I am trying to make a very simple BG Render script that will render the whatever is in the queue of the current project. The script runs and renders the file...but it freezes up AE while it renders which completely negates the purpose of the script....to be able to use AE while rendering. Anyone have any idea what I am missing in the code?
Code: Select all
//Simple BG Render
appStr = "C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Adobe After Effects CS5\\Support Files\\aerender.exe";
projStr = app.project.file.absoluteURI;
system.callSystem(appStr + " -project " + projStr);
alert("Render Complete!");
