post render script to move the rendered file
Posted: February 20th, 2015, 2:18 pm
I'm using After-effects Render engine to render automatically new projects coming inside a watched folder.
As soon as the files are rendered, I take them with another software (Max-Msp-Jitter) with a watch folder action which play them in a huge mosaic in real-time.
The problem is that After-effects creates the file been rendering before they are completely rendered and Max sees them and takes them before the end of the render.
I see 2 possible solutions for my problem:
1. is it possible to ask After-effects to not create the file while it's been rendering?
2. find a way to do a custom post render action that could move the file to another folder
any help?
