P: Convert to Video Timeline option missing - Apple M1 devices

I am not able to select anything but "Create Frame Animation" in the Timeline. I am trying to create a Video Timeline, but not using Frame animation. This option isn't in the bottom left or top right of the Timeline menu.

 

I have tried resetting my preferences, uninstalling and re-installing, creating a new document, and converting all layers to smart objects, and none of those have worked. I have a macbook pro with macOS Big Sur version 11.2.3 with an Apple M1 chip.

 

Thank you for the help!

il faut ouvrir photoshop avec Rosetta sur le M1 pour avoir accès au montage vidéo.

Pour ça il faut faire un command+i sur l'icone de l'application et cocher la case ouvrir avec Rosetta.

Puis lancer l'application. Attention cela rame pas mal !

Bonjour, 

 

je viens d'installer Photoshop sur mon MacOS M1, j'ai bien suivi la procédure d'installation, or je n'ai plus accès ni au montage video ni à l'ouverture de fichier video sur photoshop alors que j'y arrivai très bien depuis mon ancien ordinateur, à quoi cela est dû ?

Not sure if this may help, but I do animations in PSD with students...Maybe check out this link for Rendering Video (you can open Render Video and export specific frames in this setting).

I see how I can export a Timeline Video, but there doesn't seem to be a way to export Frame Animations anymore in Photoshop 23.1.0?? This has been a part of my workflow for a while. Any tips?

As others have stated, the workaround for opening video files within Photoshop on an M1 Mac is to run Photoshop under Rosetta:

• Highlight the Photoshop app in the applications folder

• Command + i opens up the info window

• tick the box "Open using Rosetta"

Hi, I am desperate to bring back the Export > Render video function. This was the perfect setup for stop motion. Now there are only tedious work arounds and you need to use multiple programs.

Adobe article for reference on stop mo process (no longer possible now):

I'm on a Macbook Air (MacOS 11.2) version of photoshop and when i try to use the timeline it shows me only the option of photograms and not the "create a timeline" one. I can't even import videos or edit them, they're just considered as they could't be read. I'm new on photoshop so i don't know if I have to change settings or is it a sort of a bug (or a limitation of the device, but I don't think so since i bought this Mac last summer). Anyway the version I'm using is the 23.1.1 and I also tried older versions ma the problem still remains.

 

Thank you for the help in advance.

"Another week, another person who makes the same complaint that has existed since the very beginning, but as though they are the first to experience it. And another good-hearted soul repeats the same workaround that the rest of us who do read previous comments and answers already know - Rosetta. "

 

One thing that is happening is that users are creating new threads which are being answered by a volunteer. Then someone else is merging that thread with this longer one. The poster most likely was never aware of the other posts.

 

When Adobe is able to fully resolve this issue, they will post it in this thread and we will all be notified at once. Jeffrey Tranberry has already told us it's coming for the M1 processor (yay!) in one of the posts mark "Correct".
