Animate no longer exports to MOV or Video only allows SWF and Image sequences

Report · Apr 13, 2023

A month or so ago I successfully created a video intro in Animate and export it as a .mov file and added it to the beginning of a project in Premiere. I needed to make adjustments to it, so went back to the file yesterday. After making my edits, I attempted to export as an MOV again as I had done previously, but the only options available to me are as shown in the screenshot below:

Choosing .MOV does nothing. No file is created, AME is not launched. Choosing Video/Media also neither creates a file nor opens AME.

This worked a month ago and I really need it to work now. I have Animate version 23.0.1 build 70 installed, Media Encoder 23.2.1, and am on an M1 Macbook Pro running Ventura 13.2.1. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Just to add, I searched this discussion for over an hour before posting and while other issues were similar, nothing seems to have mentioned this specific issue. Adding a screenshot of the menu I see when I choose Export | Movie. No dialog or menu appears at all when I choose Export | Video/Media.

It seems to be working for me. I select Export Video/Media, the Export Media dialog instantly appears. I click Export, the mov video is created and Media encoder opens.

That's for your reply. I'm glad it works for you, but my issue is it no longer works for me and I really need it to.
