I am quite new to the video editing world. I am trying to follow some of tutorial online on how to render a sequence of timelapse photos with Adobe After Effects and export using Media Encoder Queue. Once I add my sequence to the queue and I click on my .H264 link, I am presented with the following screen:
Respectively my video is exported with the same content as the one visible on the screenshot.
Weirdly enough, when I export the video using the Render Queue from After Effects, the file looks perfectly fine. After this, I try to re-export the video using again the Media Encoder Queue, and the preview is rendered correctly as well as the final file.
Now when I close, re-open After Effect, make minor change (like aspect ration for example) and attempt to export the video using the Media Encoder Queue. I am given the following screen(where no preview is available):
A few seconds after I try to export the video, I am getting the following error:

When I Purge All Memory & Disk Cache and clean the Common folder inside AppData, I am back to the position of screenshot 1.
I am using After Effects 2018 Version 15.01(build 73) and Media Encoder 2018 Version 12.01(Build 64) on Windows 10.
My configuration is:
Intel(R) i7-4810MQ 2.80GHz
32GB RAM
GPU NVIDIA Quadro K2100M 2GB
Anyone has any ideas on what might be the issue here?
