Animation Render Frame Stalling Issue on Apple Silicon Devices

Hello,

I’m trying to create an animation video using Stager on my Apple Silicon device. The render process starts smoothly, and frames are successfully recorded. However, after a certain point (this happens at different frames in my tests), the render process stops progressing. For instance, in one of my attempts, it got stuck on frame 28 and didn’t proceed for hours.

I have tested this on different devices and with various scene settings, but I encountered the same issue. I’m sharing my log files, hoping they will help identify the root cause of the problem.

Thank you in advance!

Sorry for the typo. I meant to say I’ve taken dozens of renders.

Yes, I checked the system requirements. It seems that 16 GB of RAM is ideal as a minimum, but I got render times dozens of times longer with Stager (both animation and image). This issue has just come up for me. As updates come, the program seems to be going backward.

Hello, can you check the system requirements for Stager to see if your computer is ok?
