Movie Studio Platinum 15 - crash when selecting 'Render as'

Hi!

I've been having issues with a particular project I've been working on for several hours, the project is done and I wish to render it, but when I select 'Render as' everything freezes, before crashing. I've tried rendering other projects, and that's worked just fine. But for some reason, with this project the program crashes before even the 'Render as' option menu shows up.

As said earlier, it seems to only affect this particular project, and I have no idea what might be causing it. Everything looks fine on the timeline.

Help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

Setup:

GTX 1070

Ryzen 1700 @3.8GHz

32Gb DDR4

Just before rendering, and every two hours while editing, save, close, and re-open the project. This flushes the buffers and usually fixes the problem completely.

No, that doesn't help. I've tried many things, like turning GPU acceleration on and off, creating proxy video files, increasing render threads and even copying the clips over to a new project, none of it works. Also turning the program on and off doesn't work either.

My guess would be a corrupt file on the timeline. Process of elimination is the only way to find out.
