me in editing audio/visual. The problem is my system doesn't seem to be able to manage the software, especially when changing back and forth between the three programs mentioned above. In addition, my first project cannot export correctly. In addition, throughout its development the offbeat bad system. And that's after following all of the recommendations of preferences available under tutorials Adobe and elsewhere on the Web.

    Here is my system:

    SYX-P67A-C43: Intel Core i7 2600 (a unit of 8 strands) to 3.4 GHz with 8 GB of RAM (which will be soon 16) with a NVidia GTX 550 card, 1Gig of RAM.

    As you can see, it's well beyond what Adobe claims to be the minimum requirements. It is obviously NOT the case.

    What systems the Pros use (like the guys in the tutorials) for the first, After Effects and SpeedGrade? Give me accurate machines with all the specs so I can a price upward.

    Right now X 99 with DDR4 gives best performance for media applications of particular content with GPU acceleration. I suggest an I7 5960 X, 32 GB of DDR4 2666, 980GTX video card and Asus X 99 board with storage depends on the media. Far, who will perform the 2600 is old of 2 generations at this stage, which is only a Quad core with HT. The same X 99 tips can also manage the Xeons V3 if you upgrade the processor in the future for a larger load in real-time.
