Hello, I have this problem.

When I start exporting my animation into a video in ffmpeg format it doesn’t work: The compress steps works but absolutely no files are created in my folder.

I tried to export it using the command line:  
synfigstudio.synfig ./mémoire.sifz -v 3 -t ffmpeg -a 3 -o ./zoom.avi

and it reports me some errors:  
firsts are:  
synfig(9895) [20:23:27] avertissement: Cannot open ./synfig\_modules.cfg  
synfig(9895) [20:23:27] avertissement: Cannot open /home/bourdon/snap/synfigstudio/1/.local/share/synfig/synfig\_modules.cfg  
synfig(9895) [20:23:27] avertissement: Cannot open /usr/etc/synfig\_modules.cfg

last are:  
ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libflite\_cmu\_us\_awb.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory  
synfig(9895) [20:23:28] avertissement: Broken Pipe…  
synfig(9895) [20:23:28] avertissement: Broken Pipe…  
synfig(9895) [20:23:28] avertissement: Broken Pipe…  
synfig(9895) [20:23:28] avertissement: Broken Pipe…  
synfig(9895) [20:23:28] avertissement: Broken Pipe…

and it repeats lot of times : synfig(9895) [20:23:28] avertissement: Broken Pipe…

and at the end not files are created.

I thought the library libflite\_cmu\_us\_awb.so.1is missing in my system but apparently, it’s here because  
the command"ldconfig -v |grep libflite\_cmu\_us\_awb.so.1" return me somethiing.

In dv format it works!

Do you know where the problem come from?

Thanks for your answer

Nicolas

Hi @nicobzz ! Sorry for a late answer. It looks like you are using the snap package. This issue should be resolved in version 1.4.0, we published it yesterday. Please check if it solves the problem for you.
