I am so SAD!  I have bought a new Macbook M4 Max

However, Lightroom CC lastest version, cant EXPORT slideshows as videos!

the progress bar is stopped at nearly 10% position.

No matter if I wait several hours it won't move any progress = I Cant export slideshow as Video

 

I always used this function, for a few years, day by days

 

I uninstalled the LR and tried reinstalling it, but it still failed.

Does anybody have the same issue?

I wonder if it is a problem related to M4 chips. Please kindly help and fix please!

I have had this issue for years. Adobe cannot resolve it so don't expect any miracles. I'm on M2 MBP Max with the highest specs. It frustrates the hell out of me since I've been on the journey since the inital beta release. LR Classic has never been good with video. I recommend moving on to a more suitable program like premiere. Great to see they are finally acknowledging 4K output, as useless as that feature is for me.

I've surfaced this again with the Classic engineering team. For those of you who still see this issue on LrC 15.0 the team is requesting diagnostic logs. 

 

  1. Restart Lightroom
  2. Attempt to export a Slideshow as a video
  3. Upon Failure, generate a log

    For LrClassic:
  4. Go to Preferences
  5. Lightroom Sync tab
  6. Hold down [Alt/Opt]
  7. Click [Generate Diagnostic Log]
  8. When you have the diagnostic log, post it to a sharing service (Dropbox or similar) and then share the link with us. 

 

Thanks!

Mac Studio M1, MacOS Tahoe.  LRC 15 - fails every time on Export of slideshow. No different than previous version, stalls at exact same point.
