Update on AE Effects Error problem.

I’m working in FCP4.
The previous version of this movie sequence exported successfully onto the hard drive a few days before. I went back and did some tweeking and perfected a second cut. Ever since, I’ve been trying to export this new version onto my hard drive with repeated failure.
(AE Effects Error: Out of memory rendering “Title Crawl”)

I have 40+GB in my external hard drive. So I know that’s not the issue.
To pin-point the problem, I thought I’d exported the movie sequence in 3 parts. So I nested each section as a single movie and exported them into 3 Quicktime movie files onto the hard drive. I was hoping to find the error message in that particular section so I can fix it. To my great frustration, they all exported beautifully without any error messages. All three of them!
So in theory, if I can slice my movie into 3 sections and export them successfully, my sequence as a whole does not have any problems. Then why can’t I export them as a complete 72 minute movie?

Is it length? I’ve exported a previous version before and the same length was not a problem.

Is it problems with text generators? Then how come when I exported them in separate sections they were without problem?

This is a mystery to me and I can’t seem to find an answer.
Anyone out there with a similar problem?
I need enlightenment.

Thanx,

Thanks Ben, I’m now trying to export in small sections of sequence just to check which part got corrupted. Thanks for the help.

I’m in FCP4. I only have FCP opened at the time. The sequence I’m exporting is a revised version. The previous version exported without a problem. I’ve also copied it onto a New Project and exported it from there. Still the same. I just don’t know what I did wrong.
