PDA View Full Version : After Effects error: opening sound component (-2166) Please help! gizmo199002-01-2006, 12:09 PMI'm using AE5.5 and I'm trying to output my comp but each time I add audio to it I get this error message: After Effects error: opening sound component (-2166) (10 :: 44) Can anyone tell me what the problem is here? I also get the same error when I load the audio into my comp and open its waveform? The audio file is just a simple WAV file exported from Goldwave. I'd really appreciate any help. suztv02-03-2006, 09:48 PMI have had the same exact issue although it isn't as friendly as what you describe - usually AE just quits. My suggestion is to save your sound files as .aif - no compression. No other way around it. If you have problems saving it out as an .aif from goldwave use itunes to do it for you. DaveW02-06-2006, 09:45 PMI'm getting the same error with all the audio I try to export. I don't know what's causing it, but I've heard some people say that Quicktime 7 interferes with After Effects exporting so maybe that's the culprit. gdogfunk02-09-2006, 07:55 PMI've had the same problem today trying to render to both the DV codec and the AVID codec. My solution (not really a fix) was to keep re-rendering the comp and hope it made it through the render...sometimes I get the error 4 frames in and sometimes it's almost done rendering... I'm using AE 5.5 on OSX3.9...man I love how AE5.0 on OS9 was stable as hell...damn OSX.... I was experiencing something similar b

I am using Mac OS X snow leopard 10.6.8. I was trying to render but was having problems with the audio. I installed QT 7 but the problem after effects error is still happening with message 'After Effects Error: Opening sound component -2166.' Help?! Has this ever happened to anyone?

Re: After Effects 5.5 rendering audio issues Mylenium May 2, 2013 6:50 AM (in response to rosieandsam) Check, whether you have installed some specific voice-over or voice messaging software or something like an external headset/ microphone. this looks like a hardware driver/ CoDec error. Anything beyond that will require much more details on what's involved in your comp and render settings...Mylenium Like Show 0 Likes(0) Actions Actions More Like This Retrieving data ...
