Yup! That was the fix! Just uninstalling and reinstalling PT 2018. Man, that was an annoying ride lol.

Thanks for replying by the way! Appreciate the help!

I think I found the issue.

So it probably isn’t the render that’s the problem but a Windows-only issue with the new update of ProTools 2018. Uninstalling and reinstalling now to see if that fixes my problem. Fingers crossed!

Yeah, I thought about that after I posted. Changed it to None (Progressive) and still got the same result. Now I’m starting to think this is a problem with ProTools which seems weird cause DNxHD is Avid’s codec so it should work just fine.

Ok, so your question about what drive I render to definitely helped. I can now render a video in DNxHD by having it render to my main C-drive. The only problem now is that when I try to import my video into ProTools, it still freezes up and crashes. So, here are my render settings for the video in DNxHD:

Frame size: High Definition (1920×1080)
Frame rate: 29.970000
Field order: Upper field first
Pixel aspect ratio: 1.000
Video format: Avid DNxHD Codec
Compressed depth: 32 bpp color
Quality: High 100%

Audio:
None/Unchecked

Avid DNxHD Codec Settings:
Color Levels: 709
Alpha: None
Resolutions: 1080p/29.97 DNxHD 100 8-bit

Rendered out, it plays just fine in Quicktime player but when I try to bring the video into ProTools everything goes haywire.
