Hi JC,

 

Yes, Im using 23.0. I actually ended up fixing it by changing the RENDERER in Media Encoder from Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (Metal) to Mercury Playback Engine Software Only.

 

Now it works. Not sure why that makes the difference.

 

Thanks,
Claudia

the background will be black (if you selected 32 bit when exporting) because it's transparent.

 

do you have something that's not black on stage?

No, nothing should be black. It was just a blank black screen.

Hi.

 

Are you using version 23.0?

 

It just ran a test and it worked for me.

 

How is your timeline organized?

 

Please let us know.

 

Regards,

JC
