Hi,

What's the size of the exported video?. I'm asking because I had the same problem, and the video was correct. VLC was not playing properly the video, but WindowsMediaPlayer did...usually is the reverse! Try with another player if the video size make sense.

What settings do you have in Options::Images::FFMPEG_OUTPUT_OPTIONS?
Try with:

Code: Select all

-f mp4 -vcodec libx264 -an -threads 0 
Have you tried playing the video in another system?
