Error compiling movie - 1609629690 - Unable to produce frame - H264 - Using Pan and Zoom Effect

Hi! First post, wanted to share my experience with a rendering error I've been receiving since the last Adobe Rush update (v1.5.40) for Pan / Zoom .

 

My Surface Pro's sad specs:

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1056G7 CPU @ 1.30GHz 1.50 Ghz

16.0 GB RAM

64-bit OS

Windows 10

 

This is my 5th video in the same format, nothing has changed EXCEPT Rush was updated to a newer version, one that allows the Pan / Zoom feature's start and endpoints to be adjusted (FINALLY!) -- So naturally I decided to Pan / Zoom every image in my sequence.

 

This increased my render time by a factor of 1000% -- but that's not my issue. At the same point every time in the render Rush would stall. Eventually I would get the following error message and Rush would need to be force stopped before work could again commence:

 

Error compiling movie.

Accelerated Renderer Error

Unable to produce frame.

Writing with exporter: H.264

Writing file type: H264

Around timecode: 2:51:18 - 2:52:04

Rendering at offset: 171.600 seconds

Component: H.264 of type Exporter
Selector: 9
Error code: -1609629690

 

There are a number of solutions on here but none of them have panned out for me. I tried reducing the quality of the export (❌); deleting the asset and re-inserting all effect elements (❌); going back to previous version of Rush (❌); esnuring enough disc space on drive (❌); and finally, I went back to the newer version of Rush -- v1.5.40 -- and looked at the Pan / Zoom effect on the image following where my stall occurs and I noticed something: a glitching out / black screen when I examine the image while the Pan / Zoom side bar is open.

 

Adobe Rush did not like how small I made the starting point of the zoom. Who knows if this is my machine or a bug, but if you're running into this issue and you've been using Pan / Zoom, this is what fixed it for me:

 

✅ Make the starting or end point of Pan / Zoom larger and try to render again.

    Hi everyone. Same problem and same solution.

    Increase the size of the START and END points. When too small, export will fail.
    Try different sizes until it works:

    Too small
    Big enough

    Hi,

    I read these posts and have an idea that may work for the community. Try resizing images before importing them into Rush. The raw images are often too large for processing on a phone or an underpowered computer. Try resizing them to no more than twice the frame size. This is an old rule of thumb for all editing applications, even Premiere Pro. Try it and let me know if that helps you.

     

    Thanks,
    Kevin

      If you are on a Mac, I always thought iMovie was a good equivalent to Premiere Rush.

      I can confirm that in May 2022 I am experiencing the same issue and am happy to report the workaround does still work.

      @Boondoge has the only solution that works. It is now 2022 and the same problem is still there. If the Start or End Points are too small, it will crash the render.

          Same issue overhere. After updating to the latest version I am experiencing all kind of export problems. It started using the Pan/Zoom option but also exporting still images with music fails sometimes.

           

          The option Pan/Zoom is really great to make it all look a bit more vivid but not being able to export anymore is really anoying.

          Did some search work and found some stuff about the GPU, tried to uninstall the current drivers, update the drivers assign a simple windows driver to the graphics card but all without a result.

           

          Please fix, I am using Premiere Rush every weekend to prepare video's/images with music.

          Intell i7-4750HQ

          8GB Ram

          Nvidia GeForce GTX 950M

          Hi there!

          Thank you for trying the troubleshooting steps on your own.

          • Have you tried exporting the video through other presets?
          • Also, to isolate the issue. Can you try removing Pan/Zoom effect and see if that improves performance?

          Let us know.

          I have much the same problem.  After using PZ on a single frame I was forced to use Task Manager to cancel Rush using Task Manager.  This happened several times with various rendering settings.  I followed the advice from Boondoge, increasing the start size, and I was able render a final product.  (Thanks Boondoge).  The rendering was very slow for about 2-3 minutes, then all of a sudden the pace picked up and the rest of the video rendered smoothly.  I can confirm that by removing PZ on that single frame, rendering returned to normal.
