Bugs in Animate 21.0.8

[Carbonstudio]

Two annoying bugs in the new version (using actionscript based documents).

1 - When you export video/media - Adobe Media encoder doesn't automatically launch. Only way to fix is to quit Animate and Encoder and open both programs before exporting.
2 - When you test the movie and it runs the SWF, it now hangs for around 10 seconds or so before playing the movie? This is so detrimental to my workflow I’ve now gone back to a previous version.

Anyone got a fix or found these issues?

are you using a mac?

[Carbonstudio]

Yea, Mac OS 11.5.2

at least for issue 1, it's known to adobe and will probably be fixed in the next release. their current recommendation is to use a previous animate version.

It seems that we have to add to the list

3. Inability to read and import standard WAV files in the 44100Hz 16-bit PCM format, which has always been the norm for Flash and Animate.

@Carbonstudio 
For the second issue, we do not observe any unusual delay at our end. If you are facing this issue with any specific file, please share it with us for further investigation.

[Carbonstudio]

No specific file, just all files including new blank files.

reset your preferences and retest the 2nd issue, https://helpx.adobe.com/animate/using/set-preferences.html

@Carbonstudio For the first one, the issue is with the latest version of Media Encoder (ver 15.4). As a workaround, kindly install previous version of Media Encoder (15.2) and try exporting video again.

Thanks, Sukhesh.
