    Hi Pixelproducer,

    Are you queuing the export from Premiere Pro or AfterEffects?

    In AME Preferences > General > Uncheck "Import sequences natively" & try export.

    Also, share a screenshot of the error message in AME with us.

    Thanks,

    Vidya

    Guys..I solved my problem. In my first composition, I've used VC Reflect effect. I just delete this effect and the render worked fine. I hope this helps.

    I also have this broblem but I have this option greyed out in my preferences since I'm using after effects.

    Did you ever find a solution?  Just found out mine is greyed out as well.

    Same thing here. I just can render in AVI...this is frustrating.

    Hi Damon Caller,

    Sorry for the issue. Have you updated the GPU drivers? Update the graphics driver | Windows 8, 7, Vista

    Change the renderer in Queue panel to Mercury Playback Engine Software mode & test.

    Thanks,

    Vidya.

    I have the same problem under the following specs:

    MacBook Pro (Retina, Mitte 2012)

    2,6 GHz Intel Core i7

    8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1 GB

    Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB

    A soon as it start to render a scene utilizing warp stabilizer, it aborts.

    Software Mode doesn't work either.
