I have been experiencing the same issue. I was experiencing similar crashes in 2018 as well - albeit randomly. It is a showstopper for AE and Decklink.
I have always found that AE and Mercury Transmit/Decklink have had a tenuous relationship:
- using BMD decklink with mercury transmit will work sometimes and not other times with no repeatable way to troubleshoot. Generally a restart of AE will fix the issue - but it's a pain.
- output scaling to the decklink raster size behaves in an odd fashion, again, sometimes it works and other times is does not.
- there is a significant delay in reactivity. As an example, changing positions of elements within a comp will be significantly delayed on on the mercury transmit/decklink monitor. Another example: when previewing a comp, mercury transmit/decklink will continue playing the loop long after you have moved on to other business.
My workaround, at this point, is to output displayport from my display card to my broadcast monitor (DM240). It works like a charm. I would not trust colour from my display card but it is a rock solid from a getting stuff done perspective. When I move on to Resolve, I turn off the output to the DM240 in the Nvidia control panel.
