    Here is how I fix these kinds of errors in windows. First, save anything in any adobe products that is currently not saved. Seconds, open task manager and kill any of the myriad adobe processes that are currently running, htis inclused CC, and anything else infesting your computer. Open up media encoder again and Reset Status on the export you were doing.

    This has fixed any of these errors 100% of the time since I made the mistake on upgrading from 2014 to 2020.

    My experience is that everythign runs slower, uses more memory (as in 2-3x more memory) and has a lot of errors. The rewrite they did for 2015 completely trashed AE and they don't seem to be capable of fixing it.

    around timecode: 33~~

    Is this the timecode it actually gave?

    Otherwise you need to fix what ever is on the timeline at the given time; can be anything.
