Issues with QuickTime DVCPRO HD 1080i60 in After Effects 2026

I'm facing issues with rendering in the latest version of Adobe After Effects (2026).

When I try to render using a specific codec (QuickTime DVCPRO HD 1080i60), the output looks fast-forwarded, as if it were playing at twice the normal speed. Additionally, the second half of the render appears as a black screen.

This issue started occurring after updating to the 2026 version.

Thanks,
Luis

You update your graphic card driver if you are a Windows user.

Updating graphic card drivers didn't work (nvidia user here, rtx 4060).

However, changing render settings to "Mercury Software Only" did work. In
case you have the same problem.
