  • How to get the Render and Replace files to save on external hard drive?

    Posted by Dwight Buhler on October 15, 2024 at 2:35 am

    So here’s my situation. I have been using Render and Replace on certain audio files because for whatever reason, the built in subtitle generator will not recognize these files and will not create subs for them. When I use Render and Replace on said files, I get my subs. However, after passing off my external hard drive to another editor to finish up a couple things while I was gone, he informed me that those rendered files were saving to my computer and not the external drive where all the media and the project itself lives. Am trying to find a way to get the Render and Replace files to save on said external hard drive. When I looked at the Adobe manual on this topic, it seems to say that when you hit the “Render and Replace” button, a window should pop up and you can set the destination there. However, when I hit it, no such window appears. It only gives me a progress bar telling me it’s working. I’m on a Mac, and am using PP 2024.4.1 Can anyone help?

    One other thing, don’t know if it matters, but the files I’m having trouble with are Multicam files. All my single cam footage is fine.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi,

    Unfortunately, the Render and Replace will only save it next to the original media, when it is audio only. You have to manually locate and transfer it before you hand over the external drive.
