AE concurrent task error

hi i’m getting this error on our rendernodes when rendering in AE 6.5 with concurrent tasks set to 4.



Error Message

Exception during render: Renderer returned non-zero error code, 1





Slave Log

n not render for aerender. Another instance of aerender, or another script, may be running; or, AE may be waiting for response from a modal dialog, or for a render to complete. Try running aerender without the -reuse flag to invoke a separate instance of After Effects

Thanks in advance.

We’ve seen this error in the past, although I don’t think it was related to rendering concurrent tasks. I posted this error on the After Effects support forums over a month ago and I still haven’t heard anything back.



My gut reaction is that After Effects is crashing for whatever reason (could be memory or plug-in related). Do you get this error when rendering with 2 or 3 concurrent tasks, or even with just 1 task at a time? Do you run into this problem a lot when rendering concurrent tasks, or does it just seem to be cropping up with this particular AE project? Just trying to learn a little more about the problem. :slight_smile:
