I tried to install Avid After Effects EMP for MC5.01. I have After effects CS5 installed but still get the message "AvidAfterEffects EMP requires that Adobe(r) After Effects(r) be installed."  

I started After Effects and it works fine.

I've got a similar problem. I've got AE5.5 which installs and runs fine with W7 64-bit. But everytime I try to install the EMP, I get the same error message as Ivo.

It's a known MC 5 bug, install the MC 4 or earlier EMP plugin.

I tried the one from MC4 which wouldn't install and gave a different error. I then tried the one from XPress Pro 5.8.4 which did install but when I started AE, it wouldn't load the EMP plugin - failed with an error.

Does anyone have any more info on this? I'm not sure what else I can try.

Thanks

mthair, I do not use AfterFX myself so the information I gave You comes from forum reading, I clearly remember that the MC 5 EMP plugin has a bug and that the "fix" is to install an older version, You may need to spend some time searching the forums to find out which would be a working release.

Guys,
I noticed that on the lastest version v5.5.1. it listed a bug fix for:
'After Effects EMP Plugin did not install properly on Windows 7 systems.'
Does anyone know where I can actual download the Plugin from?

EDIT:

D'oh.  Found it in the Installers when you say you want to install individual products, but when I try it says the 'specified path is empty'...  Guess this is still a bug then...
