Media Encoder hangs during batch

Windows 10 1803

Adobe ME 12.1.2

CUDA with 1x 1070 ti 3x 1080 ti

Trying to encode cineform (.mov) proxies for hundreds of interviews. Every time I set it to go, it makes it through about 3-4 of them before hanging half way through one. Never hangs on the same one twice, just restarts the queue and hangs a few encodes later. Not unresponsive, but the encoding itself is frozen. I am still able to save the queue, but as soon as I go to close the app, it completely freezes and requires shutdown via task manager. Seriously need a fix for this

- What time of footage (camera, codec, frame size, frame rate, audio channels etc.)?

- How much RAM does this system have?

- Does it happen when you use software only?

- How much drive space is available on both the C: drive as on the media drive?

- Are loading the files over a network or of a local drive?

Hi Joost,

- Mixture of footage: C300 4K mxf, A7si 4K mp4, FS7 4K mp4, FS5 4K mp4. Doesn't hang on a particular type ever, just random.

- 64GB ME is only using up to about 10-20GB at a time

- I think I've tried switching to Software only but honestly can't remember. I'll give it a go on the next hang.

- 300GB on C and haven't seen any creep in space. Footage drive is at 5TB available, These proxies should be just under 1TB

- Local drive

Seems your system is beefy enough...
