after effects: aegp plugin tiffio: error reading tiff data ( 5027 :: 12)
Are there any solutions for this?
The error, for whatever reason, is because its a TIF sequence. ( I dunno exactly what the cause is/was, but I was getting it myself.) I found a work around. I changed all image planes and the output picture to render as PNG. In case anyone else comes strolling through with a similar problem, I will say that I started off with several other issues that NO ONE on the net seemed to have experienced, which I caused me to have to solve it myself with process of elimination.
My first problem was with my mantra, when I would render out my different planes my burst and plasma would export fine, but for whatever reason no matter what I told my mantra to do on render, the stream would export the fully colored path instead of giving me my greyscale like the other two. I fixed this by reverting my output picture from the file name/path to $HIP/render/$HIPNAME.$OS.$F3.png. Then it rendered all 4 out as it was suppose to. (the 4th is the combination of them all which is trash for compositing.) Hope this helps anyone that comes along.
