Question

Black screen when saving video

Hello everyone, so I'm very new to animation software and I'm not sure what I did wrong. I have a very short 16 second animation with little audio. Video over which animation is drawn. When I try to save the file in video format, a black screen is saved and the following text appears in the output line: WARNING. This movie uses features that are not supported in Flash Player 30. Cutout=cutout1, layer=Layer1, frame=1: Warning! H.264 video will not be published. I have already tried all the options and save settings, but the error still remains. Can I ask someone to save my file as a video and then send the video to me? Or help to eliminate the error, but it seems to me that it is no longer possible to eliminate it 🙂

In the export as video options is one that says Ignore stage color (generate alpha channel). You would use that option to export a video that has your animation on top of a transparent background. You then take that video and your original background video, into Premiere or After Effects. Put the animation on top of the video, and export both to a single file.

If you do have access to After Effects, you can import the FLA, and do all of the video exporting in AE.

start your sound on frame 2.

 

if that fails, how you publishing your video?  eg, file>export>export video/media.

Now the video was saved, but there is only animation on a black background. There is no video itself.

is your video on a main timeline (it has to be for video export), or in a video component (which won't work) or on a movieclip timeline (which won't work)?
