I'm new to 7.0 pro and I'm having some serious exporting problems. I have a project with about 30 layers, nothing too complicated... DV NTSC. When I try to export or render I get one of a few errors. "unspecified drawing error" or "out of memory" I'm running on a dual-core PC with WindowsXP, 4 gigs of ram. I've allocated the maximum or 3 gigs to AE.
I have tried rendering in the render queue (DV setting, lossless) and I get an error almost every time. I have also tried exporting as Quicktime animation, full resolution. When that does work, the video does not play back right. I am doing chroma keying, and when it plays back, it looks like the screen is split in fourths. 1/4 is not keyed like it should be, 1/4 is keyed correctly, and the bottom half is missing the top layer and is only the background. It's like a perfect + in the screen. It goes in and out like that and skips. The comp is 2:30.
I have tried opening a new project, importing the composition, and same problem. I'm afraid something is corrupt.
I started a new job doing video for a website, and I look like a complete jackass because I can't get this solved. I usually work on a Mac, but my boss bought an Adobe Suite for PC. Any help would be appreciated.
Also, any thing to make renders and exports faster would REALLY help. We're on a tight schedule. Thanks.
