CS5 QT Codec settings window is cutting parameters

I am running CS5 on Win 7 x 64

and every time I open the render queue > output Module > QuickTime > settings of Codec

I get the little dialog box "adjust the parameters in the dialog provided by the codec, and then close when you are finished. [Foreground] »

but the dialog box containing the settings is tiny, all 160px tall and the parameters go well below the 160px cut point.

There is no way to click on the options below in the window.

Previous versions of AE give me this problem on the same computer.

Is anyone else seeing this?  Y at - it a solution or a workaround?

Thank you!

Confirmed that the Avid Codecs package THE 2.2.1 does not provide this.   However, we heard that Avid is working on a version with the fix, but it is not yet available.

To work around the problem, you can save a template file output Module (.aom) of After Effects CS4 with the settings you want for Avid DNxHD, and that import into After Effects CS5.

Some information on this issue might be useful.  This is a bit complicated and requires some understanding of the QuickTime API.  Which I don't have but smart people have explained to me it and I think I can pass on to you.

There is no 64-bit version of QuickTime, Adobe has created an intermediate 32-bit process that first Pro CS5 and After Effects can talk.  He called Adobe QT32 server and you can see running in the activity monitor or Task Manager when the After Effects or Premiere Pro are active.  When you press the button of the Codec settings in the dialog box Options of QuickTime in After Effects, a request is made to the server QT32 to get the dialog box for controls of codec via QuickTime.  (QT32 Server is also responsible for the small box with the key 'Bring forward', which is here to make sure that you do not lose the settings behind other windows codec dialog box.)

Here's the important part: Apple QuickTime API specifies two different ways, by which applications can get the codec controls UI.   Either by calling the QuickTime settings full all user interface (what is After Effects CS4), or by asking just for the codec settings specific in a dialog box separate.  First Pro CS5 and After Effects use this method because it simplifies the user interface and exchange between the application 64-bit and server QT32 process.

The problem occurs when the codec developer is not correctly build the separating the container dialog box controls codec.  This is necessary for this second method API used by After Effects CS5.  It is not necessary for the QuickTime settings full UI, which manages these controls.  And since most applications use the user interface of the full QuickTime settings, it is possible that the developer has programmed the dialog box, but it has not been fully tested.  Or maybe they believed just that no one used this second API and does not at all program.

Problems with codec settings dialog boxes are not limited to Avid DNxHD.  The AJA codecs, for example, do not display a dialog box at all when you press the button of the Codec settings in After Effects CS5, which I suspect means that they have not defined the limits of their dialog.  Of course, we contacted the AJA on this subject, and I confess to not having updated my AJA codecs in a while so they may well have solved the problem.

For what it's worth, all top-codecs QuickTime from Apple provide the correct user interface.  So do some other codecs third and made for some of their Avid codecs.  For example, the Avid DV100 codec uses a separate, same dialog box when you use the user interface of the full QuickTime settings.  Select the codec Avid DV100 in After Effects CS4 and you will see the Options button in the lower left that opens the same dialog box that goes directly to After Effects CS5.

I hope that explanation helps some.

  • Adobe Media Encoder Export Settings window size problem

    Any help on this would be appreciated: I use a MacBook pro, osx 10.6, CS4 Web Premium. I used to have a connected external monitor, which had a much higher resolution, so when you use Adobe Media Encoder I have to click the button settings on a video to get the export settings window, then stretched from the window of export settings for the size of my external screen. Now, I use my laptop computer, and export settings window does not resize top buttons left to adjust it to the size of my laptop and the low third export settings window get cut so I do not see the ok/Cancel buttons etc.

    I tried re-installing media encoder (via reinstalled flash using CDs) to try to 'reset' the window sizes, does not solve the problem.

    If anyone knows of any other preferences or something that I could remove to solve this problem, I can be grateful.

    Yes, I received the same answer. This means that adobe don't use OS native windows (shame on them!). I just tried something with CS4 that worked, however. Try this:

    Stop Media encode

    Go to UserHomeDirectory > library > Preferences > Adobe > Adobe Media Encoder 4.0 > and delete the file called "AMEPrefs.xml" and "AppPrefs.xml".

    Then restart Media Encoder. For me, this reset the window size and placement. I tried to move the window of export settings down to half of it was above the bottom of the screen. Once I deleted those files and rebooted, the window was smaller and repositioned.

    If this does not work, try to download the demo of this product:

    http://irradiatedsoftware.com/sizeup/

    It is said that Adobe programs are programs of "disorder", they won't probably resize, but they should at least move. If nothing else, maybe you can move the window value is negative (upwards) so that the resize handle is visible, then move it down so that the header bar is visible again...

  • Can I install CS5 Production Premium in Windows 10

    I have a desktop with Windows 7 and I was able to install CS5 Production Premium.  I finally updated to Windows 8 and 8.1.  I've also updated for Windows 10 as soon as it became widely available.  The suite CS5 has worked very well under all OS (including Windows 10).  I had problems with Windows OS 10 which were too difficult to analyze and was responsible for making a "Reset this PC" to do a clean install near Windows 10.  This forces me to install all my old applications.  I started first with CS5.  Most of the applications installed, but I had a number of errors [-0 fatal Error (s), 92 (s), 125 warning (s)].

  • Peripheral Bluetooth disconnects when "Bluetooth Headset operations and settings" window is closed

    So when I connect my Bluetooth headset to my laptop I have at the same time press the 'connect' button on my headset * and * open the Bluetooth Headset operations and settings window, then click on 'Connect' on there also.

    So my first question is:

    Why do I have to do a step totally superfluous alone time I want to connect my headset? It should be the case that once I've set up my headset with my laptop, it will automatically connect when I press the 'connect' button on my helmet. I wouldn't do more than that.

  • the .xml file will not hold the new version I am writing on the 'AIR for iOS settings' window on Flash cc 2015

    Hello

    I need to download a new version of my app on iOS, but the .xml file will not hold the new version I am writing on the 'AIR for iOS settings' window on Flash cc 2015. It keeps appearing as:

    <? XML version = "1.0".

    also when I try to download the new .ipa on iTunes Connect with the Application Loader, I get this message:

    "" "ERROR-ITMS-4238:"redundant binary Upload. " «"" "" There is already a binary download with release ' 1.0.0' train ' 1.0.0 ' "at SoftwareAssets/PreReleaseSoftwareAsset»»»

    The problem is not of Application Loader or iTunes Connect as when I open again the .fla and check the window 'AIR for iOS parameters' he continues to display the 1.0 version over and over again. If Flash isn't that save the .xml file.

    And it happens with all my other apps Android or iOS, old and new versions, all appear as <? XML version is "1.0" on the .xml file.

    Is anyone know how can I solve this problem?

    Thank you.

    There are two different values, the build number and version number. If you use a test flight, you can submit an update without obtaining a review by increasing the build number. If you are submitting an update to an application in iTunesConnect, you must increment the version number.
