Hello, I am a new user of krita! I want learn how to make a animation, and I did. Then I listened to some suggestions on Youtube, I downloaded this ffmge,(I just find this window builds)
I installed and used ffmge according to the above method to change the file extension of the animation I made, so I can upload it to Google classroom; but krita is automatically closed immediately, and I only got a text, and a video of up to 0 seconds And there is only one white screen; and I use other way like this
and it is just give me this setenceā¦and give me nothingā¦
I am doing my NCEA, and I really love krita, so please help me to solve this problem! Thank you very much!
(This is for Windows on a 64-bit computer, which you probably have.)
Unzip (Extract) it and store the resulting folder in some convenient location.
The krita manual has a section about rendering animations here:
If you follow the instructions there and try again you should find that it works.
Please try this and come back with more information if you have any problems.
Thank you for your reply. I re-downloaded ffmpeg using the link you gave me, and used kritaās render video, but I still have the same problem; after pressing the OK button, krita closed itself, and then these files and a 0 second appeared Bell mp4.
It seems you have chosen to render out to Both which produces a .png image sequence and also an .mp4 video file. This is ok but for an animation with a large number of frames then you will have a large number of image sequence files which probably wonāt be of much use to you.
I suggest that you select Video instead of Both.
The two image sequence files should be called frame0000.png and frame0001.png.
I donāt understand why the second one is called frame-001.png. That is strange.
It looks like there was a serious problem after two frames were produced.
Was any error message shown before krita closed itself?
How many frames are there in your animation?
What do you mean by āBell .mp4ā? I see a file called āStart.mp4ā.
The file called log_encode.log may contain useful information but may have lots of text so can you post a link to that via a file sharing service (Dropbox, a pastebin, or whatever you prefer to use).
When you say, āafter pressing the OKā button, do you mean the āOKā button on the āRender Animation - Kritaā window?
It would be useful to post a screenshot of that window before you press the OK button.
In the āRender Animation - Kritaā window, have you set FFMpeg to point to the location of the recently downloaded ffmpeg.exe?
Can you post a screenshot of your entire krita window with Start.kra open and with the Timeline docker, Animation docker and Layers docker visible? This is always useful to see.
Iām really embarrassed, I discovered the reason! Because when I exported the video, I didnāt set the start and end time of the time! My krita was automatically closed before without any error message; but when I set the time, the problem was solved. Thank you for your help! If you need that txt. files I can upload it!
This kind of mistake is very common with new users who are not familiar with animation rendering in ktita.
There is no problem so there is no need to provide the log_encode.log file.
