rendering

Hi everyone, when I have to save the video rendering it tells me that the type of compression isn't right. I've tried everything, how do I solve it?

What tells you and when? What options are you choosing? What are your system specs?

In general it is best to render to an image sequence, rather than try turning the result straight into a video - that way you can redo any bad sections, resume if there is a crash (or if an update reboots the system), can save to a format such as Tiff or PNG with an alpha channel, and so on.

with any type of engine it tells me that the type of compression is not right, but the strange thing is that it worked for me before

Compression would, I suspect, be when covnerting the temporary image sequence into a video file at the end - giving specifics would help. It may be dependent on which codecs you have installed - again, specifics would help.
