Warp Stabilizer Crashes After Effects

Hi
I'm having issues with After Effects and it's Warp Stabilizer.
I export files from lightroom and want them to be stitched together as a timelapse in After Effects, to be encoded in Adobe Media Encoder in different formats. This works great, but as soon as I try to add the warp stabilizer to remove slight camera shakes, After Effects freezes at the first frame (0%), as displayed in the picture above, and will stay there forever. If I try to abort/cancel the effect, the whole program crashes. I tried different formats, but it keeps crashing. (I usually use TIFF, but it also doesn't work with JPG or DNG).
After Effects as well as my Graphic Card Driver are up to date, and it used to work a few days ago. I have no clue why it keeps crashing...
Any idea what might be the problem?
Best
