  Hi,
  I have saved a series of images to the .tiff file format. I can open the respective cxa file in fluent and play the animation of these files, but when I try to save this animation to a video, I get the error below. I am using Fluent 2021 R1. How can I get around this? I have not been able to find a program to work around this issue.

  Hello What is the image resolution? Can you make sure that it is lower than 1360x768?

  Perhaps you load the cxa file in empty Fluent session without reading any Case file. Check what Karthik is recommending and if still having issues as workaround use Ansys EnVe to create the animation or just rely on ffmpeg

  Karthik, Image dimensions are 1761 by 1146 pixels. Is 1360 by 768 the maximum resolution to combine images into a video file for Fluent?
  DrAmine, I did load it into an empty Fluent session and still got the error above. I just tried Ansys EnVe, and it worked instantly! Very neat program. Thanks for letting me know about that.
