Error Compiling Movie -1609760768

This seems to have something to do with an h.264 file that has flaws. I have a file that I ran through Media Encoder in an attempt to make it work, but PP still generates an error when it hits this file on the timeline during a render. 

Windows 10 Enterprise 22H2 OS build 19045.5011

Dell Precision 3620 i7-7700 3.6 ghz, 64 gig RAM, GTX 1080 (8 gig)

PP 25.2.0 beta build 6 (and earlier builds)

I can upload the H.264 file if needed)

I had this error repeatedly but localized it to a specific timeline timeframe. I noticed that the clips that appeared in that timeframe had a differrent frame rate AND pixel aspect ratio. I had a weird 'HD anamorphic 1080' setting on the clips' pixel ratio where the Error Code would come up. Selecting the clip from the project clips preview bin (not assembly line), right-click on that clip...Modify/Interpret Footgage. Set the frame rate to what your project is, AND make sure the Pixel Aspect Ratio matches your project - usally the Square Pixels (1.0) should be good.  Though the frame rate is less problematic, it was the pixel aspcet ratio correction that finally did the trick, and no error code after that!

Well, I had the same issue, disabled hardware acceleration and still didn't work. 

For me, removing a text element from the specified part of the timeline solved the issue. I guess you should try something like that too 🙂

In my case, I had multiple FPS footage, and I solved it by exporting the original file into my needed format (size and fps), then replaced the original file in premiere and added back the effects and it worked great.

For someone who have adobe media encoder just add it to queue and problem solved

One Simple Troubleshooting Step For Those Hitting this Common Error

Don't even think about running either Chrome or Spotify while attempting to export. That reduces VRAM, which you often need while exporting. That is, unless you have a GPU with an absurd amount of VRAM - even so....quit these apps, reboot the computer, and then do your export.

I had the same problem. I restarted the programme and ti was fixed.

Hope this helps.

A fix that worked for me was if you look at what time the error is at (should say in the box that pops up with the error) and go to that time in the timeline. Click the clip that is there and press delete. Then hit enter or whatever your rendering button is. Then after its done rendering just ctrl+Z to undo the delete and press your render button again. Worked smoothly

Just updated to CC 2019 and getting this error working on an older version project. If anyone else has this problem while trying to render, nesting the problematic areas worked for me.
