Subject: PSA: Bug with unresolvable networked render queue items
To: After Effects Mail List <AE-List@media-motion.tv>

I just reported a bug to Adobe but wanted to pass it along in case it
affects any of you.

Lately I've been starting projects on OSX in the office, and attempting to
finish them on my PC at home. Every time I've had maddeningly long delays
when changing focus away from After Effects and back, or when saving. The
whole app freezes for around 60 seconds every time, even for very simple
projects.

My gut kept telling me it must be linked footage, paths not lining up, etc.
But the error persisted even with *no* imported footage items, just empty
comps.

It turns out the culprit was an old render queue job. In the queue was a
successful render completed by the Mac in the office which had been saved
to \\10.0.0.1\share\file.mov. Removing that completed entry from the queue
fixes the problem.

I guess After Effects decides to parse the list of completed render jobs'
output paths every time you shift focus back, and will happily freeze for
60 seconds while it waits for a network timeout.

Anyway - I've reported to Adobe, but I wanted to share in case it helps any
of you out of a bind.

Cheers!
