Export Movie Sequence vs JSFL

Hi There,

Interesting one when it comes to exporting PNG sequences out of Animate:

Animated Test FLA - 128fr

1. Export Movie Seq(manual export) - Completed rendering test scene in 3mins - all 128fr

2. Publish via JSFL using dom.exportPNG - 3 FRAMES RENDERED in 3 Min - just under 2 hours to render

3. Grabbed another publish program i found online and outcome was the same. Confirms our code is not the issue. Or both pieces of code have the same issue

What we are seeing is that Exporting a Movie Sequence is 1000 times more efficient when Rendering out then what we can do with JSFL.

Can anyone tell me why? Also..can we write to the export function via JSFL ?

Any comments are appreciated.

Mark

Correct answer arao2k6

here it is..we do not use it as this is what you would call if you used Publish via the file menu...we call publish via jsfl..

may be a red herring for you, but here it is..

Adobe Issues - Test FLA - Google Drive

Let me know if you have any issues..

Personally, i would review your render engine(s) in Flash instead of this. I've tested the test FLA with multiple JSFL export PNG sequ scripts and the speed is the same when calling via JSFL. no matter the script. What I would do if i were you is confirm the speed issue calling export via jsfl. Write a small script and see for yourself how slow it is. Then do the Export->Movie->PNG Sequence and you will see how much faster exporting via the menu is compared to the JSFL call. And it is FLASH that hangs when exporting via JSFL. It just sits there not responding, then kicks back in. Does not use all RAM (28GB!) and the PROC is not pinned. this points to how FLASH exports via the jsfl calls...

Thnxs for staying on this...

Thanks Mike for the file. We are able to see a drop in performance while exporting through JSFL compared to export from UI. We will investigate it further and keep you updated.

Thanks for your time.

Hi Mark

Can you share the script you are using to export the movie. A sample fla and script would be great to repro it at our end.

Thnxs for reply.

I provided the material requested to Adobe support. I can provide again, but the material is for broadcast and I would need to ensure all material stays within the intended parties.

Let me know how you would let me to proceed..

Thnxs,
