render failure

Postby draudio2u » Sat Feb 04, 2023 00:29

Hello,
First time I am seeing the error "Failed to create media from rendered data" . I was just using Cedar retouch as I always do and never seen this before. Anyone have experience with this error?
Thank you

Hi,

You possibly have 'use unique filenames' de-selected - Renovator has the same issue if rendering when not using unique filenames.

Cheers,
Tom

Amazing to me that PMX cannot simply use the File Save (Overwrite), SaveAs standard used in Windows for the last 25 years in its file writing operations.

I think an early design requirement was to never perform any operation which could involve data loss - particularly sound files, so attempting to overwrite a file from Pyramix often results in the program locking up, or crashing. At least you got the polite message...
