Default "Not rendering, ETA infinity"

What does this mean?

It means something is wrong.
What/how are you trying to render?
mp3? Do you have lame_enc.dll in the Reaper dir?

It's actually a 24 bit BWF time selection

It waits for a minute and then renders fine

Actually, this is still happening, 9 years later. Just destroyed 2 hours of work, because the autosave also didn't save anyhting at all.


So can we please have at least an autosave operation just before rendering starts?
This is not the fisrt time it happened and destroyed really a LOT of hard work. Most of the times it works, but sometimes not (when there is this one special plugin involved I haven't identified yet) and then BOOM everything is gone.

And NO, it doesn't render fine after a minute in my case, it's all gone, even after waiting half an houre.

At least there is one workaround, "online rendering" which takes the full length of the song. But it would be still nice to be able to find out which plugin causes the infinite rendering time

I created a custom action that first saves the project, and then opens render window.
It happens to me sometimes... render hangs... ETA infinity... rendering a normal Wav file

To me it happens quite often when I render to a quicktime file. It's hit and miss. Sometimes it will work, sometimes it won't.

I have now experienced a situation where, when rendering lots (800) small files, it tells me that it is not rendering and that ETA is infinity, yet it renders everything perfectly fine.

Reported as a nitpick here:
