Bug ID: 499283
Summary: Render As settings for certain formats in Render
Animation are reset on opening them again
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: 5.2.9
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Animation
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If you’ve changed the file export settings in Render Animation (the ellipsis
button next to the “Render As” field) when using such formats as GIF, WebM, and
WebP, closing and re-opening them will have these options reset to their
defaults.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open “Render Animation” and select any format except Ogg video in the
“Render As” entry.
2. Open the format settings (the ellipsis button next to “Render As”) and
change some settings, such as lossy/lossless mode, quality, bitrate etc. If
using Matroska or MPEG video, make sure you choose the VP9 codec because H.264
and H.265 are not affected (nor is Theora which is used with Ogg).
3. Close the format settings window and open it again.
OBSERVED RESULT
If using any codec except H.264, H.265, or Theora, the codec settings are reset
to their defaults. For example, WebP settings are reset to lossy mode,
compression level 4, quality level 75, default profile and looping no matter
what you have set before.
This happens only if you re-open the codec settings window. If you don’t open
them again and proceed to the actual rendering, your settings *will* be
applied, as evident from the log file that generates during rendering: it
remembers all command line arguments sent to FFmpeg. However, users might get
confused by this bug, especially when combined with other bugs (for example,
setting lossless mode for WebP doesn’t work anyway because other parameters
sent to FFmpeg override it).
EXPECTED RESULT
The codec settings should persist across openings, as it is the way with H.264,
H.265 and Theora video.
