Hello

I have the similar problem.

My AE CS5 on windows 7 64bit doesn't recognise any installed codec (ec. divx, xvid,...none). I don't know what to do. Any suggestin please?

When i go to Render queue -> Output module - lossless -> Format options -> Video codec  it shows only basic codec not xvid,divx... I have installed divx codec and register it and still nothing.

Hi.... i been tring to put my cs5 ae into work but nothing i find works... i have delete divx, qt x, little snitch and noting. He sometimes opens some time not. I delete the preference once o twice to make it works and sometimes that works sometimes not. I have a osx 10.6.4, AE 10.0.1, and this is the error that came. Hope can help...

Hi thanks there... i check the memorys and everythinks ok... The programs crash looking in the file format, but where in hell are they?? try to find it to chech whats in there but only find that photoshop its the one why a folder called like that...

Sorry, forget the link, I see that is where you are already. But hopefully a mac user will chime in!

Hello

I´ve had the same problem on 64 bit Win7. AE CS5 freezes at startup, splash dialog says "Initializing Mediacore" and nothing happens.

I emptied the mediacore-folder (Program/Adobe/Adobe After Effects CS5/Support Files/(Media Core plug-ins)/Common) and copy/pasted all of the files to a folder on my desktop. After that I was able to start After Effect. Then I copy/pasted the files back in the Media Core Folder, one by one, and started After Effects each time. When the file "ImporterRED" was added back in the Media Core Folder, After Effects didn´t start and the splash dialog once again froze at "Initializing Mediacore". I removed the "ImporterRED" and After Effects started.

My only dilemma right now is that Adobe Premiere won´t start. Just as before I removed the ImporterRED-file, Premiere freezes at startup, a splash dialog says "Loading ImporterRED.prm" and nothing happens. But I guess that´s another problem...

Sorry mate, I have absolutely no clue..

sorry i don't remember what thing i added that installed that..wish i could be of more help

I tried to email you the file but it bounced. Send me an email and I'll shoot it to you. Mine's mantis108@gmail.com

Well... I did the new user again and its work. Thank to all

I've tried everything, adding all pf the suggestions to my firewall list, searched for any faulty quicktime files but AfterFX AND Premiere won't work

AfterFX because of the mediacore, Premiere Pro because of ImporterRed. Even when I disable my firewall. (I still have Microsoft Security Essentials running, does anyone have any experience with this?)

Is there a proper sollution for this problem because this is really unacceptable.

I'm on a win 7, 64 bit machine.

thx

for all the mac users, there is firewall on mac, you should just go there and allow th e incoming connections to AE. That's all ... you restart and AE is loading perfectly . (system preferences- security - firewall- advanced ..)

Mine froze at mediacore as well and I traced the problem to my windows temporary file location. So I went to CONTROL PANEL -> SYSTEM -> ADVANCED SYSTEM SETTINGS -> ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES and then set both TEMP and TMP to C:\Users\Peter\AppData\Local\Temp

It will be different depending on yoru username.

I believe the problem may have been that the After Effects disk cache location was the same as the windows temp location... maybe a conflict or something.
