You don't need any plug-in to create videos.
May I insist: please read the instructions in the user's guide and in the help. From your screenshots, I'm sure you even didn't try to reproduce the instructions. [:((]

Hi,

I just read the user guides again. And from my understand to this, once you click on the VIDEO button, a box appear and you first click on the CREATE button and then click on the RED button and then move the 3D VIEW. But my problem here is when the video box appear, I can't click on the CREATE button [:-&] . I tried the taking PHOTO function and the CREATE button just work fine.

I'm new new to this. I like the program and I just want to find a way to solve this. [:(]

Regards,
Anne

The user's guide says:
To create a video, choose in the 3D view the initial location of the video camera and click on the red button in the video creation pane. Then move in the 3D view to the next location of the video camera and click again on the red button. Repeat these steps for each location where the camera should pass by during the video.
Each time you click on the red button, a new point is added in the video creation pane to show you the path of the camera. As Sweet Home 3D takes also into account the vertical elevation of the camera, its 2 rotation angles and its field of view, you may create all kind of animations.
Once the path you created is satisfying, click on the Create button to start the computing of the video frames, then once this computing is finished, click on the Save... button to save the video in a Quicktime file.
How can you conclude from this text that you should click first on the Create button then on the red button???

Hi,
Creating 3D videos


Click on the [font=times new roman]Create video[/font] ... tool to display the pane used to create a video from a virtual path in the 3D view. As figure 23 shows, this pane lets you choose the format of the video and its quality in a similar way as in the photo creation pane.

To create a video, choose in the 3D view the initial location of the video camera and click on the red button in the video creation pane. Then move in the 3D view to the next location of the video camera and click again on the red button. Repeat these steps for each location where the camera should pass by during the video....

I appologize for my misunderstanding, I thought that the first path with the words "create video" suppose to mean that click on Create.You are correct.


Regards,
Anne

Ok I understand the misunderstanding now. Too much Create buttons on the screen! [;)]
I hope you'll succeed to generate nice videos...
