  • After Effects only Renders One Frame of Video

    I’m in a time crunch, so I’m gonna try and make this quick. I have a lower third which I’ve created in AE. I copied and altered a comp which I created yesterday and rendered successfully. Now, any time I try and render, it gives me the SWOD, then after about 3 minutes, it renders the first frame of the comp only.

    I’ve tried a new project, I’ve tried new comps. I’ve tried new resolutions. I’ve even tried rendering other past comps which were outputted successfully. Suddenly, NOTHING will render out of AE.

    I’m desperate. Anybody have any ideas?

    Do you have multi-processing turned on, first thing I would do is turn that off. Also, I don’t know what SWOD means?

    screen-grab your render queue with render settings twirled down so we can see how many frames AE’s been told to render.

    My guess is you have WORK AREA ONLY turned on (I hate that thing) and your work area set to a very small length.
