imovie 11 crashes EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)

During export to youtube iMovie 11 crashes - I've tried it three times now. The exception given in the crash report is EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV). This started after the recent iMovie patch - it did not happen before. Any ideas? I am running a macbook pro - all software up to date!

iMovie '11, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

Try restarting your Mac in Safe mode:

- Shut down your Mac

- Wait until your computer turns off and after that press the Power button

- Right after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key

- Release the Shift key when you see a grey Apple sign and the progress bar below this sign

- Once you see Desktop, start a Disc Utility scan to detect and repair file system errors (don't forget to choose your main hard drive)

- Click on Verify Disc and then, if asked to fix problems, on Repair Disk

- After this, click on Verify Disc Permissions and then on Repair Disc Permissions

- After the process is finished, shut down your Mac and turn it back on after about 30 seconds
