Root component Timeout

If you get an error message:

A delayRender() "Loading root component" was called but not cleared after 28000ms
A delayRender() "Loading root component" was called but not cleared after 28000ms

You have specified an entry point that does not call registerRoot().

In most of the templates, the entry point is src/index.ts.

  • Maybe you have specified the list of compositions (src/Video.tsx in most templates) instead.
  • Maybe you have specified the filename of a component that you want to render.

Ensure that you are passing the file that calls registerRoot() as the entry point.

In the CLI, the entry point is passed as an argument to the render command:

npx remotion render [entry-point]
npx remotion render [entry-point]

In the bundle() and deploySite() Node.JS apis, you pass the entry point via the entryPoint property.
