Jesus! Yesterday I've put a small animation to render, the scene has like 4 objects (with a Phoenix simulation) and it rendered fine 20 out of 400 frames and at frame 21 it got stuck. I woke up this morning hoping to see the animation done and it's a disaster. i never imagined it can start to render fine some frames and then suddenly and randomly to get stuck at scene parsing.
I am using Teamviewer and Corona 8 hotfix 1.
it happened before but I didn't pay attention ona a different scene. The "fix" was to click on the MAX's render window and move it a bit.
Yeah, it seems quite a few people have the issue.
Since then I've been setting alarms to check systems to see if they were still rendering. Even on the ones it does happen with, it doesn't happen all the time.
It's nice to have another thing to worry about.
I'm trying to determine which systems it affects so I can put certain jobs on those ones.
I made this post last week thinking it was BatchCam:
https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=37083.0A temporary workaround I've thought of is for someone to make a windows app that moves a foreground window a few pixels every x minutes.
That, in theory would be a hack for the issue but no idea who could make that.

In your scene were you using forest pack/railcone? Were you using remote desktop software, or have any installed?
