Can’t make a non-self-contained movie

[Jeremy Garchow]

[John Felt] “Is that normal that it would need to render it? I have never seen that need before. “

Not during normal playback, no. But when exporting yes as that is an rt effect. Since the effect can be performed in rt, it doesn’t need to be rendered when watching it, but when you export a reference movie, it is basically referencing the hard media on disk. SInce that effect is rt, it needs to be baked in in order to reference the resulting clip with cc.

Does that make sense to you?
