When rendering videos in Photoshop on macOS, the progress bar stops at 50% and doesn't progress any further.

If this folder is present, open every subfolder in that location and check for a file called Trace Database.txt. If this file is present and it is empty, delete it.

Note:
If the video rendering issue occurs again, repeat the workaround steps.
