Hi I have been using SVG files for my project and sometimes they appear fine but then when export in video they some times desapear and others they look very low res. The files this is happening too is more of a random situation. When I export in HTML5 they are all there. Any ideas?

 

Thanks

Eleni

    I would never use SVGs if you want only to publish to mp4. SVGs need to be rendered contrary to bitmap images, there is no time in a video. That is the reason you experienced those problems.

    A cumbersome workaround if you need mp4 output, parallel with HTML5 output could be to play the HTML output and record it with Video Demo.

      The SVG format is great when publishing to HTML5, but I'm not sure Adobe was thinking of their use when publishing to video. SVG takes a moment or two to render and this might interfere with publishing to HTML5. My advice would be to swap them out for their PNG equivalents if your intention is to publish as a video.
