Render crashes
Hey there,
I’ve been looking all over and have tried several things, but my AE seems to lock up (no pop up dialog msg) when I have QT installed.
I’ve tried downgrading QT to 7.3, but the only time I can get AE to not crash during a render (RAM or batch)is by uninstalling QT. I am running AE 7, upgrading is currently not an option, unfortunately.
Mem/Cache settings are:
Max Mem usage 120% = 2.0 GB
Max RAM Cache 60% = 1.2 GB
Prevent DLL Address Space Fragmentation (never heard this mentioned but I’m thorough)Enable OpenGL is checked bc there was no improvement unchecked.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I’ve been un/re installing QT for 3 days now. Any leads appreciated.

Thanks Dave!
Strangely enough, I adjusted the secret settings to purge after 50 frames and I’m fine now, or so it seems.
I have no idea why, if this was the solution, Quicktime would have any bearing on the success of my renders, but I un/reinstalled so many times I can’t believe it was a coincidence.
Is there something deep in QT that is hogging memory AE is trying to use?
Computers… hate figuring them out, yet chained to them for life 🙂

Weird… I did hear about it and thought I had checked and confirmed I was on 7.4.1, however now I wonder if I had been hallucinating as I’m rendering fine with 7.4.1 and untouched/reverted Secret menu settings.
As I said… computers… yeesh. Nothing else could make me feel this doubtful about my own knowledge than these lovely little boxes.
Thanks again for the help though Dave.

Do you have any QT files as source video? Or any MP3 audio files in your project?
