OpenGL support in After Effects CS4
Adobe® After Effects® CS4 software adds high-fidelity OpenGL support for camera depth of field and nested compositions to existing support for blending modes, adjustment layers, track mattes, accelerated effects, anti-aliasing, 2D motion blur, lights, and shadows.
On Mac OS X 10.4.11 and higher, Microsoft® Windows® XP, and Microsoft® Vista® systems, display card drivers that support OpenGL 2.0 or higher are required to take advantage of OpenGL support in After Effects.
Please ensure the most recent driver for your display card is installed. See the technical document for more information.
