After Effects CS4 & MP4s - Rendering out really weird.

[Rob M 0]

Hi all,

 

I'm at the moment putting together a pitch for some future work.

I've used some footage of a saturday night TV show, so I grabbed this on my DVD recorder (freeview thing) and ripped the Vobs to MP4s via Handbrake.

So far so good, all looks nice, plays in Quicktime just fine.

The problem is... I import into after effects (no errors) but when I render the scene out, the footage has gone crazy like its mixed up with static or something.

Anyone got any thoughts? Would save my bacon if you can help

 

 

Thanks,

Rob

what happens when you rename the .vob files to .mpg, and import directly into AE?

Use QT Pro to export the raw clip as Animation (or an AE friendly codec) and do a file replace
