Dear Chimera team, I have recently come across a problem saving images in Chimera where it saves the image but it opens as a completely black image (and very small file size). I've tried changing a few different settings and that doesn't help. The error also seems to be there with when I save a video. Your help is much appreciated.

Black saved images from Chimera almost always means your system graphics driver is buggy and updating the graphics driver is the solution. Sometimes saving images with no supersampling (1x1) works for such drivers. But movie recording uses no supersampling by default so if your movies are black then that probably will not help. Tom
