Hi! I've a big problem and I can't find the solution anywhere. <\/p>\n

I am simulating sneeze in a 3D room and trying to create animations of particle diameter, temperature, velocity magnitude, etc.<\/p>\n

I am applying the animations through: Results –> Animation –> Solution Playback<\/p>\n

When the simulation finishes and I try to playback the animation to write the mpeg, I get this error:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Input file too small! (????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????\u0007)<\/p>\n

Removing frame files … done.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I've checked the .cxa file in the directory but it seems all correct and in the directory I see the .mpeg file but it is 0 Kb.<\/p>\n

How can I solve the problem?<\/p>\n

Thank you for the help!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-165683","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-animation-playback-1","topic-tag-cfd-post","topic-tag-fluent","topic-tag-post-processing","topic-tag-solution-animations-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_btv_view_count":["3222"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_bbp_subscription":["254601","277681","40760"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["165683"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["218","40760","229857","277681"],"_bbp_voice_count":["4"],"_bbp_reply_count":["14"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["306309"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["306309"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-09-12 09:41:45"]},"test":"tiziano-tasiniunitn-it"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/165683","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/165683\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165683"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
