    I’ve been getting out of memory and error -108 messages attempting to both render movies and export mp4s. I’ve rebooted (OSX 10.4/11) AE7.01 ) and the problem persists. I’ve tried two different comps to check if the comp itself is corrupt. Any ideas? Is this a bad memory module perhaps?

    First, are your assets high resolution?

    Second, I know it sounds bass ackwards, but you should set your RAM cache down to about 20%. Also, make sure you turn on disk caching! I know, you’re thinking “I’m running out of memory, and he wants me to turn it down?!” Yes. Bass ackward, but it works. We do a lot of 5k here, and it’s a major frustration, but this is the only way we can get AFX to render at all…
