Generate Optimized Media Crash

Whenever i click on Generate optimized media it takes time before it loads and start the process, but whenever it starts it stops at 2%, 4% or 6% it has never gone above that. It could be that the video is about 2 hours long or maybe not.
The specs on my PC is quite modern and should be able to work really well.

Would really appreciate any kind of help.

please post the full specs of your system and file type you're trying to manipulate.

Specs:

Intel Core i5 6600k
Geforce GTX 970
Ram: 8GB
MSI Z170A gaming motherboard

Video filetype:
MP4-Video

can you try to convert the mp4 outside of resolve to DNxHD (just for test)?
