Okay, a little progress, the sample rates didn’t match indeed. The audio sample rates were 48 kHz, not 44 as set. But still, didn’t start rendering. Open GL is turned off and all the files are .wav format.

Here are the settings from the log file –

Check and check, nothing helped. Any point uploading the hole thing for someone to have a look? Then again, that wouldn’t help really.

[Silver Adamson]

I’ll have another look at the files, and i’ll have another go at the output settings. Yeamh, i’d be happy if it would start rendering at all and give me an error file, but it won’t. I tried deleting the two video footage files before, but it didn’t help if i remember correctly. But as i said, i’ll give it another shot.

[Silver Adamson]

Yeah, i’ve tried that, and as i’ve said many times, rendering without the audio everything is okay, but when i try to render audio with the comp or just as a single file, it won’t start rendering. I can’t seem to imagine how that is caused by any of the video files. But thank you.

[Silver Adamson]

Well the audio format is PCM, if that’s what i should be looking for here. Not really familiar with this, i tried eliminating different parts, and the audio is really the only thing seeming to cause this glitch.

I don’t know, could it be in the settings? I’m using all the defaults although.

[Silver Adamson]

Nope, all the audio files are .wav format and off the Designer Sounds FX collection, which i recently acquired.

I’m continuously trying to solve the problem myself, but if anyone has any ideas, i’d be most thankful.
