Update: I just spent 3 hrs trying to isolate the issue and for some reason at Frames 870, and frame 2370 (2369 – 2371) it crashes AE (I gave up checking for other bad frames after that). To test this i exported up until frame 870 and let it crash, it did this repeatedly, always stopping at that point. I then navigated to just 1 fram after 870, and exported from there. It was fine from there but as soon as it hit frame 2370 it did the same thing. I have checked all along the timeline for reasons why this error may occur at this point, but all that it is is rendering at those frames are just raw footage. The only thing as of now i can think of is the codec the video used. The project consists of a video of a game recorded using a program called Xfire (It is essentially an ingame IM program with video capture features) and it uses its own dedicated codec. I am not sure if that would attribute itself to my problem. If it could be could you advise on how i could go about converting it to a codec that is AE “Friendly”?
