Watch Folder Problem
I am trying to set up a seond machine to use AE’s Render Engine to speed up rendering image sequences. I have my main computer using the watch folder, but second will not also render to the same folder. I have followed the AE help files on this issue but have had no luck. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Lee

I am trying this on a large G5 network at school. I again am having the same problems. The render begins on the inital machine, but the other machines can’t seem to find the Watch Folder. One of them did temporarily but then gave an error in the HTM page:
1) “Render Failed on this Machine.”
2) “The following layer dependencies are missing: Text Layer: Font family: ‘Arial’, Font Style: ‘Black'”The second one is especially confusing as I am not using any fonts in this comp. I had lots of trouble setting up a render farm and am ready to give up. Is it this difficult, or am I missing something?
