Rendering Oddity

I need to export a series of 93 PNG layers. They were imported as layers from a sequence of PNGs. After I edited a few of them, I set the Render ouput rate at 24fps (0.0417s duration per frame), but only 73 PNGs (80%) resulted.

I tried this with a 24fps video, and again, the output number of frames was 80% of what it should have been.

24fps / 30fps is 80%, but not sure how that is relevant as I only am working with 24fps media.

Any idea what is going on?

I'm using CS6 on Windows 10.

Thanks.

Hi Jim s

I do have a copy of PS CS6 so gave it a look. I won't claim to understand the details of that export module yet the behavior indicates that for exporting an animation (which is what you have set up), and that you are outputting PNGs (which I believe each file retains no video inforamtion, that if you just set the frame rate to 30 (the apparent default), it will output exactly the same number of frames in your animation).

It does scale from 30 fps so if you put in 60, if would output twice as many frames, and 15 half as many.

I don't understand PS logic from back then yet I think that solves your problem for the animation frame to PNG frame export process

Hope that helps

Yep, set it to 30 instead of 24 and all frames are exported. Thanks!
