Information technology'due south twenty frames at 30 fps. I play it in the Movies & TV app and it'south the right length simply totally black. I have 64-bit FFMPEG installed in my Program files and it seems to exist working fine. I gave Krita the location of the FFMPEG file on my computer besides. When I export it as a gif, though, information technology works fine. Is there a fix to this?

It'due south a common problem of Windows basic applications not having proper codecs. Unfortunately there is I believe a problems that makes you not able to choose "baseline" option in Krita export dialog (you can choose information technology, but it is ignored later), so ffmpeg uses the newer MP4 codecs that aren't included in the Windows bones movie applications. VLS and MPC-HC are usually (I retrieve) able to play information technology though. Workaround: export using console or using panel options in Krita export dialog (not sure if the second way works though). Or use VLC/MPC-HC to play the animation. Or download Krita Plus, non sure if the set is in there but it'south worth a effort (consign with a baseline option and try to play in this Movies & Idiot box app). codecs = petty programs that codes and decodes the video formats, necessary to be able to tape, create or play the video in a specific format.

The proffer by tymond to try a different media role player is a practiced one and VLC is a good choice. Is your ffmpeg installation something that came with your Os or did y'all install it yourself? I'd recommend that yous get and use the latest stable (4.1) static build from ffmpeg.org. You can follow the links from there or go straight to https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ and download information technology and use that. My initial video rendering problems were all fixed when I used the latest stable static build of ffmpeg. Please let us know how y'all get on with these suggestions and good luck.

My initial video rendering problems were all fixed when I used the latest stable static build of ffmpeg. Delight let us know how you get on with these suggestions and good luck. I installed ffmpeg myself manually, and I used the 20181226-d702600 build, not the regular four.1. Could this have something to do with it? btw, Win Media role player and Win Movie maker tin't play information technology either. Should I try downloading VLC or handbrake? And tin can they catechumen GIF to mp4? Also, I tried using a setting other than baseline and it doesn't seem to work as well Edit: I went to the stable release of ffmpeg instead of using the 20181226-d702600 build and it seems to piece of work fine now! cheers!!!

I'd recommend downloading VLC anyhow because it'due south a very expert media player with many facilities but it doesn't handle animated .gif (unless there'southward a plugin that I don't know about). Handbrake is a video transcoder that works well and is very useful to have and it does transcode animated .gif to .mp4 if you want to do it that style. Edit: Bug go solved apace if you use this forum

They just need to download it, unpack and point Krita to it. At that place is no point in switching to a different one in Krita, peculiarly since while I don't know about those you lot mentioned, but a lot of programs like that uses ffmpeg internally anyway.
