Hi

I'm rendering a 6 minute video in after effects. It's been going on for over 14 hours and stuck on 89% done.

Any suggestions to fix this?

Thanks

My guess would be your cache is full. Can you pause the render and clear it out. When I'm doing long sequences like this, I tend to render in Adobe Media Encoder (which makes it easier to clear the cache via AE) and render out as an image sequence so if I am forced to restart the render, I can pick up where I left off.

Hey you can modify your render settings to a lower resolution or use a more efficient codec to reduce the rendering load or

clearing the disk cache can resolve issues related to corrupted cache files. Go to Edit > Purge > All Memory & Disk Cache in After Effects.
