Even though you say you were running only PPro at the time, many unused routines are memory resident. In the past there have been those who advised disabling every startup module they could think of that isn't needed, then restart the computer, thus leaving more memory available for the application. However, this little trick is marginally effective; the amount of memory saved is a fraction of what is really needed.
Another possibility is that once you get to the File > Export > Media > Export Settings window, drag the time handles (below the preview) to include only the first third, finish it, then export again only this time drag to include the middle third, etc. I've never tried this but it seems like it should work. Of course, now you have multiple exported files which you may or may not be able to live with. Also, avoid effects and transitions on the video - plain-jane videos require less memory since effects etc. all need to be memory resident at the time each final video frame is constructed. These are all klutzy work-a rounds, sorry.

I have 2GB. I cut the file down to 2 smaller ones, and it happened again. On another try, it worked. When I was encoding in Encore, the same thing happened again. The last file, not the longst by any means, stalled. On another try it worked fine. joe salerno On 10/11/2010 10:59 AM, Lee Menningen wrote: > > > Are you using a 32-bit version of Pro?
