Hello all-
I have seen this problem addressed in a couple other posts here, but cannot seem to find resolution.
All settings are correct… When rendering out from the Movie Queue, .jpg/.png/exr images or command line ffmpeg MP4, the sequence or MP4 renders fine until the last frame, then in the Render Preview box, the cut state font turns red, ‘Uninitialized’ and it closes. The MP4 render does not show up in the saved folder. Any image sequences produced DO show up in the save folder, but cannot be accessed by the video sequencer in Blender, for example. Any help with this?
It sounds like you have an issue with your FFMPEG command. You can go into the output log and copy the command out and just try it in a command prompt to try and trouble shoot. There is a guide here that might help.
Sadly, that is not it…all the settings are fine…just no output to the folders at the end … it appears that at the final frame, the movie queue crashes…gives an Uninitialized message in in red in the cut scene to the right, and an orange Export on the left side of the Queue render preview. Then it shuts. If I have selected a sequence…they will be in the appropriate folder but cannot be accessed by Blenders Vid Editor…if I select MP4 thru the command input…nothing is put in the folders…same Uninitialized error in red. SO…I am reinstalling 5.5.4 and about to see if it will just do a simple render and export…
There are several past posts in here about this with fixes ranging from reload, increase cache size, but nothing seems to work for me
Long post, but thank you … hope I explained a bit better
