Question

Error Code 3 when exporting

Im just trying to export a video in the Media Encoder, but somehow it just doesn't work at all. All I get is the Error Code 3. There is nothing special in my video that could cause issues. I removed two images before and then all of a sudden it exported properly, but now I'm wondering what the issue was. I'm always exporting with the same settings and I never had any issues before. Help would be really appreciated. 🙂

Good idea, but I exported again with the same images (only 2) and I did a comparison with the 2 images so both side by side with a rectangle as a white backround. Did the same as before and it worked just as it should. Maybe the issue got fixed, because I deleted all of the queue in Media Encoder. Just hoping it doesn't happen in the future. Thanks though!

I'd recommend taking the problem images into Photoshop if possible and re-exporting them as the same format with a different name and then importing the new files into your project. Maybe there's something wonky with the old images.
