System out of Application

I've been trying to export this video for the past week and a half now and I just can't seem to be able to because I keep getting this message. It always pops up around 70%-80% export completion. It's a roughly 20-25min video and I've never had problems exporting videos of that length. I'm currently exporting a 5min video just to see if it's an issue with those files or not. 

I've tried everything I can think of. I made space on my MacBook Air, I have 119.86GB of space avalaible. On my Seagate Ultra Touch I have 765GB of space. I reset my preferences in Premier Pro. Not sure what else to do besides maybe re-edit this video from scratch. Also, when I'm exporting Premier takes up around 46GB of memory when I check my activity monitor. Is that a normal amount or is that too high? As I'm typing this the 5min test video is only taking up 3.85 GB, granted I know shorter video means shorter memory but still.


Anyways, does anyone have any solutions for this problem I'm experiencing? I'll appreciate any help i can get.

So i ended up exporting the video on my brothers MacBook Pro and it worked perfectly! So my video is FINALLY exported, but the issue still remains on my end. Next video I try to export will probably give me the same issue. From now on should I resize all my clips with Shutter Encoder to save space and have a smoother exporting time?


I'm glad you were able to export your edit on your brother's laptop. That certainly suggests that your laptop is the issue here.

If you're working with a less powerful machine, optimizing encoding early in the process is really helpful. Resizing your footage and converting variable frame rates before you begin editing will help significantly.

Cheers,
Paul

Can you provide a screenshot of your export settings and tell us the specs for your Mac Mini? Specifically, the processor, graphics card, and memory.

This information will help us troubleshoot the issue more effectively.

I'm not a very technical person, but here's all the info I got. Also, I took my 24min video and split it in half. My plan was to export a 11min and another 11min and then take those two videos into one sequence and export the full 24min, incase it was an issue with a corrupt file or something. The first 11min video exported without issue, the other half gave me the same "out of memory" also around the 70% completion part. My guess now is that maybe one of the clip files near the end is corrupt? My next option is to try and export the video on my brothers MacBook Pro. Anyways, here are the images.

Sorry, just one more question. I'm experimenting with Shutter Encoder so that I know what to do with future videos. I take a video file, I go to "Choose Function", click "Apple ProRes" and "422", go to "Scale" and set it to "1920x1080", then go to "Advanced Features" and "Confirm by Blending" and set it to 60fps. I then press "Start Function" to start confirming my video clips. I took a 1.89GB file and followed those settings and got a 22.3GB file, so I actually got a bigger file instead of a smaller compressed file. Where did I go wrong in that process?

are you using any third party plugins?

did you try to delete render files from sequence and clean media cache?

did you try to move the files locally and export from there?

As far as I know I don't believe I'm using any third party. I didn't know I could delete render files so I might look into that. When I reset my preferences I also deleted my media caches, so I did that but still no luck. I haven't tried moving them to my laptop, I've been doing it from my hard drive. I will try that too and see if it works!

Try creating a new project and import the old one into it.

I tried this, kinda. I split my video into two 11min parts so that once exported I can just take those two back into a project and export the full 24min. The first half exported without issue but the second gave me the same message. My guess is one of the clips I used near the end is corrupt.
