empty txt file after exporting dataset with yolov8 format

[bauerhartmut]

When I am try to export a Video dataset from label-studio using the yolov8 format I get an .zip file with the folders with one is named labels with an empty txt file in it. How can I solve this problem? I am updatet label-studio today but never made a video dataset earlier.

Hi @bauerhartmut - we don't actually offer yolov8 export; our yolo export is intended for image datasets rather than video. What I'd recommend doing instead is exporting in json format, then converting the result to your intended format (though unfortunately, we don't offer any tools for this conversion just yet)

Hi,
@jombooth this actually happens also for images ( I tried Keypoint labelling)

The UI offers the option of YOLOv8 OBB, but it also exports empty labels txt files.
