  • FLV export missing for cs4 AE, running Windows XP

    Posted by Joe Smoe on February 5, 2010 at 12:25 am

    I’m trying to export a FLV through CS4’s After Effects for Windows XP. I’ve cleaned installed the entire adobe suite and even used the CS4 Script cleaner and still no avail. It won’t even show Export as FLV as an option. Not sure what to do.

    I also have Flash CS4 installed as well as Flash Media Encoder. I installed all the optional components for everything. I also have the latest quicktime.

    from “Render and export a composition as an FLV or F4V file”:

    “You render and export a movie to the FLV or F4V container format using the render queue, just as you do with other formats….
    Important: Some applications install a QuickTime export component that appears as an entry in the File > Export menu for Flash Video (FLV). Adobe recommends that you not use this command, but instead render and export FLV and F4V files using the Render Queue panel. Some features, such as export of cue points from After Effects, only work for render and export through the Render Queue panel.”

    Correction, it’s on Windows Vista, and when I use After Effects on my Mac , it gives me the export FLV option. Same version too.

    success!

    Adobe needs to be more consistent about this though, its different from the mac version.
