I really appreciate your help Dave! You’ve helped me a lot on this forum, haha

I finally got it working in a .tif sequence though it probably would have worked in any other format at this point. Twixtor was applied to several frames that caused the whole comp within Ae to fail. Thanks for all of the advice! It was very helpful.

Would the apostrophe’s or alternate character (é) cause problems? I wouldn’t think it would crash a whole rendering process…

I rendered to an external hard drive with the same failure. I’ll be trying to render to a sequence like Mark suggested as I do have some 3D layers I believe in my footage. I’ve included the last error on my error log below if anyone can point me in the right direction. Much appreciated!

I’m trying this now by exporting to an external hard rive. The exportation time also seems to be much shorter now.

If this is the case, what would a corrupted drive mean for me? Would I replace it or in the future would I avoid rendering onto the drive?

[Brent Austin]

Thanks, I didn’t know this. I’m still experiencing some hiccups when previewing so media encoder should be able to convert well enough.

SOLVED!
I uninstalled and reinstalled the root on my HDD with all of my presets already been moved over. I came across the same problems I had so it wasn’t a drive problem and not an Ae problem so I checked where the preview kept stopping at. I deleted the clip at that timestamp and it worked perfectly fine. I checked back on the effects for the deleted clip and RSMB was the root of the problem. It must have triggered an unknown error when accompanied with the other effects I had for the clip. All seems to be fine now, just have to be careful where I use RSMB now!

Appreciate the help!

I ran some tests on my hard drives and no problems arose. I did switch from my HDD to my SSD recently and that could be why this is happening, maybe Ae doesn’t like my SSD? So switching back to my HDD shouldn’t be a problem, it’s just that my current project is at risk of not functioning properly because Ae plugins/ preset files will be in a different location. Am I safe to simply copy over the Adobe Ae source file from my SDD to HDD or will I have to uninstall and reinstall on the other drive and paste all of my plugin files manually? I’ve done this before but it’s a pain to do and any command prompt scripts seem to be extremely tedious to mess with.
