Tom, It might be worth looking into the slashes a bit more. These look like the commands that are run when you press the record button on the coordinate set slider tool: [image: image.png] Mine also has mixed slashes, but I don't get an error. If mixed slashes can be problematic, I'd hope the 'record' button wouldn't mix them. Could this error happen if the output mp4 already exists and is open in a video player? Depending on the player, it might block overwriting the file. Best, Tony On Fri, Aug 11, 2023 at 2:10 PM Tom Goddard via ChimeraX-users < chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu> wrote:
My guess would be that it doesn't like the mix of backslashes and forward slashes in the path. I would use all forward slashes ("/").

Hello, The error message says the directory (folder) for saving this file does not exist. So, are you sure that C:\Users\Rkrishnan/Desktop exists? Make sure that in the "movie encode" command you give the pathname of the output file that includes a folder that (1) already exists on your computer and (2) where you have permission to write files.
I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco
