Lightroom 6.8 Slideshow not able to export video

[Jim JiM]

Hi

I have tried to export a Slideshow in LR 6.8 and the job stops always after about 10%.

I have tried all different possibilities even with only 3 Landscape pictures , low resolution, low quality, no sound, no  start picture , nothing than 3 pictures , but it still didn't work.

When I want to start the export the first try doesn't do anything.

Only the second try starts but than stops after about 10% without any error message just staying at 10%  level.

Exporting to PDF works fine.

On my Laptop I have an old version LR 5.7.1 and here the video export works fine but with the restrictions of this version 5.7.1.

I am running on PC and on Laptop windows 7 with enough Ram 16 & 8 GB and the latest video drivers

Hi Jim,

Which Video preset are you using and where are you trying to export slideshow?

This is a known issue and we are investigating it. Lightroom: Will not export both portrait and landscape oriented pictures as a slideshow video in 720...

Feel free to add your system info and other details in the discussion above.

Regards,

Akash

[Jim JiM]

Thanks for your information,

I have tested in several video resolutions also in 480x270 the smallest one with 3 pictures in low resolution .jpg all in landscape.

Nothing worked.

The same pictures however work for a slideshow export in LR 5.7.1

As export location I tried desktop & external Disk noting worked.

I even tried with a small slideshow collection export Catalog with 3 pictures > didn't work

Dear Akash Sharma

I'm using the same version of LR 6.8 and I have exactly the same problem. Exactly, I mean:

1) When I want to start the export the first try doesn't do anything;

2) then the export starts but stops at 10%. Nothing happens.

Do you have any knowledge about the solution? When can we expect upgrade fixing the problem?

I'm very sad about the slideshow problems. They come again and again through the versions. This is really bad implemented feature. Too bad for a Adobe Product.

Greeetings.

[Jim JiM]

Hi Akash Sharma, as Grzegorz has exactly the same problem , do you have no idea how we can solve the problem by a turn around ?

[Akash Sharma]

Hi Jim,

Have you tried unchecking "Use graphics Processor" in Preferences>Performance and then creating/saving a slideshow?

~Akash

[Jim JiM]

Yes I did all kind of tests nothing worked. We have 2 different PC's where LR6.8 is running and on both we have the same problem. When trying to make a video with the same audio and jpg files with a LR5.7 on a 3rd machine there is no problem 😞

[Akash Sharma]

Have you gone through the suggestions mentioned in Can't export slideshow to movie. ?

Akash

[grzegorzk18060883]

It doesn't work in my case. Do you have any idea what is the problem? If yes, can you tell us any forecast of troubleshooting? If you haven't located the problem, how does it work usually in similar cases?

[Jim JiM]

It doesn't work in my case

[Jim JiM]

Hi Akash Sharma I have installed Li8ghtroom 6.0 on another Laptop without doing the updates to 6.8 and there it worked with the same slides and configuration.

[Akash Sharma]

Hi JimJim,

Thanks for the heads up. As mentioned earlier, I believe you are facing a known issue which is being worked upon. I will update this discussion with further troubleshooting steps soon.

Thanks,

Akash

[grzegorzk18060883]

Hi Akash,

as we haven't received any information from you since 2017-02-20 I would like to ask if you could tell us any specific information about the issue:

1) what do you know about the problem

2) what do you don't know

3) when do you expect the solution

Greetings,

Grzegorz

[Rikk Flohr: Photography]

A bug is still open on this issue. We do not have an ETA at this time. The best place to follow for information is the thread mentioned earlier: Lightroom: Will not export both portrait and landscape oriented pictures as a slideshow video in 720...

[bruce_h]

Likewise here in Omaha. Exact same symptoms.
