RENDER STUCKS HALFWAY THROUGH WITHOUT ANY ERRORS

[XLemurii5FC2]

I faced problem while rendering my project (~2:30 mins). It just goes ok halfway of the render but when it goes further it just stops and nothing happens (you can see on screenshot btw it isn't mine I took it from another thread about the same problem where I didn't find any solution to it). So it just stops, stops cpu usage in after effects, stops elapsed time and I can't close my ae ( I can only do it with task manager)

The main problem is that it stuck at different moments and not at the same frame everytime, it can stop at 40% or 55% ( but it's not lower than 40%). I spent so much time doing this really please someone help!

I tried using encoder, aftercodecs, cleaning cache memory, using mercury software only but all of these methods didn't help!

I feel your pain.  Try rendering using the Render Queue as an image sequence.  AE may still fail to render, but at least that part of the comp will have rendered.  You can then clear your cache, restart and render from the point it failed.  It's a workaround but will get you there.

Thanks for the answer! But what should i do next to make it a video and not a png sequence and also i have music in it so... And is there any real solution to this because I don't want to do this everytime or it happened only with this project and with other ones it won't? (All my previous renders were absolutely ok)

It's likely (if your other comps render fine) that's there's just an odd video or effect in this comp that's throwing AE.  Once you have your whole sequence rendered, you can bring this back into AE, overlay it in the original comp (I'd also solo it) and then render this out.  That will give you a video with audio.  It's not an ideal solution, but it gets you a finished video.
