Wouldn’t happen to be an Other World Computing Drive would it?

If you are considering dedicating a server for final rendering….

this means likely you’d be rendering through Adobe Media Encoder, yes?

remember that AME essentially opens a headless (no interface) version of PPro in the background to
submit the jobs to render. So the things that benefit PPro will benefit the server as well

1) Does the server have the option of adding a GPU to the cofiguration?
GPU is a big part of Mercury and can speed up rendering significantly.

2) Can the server have access to your editing system’s render previews via some sort of network configuration?
if so, enabling the reuse of any previews (assume they are full quality) can potentially speed things up considerably too.

3) RAM. Cheap part of a server config. Add it.

4) Remember to keep fonts and plug-ins in sync with your editing configuration to avoid potential problems with output not matching what you saw in edit.

Hi,

you might also adjust your workflow to starting at the desktop and duplicating the PPro project file and and launching the application by way of opening the duplicate project.

Hi…

1) nope can’t make multiple subclips at the same time….that’s correct

2) Bridge and other tools can sometime rename in batches matching a pattern. so you can select a set of files and a do a rename pass removing “subclip” or some other pattern match from the file names….or truncating the last X number of characters…or something like that….so you don’t have to do it one at a time…

At the very least….

make a main folder that represents your drive…

then copy the hierarchy (folder structure) into that folder….

you may have to relink….

but at least the paths will make sense…

marquee each clip in the timeline

and choose Clip>create subclip (on mac CMD U )

the sub clip will appear in the project panel…and it will inherhit the original clip name as part of its name…

you can batch the subclips from the project panel through AME…

so either fix the names as you sub clip, fix them in the project panel….

or you can use Bridge or some other renaming tool after the fact to batch modify the names….

if you don’t want to nest…

you can mark in and out in the sequence around a clip or clips and use the Sequence>create sub sequence

to create a sequence of just that range…

then multi-select in the project panel…and export queue to media encoder….

3) mark I/O to define your range
4) extract
