failed rendering

[sasukeee]

Hello, yet again my rendering keeps failing for no reason, last time it worked because i used the format mov andI used mov again and it didnt work this time and im not sure what to do anymore, the only effects ive used is motion blur, motion title and gaussian blur and thats all!

Its really annoying me because i cleared my cache on after effects and yet still it doesnt work!! this is nothing like heavy editing, its really really ANNOYING !! please help meee

[Byron Cortez]

You are using .mov but with what codec?

[sasukeee]

like instead of mp4, i used mov but to me it appeared as quicktime

[Byron Cortez]

Well, now try to export to one of these codecs that I point to you in my screeshot.

[sasukeee]

as in the render queue or project?

[Byron Cortez]

Of course, your project render it in Ae as render queue.

[sasukeee]

ill give it a try

[sasukeee]

didnt work

[Byron Cortez]

Did you also try Add to Media Encoder Queue?

[sasukeee]

i tried doing that but it wont let me even tho i do have media encoder queue

According to what I see in your dialog box is that you do not have AME installed. You also have very little RAM allocated for Adobe applications, just 1GB. Put there where it says "RAM reserved for other applications" in 1.5 GB, not in 5.9 GB.

Close Ae, open it again. Now try again to render.

It rendered only half but thank you

How much free space is available on your drives?

[Martin_Ritter]

Installed RAM 6.9GB? Oh dear!

But since it worked once, it's worth the troubleshooting:

- Clear cache

- Is there any error message when rendering?

- Can you render preview at full resolution and with all effects (especially motion blur)? With only this bit of RAM, you might just get a couple of seconds, but it would be good to know, if preview is rendering.

- Render everything as image sequence (PNG for instance). Does this work? (You can convert it to every movie format later)

- What did you change from the last time to now? I noticed failed renders when I have more effects then RAM.

- Can you render this on a different, more powerful machine?

- Can you render this if you deactivate some of the effects (start with the blur)

I accidentally changed the ram, what should it normally be?

[Byron Cortez]

You have very little RAM, but with that little bit, follow the steps I indicated above with respect to RAM so that you give more to Adobe applications not to the system.

According to what I see in your dialog box is that you do not have AME installed. You also have very little RAM allocated for Adobe applications, just 1GB. Put there where it says "RAM reserved for other applications" in 1.5 GB, not in 5.9 GB.

Close Ae, open it again. Now try again to render.

my pc?

[Dave_LaRonde]

You only have 8 GIGS of RAM?  That's ALL?  Well, It's no wonder you're having problems!  GET MORE MEMORY!

[sasukeee]

What should i change it into then

[Dave_LaRonde]

Get at least 16 gigs of RAM.  More if you like to have a lot of applications open at once.

[sasukeee]

how do i do that
