Let me guess: you're using HDV footage or something akin to it.



Dave's Stock Answer #1:

If the footage you imported into AE is any kind of the following -- Native HDV, MPEG1, MPEG2, mp4, m2t, H.261 or H.264 -- you need to convert it to a different codec.

These kinds of footage use temporal, or interframe compression. They have keyframes at regular intervals, containing complete frame information. However, the frames in between do NOT have complete information. Interframe codecs toss out duplicated information.

In order to maintain peak rendering efficiency, AE needs complete information for each and every frame. But because these kinds of footage contain only partial information, AE freaks out, resulting in a wide variety of problems.

ok, still the same way, but when I use the render dialog i can render out, thanks.

i do animation and render out tga sequences. I think It might be my computer. I reinstalled AE, still wont export.

[allan onderick] "when I use the render dialog i can render out.... I reinstalled AE, still wont export."

Doesn't that give you any kind of clue at all, for Heaven's sake?

Don't export! Render using the Render Queue! Look up "render queue" in AE Help for details!
