After Effects using only 1% of the RAM

• After Effects does not recognize all the RAM

  I just installed After Effects on a new PC with 6 GB of RAM, but it says on the splash screen that appears when loading of the AE x % of 4 GB of RAM used.

  I have to do something to see 6 GB?

  Thanks in advance.

  Assuming you are using a 64-bit version of Windows.

  AE is a 32-bit application.

  In preferences, there is a setting for the memory and multiprocessor.

  Check that out and it will be wrong on the 32-bit limitation by launching several nodes rendering AE.

  However, this setting seems to come with its own problems of stability, in my case anyway.

• After Effects using 5 GB of ram for the preview of a video 12 MB in size without any effect.

  I after effects CC 2015 to date.

  My terms of reference are:

  CPU: i5 6500 3.2 Ghz

  8 GB of RAM: DDR4-2133 MHz RAM

  Storage:256 GB SSD (on which After Effects is installed)

  1 TB HARD DRIVE

  Graphics card: GeForce GTX M 970, 6 GB

  All the drivers are up to date.

  The problem is: I create a new project and import a video in. The video has a full HD resolution and is 12.5 MB in size. First of all, it takes a minute to play the video of RAM so that it begins to play in real time. Then, the video is 30 frames per second, but reading the preview, he plays at 60 frames per second (frame rate is defined as 30 fps in composition settings). I saw the RAM usage in the Task Manager and After Effects using 5 GB of RAM. Then I applied an effect and the CPU usage rose to 100% and it took about 5 minutes to get the applied effect, and after that, After Effects crashed.

  I'm quite new to After Effects, but I'm also a tech geek. I tried to play in the settings but it didn't help. I also searched on google and forums, but to no avail. This problem is essentially what makes the software unusable for me. Please HELP!

  You do not want to edit long movies in AE. After effects is NOT video editing software.  A non-linear editing (NLE) like Premiere Pro is for editing photos to tell a story. AE is for compositing, Visual effects and graphic cartoons. It is for the creation of clichés that you then use in an NLE.

  I suggest to get at least 16 GB of RAM to work with AE, but your system should work as it is. You will need to learn to manage your memory well and to get a glimpse at lower resolutions where possible.

  Now, as to your original question. AE is not simply to play a video stream, as does a NLE. After effects (such as other software based compositing on pixels) with completely decompressed frames. When you put a video compressed in a composition, the size of the original video file has no effect on the size of the images that works with After Effects. After effects unpacks this video and works internally with a full, uncompressed resolution, frames. AE calculates the values of each pixel in each image, comes with a new pixel and then reads these pixels. Who is?

  In fact, since you have so little RAM and the processor is not either, it may be a good idea to convert your video files highly compressed in a good intermediate codec for the shots, that you intend to use in AE. QuickTime with the PNG codec would be a decent choice. This way AE doesn't have to do a ton of work to decompress images behind the scenes until you can even work with him.

• Can not browse the Presets of After Effects using bridge

  Whenever I try to browse the presets in After Effects using Bridge, a warning notification appears saying bridge to not installed when I installed it well. So I try to uninstall it and then installed it again and it still doesn't work. Help, please.

  Hello

  We published a new version of Adobe Bridge (CC 2015) on July 19, 2016. This update is available via the Adobe Creative Cloud application.

  We addressed some launch bridge issues experienced on the launch of the After Effects application. Please try the new version and look for problems you encounter.

  If you are not able to locate the bridge (CC 2015) on the creative cloud application, you will need to update the creative cloud application and restart your computer.

  Thank you

• After Effects CS6: Cache and reload the film problem

  After Effects CS6: Cache and reload the film problem

  I have trouble to get my images to be updated in an AE project.

  In an existing project, there is a sequence of images in a publication.  I saved and closed AE, modified images (same size and quantity of images, only the pixel data changes) and then restarted AE and open the project.  Although I've changed the images, the old content still appears.

  To resolve this problem, I did the following:

  Edition > purge > all memory

  Edition > purge > picture Cache memory

  Edit > Preferences > media & Disk Cache > clear Disk Cache

  Edit > Preferences > media & Disk Cache > clean database & Cache

  In the project window, I selected all the sequences and selected Reload

  None of them got the images to update.  I could click the film twice in the project bin and scrub the playhead and the old footage was still displayed.

  Finally, I had to replace the film with himself and that solved the problem.

  If it is operator error, lack of understanding of the functions of cache, or something else, I would be grateful for some assistance. I don't remember this behavior in CS 5.5, so I think it's a change in SC6.

  Win 7 Pro 64-bit Service Pack 1

  Intel Xeon processor X 5450 @ 3 .00GHz 2.99 GHz

  20 GB OF RAM

  I think I found the solution or what the cause of the problem, at least in my case!

  I exported the image many in a single folder and later imported into AE sequence choose all together multiple sΘquence. I then created a model composition copied several times and tried to replace valid images dragging in their computer and replacing the model holding Alt. But it does not work. Everything I've done.

  SOLUTION: move footage in each separate folder (in Solution Explorer) and then imported one after the other and rest is all used!

  I hope I helped someone! See you soon!

• After Effects does not appear in the creative Cloud Desktop application

  It took more than 10 minutes to get to this place just to ask a question... REALLY from ADOBE, you can make it easier for people to get help with your products? I'm in my 50th minutes installing a trial version of After effects on a PC. After the update and create my account cloud Adobe, After Effects is no where. I am really frustrated and can proceed to Final Cut Pro! Someone wants to tell me how to install After Effects. Ridiculous!

  After Effects does not appear in the creative application cloud if your system does not meet the requirements of System. After Effects - Adobe. This question was asking about two or three times a month from the creative cloud was announced. You can't blame Adobe that you didn't read the requirements before you sign up for creative cloud.

When I try to save the project after you apply the 3d glasses effect to my left and right eye in my MASTER comp, just After Effects comps quit unexpectedly and does not save the project. When I try to open the project he said then that there was missing data in the file.

  > I also have another question. Is there a way to make the DPX from after effects instead of cineon or TIFF?

  Yes, you can view and export DPX out of After Effects. You can choose between Cineon and DPX in the dialog box settings Cineon, you can get from the output Module Settings dialog box after you have selected Cineon sequence as the format in the dialog box Settings of output Module .

  After Effects is not available in the list of apps on creative cloud that I just downloaded.

  I tried to download it from the site, but would be automatically launche creative cloud that, even once, includes no AfterEffects!

  What should I do?

  This is probably because your computer does not meet the configuration system requirements - for example, is not a 64-bit computer.

• CS 5.5 uses only 22% of my ram, but 100% of the CPU

  Hello

  I wonder why the ram usage is so low compared to the CPU in AE cs 5.5? I check the stats background when rendering that happens and it is said that 22% of my ram is used. Even to the end, only 22%.

  That being said, people here are recommending tons of ram, such as 32 GB +, but why? If this is the case? Maybe my computer needs more complex effects such as the production of grain?

  Thank you!

  The number reported at the bottom of the request for use of the RAM is only the amount used by the foreground application. It has nothing to do with how much is used by the instance of After Effects context or assistance process.

• After Effects use not RAM?

  Hello

  I just have a question about after effects and use of the ram.

  I remember before I installed the Memory Booster app - which allows you to keep track of how much ram, there was a healthy use of RAM there sequelae.

  But I noticed today, while making and rendering cache in the background, the free RAM is still available in about 4 GB and I wonder why he does not use this free RAM to help a faster rendering?

  This is my current settings of the multi-processing/ram on AE-essentially it is recommended to use up to 6.5 GB of RAM I allocated that I need to make it faster? I was wondering why he is staying stuck at about 3-4GB of RAM free on my system when it could easily be used by AE. I want the AE RAM usage as it is the only program running on my system when I work!

  

  Memory Booster to 3.18 GB with tab of a safari open for the Adobe forums, leaving, he climbs up to 4 GB of free RAM

  Confused!

  Thank you

  Not all RAM will be used all the time - not by any software. Sometimes, the RAM is not the constrained resource.

• After Effects uses a lot of memory (live RAM) when you perform simple work

  Hello

  When I open AE, make a new project, import a simple 20 MB mp4 file itself and start playback of the clip (RAM Preview), consumption of RAM of After Effects gets up to 5 GB, and the CPU usage gets up to 50%!

  This is a really simple job, and I don't know why it takes so many resources, it wasn't happening to me before.

  I'm on Windows 8.1, I use After Effects 13.2.0.49 (2014.2) and I have 8 GB of RAM.

  Why is this happening?

  Thanks in advance.

  MP4 are notoriously calculation-heavy because they are so heavily compressed.  What explains the treatment part.

  RAM previews allow AE to use so much memory that it has to play in real time.  What explains the part of the memory.

• Is it possible to create a Qt Widgets within After Effects using the SDK?

  Hello

  I would like to use Qt to create dialogs and widgets inside AfterEffects.

  I started with the Panelator sample in the SDK. I can include QtGui in the project, but as soon as I create any object with QObject as a base class After Effects immediately crashes with the following error: '[...] "could not be loaded (48::46)"

  When I try to delay load QtCore.dll and QtGui.dll, I can at least start the plugin and see, that the accident occurred in the initializer of QObject.

  I use

  VS 2010

  QT 4.8.5

  and my buildenvironment is x 64

  I was wondering if there is some sort of incompatibility of incorporation Qt into After Effects (due to the compiler/linker configuration or sets or something like that).

  It is the output of the debugger:

  Inhabitants:

  

  Discussions:

  

  My code of the Panel-constructor function:

  int argc = 0;

  char * argv [1] = {""};

  QApplication * a = new QApplication (argc, argv); ERROR GETTING PRODUCT IN THIS LINE. for a test, I traded it to QWidget * w = new QWidget(); and sometimes as well.

  QWidget * w = new QWidget();

  w-> show();

  one-> exec();

  Beyond the works AfterFX Qt fine and I also can defer loading QtCore and QtGui.

  If someone of you has already experience in the use of QT in AfterEffects, I would greatly appreciate your help!

  Thanks in advance.

  I've heard a similar problen with QtWidgets in a different context, and that the only solution was to connect the Qt libraries statically.

  Another short in the dark: try putting the dll Qt somewhere in the path (if they aren't already) or to the folder where the "After Effects.exe', because I remember, there could be situations where the"current"Directory isn't the plugin but the source of the host folder.
