How compatibility works
Choose the 3ds Max version you use. For example, selecting 2020 puts direct matches for 2020 first, followed by listings that say a supported version or newer.
Scripts that only mention an older version can still appear as “2020 unconfirmed.” Listings that rule out 2020 are excluded. Use “Show scripts with unconfirmed compatibility” to also see listings without a clear match.
Community reports show what worked for members on a specific release. They’re separate from the listing’s compatibility claims and don’t change the filter.

(tab)Source Width(tab)1920
(tab)Source Height(tab)1080
(tab)Source Pixel Aspect Ratio(tab)1
(tab)Comp Pixel Aspect Ratio(tab)1
Update required
I noticed that in the latest versions of AE to have the keyframes pasted with the correct FPS you need to specify the Units per second together with other comp attributes before the transform matrix in the clipboard data, like this:
Adobe After Effects 8.0 Keyframe Data
Units Per Second 24
Source Width 1920
Source Height 1080
Source Pixel Aspect Ratio 1
Comp Pixel Aspect Ratio 1
Transform Position
Frame X pixels Y pixels Z pixels
0 2576.81 -137.659 -297.006
Until the scripts gets updated, you can do it manually by pasting into notepad and editing the data before copying it back to AE.
