Export Failed with Exit Code - 1073741819

Help/How To
1

I can’t figure out what I have wrong to get this error.

Under settings, I have Video Mode as HD 1080p 30fps (29.97).

For exporting, I have it set as YouTube mp4, 1920x1080, 29.97, Broadcast Limited, Codec libx265

There are two edited video files I’m using from a dashcam;

  • 2592 x 1944, 15974kbps, 30 fps
  • 1920 x 1080, 9830kbps, 30 fps

When the job fails in shows a timecode on its row in the Jobs panel. There might be something challenging or adverse at that time location that you can disable.

I’ve tried many times and each job is only 1 to 3 seconds. It fails quickly, just after starting it.

It’s for an incident while driving, which happens behind and in front of us, so I’m trying to show both cameras at the same time.

Both have a filter of ‘Size, Position & Rotate’ and ‘Crop: Source’ for the layout.

Sorry, but I am not going to be able to help you much with it because I am too overloaded. You need to do experiments to determine what unbreaks it. Disable filters, even if it the visual results are completely wrong. Then, incrementally enable them. Since the problem occurs at the start, you do not need to disable them initially for all clips over the entire duration. Just enough to determine the problem at the beginning and help it get past the first few seconds.

Understood. Did as you stated and even without the filters I get the same errors at the 0:00 mark. I try just loading one of the videos and exporting.

And? Properties > Convert if needed

I completely redid the video and it worked. I don’t know what the catch was that created the error but I did the filters and editing the same, testing each step, and it worked.
