Dear TVPaint community,
I encountered a strange problem:
I'm working on a TVPaint project which is 450 frames long in total. Starting frame is 1, last frame is 450. I want to export all of them as a JPEG or PNG sequence. I set Mark-in to 1 and Mark-out to 450. But no matter which settings I try, TVPaint keeps exporting 449 JPEGs! Where is the missing JPEG?
It's getting more confusing: When I examine the exported JPEGs, I see that the first JPEG is the first frame and the last JPEG is the last frame of the TVPaint project! Is there possibly some frame damaged somewhere in the middle of the project? I also counted all JPEGS by myself to see if maybe my Windows Explorer is showing a wrong number. But it is 449 JPEGs, and from 1 to 449 all numbers are present.
Such issue never occured to me before with my TVPaint... the export always worked well. Now I have no clue. Any help is very much appreciated!
Best, Audiovisualisa
TVPaint exporting wrong number of frames!
Re: TVPaint exporting wrong number of frames!
Check if the frame count in the timeline starts with 0, and check if you set export start to 1.

Re: TVPaint exporting wrong number of frames!
I made a fast test with 10.5.7 pro on win7:
startframe on the timeline is 1, lastframe on the timline is 450
exported as jpgs from frame 1 to frame 450 and got 450 jpgs.
fine .
So I would suggest:
- have again a close look at your timeline. Is the last frame really number 450?
- make a new layer, left click on the first frame and choose frame reapeat. Set it to 450 and compare with your animation layer. Do they have the same lenght?
- do you have accidentally set an in point and/or out point at your timeline? (those points are green or red colored on top of the timeline)

If timeline starts with 0 and the last frame is 450 she probably would get 451 frames. If export starts with 1, she would get 450 frames.slowtiger wrote:Check if the frame count in the timeline starts with 0, and check if you set export start to 1.
