Nodebox cannot export movies under Catalina<div><p>Hi John,</p>
<p>Yikes! tested on 10.15.4 and yes MP4 does not work.</p>
<p>I hope this helps, export as an image sequence, then use photoshop or your choice of video editing tool to make the movie.</p>
<p>I don't use the MP4 video export from NodeBox because I find the quality to be poor compared to exporting PNGs</p></div>Dtag:support.nodebox.net,2012-11-01:Comment/482223832020-04-05T18:10:26Z2020-04-05T18:10:26ZALERT!

Nodebox cannot export movies under Catalina<div><p>Hi D,</p>
<p>(Is it Dexter?)</p>
<p>Thanks for the confirmation and suggestion. Yes, I verified that image sequence export still works. It's a definite workaround but would add extra steps to my workflow - which is a pain because I tend to iterate extensively when working on movies.</p>
<p>Why did you send the java link? Are you suggesting that we might need to backport to an earlier java release? (Not sure I would want to do that even it worked.)</p>
<p>A similar problem came up a few years ago and the NodeBox team was able to fix it then and release an updated version of NodeBox. The problem might be that NodeBox needs to use a newer version of FFMPEG. Or it might be some security thing that requires some new certificate. Or maybe a Java thing. I am hoping that Frederik will know (if he's still there).</p>
<p>If you do learn anything more please advise. And thanks again for your comments.</p>

Nodebox cannot export movies under Catalina<div><p>I have just posted my first NodeBox movie generated under Catalina. In my post I provide a list of tips for using the Export Range option:</p>

<p>So while there is a workaround, I still think it's urgent to fix this bug (but have not yet heard from Frederik).</p>
<p>I also heard from a fellow NodeBox user that OSC nodes may not work under Catalina. I am not into sound conversion. Can someone confirm?</p>
