Re: AE is crashing
Thanks Runegan for your response! I am using #include and I don't think the comp resolution or duration is the problem. I ran many tests and I think the problem occur in the objects that I am passing by the function arguments. I am not sure but I think they're kind of not releasing the memory after...
