  Render Engine Launch Error

  Posted by Ben Watson on August 18, 2008 at 6:23 pm

  Here is the deal: I am setting up an XP startup script to launch render engine automatically when a pc boots.

  Here is the script:
  “C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS3\Support Files\AfterFX.exe” -wf c:\test\ -re
  

  I orginally tried to setup the watched-folder on a mapped drive and got:
  After Effects error: You do not have read/write permissions for this folder.

  I get the same error even when I set the watch-folder to a local drive. I do have R/W access to both, so I wonder if something else is weird here? Anyone ever done this, or am I crazy?

  It seems to me that you should easily be able to launch render engine and auto launch watch folder, since this is all that render engine will do!
