SketchUp Pro 2013 Exporting Animation Issue
-
Hello!
Been running SU Pro 2013 for awhile now, but just ventured into my first exporting animation with this program. Unfortunately, I am having quite the issue with exporting an animation. I tried to export the a 10 scene animation at 720p (1280 x 720) at 24 frames per second. Selected my file type as "Uncompressed/AVI File (*.avi)", and the file size was 1.2 GB!!!!! On top of that, it would not open for me through Quicktime, Windows Media Player, etc. Kept saying there was an issue with the file and it could not be played. I had a collegue export the animation form his computer...no problems at all. 32 MB file size, high def, etc..
I have also noticed that the export animation dialog box does not allow me to select the codec as in previous versions of SU. I am pretty novice when it comes to codecs and movie file types and differences, but I think this is an area of concern for me. I am attaching a couple of screen shots showing the different types of movie files I can save, as well as the options dialog box.
My system vitals:
Dell Precision M6500
Intel Core i7 CPU
Q 720 @ 1.60GHz
925 MHz, 3.48 GB Ram
Microsoft XP Service Pack 3
ATI FirePro M7740 Graphic CardAny speedy help would be greatly appreciated!! Switching back to a previous employer who requires a lot of animations, so this has become quite an inconvenience. Thanks in advance!!!!
