| Thanks for the tip, Chris. I was using the Smoother after every track, and deleting all but the Attach Point or Position KFs when that’s all I needed. My Auto-Saves were taking 30 seconds, so I tempted fate and changed the frequency from 15 minutes to 60. I save often usually anyway as I was raised on no auto-save and even one undo from early Ps days. > On Aug 15, 2018, at 7:42 PM, Chris Zwar <AE-List@media-motion.tv> wrote: > > I’ve definitely seen the type of behaviour you’re seeing, when projects are very large with lots of keyframes. It’s happened to me on a few occasions when I’m importing .ma files and every frame has a keyframe for every property. If you’re tracking in AE you might not have this problem. I was generally able to get around it by deleting all unnecessary keyframes from the imports - most of the time there were keyframes on every frame for properties that didn’t animate. This would generally make the projects smaller and faster to work with too. There’s at least one script around which will clean up unnecessary keys - might be worth checking aescripts. > >> On 16 Aug 2018, at 9:45 am, Jim Curtis <AE-List@media-motion.tv> wrote: >> >> It works well in Premiere, too.

I wonder if the issues are related. I reinstalled my GPU and CUDA drivers, to no avail. Had to switch to CPU only in Premiere to get all my layers to show and render (ProRes 4444+ clips with alpha were showing as full black and turning every clip thereafter full black.). That was also an issue I’ve not had before. >> >> >> >> >> >> >>> On Aug 15, 2018, at 5:28 PM, Chris Zwar <AE-List@media-motion.tv> wrote: >>> >>> Yes, I remember Todd Kopriva explaining that when you import a project into AE, it is filtered/processed to check and remove corruption.

This didn’t work on one Comp. So, I opened the Comp. Select all Layers. Copy. Create New Project and Comp. Paste. Relink footage. I got an error message telling my footage was tracked on a 360 x 180 layer (??? - Not true), but my tracking data was fine. I just deleted the Mocha Pro plug-in that created the data, and all is well.
