Hi i cannot get the the addon to work anymore. All the mneu items are greyed out and operators are missing too as it seems. No amount of restarting and saving preferences helps. Im trying with different versions of blender 4.0 and 4.1

Hi @Ulf3000,

unfortunately hard to help based on nothing, hence the usual questions to get started:

And the most important question: Is there any output in the System Console? Please consider that I have to reproduce your bug (if there is one) on my machine in order to fix it and I do this in my spare time, so please take your time and put a bit more effort into this, thanks.

Note: The only case where icons are intentionally grayed out is when the output format is set to 'FFmpeg Video'.

Cheers, Christian

PS, It is rarely necessary to restart Blender, in order to reload your add-ons and see potential issues, you can go to System > Reload Scripts (and report back).

sorry i just had mp4 as rendering format in my file that i loaded... setting it to png solved the issue, i wasted hours on this 😭 sorry for troubling you.

Hi @Ulf3000,

no problem - glad it's working. We could add a dedicated dialog along with a warning that video is not supported, but graying out the operators complies with the guidelines of Blender and there is already a warning in the path preview:

If you have a better idea, just let me know.
