Render overwrite

[Erik Waluska]

I don’t know of any way to overwrite an existing file automatically but you can do it manually.

Add the composition to the render queue and click on the filename in the output module and delete the “_1, _2, etc.” from the filename (or just click on the existing file in the browser window).

A dialogue will pop up asking if you want to overwrite the existing file. Just click “yes” and then render.

If you already have a completed version in your Render Queue, have it selected and duplicate it with:

Win: Ctrl-Shift-D
Mac: Cmd-Shift-D

This will make an exact copy of your previous render settings, including the filename. Just start the render and say it’s OK to overwrite the file.

Hope that helps,
Ben
