Hey there,

Each time I try and save a video, it saves the file but the saved video runs only for 1 second. I’ve set it to run for 10 seconds though. Anyone having similar issues?

Thank you!

Make sure to enable advanced options in the animation export dialog to select the min frame and max frame.
