Render progress stops at 63%; elapsed time continue to incresase

I have re-installed movie studio 17.0, problem persists. I was rendering tiny piece (less than 60 sec of 45 min video to Internet HD mp4). Progress was fast up to this point. I have rendered multimedia video successfully (SD). I am at a loss at what else to do. I am on Windows 11 dell inspiron 5415 amd Ryzen 7 5700U with Radeon Graphics 80 GB memory 512 GB SSD. I need to render entire video HD. Complex project. Suggestions welcome!

Check the media at the 63% point on the timeline - it could be that there is something wrong with the media event at that 63% point. Though a long time ago, I've had it happen and a corrupt video event was the problem.

Which buildnumber and version of Movie Studio do you use?
What is on the timeline at 63%?
What is your renderlocation?
What exact rendertemplate do you use?

Renderlocation is local OneDrive folder

I had a project that kept failing once and it turned out it was an event either didn't end or didn't start on a frame boundary (don't remember which).

@Dexcon I don’t see anything wrong with the media. Last night it was stuck at different point. Renders until… CPU? Memory?? But I don’t see anything obvious.

@Jetdv Thank you. It maybe something like this. I’ve noticed that all audio events doesn’t always fit into the frames. Some of media used are downloaded internet, and others recorded on my laptop or iphone. I will investigate!

I’ve noticed that all audio events doesn’t always fit into the frames.

It won't be the audio events which need quantitisation (frame boundaries) - it will be video events which are likely to be the problem. I'm not sure about Movie Studio, but in Vegas Pro of the time, if you click on Options and then click Shift-Preferences an added menu option is "Internal". In its search field type in "quan" and the quanitise options should appear. Change FALSE to TRUE and than hit OK. Any unquantitised events on the timeline - video or audio - should then appear with a red edge in either the L or R side. Making sure that you've got quantise checked in the timeline menu, make sure that all video events are fully frame aligned without any red edges.

@Dexcon Many red frames!! Thank you so much! Hopefully this sort it.

@Elize-Swart
Did you also tried to use this Magix AVC rendertemplate for rendering?
