I was just about to jump to CC but the OS I’m currently using does no= t support CC!!!!!

So now I’m faced with “killing” vintage 3D tools.... Or u= pgrading my OS.

This is an untenable option right now.

re: C... base frame.

hmm, are you using multiple roto brush spans, or just a single span? i beli= eve there was an issue (fixed in CC) that dealt with the end frames of adjac= ent spans when a temporal-related property (e.g., reduce chatter or use moti= on blur) was enabled. if two spans are abutting at the problem frame, it's p= robably this issue. aside from trying CC (probably not a thing to do on dead= line), it _might_ be possible to remove one of the spans, lengthen the other= to cover it, to see if that helps. however, the segmentation might change w= ith the underlying foreground & background strokes now using a different= base frame.

thanks in advance for sending a sample project.

Jeff,

VERY good questions....

A) purging the memory DID change the display at one point. But the problem = came back the next time I did anything. One frame earlier if I recall...

B) 11.0.2.11

C) It’s the roto-brushed footage and it seems that the problem occurs= right when there’s a “Key Frame” (I know that’s not= what it’s called) in the roto brush.

D) this always happens when there are multiple projects on deadline. I̵= 7;ll try to get a simplified project together in the morning.

Thanks!!!!

hi lachlan,

if you're parked on the problem frame, does purging the memory cache fix it= ? if not, and if the disk cache is enabled, try disabling/emptying the disk = cache, then purging the memory cache. does that fix it?

are you on 11.0.2? it fixed a few caching-related bugs.

is it the roto brushed footage or masked footage that's causing the problem= (i.e., if you mute one or other does the problem no longer appear)?

if neither fixes it, would you be able to send us (aebugs@adobe.com) a simp= lified project, and w/ sample footage (if it's related to roto brush)?

thanks,
:jeff

I’m doing a roto job in AE CS6

It’s a combo of rotobrush and standard rotoscoping.

I having a problem where on certain frames the comps will go out of sync fo= r one frame and then be right on the next frame.

Details:

EVERYTHING is at 24fps.

Footage is lots of hands waving.

I have one source comp with the footage in it. I’ll drag that comp in= to a master comp and then roto out a hand.

Then I’ll drag the SAME source comp into the master comp and roto out= an arm.

When I RAM preview or Render, they’ll go out of sync about 10 frames = in.

I’ve even rendered out the clips and re-imported as a PS sequencing t= hinking it might be a QuickTime issue. Same problem.

Any ideas?
