Postby RavageXavier » Thu Feb 21, 2008 10:07 am Whenever I try importing avi files into after effects 7 standard, AE issues an error message saying: After Effects error:retrieving frame from video stream. (3) (53::34). Is there a way to successfully import the files into AE without converting them?. I mean converting is too much of a hassle, and the output isnt what you hoped for. I'm hoping there is a way to solve this problem. The avi files are Xvid, or so Gspot says. Also I have installed K-lite codec pak's ffdshow.

I tryed xvid official decoder but it only made things worse... but when I tryed ffdshow (it comes with a kinda hidden VFW version for almost all codecs it has) it worked.

After capturing my footage from a dvx100a using Vegas, I imported the footage to After Effects so I could use Magic Bullet. It is a 4 minute film, and it seems if I place the timeline at 2:30 and over I get this error "After Effects http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?85723-After-Effects-error-Retrieving-frame-from-video-stream error: retrieving frame from video stream. (3) (53:34) This is just an original capture file using vegas, I don't know why its doing this. I shot in 24p, 120 shutter speed and captured in 24.000(film) If anyone can help me out, that would be great Quick Navigation After Effects Top Site Areas Settings Private Messages Subscriptions Who's Online Search Forums Forums Home Forums ANNOUNCEMENTS & NEWS Site Info & Feedback DVXFEST - ZombieFest II ZombieFest II - The Films ZombieFest II - Collaboration NAB SHOW 2016 Industry News & Information Press Releases New Members Forum PANASONIC - Video Cameras AF100 Screen Grabs / Footage - AF100 HVX200/HPX170 General 200/170 News, Comments, etc. Technical - HVX200/HPX170 Hardware - HVX200/HPX170 Workflow Screen Grabs / Footage - HVX200 Screen Grabs / Footage - HPX170 HMC Cams Technical - HMC150 HMC40/80 HMC40/80 Footage / Stills Workflow - HMC150 Screen Grabs / Footage - HMC150 Varicam AC160/130/90 Technical - AC160/130/90 Workflow - AC160/130/90 Screen Grabs / Footage - AC160/130/90 DVX200 DVX100 General DVX News, Comments, etc. Technical - DVX Screen Grabs / Clips of DVX footage Panasonic - General / Other HPX250 Technical - HPX250 Workflow - HPX250 Screen Grabs / Footage - HPX250 HPX300 HPX500 General HPX News, Comments, etc. Screen Grabs/Clips of HPX500 Footage HDSLRs Panasonic GH Cameras GH Workflow GH Hardware, Lenses, etc. GH Still and Motion Gallery GH13: The G
