Network Rendering: Setting Up File Mappings |
Use the File Mappings tab to map local folders on your host machine to universal paths.
File mappings tell remote renderers where to find the media used in your project and where to render output files.
When you import media from a local disk, the file paths saved in your project are often valid only on the local machine. This can be the case even if the media resides in a shared folder.
In order to use network rendering with nested projects, the nested project must contain only media from folders that do not require remapping. Before nesting your Vegas project, update the project so that all media in the project is added from a network folder or a local, shared folder that is mapped to the same drive letter on all renderers and the render host.
