Repeated Render Errors - Code -1609629695

Over the past week or two I'm having a ton of render failures in Adobe Media Encoder with the error code -1609629695. Last night 5 different renders all failed. I've tried switching the renderer to Software Only and it didn't help. I've pasted some of the error messages below. Several of these sequences have failed dozens of times. One particular sequence has failed so many times that its version number is now 42 - and it's the first cut sent to the client. Or, I should say, not sent, because it still hasn't worked.

    Do you have installed the latest update. It seems that there were a bug in the previous version.

    What you can try too is to deactivate the GPU support (Mercury Playback Engine) and render with the setting "Mercury Playback Engine - Software only".

    As I said in my original post, deactivating my GPU had no effect. I'm running 12.0 (CC 2018), the most recent version
