The Roto brush tool crashes after effects quite often in V22.6. It's becoming unuseable. I tried opening new AE files with just a single clip and click the roto brush once & it'll crash; I've tested it with different clips, & with Mercury GPU acceleration (CUDA) & Mercury Software Only

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 32-core CPU
NVIDIA 3090 GPU
128GB RAM
working on SSDs only 
Windows 10 64-bit

Drivers are up to date


Thanks,

Try generating proxies and then use the tool.

What is the file format? MP4 files are problematic. If tht is the case, try to transcode into any other format. like Quicktime ProRes or DNX.

What is the size of the original footage? Have you tried to convert it to a proxy format?
