SUMMARY While attempting to render an animation, the window displaying the loading bar appears, halts at approximately 70%, and then either crashes the application and exports only the frames, or displays a window that states "Could not render animation:Unknown error." and exports a blank, 0 byte document that cannot seem to be opened with any application. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Download the most recent builds of both Krita and Ffmpeg. Unzip the Ffmpeg file. 2. Create an animation (a simple one is recommended for testing purposes), and go to File> Render Animation. Select to export as a video and render as a GIF. 3. Click on the file icon (which displays "Select file name..." when the cursor hovers over it) next to the "FFMpeg: " box, which will bring you to downloads. 4. Open the extracted file "ffmpeg", then the file "bin", and select ffmpeg.exe, after which you will be returned to the "Render Animation" window, now with the address to that file in the "FFMpeg: " box. 5. Click "Ok" OBSERVED RESULT The program either crashes and exports only the frames, or displays an error message and exports an empty file. There does not seem to be any pattern to the outcome. EXPECTED RESULT The file should be exported as a GIF. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: Windows 10, version 1903 macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Did you get FFmpeg from https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ and did you get the 4.2 Windows-64 bit Static build? Can you attach the FFmpeg encode log and palette generation log files which should be in the same folder as the rendered output and the intermediate frame outputs? Can you attach the .kra file animation that you used for this?
