Is there a way to do batch rendering? I could set up 3 or 4 projects and have them render overnight while I am sleeping?
Is this just wishful thinking on my part?
Why not launch 3 or 4 copies of VMS, set up each one with a different rendering task, start each rendering and then go to bed. It should all be done by the next morning depending on the length/output resolution/etc of each rendering.
Yep, i do exactly this very often. The only addition i'll make is that as each render starts, i'll go into Windows Task Manager and set that Vegas window's priority down to "below normal". This lets the windows i haven't started rendering in yet respond faster. It's important to do this when you're starting up 12 or 15 renders instead of just 4.
