maybe someone can help me out here but I am having some big issues with
action movie essential quicktime movies

I bought the dvd a while back when I had a pc and using after effects 7

then I swiched to a macpro with AE CS3 and today as I was putting together
a commercial I sent my ref movie to AE cs3 as usual and imported some explosions action movie essential files to AE cs3 but then it all went to hell, AE stated acting really weird and suddering
and confussing footage for example I had clip 1 and clip 3 and with the
action movie essential file on the animation, AE would play clip 3 with clip 1 footage and stoping at random, a whole mess, I have tried everything from rendering the action movie quicktime with different codecs to see if the problem would go away but nothing, it keep doing the same thing, I was reading on creative cow that some guy had the same problem but no one answered,
anyone?

sorry for the long post

i had similar issues with certain quicktime movies skipping around etc. i had recently switched to an intel mac and leopard. it turned out my installer was the problem. even with the update for intel and leopard it was still screwy. go to the adobe site to download the latest installer. it will be the tryout version but is actually the full version. just enter your serial number and it becomes the permanent version. then download the 8.0.2 update.
