  • Proper way to update a file after rendering?

    Posted by Bryan Fowler on January 17, 2012 at 3:50 pm

    Me again.

    What’s the proper, or most proper way to update a rendered movie?

    Here’s what I mean. I do the grading, render with the “FCP XML roundtrip” settings. Save it all to a folder.

    We pop back in FCP, add some graphics and fiddle with things again (what do you mean “picture lock”)
    I see a clip that has a window that is a little visible, so I go back in Resolve, find it, fix it, and render it again.

    I’d love for it to write over the previous file, so that when I go back into FCP it updates, and we’re good to go again. But I can’t seem to work out how to have it do that.

    What am I missing?

    di did you try ?

    the render page should not change until you change it , and resolve will overwrite that shot ,
    try just render out that shot (or the all thing ) should work

    Definitely works. I do it all the time. Only catch would be if you “check” the “unique file name” box with the first render, it will uncheck after the render is finished, so you will need to be sure to re-check for every fix.
