All the MP4 files are corrupted when exported.....windows, vlc none can play it and my editor can't import.
What's the issue with 13? My 12 worked fine
Thanks, Sarge
This is a Window issue. It should work wih Win 7and Win 10 but not with previous versions

That's strange.
Some ideas:
In the DRIVERS tab of the SETTINGS > OPTIONS... dialog you can set the MP4 encoding profile. In V12 it was fixed to HIGH. In V13 it is optional and defaults to BASELINE. Maybe switching to HIGH helps.
Encoding to MP4 is a separate step performed after rendering. You can see the progress % in BluffTitler's title bar. Make sure not to close BluffTitler before it has finished by showing the Video successfully created dialog box.

Is MP4 only for Win 10? Now that I look at the option again it has Win 10 in parentheses.
So with my Win 7 I'm out of luck with MP4. Must resign myself to the huge AVI.

@Jeep35.....Thanks for the try but I think it's not available in Win 7. Crazy!! LOL

BluffTitler is using the Microsoft MP4 encoder that's built into Windows (Media Foundation). According to the documentation it should work on Windows 7, but it doesn't. That's why the GUI says
[Windows 10]. I am sorry for the confusion, we will try to make it more clear in the next version.
I'd like to stress that MP4 export is only useful when your video is the final product. Rule of thumb is: never re-encode your video. If you are mixing your intro with other videos in your NLE always export uncompressed and postpone the encoding to the very end. This gives you the best possible quality.

Yes, have a couple that would fly as they are but I can flip them through the editor.
Appreciate your kind assistance.....I'm really having a ball with this version 13.
Water, sky and flags.....gets the creative juices flowing.
Thank you,
