You’re trying to export a 5034x7016 image, which is quite a huge resolution for video, and not widely supported. I’d suggest using the Resize option to make it smaller (half that size, 2517x3508, should be fine).

If you really want it to be that large, openh264 doesn’t allow it, but x264 might. The error when trying to use x264 suggests your FFmpeg doesn’t have it, you can confirm that by checking the .log file that would be saved where you tried to save the video (if it says “Unknown encoder ‘libx264’” at the end).
