Could anyone lend me a hand with this? I need to render a video for my YouTube channel but there is an error. This only started happening yesterday.

    Correct answer WolfireSounds

    It's likely that your plug-ins are causing the issue.

    Is your GPU driver up to date?

    Are you running the latest version of your plug-ins? These can be updated from Red Giant Link.

    You can also try to export to something other than H.264. Try an intermediate formate like DNxHD or Cineform. That will export from Ae much quicker anyway, then you would convert that to H.264.


    I exported in MXF and it actually rendered. I can possibly try another format

    Are you queuing this job from Premiere or After Effects? It looks like it's failing instantly (the timecode is all zeroes), so I would go into wherever you created the project and manually render that first frame to see if it fails there. Is it just black, or is it a cross dissolve? If so, I would try to delete it and re-apply. We need a lot more information to troubleshoot this better, so if you could write back with more info about this project and what it's composed of, that would be helpful.

    I'm using Adobe After Effects. It is failing instantly. Also, the first frame is completely black and it fades in. I can try to render just the second half of it. When/If I find the point where it is failing, how would I fix it?

    I would try simply deleting the fade keyframes and reapplying them. If it's not that, what is the content you're fading in on? Is it a pre-comp? If so, check the contents of that.
