Hello! I hope you can help me. I don’t speak perfectly english, hope It’s not to bad. I run synfig studio installed by a snap under linux ubuntu. When I start the rendering under ffmpeg, the progress bar start up to the end slowly as normal, but no file at all is created. I wanted to know why it doesn’t work on my ubuntu linux, so I started the rendering tool for synfig with command line to get some error messages: synfigstudio.synfig path\_to\_myfile.sifz -v 3 -t ffmpeg -o ./zoom.avi It still doesn’t work and show me among all the messages this one: ``` synfig(11713) [16:05:58] avertissement: Cannot open ./synfig_modules.cfg synfig(11713) [16:05:58] avertissement: Cannot open /home/bourdon/snap/synfigstudio/1/.local/share/synfig/synfig_modules.cfg synfig(11713) [16:05:58] avertissement: Cannot open /usr/etc/synfig_modules.cfg synfig(11798) [16:06:39] info: w: 1920, h: 1080, a: 1, pxaspect: 1,000000, imaspect: 1,777778, span: 9,178780 synfig(11798) [16:06:39] info: tl: [-4,000000,2,250000], br: [4,000000,-2,250000], focus: [0,000000,0,000000] Rendu en cours... synfig(11798) [16:06:39] info: "which ffmpeg" --> /snap/synfigstudio/1/usr/bin/ffmpeg synfig(11798) [16:06:39] info: Render split to 1 block 781 pixels tall, and a final block 299 pixels tall ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libflite_cmu_us_awb.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory synfig(11798) [16:06:40] avertissement: Broken Pipe... synfig(11798) [16:06:40] avertissement: Broken Pipe... synfig(11798) [16:06:40] avertissement: Broken Pipe... ``` repeating the last line about 2000 times and sometimes it displays: ``` synfig(11886) [16:07:35] avertissement: Broken Pipe... /home/bourdon/Bureau/creation de video/animations/zoom de processeur + mémoire vers mémoire.sifz (it's path_to_myfile.sifz) ==> ./zoom.avi: Frame 6 of 121 (4%).

Please try with a regular AppImage > [@Snap version vs latest version?](https://forums.synfig.org/t/snap-version-vs-latest-version/11349): > > I was using the latest appimage 1.3.16 and decided to try the snap synfig install. The snap version is 1.5? Strange… but I continued and I got a warning saying that opening my 1.3.16 file and saving it in this new version will brake the compatibility of the file with the old 1.3.16 appimage application. I was assuming they were the same version. Anyway will the snap version always be latest version? and I can skip downloading appimages? Because I was assuming once again the snap would just hav… ---

I don’t know exactly if snap is up to date every time. I guess there is some time during the snap is not up to date, because the ubuntu guys have to create it manually. But what is strange is that the snap image is more recent than the normal synfig! I may try to remove the synfig from snap, install the normal synfig, and try rendering, But I doubt it will work. ---

I just removed the synfig from snap and installed the appimage by executing it, and it works 🙂 thank you I remember I tried the appimage. But It disappointed me because I couldn’t run synfig with command line 🙂 and because I couldn’t run the renderer engine from command line. It was strange to me that the launcher start the program by starting the appimage, saved in the download folder. But after all, it works so it will still use the appimage. Thank you
