Camera Tracking - Hanging / stalling / not working

[Boris2016]

This has been a problem for a while. AE sometimes takes ages or comepltely grinds to halt when generating a camera with and without detailed analysis. Sometimes it stops at initilizing, sometimes at a random frame, sometimes on solving camera. Sometimes it just goes insanely slow.

The bizare thing is it varies from computer to computer / day to day, AE Beta / AE full version. And to confirm I've had this happen on things I've tracked before with no issue so it's not to do with the spcifics of the clip.

Without any system info and exact details on the footage types, track settings, cache settings and whatnot nobody can tell you much. It may not be specific to the footage, but there could still be some common pattern to the madness.

Hi Mylenium, thanks for the response. It is also sort of my point. This issue has occured for a few years now on at least 5 or six different machines running variuos OS, various versions of AE, and all sorts of the source material. If it was as simple as a single setup causing the issue that would be great as I'd run it on another. I'd be amazed if this issue is only experienced by people in my company hence the forum question.
