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
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.)

There is another thread related to this "Failed 3x Server" message. Doesn't look encouraging for any of us who are suffering from this.
Same thing. Boing - Compressor (which never breaks) has broken.
Of course I'm on deadline!!
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?
H.264 MOV to Pro Res no strange Codecs here. In fact it works on some clips and not others of the same shoot.
Same story here. In my case it worked earlier on clips shared from the same timeline. Why would it work one time and not the other?
