Out of nowhere Compressor started crashing with this message. 
Ever since, I have deleted and re-installed my OS and Compressor itself. Tried a number of different ways to export and import the files, and nothing has worked.
I'm Running a iMac 5K 4GHz i7 with 24gb Memory. 10.10.5
Q: Compressor 4.2.1 Failed: 3x crash service down
EditCode simply says that it is a message that the transcoding process failed (which you undoubtedly know).
Possibly caused by a third party plug-in or codec.
Also suggests drumming Pro Maintenance Tools Crash Analyzer to see what it reports as a suggested fix. (PMT is available as a trial download at the Digital Rebellion site.)

Yes, it's clearly an Apple Issue, and I'm still having trouble getting clips converted, particularly in a batch transcode. I even talked to a high up manager in the Final Cut Pro department, and he had no idea even after the issue happened to him. He blamed it on a corrupted clip. I said if it's corrupted how come this issue spans across many projects?
