Please help! ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable...

Hello everyone!

 

I'm working on an animated music video. The video runs well in Animate both on the timeline and .swf and I have no problems whatsoever. But when I tried to convert it to .mp4 with Swivel I got the following errors:

 

ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable Видео_mc_0_1 is not defined.

ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable Видео__4_време_10 is not defined.

ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable _04_време_mc_0_11 is not defined.

 

I tried other online convertors and the result was the same. I have not used any code, just animations. 

The gibberish letters might be because I have used Cyrlic for naming layers and symbols. I am working on renaming everything using Latin letters but still, I'm not sure if that will fix the problems. 

The video is more than a minute long now and the file is very large, but right after I rename everything I will try to post a .fla file for everyone whos willing to check it out and help.

Meanwhile, I'm open to suggestions or any kind of advice!

 

Thank you!

    Hi.

     

    There are a few possible reasons for this.

     

    1 - If you're using advanced layers (Modify > Document (Cmd/Ctrl + J) > Use Advanced Layers), the name of the layers in the main timeline must follow variable naming limitations. The special characters you're using may be causing some kind of conflict.

     

    2 - I'm not an expert in Swivel, but I get the impression that it works better with older versions of Animate.

     

    Anyway, why don't you convert your animation to video using Animate itself by going to File > Export > Export Video/Media...?

     

    Please let us know.

     

    Regards,

    JC

    You saved my life!

    If you were around I would have bought you a beer!

     

    I have never thought that Advanced layers may cause such a problem! One-click and the problem were fixed!

     

    Thanks a lot!
