And then additionally (as a slightly separate bug), if I click into one of the folders to select a new Video location or the FFmpeg folder. When I cancel the window and got back to the main Export Timelapse window, it’s frozen. I can’t close it, minimise, click any buttons on it. I have to kill Krita and reopen it.
Exporting as GIF, Matroska, and WebM works, just not the two MP4 options.
I am just guessing that the codec required for MP4 is not bundled in to ffmpeg. Where did you get the ffmpeg from is it from fedora repositories. Sometimes the ffmpeg built in distribution do not have proprietary patent encumbered formats
Fedora cannot distribute some codecs due to patents and restrictions hence the ffmpeg in fedora repositories do not support some export options.
When installing nobara there is an option to download the codecs. The website states
Video Codecs :
– A post-installation codec installer asks the user if they would like to enable and install various important codecs and related packages for out of the box easy video encoding and decoding/playback.
Have you done this after you installed nobara?
Also in next release ffmpeg will be built into Krita (for safe non patent encumbered codecs) so this issue of installing fmpeg won’t be annoying people.
