Shutdown PC after Render

[Mike Kujbida]

I’ve never used this one but know a few Vegas users who like it.
Batch Render + Shutdown script

[Daniel Frost]

I haven’t tried the batch render + shutdown one, but if I know how long it will take to render (for me and my snail of a computer 10mins will take around 3-4hrs!?!) I use a freeware program called handy tweaker https://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/System-Tweak/Handy-Tweakers.shtml

You can set this to shutdown your computer at a specific time or after a specified length of time, the disadvantage of this is if you misjudge your render time or your computer slows down then you risk the computer shutting down mid-render.

I know its not the best way to do it and feels like hitting a nail with a sledgehammer but I found it works how I want it to, as 90% of videos I do inevitably have to render overnight.

Hope that helps
