Video export: Only the first frame?

[Peter Brosch]

Hello Animates, I'm a beginner and had no problems with my first animation. The video test was running without problems, but after exporting as Video via Media Encoder, the mp4 contained only the first frame (like a single image). What did I wrong?

A feature that was in Flash Pro and Animate for many versions, disappeared for a bit, and then came back in a recent update. If you are exporting video for a given amount of time, rather than a given number of frames, any ActionScript in the timeline will be followed. If you have stop(); in frame 1, the export will stay on that frame.

Ah, thank you for the hint!

I'm in the same boat but not to sure how to fix it could you give me some guidance please

In the current version with Media Encoder open at the same time, the export works fine for me now. Maybe the loop function blocks the creation of a video?
