  You’d have to tell us what codec you’re trying to use.

  This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”

  I’m using the h.264 codec. The raw footage is m2t but i deinterlaced it rendered as avi using the lagarith lossless codec. Then did a 3:2 pulldown in AE. Cropped to 1280×720(original size was 1440×1080)in the render settings, rendered again with lagarith. So there are none of those formats in the comp. I just updated my Quicktime 7.4 to 7.5 but that didn’t help.

  I remember something similar happening a year or so ago. A new version of quicktime was released to make movies rented through itunes more secure. This made rendering anything over 10 sec result in an error. I am having difficulties rendering and I’m using the animation codec.
