AVFoundationError (iOS)

If you see this error message when trying to export, we recommend trying the following steps to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Ensure you’re using the most recent version of the app from the Apple App Store.

2. Reboot your device and ensure no other apps, especially video players or screen recorders, are running. If another app is using your device’s resources, Alight Motion may have trouble accessing them.

3. Export from the project list as this uses fewer resources. Open Alight Motion > tap Projects to open the project list tab > long-press the project thumbnail > tap Export at the bottom-left corner.

4. Export from the project list by adjusting the export settings. Use a lower resolution, frame rate, or bitrate (Quality slider).

   To open the export settings: open Alight Motion > tap Projects to open the project list tab > long-press the project thumbnail > tap Export at the bottom-left corner > tap the arrow (>) icon next to Video > adjust the settings here.

5. Try exporting your project using either H.264/AVC or H.265/HEVC. Open Alight Motion > tap Projects to open the project list tab > long-press the project thumbnail > tap Export at the bottom-left corner > tap the arrow (>) icon next to Video > change the Codec option.

• A screenshot of the lowest export settings used to export the project: from your project, tap Export > tap the arrow > icon next to Video to see the export settings > take a screenshot.
