Hello, I have big render to made, last time when I was rendering After effect project it went good. Today when I added some corrections render just randomly stops. First try it stopped after 20 minutes, estimilated time and time left just stopped and not moving. Tried to pasue and render again but not worked. So I turned off Media Encoder and tried to render it again. Well, now I cant even plant AE project because I was stuck on "Connecting with Project", there is not even info about dynamic linking.
I restarted PC, tried to render again, everythin went good, but now after 10 mins of render it happend again, everythin like before.
Now I try to download older version of encoder but maybe anyone know the solutions for those random freezes.

I found solution>

I cleaned cache and lowered ram usage in AE and Encoder. Its goin a little slower now but at least it going to render. 80% dont already so If anyone struggles with this try to lower your ram usage in preferences

been having the same issues since the first 2019 versiosn of Ae+AME. Had the same issues with 2020 versions, and currently I'm having the same issues with the latests 2021 versions as well.

It happens "ramdomly"with either on a Mac OS M1 and a PC .

Lately I am rendering the same project ( just some images that change from time to time) on both machines and the same thing happens: sometimes it renders fine, other times the render gets stuck  and won't progress.. then I check the processing status of the computer and AME shows as " not respondind"... then the only way to cancel the render is to crtl+alt+del / force quit the app.. and most of the time the only way to make AME read the queue again is restarting the computer and cleaning all the cache. Otherwise it will be forever stuck in the dynamic link loading...
