Programming rendering work possible in Premiere? at DVinfo.net

Leo Zheng · December 21st, 2007, 02:09 PM

Let's say I have 5 sequences in a project to render, each about an hour. Is there a feature in Premiere that allows me to assign the rendering once, and when I wake up in the morning all sequences are done rendering?

Hello Leo,

I asked something like your looking for some time ago (http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthread.php?t=108283) but I only had one reply telling me there was no way to do it, the only option being using After Effects...I kinda tried but was kind of frustrating and don't like the whole hussle of it.

After much research from my part, I just found this function was avaliable in Premiere 5.x and 6.x but Adobe took it away in Pro...what a pitty!!! I was under File->Utilities->Batch Processing and here you just pointed the premiere projects you wanted to render, precisely what I need!!! But that function is gone (I wonder why). Just few minutes ago I found this: http://www.homedvd.ca/contact/softwa..._batch_export/

Is a batch utility that works under Windows and it says does what we're looking for and if we're lucky must work just fine...I'll try next week and see how it goes. If you try it and do it earlier you might tell us how it went.

Create a master sequence comprising all your 5 sequences and render the master sequence. It does not help if you need each of the sequences separately, because then the render of the master will not propagate to the individual sequences.
