might be obvious, did you try and reimport audio?

I would suggest checking wich version of quicktime you are using... I have heard that QT 7 has a issues with this particular error....

What audio format are you importing before exporting?

yes, this frequently happens with me, though only the first time I try "audio from here forward" or the ram rendering thing, and everytime there after its ok

Those solutions aside, you might also want to export picture and sound separately. Do you have an editing app you can use for synch?
You can alos paste audio tracks in to QT Pro I think/

I'm having the same problem, it will start rendering and, usually around 1 or 2 hours in, I get that error and it crashes.
I'm using AE 6 on a mac but I think I may try just upgrading to 7.

allright guys, I found the problem.... turns out that theres some kind of error when using quicktime7 with AE.
The solution is to uninstall quicktime7 and get your hands on a copy of QT6.... the drawback is that iTunes wont work anymore.... douuugh!
freakin apple! I hate that iTunes & quicktime come together now.... something had to go wrong!
